War Savings Stamps and Liberty

The Liberty Loan caiupaigu and War
Savings Stamp campaign are not rivals? no
more than the Huper-dreadnaughtH and. de
stroyers of our navy are rivals.
The Liberty Loan and War Savings
Stamps aro two forms of the same financial
operation of the United States government.
They wore authorized by the same voto of
Congress and are intended to supplement
each other. They are both of paramount importance to the financing of
the war. The Liberty Louu campaign is primarily to obtain the many
billions of dollars necessary toward paying the expenses of war and l?*ud
i 11 K to our Allies.
The peculiar significance of the war savings campaign is that it is
not designed merely to get money, but to enable the government to spend
money. Obviously the government cteu not spend money unless it can buy
(something with the money. If the civilian population continues to pur
chase as much goods and services now us it did in peace time, then the
armies must go short of munitions and other things indispensable to
them. That was Lord Kitchener's warning to Hnglaud. There are not
enohgh material and labor in this country to supply the war needs of the
government and at the same time the peace needs of the civilian popula
tion.' If the people persist in needless purchasing, the government might
as well not have any- Tnoh&yasnot tobe able to buy goods and services
for that money. Wars are not fought witli(jnoney ? they are fought with
the goods and serviees that money can buy. ?
Successive Liberty Loans will be sold in successive campaigns at in
tervals. The War Savings campaign will last throughout the year ? no
doubt until the war is over. It aims at developing habits of thrift that
shall make the sales of stamps cumulative. And the person of very limit
ed means who buys a few dbllars worth of War Savings Stamps dods
his' aharo as well as the wealthier man who buys a quantity of Liberty
Loan bonds. Millions who could not afford to invest in Liberty Bonds
will be able to help by investing in War Savings Stamps. The two cam
paigns are. in reality, only one?that of financing for victory.

per cow per day is what dairymen who use
Purina Dairy Feed are getting.
The extra cost of this ideal ration is only
about one cent per cow per day which shows
n handsome margin of profit at today's
milk prices.
Even cows on test during heavy
milking periods keep in idfcal condition
when fed PURINA DAIRY FEED because
this perfectly balanced ration supplies
all of the elements required for milk.

Spray Applied In Growing Season Will
Kill Tree ??Should Bo Used
During Winter
On account of the resistance of
these insecta to spray materials it in
impracticable to apply remedial meas
ures during the growing season. A
spray that will kill these pests in most
cases will either Kill or' seriously in
jure the tree if applied during tho
growing season. Jfor this reason these
?prays are given only in winter when
the trees are leafless and dormant.
Spray pumps am' spray materials are
ununually high in price %t the preaent
time. Muny people who feel that they
can not buy a pump at the present
prlco could no ?'oubt arrange to bor
row or rent one from some one in
the neighborhood. In other cases
neighbors may prefer to club together
ami buy a pump to be used by the
various members of the club. In buy
ing a spray pump for orchard use pur
chase nothing less than a good bar
rel pump. These vary tn construc
tion, some having more desirable fea
tui?s for certain purposes than oth
ers. (Full information on these points
may be obtained by writing Expert- *
ment Station, Clemson College, 8, C.)
The line of discharge should always
be equipped with a leakless shutoff
costing somewhere around 75o. An
extension rod can be made from oije
fourth Inch iron pipe having standard
threads cut at each end. The length,
may vkry to suit the circumstances,
which may bp three feet for grape
vines, six feet for the trained peach
orchard and nine feet for tho taller
trees. A handy extension rod is made
of three sections of one-fourth inch
Iron piping with couplings and by
Joining these, extensions of various
lengths can be made,'
Lime sulphur wash# Is one of the
standard and fool proof winter sprays
but at the present time is exception*
ally high in price, ranging from 16c.
to 19c. per gallon in fifty gallon lotft
P. O. B. factory. Those intending to
order lime sulphur wash from the
commercial plants should do bo as
early as convenient owing to the con
gested condition of the flrelght and
express services. In some cases com
munities may desire to make this
material at home in which case the
'following method Is recommended as
[being entirely practicable^ This div
ision used the following method which
was adapted from Mr. Ste^jart's bulle
tin of the Pennsylvania Experiment
Station:
A one and one-half or two inch
steam pipe Js fitted to a steam boiler,
horizontally with a gate valve at the
end so that the escape of steam can
be regulated. Prom the gate valve
a one inch pipe extends downward
and into a fifty gallon molasses or coat
oil barrel. / At the end of this pipe
in. the bottom of the barrel attach a
**T" composed of oae inch piping.
The end breach 'WlHfTor the "T" being
closed with a ?ap. Bore four to six
holes in each wing of the "T" for the
live steam to escape. This division
used 20 lbs. of steam which was suf
ficient for the boiling of several l>?r
rels at the same time.
How to Boil.
Use eighty pounds of sulphur, forty
pounds of a good grade of lime not
less than 90 per cent ?ure. . Pour Into
the barrel about twelve gallons of
water, add the lime, <4irn on the
steam, and when slaking is good add
the 'sulphur stirring vigorously. Do
not allow the mixture to become dry.
When slaking is over fill the barrel
twith water to three inches .of the
'top. Boll until all yellow sulphur has
disappeared which in our experiments
require from forty to fifty minutes.
Boll ae vigorously as possible without
overflowing the barrel, and boiling cfn
be instantly an daccurately regulated
/with the gate valve. -If Impure limu
Is used the -spray is unsatisfactory
and a great amount of aedlment oc
curs. * After making a couple of bar
rels one becomes quite efficient at it
and can make a very uniform mater
ial to be diluted at the rate of one
(gallon to eight gallons of water. At
our plant we made the wash and this
jwaa delivered at the boiler to growers
(Who came in *r*Cons and cars bring*
jing their own receptacles.
? If the material appears to vary a
specific gravity test can be made and
?the amount of dilution written on each
Jbarrel In chalk. Purchase a spray

