FLORAL WORK IN SEASON
By LIMA R. ROSE.

Divide and set peony roots now. Fall planting is best for them.
 Mixing compost rough for flower pots means without sitting it.
 Hurry your order for bulbs and plants. Have your borders and pots ready for them when they come.
 Roman hyacinths are best for late potting, as they come into bloom much earlier than the Dutch varieties. Each bulb throws up several ftoWer-spikes.
 Are your neighbors' plants finer and better than yours? If so, there is a reason for it, and you should seek to find out what it is and profit by the knowledge
 Fall is the best time to take up, di- vide and reset old plants of herbace- ous perennials, or to plant most new ones. They should become well-estab- lished before fl szing weather as to root growth.
 More herbaceous perennials are heavy feeders, and thorough enrich ment of the lower soil is of great im- portance. Top dressing every fall should be well attended to, and this should be forked into the soil in the spring after the freezing is done.
 Winter protection is valuable for all plants, no matter how hardy they may be. The object of this is not to keep the plant roots warm, but to prevent the sun, especially in the spring, from warming and thawing the stalks and ground, thus exposing the plant cells to alternate thawing and freezing, which is very hurtful to them.
 Lay in a supply of potting soil now, so if the need arises for soil when the ground is covered with snow or frozen, it can be met. Equal parts of good garden soil, old, well-rotted manure leaf mold Cor wood soiD and sand should be stirred well together, sifted through a coarse sieve and stored un- der shelter in boxes or barrels.
 Do not let the plants intended for the window garden stay out too long. Even slight chill will hurt the ten der ones, and do the hardy ones no good. Do not pinch out the buds after the first of November.
 Do not transfer the plants at once from the border to the sitting room. From the open air to the veranda or a bench on the sunny side of the house {; rom there to a shed or cool room as the frost approaches then to some room where a near fire shall banish the actual cold; then place them in your windows and they will not realize the change so greatly.
 Crotons do not need a specially rich soil. Mix together three parts of leaf mold one of garden soil and one of thoroughly rotted manure. Heat and moist mir are essential. Full sunshine Is liked, except in hot weather.

IS BUZZARD A MENACE?
Accused of Spreading Hog
 Cholera and Anthrax.
For Nearly Three Centuries Work of Bird Has Been Appreciated at It's Full Value in South-Per-
 secution Is Begun.
Rv W. L. M,ATEE.l

Turkey buzzards are familiar fea- lures of Southern landscapes. Their won6erful soaring flight has been a subject of study by a multitude of ob- servers, and the buzzard is not only the model but also the inspiration of the American-invented airplane.
 All vultures specialize in feeding on carrion. While under natural eondi- tions the number of dead animals available for them is somewhat limit ed, yet when the human population is considerable and sanitary conditions not over good, there is much work for 1buzzards, and they fill an important place. For nearly three centuries their work has been appreciated at it's full value in the South, and these birds have been scrupulously protected.
 The turkey buzzard now is threat ened with persecution in the land where heretofore it has received the most jealous protection, for the bird has been accused of spreading such diseases of live stock as hog cholera and anthrax The charge that it spreads hog cholera has never been demonstrated, and until this is done judgment should be suspended. It's relation to anthrax has been investi- gated with the result that in the dis tribution of the disease the bird must be considered a minor agency as com pared with man and various domestic and certain wild animals.
 The nature of their food would indi- cate that buzzards have strong diges- tive powers. The spores of anthrax. or carbon, q virulent stock disease, have been shown by two independent investigations to be destroyed by pass

MONEY FOR RURAL HIGHWAYS
Bonds for County Roads Should Never Run Longer Than 30 Years, Say
 Agricultural Experts.

Bonds sold for county highway im- provement, in the opinion of road spe- cialists of the department of agricul- ture, should never run for more than 30 years, and retirement even earlier is better where this can be accom- plished without too great an increase in the tax rate. It is dangerous prac- tiee to have bonds run for a long pc riod, because in such cases the in- debtedness often outlives the estimated life of the Improvements made with the money so raised. Money borrowed to build roads should be repaid by those who enjoy the benefit of the i'm provelnents thus financed, and not to be 2 debt upon those who gain no bene~ fit from the expenditure.

SOME EASILY MADE
 AND EFFECTIVE BEDS
By L. M. BENNINGTON.

