There is now an article on the market that is so like the real maple sugar that even old Vermonters are unable to tell the difference. In fact, on ac count of its healthful qualities, being a purely vegetable product, neither sticky nor sickly, it is preferred by many people who formerly used only the regulation maple sugar. This new extract is called Maplelne. It is a Seattle product and can be used to advantage by the housewife in a variety of waya. For instance, a syrup like maple ean be made by simply dis solving granulated sugar in water and adding a few drops of Maplelne.

I Good Profit May Be Mads by Feeding to Poultry at High Prices. ' Br Jams DrHn. Poultryman. Orajron Asricul j turai ColUaia, Cwrvallia. The prices of poultry and eggs fol-, low closely the trend of wheat prices and of eorn prices, tbe two staple poul-( try foods in the United States. Tbe tendency is for poultry keepers to cur- j tail the flock of poultry when prices j of food are high, and to increase the flock when the prices of food are low. When tbe grain prices rise more poul try are sent to market, and later on' there Is a scarcity of both poultry and ! The question for tbe poultryman and the farmer to consider in this connec tion is, at what prices of grain does it pay the farmer to market the grain rather than feed it to the poultry, for tbe business of the farmer is to get the most out of the soil, whether it be in raw or concentrated products. It is a fine point to determine ji.st where the profit in feeding poultry as well as other livestock disappears in the up ward tendency of the price of grain j in other words, at what point ia there a parting of the ways between a profit and a lossf The general tendency among farmers is to sell the grain, rather than feed it, long before the parting of the ways has been reached, and it is a knowledge of this fact that assures the skillful and persistent feeder of a profit. The parting of the ways conies very soon to the majority of feeders. One man may be telling the eiact truth when he says that he ean make no profit in feeding seventy five-cent wheat, and another may be equally truthful when he says he esn make a profit in feed ing one-dollar wheat. The difference In the two men is a difference in skill in feeding. With good stock and good care the skillful feeder will make a profit in feeding high-priced grain, but no one ean make a profit with poor stock snd poor care at any price for ?rain. j The price of wheat is higher now than it baa been for probably ten or fifteen years, and it is frequently said that it is too high to feed to chickens, Two or three things should be con sidered in this connection. First, the prices of poultry and eggs will rise if many chickens are marketed, and the farmer who keeps his chickens will make as much profit as he did when the price of wheat was low. That is, the price of poultry products will ad just itself to the prices of grain. Sec ond, how much does it really cost to feed a ben for a year Does any one knowf In experiments made by the writer, covering several years, in which every ounce of food was weighed, six pens of Leghorn hens consumed during the year 04 pounds wheat, 2!G pounds corn, 203 pounds outs, 112 pounds bran and shorts and 235 pounds skim milk, in addition to some animal food. The eost of the total fond per fowl for the year varied in different pens from 61 cents to 78 cents, and averaged CO cents. Tbe wheat was charged at 1 cent a pound, corn at 1 V cents, Bats at a cent, skim milk at a fifth of a cent and bran and shorts at three fifths of a eent. The animal food cost from S to 6 ecnts pur fowl. The wheat constituted nearly a half of the total coat. The hens laid an averago of 144 eggs per fowl, valued at $1.08 at local prices for eggs. The prices were from 10 cents to 25 cents per dozen, much lower than the prices are in Oregon at the present time. If wheat had been worth, say, 90 cents and bad been charged for at that rate, and bran at 1 cent a pound, the cost per fowl would have been about 16 cents more, or 80 cents instead of CO cents. Hut eggs are also higher in price than they were then. Taking the monthly ecrg yield of the six pens of Leghorns and computing the value of the eggs laid each month at the average wholesale prices of eggs in l'ortland daring the past two yours, ine results woum be as follows: Kggs Trice luid. per clox. 35o 3.1c 2(5j 2.1o 20c 20e ISo 20o SSs S3e 30a Value.

In other words, on the basis of present prices, food eosting 80 cents when fed to hens produces eggs worth $2.58. This is a pretty good margin of profit In feed log 90 cent wheat. It may be said that the averago flock of hens does not lay 144 eggs per fowl. Thst is true. It is also true that 144 eggs per fowl is not phenom ensl. The right kind of hens properly attended should average 130 and well bred hens considerably more. The av crage farm flock will not average 125, probably not 100. In these experiments all the food eaten waa paid for at market price and the eost averaged only Co cents per ben. Tbe cost would have teen only 80 cents if the wheat had eost 90 cents per bushel. The farmer, how ever, who keepa fifty or a hundred hens ean do better than that, for on the average farm that number of hens msy be kept largely on the wsste pro duets or by-products of the fsrm.

