. START EGGPLANT IN- WARM, SUNNY PLACE *Rich Soil and Good Cultivation Is ' Necessary. Occasional Applications of Very Weak Liquid Manure ls Beneficial— Little'Flea Beetle Is Most Troublesome. Eggplant, ' so called because the great fruits are about the size and shupe of an ostrich egg, is closely re- lated to the tomato and pepper and requires " very much the ‘same treat- ent as do peppers, say garden spe- cialists of the United States Depart- ment ‘of Agriculture. . The eggplant is very easily injured by cold and the plants . must, be started Indoors throughout -the greater’ part of the country.; - Start the’ seed in the house by sowing in a small .box filled withe good §oil, The small plants should ; Yielder.

C. Bisliop, of Dallas, Tex., In an address before the American Association for the Advancement of Science, at thelr meeting In Toronto, recently. “The loss comes,” he sald, “through a falling off :in the milk flow, illness among the cattle, due to Irritation and | worry, destruction of hides and wast- age; of ment when the beast finally goes to the block.” “When the grubs reach the back of the animal,”.sald -the speaker, “they make their presence apparent by the | lunip or swelling- thelr body - causes.- \ Gradually they make their way out through the back of the animal and drop off, to begin all over agaln their life history. ~ The only hope of dealing with the pest lies In energetic action by icattle owners In working out and destroying the warbles from the backs of 'thelr stock. The herd should be gone over systematically every . 80 days, the grubs squeezed out and ‘de- stroyed. ' Of course, even: then, there _ ‘18 10ss because of the holes left in the hide; five punctures of the back or sides’ by warbles reduce any hide to No, 2 grade.” _ CLEANING AND GRADING SEED No. "Other Single Farm, Operation Which Gives Larger Returns in Producing Crops. There I8 no single farm operation~ so easily and cheaply done, which gives larger returns than the thorough} cledning and grading of all seed sown. Besides clenning out tife weed seeds, the light weight seeds are taken out when_ the job is properly done, thus preventing the' reproduction, .of the poorer plants. . This practice carried on year after year permits the in- crease of the best and kills out the poorest. Thorough . cleaning and grading of all seeds. planted. is -the first: step ‘toward a successful crop.. There i3 no time Illke the present to put the seed in proper shape for plant-. ing. —_— - HIGH PRICE FOR CORN CROP Is Given to—Purebreds Make - Best - Raturns.
