PLANTING THE GARDEN EARLl
Vhere 8eason Is Late and Rainy Not
. Advisable to Get Seeds Into
Ground Too 8oon. '
It is not always advantageous to
plant the garden as early as
Under certain conditions nature has
ty ,rmrth of late planted seefia
10 that the difference In time of their
ripening will not accord with the dif
ference In plantings.'1. This, is partic
ularly the case when the season Is
late and rainy.
Plant for a succession of- the flir-
tarent vegetables. A garden, in which
most of the planting Is done at about
the same time will not give as good
results as where a period or ume
elapses between the second, third or
fourth plantings of the same vege
tables. Particularly is this true 01
peas, says the Farm and Home. Where
number of different varieties were
tried the best results were obtained
from one or two varieties planted in
succession, : ' - -
In sweet corn, however, this was
not so apparent It was found nest
to rely on several varieties as well, as
successive plantings. If the season
was backward or the plantings made
unusually early, sweet corn seemed to
be very slow in growth. On the other
hand, the corn planted later -would
grow very fast 'under favorable con
ditions and almost catch up with the
first plantings. To overcome this dif
ficulty It was found advisable to rely
on the plantings of different varieties.

PAYS TO RAISE GOOD HORSES
a
Grade 8talllons Cheaper to Use, But
. Pure Bred Colts Sold for Twice
as Much Money.
Fifty-five dollars is good interest for
the use of $7 for a year: And when
the feed of a colt for another year is
saved the proposition is all the more
attractive.
A stock farmer living In the south
east part of the state has been rearing
a number of colts every year, using
the services of a grade stallion.
This horseman wasn't very enthusi
asts about paying a larger fee for the
service of a pure-bred stallion. He
had been using grade and inferior
sires with a fair degree of success.
He saw no reason for changing.
In the season of 1910 he decided to
try a good pure-bred stallion Just once,
to see if it was worth the difference in
the service fees. .
The second week In this month this
stockman held a sale. The three-
year-old colts, sired by a grade stal
lion, sold at an average of $76.. The
two-year-old colts, the progeny of an
other grade sire, brought an average
of $46. The weaning colts, sired by a
pure-bred stallion, sold at an average
of $101.
The service fee of the pure-bred
italllon was $15, that of the grade $8,
a difference of $7. The feed eaten by
the older colts was saved, and $55
more was received for the weanlings
than the two-year-olds, and $25 more
than the three-year-olds.

Raising the Colts Properly.
Most of the colts on the farm get a
good start the first six months of
their lives from the fact that they are
allowed to suckle the dams during
that time. Early fall provides them
with good pasture and possibly they
have been receiving some oats or
shared part of the feed of the mare.
Such treatment puts them in good
shape for the winter, but liberal feed
ing must be kept up If a strong, well-
developed and matured horse is ex
pected. The colt's system required a
considerable amount of bone and mus
cle building material, and this can be
had by feeding nitrogenous feeds,
such as oats, a little clover hay.
The feeding of corn, so often prac
ticed, is not desirable for the growing
colt, but bad better be confined to
the matured horses. Access to the
straw pile will not hurt a growing colt,
but it should not be compelled to rely
on the straw pile for a livelihood.
ON for Incubator Lamps.
Incubator manufacturers always rec
ommend purchasing the best kind of
oil o use in the Incubator lamps, and
this is good advice. But sometimes
the oil will smoke. A remedy for
this 1b to take a cupful of fine salt
and put into each quart of oil. Let It
settle for a few days, then pour into
the lamp and put in a small piece of
gum camphor, letting it remain there.
Of course the wick must be properly
trimmed, rounded at each side, other
wise the lamp will smoke, no matter
what kind of oil you have.
There was a-time when the vogue
of "Pinafore" was simply amazing.
It was not copyrighted and after its
success in London it was pirated in
the United States. This piracy was
the Initial cause of Gilbert's hatred
of America and Americans.
However, if America did not send
him its dollars, It was quite ready to
spread his fame, says the Bookman.
Church choirs added "Pinafore" to
their repertoires, and it is recorded
that 100,000 barrel organs were con
structed to play nothing else. Here
is an ironical note from a newspaper
of the time;
"At present there are 42 companies
playing 'Pinafore.' Companies formed
after 6 p. m. yesterday are not in
cluded.
Its catch phrase, "What, never?
Well, hardly ever!" was deadly. It 1b
told, for Instance, that one editor
barred his staff from using It ;
"It occurred 20 times In as many
articles yesterday. Never let me see
It used again." "What, never r was
the unanimous question. "Well, hard
ly ever," replied the wretched man.
The readiness of W. S. Gilbert's
wit Is well illustrated by this story
told of him. He and F. C. Burnand,
the editor of Punch, were guests at
the same dinner table where a wise
host placed the rival humorists at op
posite ends of the room in the hope
of distributing equally the witty table
talk.
Continual shouts of laughter rose
from Gilbert's corner until Burnard,
after Ineffectual attempts to arouse
a similar jocularity In his immediate
circle and unable to conceal his cha
grin, leaned forward and said in his
most sarcastic manner:
"I suppose Mr. Gilbert ts telling
some of those funny stories which he
occasionally sends to Punch but
which Bon't appear."
To which Gilbert dryly replied:
don't know who sends the funny sto
ries to Punch, but It's very true they
don't appear."

