Now that potatoes are scarce every
bit of available space is being used in
growing them. Already the women
of the nation have worked out a
scheme of growing seed potatoes in
window boxes. thereby adding sew
eral dollars to the family income.
When the housewife prepares her po-
tatoes for the evening meal she cuts
a piece from the rose" end of the
potato off before peeling and plants Ii
in the sitting room window box, which
contains either leaf mold. coconut fiber
or sand. Each piece. says one potato
planter, should weigh not less than
one and a half ounces, and the box
should be kept in the window of a
cooi-but not too cool-room until the
sprouts are from one-half to an inch
high. Thus the housewife has q sup
ply of seed potatoes, which are daily
increasing in value.

EGGS AND MEAT FOR FAMILY
Chickens to Supply His Own Table
Need Little Feed.

Every farmer should keep enough
chickens to supply eggs and meat for
family use, in the opinion of 7. S.
Townsley, assistant in poultry hus-
bandry in the Kansas State Agricul
tural college.
"The average farm will support a
considerable number of fowls on the
waste products" said Mr.. TOwnsley.
''The flock is the only available supply
of fresh meat during the summer for
the average farmer, especially if he
lives any distance from town. On many
farms the proceeds from the sale of
eggs during the laying season pay the
grocery bill.
Chickens are easily cared for on a
farm where they have plenty of range.
Little feed need be given except dur
ing bad weather when they cannot
rustic. They can be taken care of by
the farmer out of working hours or by
the children or old people"

CORN is BEST SILAGE CROP
Provides Best Quality and Makes
Greatest YieId-Sorghum Good
on Very Dry Soils.

The first service of a silo is to pro-
vide means of storing and utilizing
coarse feeds or by-products that other
wise would be lost.
The department of farm crops of the
Missouri College of Agriculture recon-
mends corn as the best crop in general
for ensilage. 1t provides the best
quality silage and in addition makes
the greatest yield in tons per acre.
Corn two parts and soy beans one part
make an excellent combination for
silage.
On very thin soils or in excessively
dry years the grain sorghums are COM
monty better than corn in that they re-
turn larger tonnage per acre. In
general, however, corn is TO be pre-
ferred.
Crops which make fair quality of
forage when cured as hay should not
be used in preference to corn for filling
siloS.

in Orange Judd and Farmer. 1t can
be purchased at almost any drug store
for about % cents quart. One quart
of water glass mixed with II quarts
of water that has been boiled and then
allowed to cool will make enough mix
ture to preserve about 10 dozen eggs.
If the eggs are to be held six or eight
months, stronger solution is better.
The water glass and the water are
stirred until thoroughly mixed, then
the liquid put into a stone jar that has
been thoroughly cleaned.
Clean, wholesome eggs are dropped
into this water glass solution as gath
cred each Cay. In filling the jar, at
least two inches of the liquid should
cover the top layer of the eggs to allow
for evaporation of some of the solu-
ton. The eggs are placed small end
down in the water glass. The thin
coating of paraffin effectually excludes
air and makes replenishing the water
glass unnecessary. The jar is stored
in cool cellar.
