TREATMENT FOR ACID SOILS
Ground Limestone, Air-SIaked, Water
Slaked or Lump Lir3 Can b
Used Successfully.

Lime is the one remedy used for
acid soils, and it is very easily applied.
Ground limestone, air-slaked lime, or
water-slaked lime, or lump lime car
be used. A peck of quicklime will be
about right for a square rod of gar
den, and double the amount Of slaked
about the same results. The ground
stone or the slaked lime can be scat
tered easily, but the quicklime will
have to be piled in small piles and
allowed to Stake before it can be dis
tributed. In shaking with water do
not use much, just enough so the
stone will Stake quickly and will make
a dry powder when through.

HELP SMALL FARMERS
Co. cooperative Bull Associations
Becoming Big Factor.
Especially Adapted to Herds Which
Are Too Small to Afford Valuable
Animal at Head-Organizs-
tions Are Now.

There are now more than 30 active
cooperative bull associations in the
United States, representing a total
membership of $50 and owning about
120 pure-bred bulls. In the opinion of
specialists, cooperation in this re-
spect is only in its infancy and CO.
operative bull associations should be-
come a great factor in the improve
men of our dairy cattle.
The cooperative bull association is
especially adapted to herds which are
so small hat a valuable bull for each
herd would be too heavy an invest
ment to be justified by the extent of
the business. Through cooperation,
cattle owners are enabled to obtain
the benefits which come from the use
of a pure-bred sire at an expense

POULTRY MANURE IN GARDEN
Earth and Spread Broadcast VIII
Prove Beneficial.

A common way of using hen manure
for garden purposes is to mix it with
an equal amount of dry earth, crush
it, and her spread it by hand. The
amount necessary, of course, depends
upon the condition of the garden soil.
A liberal application spread broad
cast, however, will be beneficial In
most all cases.
Usually the dust is applied on the
dropping boards In the coop, az 1t
helps to keep the coop sanitary, and
absorbs the moisture, also prevents
the nitrogen in the manure from es-
Gaping.
For a complete fertilizer containing
hen manure, the following is good:
Four hundred pounds of hen manure,
200 pounds of dissolved bone, 100
pounds muriate of potash, $50 pounds
of plaster and 100 pounds of nitrate
of soda.
At present you woald probably have
some difficulty in getting the muriate
of potash and nitrate of soda, and
therefore 300 pounds of dissolved bone
and $50 pounds of plaster added to the
manur would be the best combina
ton under present circumstances.

KIDNAPPED 10 YEARS
AGO, FINDS MOTHER
(By international News service)

PORTLAND, ORE, July 14.-Ralph
Stewart, nineteen years old, of this
city, kidnapped by his father when
one month old, and who had lost all
trace of his mother since that time,
has been restored to his mothers
arms, after years of searching.
Young Stewart was taken from his
cradle shortly after he was born and
placed in a public home by his father.
His mother was ill at the time, and
when she recovered she could find
no trace of her baby. AS the boy
grew older he learned the story of his
early childhood and started a search
for his mother.
The search was conducted from the
office of the Juvenile Court here un-
der the direction of William Spencer.
Stewart brought his story to Spencer
several years ago and at hat time a
picture of the boy and his story were
published in a Portland paper. This
brought the first clue to the long-lost
parent.
E. c. Carson, of Seattle, who read
the story, remembered the facts and
communicated with Portland, and
through his friends, who had beea ac-
quainted with the boys mother years
before, the woman was traced to the
little town of Rockport, Wash.
The mothers name is now Mrs. F.
]. Melville.

FIXING VALUE OF SKIM MILK
Result Given Of Experiments Made by
Dean Henry at Wisconsin Eek
pertinent Station.

Dean w. A. Henry. who for many
years was In charge of the feeding ex-
,periments at the Wisconsin station,
concluded after a great many expert
ments hat when corr is worth 80 cents
per bushel the valSe of skim milk Is
81 cents per hundred p 1nds, and
when corn is worth "a cents per bush
ell, skim milk is worth 40 cents per
hundred.
Gov. w. d. Hoard, for many years d
leading dairyman in Wisconsin, sug-
gested the following rule for finding
the money value Of skim milk: "Mul-
,tiply the market value of live hogs in
cents per pound by five vixen skim
milk is fed alone, but when fed with
corn or barley, multiply the price by
six" This gives the money value OF
skim milk per hundred pounds.
The GurIer rule is that skim milk is
worth half as much per hundred
pounds as corn is worth per bushel
Dollar corn would therefore %
cents as the price for skim milk.

