SORGHUMS ARE GOOD
CROPS FOR SILAGE
Urged That They Be Grown More
Extensively for Feed.
Plants Need Less Moisture Than
Corn nd In Many Sections viii
Produce Larger Yield Of For
soe-Deslrable Variety.

prepared by the United states Depart
ment Of Agrieulture.)
Because sorghums are good crops to
grow for sllage in regions Of light rain
fall the United States department Of
agriculture Is urging that they be
grown more extensively In those sec
tons to insure ample feed for stock.
Sorghums need less moisture than
corn and In many sections will pro-
duce larger yield of forage per acre.
When properly made Into silage they
supply a succulent feed which has a
high feeding value. Either the saccha-
rine (sweet) or the nonsaccharine
(nonsweeD varieties are used. OF
the former the orange and amber vn-
rleties are the most desirable varI-
cites and OF the latter kafir, milo. and
feterita are common varieties. Exper-
lments at the Kansas experiment sta
ton show that sllage made from kafir
and sweet sorghum Is nearly equal in
value to corn silage for feeding cows
that produce milk. Since the differ
ence In the results was not great, It is
apparent that when the sorghums give
a considerably. larger yield per acre,
as Is the case in seasons Of drought.
and In sections where there is limited
amount of rainfall, they are the more
profitable source Of silage.
To obtain a good quality of silage
from sorghum 1t is very important that
they be cut at the proper stage of ma
turity. This stage is reached when
the seed is mature Testing the stage
Of maturity of sorghum may be done
by twisting stalk in the hands and
noting the amount of sap 1t contains.
If 1t contains much sap, the crop is
too green to be made into siIage. and
If put up at this stage sour silage is
sure to result, especially with the
sweet sorghum, which is high in sugar
content. 1t is better to risk frost than
TO put the sorghum into the sllo be
fore maturity. A crop that has not
been sliced before frost should be put
up Immediately after, and water should
be added to keep it from becoming
dry.

Plmentoes, chlyes. and hard boiled

green peppers are good In combina-
ton with lettuce. tomatoes or chicken.
Lemon sliced and sprlnkled with
chopped parsley or sprays OF parsley

salad most dainty.
Beet and Potato Salad.-Take six
beets and six potatoes, one cupful Of
chopped olives and chives, with may
onnaise dressing. Cut the cooked
beets and potatoes with potato cut
ter into small balls. Put the potatoes
In the mayonnaise dressing to which
has been added the chives and olives.
Dip the beets in vinegar and dish al

Poinsettia Salad.-Take six tomatoes,
stalk of celery, a sweet green pepper
and three apples, one-half cup Of wal
nut meats and mayonnaise dressing.
Scald the tomatoes, chill them and

sions from the top center over half

the skin to form five petals, scoop out
the pulp and fill with apple, celery
and nuts. Heap a little extra dress
ing on each and garnIsh with ring
of green pepper.
Jellled Egg saIad.-Take one quart
Of chicken Jelly; this may be made
very economically by cooking a half
dozen pairs or more Of chickens feet.
Scald. then cut of the toes and skin,
then cook in a quart or more Of water
until the flesh falls from the bones.
Slice the eggs, using six. and stir them
gently in the cooling Jelly so they
will be evenly mixed. When cold

mayonnaise dressing and parsley or
water cress.
Fruit Salad with Orange Dressing.
Take half pound Of dates, scald-

chop all but the grapes and mix well
with a dressing made by using one
fourth of cup of orange Juice, three

HOW
RHEUMATISM
BEGINS

The excruciating agonies Of rheuma-
bsm are usually the result of failure Of
Z the kidneys TO expel poisons from the
system. If the irritation Of these uric
acid crystals is allowed to continue, in-
durable bladder or kidney disease may
result. Attend to it at once. Don't
resort to temporary relief. The sick
kidneys must be restored to health by
the use Of some sterling remedy which
will prevent a return Of the disease.

clans examination and thorough one,
including a blood test. 1t will pay
parents and 1t will be profitable for
the state and patton to see that every
child is examined every year. By the
system Of height and weight charts
sent out by the children's bureau, any
mother may know whether her child
approaches the normal or not and. If
underwelght, he should be examined at
once.
Children need whole wheat. Other
cereals may be used for variety. They
need fat. particularly butterfat. which
contains the wonderful substance
which promotes growth. They should
have sugar in moderate quantities and
an abundance Of fruit and fresh vege-
tables, especially those like spinach,
chard and lettuce, for in them also is
this life-promoting principle found in
milk, butter and cream.
Another food that a well-nourished
Nchild should have is the egg. Serve
one in some form daily for each child.
Then fruit of various kinds, orange
Juice particularly. are good for infants.
Prunes. figs. dates and raisins when
well masticated or cooked, are most
wholesome for children. Apples, baked,
are especially good; bananas when
thoroughly ripe and scraped to free
them from the stringy fibers are also
good. As each fruit has some valuable
property in itself 1t is wise to have a
variety. Children fed on prunes with
no other fruit will develop scurvy. so
that orange juice with potatoes is
recommended for that trouble. The
young child can take orange juice; the
older ones are able to take potatoes.
Fish, If fresh and carefully cooked,
is a food which may be given children
in place of meat. Poultry. If one can
afford It, is another good food for the
child. Cornmeal, mush, rice and pota-
toes once day to young children are
all good foods, provided they are well
cooked.