THE HOI BED AND
EARLY VEGETABLES
THe COLD FRAME 8HOULD AL
WAYS ACCOMPANY THI
HOTBED.
HOW 10 CONSTRUCT ONE
1^+. >;* u . I
Plants Should First Be Starts#
7 Hotbed Thsn Transplanted to ths
Cold Frams.
For forcing curly vegetables suck aa
tomatoes, okk plants, peppers, etc., the
hotbed is IndispeiiHable. To construct
& hotbed an eastern or southern ex
posure should be selected. The
frame ahouid be t> feet wide and any
desired length. Ah u rule for the fanv
ily garden, a hotbed G by G feet will
be sufficient for ronriug ail young
plants for the gurden. It would be
muc^t better, however, to have u frame
6 by 12 feet. This will afford ample
space for transplanting the plants and
give them more room lu order that
they may properly develop. The soil
la excavated to a depth of 18 inches
and tho frame built 6 feet \yido and
the desired longtli and fitted over the
trench. The frame should slopo to
wards the east in o|-der to admit sun
light. The bottom of the frame is
filled with fermenting stable manure.
This should be mixed thoroughly be
fore being placed lu the rramo and
packed firmly and watered freely im
mediately afterwards., lu the south
12 Inches of manure 'Will furnish suf
ficient heat for. hotbeds; while in the
north, where the weather is more se
vere, two feet of manure is usually
used. On top of tbe manure ia placed
six inches of garden soil which haa
been well sifted and .is free from all
roots and trash, This should' be
slightly packed lu order to make it
perfectly level. The sash Of the
frame are alwayn three feet wide and
six feet long. The frame, therefore,
should either be constructed three,
six, nine, or 12 feet wide. After the
garden soil has been pluced in tho
frame, it is well to covet4 this with one
Inch of finely sifted woods earth.
Woods earth Is used because it is
always free from grass and . weed
seeds which are frequently very trou
blesome when the garden soil ts used.
After the bed has been completed the
eash are put in place and the fram<?
allowed to stand foi; 3 or 4 days beifor j
planting the seed. This is dons in
order to allow the bed to become thor
oughly warm before planting. The
seeds may then be planted, watered
slightly, and the sasli replaced. As
<ieon as tbe plants come up the bed
should be ventilated if the weather
conditions are favorable. Kven when
the temperature is near freezing in
the early morning, "it will be warm
enough before mid-day to ventilate
the bed for a few hours. If the
frames are not properly ventilated,
the plants will grow too tall and be-J
come tender and will not withstand
the transplatlng without being injur
ed. When a frame is properly con
structed it will last for a number of
years. Each year, however, fresh ma
nure will have to be placed in the
frame. The tyune hotbed may be used
for various -kinds of vegetables ? For
instance one may first grow cabbage
and cauliflower. After these are re
moved or transplanted in the cold
frame, tomatoes, egg plants and pep
per eeed may be sown in the aamo
frame. These will be ample size for
transplanting by the time the weath*
er conditions are favorable. Great
care should be exercised in watering
the plants. If they are watered too
freely during warm weather they will
grow too rapidly, and if watered too
freely during excessively cold weath
er, they ere liabel to be injured. It
(a, therefore, recommended that the
pleat* be watered just enough to keep
them in * good growing condition end
not allow them to suffer.
- - Cold- Frame. ? The cold _ frame
should always accompany the hotbed,
the plants first being started in the
hotbed and . then transplanted to the
cold frame, and from there to the open
ground whenever the weather- condl* i
tlone will permit. The cold frame
differs from the hotbed In only one re
spect, It does not have thejnanurs at
tb a bottom of the bed to produce heat,
otherwise the frame Is constructed in
exactly the same way as the hotbed. ^
Cold frames are sometimes covered
with heavy canvas instead of glass.
This la much cheaper than the glees
and the frames are more eaelly harp
died when covered by canvas than
whea covered with glen*. The plants,
however, will not grow off as rapidly
hut this, es a rule Is an advantage
in favor of the canvas-covered frames.
The chief trouble with the amateur
gsrdeaer Is that hs forces his plants
too rapidly. -
