There has been a general revision

by the grocer without substitute

may be purchased on a ratio of two
pounds of rye flour to three pounds

wheat or graham flour, or graham
meal, containing not less than 95
per cent of the wheat berry, with a

out the purchase of any substitute,
but at no greater price by the miller

standard price for wheat flour.

Mixed f1ours to be manufactured
by the miller and sold by the retail

one of the four following formulas:

LEAVES STORED FOR WINTER
They Are Easily and Quickly Gath
cred In Various Ways-6ig Pieces
Of Cloth Excellent.

(By M. A. CovERDELL)
II farmers only understood the
many uses to which leaves could be
put, more of them would be stored.
Some may think it takes too much
time and labor, but they are easily
and quickly gathered in various ways.
One good plan is to have cheap bar
rels handy, fill them with leaves, and
set them away where rain or snow will
not reach them.
Another method by which the stor-
age Of leaves may be accomplished is
that Of using common gunny or bur-
lap sacks. These, also. may be stored
away without emptying the sacks, and
they will be in convenient shape to
use few at time during the winter.
If one has only small number Of
sacks, the leaves may be carried and
emptied from the sacks into some out.
building not in use; but where one
desires to store considerable guam
tity, we find that bed-sheets, or SINH
lar pieces of cloth, are excellent for
the purpose.
Simply spread them on the ground {;
rake up the leaves with a common
garden-rake and pile them on the
sheet; catch hold of each Of the four
corners and draw them together.
A large quantity can be carried in
this manner, and when it Is desired to
empty the sheet, let 60 of one corner
and allow the leaves to roll out.

CAUSE OF POISONING
FOUND lNI,kENTUekY
Disease of Live Stock Has Been
Under Observation for
Several Years.

A bacillus causing forage poisoning
has been discovered by Investigators
at the Kentucky experiment station;
also q serum for its control.
This disease Of live stock has been
under the observation of men at this
station under the direction Of DR.. Rob-
ert Graham for several years. It was
only after much Investigation that he
and his c0workers succeeded in isolat-
ing a bacteria from some oat straw
which produced the disease, which,
when grown artificially and fed to
horses, produced clinical forage pol
soning and death. The bacteria Is
closely related to germ bacillus boz
tulinus) that has long been known to
produce meat poisoning in man.
A serum made from bacillus botuli-
nus protected horses and guinea pigs
from the poisonous bacteria that had
been isolated from the oat straw.
A similar disease-producing germ
was isolated from corn silage which
was fatal when fed to horses. The
same serum protected horses and
guinea pigs from this bacteria.
