S,ain For the Kitchen Floor.

If your kitchan floor has never
been stained and you wish to use
an inexpensive stain try this.
First clean the floor and do mol
leave any spots of grease on it
Then apply coat of hot linseed oil
let it dry and after day or two
apply another coat of the hot oil.
after applying the oil rub the floor
we'll with clean mop. The oil
must be hot so it will penetrate the
pores of the wood, this makes an
ideal stain for the floor, grease spots
will not show and the floor will
not require so much scrubbing and
is more sanitary.
To heat the oil put it in double
boiler or substitute and heat it.
Then apply to the floor with a
brush or rag. 1t may be necessary
to apply three or four coats OF the
oil to get the floor well saturated
with the oil.

Home Made Walnut Stain

Agood stain for the floors may be
made from black walnuts. Gather
the walnuts any time after they
turn black and fall from the trees.
Put them in a vessel and cover
with water. Either let them stand
a day or two until the stain has
soaked out or put the vessel on the
stove and boil for Is or 20 minutes
to extract the stain. Pour this
through -four sack to strain out
all trash. Then to a gallon Of this
stain add 10 or Is cents worth OF
Permangate of potash. This stain
can be applied to the floor with a
brush or rag then rubbed over with
a dry cloth or mop to absorb any
that remains on the surface. After
waiting a day or two for this to dry
one or two coats of hot linseed
oil should be applied. 1t is
very necessary that the oil be
hot so that it will penetrate the
pores of the wood. After the boil
is applied rub the floor well with a
clean mop. After the~~first coat OF
oils applied it is we'll to wait
week or two then apply the second
coat. 1t may be necessary to put
on three coats to get the wood well
saturated with oil.
This is very economical finish for
old floors that have never been
finished in any way. Italso makes
a more sanitary floor because the
dust can be mopped up in stead
of having TO use broom and scatter
the dust so, it makes much better
looking floor.

GOOD EARLY GRAZING CROPS


Early spring pasture crops for hogs
cattle and work stock will be very
serviceable on many farms. The feed
supply usually is greatly diminished
when winter is over. Many farmers
find that the small amount Of cash on
hand at that time must be used to pro
vide food when 1t is needed for the
family. But with early grazing crops
the food crops viii sometimes hold out
till other crops are ready to use.
Rye, barley. wheat, oats, emmer are
suitable for very early planting. Some
farmers plant soon after the first OF
the year. Rape for hogs is a most ex-
cellent crop. Later peas, soybeans and
other crops may be planted. A succes
sion Of grazing crops will ave much
expense In feeding.
Fields may be arranged so that when
d b graxed out animals may be
turned onto another field and the land
planted to another crop, to be grazed
later. In this way the land devoted to
pasture may be kept producing and the
animals may have grazing when they
need II.

MAKING FRUITS ATTRACTIVE
Consumers Favor Produce With Nice
Appearance, Uniform In Size
and Color.

Consumers who buy either at the
corner grocery or of the huckster In
the cities buy by appearance. They
like to get fruit that looks nice. A
basket of apples may be just as fine
favored and have the same average
size, but If they are mixed up OF vari-
u sizes and colors the city con-
will pay considerable more
money for the basket that sits beside
Ii with uniform color and size. for II
looks more attractive. A half-dozen
small potatoes I'm a basket may cut
the price down enough TO have made
IL profitable to have thrown them
away and a %half-dozen big potatoes
with them rather than keep them.
Uniformity is the first point to keep
In mind and then quality and size
come In line. The quality may be
there but IL doesn't appeal. Catch the
eye and the sale Is half made.

To provide the heat necessary, the

PROFITABLE P0RKERS
NEVER STOP GROWING
Essential Points for Growing
Pigs Economically.
One Thing often Neglected Is Neces-
city of Keeping Young Animals
Thriving From the Moment of
Birth to Maturity.

Prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuiture)
In an exhibit entitled Pork Produc-
tion." shown by the United States De
partment Of Agriculture at the Interna-
tional Live Stock exposition, Chicago,
the department gave the essential
points for raising swine economically.
Good breeding stock. proper mating.
and careful feeding OF the brood sows
are all important, but a point In hog
raising that should receive more atten-
ton, because 1t Is often neglected. is
the necessity of keeping the young pigs
growing continuously from the moment
of birth TO maturity.
Even before the pigs are weaned
they should have access to corr In self
feeders as a supplement to the sow's
