POTATO CHARACTER.
Signs of Good Keeping and Good Cook
ing Quality.
The characteristics of potatoes as to
keeping quality and general excellence
become very apparent about this time
Of year and should be borne in mind
When the question of seed for another
crop comes up.
Potatoes of a corky appearance or
touch are usually preferred to the
Bl&ooth and clear skinned tubers. This
appearance or touch is in some in-
Stances a variety characteristic, but in
TUBES SHOWING SKIN BUPTCKKS.
general it Indicates a degree of matu
rity or development which promises
good cooking quality. On the other
hand, the potatoes of smooth and clear
kin are oftentimes excessively wa
tery or immarare.
The presence of lentlcels that Is,
bodies of cells which during growth
enlarge and rupture the skin Is not ob
jectionable, for they usually Indicate
normal growth and development In a
healthy environment.
In an Investigation of the quality of
potatoes carried on by J. W. Gilmore
at the New York Cornell experiment
tatlon parts considered in the physical
examination were the surface or skin,
the cortical layer or portion immedi
ately under the skin and varying from
.1 to .5 Inch in thickness, the external
medullary area that is, the main
tarcby part of the tuber and the In
ternal medullary area or central por
tion of the potato, which often branches
Into the external medullary area and Is
more or less translucent on account of
its high moisture content.
As regards the skin, it was noted that
uneven tubers with deep eyes were un
desirable for market, while a netted
kin indicated maturity and, as a gen
eral rule, good quality. A smooth skin
Indicated immaturity, and hence poor
keeping quality and a tendency toward
undesirable flavor. Scabby potatoes
were often mealy and of good color,
but undesirable from the market stand
point Tubers which had grown in
part exposed to the air were heavy and
aoggy when cooked and of poor color
and undesirable flavor.
In general it was found that when
the cortical layer is thick and dense
the tubers are of poor quality, and this
condition is an indication that they
grew near the surface, where the tem
perature and moisture conditions were
more variable than deeper in the soil.
A uniform external medullary area in
dicates an even distribution of starch
cells and of starch grains within the
cell. When this layer is not uniform
It is an indication that the starch cells
are unevenly distributed and Inter
spersed with watery areas. A large
TRANSVERSE SECTION OF POTATO.
A, skin; B. cortical layer; C. outer me
dullary layer; D, inner medullary layer.J
and branching internal medullary area
indicates that there Is a large propor
tion of the potato substance which does
not contain enough starch grains to
rupture the cell walls when the tuber
is boiled, and hence a soggy rather
than a starchy cooked product results.
When the Internal medullary area is
small it is an Indication of uniformity
in the starch area and a small propor
tion of watery substance.
Horse Talk.
Overhead hayracks compel the horses
to inhale dust This Is bad for the
lungs.
Hay should be well forked and shak
en and slightly dampened and fed on
the floor or in slatted mangers.
The farmer should not buy his work
horses. lie should raise them. He can
grow them at a profit
It Is better for the average farmer
to raise draft colts. Farm Journal.
Continuous Cropping.
It has been observed by S. Fraser
of New York that mangels and sugar
beets grown continuously on the same
land for four years were much more
susceptible to leaf spot than when
grown in a rotation with other crops.
Pigs In Pasture.
The damage done by hogs to alfalfa
pastures is estimated by a Nebiaska
man at one-half the crop or less.
HOG HOUSE.
Portable and In Use In Various Ways
the Year Round.
We send herewith a sketch of what
we think the best handiest and cheap
eat hog house we tiSve ever used. Two
doors in front make it convenient for
ventilating", as we have them face
south in the winter time. If there is a
cold wind from the southwest the west
doors are closed and the east ones open
ed. Should the wind be in the east or
southeast they are reversed. The house
is divided inside by a portable partition
which should be .nearly four feet high
and made of good oak boards with very
narrow cracks between them, especial
ly near the bottom. With this partition
in place it makes good, roomy beds 5 by
8 feet each for the sows, and when
through with it for sows the partition
is removed and placed by the back
wall and held there by a large wooden
button turning down over the top
board. In this shape we use it for
twenty to twenty-five pigs and find it
better than any of a half dozen differ
ent patterns that we have used and are
using, as it affords better ventilation
and is easier to clean, as there is plenty
of room.
We use these houses in spring and
fall for the sows. In summer they are
used for bens with little chickens, be
ing pulled into the chicken lot or or
chard, and they would make excellent
colony houses for laying hens. In win
ter they furnish beds for fall pigs, thus
making themselves useful the year
around.
