The Family Melon Patch.
Many who pride themselves on a
good garden and are fond of melons
never attempt to grow them. "Cncnpor
to buy at 25 cents each?" Mayo for
the first two or three, but If you would
like or dozen or two, enough that If
company comes unexpectedly and there
is no dessert' for dinner, the melons
can richly replace the pastry that Is
a different matter. .
Despite theories to the contrary,' mel
ons are as easily grown as cucumbers
and there are a number of varieties
which will mature unless the summer
Is unusually short A rich, light soil,
sloping toward the east , or south and
well fertilized In the hill, will bring
the luscious fruit.
If there Is danger from dry weather
fill an old pall or oyster can (first per
forating the bottom with nail holes)
with stable manure or poultry drip
pings, sink it partly in the ground and
keep It moistened. This will not only
furnish moisture but food. The reser
voir being below the surface will tempt
the roots to grow down instead of seek
ing the surface, as when water comes
from ;re hose in only small quantities,
and ttey will be less susceptible to
drouth.
If the plants go to vines nip off the
ends, but do not try to heck vigorous
growth by starvation. The Rocky Ford
is one of the best early muskmelons
and one of the easiest to grow, bearing
In profusion.

Cnta Oat the Undesirable Seed.
The real up-to-date farmer, following
the most scientific methods In the op
eration of his ground, Is taught to
make use of the se
lected material only
In order that the
species may be con
stantly Improved,
following the law
of the survival of
the fittest For In
stance, in' the selec-
i-OR seed cobn. tion of the seed to
be placed lu the ground, he Is not con
tent merely to secure the best species,
but wherever possible he will go care
fully over the i3eed and pick out only
the largest specimens to be placed in
the ground. In this manner the pro
duct Is generally of a much higher
standard. It Is difficult to carry out
this selective scheme in the case of
corn and similar seeds which are made
use of In great quantities. In the case
of corn, however, the small kernels are
generally at the tip of the ears, and In
order to get rid of these undesirable
pieces a corn-tipper has been invented.
The devlep aeems to have been sug
gested by the familiar pencll-shappener.
It Is operated by a small crank, and
has a cone with a tooth Interior. The
tip of the corn ear being placed In this
revolving cup, all the small seed are
cut off, leaving only the full-sized ker
nels on the ear.
Leg Weakne.
Leg weakness is due to chicks be
coming heavy rapidly, so that the
weight of their body' is too much for
their legs. This Is not always an alarm
ing condition, for It denotes that the
chicks are growing fast, and If careful
ly guarded and fed properly they will
pull through all right The cause
arises from heavy feeding and forcing,
which carries the chicks forward so
rapidly as to cause the legs to fail.
Change the food to a light diet of veg
etables and feed bone meal in the food.
They should also be well protected
against the dampness, and the difficul
ty will soon pass awray. Leg weakness
is nearly always due to rapid growth of
the body or from lack of "uniformity of
heat in brooders, If the chicks are small
enough to be kept In a brooder. Crowd
ing and pressing together to keep warm
at night is a main cause of little chicks
having leg weakness. No great alarm
need be entertained unless the trouble
continues for too long a time, but
change the food and keep the birds
4ry.
Utilizing Waate Timber.
The wood chemistry section of the
Forestry Bureau has been giving some
attention to the subject of production
of turpentine from yellow pine waste.
It Is stated that for the recovery of
turpentine from waste wood the steam
distillation . process Is far superior to
destructive distillation, making a more
uniform crude turpentine, and usually a
higher grade refined product The
wastage from the yellow pine cut each
year would yield as much turpentine as
the entire oresent annual output In
this country, with a value of $14,000,-
000. At the present rate of cutting the
supply of long-leaf yellow pine In the
South will be practically exhausted In
twenty years, but that the methods of
exploitation now In use convert only
about half the tree Into market pro
duct
DM
I Feeding Com oi Gnu.
Professors Stewart" and At wood, of
the West Virginia Experiment Station,
last year conducted some careful tests
to determine whether it. is profitable to
feed milk cows grain on grass. With
out going into the details of these ex
periments we quote the conclusions as
follows:
"This experiment clearly shows that
there was no direct financial gain In
feeding the grain to the cows while at
pasture. It is true that the cows
which received grain were uniformly
in somewhat better flesh than those
that did not receive grain, but as far
as the milk yield was concerned the
Increased flow was produced at an ac
tual loss." Data obtained In similar
experiments at other stations are sum
marized, and from these in -comparison
with their own investigations the au
thors conclude "that unless dairy prod
ucts are especially high in price It is
not a profitable practice to feed grain
to cows at pasture. It Is true that more
milk. Is obtained and the cows hold up
their yield better and remain In better
flesh when receiving the grain rations,
but under ordinary circumstances ther
Is no direct profit from the grain feed
ing, as the increased production usual
ly costs more than it can be sold for."
Hog that Make Bleat.
The hog raisers of Kansas station
made a test to show what kind of a
hog grows the best me?t. The weights
of bams In the test were as follows :
Berkshire bams, : 23 pounds ; Du-roc-Jersey,
24 pounds; Poland
Chinas, 25 pounds. These hogs in
size were as near the same weight as
possible to get them. The shoulders
of the Berkshires weighed 21
pounds; Duroc-Jerseys, 19 pounds
and Poland-Chinas, 19 pounds. The
Berkshires have larger shoulders than
the other breeds.
The butcher who saw the hog
slaughtered thought the Duroc-Jersey
had the most fat on the back ; the Poland-China
next, then the Berkshire.
The Berkshire ham showed more lean
and less fat than the Poland-China.
The butchers considered the breed of
hogs that had the most fat the most
profitable hog, both for the farmer and
the butcher.
Orchard Work.
A good test of a man's Christianity
is to examine his apple barrel frorr
top to bottom.
A man may be a good woodchopper,
but that Is no sign that he knows how
to prune trees.
An ax and a saw In the bands of au
Ignorant man cause more damage to
the fruit crops of this land than all the
birds that are hatched.
Fruit sells best when properly grad
ed. The best will bring a better price
and the lower grades will generally
bring as good, a price as the entire lot
would If mixed.
For summer pruning of trees the besx
time is from the 15th of June to the
10th of July, Just When the sap Is run
ning freely. When the tree is In leaf
you can tell better what to cut out .
Some people imagine that all that U
necessary to have a good orchard ts to
plant a variety of good trees and "let
'em rip." It generally takes years to
discover their mistake, bui. they finally
discover it

