The remainder of the potato can then be cooked and used on the table. The department, however, empha- sizes the fact that under this plan the seed must have especial care or the plan will fail. As soon as the eves are cut from the potato, if the plant- ing is not done imediately, the cuts should be set on a piece of paper, and placed in a cool room and ailowed to remain there until the cut surface has become dry. They recommend then that the cones be put away in a shal- iow box where it is quite cold, in fact the nearer they get to frost without freezing. the better. The planting of such seed requires a seed bed very well prepared. The soil must be thoroughly pulverized and moisture conditions must be normal. This emall seed placed in soil which is lumpy or which is dry has little chance to live, and less chance of growing into a sturdy plant. It is rec- ommended that in panting such seeds that they be placed not more than twelve inches apart. By using this means the man who nas a small garden need not g0 to a great deal of trouble nor expense in obtaining his seed potatoes. The eyes may be cut from the potatoes while they are being prepared for the table and stored away until planting time. WHEN TO PLANT YOUR GARDEN. Many Things Fer the Beginners to Consider. No doubt there are many who wiil grow vegetables for the first time this season. These beginners will have many things to consider. and one of the most important of all is “When shall I plant-this or that?” Do things when they shou'd be done is one of the main essentials in successtul gardening. Waiting a few days or a week after a thing should be done causes more work wita poor- er returns than is the case if it done on time. If it is a choice berween going fishing or weeding the garden, Detter weed the garden if it needs it. A little hoeinz and stirring of the soil as soon as the plants show or soon after transplanting, will start them off quickly, will help to keep down the weeds 'and save much labor. Many people forget that it is the stirring of the soil admitting air and cgtting off the weeds that heips to br¥hg about successful growth. The addition _of fertility does not insure a crop. The soil shouid also be stirred immediately after a rain; because it helps to con- serve the moisture which will be needed later in the season. It we could all be acquainted Wwith ihe native home of the plants we are striving to produce the question of when to plant would be an easy one. Some plants come from the tropical reglons, others from the warm tem- perate zone and still others from the cool temperate zons. Since this is true, it is reasonable that some wiil need to be planted in the spring while the ground it still cool, and others should wait until the hot days come. The plants in our . gardens which will do well at low temperatures are onions, peas, parenips, radish. cab-|. bage, lettuce, beets and carrots, and in about the order mentioned. I onions are sown as soon as the soil is well setiled in the spring and can be worked without becoming lumpy or sticky they will start befors the weeds and be ready for cultivatitg ear] thus saving much hand weeding. Peas many also be sown early, the smooth varieties first, the wrinkied a few days later. Then in close succession the other plants given in this first list. Some of these plants may be trans- planted and so may be started by the kitchen fire in a cigar box and then transplanted to the fleld as soon as the weather will permit. The cabbage and lettuce are often started in this man- ner. The plants which.come to us from the warmer portions of the earth and therefore must have warm weather for best growth, are beans, tomatoes. corn, cucumbers, musk melons, squash, Peppers and egg piant. Some of these such as tomatoes, peppers . and egg plant, require such a long season that to get the best results they must be started in 2 warm place in the house, then transferred to the garden when the ol and air are weil warmed. None of the plants in this Mst will stand frost, and are often injured by cold winds. It is therefore necessary to g0 rather slow in setting them out in the garden. Corn may be pianted directly in the field for it can be planted more deep- ly than the other varieties in our garden.

The enormous importance of the cow and her average yield may be under- st00d .in the statement that this coun- try carries: 22,000,000 cows to make about $8,000,000,000° pounds of milk in a year. and - that.the substitution of the 19,000-pound vielders of the Hol- l1and class for our 4000-pound yielders ‘would _enable our - farmers make our tatal of milk with about 9,000,000 cows, in other words, with 13,000,000 cows less.