In a Wisconsin experiment, 21 pigs
fed on rape for eight weeks gained 67
pounds more weight than the same
number fed on clover for the same
time.
It is a mistake to assume, however,
that rape alone makes an Ideal food
for gain. They muBt have some grain,
Fed on rape or clover alone pigs will
do better on clover.
Rape Bhould be fed by means of
moving fences, In order that the pigs
may not trample the Acid too much.
Clover has to be pastured or It will
quickly become dry and woody, and,
therefore, without proper nutrition.
With ordinary rainfall rape provides

A disease which is becoming prev
alent In the poultry industrj of the
Northwest is called avian tuberculosis
or tuberculosis of poultry. It Is a dis
ease which, like most of the other dis
eases to which all higher animals are
susceptible, is due to a living cause, a
certain germ, which cannot affect a
healthy fowl unless it be carried to
that fowl by some method or other.
It never generates spontaneously. It
Is a disease which is fairly recent in
the United States, having been noted
in this country only In 1900, but it has
been prevalent in Europe for very
many years.
The disease is exceedingly difficult
to detect, for it is very slow in action
and its spread has probably taken
place Insidiously, so that it has be
come thoroughly established by the
time the farmer is aware of its pres
ence. At first merely one or two birds
grow weak and slowly die, but later
the fatality increases so that a very
large percentage of whole flocks may
be lost.
. It is a disease which tends to attack
tame or domestic birds, such as chick
ens, rather than birds in the wild state,
since domestic fowls are living under
less natural conditions, where in very
manv instances their freedom is 11m
Ited, and they do not have a suffi
cient quantity of fresh air in many
cases for the best condition of health.
It is a disease which tends to attack
the adult fowl rather than chicks
The disease is very similar to that
found in cattle, also to the disease
known as tuberculosis or consumption
found in human beings. The method
of action of its germ is much the same
and there is great reason to believe
among scientific workers that it is not
impossible that the disease may pass
from man to fowl or from cattle to
man. It therefore has a very great
importance in respect to human life.
In the symptoms or the disease,
which appear only after the disease is
well established, the birds very orten
show emaciation and become droopy,
the feathers very often are ruffled, the
droppings become greenish in color
and the bird may go lame, aue to
weakness of the legs from tubercu
losis. Sometimes the comb r wattles
become pallid; the eyes may be bright
and also sunken; the appetite is likely
to become ravenous. There Is no spe
clal symptom which may be cited, but
rather the diagnosis must tie maae
from a combination of all of them.
In human tnuberculosis, the lungs
are the most often attacked by the
disease and the other organs are there
fore very secondary in the total cases
of infection. In fowls, however, a af
ferent condition is found. The liver, in
almost all Instances, shows a tubercu
losis annearance and the spleen, which
is a small body about one-half Inch in
diameter, just back of the liver, shows
Infection in almost as many cases, in
less than one-fifth of the cases do the
limes annear to be affected in fowls
On cutting open a tuberculosis bird
it will be found that there are very
small vellowlsh snots, many times
slightly swollen, although not of ne
cessity the case, and which differ in
diameter from one-sixteenth to one
fourth Inch. In consistency they are
cheesy, or they may appear to be
little imbedded areas of heavy fat, al
though pressure of the knife will show
the difference. Sometimes in older
cases they are gritty when cut with
the ' knife. These are the tubercles
which have been produced by the bac
teria. They are the point where the
germs are growing and therefore are
the very centers from which the dis
ease germs work.
The disease is spread from Dira to
bird Uhrough the droppings as the
germ finds its way to the' exterior by
this method. If, then, the chickens
be fed in a dirty, filthy place and there
are already some tuberculosis birds
In the flock, it may easily be seen how
the disease may pass from one to the
other; also it may be passed by pick
ing the bills of each other. Flies are
also without doubt a factor in the
spread of the disease. The disease is
not transmitted from the egg in more
than a small percentage of cases.
There Is no cure for the disease.
The bird does not react readily to tu
berculin and therefore this method
cannot be used for detecting the dis
ease, although such a method is of
very great value for cattle. For small
flocks the best method Is to kill the
entire stock, give a very thorough dis
infection, allow the land to lie for a
year, and-then start, again. It must
be remembered, and the point must
be emphasized, that birds which are
infected with this disease and which
die from it, or are killed when It is
suspected to get rid of them, must be
burned. They must not be burled
where angle worms may carry the par
tially decomposed material to the sur
face to infect other birds, nor must
they be thrown into fence corners,
where birds as yet uninfected may
pick them and thus become infected.
Disinfection or the premises in case
the stock is too large to be done away
with, is the only possible procedure,
and often that is not at all certain.
All suspicious birds must first be weed
ed out. The houses must be cleaned,
all dirt and litter taken out, and then
scrubbed. Eating troughs and drink
ing basins must receive . the same
treatment Formaldehyde is good only
in a tight house. Lime spray may be
used; 100 pounds of fresh lime may be
slaked with 60 pounds of water, and
mixed thoroughly. For use one quart
of the above slaked lime should be
added to four quarts ot water. This
should be ' stirred thoroughly and
sieved. It should be used immediately
as a spray and every crack must be
covered. The runs must be plowed up
and turned under in order that the
germs may be placed below the ground
where they may be expected In time
to die out.
In case the Oregon farmer fears
the disease in the flock and does not
trust his own diagnosis after cutting
up the bird, be can take out the in
ternal organs, place them in denatured
alcohol, and forward to the department
of bacteriology, Agricultural College,
where the diagnosis will be made free.

