Drying Rubber Boots.
In wet weather my children trs
quently wade into water over their
rubber boots, and having to spend
considerable time in drying these wet
boots, I looked around one day for
something with which to do the work
quickly and itfectlvely, wltes a reader
of Los Angeles Express. I came
across a box containing about a quart
of sawdust, which I put Into a pan
and set In oven until quite warm, then
poured It Into the wet boots and let
stand an hour or so. After shaking
out sawdust I found the moisture was
all absorbed.
Hints on Making of Cakes,
Always have the pan ready tor the
cake. A toothpick is best tor trying
a cake to see it It is done. Keep a

against forgetting the cake.

Notes and instructions from Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Station
of Oregon and Washington. Specially Suitable to Pacific Coast Conditions
Reclaiming the Low,
"White Land" Flats.
The vast body of low, flat, non
productive land lying in Western Ore
gon, is exceptionally rich in plant
food, and by a system of under drain
age and suitable cropping, may be
made to yield large crops, is the sub
stance of the reply of Professor H.
D. Scudder, Oregon Agricultural col
lege agronomist, to a request for in
formation on the subject of a commit
tee on lowland drainage. The profes
sor has repeatedly urged that this
land, now producing little or nothing
perhaps $1.50 per acre annually as
sheep pasture could most profitably
be reclaimed by under-drainage and
proper cropping. His laboratory in-
investigations have shown the white
land soil to contain good percentages
of silt and clay, and yet to be not at
all difficult to handle or work if put
into proper condition.
A comparison of the white lands
with the red hill lands surrounding
them is drawn by. Professor Scudder.
By laboratory analysis he has shown
unmistakably that the red hill lands
are heavier in clay than the white
lands, and yet they can be worked
nearly all seasons of the year without
injury. Their richness is due to their
silt and clay content which comes
from the basaltic rock and is rich in
'potash and phosphoric acid, and has
great endurance under heavy cropping
and in retaining moisture.
The difference between the red land
and white land is the difference in
drainage. It is this difference which
causes the striking divergence in col
or, the iron compounds which give the
red color to the hill land having brok
en down under the swamp conditions
of the low lands, causing them to lose
color and fade into the condition
which gives them their name, "white
lands." The whiteness is the result
and sign of excessive wetness. Water
stands on them until late in the spring,
the water table in summer is but a
short distance below the surface, and
the soil lacks aeration. This makes
the seeding late and causes shallow
rooting, followed by early drying out,
giving a low production for these
soils.
"Such soils suffer from lack of bac
terial and chemical activity, which
can only proceed in porous, well-aired
soil, and but little of the plant food
becomes available during the growing
season. Further, the soil acids ac
cumulate, bo that clovers, the most
valuable plants, cannot thrive, while
sorrels, inferior grasses and water
loving plants, such as sedges, multiply
and occupy the ground with their
worthless and harmful growth. This,
in turn, causes a low content in or
ganic matter at present.
"With all these unfavorable condi
tions it is no wonder that this soil, so
rich in plant food, is practically life
less and worthless. The removal of
the excessive water that causes this is
the only remedy required to bring this
soil into a condition of great produc
tivity. "Although contrary to the- general
opinion, those who have had exper
ience in these things know that the
white lands may be reclaimed by un
der drainage with tile the only prac
tical and economical method of remov
ing excessive water. Where a good
outlet is available the cost of under
drainage should not exceed $30 per
acre. It would doubtless be less in
many cases. Since the present mar
ket value of the lands is comparative
ly low, an outlay of $30 per acre to
bring them into productivity would be
a profitable investment.
"Where no outlet is near the lands
to be drained, the individual farmer
cannot succeed. I believe the only
method of reclaiming the entire area
in any district is to open up a district
or county drainage ditch, which would
provide a good outlet for the individ
ual tile systems of the different
owners. Recent legislation has provid
ed legal steps for bringing about the
necessary organization for carrying on
this work.
"After such an outlet ditch has been
constructed, the individual farmers
who are to tile drain into , it should
continue to work together. Ditching
machines, too costly for the individual,
may be purchased and used co-operatively
for ditching, greatly reducing
the cost of tiling. In the same way,
the land may be farmed co-operatively
until brought into a condition of good
tilth by proper cultivation and rota
tion of crops. Traction engines and
plows could be purchased by the dis
trict and operated on the whole tract
until it is reclaimed. During this
time the humus-producing crops could
be grown at a profit
"There are many thousands of acres
of this unreclaimed land in the North
west, capable of supporting intensive

