PRODUCTION OF YOUNG TREES
Unless Allowed to Overload, They Will
F: Not Be Injured by Rather ,
Early Bearing.

Growers of fruits sometimes are
alarmed because very young trees may
set rather heavy crops of fruit. Since
1T is perfectly natural for fruit trees
to bear, they will not be injured by
early production unless allowed to
overload.
AS long as tree makes a normal
growth, fruit production will not hurt
it. Peach and plum trees may pro-
tduce considerable fruit at two or three
years Of age: even when only one year
odd they sometimes begin bearing.
; Under the long system Of pruning,
(which is now being so generally prac.
:ticed, there is tendency for trees to
bear more heavily and earlier than
under the old system of heavy cutting
back. It has been noticed that despite
rather heavy fruit production at an
Iearly age. such trees will make a fine
Sgrowth and apparently there is no in
'terference with their general condi-
::tion.
; While heavy thinning may be desir:'
able in the case Of young fruit trees
they may be allowed to bear some
fruit, and the practice of those who
pull it off seems to be unwarranted In
the face Of extended observations.

Scotland is waking up to the fact
that it's lakes and waterfalls may be
made to serve other purposes than
providing scenic attractions for tour
ists. As proof Of this the "Grampian
Electricity bill'' has been given sec
ond reading In the house of commons.
In this company is empowered to
collect and use the waters Of Is lochs
and 80 small lakes, rivers, and streams
over an area Of AT square miles. @1
The waters proposed to be utilized
are estimated to be capable of gen.
Grating $1,000 horse power to supply
electricity in the counties Of Perth,
Kinross, and Forfar, and districts In
four other counties. The capital is
placed at f4,5OO, 600 ($22, ,500,O0o).
That any Of the beautiful lakes and
falls Of Caledonia stern and wild"
should be used to set the wheels of
industry spinning. many In Scotland
regard almost as sacrilegious desecra-
tion. And that opinion is shared by
not a few Americans who are accus-
toned to visit Scotland annually.
But the promoters declare that the
preservation of the natural beauties
of Scotland is expressly provided for
by the terms Of the bill. And they add
that when the hum of the electrically
driven wheels is heard in the land
and dividends begin to come in, the
cry Of "desecration' will be heard no

DANGER IN STEEL HORSESHOE
Substitution Of Copper, It ls Believed,
Will Lessen Possibility of Do.
structive Forest Fires,

Copper horseshoes as a means of
preventing forest fires have recently
made their appearance in several of
the national forests of the West, and,
If the plans Of certain forestry Off
cials are carried into effect, this metal
will supplant steel upon the hoofs of
all horses to be used on public do
mains where there is any measure of
fire hazard.
According to the supervisor of the
Angeles National forest, in southern
California, steel horseshoes used in
finty mountain regions may have been
the cause of some of the mysterious
fires that have started in the forest
reserves. Heavy steel horseshoes
striking against flint or hard granite
may readily be the source of sparks,
which, falling into dry grass or other
inflammable material, would quickly
cause it to burst into flames if famed
by breeze.
The new horseshoes were given
their first try-out recently in Gala
veras county, California. - Popular

Moth-Proof WOOL

A moth-repellant has been intro
duced in the German market, which, it
is claimed will positively make the
wool fabric absolutely moth-proof. An
additional advantage of this product,
known as Eulan F, is that it does not
discolor the fabric, so that the wool
can be dyed in bright shades without
any difficulty. The product is white
powder which does not dissolve very
easily in water. Acid must be added
to make it dissolve. In this condition
it is used in the textile mill, and it is
preferable to put the ;woolen fabric
through the moth-proofing treatment
in the factory. Another form of the
product is sold for use in the house
hold. In this form the powder will
dissolve very easily in water. The
woolen fabric is then soaked in the
solution and permitted to dry. Only a
per cent solution is required. Eulan
F is now on the market in Germany

