Oregon Farmers Overcome Prejudice
of Long Standing.
From the Oregon Agricultural College, Corvalllk.
Kale is one of the best talking crops
in Oregon. When the Oregon booster
wants to prove that Oregon is the
best dairy state in the union he has
to talk kale. Unless he knows what
kale will do to the milk bucket he has
not qualified as a booster. It is called
the thousand headed kale, and the
botanist knows it as brassica eleracea,
but it is the plain kale of four letters
that does the talking. The strange
thing is that it has only been during
the last two or three years that it
has had an audience, though it is
nearly thirty years old in the Willam
ette valley. It has tried to talk all
those years, but the people wouldn't
listen when it sought recognition.
"We never heard it talk," they in
sisted, "back in Iowa and New York.
Back there cows produce milk with
out kale, and I guess they will have
to here." That is tradition. It took
thirty years for kale to get an audi
ence in this state and live down tradition.
The dairymen of New York under
stand what green succulent food
means to the dairy cow, and they
build expensive silos, buy expensive
machinery, and grow fertility-robbing
corn, which they irrigate with their
sweat, in order that the farmer dur
ing the long winter months may have
an excuse for milking his cows. The
Oregonian needs no expensive silos
to remind the cow of the good old
summer time. Kale! A thousand
blessings on the thousand-headed
kale! It is making Oregon tjie
greatest dairy state in the union.
When grown under favorable con
ditions kale will yield 40 tons per
acre of green feed, and its chief value
is as a soiling crop during the fall
and winter. Splendid results are be
ing secured by feeding kale and vetch
hay to dairy cows, without any grain
or mill feed. Dr. Withycombe, of the
Agricultural College, says that 15
pounds of vetch hay and 40 pounds
of kale a day is practica.'v a balanced
ration for a dairy cow. Mr. W. L.
Wilson, of Prinks, Or., says: "I re
ceived $207 from 14 cows in the month
of December, and fed them nothing
but kale, turnips antl vetch hay. The
man who feeds chop would have to
make $2.T7 to clear as much as I do.
I have not had a speck of mill feed in
the barn all winter."
Mr. P.yron Hunter, of Corvallis.
has, as assistant agriculturist of the
bureau of plant industry, U. S. depart

study of the forage crops of Western
Oregon, and in Bulletin No. 91, pub

about kale, which is timely:

as the season will permit. This fur
nishes plants for transplanting in
June and July. The land used for
transplanting is well manured and
plowed two or three times between
the first of March and the first of
Tune. With the land in perfect tilth
it is plowed again with a 12-inch plow
about the first of June, and the young
kile plants dropped into every third
furrow about two and a half to three
feet apart. This nlaces about one
plant on every square yard. The roots
of the plants are placed where the
next furrow covers them, leaving the
tops uncovered. The plants that are
plowed in during the day in this way
are rolled in the evening of the same
day to nark the ground. Two or
three cultivations are all that can
usually be given, for the plants will
soon touch in the row, if they do well.

prefer to p'ant the seed in hills, and
when the plants are large enough thin
them to one plant in a hill. Others
put ka'c out just as cabbnee is usually
transplanted, instead of plowing it in.
The time of transplanting must be
determined bv the size of the plants
and the condition of the land. If the
land is wet and subject to overflow
the transplanting mav be delayed un
til du-ing July. If the land 'is well
drained and the plants are large
enough it may be done before the
first of June. In transplanting,
enough plants may be left for a stand
on the land where the seedlings are
grown.
A man livinrr at Maud wants to know
if he can irrigate his trees by means
of a water wnp-on nnd barrels. Pro
fessor Thornber did not favor the plan,
stating:
"This would be rather too complex.
I am of the opinion that you will find
it too great an expense, considering1
tho vr.tue of a team and a man, to haul
this water during the summer. The
station would advise you to try and
conserve this moisture by means of
culture. This could be done with good
effect during the summer months. I
have had considerable experience on
the state colleg-e campus in hauling
water; and have concluded, first that
it is impracticable to place water
around the tree without a heavy mulch
of straw; second, that nothing much
loss than a barrel of water for each
tree at each watering, should be given,
j This will soak the ground up fairly
i well, and in our case, I did not need to
wat.T the trees on tne campus more
than twice during the summer. I do
not know that it will be possible for
you to make use of a heavy mulch, but
in order to hold the water, it is neces
sary to do so. You can use jotted
straw for this, or forest leaves."

