These races of Polish fowls were frst
known as the Crested Dutch. 1t is
probable that they came from Italy to
the Netherlands thence 20 Western
Europe and later Ia America.
The first OF these varieties was the
White Crested Black: and from these
the Dutch breeders obtained the silver
and golden Polish. some with crcsts
only. and others With both Crcsts and
boards. The Golden Polish, as shown
above. are OF the latter variety, and
they have immense crcsts and boards.

plumage is generally golden tan in

Tomato Culture becoming Profitable.

Tomato growing is receiving special
attention by our food administration.
There is and will be a good demand
for canned tomatoes as long as the
war lasts. They act not only as q
food. bu; drink for the soldiers. Their
ac!dity also goes TO help balance the
rations 81 the enlisted man who Is -c-
CURED 10 eat only condensed substan-
tial foods.
Where a commercial canning plant Is
accessible. every farmer should make
an effort 10 put out An acreage of to-
matocs this year. They will bring a
good price and it viii be an indirect
method OF helping 10 win the wa-.
Where no large canning plant is &c.
cessihl". = small acreage should be
planted and a homie canning plant pro-
cured.
Tomatoes bear well, are prolific and
grow under many conditions. In most
parts o. The United States tho fruit is
grown with the greatest case In fact.
this fruit is grown more abuuddntly in
81 perfection than elsewhere in the
world
The plants are grown from seed and
ar" usually grown in hats, ten TO
twelve inches square and hold about
Two inches OF soil These plants are
thirned 20 about three inches each
way, leaving only the more vigorous
ones. They are then transplantcd to
tho field as soon as the weather to
settled, that *. when the DANCE. o.

Any good soil, we'll drained. is ad-
Nisahle for tomato culture. An applica-
ton OF manure /" the field in the win

|, Is not necessary 10 pack the eggs
all at once. In the case Of small ilocks,
this would mean holding the eggs too
long. The GEES should be placed in the
preventative the same DAY they are laid.
The quicker they are safeSuaTded
against contamination the better. As
the csSs arc gathered from the nests
place them III the solution.
1t is essential, OF course, that the
csSs be strictly fresh. and i: has been
found that sterile egEs keep better
than fertile ones. Never used cracked
eggs: they are sure 20 spoil.
The method AZ outlined is not in
tended to keep eggs indefinitely. but
for a period OF six TO ten months. which
is sufficient TO carry the operation over

duction.
