towards Food Conservation Is well
under way and every patriotic wo-
man is observing her meatless and
wheatless days. with less sugar and
less fat than usual, let us turn our
attention TO another side OF the food
question.
After the proper food has been
chosen, and cooked all is not done
to insure good health. Many articles
are written on the effect Of an at
tractively set table, on the appetite,
indeed many more articles are writ

SUGGESTIONS

Grow from one to five acres Of soy
beans-divide the acreage into small
lots so as to hog down when they
begin TO ripen. Cut rest for hay.
Buy your soy beans now. The
Haberlandt bean is best suited for
this section of the country.
Grow from one TO ten acres Of COW
peas and divide into lots as soy
beans. Hog COW peas also.
Put four acres in corn. At last
working, plant two rows of COW
peas between each row Of corn.
When peas begin to ripen, turn your
sows and pigs in. Weigh them, and
when you take them out weigh them
again. You will find that you have
put on more pounds of meat at less
expense than feeding corn alone. Try
this.
Plan for two TO four acres OF rape.
Sow about four TO six pounds per
acre. last Of March or first Of April
- depends on season. Sow two
