More Community Houses.

The community house idea is one
which is gaining in popularity in many
towns. Peterborough, N. H., has a
fine modern building for the purpose
which was designed in the Georgian
style. There is hall with seating
capacity of 200 to 300, which is used
for various social meetings; three
rooms, which are occupied by the His
torical society's collection, as well as
one wing which is used for the rooms
of the mems club, and another for the
women's. The building was the gift
to the town of former Gov. Robert
Bass and his mother.
Hamilton. Mass. too, can boast a
community house, also in Georgian
style. 1t was given as war memorial
by prominent citizen. These are
only few of the towns which in one
form or another are thus showing
their realization of the value of CO.
operation and community spirit.

Rosen Rye Superior as
Fall Pasture for Hogs

Rosen rye is coming to be recog-
nized as one of the best late fall pas.
ture crops for swine, say the farm crop
specialists at Iowa State college. The
crop is especially adapted to poor and
under-cultivated soil. Rosen rye, which
was developed at the Michigan expert
ment station, has been found superior
to other varieties at the Iowa station.
Rye finds one Of its best uses as fall
pasture for swine. For this purpose it
should be seeded during the latter part
Of August or in the month of Septem-
Der. A seeding of from two and half
to three bushels per acre is recon-
mended. Rye winters very well and
can be used again in the spring as a
pasture or harvested for grain. Rye
may also be ground and used in q
slop as hog feed. e.5 sN

Garlic Cause Of
Big Wheat Loss
Makers of Flour Discrimi-
nate Against Product
Containing It.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Wheat containing the blilblets OF
garlic or wild onion is Disseminated
against by millers and often is sold at
price ranging from 20 to 80 per cent
lower than No. 2 Soft Red Winter, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The farmer in
the Atlantic coast region from Massa-
chusetts to Georgia and as far inland
as Missouri, where garlic is prevalent,
harvests the garlic bulblets with his
wheat. These are about the size and
shape of wheat grains, and the two
are difficult to separate, so that wheat
containing them can be sold only at a
discount. Bread made from garlicky
-four, especially if eaten warm, has a
pronounced odor and garlicky flavor.
The money loss from garlic runs into
millions of dollars annually.
Damage and Loss.
A survey made by the department
Of the damage and loss resulting from
this weed in the state of Maryland and
part of Pennsylvania where it is par
ticularly bad, shows that practically
all wheat produced in Maryland is in
tested with garlic Garlicky wheat has
decidedly lower milling value than
wheat free from garlic. due to the
greater risk from spoilage, to extra
cleaning or preparation required for
milling, to the lower flour yields OBJ
tanned, to the greater cost of manu-
facture, and to the lower market value
of the flour product Discounts for
flour made from garlicky wheat vary
from 25 cents to 81 barrel.
BulbIets Sown Each Year.
Methods Of eradication through
readily applicable cultural practices
suggested by the department have
proved to be successful wherever en-
ployed, yet the survey shows that
large quantities of the bulblets are be-
ing sown each year, through failure to
get clean seed or through a failure to
realize the extent of infestation in
the seed being sown. Estimates made
from samples taken from grain drills
In the Maryland fields in the fall OF
1921, show that as high as 100000
bulblets to- the acre were sown with
the wheat in one case, the minimum
being around 5000 per acre. Nearly
every farmer interviewed admitted
that there was a small amount of gar
Tic in his wheat, but frequently this
small amount upon analysis proved to
be 90 or more bullets for each pound
of wheat.

NUT TREES OF GREAT VALUE
Not Only For Their Product, but for
Their, Timber, They Are Highly
Desirable.

The American Tree association, an
organization devoted to the encourage
ment of arboriculture, asks why nut
trees should not be planted along the
waysides Of this country. both for use
and beauty. The obvious answer is
that they should. It happens that the
nut trees of this country are almost
without exception desirable, not only
for their nuts, but for every reason
that makes tree-planting worth while.
They are mostly trees Of large size;
they are beautiful; and when they are
cut the timber which they supply is of
high quality.
In his recent work on 'Trees as
Good Citizens" Charles Lathrop Pack
mentions an instance where a black
walnut grew from the seed in Penn
sylvania and bore seven nuts in its
fourth year. That, Of course, was an
extraordinarily precocious walnut. but
the tree in ordinary cases grows rap
idly enough to satisfy any reasonable
man, and, unlike the growth of poplars
and soft naples, it lives to great old
age.-Detroit Free Press.

Killing Potato Bugs by
Using Arsenate of Lead

Arsenate of lead is one of the best
poisons to use, and for liquid spray
should be mixed at the rate of 1.5
pounds of powdered arsenate of lead
to 80 gallons of water. In small
amounts one-half ounce or one heap
Ing tablespoonful to gallon of water
gives the same strength. "A little water
should first be added to the powder
and stirred until it makes thin
smooth paste. This paste can then be
stirred into the, required amount of
water and the solution is ready for
use.
With good buster or dust gun a
mixture of one part powdered arsenate
of lead and fifteen parts of air-slaked
or hydrated lime will be quite effec-
tive in killing the beetles.
A mixture Of one part of paris green
to twenty parts of lime is also effec-
tive. If no buster is available the
mixture can be applied by shaking it
ON the plants through cheese-cloth
bag. The dust sticks to the plants
better if applied when the dew is on.

Pasturing Sweet Glover
to Prevent Woodines

Sweet clover has been condemned
by many because 1t grows too rank
and becomes so woody that stock will
not eat it. This is true if it is not
pastured heavily enough to keep it
down. But If enough animals are kept
on it SO that it does not get more
than nine or ten inches high, new
shoots will be produced continuously
which will be tender and paIatable. II
enough stock is not available to keep
the sweet clover at the proper height,
part of 1t should be moved for hay,
say the agronomists of the Nebraska
Agricultural college. 1t should be
moved high enough Qeave stubble at
least eight inches tally so that plenty
of live buds are left on the side of
the stems to produce a new crop. Un.
like alfalfa, it does not send up new
shoots from the crown after it has
attained considerable growth the
second year.
