Cleaning a Chenille TabIecIoth.

Almost the only safe means of clean
ing a chenille tablecloth will be by
dry-cleaning 1t: Use quart Of bran
or cornmeal, mixed with handful of
scorching it, then rub it well into all
parts of the cloth just as with suds.
Finally roll up with the meal scattered
thickly over all parts and put into a
closed box to stand for day or two,
then repeat the process and the sec,
ond time should show a decided ims
provement effected in the cloth. For
any stains or obstinate soil marks
sponge with little alcohol or ben
zine. This will greatly improve the
cloth, though it may not make 1t like
new.

WIRELESS AND

Make Trip Through Coun-
try, Enjoying Camp Life
on the Way

tuesday evening Colonel r. z.
Davidson and about dozen students
from the Northwestern Military &
Naval academy of Lake Geneva. Wis
passed through Burab0o on the last
lap of a trip of 500 miles in automo-
blles. The journey had been from the
academy to Chicago, Rock Island
DesMoines, Minneapolis, La Crosse,
Sparta, Baraboo, M adison and home.
The automobiles were mounted with
wireless apparatus and guns. Those
who came to Baraboo comprised the
signal crops of the school. The young
men were alert and instantly Eoboyed
the commands of their superior officer.
When they stopped at garage there
was no hurrying for drinks or novel
ties as is usally the case with military
young men, but every one remained
with his Car ready to be of any service.
1t will be recalled there was fight
in the legislature over establishing
| five mile dry zone around portion Of
Lake Geneva that the school might
move from Highland Park, ILL.,, TO
Wisconsin. The law was finally
p 1ssed and the school moved to this
state. Col. Davidson, who is super
intendent of the institution, says
they have an ideal location, the lake
furnishing fishing and ice sports in
winter and plenty of diversion in the
summer. ALI the pupils are selected
with care.
Mr.. Davidson was in the Wisconsin
State university with the sons of John
M. True and enquired for the family.
They left Baraooo about five O'Clock
expecting to reach the school, about a
hundred miles away, before retiring
time. If they could not they would
camp on the way.

Making Cider Vinegar

It is not enough to simply grind the
apples into cider. then roll under the
shade of tree or into the cellar and
patiently wait till the vinegar Is made.
To make good vinegar the apples
should be about ripe But not mellow,
and when ground and pressed the
cider should be strained into clean
barrels.
While apples should be clean, It Is
not best to wash them before grinding
and no water should be used in the
cider.
It IS we'll known that the changing
from sweet cider to vinegar begins as
soon as the juice leaves the apple, and
continues through the various stages
from six to eighteen months, the time
depending on conditions and treat
ment.
If the cider is kept in a warm cellar
or other convenient place and q cake
for every five gallons it will hasten
completed within two or three months
Not until then should vinegar
mother be added, but when 1t loses
the bitter taste and begins to get sour
it should be racked off and the barrel
washed out or it should be put into
clean barrel and some old vinegar
and mother put In.
The bung should be left out all of
the time till the vinegar is made, and
a piece of cloth tackled over the hole
to keep out the flies and dirt.
When conditions are ideal. the bar

SEED CORN MUST BE PROPERLY DRIED

Some data regarding storage, germ
nation and resulting stand Of several
farmers corn scattered widely over the
central section of the country may
prove helpful to our readers.
The fall of the beginning Of the tests
was ideal in regard to ripening and
curing seed corn. Tho average germ
nation Of the corn secured then was
1874 per cent. It ranged from 90 per
cent for kiln dried corn to 3S per cent
for corn taken from cribs.
The following summer the section
suffered a severe drouth-with an
early frost. Much of the crib corn
widowed. The effect on subsequent
termination was very marked, the
average for the next spring being only
55.5 per cent.
The, lowest termination, IL ror
cent, was that of corn standing in the
shock during the winter. Corn cured
made a good average, and corn fire.
dried terminated. 80 per cent.
A study Of the records Of many tests
shows that seed corn dried with arti-
fetal heat in we'll ventilated rooms
during the first two or three weeks
after picking, gave the highest germ
ination--an average of 91.5 per cent
for the two years. Next TO this Is corn
cured in furnace rooms with open
windows where the heat was applied
Immediately after bringing the corn
from the field. Well ventilated rooms
with more than one window gave

..DRY FARM1NG.n

Dry-farming Is free from mystery Of
any kind. It's principles are vital in
any region of small rainfall. and valu-
able in any country where drouth Is
even occasional. Any farmer on any
soil and in any climate can increase
his yields per acre, the quality Of his
crop and his bank account by the con-
tinued practice Of this new farm
method.
"Dry-farming' does not mean farm
Ing without water It does mean that
the farmer can grow good crops on
less water than most people think Is
needed. and that. through proper til
lage methods he can reduce evapora-
ton and can establish practical
storage reservoir In the soil which will
hold the rainfall until he Is ready to
use 1t. BY this means drouth can be
conquered or its effects reduced In any
country of the world.

GOOD RESULTS FROM THINNING APPLES
Pruning Out Crowded Branches and Twigs, While
Helpful, Will not Prove Substitute for the
Thorough Thinning of the Fruit.

to save the fruit crop from total de.
struction.
It Is frequently suggested that prun.
Ing may be successfully substituted for
thinning, but while restriction by cut.
ting away portion Of the branches
will assist materially in relieving the
burden Of fruit to be supported by the
tree, 1t by no means solves the prob.
lem Of relieving clustered, over.
crowded conditions on individual
branches. A branch may bring to
uniform perfection a dozen specimens
OF fruit If such specimens be evenly
distributed on the branch; but, If the
dozen specimens be grouped into two
or three crowded clusters, the chances
are ten to one that the specimens will
be much lacking in uniformity and
that considerable percentage Of loss
will be sustained not only from under
sized, Uniformed fruits, but from in
sect infestation which a clustered.
crowded condition especially favors
The purpose of removing a part OF
the fruit should not merely embody an
effort to increase the total marketable
productl of the trees, although this
highly gratifying result is not infre-
Quently the outcome OF the most
thorough and courageous work in
thinning; but the aim should be, "a
to remove all defective specim ems and
GU to reduce the number Of fruits on
