SUNFLOWERS A PAYING CROP
Raised by Farmers In Southeast Mis-
souri, on 40 Large Scale
AZ Corn.

Kansas City, Mo-In southeast Mis-
souri, farmers raise sunflowers to feed
chickens. Many farmers in New
Madrid county, Missouri. are growing
sunflowers for seed on as large q
scale as they grow corn.
The seed lie high in oil and protein
and makes an excellent feed. 1t is
used chiefly as a feed for parrots and
as a part Of the commercial poultry
feeds. The seed is purchased each
fall by general seed buyers from st.
Louis.
The soils in which sunflowers are
grown are the once swampy lands and
range from sandy loans to clays. The
average production is about 5000 to
Is, 900 pounds Of seed to the acre. The
usual selling price is from ~ to 4
cents a pound. The average return is
about $40 for each acre. Some Of the
farmers are growing the sunflowers in
place of corn.
The crop is planted about the same
as corn. In the labor required in han.
ding and cultivation, the two crops
are alike. When the crop natures, q
wagon Is taken into the field and the
heads are cut off and thrown into the
wagon. The seeds are then threshed
out with a threshing machine.

When the lilacs have finished bloom

The best way to kill weeds is to

An excellent spray for the rose
bushes is made of one-half pound Of
laundry soap melted in hot water to
which Is added one cupful of kero-
sene. When this comes to q boil, use
about one part to fifteen parts Of wa
ter.
Keep the moisture in your soil

Lawn clippings make an excellent
mulch for bushes, shrubs and large

proper place in food values they will
no doubt continue to be wasted in
cooking.
The failure of getting good results
from vegetable food may be with the
selection, for vegetables out of season
are neither economical nor satisfac
tory; the flavor is usually in inverse
ratio to the cost. The best of cook
ing and seasoning cannot supply the
lack Of flavor.
Vegetables may be crisp and fresh
when brought from the market, but
by careless handling are wilted and
spoiled.
In the cooking of vegetables there
are a few things to remember, first
to retain all the mineral matter and
nutriment possible, to soften the cellu-
lose and to develop the flavor, making
them more palatable.
Spinach cooked properly should be
we'll washed and cooked without the
addition of water or very little. This
vegetable being rich in iron which is
soluble in water, may by being cooked
in large amount of Water be nearly
valueless as a food. This is true of
satisfy, green peas and beans, or, in
fact, any of the delicately favored,
succulent vegetables. The season
ing is another important item; the fla
vor should never be disguised by sea-
soning. Usually butter, pepper and
salt, not too much, is the best be-
cause it is the plainest.
To accomplish these results one
may use several methods; cook the
vegetable whole or in large pieces, to
cook with the skin on when possible,
to cook in as small an amount of wa
ter as possible without burning, to
serve the water in a sauce with the
vegetable whenever possible, and to
season after the vegetable has start
ed cooking 80 that the salt does not
