Bowaro of III Rosults of Ovcr-watoriny tho Gardon At this tlrno of tho year and later on through tho summer tho question of moisture In tho vegetable garden Is a vltnl factor In tho successful growth of tho vegetables. All food Is taken up by tho plimU in a liquid form, hence wntcr muBt bo present in a proper de gree to dissolve tho plant food and thus mako it nvnllnblo for tho use of tho vegetables. Quito u majority of our vegetables aro lurgoly composed of water and it is very necessary therefore that they havo good quality, thnt they grow rapidly and bo pro duced in a soil which has a good mois ture content, especially during tho dry days of June. July and August. At tho present tlrno, duo to tho rather wet spring, there is plenty of moisture in tho soil and it is not nec essary for any irardener, except ho be working on a light, sandy soil, to prac tice tiny form of irrigation, with tho possible exception of tho uso of water in transplanting plants to tho gardon. Hut for those vegetables that havo been planted somo weeks ago, cultiva tion is at present the most efficient means of giving vegetables tho mois ture which they need. Tho work of cultivation enables tho plants to get moisturo in the most approved way namely, by taking it from below at tho roots, without tho top strata of soil being crusted or made hard. Many gardeners get tho notion nt the present time, because of tho dry nppenranco of tho soil, that it is nec essary to get out tho noso and possibly the sprinkler and start to water tho garden. If they exnmine tho soil care fully, they will find plenty of moisture two or three inches below tho dry sur face This dry mulch at tho surfaco is of great iniX)rtnnco in holding tho moisture nt a depth to which cultiva tion has bean made. Important tools for tnklng enro of tho cultivation efficiently and rapidly nro tho hand hoe, tho rako and possibly a small wheel hoe, if nvailablc. The hand hoe, howover, can bo used to very good advantage in working up tho soil while the rake is especially good in pulverizing clods and making tho mulch fine nt the surface. While there may bo n tendency for many gardeners to toko advantage of tho early morning for cultivation, so fur as timo is concerned, yet during these morning hours tho plants aro of ten wet with dew, nnd henco it is not advisablo to do much cultivation nt Unit particular tlrno. In somo cases, if tho work is dono early in tho morn ing, tho plants will havo n tendency to bo diseased ; in other cases, tho leaves will become dirty nnd tho pores through which tho plants broatho will bo closed. If thero seom8 to .bo in any way ti necessity for nutting on water, tho irrigation should bo followed by n good cultivation as soon as tho ground is in suitable working condition. ' Under no circumstances should tho garden be irrigated once it day; in many instances not oven onco n week unless tho soil is sandy nnd quito por ous. Vegetables suiTor from damping o(T, stem rot nnd other fungous troubles whon tho ground Ib contin uully wot and compact. This com puctno8B must bo broken in order that tho Boll may bo properly aerated. For many othor reasons, therefore, in ad dition to tho ones suggested nbovo, it will bo seen that cultivation is ono of tho most important factors in tho maintenance of moisture during tho siimmor months.

Washington Star, SUNFLOWER SEED USE QIVEN COUNT AS POULTRY FEED BY PROFESSOR LIPPINC0TT. Its Qood for Moltlno Period, but Not Practicable at Other Times on Av. erage- Farm Too Much Fiber and Too Expensive. Sunflower seed becnuso of Its cost nnd high fiber content Is not so desir able n poultry feed as Is generally sup posed, nccordlng to W. A. Llpplncott, professor of poultry husbandry In the Kaunas Htuto Agricultural college. "In tho first place It Is too expen sive," says Professor Llpplncott, "and then, too, It contains u largo amount of cnnlo fiber. It Is n good feed, how ever, for tho molting period. The oil seems to aid In giving gloss to the feathers. Protein Is essential to feath er growth nnd tho sunflower Is rich In protein. Dlrds for Show Purposes. "Sunflower seed Is used by poultry men when they nro preparing birds for show purposes nMho feed apparently gives tho bird n better appearance. Showmen uso tho seed extensively as feed but It Is not practical for tho fanner unless tho seed enn bo bought much cheaper than tho ordinary mar ket price." Oats nro better feed for chickens than sunflower seed, In the opinion of .Mr. Llpplncott. Sunflower seeds have approximately 21 per cent fat content nnd .10 per ceut fiber content, while onts havo 1.2 per cent fnt content and only 10.8 per cent liber content. It Is not wise to uso oats as n feed for chickens too extensively becnuso tho digestive apparatus of the fowls Is not designed to handle such a largo amount of crudo fiber. Best Fiber Content Tho best liber content In a ration for fowls Is approximately 3.5 per cent Too much fiber upsets tho bird. If somo feeds, low In fiber, nro used In connecth . with onts, the fiber content Is broiiK.it down to about the required amount. Meat scraps nnd mlllc aro the only common poultry feeds having abso lutely no crude fiber. Broken rlco has but .2 per cent, gluten nicnl 2 per cent, corn 2.2 per cent, nnd knfir 2 per cent FAVOR ANGLE IRON HARROWS Teeth Carrying Bars Are Plvotally Connected at Their Front End In V-Shaped Implement Anglo Iron harrows nro giving such gencrnl satisfaction In tho farming business that the number of patents on this typo of soil pulverizer and weed killer Is growing larger every year This ono was recently patented by n Georgia man.

