sled only further progress for the ru-
raj community of the state.
THE county agent work. the club

the teaching of agriculture in the ru-

the trend of the times-insistence
upon the spreading of the gospel OF
better agriculture TO old and young
alike. SO that its benefits may be last

Farmers appreciate the value of
the principles being taught by Pur-

that the experiments at the Purdue
experiment station will show methods
by which their own crops can be in
creased. In a recent contest in RAN

The epicure has long been wont to

may be found in the fields or wood

that they are unfit to eat. These are
the common puffballs, which occur in
this section of the country in great
Drofusion, both of species and OF in
dividuals. They range in size from
:he little fellows about the size of a
pea to the monsters as big as a peck
measure or even larger; and all of
them are not only edible. but, with the
exception of some of the small forms
which grow on decaying wood and
absorb its flavor, they are also deli

For the farmer or Other rural dwell
er who has an opportunity to gather
them. puffballs offer great many adj
vantages over the much more highly
esteemed mushroom. In the first place,
they are in many cases much larger
and much more abundant, so that il is
much easier TO collect good mess.

two or three days or even more. The
most important advantage. however.

He urges that grade horses replace

ton of community associations Will
greatly facilitate the promotion of
horse-breeding, and the encourage

by prizes at county fairs for pure

The evil effects which result from
the use of unusual sires and dams, and
the transmission of hereditary dis
eases is especially emphasized. II
should be easily possible to increase
the value of Wisconsin horses at least
SO per head during the next five
years, the author points out, by the
use of sound stations and mares, and
this would mean an addition of at
least $7,000,000 to the total value OF
horse stock OF the state.

Puffballs are ready to use as soon

When we consider the fact that In
