Since the European sources of vege-
table seed have been cut of by war
conditions, the seed-growlng industry
In the United States has made rapid
developments particularly In the Pa
cific coast and Rocky mountain states,
according to a report of the bureau Of
crop estimates, United States depart
ment of agriculture.
An added stimulus to this industry
has been the increased number of war
gardens which have been planted in
all parts of the country. The COM
mercial production of vegetable seeds
is chiefly confined to a few widely sep
arated but well-defned districts, but in
exceptional instances the industry has
been introduced into new sections
through the efforts of contracting
seedmen who have sought to expand
the production by entering new areas.
The production of onion seed is car
ried on in many localities. Most of
the Western districts where onions are
grown for market also raise for their
own use and sell the surplus. The
largest section Of production for on
ion seed, however, is known as the
river district" of the San Joaquin
and Sacramento valleys in the central
part Of California.
Carrot Seed in California.
California is the largest producer of
carrot seed. Sacramento and Yolo
counties rank first, with San Joaquin,
Contra Costa, Santa Clara, and San
Benito counties ranking as minor pro-
ducers. In the production of radish
seed the situation is reversed, the coast
counties of California producing the
bulk of the crop, and the river dis
trict being unlmportant as producer.
1t is also grown in the Pacific North
west. Beet seed is grown in both
the river and coast districts Of Cali
fornia, but is probably grown more
extensively around Sacramento than in
any other portion Of the state. Let
tUce seed is grown almost exclusively
near the coast section of California,

Care Of Kitchen EouIpment.


American women as a class ha 20
not practiced economy to any extent
in the care of household equipment,
the states relations service Of tho
department of agriculture believes.
There generally has been sufficient
money to buy new article when 1t
was needed, or when there was wish
to buy, and the market has been well
supplied with new devices to tempt
the housewife. Now 1t is impossible
to purchase some of the simplest arti-
cles because they are not being manu-
featured. The housekeeper is sud-
denly confronted with the unusual
value Of little things and the present
is the opportunity to acquire habits of
thrift.
AreYou Guilty Of These MlsdemeanoEs7
The want of thought in the care
and use Of equipment Is often the
cause Of its short life. Some Of the
apparently trifling mistakes which
cause utensils and tools to wear out
before they should are the following:
Contents of saucepans and kettles
boiled until dry and the metal over
heated.
Handles, screws and fastenings of
knives, forks, egg heaters, ETC., loos-
ened from having been left in hot
water.
Metal utensils put away wet, caus-
ing them to rust.
Covers put away wet with steam as
they are taken off the saucepan.
Brocms and brushes used continu-
ally on one side and worn to point.
Brooms allowed to stand on the
floor until their weight bends or
breaks the straw.
Glasses broken because the bottom
instead of the side il put into hot
water.
China dulled by washing with too
strong soapsuds.
Liquids spilled on rugs or polished
surfaces because the container was
too full.
Contents of the saucepan boiled
over on the stove or In the oven be-
cause allowance was not made for the
expansion Of liquids by heat.
Burners Of gas and oil stoves clog
ged and useless by burned food.
Rugs torn by having been held by
the edge while shaking in cleaning.
Glazing Of porcelain and enameled
sinks, tubs and wash bowls scratched
and broken by cleaning with coarse
cleaning materials.
Finish Of furniture married by placs
ing hot dishes, medicine bottles and
by splitting liquids on It.
Furniture cracks and parts loosened
because the oil bath and rub are not
applied regularly.
China broken In the refrigerator BE-
placing heavier dishes on It.
Dish towels scorched and stained
when used for oven cloths and to lift
hot saucepans from the stove.
Vanished and oiled woodwork
spoiled by washing with soap.
Springs in beds, couches and chairs
and other pieces of furniture broken
by allowing children to jump and piny
too roughly on them.

A single rat does far less harm ina
year than one of the larger mammals,
such as a lion, tiger, or wolf; but the
large mammals of prey are compare
lively few in number, while rats are
exceedingly abundant. North America
or any other continent has probably
as many rats as people-possibly two
or three times as many. The destruc-
ton wrought by this vast horde Of
rodents is far greater than that
wrought by lions, tigers, wolves and
all other noxious mammals together.
Injurious insects are enormously de-
structive to crops. Probably their
combined ravages inflict greater eco
nomic losses than do those of rats !;
but no one kind Of insects destroys as
much. The harm done by any species
of insect Is usually confined to certain
geographic limits, rarely extending
over large parts of a continent; that

The pea-seed growing districts are
widely scattered but are somewhat re-
stricted by the pea weeyll. The two
largest districts are in eastern Wash

Other Vegetable Seed.
The production Of seed of the garden
varieties of beans is concentrated in
portions Of Colorado, California, Wash

trict of Colorado is the leading dis
trict. Llma-bean seed-growing is con-

soil, because of the leguminous nature
of the plants. There are a number OF
handpower and gasoline grinding mills
Of standard make now on the market

Due to the relatively high oil con

From European Source Z
The source of the disease appears
to be a shipment of several carloads
of European potatoes OF inferior quail
ity, distributed in 1912, before the
passage of the Plant Quarantine Act.
Since that date the importation Of p0~

Menaces Human Life.

The rats destructiveness is not con-
fined to crops and property; 1t men
aces human life as well. This rodent
Is responsible for more deaths among
human beings than all the wars Of
history. Not all the fatal epidemics
Of the past were bubenic plague, but
enough of them have been SO identified
to show that almost every century Of
the Christian era has had at least one
great pandemic of this scourge which
destroyed millions of the worlds pop
ulation. The great plague of London,
which killed more than half the in
habitants that did not flee from the
city, was by no means the worst out
break recorded. The plague called
"black death" devastated Europe for
80 years of the fourteenth century,
destroying two-thirds to three-fourths
of the population Of large territories
and one-fourth Of all the people, or
about 25,000000 persons. Since 1896
plague has carried away nearly 9,000,-
600 Of the population Of India alone.
The disease is still intrenched in
Asia, Africa, Australia and South
America, and cases of it have occurred
In Europe and North America.

Losses Due to Rats.
The economic loss due to rats is
astounding. No extensive or exact
statistics on the subject are available,
but surveys OF conditions existing in
a few Of the older cities of the United
States show that losses due to rats
are almost In exact ratio to the popU-
latiOns. In rural districts the losses
ore much greater in proportion to in
habitants than in cities. Assuming
that there are in the United States
only as many rats as people, and that
each rat in a year destroys property
valued at 81. the total yearly damage
is about $200,000,O00. To this must
be added the expense Of fighting rats,
including the large sums paid for
traps and polsons, the keep Of dogs
and cats. and the labor involved. In
addition the loss OF human efficiency
due TO diseases disseminated by the
rat should be considered.