CABBAAE ls EASY TO PRESERVE
q s5ss s AZ aKR AIyT III 8

Il
There is . splendid crop of cab
bage this year, available at q price
which commends its storage to all
prudent and economical housewives, =
says Lucy Cordiner Of the Office Of ex.
tension work with women at Univer-
sity Farm. elf you have q supply Of
cabbage larger than the quantity you
desire to store, preserve it in the form
OF sauerkraut or spiced pickle. It
will pay to purchase cabbages for this
purpose r. ..=.. I. X ( -
TO make sauerkraut the following
equipment and ingredients are needed:
An earthen jar, 10-gallon capacity.
A heavy mallet or a short 2x4.
Sharp knives or a commercial cab
bage plane or shredder.
A wooden cover or plate.
A weight.
Cheesecloth or coarse muslin.
Sixty pounds cabbage.
One-fourth pound salt. Excess of
salt prevents fermentation.)
"Sohd, firm heads Of cabbage, with
white hearts should be selected, - says
Miss Cordiner. 'Discard the outer
leaves; shred fine and place in the jar
in layers four or five inches thick.
Sprinkle lightly with salt. Then bruise
with the mallet or paddle until cabbage
appears quite moist. Repeat until all
the cabbage is in the jar. Cover with
washed cabbage leaves, then with the
wooden cover or large earthenware
plate. Weight with stone.
"Protect the kraut from dirt by
covering the jar with several layers of
cheesecloth or a coarse muslin COZ er.
Let stand in warm cellar from four
to six weeks. When the bubbles stop
forming and there is thin crust over
the brine, the kraut is ready. The up
per layer is usually soft and off flavor
and should be discarded.
"Sauerkraut is delicious served
cold. Remove from the jar, place on
salad plates and serve plain or with
a boiled salad dressing.
"To cook sauerkraut-Remove the
quantity desired from the jar, drain,
cover with boiling water and boil IN
til tender. About 20 minutes before
the kraut is cooked, CRATE a raw po-
tato into it. This improves both tex
ture and flavor. Season with any
meat, bacon or ham dripnings. Many
like the flavor Of minced onion added
shortly before cooking is finished.
Kraut is particularly liked as an ac-
compartment to sausage, roast or
boiled pork, or brisket Of beef.'

only in cases of isolated trees or

Protein Is one of the three elements
in feeds that Is necessary in order that
animals may thrive. The proportion
Of protein in feeds necessary for best
results varies with the age and charac
ter Of the animal being fed. Fol
young and growing animals and those
bearing young or producing milk, ar
average Of one pound Of protein te
five or six pounds Of other constitu
ents is about right. #
Leguminous crops, such as clovers
and alfalfas, are richer in protein than
non-leguminous crops such as timothy
bluegrass, ETC.. At present leguminous
crops are mostly grown. for forage
and when concentrates rich in protein
are needed to balance rations they
must be purchased in the form Of fax:
seed, meal, cottonseed meal or tankage.
The soybean offers partial solution
to this problem by enabling the farmer
to produce his high protein concen.
trates at home. Soybeans yield any
where from 10 to Is bushels an acre
of seed, depending on soil and season
Soybeans may be ground and used to
supplement other feeds. For. dairy
cows, when milk is to be used or but
ter production, the soybean meal must
be fed in small quantities in order that
it may not soften the butter. When
the milk is to be consumed as such,
soybean meal may be fed in larger
quantities. During the fattening stages
hogs should be fed limited amounts
since soft pork is the result.
In the ordinary faxseed oil mill, of
which Minnesota has several, from 900
to 225 pounds Of Oil can be secured per
ton Of soybean seed. With the oil re-
moved, the soybean cake has about the
same feeding value as faxseed meal
and the feeding of it does not result in
soft butter or soft pork. It is probable
that soybean seed will be raised in
sufficient quantities to develop a soy
bean oil industry in Minnesota.
When soybeans are raised for seed
they are planted in drill rows 80 to Sc
inches apart at the rate of 30 pounds
per acre about May 10 to 20 on thor
oughly prepared seed bed and cultivat-
ed the same as corn. They are allowed
to stand until the leaves have fallen
and are then cut with the binder in the
forenoon so as to avoid shattering.
They are shocked like grain and may
eiher be stacked or threshed from the
shock.
Beans are threshed with grain sep
arator with cylinder making $50 revo-
lutions per minute when the beans
are dry and $50 revolutions when they
are tough. Some cut in the forenoon
and thresh in the afternoon soybeans
cut the day before. Beans must be dry
to do this. The cost Of threshing soy
beans is about the same as for grain
when done on the same scale.-A. c..

OF EWES INCREAS-
TO T,AMB CROP

The United States Department of
Agriculture has found that tho lamb
crop can be materially increased by
extra feeding, commonly called flush
ing,' at breeding time. Given this
extra care and attention, the DEPART
ment s Southdown ewes yielded l9s
more lambs per 1000 ewes than did
Southdown ewes otherwise given the
same care and kept under the same
conditions.
The department shepherds say that
good blue grass, mixed timothy and
clover, or soybean pasture if available,
furnish the most satisfactory and
economical means of FFflushing.'
Extra feeding increased the lamb
yield in two ways-it puts the ewes in
better condition to make sure of their
getting in lamb and it increases the
proportion Of twin lambs.
