VALUE OF BREAD AS FOOD

Yolk* of ggge Addid to OatmMl l?*
erasN IU Nutritive Worth, lay*
Heelth ?nd Longevity.
No oUmt foodstuff used by mto to
aort) eatlafylag than bread when ta
ken with other articles of diet, end
many of the latter gain thereby la na
trllive value end power of assimila
tion, aa, for instance, milk. By else
ply dryloi the sltcee of bread, tbua
making "toast," breed can be more
readily digested. It la also more eae
lly masticated, and for tbla reason
eenewhat stale bread la to be pr*
ferred to that freehly baked.
Of tbe various flours made of oer>
eala, wheet flour la the moet used.
The finer the flour le ground, especial
ly wheat Hon r, the more of the nutri
tive substances are lost, and Wheat
bread la poorly sbeorbed. Rye flour,
when It contains bran, la very badly
assimilated. Oa|a are even more poor
ly taken tip. When oats are to be
need It la best to eat the products
manufactured especially with a view
to the dlgeetiblUty. In my estimation,
says a writer In Health and Longe
vity, puree of oatmeal with two yolka
forms a very healthful food. In which
the eggs not only greatly Improve
the taete, but also lncreaee the nutri
tive value. Very valuable preparer
tloaa for children's use can be made,
with oatmeal when taken with milk.
COLD FORMERLY WAS FATAL
Natlvee Who Inhabited Arabian Dee
erte Centuries Age Perlehed When
North Winds Swept Over Them.
It seems oolda in the head were a lot
worse In the olden times than they
think of being nowadays. In fact
they were epidemics then, and used to
sweep across the deserts, killing off
the natives by the hundreds.
Those peoples in the Arabian/, des
erts seem to have been the worst
sufferers, and their cause waa due
ohiefly to the Influence of frightful
winds from the north. The country
waa not built up In those days as it
Is now, and nature had her way, and
her ravages were felt in all lande
and by all nations.
L Indeed, the- aacients alt deacrlbed
this peat as due to the wind, and the
symptoms appear to have been essen
tially catarrhal, ftven the animals
are recorded to be ihe victims of these
same dreadful colds, which started 4a
the head and went through the en
tlrd body, reeultlng In dreadful pains
and shortly in death.
So the next time that you feel as
though the end of the earth were
about to come for you, just remember
if you were living 3,000 years ago you
would be in a lot worse fix.
All in the Scheme.
Very, very busy wan the editor.
Wild won his hair and clammy waa
his brow. Ho could hardly be Been
for the litter of papers confronting
him, and his temper waa distinctly
ruffled.
The door opened and a seedy, un
kempt person insinuated himself into
the room. ?
y "I should like to know," he began,
pompously and airily, "If there Is an
opening here?"
The editor laid aside his pen and
sat back In his chair, eyeing the
stranger with a devouring glance.
"Sir," came the grim reply, "if 1
may mention, the matter, an ingenious
and able journeyman carpenter and
Joiner, probably foreseeing your visit,
welcome or otherwise, has provided
an excellent and well-finished opening.
Turn about and the opening faces
you.
"By gyrating the knob to the right
you may avail yourself of that open
ing, but kindly do not trip over the
mat!"
Then, gathering up his pen unew,
the editor began work again. ? Harris

"Celestial" as Applied to China.
Everyone knows the epithet "Celes
tial" applied to China, but few know
its origin. According to a very old
legend, Thibet is a fragment of a
planet, once peopled by a yellow race,
which in Bome way became detached
and fe* on the earth. The dazed In
habitants of the fragment were unin>
lured, and, cold and hungry, they
made their way toward China, which
they peopled. This origin of the Chi
nese race led to their calling them
selves "Celestials," and it Is for this
reason that the emperor calls himself
Son of Heaven. Such, at least, is the
legend.
8late Production.
The slate production of the United
States Is practically confined "to the
northeastern part of the country. Al
though scattered deposits, more or
less developed, occar elsewhere, the
eastern slate is shipped to supply mar
kets on the western coast as well
as in the central aqd southern parts
of the country. Pennsylvania is the
greatest prpducer.
Another Reason.
"I see where a burglar has reform
ed."
"Did his conscience hurt him?"
"No. It seems that ho is a light
hearted fellow and he found it a great
hardship not to bo able to sing at his
work."

Oats cut at the proper time make
a very good quality of hay.
Bvery pig that goes to paature

The best way to get nitrogen Into
the soil is to sow it in with olover. !
Select a gilt that is Inclined to be
growtby rather than a fat, chubby one.
You cannot rush a hog, and as soon
aa you try It you will get* In a mess.

During the summer months, the
ewes should have access to luxuriant '
jpasture.