Eradicating Brome Grass
, From Alfalfa Fields.
iTo eradicate brome grass from al
falfa fields it is necessary to tear up
the sod by earry cultivation, and then
cut the crop before the grass goes to
seed, is the substance of the advice
given in response to inquiries, by Pro
fessor H. D. Scudder, agronomist, of
the Oregon Agricultural college. The
professor explains the reasons for this
statement as follows: ---
"Brome grasses are very active
spreaders through their rooting sys
terns as well as through their seed.
So! to get rid of it, two things are im
perative.
" First, the field should be thorough
ly cultivated as early in the. spring be
fore the alfalfa buds, with a machine
similar to the John Deere alfalfa cul
tivator, until not a bit of sod remains
untorn. This will not injure the alfal.
fa at all, provided it is a year or two
old, but will improve it, although the
field will look as though freshly
plowed. This treatment will tear out
nearly all the grass, and should be
followed by a peg-tooth harrow to
level the ground and shake the soil
from the grass sod, so that the roots
will die. Should any grass appear af
ter the first cutting the field should
be cultivated as at first. This will de
lay the second cutting, ; but will not
lose you the crop.
Second, none of the grass which
does come through should be allowed
to go to seed. Cut the crop before
the seed ripens. This can be done
and still give you a fair quality of
hay, or this early cutting can be put
into the silo or fed green to cows or
pastured off with pigs and sheep."
The Oyster Shell Scale.
The Division of Entomology of the
State Agricultural Experiment station
at Pullman, Washington, gives the
following timely information concern
ing this destructive pest:
The oyster shell bark louse is quite
a common pest throughout Western
Washington and also occurs in many
of the orchards in Eastern Washing
ton, especially in those of higher alti
tude. The oyster , shell seems to pre
fer an elevation above 2000 feet or
else where considerable moisture is
present, while the San Jose scale
seeks the localities below 2000 .feet
and where there is little moisture in
the air. The oyster shell differs
from the San Jose scale in its method
of reproduction. There is but one
generation of the oyster shell each
year. In the fall, under each of the
scales, you will find produced about
one hundred eggs or less. These re
main over winter and about the early
part of June will hatch out. The
young scales then crawl over the tree
and locate on some suitable place of
the bark, where they remain the rest
of their lives. With the San Jose scale
as many as four hundred young are
born to each mother and there are at
least ten generations in the year. It
is this difference in reproductive abil
ity that makes the San Jose scale such
a dreaded pest.
The usual treatment for the oyster
shell bark louse is to spray with the
sulphur-lime wash any time during the
winter. This ( wash acts through the
shell and will kill some of the eggs
beneath. Sometimes, however, espe
cially if the wash is scantily applied, it
has proved quite insufficient in check
ing the pest. It would seem as if the
old fashioned sulphur-lime, contain
ing a great excess of lime, would
work better than the clear sprays now
in use. The excess of lime has the
effect of raising the scale on drying
and that exposes the eggs to the ac
tion of the wash and also to the action
of the weather. If the eggs "are not
killed and the young appear in early
summer, a tobacco wash has given the
best satisfaction. Blackleaf, used 1
to 7, or BIackleaf-40, used 1 to 70, is
a dependable spray. Any tobacco
spray has its effect greatly increased
by the addition of soap, and of the
soaps those known as cresol or lysol
seem best
If there are no other pests than the
oyster shell, red spider and aphis pres
ent, the tobacco treatment in early
summer will be preferable to the win
ter spray of sulphur-lime.

MUSIC READING MADE EASY
Children Find It an Attractive Task
to Learn Their' Notes by Use of
Electrical Device.
By using the electric music teacher,
children will find that it is an attrac
tive task to learn their notes, instead
of a dry lesson as hereofore, so that
they will begin to take an interest In
music at once, and not consider it a
drudgery, says the Popular Elec
tricity " '
M. Pierre Cells, a Paris Inventor,
makes the device which we Illustrate
here. It is based on the principle of
using an electric contact plate under
the music paper. By pricking each
note with a sharp metal point we
make contact for an electric device
carrying a hammer, so that the ham
mer strikes a string or preferably a
metal piece to give out the sound.
Thus each note or line or space gives
out Its corresponding sound, and It Is
an easy matter to read a simple piece
of muslo in this way. .
The device is quite an elaborate
one for It is required to take care of
the sharps and flats which figure per-

manently as the sign of the staff. But
this is easily done by using a revolv
ing contact device to shift over the
several required notes at the start. To
bring back to natural during the piece,
we press on a button which restores
the note for the moment
Even professional musicians will
find It 'useful for transposing a piece
into another key and this is done by
observing the movement of the ham
mers and also a transposing chart
which lies before them.
SWAP CHILDREN IN DENMARK
Curious 8ystem of Exchanging Little
Folk During 8ummer Months
. ; 8oheme Works Well.
In Denmark there Is a curious sys
tem of exchanging children during the
summer. The country people 'send
their little ones to the city people, and
the latter send theirs to the country.
The state delivers free tickets, and
the schools send the children accord
ing to the applications from families.
The children travel alone, each one
wearing a ticket of identification
pinned on the jacket or bodice. Should
any of them go astray they are lodged
at the first station whilst Inquiries are
made. The young travelers are met at
their .destination by the peasants and
their wives.
Treated with affectionate care by
these good hearted people, the children
often enjoy privileges they have never
known at home. There la no severe
discipline nor irksome restraint They
return home full of tales about their
adventures, and their mothers are de
lighted to ' find them looking rosy
cheeked, fat, and healthy. The peas
ant women feed them well and often
make them fresh clothing.
The latter send their children Into
the towns and volunteer guides show
them the monuments and sights. Last
year the principal restaurant keepers
at Copenhagen gave them a series of
feats and organized little dancing par
ties for their amusement Both cate
gories of children benefit by this mode
of exchange, which, it may be noted,
is conducted on Inexpensive lines.

. Systematic Slaughter of Rats.
A price is set on the head of the rat
in Tokyo, and, according to the Far
East, "The sight is frequently seen in
the side streets of the city of some
blooming damsel gingerly conveying a
small rat suspended by a string tied
to its tail,' to the police box. Here an
official receipt is given for the rat
which entitles the holder to 5 Ben, and
so the plague is combated and the peo
ple protected against foul epidemics."
