Quick Releasing

That puff Of blue smoke from
the exhaust just as the speed OF
the car slackens and the foot is
taken off the aCcelerator has a
mea ming all its own.
When an engine is running fast
and the throttle is suddenly closed
the suction within the cylinders is
great enough to suck oil up past
the piston rings This, in burning,
causes the blush smoke from the
exhaust.
Sudden acceleration may be
wasteful. but it Is equally true of
sudden deceleration, even if the
brakes are not applied. One wastes
gas. the other oil.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
More cakes are spoiled In the bak-
ing than even hungry schoolboy ever
dreamed of, says the bureau of home
economics Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
The heat of baking does five things
to cake batter during baking. 1t
speeds up the baking powder or other
chemical used for leavening In form
ing gas and so causes the cake to rise.
1t makes some of the liquid in the bat
ter change to water vapor, which also
aids In leavening. 1t hardens the pro-
teins, particularly. the gluten in the
flour and the albumen of the egg so
that after the cake rises 1t sets and
remains light. 1t cooks the starch In
the flour and takes away its unpleas-
ant raw taste and browns the crust.
The chief knack in baking then is to
regulate the temperature so that the
cake will set as soon as enough gas
and water vapor have formed, but be-
fore they have time to escape or con-
dense.
The right temperature depends on
the kind of leavening, whether the
batter is thick or thin, and on the

Cattle Liable to Bloat
on Fresh Spring Grass

Cattle turned out on new clover pas
lures, especially when wet, are sus-
ceptible to bloating, and Iowa reports
heavy losses from this cause last year.
This trouble is particularly apt to
appear after late, backward springs,
when grass starts quickly and grows
lush and rank.
When cattle eat such fresh grass
rapidly. 1t is apt to ferment In their
stomachs, making gas which causes
the bloat. The direct cause of death
from bloating is commonly suffoca-
ton. The stomach, or rumen, swells
up so as to press on the diaphragm
enough to prevent breathing. The
bloat may also rupture the stomach.
In either case, death Is likely to oc-
cur in from half an hour to three or
four hours.
AS in many difficulties, says the New
York State College of Agriculture at
Ithaca, the traditional ounce of pre-
vention is worth several pounds of
cure, and cattle should never be turned
on fresh grass or clover pastures when
they are wet with rain or dew, or
when the cattle are very hungry. Civ
ing the cattle feed of hay just, before
turning them out is always a good
safeguard.
Even when pastures are not wet, It
is poor practice to salt cattle heavily
before turning them out, as they are
apt to drink great deal of water i'm
mediately after filing up on grass,
which makes them bloat.

The chief point about making and
serving club sandwiches successfully
is to have all the different ingredients
assembled conveniently so that when
the toast is ready the sandwiches can
be put together without delay and
served before the toast has chance
to cool appreciably. Experience has
shown that it Is best to cut the slices
of toast in half before the filling Is

GUINEAS ARE BEST
PEST DESTROYERS

The guinea Is native of Africa and
is best suited to warm country,
though they will do well In the lati-
tude Of West Virginia and Indiana,
writes A. J. Legg Of West Virginia in
the Rural New Yorker. There are
two breeds of guineas In this country,
the pearl and the white guinea. Both
are about the same nature, the main
difference being that of color.
Both breeds are of a wild, nervous
nature and enjoy travelling all over
the farm In search Of bugs and worms.
They can be taught to return home at
night and to. roost in the poultry
house.
Guineas are about the best insect
destroyers that have ever tried; they
prefer worms and bugs to grain,
though they will eat some grain.
have seen them eating currant worms
and Colorado beetles, two pests that
chickens pass by without molesting.
/ have also seen guineas killing field
mice. To anyone who wants to turn
crop pests into a valuable product /
would recommend flock of guineas
for the purpose.
The guinea is a good summer egg
producer begins laying in April and
If kept from sitting she will continue
to produce eggs until late in the fall.
The hens lay an egg every day while
they do lay and an average of about
100 eggs to the hen may be expected
from a flock in a season. The eggs
are not as large as the chicken eggs,
but are of a better flavor and have a
harder shell.
To anyone who Is thinking of rails
ing guineas l would recommend that
they buy eggs and hatch them under
chicken hens rather than to buy old
guineas, as the old guineas are liable
to range away and not come back to
their new home. The best season for
the young guineas to be Matched Is
June and July, as they delight in
warm, dry weather but cannot stand
cold, wet season.
A good-sized hen can cover twelve
eggs very well. AS soon as they
hatch they should be inclosed In a
close box or coop for few days until
they learn their adopted mothers call,
else they may stray away in the weeds
and grass and get lost. A young
guinea Is like the grouse or quail and
will hide when scared.
After the guineas are few days
old they become very much attached
to their adopted mother and will fol-
low her until grown. They should
have free range with shelter only
when it is raining.
Only few male birds should be
kept about, one for eight or ten hens.
In this way they will go in flocks and
several hens will lay in the same nest.

