fLU"ERs WITH FOOD VALUE
Men Of Science Beginning to Thiak
That Possibly the World Has
Overlooked Something.

; The food value of flowers is
matter just beginning to interest the
scientific world. Violets are said to
contain considerable nourishment.
They formed the basis of a refresh
ing drink, and in other forms figured
conspicuously in the feasts of the
ancient Persians. The modern con-
fectioner crystallizes them in sugar.
The old Turkish CONNECTIONS made
of rose leaves are declared delicious
by those who have eaten them. A
number of cooks have discovered
that handful of rose petals imparts
a flavor of unpar lleled delicacy to
desserts of many kinds.
For those who do not care for
sweets the gayly colored nasturtium
offers delights to the palate. 1t may
be used as a filling for sandwiches,
mixed judiciously with other mate
rails in salad. Its delicious pungen-
cy appeals to the epicure, while ply.
sicians say it aids digestion.
A favorite italian dish now being
introduced into this country consists
of fried squash blossoms. When
properly prepared this food is both
appetizing and nourishing. The yell
low blossoms of the common field
pumpkin may be cooked in the same
way, and to some tastes are even
more pleasing.-Peoria Transcript,

MEN OF IMMENSE APPETITE
Remarkable Tales Told Of the vorae-
ity Of an English and a
German Glutton.

A Yorkshireman was staying at
the same hosiery with three other
visitors. He came down before the
others and sat down to breakfast and
began. Half an hour later the other
three were calling for their coffee,
toast and eggs. The waiter assured
them that they had all been served
at the appointed time, and it tram
spired later that the Yorkist had con-
sumed fifteen eggs and correspond
ing number of rashers, under the inn
preston that it was all meant for
himl
The Germans are VIGOROUSLY big
eaters, and are very much averse to
starving, London Answers states. 1t
is told of market porter in Berlin
making a bet that he would put
away six mutton chops, twelve eggs,
a goose, duck, six pounds of pota-
toes and twenty-five pounds of hay.
This commissariat was not for a
month. 1t was for one meal! Diff
culties were anticipated with the last
coarse, as the eater was a man and
not horse.
However, this ingenious man
solved the difficulty by calling for a
cigarette, after he had finished the
duck. He then set light to the hay,
pounded the ashes up with the pota.
toes, and swallowed the lot.

THEATRES EAST AND WEST
Oriental Places Of Amusement Have
Their Customs, as Have Those
of the Occident.

Oriental visitors to our theaters
think the performances very ludi-
crous, even if tragedy is being en-
acted. We reciprocate by thinking
that Chinese and japanese theaters
are run by crazy people, the customs
are so very peculiar.
In japanese theatcrs a singular
custom prevails of allowing a visitor,
for small fee, to stand up, and the
unfortunate individual behind him
has no right to demonstrate or to
rise and try to get a peep at the
stage. He-may hear, but he cannot
see.
Another popularity is that the ex-
travagantly disposed visitor may
purchase the right to sit upon the
stage wherever he likes, and the ac-
tors 60 on with their parts in appar-
ent Inconsistencies of his presence.
1t is not an unusual spectacle to
see broadsword combat fought all
around a visitor, who coolly enjoys
the scene and shows no disposition
to move.

Cost of Growing Oats in La.

The following table shows the
cost per acre of raising oats in
Louisina:
Breaking $3.50
Discing .35
Planting :, .25
Seed (23 bushels) 100
Binder harvesting (including
depreciation of machine) 20
Shocking 10
Hauling so
Threshing go bushels at
5 cents) LOO
The above figures are conser-
vative and would apply equally
as we'll where the labor is hired
or where the work is done by
the farmer himself. In either
case, the fguaes, based on q
30-bushel yield, represent a
charge against the crop. The
cost of a 40 or 75-bushel yield
would be increased very little,
only the items dealing with
harvesting and threshing being
affected.
Taking the average price re-
ceived by the grower in the
delta parishers in 1915, AZ cents
per bushel f. O. b. Shipping point,
the 30-bushel yield would be
worth $12.60 per acre. Deduct
ing the per acre cost, leaves a
net profit of $500 per acre.
1t makes no difference whether
this amount is called land rent
or profit. It is an income from
the land to the farmer.
Where the soils are adapted
to it, the only additional cost of
a crop of lespedeza following
oats would be seed and harvest
ing the hay.
The Louisina farmer can
always produce second crop
behind his oats, such as peas,
lespedeza, peanuts. Mexican
June corn and peas, soy beans.
The cost of breaking and cul-
tivating the land for the crops
to follow oats would be small as
the land will be clean and in
good condition to handle. Ma
