OLDEST OF AMERICAN GRAPES
Scuppernong Originated in North Caro-
lima Before 1760-vine Is Pro-
ductive and Vigorous.

The Scuppernong is probably the
oldest cultivated variety of native
American grapes. While the place of
origin cannot positively be stated, ow-
ing to the age of the variety, it has
been pretty definitely established that
it originated in Tyrrell county, North
Carolina before 1760.
From the vicinity of its origin the
variety was distributed throughout the
eastern part of North Carolina and
was planted in vineyards ranging in
size from a few vines to many acres.
From these vineyards the variety was
gradually distributed over the costal
plain and Piedmont sections Of the
southeastern United States. 1t has
steadily increased in popularity and is
today the leading variety of the Mus
catine grapes.
The vine is productive and vigOr-

UNIFORM COLOR IS DESIRED
coIoring Should Be Added Just Before
Churning Begins-overchurning
Is Undesirable.

A uniform color in the butter from
one season to the other is desirable,
hence during the winter when the
cows are getting dry feed little col
oring should be added. Too much col
oring, however, is very undesirable.
When coloring Is used 1t should be
added just before the churning begins.
Stopping the churn at the proper
time has much to do with the quality
of the butter. 1t should be stopped
when the butter Is in the form Of
granules about the size of kernel Of
wheat or a trifle larger. When the
butter is churned to too small gran
ules many of them will go through the
buttermilk strainer and will cause
more or less loss. Overchurning is I'M
desirable because the butter will retain
considerable buttermilk, which is diff
cult TO remove and which also tends to
cause the butter to deteriorate faster.
AS soon as the churning has been COM
pleted, the buttermilk should be drawn
off.

GOOD CARE FOR STRAWBERRY
Patch That Is Neglected and Which
Mats or Grows Up in Weeds,
Cannot Produce Well.

(By c. w. RAPP, Oklahoma Experiment
Station.)
A strawberry patch that is well cul-
tivated during the summer, and from
which all unnecessary runners are re-
moved, should remain in good condi-
ton and store up sufficient plant food
for an excellent crop. One that is neg
lected, and which mats or grows up in
weeds, cannot be expected to produce
well. Such berries as are produced
will be small. The crop will easily be
influenced by dry weather in the
spring, and good drought during
summer will kill off most of the plants.
Nothing responds better to good
care than a strawberry patch, and no
fruit Is more easily affected by neg
lect.

BLACKLEG IS TO BE AVOIDED
infectious Disease Usually Attacks
Cattle Between Ages Of Six
Months and Two Years.

The infectious disease known as
blackleg usually affects cattle between
the ages of six months and two and
one-half years. 1t gains entrance to
the tissues through small wounds on
the skin.
A swelling occurs beneath the skin
on the headquarters, the shoulder, or
the lower portion of the neck. If the
hand is passed over this swelling ii
crackles, and If cut into a yellowish,
bloody fluid flows out. The carcasses
of dead animals should be buried or
burned and the spots where they died
should be disinfected.
The healthy cattle should be re-
moved from infected pastures and all
susceptible cattle should be vaccinated
