WOMEN MAKE MONEY
BY RAISING CRESS
Popular Salad Plant More Valued
in These Days Than Ever
Before-HoW to Plant.
(By MAUDE HYMERs.)

The woman owning bit of ground,
across which runs a stream of water,
is fortunate indeed! especially If the
home lies within daily driving distance
to the city.
For this low, moist ground, consid-
cred usually as so much waste space,
may be made to yield dollars to the
woman capable of grasping the posi-.
bilities of cultivating water cress.
This delectable salad plant is moro
valued in these days than ever before.
AS the first step, have the stream
cleared, ready for planting the cress.
This may be done by plants or seeds.
either of which may be procured from
any reliable dealer. Better buy the
plants.
Set two rows the entire length Of
the ditch. Pick up six or ten stalks,
lay them at the bottom of the ditch
near the side, so the tops will be above
the water, then two feet from there set
another bunch of plants on the other
side, anchoring the plants by placing
pile Of earth on the roots.
II the plants must be homegrown
from seed, make seed bed near the
spring in soft, wet ground, but do not
let the water run over it. Scatter the
seed and press into the mud with
spade. Transplant the plants any
time when large enough to handle.
When the cress has grown and
spreads over the top of the, ditch, have
it moved close to the top of the water,
clearing away all clippings, SO they
will not choke the stream. When it
grows up again fresh and crisp you
will be ready to market your product
Place a plank across the ditch on
which to sit, gather the cress with the
left hand and cut with sharp knife.
having the stalks about three inches
long
Bunch neatly, fastening the stalks
with a rubber band and cutting off
Sprinkle lightly and keep
from the sun until sold.
Cress may be sold for shipment, for
in the home market, or
to individual customers, the price per
dozen or per bunch varying with diff
ferent localities.
If the cress is crisp and tender the
matter of marketing will take care of
itself and the returns will be sufficient
and sure.

OVERLOOK VALUE OF
HOMEGROWN FOODS
Unless Foundation Is Well Laid
Business Will Be Failure
Practice Rotation.

BY following along the line Of sci
entific' feeding, many dairymen have
overlooked the value of homegrown
dairy foods, and formed habit of go
ing to the mill and exchanging their
milk check for protein foods.
On the dairy farms a short system
of crop rotation renews old fields,
puts all crops nearer to the manure
and fertilizer used, increases the va
riety of feeds, adds to their value
through an increase in their protein
content, and to their palatability and
ease of digestion.
Food and food production for the
dairy lies at the foundation of sue
cessful dairying. Unless the founda-
ton is we'll laid the business will be a
failure.
Dairying today is the leading branch
of farming, bringing to the farmer the
most money and leaving the land in
the best possible condition to continue
its production.

(By L. r. JoHNSTON.)


AS test the turnip year after year,
I think more highly of it's value as a
farm product that can be put to many
uses. On the table it is wholesome
and good and ranks after potatoes and
cabbage.
AS a feed l value 1t highly. There
is no herbivorous animal that does not
relish it. The horse is often an ap-
parent exception, but with little ef-
fort he can be taught to acquire the
taste.
1t ID usual to say that turnips make
the milk taste, but we are feeding
them once day-at noon-to our Jer-
sey cow and selling the butter to
pleased customers. No taste of tur-
nips is distinguishable.
We feed from peck to half
bushel. When one is dropped where
the hens can get it, it never remains
long; during the winter the poultry
will eat large quantities of turnips,
and they thus cheaply supply the
green vegetable ration so essential to
good health.
Up to the last of February pulled
up tops and roots from the patch and
threw them into the poultry lot, where
the hens would crowd around to get a
share, and it was surprising to see
how much they would eat, although
well fed on mash and grain.
AS to the horses, began by tossing
turnip into the feed box as l passed
them, which at first they would only
sniff at, and nose around, but it was
not long until noticed the turnips had
Meade County news. [volume] (Meade, Kan.) 1900-1918, 1915-05-20

disappeared by next feed time, and
soon the horses were ready to eat
them with relish.
The hogs, too, will eat them but not
with any avidity if otherwise we'll fed.
For the hogs I prefer to cook them If
possible and mix them with shorts and
bran. Thus prepared they are eagerly
eaten.
We also stir them, cooked soft, in
the poultry mash of a morning.
Last year our turnips were raised
along fence row which was formerly
occupied by row of old peach trees
and blackberries It was thoroughly
grubbed, planted to early potatoes and
then sown to turnips. It made a fine
crop.
We frst pulled and pitted all the
good-sized ones, but left a large num-
Der of small ones. AS the autumn was
mild, these little ones continued to
grow until many of them were as
large as the first crop.
In December we began pulling these
and feeding tops and all to chickens
and COW and horses and we are able
to continue this, with a few days
skipped, for over six weeks.
Before this the cutoff tops of those
first pitted furnished feed for sur.
prising time, remaining fresh and
green in piles on the ground.
All this has been said without men.
ton of the market value of turnip
which by reason CT its great yield is
often considerable. l have seen them
grow at the rate of 500 bushels to the
acre.
