is FARM PRODUCING
FOODS FOR FAMILY7
One of important Factors Deter
mining Amount of income.
Garden and Live Stock Are Usually
Cared for at Times That Do Not
Materially Interfere With
Regular Farm Work.

Is the farm producing such of the
family foods as are adapted to local
conditions in ample quantities for the
welfare of the family?
The value of the family living fur
nished directly from the farm is one Of
the important factors determining the
amount of the income Of the farm and
the degree to which the farm business
is safe and profitable, says the United
State department Of agriculture. This
is especially true Of the smaller farms.
The garden and live stock which
supply the larger part of the family
food are usually cared for at times
that interfere comparatively little with
the regular farm commercial enter
prises, and by labor which otherwise
would not be utilized. Further. 1t has
been found that, up to a considerable
size of farm business, when the fam
lily food is produced on the farm, this
item, plus the fuel and shelter fur
nished by the farm, amount to an
equivalent of the rent for the entire
farm or interest on the whole farm
investment.

Rare Sugar Found in Honey.

discovery of quantity of rare sugar,
known as melezitose, which has been
extracted and purified and placed at
the disposal of the bureau of chem
istry. The weekly news letter of the
department of agriculture says that
melezitose is one of the rarest sugars.
Minute quantities of it have been avail
able to men of science for many years,
but the supply has never been suffici-
ent to permit of extensive experiment
tation. Now the United States de-
partment has several Kilograms.

can be so "sour" that even alsike will

nothing for it but to lime or to quit
clover.
On land THAI has lime but is other
wise poor and lacks organic matter
try sweet clover. 1t is no use sowing
this on "sour" soil. 1t won't thrive.
But with lime it is about the best
clover for poor land. 1t will add or
ganic matter and nitrogen and leave
such a soil in better shape for the
following crops. Sweet clover seed is
cheaper than red and in many cases
a farmer could proftably substitute
sweet clover for red in the rotation.
The questions involved in the inn
portance of clover and methods of
getting a. stand, use of lime, and
sweet clover are only touched on here.

ture will send bulletins or additional

The paIolo chooses the time for its

worms. some of them a yard or more

The palolo comes oRce again when

DRAINAGE FOR GARDEN LAND
Il Is Advisable TO Thoroughly Drain
All Soil Inclined to Contain Too
Much Moisture.

Garden land inclined to be wet
should be thoroughly drained before
crops are planted upon 1t. If tile
drains or open bitches cannot be pro-
vided, the next best thing is to plant
the crops on slight ridges, so as to
get their roots above the water table
in the soil.