shape and size of the pan. The thick
batter of fruit cake baked in a loaf,
for instance, takes longer to heat
through than the rather thin batter of
cup cakes in small pans, and the fruit
cake needs lower temperature and
longer baking.
For most cakes, IL the temperature
Is right at the start, it need not be
changed during baking. A reliable
oven thermometer or an automatic
temperature regulator that has been
tested is the surest means of know
ing when the temperature is right. A
suitable thermometer may be bought
at relatively low cost and used in any
type Of oven.
The oven door should be opened
only when necessary and the pan
should be moved as little as possible
while the batter is setting.
Cakes may generally be considered
done when they shrink from the pan,
but for safety they may be tested with
clean straw or toothpick.
When the pans are taken from the
oven they should be turned upside
down until the cake cools partially
and becomes firmer. Cake is too soft
and hot for handling when it first
comes from the oven. 1t should be
removed from the pan, however, be-
fore it reaches room temperature or
has chance to sweat.

GROUND RYE PART
OF SWINE RATION

AS feed for swine, rye meal ranks
a trifle below corn meal. and is pos
sibly about equal to barley meal. 1t
should be fed with middlings, bran or
ground oats or ground barley, and
probably not more than 30 per cent Of
the feed should be rye meal, always
provided that the balance Of the feed
Is not too fine and heavy. Fed alone
or in large amounts to swine, or any
other farm animal for that matter,
ground rye Is very apt to cause diges-
tive disturbances. 1t Is not likely to
be as palatable, either, when first
tried.
Poor results often secured with
ground rye for hogs, particularly to
breeding sows, is quite likely trace
able to ergot bodies In the grain. This
ergot is poisonous and is, besides, very
apt to induce abortion. Only clean
rye fit for market demands, as far as
freedom from ergot Is concerned,
should be used as feed. When facili-
ties are not at hand for grinding rye

will be helpful. Pigs on good pasture
might get along well enough on a
rather generous rye diet, where pigs
confined In winter dry lots would de-
velop bad symptoms Of digestive dis
turbance when rye Is fed in unlim-
tied amounts.
In Michigan tests a few years ago
corn and tankage was compared to
settled, free-choice rations of rye and
tankage, rye, barley and tankage, and
rye, corn, barley and tankage. Best
daily gains were made on corn and
tankage, with rye, barley, corn and
tankage in second place. Rye and
tankage showed up the poorest in re
spect to gains. To make 100 pounds
Of pork, the pigs ate 139 pounds of
ground rye, So pounds Of ground bar
ley, 239 pounds of corn, and 80 pounds
of tankage. In fairly safe ration
with rye there should be about twice
as much corn as ground rye, about
three times as much ground rye as
ground barley. and about twice as
much barley as tankage. This would
be true where one has a lot of rye to
feed, but where there are other farm
grains In equal abundance and no
extra desire to get rid of excess rye
feed, ration with oats or middlings
added, and with less rye in the mix

Ducks Demand Plenty of

Give the ducks animal food of some

them also mineral feed In the way of

grain and green food. Keep water in
