that suggestion of snugness which
seems a part of the little bungalow

their desire in this direction and cen

Perhaps the arrangement of rooms

SOME SIMPLE POTATO RULES
Prepare Roomy Seeded So az to
Give Plenty Of Room for Develop
ment Of the Tubers.

Here are some simple rules for get
ting the most from your potato crop.
Plant potatoes only about three inches
deep If the land is heavy or rains are
frequent. In average soils plant four
inches deep; in semiarid regions FIVE
inches, or even more. Prepare roomy
seeded so as to give plenty Of room
for the tubers to develop. Never APP
ply stable manure to land on which
potatoes are to be planted within q
year. Fresh manure seems to promote
potato disease.
Opinions differ as to the best ways
of seeding. Single eyes win usually
return the largest yield of a given
amount OF seed potatoes used, but
the best practical way is to cut me-
dium-sized potato into about three
pieces, each Of which has two or three
good eyes. Plant one piece in each
hill. Do not use large potatoes for
seed, as too large proportion of the
crop will be unmarketable.

HOW TO SELECT SEED BEANS
Where There Are No Clean Pods In
Your own Crop Try and Secure
Some From Your Nelghbor.

Get seed from your own crop II
possible. If there are no clean pods
in your own crop, try to secure clean
pods from more fortunate neighbor.
Select in the pod, not after thresh.
ing.
Pick pods free from all spots.
Spots on the pods mean that anthrac.
nose or bacterial blight may be hidden
in the seemingly clean bean.
Thresh selected pods separately.
Examine your threshed seed care
fully and throw out all doubtful look
ing beans, especially those that are
spotted or shriveled.
Rotate. Don't plant old bean ground
next year. Clean seed and rotation
are the best crop insurance.
II you have to buy your seed, make
sure that 1t has been selected by the
grower from disease-free pods. Ex-

mail box is sure to need Frightening
up. Whitewash on poultry or other
buildings win work wonders. Before
the days work is done, prompted by a
new pride in the place, 1t may be that
the farmer will display the farm name
near the main entrance to the place.
States. counties. communities.
churches, schools or farmers clubs
may proclaim farm clean up days. but
best OF all each individual farmer may
have his own.
Don't Neglect to Paint.
It is apparent to even the casual
observer that many property owners
let their rented houses. or houses for
rent. go too long without painting.
This neglect makes the houses look
unsightly but also hastens the day Of
decay. A little paint is q good invest
ment from every viewpoint. 1t pre-
serves the wood and 1t keeps the
houses rented. The writer visited an
Illinois town last spring and after
careful observation found not single
house which was not well and fairly
recently painted. There had just been
clean up and paint up campaign.
The impression left was one OF
thriving town where a man would like
to live and bring up a family. The
yards were well kept, with lawns,
flower beds and shrubbery, and each
householder seemed to vie with his
neighbor in making his place look at
tractive.

GOOD POULTRY ADVICE
Dry Quarters, Suitable Feed and
Exercise Are Essential.
All Perches Should Be Built on Same
ELECTROMAGNETIC Of Potash
Recommended for Roup and
Colds-Mustard Also Good.

Dry quarters, plenty of feed and
exercise are necessary for the get
ting of winter eggs.
The surplus milk will return larger
profit when fed to the hens than when
fed to the hogs.
The dust bath is essential TO good
winter management of hens.
All perches in the poultry house
should be built on a level. When
built one above another, step-fashion,
the hens will fight for the higher
perches with the result that some of
them will become injured or eggs will
be broken in them.
For roup and colds, dissolve per-
manganate of potash in the drinking
water until the water Is of a deep
wine color, and keep this before the
sick fowls all the time. Ground mus
tard, fed in the wet mash, is also good.
A teaspoonful to each ten or twelve
hens is about the. right quantity to
feed. A good way to insure an even
mixture is to dissolve the mustard in
water and use the water to moisten
the mash.
The droppings give an indication of
the health of the fowls. In health, the
droppings are OF sufficient consistency
to hold their shape. They are dark in
color, tapering off into grayish white.
If the droppings are soft and of yell
lowish or brownish color, an excessive
quantity Of fat-forcing foods in the

SANITATION OF IMPORTANCE
More Essential Than Rotation From
Standpoint Of Disease Control
Burn All Rubbish.