A charming hedge is made by plant ing scarlet salvia in row as a back ground, then a row of white nicotiana, with blue ageratum as border. Here we have the patriotic colors of our dag effectively combined
 The blue of the ageratum and the scarlet Of the salvia would prove q rather violent contrast if planted next each other, but separated by the white of the nieotianla, their aggressiveness Is toned down in such manner as to produce a pleasing effect.
 Another lovely hedge is made of zin- nias in the back row, then calliopsis, with white phloX as border.
 Fine effects are secured by the lib- eral use of riclnus. This plant will grow to a neigh. of seven or eight feet

CYClAMEN

Giyen the proper conditions, the cy- clamen is remarkably easy to grow. When well-grown it is difficult to find a more useful plant for room and win dow decoration. The soil best suited to them is fresh, turfy loam, with a fourth to fifth of well-rotted horse manure, to which add some clean sand if the soil is heavy. Plant so as to leave the top of the bulb just below the surface. The flowers vary from deep red to pure white.

PERENNIAL LARKSPUR

One of the plants which has bene- fited much of late years from the sci- entific attention of growers is the del phinium, that perennial larkspur' which gives such a grateful bit of shaded blue when grown correctly.
 A bed or border of delphiniums will often remain in full flower over pe- riod of three months, and they form one of the small but gallant band of plants that will endure much bad weather.

FERTILITY SOLD FROM FARM
Too Common Practice of Producer .o Calculate Value of His Crop on
 the Market Price.
By c. A. WILSON. Kentuckv Fxna,t
 ment Station

(By c. A. WILSON. Kentucky Fvnart
 ment Station)
 Nothing else has mitigated so mneh against the rational relation of live stock to average farm operations as the utter disregard of the fertility sold from the farm when corn and other crops are sold direct and not fed. In other words, for the sake of the soils of the state and their future produe- tion it has been altogether too common practice for the producer to calculate the value of his crop on the market price. The market price less the fer. tility sold in each pound, bushel, ton. or other commercial unit, is a more logical basis of estimate, and et un- der any system of direct marketing of crops we lose sight of the possibility of better price if fed to live stock on the farm, the value of the utilization of roughage, the accumulation of elements of plantfood and vegetable matter in the manure, q more judicious and profitable rotation and diversity of crops, and an increasing crop yield at much less cost per acre.
 Realizing the rather unconscious ef- feet which market values, as or dinarily interpreted, are having and may have, upon livestock interests. and hence upon the general agriculture of the state. the station has undertaken series of experiments with the view of comparing market and farm values of various Tennessee crops.

White Holland Turkeys.

only a small quantity at a time. A good feed for the first few days is stale bread soaked in milk and squeezed dry. Cornbread crumbs and clabber- ed milk or cottage cheese is also quite often fed and with excellent results. Green feed and grit should be on hand at all times. AS the poults grow older, the ration should gradually be changed to grain.

KILLING GEESE FOR MARKET
Feathers Can Easily Be Removed by Dipping Fowl in Boiling Hot
 Water Three Times.

When killing geese for market, the feathers can be removed easily if, af- ter killing, the body of the goose is dipped three times in water which is almost at the boiling point, dipping it slowly in and out each time, and then wrapping it in canvas or closely-woven cloth to keep in the steam. In a min ute or two this will loosen the feath- CTS so that they will come out easily

IDEAL HOUSE FOR CHICKENS
Should Be We'll Ventilated ana Free From Drafts-First Item Is Of
 Greatest Importance.

The ideal winter poultry house IS dry, free from drafts, and we'll Venti- lated. Proper ventilation does not mean sacrificing warmth or comfort in a properly designed house.
 The importance of good ventllatloh cannot be overestimated. Poor yenli' lation soon results in a decrease III the egg supply, and in disease in tue flock.

 Ribbon beds can be worked out with good effect by using different colors of the yerbena in rows. Such beds are most pleasing when near the house or close to the path, where they can be looked down upon.

LENGTH OF PUBLIC HIGHWAYS
Of Total of About 2,452, ,ooo Miles About 277,ooo, or f1.3 Per Cent
 Are Improved.

The public roads of the United States outside the limits of incorporat- ed towns and cities had, January l, 1915, total length of about 2,452,. 600 miles, of which about 277,OOO miles, or 11.3 per ceDt, are improved with some form of surfacing. The mileage Of surfaced roads is increasing at the rate of about 16,000 miles per annum.

FURNISH VARIETY OF FOODS
Some Farmers Feed Poultry All Win ter on Nothing but corn-Not
 Good as Steady Diet.

Any food as steady diet for poul- try, or any other stock, for that mat ter, will not give good results.
 What would be the result if you were kept upon steady diet of hoe cake, corn pone and Indian pudding for three straight months? Yet that is the very way some farmers are feeding their poultry all winter-corn morn Ing, noon and night.
