from your county agent
Old Tablccloths.- Don't use old
table linen or sheets for rags until
you have tried making them over.
If you cant mend them, frequently.
they can be made into napkins and
pillow cases. February Is good
time to 80 over your linens.
Sweet Potato Seed.-Look out for
your supply of sweet potatoes for
bedding purposes. wilt or stem-rot
(yellow blight and black-rot are SER
ious sweet potato diseases. Secure
disease free seed, preferably from
vine cuttings.
Feeding Brood Sows.-Brood sows
should have feed that is rich in pro-
tens, such as alfalfa hay. wheat
shorts or tankage, when pasture Is
not available. Tho greatest develop
ment Of the unborn pig takes place
during the last sixty days of the ges-
tation period. hence the importance
of feeding brood sows from now until
farrowing time.
Poultry Selectlon.-One of the
quickest and surest ways of getting
improvement in poultry is through
selection. Too many people have
quantity, to the exclusion Of quality

ARGENTINA AS A RIVAL

We are accustomed to think OF Ar
gentiEe Republic as a source Of grain
exports into the United States and as
a great livestock country. But a press
dispatch published last Friday told of
a shipment to be made next Tuesday
from Buenos Aires of ten tons of vege-
tables and fruits, including a quantity
of tomatoes, on a steamer sailing for
New York. 1t says the shipping board
and representatives of the department
Of commerce will expedite the trans
portation of the cargo.
Another shipment will be made about
the middle OF February of a sample
cargo of five tons of fresh peaches,
plums and grapes from Mendoza, Ar
gentine's great fruit province. Free
transportation will be given this ship
ment to this country Gin the hope that
it will lead TO the establishment of a
permanent market in the United States
during the North American winter sea
son for South American summer
fruits" These shipments win require a
voyage of sixteen days each and Will be
made in refrigerated ships.
Argentina extends from the tropics
to the southern extremity of South
America. It is a country of vast plains
and, on the western side, OF some of
the highest peaks of the lofty Andes
It's soil varies from sterile to some of
the richest to be found anywhere.