While It may not be possible in some
cases to rotate garden crops owing to
a lack Of available ground. sanitation
can always be practiced. and this from
the standpoint Of disease control is
probably more important than rota-
ton.
Practically all the diseases Of gar
den plants live over from one season
to the next on living or dead portions
OF the host plant.
These can be controlled only by the
burning Of all dead and waste plants.

MAKING MONEY WITH FRUITS
Products Properly Belong In Amy
Thorough System Of Mixed Farm
lng-Should Pay Well.

It is time for progressive farmers,
especially those with small places near
town, to get ready for money-making
with fruits. These products properly
belong in any thorough system of
mixed farming, and they can be made
to pay 5000 to $500 an acre net.
Small-fruit growing is peculiarly
adapted to those having large fam
ilies, Small fruits we'll planted in
perfectly straight rows and kept well
cultivated make a most pleasing pic
ture as well as a profitable crop. A
fruit garden connected with any home
can be made an attractive object.
Many people would be more pleased
with such garden than they would
with an art gallery, a church organ or
daily concerts.
From a commercial standpoint, for
the beginner, there is no crop that will
roll back the corners OF a mortgage
quicker than the strawberry bed If
enough is planted so that the whole
family and neighbors can be employed
especially in picking time. Fit the
ground early in April the same as for
corn. Mark one way as for corn; then
set the plants about sixteen inches
apart and cultivate as for corn, and
hoe whenever there is a sign of weeds
or crusty soil. It takes about seven
thousand plants per acre when set as
directed. When the blossoms appear
the first summer pinch them of. Do
not try to secure fruit until the sec
ond season.-Green's Fruit Grower.

New sterillzlnu Agent.

German scientists have found that
glycerin Is valuable sterilizing
agent. Various deadly germs, when
heated in 1t to a temperature Of 24s
degrees Fahrenheit. were completely
killed in one minute. This process Ia
particularly valuable for sterilizing
surgical instruments. for the reason
that the metal is not attacked nor is
the temper affected. Rubber tubes
can be sterilized in 1t, and. instead of
being injured. the elasticity OF those
which have become brittle is restored
by the treatment.

BALANCED RATION FOR HORSE
Condition Of Animal Depends Largely
on Treatment He Receives From
His Caretaker.

A hard-working horse, when he first
comes into the stable, should be given
a medium forkful Of well-cured mixed
hay and should not be given grain
until the hay is consumed. The food
win then be digested while he is rest
ing.
The proper food for a working
horse to make a balanced ration is:
Sound oats, four quarts; wheat bran
two quarts, and shelled corn, one quart
The grain feed may be reduced when
the horse is not working. For old
horses, crushed oats, mixed with wheat
bran, makes an excellent ration. For

ms LEAN UP and Paint Up"
has become nationwide
slogan In the interests OF
homes and towns beauti-
full since Allen w. Clark. st. Louis
publisher, organized the National
"Clean Up and Paint Up" campaign
bureau in May, 1912. Mr.. Clark, for
many years identified with the Ameri-
can paint trade, sought to arouse and
organize into a single national move
ment the "clean up" spirit which stirs
each spring in every normal man and
woman and nearly every thriving COM
munity.
The first year something like 1000
towns and cities conducted local clean
up and paint UP campaigns based on
plans suggested by the national bu-
reau. This number has increased each
year until In 1915 approximately 5000
local campaigns we're organized. Each
of these took the form of real civic
movement.
Where Everybody Helps.
City and town officials. woman's
club leaders, boards Of trade, health
officials, fire insurance and fire pre-
yention leaders, school children, boy
scouts and the local paint men all CO
operated in the interests Of a more

homelike home town. Individual prop
erty values were increased. loss
through disease and fire waste was
lessened, and the importance of clean
illness, thrift and civic pride in any
movement for homes and towns beau
tif,il was convincingly pointed out ev-
erywhere.
The weakness Of the old-time "clean

campaigns. Permanent results and
ultimately q year-round effort are
sought.
