LIME REQUIRED FOR ONIONS
Soil Is Made Looser and Therefore
More Productlve-Success At
tributed to Substance.

Much of my success in growing big
onions, many specimens weighing a.
pound and half apiece, / attribute to
a free application of lime to the land
in spring, says the Farm and Fire
side. Likewise, believe that similar
applications, just before sowing the
seed Of the Portugal onion early in
August have helped me to get a re-
markably fine stand and growth.
I have used manures right along,
year after year. The land is rich. The
fine and almost spontaneous growth
of clover on any patch that is LEFT
to itself for while would hardly show
that there is any need of lime. Yet,
owning perhaps to faulty drainage. the
land often turns up rather soggy, with
close texture Lime seems to make
it closer, and therefore more produce
tive.

Uncle Sam Has High SaIaried Seal Maker

Whenever the government wants
a new seal for one of its bureaus or
for some new territorial possession,
an official calls Hunt up over the tel

Whereupon Heraldist Hunt buckles
right down to work and turns out a
new-fangled seal th@t everybody
gazes at admir- gly, and tells about
its history. and how it happened to
be that way.
The coat-of-arms of Porto Rico
was designed by Mr.. Hunt. He also
designed the coat-of-arms of the Phil
ippine islands. Again, he is the one
who designed the seal of the depart
ment of commerce and labor, said BY
experts to be at once the most sim
pie and most symbolically striking of
all those used by the government.
And. finally, it was he who designed
the gorgeous combined seal and coat.

FOR LUNCH OR DINNER

Pressed Beans and Sausage Make, an
Excellent Dish to Serve at Either
Meal-spanlsh Ham and Eggs
Worth Trying.

Pressed Beans and Sausage.-Le
one pint pea beans soak over night:
wash. drain and cook until very ten
der, but not broken. In boiling water.
Put the beans In baking dish with sau-
sage here and there. using about one
half pound sausage. Dissolve one Ia
blespoon salt in one pint boiling wa
ter and pour over the beans. adding
more If needed. Bake five or six
hours and serve hot with catsup or
any other table sauce.
Spanish Ham and Eggs.-Cut stale
bread into one-half inch slices and
soak until soft in one cup milk mixed
with one beaten egg. Fry delicate
brown, on a well-buttered griddle or
spider. Mix one cup Of minced left
over ham and one-third of minced left
crumbs with milk to moisten, or
with the remaining egg and milk.
Heat it and season with pepper.
Cook several eggs in water just be-
low the boiling point until firm enough
to keep in shape after removing the
shells. Put whole egg on two slices
placed side by side and serve at
once.
Cream of Celery Soup.-Wash and
cut into inch pieces one bunch of eel
cry, boil 1t in one pint of sailed water
until tender enough to mash and
strain; melt one tablespoon of gelatir
until smooth and stir into one pint
of hot milk or cream; then add to
the celery, with salt and pepper, and
boil all together for five minutes. A
few drops of onion juice improves this
dish for some people. A good and
easy way to get onion juice is to rub
the onion, after the outside skin has
been removed, on rough crater.
Four to eight drops gives a sugges-
ton, without the positive onion flavor.

TWO ROOT SYSTEMS OF CORN
Deep Cultivation Prunes Feeding
Branches and Lessons Ability to
Take Up Plant Food.

A knowledge of the root systems of
corn points out the kind of cultiya-
tion to be practiced. There are two
systems, the primary and tae second
airy, says the Breeders Gazette. The
primary roots are the fine, fibrous
roots, which almost completely fill the
top two feet of soil, crossing each 9th
er in the rows after the crop is half
grown. Deep cultivation prunes all
these feeding roots. lessons the abil-
ity of the plant to take up plant food
and moisture and results in the loss of
considerable water from the soil
through evaporation. Deep prepare
ton of the soil before planting and
shallow cultivation afterward is high
ly desirable. The day of blowing"
the corn crop is gone.
The secondary roots are the tough,
fibrous roots usually extending from
one of the lower nodes on the stalk
into the soil. The sole purpose of
these seems to be to act as braces for
the plant to have hold 1t upright.

BENEFICIAL EFFECT OF LIME
Substance Improves Sandy Soils by
Making Them More Compact and
Retentive of Moisture.
(By B. H. HITE.)

Nothing in agricultural science OF
practice may be mentioned with more
assurance than the beneficial effect Of
lime on easily puddled stiff clay soils.
This is so nearly matter of common
knowledge, the wonder is that anyone
will worry along with such soils year
after year, and even from one genera
ton to another, while the possible in
crease in yield in single year will
often pay for the necessary lime.
Lime may improve loose sandy soils
by making them more compact and
more retentive of moisture. For this
purpose some form of carbonate of
lime is usually recommended, and in
much smaller quantities than for clay
soils. Clay soils will stand more lime

70 PREVENT CRACKED HEELS
Trouble May BE Avoided II Manure 10
Not Allowed to Accumulate and
Urine is Drained.
(By DIR. Fl. PRESTON KosKINS, Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul)

10y LII. II. f'EEEs0lON nO0h4X%Os - 4A~
versity Farm, st. Paul)
Scratches, also called cracked heels
or mud fever, can be prevented by
careful stable management, Cases
are rarely met with in well kept
barns, but are often seen In dirty.
poorly drained stables. Dryness and
cleanliness of the floor of the stall
are the two most important factors
in the prevention OF scratches.
Horses should not be allowed to
stand in piles of manure and decom-
posing urine. These irritate and in
flame the skin in the fold of the ankle
just below the fetlock. The skin then
becomes thickened, due to the infam-
nation and breaks or cracks In 1t ap-
pear and If allowed to go untreated
the condition grows gradually worse.
The affected area grows larger, the
cracks become deeper and the animal
is in an unsightly and painful condi-
ton.
Owners of horses can prevent the
trouble in the majority of cases by
doing two things. Do not allow man.
ure to accumulate behind your horses,
and see that your stalls are SO con-
structed that the urine will drain
away promptly. If your horses show
any tendency toward the condition ap-
ply small amount of carbolized vase
line, benzoinated lard. or zinc oxide
ointment, well rubbed into the af-
fected parts. These remedies will
soften the skin and protect It from
external moisture and irritating sub
stances During wet weather or when
the roads and streets are muddy or
slushy, extra precaution should be
taken to prevent the condition. Do
not wash cracked heels, as water ana
rubbing only aggravate the condition.