The clover or grasa they eat will have little marketable value. The destruction of grasshoppers in tho clover and grain lields and of buga in tbe orchard will, where these iuscets are bad, offset a large part of the. an nual cost of food tor tbe fowls in better crops. In experiments with larger breeds the' cost of feeding was greater. Tbe cost of feeding 1'ly mouth Kocks aver aged tl.15 per fowl and of Wyandottes si.uo. This extra cost is largely offset when tbe fowls are marketed, the larger breeds bringing more than tbe suiull breeds. In answer to an inquiry relative to the way in which to tell tbe difference between tbe edible mushroom and the poisonous variety, tbe station replied: "There are so many different species of mushrooms, and tliey are so nearly like the poisonous varieties, that it is impossible for an inexperienced person to detect the difference. Itotanists .do not usually recognize any difference be tween mushrooms and toadstools. The best way is t Imrn to recognize cer tain species t edible mushrooms, even though tbe number be few. A common variety, known botanically as 'Agaricus cam pest rias L.,' is not poisonous, aSd by the following description you may be able to recognize it: "The stem is cylindrical, or tapers a little toward the lower eud. Near its upper end is a sort of collar, usually termed a 'ring,' which encircles it. This is very delicate, white like the stem, and of very thin, satiny texture. The circular, expanded disk into which ths stem fits is called the 'cap.' The surface ia sometimes white, although sometimes brownish, and usually cov ered by a thin layer of delicate threads. The flesh or inner portion is more com pact, and is white also. Numerous thin plates, or 'gills,' are on the. under side of the cap, which radiate from near the stem to tbe margin of the cap. When tbe plant is very young the gills are first white, but soon become a dark, pink color, aad in age changes to dark brown. The substance of the stem is less compact at tne center, but the stem is not renlly hollow, though in some in. stances thero are slight indications of it. This mushroom win be found in sod, where shade is plentiful. "It is probable that the mushroom responsible for a majority of the deaths from eating this plant is the Amanita phalloidea. By a novice, it might ens ily be taken for the Agaricus campes tris. However, the former usually oc curs in the woods, while the edible va riety just described occurs in open places. Professor O. F. Atkinson, of the botany divixion of tho Cornell univer kity agricultural experiment station, de scribes the Amanita phalloides as fol lows: "It is pure white, and possesses an annulus or . collar, but what is most important the base of the stem rests in a cup-like envelope . called the volva. . . . The pileus in this form is smooth, viscid to the. touch, and pure white, as is also the annulus, stem and volva, though the latter is soiled by particles of earth. The stem is nearly cylindrical, tapering slightly from the bulbous base. It is hollow, or stuffed with cottony, mycelial threads. The gills are usually pure white, even in ago, and arc nearly free from the stem. When decaying the plant emits a very disagreeable odor." Froifi Washington State college, Pullman. An Inquiry which will be of interest to fruit growers of southwestern Wash ington and northwestern Oregon was referred to tho department of horticul ture. It follows: "Kindly give me some advice con cerning the growing of raspberries and blackberries under the conditions found in southwestern Washington. I would be obliged to you for information con cerning the growing of plums, cherries and apples in this region. 'I - Professor W. 8. Thornber replied: "You will have no difficulty in growing raspberries and blackberries in your part of the country, providing you use good Judgment in selecting your va rieties and in planting. If the low land is well drained you had better plant Di.teaufrries, nut 11 me iana is not wen drained you will have difficulty in growing any form of small fruit there. However, tho blackberry will come nearer to growing in poorly drained land than the raapberrica will. In choosing varieties of blackberries, use the Mam moth for extra early, the Snyder for middle early and the Evergreen for late. Kaspbrrries require a dryer and, rsi-ri-tiijr, wen drained gou, ana witn such conditions in your part of the state you should be able to crow re- marknble crops of them. The Cuthbert ia the standard for commercial work on the west side; also the Antwerp, the nupenaiive ana me Aiaritoro are excel lent berries for growth there. "Plums will do well upon a Ver mont soil, and will stand a poorly drained soil better than the majority of umrr i runs. tne i earn, ine Xellow Kgg. the Tragedy, the Willard, the Loin bard and other varieties almost without number will do well in the region you refer to. Almost any cherry will suc ceed there. The Koyal Anns, the Bings, the Lamberts andHho May Dukes would be good varieties to plant. The varie ties or appies mat will do especially well there are more or less limited. The Yellow Transparent, the Duchess, the Oldenberg and the Gravenstcin for early apples, and the Northern Spy, Olympia, lUblwia, Grimes Golden and possibly a few Rhode Island Greenings ror later varieties will do quite well. Other varieties, such as Den Davis, Gano and the Jonathan, do not seem to be entirely adapted to your part ef Washington." From Washington State cotirge, tiumaa.