If you can't afford to buy a pure
bred cow or bull, buy a calf and breed
up a herd.
There 1a just as much need of Im
proved dairymen as there la- of lm- '
proved herds. f
When In doubt as to what use to j
make of hen manure* try it as a top ?
dressing on grass.
.. T^e farm should be well supplied
with garden tools if you want the
boys to do the work. f
-I
Continued close confinement in the
stalls is liable to cause permanent en
largement of the joints.
This is the season to plan the build
ings and changes that will bo made
on the farm a little later.
Big machinery is not always profit
able. The machine should fit the farm
and the power to handle it.
If you cannot provido a dip for I
swine, give them a spray. The boys ?
can spray Iiokh without any trouble.
The horses that are best *We to
Btand hard strains are those which
work steadily every day in the week.
When opening your silo bear in
mind that whenever you change feed
the change should be made gradually.
One good cow well fed and cared
for will give more net profits than
two good cows not so well fed and
cared for. ?.
Raising chickens in confinement up
der too artificial conditions leads to
ultimate trouble in< the laying and
breeding pens.
The best piece of advice for a be
ginner in poultry raising Is to go slow
at first. Start with a few birds and
learn as you go.
Once more through the corn will
add many bushels to your crop. Muk
zle the horse, use a short whlffletree
and cultivate shallow.
Prune a little every year rather
than too much one year. It will be
much easier for you, and a great deal
better for the orchard.
No one who has a first-class garden
is ever heard to express any regrets
about it. Not bo the one who has none
and buys his vegetable In tin cans.
? ? t
Do you have some tomato and early
cabbage plants growing? If not it isn't
too late yet to plant some seed. Get
busy though, spring .J# comirig^faBt (
A prominent horticulturist mm \
"Never mulch young trees. It draws
the roots toward tho surface and
makos them susceptible to changes In
temperature."
If you are not sure whether or not
a hen is broody enough to take eggs,
put your hand under her breast. If
sho grips it with her breast, 6he is
ready for eggs.
It is best not to let a new Bitter
have eggs until you are sure sfcrar
means business. Give hor two or
three eggs for a couple of days and
see if she is a sticker. .
Only a few farmers at tho present
time have the ideal ration for dairy
cows, but they Can and should ar
range to grow it on the farm and
have it on hand at all times.
The trailing nasturtiums are among
the easiest annuals to grow and will
give a supply of flowers the whole
^?^?on. IMant when danger of frost
* prw, or In pots or boxes, and trans j
to the open later.
Keep ahead of weeds.
Geese are money makers. 1
Bran Is excellent for layers. .
Shelter the manure spreader.
Cartful feeding- prevents scours.
Potatoes are only a fair feed for
oows.
Clean cultivation in the orchard is
necessary.
Corn silage and alfalfa hay make
a balanced ration.
The cow that is a good producer
must be fed liberally.
Don't make the garden too small
for the band-wheel hoe.
Alkali water has very Uttle effect up
on the flavor; of butter.
The best way t6 kill dut weeds is
never to let 'em come up.
Two-flfths of the world's 100 million
swine are in the United States.
The milk giving quality can be de
veloped only when it is inherited.

There is much more to plowing
than BlttiQg up. and holding the lines.
Similarity of. breeding stock pro
duces offspring of much greater value.
Give the stock plenty of salt, and be
sure they drill ? an aoundance of wa
ter. ,
The most expensive help on some
farms is the dog sent to round up the
cows.
The vegetable and fruit garden can
be made the most profitable acre on
the farm.
? T ,
Success In dairy farming depends as
much on the man as upon any natural
condition,
In planting a new orchard it Is far
better to use too much space than to
crowd the trees.
Sunshine, pure air and clean sur
roundings will do much to make tjie
dairy barn more attractive.
If you must use manure in the newly
planted orchard, better put it on top
of the ground? ^never In the hole with
the tree.
Calves should have the milk warm
from the separator, and the pigs
should have their share sweet and In
the same way. .
5 Not much use treating seed. pota
toes for scab if they are to be planted
In the same ground where the crop
?was scabby last year.
Many of the good dairymen started
with Shorthorn and dual purpose
cows. As soon as they begtta to study,
however, they changed.
Two eyes to the piece Is the right
( way to cut seed potatoes, but have
the piece large enough so aB to give
the sprouts a good start.
The common disk harrow found
upon every farm in the northwest Is
one of the most valuable of all the
implements used by the farmer.
? ? In setting out trees the holes should
not bo dug too^ far in advance. The
sooner the tree Is set after digging the
hole the better the start it will make.
Enlarge the early orchard for early
^Jjruite.Vlt is rather difficult to have a
surplus of early and late fruits. The
middle season is more easily over
I stocked.
1 The black raspberry thrives best on
land that lies well for natural drain
age. It can not be grown on land that
is naturally of a wet and therefore
cold nature.
Milking Is one of the most impor
tant tasks on the farm and should be
so considered. ? It can scarcely be
called a side Issue when so much
^profit depends upon it.
The silo has now become almost a
necessity on the farm, if profits are
looked for. There aro many farms
on which it is not yet found, but the "
number of these Is decreasing.
Poor butter is the CUrso of ISe farm
dairy. It is better economy to sell
the butter-fat or the whole-milk than
to try to manufacture tho product at
home if you have not the equipment
with which to turn out & hTgTf quality.
