"Dianond Lake,

Nature, working deep beneath the

AGRICULTURE

Hungarian vetch- is one of the
many promising forage crops intro
duced in the United States by the De-
partment of Agriculture. First inn
portations Of seed were made in 1905
but it was not until 1912 that the
strain beng developed at the present
time was brought over from France.
The crop has been most extensively
tested in the Pacific Coast States,
where it is especially well adapted,
but it has also done we'll in expert
mental tests in the Southern States.
its winter hardness, resistance to
aphlds good seed habits, and adapta-
ton to poorly drained lands make 1t
desirable for extended trial through
out the Cotton Belt the department
believes.
Hungarian vetch is much less why
than common vetch or hairy vetch.
One of it's most striking character
istics is it's ability to grow on heavy
wet lands and still produce far crop.
While there have been no feeding
tests to determine the relative value
of Hungarian vetch as compared to
other vetches and hays, dairy lows at
the experiment station at Corvallis,
Oregon, have consumed it readily.
The crop also makes good pasture
and is valuable as green manure
crop.
Hungarian vetch should be sown in
the fall in all regions having mild
winter conditions. This means SOW
ing about the first of September in
the Southwestern States. In western
Oregon and Washington the best
seeding time is with the first fall
rains during September and October.
In regions having severe winters,
however fall planting is impractical
and paintings made as early in the
spring as the ground can be worked
will give the best results. Seed is be-
ing produced in western Oregon and
at present this is the only place where
it is being grown. The United States
Department of Agriculture has at
present none of this seed for general
distribution.

Quite pretty wedding was SOL
emnized in the Episcopal Church Eas-
ter Monday at high noon, when Miss
Sabra Houston, daughter of Mrs.
Frank Houston and Horace CULLEN
of Berlin We're united in matrimony.
The bride was given away by her
uncle William Glib of New York. The
Maid of Honor was her sister, Miss
Henrietta Houston. The BRIDES maids
were Miss Cecilia Houston and Miss
Orwell of Virginia. The ushers were
Horace Davis, Jr., of Berlin; and Mr..
CULLEN of Berlin and John Hooston,
brother Of the bride. Horace Davis
of Berlin, oncle of the groom was best
man.
The bride wore white crepe with
long tulle veil and carried Easter
lilies. The maids wore dresses in
an orchid, flame and blue taffeta and
wore black hats. The church was
beautifully decorated with evergreens
Easter lilies, etc. Her brother Levin
Houston played the wedding marches.
A wedding breakfast was served at
the home TO the immediate families
before the wedding and after recep-
ton w asgiven the friends and we'd
ding party, after which the bride
donned her travelling gown and amid
showers of rice and confetti left on
their honeymoon in their auto for
parts unknown. The out of town

Picking Them

A commercial traveller visiting q
Glasgow warehouse made bet with
the manager that he would pick
out all the married men among the
employees.
Accordingly he stationed himself at
the door as they returned from din.
ner, and mentioned all those whom
he believed to be married. In almost
every case he was right.
"How do you do it?" asked the
manager.
"Oh, it's quite simple" said the trav-
eler. '"The married men wipe their
feet on the mat; the single ones don't"

buildings converted into poultry
houses locate them on high or slop-
ing ground if possible, but always on
dry and we'll drained soil. The a.
mount Of floor space to be allowed
each fowl varies somewhat with con-
ditions, but on farm or where the
birds can be out Of doors nearly ev-
cry day the department has found
that about 2k square feet of floor
space per bird in focks of 20 is e.
nough. In a village or city or in a
climate where there is good deal Of
snow making it necessary to confine
the birds closely, or S square feet
per bird is needed. The interior of
the house should be simple convent
ent, and easy to clean.
The converted poultry house may
or may not have floor. If the house
is on dry, sandy soil dirt floor is
usually quite satisfactory although
often more damp than board or &C.
ment floors. Fresh gravel and sand
must be added from time to time to
keep them sanitary. If board floors
are used, make them tight and
smooth so as to make them dry and
easy to clean. If possible, build board
floors or 10 inches from the ground
to allow circulation of air and to
prevent rats from harboring under
them. Cement floors, especially for
large houses, are quite satisfactory,
as they keep rats out and last much
longer than board floors. They must
be kept we'll covered with litter, how
ever department workers say, to
make them warm and comfortable
for the flock.

that will be nine-ten-elevens, won't
