ENGLAND Crows Sunflownra

The big war revival in agriculture Is
producing many interesting expert
ments In the growing of new crops on
land not in use for growing human
food. For example, a big area in Eng.
land is now, on the suggestion of the
food production department, planted
with sunhowers, the seeds Of which
are valuable both as n source Of oil
and for poultry food.
Small cultlyators are also urged BY
the government to sow sugar beets as
an Improved food for stock, especially
for pigs. Farmers whose cereal crops
haze failed owing to attacks from diff.
fercnt' parasites are advised to grow
instead llnseed. The latest reports
from the country show unprecedented

BIG DEMAND FOR CASTOR OIL
Government Has Arranged for Exten.
sYe Cultivation Of the Plant
Needed in War Service.

Among the war bOOmS is one IN the
production of the castor bean, and
the government has become partner
In the industry Of producing the plant
and extracting the oil. The govern
ment has let contracts for the cultiva-
tion Of 100000 acres Of the plant and
nearly all this area contracted for lies
in the South, 10000 acres being In
Florida.
The government huS entered this line
of industry because the demand for
this strange oil has OutStrippcd the
supply, and the price has risen to
great height, But II was not the high
price Of the article which induced such
action, but the scarcity Of the oil,
which is considered as being essential
TO the prosecution Of the war. Castor
oil is usually thought Of in terms of
medicine, but It's highest value to the
allies in this war is as a lubricant for
engines Of maximum power and mini
mum weight, engines whose pstOns
work at the greatest possible speed.
For ulrplanc engines it is the best lu-
bricant known, and that is what castor
oil IS being now largely used for.
The cultivation of the castor plant,
which was once quite flourshing In
duStry in several of the states Of the
West, notably California and Kansas,
and also in some Of the southern states,
lunguiShcd because of the competition
Of castor beans grown in India and be-
cause Of the development Of the pctrO-
lcum industry ana the competition of
mineral oil lubricants.

Nails Turned Out In Quantities

Formerly the metal for making nails
was cut into strips and then forged in.

Strips are cut with steam shears and

In making. a diagram of the garden
it is we'll to use tough paper, such as
heavy wrapping paper, which will
stand repeated handling out of doors.
A fairly large scale should be adopt