Wet or Dry Feeding.
; Many poultrymen now grind part ot
their chicken feed Into a meal so that
it can be fed either wet or dry In
the form of mush. It has been found
that in forcing chickens .for quick
growth or egg producing, feeding a
portion of ground feed is a great help.
Part of the work of digestion has
been accomplished by the artificial
grinding and the ben so fed can use
the energy thus saved for something
else. That is the real advantage of
feeding ground grain.
The general consensus of opinion
at the present time is that the dry
mash is more desirable than wet
Many practical poultrymen, however,
till prefer the wet mash.

WAYS OF SERVING CHEESE
tome Suggestions for the Housekeep
er Who Wishes to Avoid
Monotony.
The housekeeper who does not be
leve In monotony does not serve
iheese In the same way two days .in
mccesslon. A little planning will en
tble her to run three or four different
tlnds of cheese at the same time,
keeping them all fresh by putting them
Id an airtight cold place.
As most cheeses spoil quickly It is
aell to buy in smaller portions, espe
cially In warm weather. Some cheeses
are so perishable that grocers will not
dandle them In summer, and they
ihould not be bought unless to be
saten at once.
The same kind of cheese may be
served in various forms. Take the
popular cream cheese, probably more
used than any other one make. If you
pass It out In squares one day, the
next mix It In balls sprinkled with
parsley; again mix with chopped
plmolas; or thin slightly with whipped
cream, mix with chopped red peppers,
and remold Into a flat thin cake, which
Is passed wnole.
Instead of serving bar-le-duo and
cream cheese separately, stir together
into a mixture about the consistency
of creamed butter and sugar.
Fried cheese balls . are delicious
served with plain lettuce and French
dressing. Mix into the cheese chopped
parsley, a dash of cayenne, a pinch ot
salt, and two drops of onion Juice.
Mold into balls, dip in egg and bread
crumbs, and fry In boiling lard before
serving.
Another fried cheese with lettuce is
made of the English or ordinary Amer
ican cheese cut In strips like French
tried potatoes. Dip these In seasoned
egg and bread crumbs and fry in deep
fat when ready for use. .. . ;
