EHY FACTS FOR FARMERS The Family Garden. People who have not made a study of gardening arc sometimes puzzled to know how much of each kind of vegetable to plant. The following quantities will be sufficient to supply an average family, say of six persons. Asparagus Furrows twenty feet long and three feet apart Artichokes One ounce of seed will furnish an ample supply. Pole Beans Two quarts planted one week apart. Lima Beans One quart planted one week apart. Beets Two ounces of seed. Brussels Sprouts One ounce of seed. This Is one of the most de licious vegetables raised and should be In every garden. Carrots One ounce of seed. Cauliflower One ounce of seed. This Is another excellent vegetable which Is much neglected In the aver age farm garden. Celery One ounce of seed will pro duce about fifteen hundred plants. Sweet Corn One pint of seed for each planting. This should be plant ed about ten days apart. Cucumbers One-half ounce of seed ' will plant twenty-five hills. Lettuce One-half ounce of seed. Sow ten days apart. . . Peas Did anybody ever raise too many peas? Plant one quart at a planting about ten days apart. Peppers One-half ounce of seed. Radishes Sow one-half ounce ev ery three weeks. Rhubarb One dozen roots will last a famly a lifetime. Squash One ounce of seed will will plant about twenty hills. Turnips One ounce of seed sown broadcast will produce a nig cast. Sow thinly and no not be afraid to thin out after the plants come up. Amateur gardeners often make the mistake of planting vegetables too close together. Plants having large follago such ts tomatoes, peaa and beans should be given plonty of room in order that the sunshine may reach all parts. Profit In Sheep. Cold weather never effects a sheep but dampness la fatal In time. It Is estimated that ten sheep can be kept where one cow can, and the risk Is much less. It may be said that the sheep always carries her pocketbook with her. If she dies, her pelt or fleece pays her funeral expenses. If she lives her wool In the spring and her lambs in the fall pay double revenue. No oth er stock pays as large a percentage of clear profit on the money Invested. Rest the Home's Feet. Every farm horse should, If possi ble, be allowed to go without his shoes at least two or three months every year. In fact, It Is hardly necessary to shoo a horso on the farm unless he is to go on the hard roads or work on the hard soil where he is required to do much heavy pulling. Without shoes a horse's hoof will grow out, regain its natural shape which Is al ways more or less changed by contln uous shoeing. Many city horses with hoofs bound and cracked and otherwise Injured, have been taken to a f:irm. their shoos pulled off and turned out to pasture and thoroughly cured within six months. In fact the farmers around the large cities used to find In this class of animal a cheap sup ply, many of which turned out to be first class horses, showing that all that was needed was rest on Mother Earth without their shoes. Fortworth Star. Sweet oil is a safe medicine to ad minister to animals. It never Injures, hut Is valuable In choking, bloating, Inflammation or constipation of the stomach or bowels. Swine Note. Don't select a heavy, lazy sow for a breeder. She should be mild In disposition, but possessed of sufficient energy to take exercise. A pure bred hog will mature and come Into money more quickly than a scrub and bring more money for the snnie weight at that. Red clover in bloom is not good for hogs, but when young It makes a fine pasture. Neither rape nor clover alone will do for growing, fattening hogs. They must have some grain twice a day for best results. NEWS OF THE Horticulture Board's New Members. Salem, Ore.
