HOW TO GROW H0RSERADISH
Crop is Cut in Fall, Small Roots Re.
moved and Arranged Into Sets
Four TO Six Inches Long.

Horseradish is commonly grown
from sets, and not from seed. Some
claim they have best success growing
it as a second crop after the early
cabbage, beets, etc. The crop is dug
in the fall, the small roots removed
and cut into sets four to six inches
long.
The top end is cut square and the
bottom slanting, so as to make no
mistake in planting. These are tied
in bundles and kept over winter in
sand.
IN the spring, after the cabbages
arc set out, a row Of horseradish is
set in between the cabbage rows.
Small holes are made with a light
crowbar or long stick and the sets
dropped in and covered two or three
inches deep, so that they do not come
up until July first
Any deep, rich soil, well drained.

BIRD SANCTUARY IN ORCHARD
Farmers and Fruit Growers Urged to
Plant Trees TO Provide Nesting
Places for the Robin.

One hundred and seventy-six species
OF insects attack the apple tree, while
apple-producing states spend as high
as SS,OO0,000 for spraying trees to keep
down the codling moth. Instead of put
ting poison (which often kills the
birds), on your trees, why not encour-
age these tireless little workers to
come and rid your fruit trees of insect
pests? Every orchard should be a
bird sanctuary. What are you doing
to make safe refuge of yours? In re-
turn for shelter and protection your
feathered friends will brighten your
little world with their beautiful plum
age, while working every hour in the
day for you, and sing glad songs of
thanksgiving while they work.
The Liberty Bell Bird club of the
Farm Journal says that the destructive
insect invasion is not caused alto
gether by the killing of the birds them
selves who would eat the insects. but
largely because the farmer has cut
down the trees and shrubbery, depriv-
ing his former little neighbors of their
nesting places without providing 9TH
ers. 1t is urging the farmers and fruit

growers to plant those trees and
shrubs which will entice the foraging
robin away from his favorite cherry
tree, and yet maintains that he is en-
titled to a little of even this choice
fruit in return for all the ravening fruit
pests he devours. 1t claims that he
will not, however, bother the cherries
if he has Russian mulberries which
ripen at the same time. This tireless
forager also prefers chokeberry, holly
elder, sour-gum, shadberries. wild cher
ries, wild grapes, green brier and
smilax to cherries. He is such gen.
tleman robber that a bird-bath has
been known to lure him away from his
fayorite mulberry. The robin likes to
be near neighbor to man and that he
is more obliging and honest one than
is generally believed is shown by his
propensity to rid farmers cabbage

FILLER FOR CoNCRETE-WoRK
Rough Stones Of Almost Any charae-
ter, Found In Almost Any Section
Of Country Are Favored.
Dy H. H. sHEPARD)

IN any section of the country where
rough stones of almost any character
can be secured and hauled as cheaply
as sand and gravel. it will pay to use
them as filters for concrete-work
A neighbor of ours has built barn
foundation by using rough stones as
hllers, with the result of saving fully
one-half the cost of construction.
On our own farm rough flint stones
all the way from the size of walnut
up to as large as a peck measure are
TO be had with only the trouble of
picking them up
These rough stones We are using
in all of our concrete construction, ex.
cept for surfacing The space they
take up saves sand. gravel and ee-
ment, with resulting wall or floor
as solid and firm as one of all finer
material
Using rough stones as filler in solid
concrete construction IL similar to
laying brick or stone in mortar. The
only difference is that forms are
used, and that the stones are all hid
den when the work is finished. Sand
and cement are all that is needed, al
though gravel, too. may be used in
the wet mixture.
Make the forms as usual for any
kind of concrete-work. and shovel in
the wet mixture of sand, gravel and
cement. On this soft mixture place
layer of the rough stones of all sizes
and shapes.
They must be clean of soil, so that
the cement mixture will stick to them
Cover the layer of stones with more
of the wet cement mixture. and
spade" the sides to make smooth
surfaces and to settle the mixture
among the rocks.
Use a rather slushy concrete, SO
that 1t will more easily run among
the rocks for filing vacant spaces and
for firm binding. Continue the proc
ess layer after layer till the wall is
finished.