Early hatched chicks should bo given plenty of room In which to ex erclse. A cool or sllghly cold room Is better than n warm ono for this purpose. It hardens tho chick nnd thero Is little danger from chilling If properly handled. As soon as tho youngsters got cold they will run bnck under tho hovers nnd warm up, then run out again to work In tho fresh air. Brooding In n cold room produces stronger chicks, with better appetites. Indoor chicks should bo allowed nc- coss nt nil times to dried bono, small slue. They need this to maintain strength In tho legs; otherwise, when closely housed, leg weakness results. FrcBh, -green-cut bono fed In limited quantities onco per day will ward off this troublo. .

Put tho hojusc, If possible, on an emi nence, or rise, facing cast or south with a gentle slopo away from tho front. Don't build too near tho road, nor yet too far back 150 to 250 feet will generally bo about right Don't, don't ever put tho bnrn nnd lot buildings In front of tho house Tho only logical plnco for theso Is In tho rear nnd hidden, If practicable, by trees, vines nnd shrubbery. Before building, glvo study nnd tlrno to planning tho whole farm lay out, Progrcsslvo Fanner advises. Doing this may save many later re grets, Tako paper and pencil, and, with tho aid of tho family, sketch the grounds ns they should be when the building and planting scheme is com pleted. It may and probably will be years before all details of building nnd planting arc completed, but then thero will bo a harmonious, pleasing whole. Aim at an Ideal and come as near reaching It ns possible. As never before, convenience nnd simple dignity are the alms of house building. A compact, well-arranged plan Fitves steps for the housewife and likewise building materials. Put In plumbing nnd wiring as thp house Is built Every live, hustling fanner theso days should aim at noth ing less tlmn wntcrworks, n sewage disposal system and electric lights, or at least an acetylene lighting system. Make the farm homo fit Its surround ings; the country Is no place for osten tatious show. Multitudes of gables, bay windows nnd vivid-tinted paints Jar especially In country houses, be cnuso they give an nlr of artificiality among nature's harmonies of coloring. Have nn opeu grass lawn. How ever well designed nnd built a house may be, If It has no green lawn In front It Is Incomplete. Mako tho lawn open and free from shrubs or flowers except ut the borders. Frame the whole picture with flow ering shrubs nnd trees. Directly In front of and near tho house Is no place for trees however beautiful they may be; rather place them at tho side and towurd the back, bordering them with flowering shrubs like tho crape myrtle, nnd these, In turn, with banks of the easily grown flowering annuals like zinnias and salvia. Put vines, preferably a hardy ever green like tho English Ivy, over un sightly fences, stumps and walls. Make stately, cool avenues of the hot, dusty lanes by bordering them vlth pecan trees. Lessons Learned in Sleep. Lessons have been learned nnd dlfil cult problems solved while In sound slumber. A young girl, through the death of her father, was told that she must leave school unless she passed an ox imlnntlon which would entitled her to scholarship. She studied assiduous ly, and on one occasion carried her school books to her bedroom, Intending to rise early tho next day for tho pur pose of study. In the morning, on looking over her lessons, she was sur prised to find thnt she already knew them. This happened for several suc ceeding days, when she mentlbned the circumstances to her mother, who de termined to watch her. This she did and observed the girl get up as soon ns It was light, apply herself to her lessons, and then return to bed. When nwnko she had no Idea of what she had done. Not Qualified. "See here, you little rulllnn, Til teach you to throw stones nt my chickens," shouted tho angry matron to tho boy next door. "Well, If you wnnt to tench me the same method you uso when you throw them nt my cat I'll go clsewhero for Instruction," snickered tho llttlo ruf thin, whoso father was a college pro- 'essor. Not Womanlike. "Do you see a face In tho moon, dear?" snld tho sweet young thing. "Yes," he replied. "Does It seem llko a mnn or n worn in?" "Llko n man, tlenr.

How's This Cincinnati authority says corns dry up and lift out wlih fingers. Ouch I 7 I 7 I I This kind or rough talk will be heard less Lcro in town if pcoplo troubled with corns will follow tho simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a fow drops of a drug called frcezone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened callous stops soreness at once, and soon tho corn or callous dries up and lifts right off without pain. Ho says frcezono dries Immediately and nover Inflames or even Irritates tho surrounding skin. A small bottlo of freczone will cost very liUlo at any drug store, but will positively remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one's feet. Millions of American women will welcome this announce ment since the inauguration of tho high heels. If your druggist doesn't have freezona tell him to order a small bottle for you.