One good horse or ordinary team will
move one of them anywhere on the
level ground, and as they are only eight
felt wide they will pass through any
ordinary gate. The bracket arrange
ment seen at the ends of the house is
for attaching portable fence which we
use.
Size of house is 8 by 10 feet, four
feet high at back and seven feet in
front The runners or foundation are
4 by 4 oak, beveled off at each end
with an ax bo as to run easily. The
PORTABLE BOO HOUSE.
two center runners are fourteen feet
long, so that they may extend out two
feet at each end of. the house. Across
these outer ends we spike 2 by 4 or
2 by 6 pieces to hitch to. The, floor
should be of good oak boards, but need
not be very tight The sides are match
ed lumber, and the roof should be as
light as possible. We have used felt
paper for roofing for five years, but
the kind we used became leaky in
about two years, and now we have
four or five houses to reroof. We ex
pect to try galvanized iron or tin. The
uprights or studding are 2 by 2 placed
two feet apart, except that there are
2 by 4's placed at each side of doors.
Doors are fastened shut by means of
strong wooden buttons, each held by a
spike. Olin H. Dobbins in National
Stockman.
Lime Correets Acidity. -
Most cultivated soils possess a slight
ly acid reaction. This is generally due
to decomposition of the remains of
plants in the soil forming organic
acids. On wet soils this condition Is
more noticeable than on dry soils.
The sour humus and organic acids
are not only unfavorable to the growth
of nutrifying ferments and the root
tubercles of leguminous plants, but
also are likely, to dissolve iron and
other compounds which are poisonous
to microbes and crops. Water culture
experiments have shown that slightly
acid solutions are favorable to the
growth of plants, and, while-most soils
possess this character to a slight de
gree, yet any excess of soluble acid
in the soil would be highly detrimental.
While most of our cultivated crops
seem to need a slight acidity, it is
probable that they have the ability to
create this condition to a sufficient de
gree through the medium of the solu
tion sent out by their roots. This be
ing the case, it would seem that the
aim should be to keep soils in a neu
tral or slightly alkaline condition so as
to favor the growth of root tubercles
of the legumes and the desirable soil
ferments.
Liming is excellent for correcting
any excess of acidity and is probably
the most effective and economical sub
stance for- bringing about these other
desirable conditions. H. J. Patterson.
Farm Scales.
"I consider that on a farm of 160
acres a good scales would be worth $50
to $75 a year, possibly much mora. I
use scales mostly for weighing stock,
hay and grains. There are times when I
use scales every day," says a writer
In Farm and Home. "In feeding stock
'ou may take a small bunch of cattle
or hogs and by weighing each day both
stock and feed you can tell just what
the gain is per pound of feed. You
may change the feed and see which
gives the greatest gain if you keep a
record of your feeding while making
the test The scales are the only sure
way to determine profit or loss in feed
ing stock."
Progress of the Sugar Beet.
The beet sugar Industry has grown
very rapidly during the past fifteen
years. In 1892 the beet sugar fac
tories turned out 13.4G0 short tons of
refined sugar; in 1897. five years later.
4Z,2iG tons; in 1902, at the end of an
other five year period, 218,405 tons, and
In 1907 the estimated product reached
500,000 tons.

DANGER OF CATARRH.
Unless Properly Treated with Hy
omei, Becomes Serious.
Catarrhal troubles are far mors dan
gerous than they seem at first thought.
If you have catarrh there is an irritated
state of the mucous membrane and weak
ened tissues which afford an ideal lodg
ment and culture medium for disease
erms, especially those of consumption.
You should get cured as quickly as
possible before any dangerous germs that
yen may breathe lodge on the diseased
tissue and work destruction in the throat
and lungs.
The easiest, simplest, quickest, surest
and cheapest way to cure catarrh is by
the direct method, breathing Hyomei.
This wonderful medicated air treatment
does not drug and derange the stomach,
but is breathed in, directly following and
destroying all disease germs that may
have been inhaled. -
The unusual way in which Hyomei is
sold by Graham & Wells is the best evi
dence of their confidence1 in the treat
mentand should dispel all doubt as to
its curative properties! They agree to
refund "the purchase price to anyone
whom ETyomei fails to benefit, and you
do not risk acentin testing its healing
virtues. A complete outfit costs but $ 1 00
it it helps you, not a cent if it does not
do all that is claimed for it .