Hanr Stubborn Canes Dae
Trouble In Xunul Fossae.
There are people who have a stub
torn cough which lasts for months and
t-ears and which the more rational
.reatinent is unable to cure. This was
the case with a woman, of whom M.
Orino.ey, of Paris, recently reported
ils observations to the Sooiete Modi
ile des Hopitaus, and who coughed for
leveii years without anyone being able
:o cause this Infirmity to disappear,
mtil one day, after an examination
)f her nose, the ablation of polypi cur
Mi it suddenly and definitely.
A rough with a nasal origin, there
ore exists which may be more frequent
than one Is led to believe. It is, M.
Lennozey says, generally termed a
nervous cough. This term is at the
same time an error in diagnosis and
eads to an insulliclent treatment.
The nasal cough occurs when two
:norbid conditions are realized simul
taneously; these are an exaggerated
sensibility of the mucous membrane of
'.lie nose and a local cause of irritation.
This local excitant may be either hay
'ever or n polypus in the nose.
Nasal coughs have certain character
sties which may serve to render them
recognizable. They are dry, convulsive,
progressive. Irresistible.
What often deceives as to the cause
)f those fits of coughing is a banal
mbjective illusion. The sufferer from
1 nasal cough feels that it is caused
v a pricking sensation in the larynx,
tnd, on the contrary, notices no tickling
n the nose.
A systematic examination of the j
asal fossae of all people who cough is. j
therefore, necessary. Sometimes a
large lesion is found In them, floating j
;olypi which Irritates the mucous mem- :
brane; sometimes the latter seems nor-
nal, but at certain points cough-producing
zones are found which are revealed j
:y two complimentary signs: produe-
Ion of the cough by the irritation of j
the said zones, suppression of the j
ough by the eocalnization of the zones, j
The diagnosis of the nasal origin of a i
ough considerably attenuates its prog- j
:iosis. This cough when not recognized j
continues almost Indefinitely; when I
recognized it gives way almost always j
to n rational local treatment, and some
:imes disappears with astonishing rap
dity. Thanks are duo to M. Lennozey for
calling attention to the role, scarcely
suspected until now, by which the
:nuoous membrane of the nose plays in
:he persistence of certain coughs; and
in case of need recourse will be had to i
he therapeutical means which this j
tiowledge Indicates. Paris Edition of '

NATURE'S
PERFECT T0NIG
There is scarcely any one, no matter how vigorous and healthy, who
does not need a tonic sometimes. Little physical irregularities upset the
system, the appetite fails, digestion is poor, the body feels tired and worn
out, and other unpleasant symptoms give warning that the system is disor
dered and needs assistance to ward off, perhaps, some serious sickness or
ailment. S. S. S. is recognized everywhere as the best of all tonics, nature's
medicine, made entirely of healing, cleansing, invigorating roots and herbs,
a systemic remedy without an equal. S. S. S. has the additional value of
being the greatest of all blood purifiers. It re-establishes the healthy circu
lation of the blood, rids the body of that tired, worn-out feeling, improves the
appetite and digestion, and brings about a return of health to those whose
systems have been weakened or depleted. S. S. S. acts more promptly and
pleasantly than any other medicine, and those who are run down in health
should commence its use at once. It will thoroughly purify the blood and
tone up the systt-m. S. S. S. is admirably suited for a systemic remedy
because it is free from minerals ; it may be used without harmful results by
persons of any age, and no unpleasant effects ever follow.
