Is pleasant sometimes to give 1t its full

great upper Superior, deep reservoir OF
waters. or south along Michigan to the
smoky metropolis of the west. 1t is a
huge fresh water world Of vacation
idlers. popular indeed without being ex-
actly fashionable or famous. Few peo-
pie. for example. would name the lower
peninsula OF Michigan as one of thG
great holiday regions Of the land.
Yet. with gentle sand beaches. be-
hind which lie peach orchards, it rep
resents for a whole mid-western and
southwestern people a cheap and ac-
cessible shore to which they flock by
thousands. Even Chicago itself, little
as 1t might suggest itself to most of us
as summer resort, has it's own Glen
tele from the south and southwest, who
establish themselves in suburban no.

selves up alternately to town pleasures
and the magic of blue waters.
Below Niagara and past Ontario the
waters OF the lakes sweep into the most
lordly Of American rivers, the st. Law
renee, at whose beginning is scattered
the lovely archipelago of the Thousand
islands, labyrinth of clear channels,
upon which skiffs float and brisk mo-
tor boats are always dashing on their
way toward remoter fishing grounds
and picnic lunches. The island region
is not really wild. yet 1t has a pretty
semblance of the wilderness. But its
chief charm Is probably that it seems to
offer so freely fulfilment Of one Of
childhood's dreams. and a dream which
does not fade with age-that of living
proudly upon an island of ones own.
There Is something quite unreasonably
attractive about the crowded islets
around Alexandria bay. the capital Of
the archipelago. where so many gentle
men-doubtless in ordinary life quite
ordinary fellows-sit monarchs of their
own domain.

sunfIower as a Field Crop.
From the Chicago News.


Kansas may lose its right TO the title
OF Sun1ower state, but 1t will probably
hold fast to the title, even thought 1t loses
new claimant for the honor of being the
real Sunfiower state is Arkansas.
The state Of Arkansas has entered upon
bat for economic reasons. OF course, as
nearly all other states. sunfiowers have
been long grown In gardens for their
beauty and their height but they have
planted in fields. From being merely a
garden pet or a back yard beauty the sun
flower has been advanced to the proud po-
sition OF a crop. Sunfiower growing q
comparatively new industry In Arkansas
has been started In Mississippi county In
that state and is now conducted on a large
to the world that Arkansas viii grow
this year, for the first time in her history
something like 1000 acres OF sunfiowers
seed consumed in the United States
Sunflower seed Is used largely for poul-
Several farmers win plant as much as 100
acres and many fields OF 10 ana 20 acres
will be set out in sunfowers.
1t is not generally known In circles
where education in the matter OF sun
flowers has not been brought up to date
that Missouri is also something of a sun
Of the field crops of Missouri for Is years.
The reason for the extension OF sunfower
cultivation Is because the use Of the seed
Of the flower is becoming extensive and
in the receipt Of sunflower seed from Rus
sia, which country at the breaking out OF
the war furnished about 50 per cent OF the
try food and Is considered very nutri-
tious. Different kinds OF oils are extract
ed from the seed, and last year 1t was
USED largely as substitute for cottonseed
products The poultry business Is grow
Ing throughout the United States, and the
extension Of that industry accounts In
great measure for the increasing demand
for sunfiower seed. 49,.
The yield OF seed runs from about 800
to 1900 pounds an acre, and though the
average price OF the seed i'm the thrash
ing field Is 4 or 5 cents pound. the price
recently has been up to is cents a pound
It Is reported that a sunhower crop Is an
easy one to cultivate. An expert has said
that the labor required to grow 10 acres
Of cotton or corn win be ample for 10 acres
of sunfiowers One or two CIVILIZATIONS is
all that IL required, and the threshtng Is
a small part of the crop labor. The rows
are planted north and south, and when the
heads mature a wagon Is driven along the
row and the heads cut off with corn
knife, falling into the wagon. where a man
or a boy strikes them against the wagon
bed, Smelling the seed out. The seed Is
then put in a dry place, and finally famed
sacked and marketed.
