chicken corn has persisted in the river
bottom lands of northern Kentucky.

's~'-ND ~ hch ehSih hthtuChys
The method OF control practiced by
many Henderson county farmers Is to
delay planting corn unit 1.-The seeds OF
the chicken corn have sprouted. The
resulting seedlings are killed by cul-
tivation during planting. Since chick
en- corn is an annual, It should be
readily destroyed during the cultiva-
ton of the corn. A suggestion that
may be Of value in getting rid OF the
weed is to induce autumn termination
Of the seeds by surface cultivation Of
the land after harvest with an imple-
ment such as the drag harrow. The
resulting seedlings will be killed by
the frosts of winter.
A feature that makes eradication of
the chicken corn difficult In the bot
tom lands of the Ohio River Is the fact
that large part of the land Is subject
to floods late in the spring and early
in the fall. The flood waters carry a
multitude Of seeds Of chicken corn and
spread them evenly over the land.
This SUGGESTS that the ultimate solu-
ton of the problem lies in the coop

Good Care In Storing Stops Loss in
| WOOlens.

Much waste and loss In wooden
clothes and bedding can be avoided by
thoroughly cleaning the materials and
garments before they are put away for
the summer, according to Miss Ele-
amor Enright, field agents in clothing
from the College of Agriculture. Moths
are the chief source Of trouble in stor-
inf materials Of this kind and for this
reason care should be taken to see
that they are free from the pests be-
fore being put away. In the Southern
states moths may get into the cloth
ing and bedding at any time even
though they are more active in winter.
"The greatest safeguard against the
ravages Of the moth Is to have the ma
terials washed or cleaned before they
are folded, wrapped and put away
Miss Enright said: "If clothes are not
to be cleaned they should be thorough
ly brushed and aired and hung in the
sunlight before put away. After WOOL
en- blankets and comforters have re-
ceived this treatment they should be
folded carefully, wrapped in heavy pa
per and stored in a dust-proof contain
err. If the container Is labelled plainly
so that any one can know at glance
what the contents are much confusion
can tbe avoided In opening a great
number Of boxes when in search Of a
particular article.
eff moths are already In the mate
rails it will be of little use to prac-
tice any of the remedies usually sug
gested but 1t is we'll to know those
which are most effective in preventing
damage by these pests. Experiments
have shown that naptholene is partic-
ularly effective in protecting woolens
from moths. Red cedar chips kill adult
moths and also are effective in driving
moths away when used freely Any of
these remedies are effective If eggs of
the moths are not already In the cloth.
"In putting away clothing care
should be taken to see that it is clean
and dry and that parts easily crushed,
such az sleeves are filled wits soft
paper. Care also should be taken to
see that lapels and silimalr places are
free from dust which might harbor the
moths. Heavy clothes should not be
allowed to hang all summer as the
weight of the garment will pull the
shoulders and bias seams out of
shape

CHICKEN CORN, AN UNUSUAL
WEED, FOUND IN KENTUCKY.

During the weed survey now being
conducted by the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture, the county
agent of Henderson county, KY, COM
planned of sorghum like plant grow
ing wild on the river bottom corn land
where 1t Is known as wild corn. He
described the plant as serious weed
that annually ruins many square miles
of corn land in his county. The weed
was said to be difficult to identity while
young and growing In the corn rows
on account of its resemblance to
young corn. During some seasons, the
plan damaged the corn so seriously
that the crops were not even harvest
ed.
Specimens of the weed were obtain
ed by the United States Department of
Agriculture and identified as chicken
corn. scientifically known as Andro-
pOeOH sOI Buuui, var LII ulhhhohuh' a
variety Of wild sorghum that closely
resembles the cultivated black amber
sorog. Teh unexpected discovery that
chicken corn occurs over an extended
area in Kentucky is considered inter-
eresting because formely It was album
dant only in Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana and western Florida.
Chicken corn has a very interesting
history. It was thought to have been
originally brought to America by the
early slave traders. It became wide
spread from Louisiana as far north as
Henderson, Ky. In the Southern
Soastal States 1t grew as volunteer
crop and was valued by many as hay
plant and far fall pasture. The plant
was attacked by the sorghum nudge,
and as the mide became widespread,
the chicken corn practically disap-
peared. Since Henderson, KY, is too
far north for the sorghum nudge to
thrive this probably explains why the

New York. - In one ofe the smartly
gay restaurants Of this city are two
tablets, memorials to sentiment, i'm
bedded in the walls. 1t doesn't seem a
New Yorky sort of thing to find, ex-
cept that almost anything in the world
can be considered belonging here.
Anyway: two men met the women who
became their wives in this restaurant,
the Beaux Arts, and in spite Of all the
husbands who forget wedding ami
versaries every year, these two men
made a romantic gesture to the i'm
portance Of the event. The jewelled
tablets are in the. grill. Both are
bronze plaques inlaid in alcoves and
enclosed in glass. The first is set with
a fiery opal and carries the mystic in
scription, Happy Dawn, September
1906" Andre Bustonoby, the proprie-
tor, remembers who put it there, but
he does not tell. The other tablet was
the work Of we'll known New York
lawyer, It is set with large turquoise
ande engraved, "a, and L. Acre Peren-
MUS XVMIX." The inscription for
both came from a similar tablet in the
walls of the art room of the cafe, put
there by friends Of Louis Bustonoby
founder of the place, on his return

Laying Ration Is Best For Poultry
On Range.

Best results in feeding growing
poultry stock on the range are OBJ
tanned by giving the birds regular
laying ration, according to results OBJ
tanned by the Kentucky Agricultural
Experiment Station in trials which 1t
conducted. The ration fed was COM
posed Of grain and mash feed, the
mash being made up Of 100 pounds of
bran, 100 pounds of shorts, 100 pounds
Of corn meal, 100 pounds of ground
oats and 100 pounds of tankage or
commercial meat scraps. The grain
feed was made up of 300 pounds of
cracked corn and 300 pounds of wheat.
The mash was kept before the
chicks at all times in self-feeder
thus allowing them to eat whenever
they were hungry and saving much
time and trouble. The grain was fed
o nthe ground both morning and eve
ming.
When sour milk or buttermilk was
available the tankage Of meat scraps
were left out of the ration and the
checks given al 1.-The milk they would
drink. The milk was fed in pans
which we're thoroughly washed and
scalded at least once each week. 1t
was found that 100 pounds Of skim
milk equalled six pounds of tankage
in feeding value.
In addition to the dry mash which
was given the birds, oyster shell, grit
and coarse ground bone were always
available.