Pure Bred Bull.

which is no greater, and in many
cases is even less, than the cost of
maintaining a scrub.
Better and fewer bulls" is a
phrase which represents the aim of
these associations. A typical organi-
zatiOn Is composed of from 10 to 30
farmers who own Jointly five bulls.
The territory of the association is di-
vlded into five breeding blocks and one
bull assigned to each block. To pre-
vent inbreeding, each bull is moved to
the next block every two years. Bar
ring losses from death or other causes,
therefore, no new bulls need be pur-
chased for ten years. 1t is customary
to apportion the purchase price, and
the expense of supporting the bulls,
among the members according to the
number of cows owned by each.
These associations have been known
in the United States only since 1908,
when the first one was organized, in
Michigan. The short time which has
elapsed since then makes 1t impossible
to demonstrate the full value of the
associations, because the influence of
a pure-bred sire is felt in the herd
for more than one generation.
In regard to the returns from grad
ing up cattle through the use of the
pure-bred bulls of the cooperative
associations, one estimate obtained
from farmers in Maryland, Michigan,
and Minnesota, places the increased
value of the offspring in the first
generation at from 30 to so per cent
or an average of IS per cent. Such
large profits are commonly associated
by business men with the possibility
of equally serious loss, but in the bull
associations this does not seem to bt
true. 1t is difficult to see that any
probability of loss exists.

EXPERTS FROwN ON
FREAK SHIP TYPES
(By international News service)

(By international News Service)
NEW YORK, July 14.-Freak steam
ship types, such as have been men
toned to a great extent since the war
pressure forced consideration of pro-
lection against the submarine menace,
find little support among American
experts on ship construction here.
Speed" is the answer of maritime
men to new inventions proposed to
save ships from torpedoes. Unique
form of shipbuilding, having as their
basis nets and double bulls, are not
warmly received.
Officers in charge of investigating
for the United States navy all inven-
tons of the sort mentioned are being
driven to desperation with what they
term fool IDEAS" One of the latest
of these is a scheme Of surrounding a
cargo carrying vessel with power
boats, four on each side. These are
to be chained loosely to the large YES
sci and, in addition to being guided
by a wireless control, they are to race
alongside and act as convoy and buff
fer against to%rpedoes and mines.
In addition to the double hull there
has also been in actual operation the
plan to have nets strung out along
side the bow of the ship, like a cow
catcher in front of a locomotive
these nets to gather in the tCrpedoes.
This is not regarded favorably by ma
rine experts for the simple reason that
they deem it probable the nets will be
broken or forced into the propellers
by the force of big waves.

TUBERs ON STRAWBERRY BED
Large Yields and High Quality Sc
cured If Suitable Seed Is Use@-
Ohio Station Plan.

One of the best crops that can be
grown on an old strawberry bed is po-
tatoes. They may also be planted af-
ter a crop of clover has been cut.
Large yields and high quality may be
secured if suitable seed is planted.
For such planting the potatoes make
quick growth if sprouted in partial
sunlight in the spring. When spreal
out in shallow trays or on a floor
where the sun shines part Of the day,
short, stubby, green sprouts grow 70
one-half to three-fourths of an inch
long, and the tubers shrivel somewhat.
These potatoes may then be cut and
planted with the sprouts on, care beins
taken not to injure them. At the Ohio
experiment station such seed planted
June 30 yielded nearly twice as much
as ordinary cellar-stored potatoes
planted the same day.

TO CUT FOOD BILL
SERVE DRIED FRUIT

"Substitute dried fruit for fresh
fruit and cut down the grocery bill"
advises Elizabeth Amery Of the home
economics department Of the Unjver-
sity Of Wisconsin.
Much of the fresh fruit consumed
in Wisconsin during the winter months
consists of varieties imported from
other states and countries. Dried apri
cots, peaches, and prunes, if cooked
and served attractively, make excel
lent substitutes Tor fresh fruits which
are much more expensive and often
hard to procure.
There are, according to Miss Amery,
one or two things to bear in mind when
purchasing, and several precautions to
observe when cooking dried fruit. ct
is usually Il good policy" size says, ito
purchase medium OF i:,rge-SiZed fruits,
even though they cost little more
than the smaller sizes. For example
small pruneS are undesirable because
they are cull$ OF else they have been
allowed to stand in uncovered boxes
in the store and have dried out Be
sides suffering from settling dust and
a possible invasion Of worms, the
flavor and food value have been de-
str0yed and the fruit has become
