most common in fall and early winter

Bamboo Can Be Raised
for Table Use in This
Country as in China

An agricultural explorer from the de-
in China investigating the possibility
Of introducing new and promising
plants into the. United States. His
experiences are rather interesting.
The Industrious Chinese have devel-
oped from their native vegetation q
surprisingly large number Of improved
varieties that are admirably suited to
their local conditions. Many of the
plants should be equally successful
in the United States. The expert
mentioned refers to the popularity of
edible bamboo shoots in China, not to
speak Of Japan, and says that when
they are of good variety they are a
vegetable dish that has no rival. Their
crispness and their freshness of flavor
appeal to nearly every one the first
time he eats them. Foreigners in the
Orient become as partial to bamboo
sprouts as Americans are to aspara-
gus.
The varieties that are cultivated for
their shoots are generally grown in
gardens close to the house, and are
heavily MANFRED, in order to insure a
maximum Of sprouts and the greatest
tenderness Of texture. In California
and some of the southern states are
groves of one species that are produc-
ing sprouts nearly, If not quite, equal
to those raised in the Orient.
1t is believed that the bamboo can
be cultivated for table use in this
country as successfully as in China,
for the Chinese colonies in our large
cities afford ready market and Chi
nese restaurants consume large guam
titles In soups and other dishes. More
over, there are many Americans who
have acquired in the East liking for
the shoots, and would be glad to buy
them If they could get them.

INSPECT SHIPMENTS OF EGGS
Federal Food Inspectors of Depart
ment Of Agriculture Watch for
Violations of Law.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Interstate shipments of eggs are be-
ing watched closely during the hot
months by federal food inspectors of
the department of agriculture, in order
that appropriate action may be taken
when such shipments violate the law.
Shipments containing eggs which
have yOlks stuck to the shell, moldy
eggs, black spots, mixed rots, added
eggs, and any other eggs which are
filthy, decomposed or putrid, are in
violation of the law.
Careful Gambling before shipment
will enable dealers to eliminate the
bad eggs. The elimination of the
spoiled or partially spoiled eggs be-
fore shipment not only removes the
hazard Of violating federal and state
food laws, but it is economical in that
1t saves shipping charges on eggs like
ly to be rejected at place of receipt. A
number Of states have laws or regula-
tions specifically requiring the Gambling
of all eggs placed on sale.
Directions as to how to candle eggs.
as well as information regarding the
best methods of pr cking, shipping and
storing eggs, will be sent upon request
to the United States department of
agriculture, Washington.

1t was the one campaign wherein re-

now being placed upon the educational
features of poultry work to insure
greater efficiency In management. The

content in the future with an average
egg yield of six or seven dozen for
each hen, when 1t is known that the
average yield should be from nine to

Black Sanchez. Pirate.

I rested in my berth for a long time

ing to figure out the true meaning OF
all these occurrences. I felt that
could understand the interest exhib
tied by Dorothy Fairfax, and, greatly
as I already admired her, I was moi
egotist enough to even imagine thai
her effort to serve me had basis in any
personal attraction. But what about
Lieutenant Sanchez? Why was this
unknown Spaniard already so openly
my enemy? Could 1t be because Of
Dorothy Fairfax? I felt finally that !

reasoning jealousy of his race.

no yagrant thought that her interest
in me was any more than passing
fancy, born of sympathy and de,
sire to aid. Nevertheless, as she had
thus already served me, 1 now OWED
her service in return, and here was the
first call. If conditions made it pos
sible 1t was my plain duty to place
myself between these two.
