Work of County Agriculturist

several different lines of work de-
manded attention last week and made
1t an exceptionally busy one The
Farm Management Survey work, which
was begun on Tuesday, occupied more
time than any other single project.
This consists of the taking Of records
of the farm business for the purpose of
determining the most profitable lines
being carried on in the county, the size
of the farm, amount Of livestock, equip
ment etc, that are best adapted to
conditions here a careful record is
taken OH each farm of the yield and
acres of crop grown. amount Of live
stock, and the receipts and expendi.
lures for the year beginning May |,
1915, and ending May 1, 1916. At that
time the farmer, as rule, has only q
small amount of feed and other sup
get fairly accurate inventory. A
number of men in China and Mussey
townships have requested this work
and ii is requested to get about fifty
records in each locality. In other
counties where the work has been car
ried on for few years, it is proving
to be of immense value TO both the
men on the farms and the county
agent in working out the problems pc.
culiar to the community. The work
is being continued this week, and IL is
expected that about ten DAYS more will
be required to complete it.
Monday afternoon few stockmen
were assisted in vaccinating their cat

has been causing them considerable
loss for a number OF years. Monday

THE TONKA BEAN.
Prom II We Get the Perfume Known
as New Mown Hay.

Grass, freshly cut or otherwise, has
had nothing TO do with the production
of the perfume labeled New Mown
Hay" The source OF the essence is
really the tonka bean. found in the
tropical countries of South America
chiefly In the valleys Of the Orinoco
Caura and Cuchivero rivers In 'Vene
zuela and certain sections OF Colon
bia and Brazil.
The tonka bean tree in some cases
reaches a height OF sixty feet 1t has
pinnate leaves and large panicles of
flowers, which are succeeded by pod
containing single seed. The odor,
which Is remarkably strong. resembles
that of sweet clover new anOwn hay
and is due to the presence of cumarin,
a crystalllzable, volatile. neutral sab
stance which is soluble in alcohol or
ether and somewhat SO in boiling wa
ter, from which 1t crystallizes on cool
ing. The beans are often frosted with
crystals OF this substance. giving them
the appearance of being sugar coated.
The collectors In Venezuela and Colon.
bia usually set out for the forests In
February, when the fruit begins to
ripen. They go up the rivers in canoes
or skiffs by the hundreds. stopping
wherever the trees are plentiful. and
when the fruit begins to fall the pods
are gathered and taken to some open
space where sunshine is plentiful and
there carefully crushed and the beans
extracted and then spread out to dry.
When thoroughly dried they are loaded
into the boats and transported TO Gu
dad Bolivar or some other convenient
port, where they are sold to the ex.
porting merchants. Here they go
through the process Of capitalization
by being stepped In strong rum or al
cohol for about twenty.four hours and
then again dried
They lend their fragrance TO high
grade tobacco, fine toilet soaps, to
"brilliantine" and other hair dressings
and dyes, to cosmetics. to favoring ex-
tracts used in CONNECTIONS and TO many
other things that crafty the sense of
smell.--Argonaut