GRADING AND SORTING EGGS
Every Year There Is Loss of Millions
Of Dollars In Product Because of
Haphazard Methods.
(Ry NJ. HAsTINGs0


Eggs are among the most difficult
of food products to grade. This is be-
cause each egg must be considered
separately, and because the actual
substance of an egg cannot be ex-
amined without destroying the egg.
, From external appearance, eggs can
be selected for size. color. cleanliness
of shell and freedom from cracks.
This is the common method of grading
in early spring when the eggs are uni
formly of good quality. Later in the
season the egg candle is used While
any kind of light may be used, 16-
candlepower electric lamp is the most
desirable. The light is inclosed in a
box or tin cylinder. in which are made

5EARM5NOTES

Fruit and poultry raising go well to-
gether.
Every owner of colt should look
well to the care Of the feet.
Selling the choicest of the wheat is
a poor way to select seed grain.
Bees wintered out of doors should
be where the sun win shine on the
hive.
Bad shoeing causes many horses to
travel badly, but shoeing is not wholly
to blame.
Late chickens sometimes do very
well, but they require more care than
early ones.
The poultry that is having the run
of the orchard now is serving well
their day and generation.
The foal that is being weaned
should be watered twice each day.
Horses of all ages must be watered
frequently and regularly If they are
to do well
Before the snow falls, it is a good
plan to 90 through the orchard and
with a coarse rake, gather up ali dis
eased or rotten apples or other fruit
left on the ground. and destroy them.
In planting fruit trees for family
use, select the varieties that appeal
to the palate Of the home folks, but
for the markets select those varieties
that keep best, and are in greatest
demand.

alone amid gloom, uncertainty, appre-
hension and poverty following the
ravages of war A century ago, the
Federal Union was an experiment in
government that, in the minds of
many, was foredoomed to failure
There was no nation; rather a loose
confederation of hostile sections and
jealous states. 1t was out of the
struggles and sufferings of this very
war that the American nation was
born. Today, 10OOO0,O0O Americans,
in identity of political and social
ideals, language and institutions, pre-
sent a picture of the most thoroughly
nationalized country of which history
has record.
But in a hundred other ways did
the Thanksgiving of 1914 differ from
the one to be celebrated this year.
OF course there were the funda-
mental essentials of turkey, pumpkin
pie and cranberry sauce; there were
the homegathering of relatives and
the reunion of the family around the
old hearthstone. But beyond that all
has changed with the passage of the
| fleeting years. Could a boy or a girl
of today, by some ledgerdemain of
time, be transported back to one of
those old fashioned Thanksgiving day
of century ago, he or she would
think they were being robbed of their
holiday rights. Even the wealthiest
people of those old days could not
have on their Thanksgiving table
many Of the things found today on
the tables of the humblest citizen.
| In fact, there was a great poverty
/ of vegetable variety on the Thanks
| giving table a century ago No as
! paragus, no sweet potatoes, no string
beans no corn, no green peas, and SO
on down the attractive list that consti-
tutes the appetizing trimmings of the
! Thanksgiving table of today. The tin
can era had not yet dawned, and it's
possibilities of smashing seasonable
monotony were undreamed of even by
1 epicures.
And there was the same poverty in
Thanksgiving fruit The list practi-
cally started and ended with apples
and of kind that most farmers now
feed only to their hogs or leave to
rot on the ground Grapefruit was
word not yet invented; oranges would
| have been worth their weight in gold;
and the banana was to await many
years for its introduction to the
American housewife. Nor would it
have been possible for the voracious
youngster of that day to gorge him
self with luscious grapes and delicate
raisins. Pineapple was another un-
known word OF course there were
nuts, but only of native varieties.
Almonds, Brazil nuts, pecans and the
English walnuts, without which no
Thanksgiving table of today would be
considered complete, were then I'M
known Injuries.
The farmer of that day was a slave
of the season and the produce of his
| toll was governed strictly by the cal
endar. There we're no hothouses to
force fruit and vegetables out of sea-
son. The good people of those days
would have considered it almost sacri-
legeI an dLteLhpC " A4ApAOfV Oh eAAO
divine plan of things. A request for
strawberries or cucumbers at Thanks
giving would be equivalent to an ap-
pIication for admission to an asylum
for the insane.
But the difference does not end with
comparison of the eatables of the
