REGULATION WEIGHT.

There is only one way to regulate
body weight, and that is by the nat
ural method-by diet, exercise, bath.
ing, etc.-by Authorization and elimina.
ton. The nostrums advertised to take
off flesh without change Of diet are all
dangerous. Be sure Of that, and avoid
them. The same diet that will put
flesh on a thin man will take flesh of
a fat one In other words, natural
diet produces a natural condition OF
the body.

RAISING BROILERs ON FARM
Exceedingly Large Demand for Light
weight Chickens Of From Two
TO Two-and-Half Pounds.

(3y A. c. SMITH. Professor OF Poultry
Husbandry, University Farm, st. Paul,
Mimi
The early chick is the most profit
able, yet there is profit on the late
chick provided it is not too late,
There is an exceptionally large de-
mand for lightweight roasters and
broilers Of from two to two and half
pounds This furnishes a splendid
opportunity for those who wish to rear
and market chicks without being
obliged to house them. Hatched in
May or June, they should easily weigh
two or two and one-half pounds before
October l. If especially well fed, they
should reach that weight still earlier.
This is the most favorable time to
hatch and raise chickens, as the parent
stock has been out of doors long
enough to acquire splendid health and
remarkable vigor. Eggs, If sensibly
set, should hatch almost perfectly and
the chicks should live and thrive.
The equipment required is very
small--a good-sized box or barrel.
covered with waterproof paper, set in
a dry sheltered place may be used
both to set the hen In and to house the
brood, though the barrel is rather un-
suitable for the brood after the chicks
are weaned, especially if there are
many Of them.
Both hen and chicks should be al
lowed free range after the chicks are
a few days old, to pick up large
share Of their living, but in addition
it is a good plan to feed them at night,
and to give them all they will eat as
they will grow faster and will either
be marketable at an earlier age or
weigh more, and consequently bring
more, at a given time. Chickens Of
this weight will not, 1t is true, bring
fortune, but 1t must be remembered
that they cost very little to rear. The
fact that the earlier they are market
able, the better the price, should not
be lost sight Of. For this reason It
pays to feed them a little where there
is not an opportunity to pick up album
dance Of food.

I-ondon and tie Lumber

London is the most conservative city
in Europe. if not in the world. 1t loves
its lumber. You may still see those
notices attached to lamp posts which
announces Standing for Four Hack
ney Carriages, or whatever the num-
Der may be, though for ten years lin
one case, to my own knowledge for
twenty-fve) no vehicles Of any kind
have stood there. Perhaps 1t is as we'll
that these relics should remain; they
are tiny part of our social history.
They will probably remain when we
are flying to dinner or the theater in
omni-aeros. By that time people won't
know what hackney carriage" meant,
and there will be discussions in the
Notes and Queries of the period.
For each generation hands down to the
next certain nuts to crack.

CROP or IMPORTANCE
Always Good Demand in Large

Considerable Stimulus Given Growing

similar to the Georgia collards.
The cabbage crop is a very import

by farmers and truck gardeners for

EnoIand's Oldest Bowling Green.

Which is our Oldest recreation
There are not wanting psychologists
who profess to be able to trace refer
ences to football and baseball on
Egyptian moral tablets. However,
when it comes to actual records, the
fine old English game Of bowls would
appear to be as old as any.
Southampton. Eng, has records
showing that one of the local bowling
greens was in existence in 1899.
Many interesting customs are ASSOC
ciated with the game on this historic
green. Every summer fire jack"

knighthood is conferred on the win
ner, who kneels in the center Of the
green while the other players gather
round him and the master touches
him with sword and dubs him sir. 4"

Use Of Resistant" Cabbage Seed Saves

the crop grown by those who cater
to these demands. The prices vary
greatly according to the season and
location. The price per ton, as indi-
Gated by fifteen correspondents cater.
ing to the trade Of different cities,
varies from S. to SIS. During the
past few years, considerable stimulus
has been given the growing of cab
bage through the sauerkraut factor
les. many Of which contract at fair
prices for the entire output Of cab
bage.
Many growers maintain that q cab
bage crop Of nine tons per acre is
better paying crop than corn, wheat
or oats under fair yields.
In some sections near the large
markets, many growers have been
driven out OF business, so far as
cabbage culture is concerned, through
the ravages Of certain fungus diseases
affecting this plant. Much hope is
entertained OF the possibility of secur-
ing disease-resistant strains.
This Is q work that requires several
years for positive results. Sometimes
1t Is desirable even after securing
resistant plants to cross-breed these
with marketable strains, as 1t is often
the case that resistant strains or va
rieties are not high yielding or Of
desirable quality. 1t would even seem
profitable for growers to continue
desirable strains by selecting those of
the proper type and yielding capacity.
The practice Of purchasing seeds from
promiscous retailers often proves a
risky business. One need be no
specialist to note that many irregular
types, and low quality, poor yielding
strains are to be found throughout
the cabbage districts. This difficulty
can be remedied only by purchasing
from reliable seed houses, or by the
growing of seed from carefully Sc
lected, home grown stock.
Prof. L. r. Jones of Wisconsin has
found that various commercial fer
tilizers, as well as soil disinfectants,
are wholly useless as preventive agents
for the control OF this disease in in
fected soil. For several seasons he
has turned his attention chiefly to-
ward the breeding Of resistant strains
and reports most substantial prog
ress in this direction. In fields planted
with commercial varieties in 1910,
where the disease caused almost an
entire loss, the few naturally resistant
heads we're selected and seed raised
therefrom in 1911. While CONNER
cial seed planted on infected fields
gave in 1912 only 81 per cent. of living
plants, the cabbage grown from the
resistant" seed developed So per cent.
live plants, over half Of which formed
heads. Seed produced from the best
head gave 9S per cent of properly ma
tured heads. These results show the
influence Of careful selection and indi-
cate clearly the great possibilities that
lie in the use of home grown seed of
disease resistant strains.
