FEEDING BARLEY TO HORSES Results Obtained in Experiments With Eight Percheron Mares on Government Farm. A test to compare the relative value of light and heavy weight bar ley as feeds-for farmwork horses was made last year by the United States Department of Agriculture, atjhe ex perl mental farm, BeltsviHe, Md. Eight Percheron mares were used In the test, two receiving lightweight barley, two heavyweight barley, and four receiving oats as a check. The test was continued 22 weeks. The mares were used in all the routine work of the farm, which Included the heavy field work of plowing, etc., dur ing the spring months. The barley used was the commercial grade of heavy barley (rolled) and light bar ley (rolled), the heavy barley weigh ing 47.6 and the light 40.7 pounds to the bushel, accordiflt to the tested weights determined by grain Investi gations, bureau of markets.

Injury Probably Doos Not Reduce Yield ot Fruit Affected Plants Serve to Carry Ail ment Over From Year to Year in Absence of Potatoes—Other Plante Suspected. (Preoared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Recent investigations made by the United States Department of Agricul ture on the control of the potato jyart -disease, a European trouble found hi this country in 1918, disclosed the fact that this disease also attacks tomatoes. Out of 28 varieties of tomatoes planted in wart-lnfested gardens In eastern Pennsylvania in 1920, 26 were .found'to be susceptible to the disease. Wart Is a very serious disease of po tatoes, causlfig practically a total loss In badly infested soil. It attacks tlx*, tubers, causing warty outgrowths, which may practically cover or con sume the potatoes. Its present known occurrence In the United States-hreon- , ■ l',: ‘ ’V It mares fed on -barley afid those fed on oats were practically the same, and there was no indication that either feed possessed outstanding merit over the other. The weights of the mares fed on light barley remained more constant than the weights of the mares fed on heavy barley, and the former seemed to be slightly more thrifty than the tatter, although tba advantage seemed slight Reflect upon your present blessings, , of which every man has many, not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.—Dickens. WHOLESOME pESSERTS. A dessert which- may be given the children with freedom Is baked apples In various ways; the fol- * lowing will be found a little different from the usual manner of serving them: Individual Baked Ap plet. — Use ‘the small glass baking dishes. Cut apples in quarters and jemove all the core. Set tW apples in cups to resemble a whole niiple. Fill the center with pieces of figs, dates or raisin#. Add to each cup one tablespoonful of water. Bake un til tender. The skin is not removed from the apple. Serve hot or cold with cream and sugar. Ginger Cream.—Soak three-fourths of a teaspoonful of gelatin in one tablespoonful of cold water. .Make d custard of one egg, one tablespoonful of sugar. Six tablespoonfuls of milk, a pinch of salt, beating all with an egg beater. Cook over wafer until the spoon Is coated, then add one table- spoonful of minced Canton ginger and two tablespoonfuls of sirup; add the gelatin to the hot custard and when thick stir in one-hulf cupful of whipped cream.- Pour into molds and chill. Lemon Crumb Pie.—Grate the rind and take the juice of a lemon. Mix two tpbiespoonfuls of butter with five tablespoonfuls of sugar. Stir the sugar mixture Into three-quarters of a pint of hot milk, and cool; add the yolks cf three eggs, well beaten, and the lemon juice and rind. Line a pie plate with an inch layer of buttered crumbs and pour In the mixture. Cover when baked and firm with a meringue made from the whites. Brown in the oven and serve jcold. Nut Mince Pie.—Mix together in the order given the following ingredi ents: One-half cupful of chopped walnut meats, one-half cupful of seed ed ral&.ns, one cupful of chopped ap ples, one-half cupful of dark corn sirup, one-fourth of a cupful it cider vinegar, one-fourth of a cupful each of fruit juice of any kind of canned fruit, molasses, one-half teaspoonful each of allspice and cloves and one teaspoonful each of cinnamon ;:nd salt.

The disease attacks only the stems and root# of the tomato plant, causing small warts; It probably does not re duce the yield of fruit. The importance of the discovery of the susceptibility-of tomatoes to pota to wart lies In the fact that affected to mato plants will serve to carry the dis ease OYer from year to year In the ab sence of potatoes, and to introduce it into new localities through the trans planting of tomato seedlings grown In Infested soil. It Is not yet known defl nitely whether all varieties of tomatoes are susceptible to the wart disease, but It is feared that such may be the case. Other plants belonging to the potato family are suspected of being suscepti ble to wait, and some of these have been tested, but with Inconclusive re suits. These tests will be repeated.

Do not add “fresh eggs to a tray containing those . which are un dergoing incubation. Turn the eggs twice daily aft er the second and until the nlne^-V teenth day. Turn them before caring for the lamps. Cool them once dally, according to the weather, during this period. Attend to the machine care fully at regular hours. Keep the lamp and wick clean. Test the eggs on the seventh and fourteenth days. Do not open the machine aft er the eighteenth day until the chickens are hatched.

Flavor with A-few drops of vanilla. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve; z Most Desirable Quality of Hay Pro duced if Cut When Pods Are Full- Grown and Matured. As a rule cowpeas should not be cut for hay before the pods begin to turn yellow. The best quality Is pro duced and the hay cures.most readily If the vines are cut when most of the pods are full grown and a consider able number of them are mature. At that stage of growth none of the best hay varieties will have dropped their leaves and the plants will have prac tically attained their full growth. Are You Pale? Thin? Weak? Enrich Your Blood!