This milk cooler is arranged so that
the milk flows In a thin sheet over the

M. E. Pennington of the Bureau of
Chemistry, Department of Agriculture,
reports that experiments on milk kept
at about the freezing point showed a
continuous Increase of organisms for
five or six weeks. At their maximum
they numbered hundreds of millions
per cubic centimeter, and occasionally
they passed the billion mark. Although
the milk experimented with was never
solidly frozen, yet after ten days to
two weeks It was a mass of small Ice
crystals. No odor or taste Indicated
the higher bacterial content, and evec
on heating no curd was produced until
the very end of the experiment

"Vegetable milk" is used In Japan.
It Is made from the soja bean. The
liquid is exactly like cow's milk in ap

distinguished from it To make It the
beans are first soaked and then boiled
in water. Some sugar and phosphate
of potassium are added, and it is boiled
down till it has the consistency of con

alfalfa in a farm which he bought and

I once had a cat that did a rather
remarkable ratting feat. He stalked
two young rats on the eaves of a low
flat stable roof, and caught one in the
usual way. The other Jumped on to an
elderberry tree just below. Bob, how
ever, not satisfied with the one, grasped
it firmly in his mouth, and then Jumped
headlong for the other. Either he was
very lucky or extraordinary agile, for
he fell to the ground with one- rat still
In his mouth and the other in his paws,
and promptly killed them both. The

the evening the watch was returned to
its owner. "And what did he say?"
asked the guest "Sh-hl He does not
