WHEAT FOR HOGS
Field Damaged Wheat Good for
Hogs Even if First-C Class
Grain Is Too High.


The grade and market price of
part of the 1915 wheat crop has
been so much reduced sprouting
in the shock that it is not too
high for hog feed. Recent
feeding tests by L. A. Weaver
at the Missouri Expert
ment Station have shown that
wheat fed alone gives greater
gains in ~fattening hogs than
either corn alone or corn mixed
with wheat. The addition of
tankage to the ration resulted
in still more economical gains,
especially during the early part
of the feeding period.
If ground, the wheat is better
digested and three pecks pro-
duce as much gain as a bushel
of unground wheat, both being
soaked.

sERsIA,s LACK OF NURSES.

Serbia is said to be the one country
in the civilized world in which there
ire no women over twenty years Of
age unmarried. This is given as the
reason why there is such a lack Of
nurses for the Red Cross work Of the
Serbian army. Not only are the
women all married and engaged in
caring for their families, but the
large majority Of them live on small
farms and are busy producing food
for the nation as well as for the

Fall Pasture.

The clover crop makes about
half its growth during the last
thirty days of the grazing peri
cd, so it can be more heav-
lily grazed at that time than
earlier. Care should be taken,
however, not to leave it too short
for the winter, as enough foliage
should remain to hold the snow
and insure a good early start in
the spring. =
Rye sowed at the proper time
is valuable for fall and early
spring pasture and incidentally
prevents soil-washing during the
winter. 1t will save many feed
bills and play an important part
in keeping up the milk fowl,

DRYING POINTERS.
Keen Cider Sweet.

Cider may be kept either per-
fectly sweet or with whatever
bead" the taste of the user sug-
gests, according to Miss Carrie
Pancoast of the Missouri College
of Agriculture. It may be can
ned Immediately or allowed to
stand for a few days, but in
either case the method used in
cludes filling fruit jars with the
cider and adding a tablespoonful
of sugar to each quart, if de-
sired. Place the rubber and top
in position and tighten partially,
in case of glass jars; or if tin is
used, cap and tip the cans.
An ordinary wash tub or SINH
lar vessel may be used in steri-
lizing. Laths or thin boards
should be laid across the bottom
to avoid heating the glass too
rapidly and cracking it. Put in
water enough to fiji the vessel an
inch or two above the jars, heat
to boiling, put the jars in, and
let boiling continue for ten min
utes. Then remove, tighten the
covers, and invert in order tC
test the lids while cooling.
Other processes that may b,
used involve sterilizing for eigh-
minutes with a water seal outfit
for four minutes under fv,
pounds pressure with a steam
pressure outfit, or for two min
utes with an aluminium pressur,
cooker.

DR. SEED CORN NOW
Freezing With This Moisture in
the Kernel Endangers Next
Years Crop.


Drying seed corn is even
more important than selection
this fall" says ]. c. Hackleman,
of the Missouri College of Agri-
culture. If frozen with as much
moisture as it seems likely to
contain when the first freezing
comes it may be almost worth
less as seed next spring. To
avoid danger from early frost,
select the most mature ears in
the field and dry thoroughly at
once. If a neighbours corn of
seed variety ripens earlier ar
range to pick in his field. Seed
grown in the locality in which
it is to be planted is always to be
chosen in preference to that
shipped in from a distance.
Air-drying in the sunshine is
slower but safer unless freddy
ing is absolutely necessary to
secure safety from freezing.
Well-dried corn will stand anv
freeze it is likely to get in Mis-
souri, but the danger from too
rapid fre-drying is only less
than that from freezing.
The corn is not safe for storage
or exposure to cold weather quite
as soon as the appearance of the
kernels might indicate because
there is to much more moisture
in the cob and the cob is SO
much slower in drying than the
kernels. Be sure not to store
while there is still moisture
enough in the cob to cause heat
or molding.
Each ear should be so placed
in wire or Stat racks, or so hung
that no two ears will hang to-
gether so as to hold moisture
and cause holding. The storage
place should be airy and well
ventilated. It should not be
closed until drying is completed,
unless cold weather n~ecessitates
closing. A little fire may be
used to hasten drying.
DRYING POINTERS.
Dry in sunshine and fresh air.
Dry before danger of freezing.
Use fire very carefully, if at all.
Dry the cob thoroughly as well
as the kernel.
To avoid heating or molding,
let no ear touch the next ear.

A HISTORIC PULLMAN
Used by President Garfield and
Was His Funeral Car.

From the New York Sun.
An old fashioned Pullman car,
so quaint in it's appearance that
it attracts the immediate atten-
ton of all who see it, has been
standing on a side track of the
Oil Fields and Sante Fe Railroad
in clifton for the past ninety
days, says the Tulsa World. It
is entirely of steel and is said to
have been the first ever built.
This car was completed during
1879 and was turned over to
President James A.. Garfield af-
ter his Inauguration. He made
frequent use of it during his
residence in the White House,
and following his assassination
the car was transformed into a
funeral car, carrying the Presi-
dents body back to Washington.
At the present time it is the
property of Lea Blondin.
Mr.. Blondin says he had own
ed the car some time before he
learned its interesting history.
He was on a Western trip and
had pulled into Pocatello, Idaho,
for a week stand. Immediately
the car attracted the attention
of a car inspector, James Muir
ray, who asked permission to
visit it and remain with it as
much as his employment would
permit. This was granted after
Blondin learned Murray's story.
1t developed that Murray was
one of the men who had worked
on the construction of the car
during the '7Os, and the period
of construction, he said, covered
four years and two months, the
final work being done late in
1879. Murray told of the car
being turned over to President
Garfield and said that since then
it had been lost to the world, as
far as he could learn.
The last time the old car was
on official exhibition was at
Chicago during the Columbian
Exposition. In railroad cir
cles the car has always been
known as the Mildred. That, it
is understood, was its name
: when it was the first car in the
, land. It was the first car also
to be equipped with a vestibuIe
platform, or spring platform,
something entirely unknown
prior to its construction. On
E the rear end of an up to date pas
5 senger train of to-day it has the
5 appearance Of a cork. It was
! built to be freproof, wreckproof
t and dustproof, and it is venti-
e lated from both the top and bot
! tom.
