TURN GULL APPLES
INTO GOOD VINEGAR
Don't Feed to Pigs When
They Can Be Utilized.

About this time of the year the
fruit farmers are busy going over their
apples, grading them, picking out the
culls and packing the choice fruit for
market. In the past il has been COM
mon practice to throw away the Gull
apples, or rather, to feed them to the
hogs. While por >is selling high and
anything that can be utilized in grow
ing 1t is by no means wasted. still
there is a mort profitable outlet to the
Gull apples than that of feeding them
10 pigs. Why not make some cider
which later will turn into cider vine-
gar Vinegar like everything else,
has gone up in price and, while it
takes some time for cider to turn into
good vinegar. still the money received
for the latter product PAYS for the
effort.
Use your cull apples for cider. DO
not throw the rooted fruit with the
culls. for poor vinegar will be the
result if such Il practice Is followed,
but take the small fruit. that which is
imperfect for market and yet funda-
mentally sound. Crush out the Juice,
strain it thoroughly and put it into
wooden barrels to store. Be sure that
these barrels are thoroughly cleaned
and sealded before the cider is put
in them and then store them in dry
cellar or some place where there will
| be a uniform temperature. Put a dou-
bic fold of muslin over the upper hung
hole to admit fresh air and keep out
| dirt. The cider needs no further treat
! ment until it turns to vinegar and can
| he sold.

Much Grain Destroyed
by Incendiary Fires

Ii is reported from authoritative
sources that since last April when the
United States entered into the war,
not less than $25,000,O0O worth of food
has been destroyed by fire. and that
most of this fire loss has been due
to incendiarism. Some of. the larger
fires are the Rochester fire, at which
$l,O00,OO0 worth of grain was de-
stroyed; the Kansas City stock yards
ire. involving loss of sl,500,O0O: the
Brooklyn elevator fire. with a loss of
over 100000. and the Baltimore fire
of $5,0OO.O00. All of these are now
known to have been the work of in
cendiaries.

Good Ventilation Needed
for Health of Chickens

The proper ventilation of the poul-
try house is most important, since
upon this depends, To Il great extent,
the comfort of the birds, The system
of ventilation employed must provide
for gradual and constant change of
air. This must be accomplished with
out causing too rapid changes and
must not subject the birds to a direct
draft. To avoid drafts one opening
only IS desirable-in the front of the
house or of each pen. With two open
| ings the wind may blow in one and
out of the other. Again, with the
front of the house open, the back and
ends must be tight; even all knotholes,
cracks and other small openings must
be closed. II Is essential to have good
ventilation to remove dampness from
the house.
