Then |t ^ pould seep tne disease out witn 'comparatively small expense, It would be bo much easier and more economical to wipe out tuberculosis now, while, comparatively speaking, it amounts to practically nothing, than to wait until it becomes a costly and all but impossible task, as it now is in many New England and Middle Western states. These states think it worth while, in fact, absoultely essential, no matter what the cost. Isn't it a ta'hk doubly worth while for the South to undertake now while everything is favorable? The eradication of tuberculosis will make a sound foundation for a great Southern dairy industry. Ask 'your county officials to help make your county tuberculosis free. The progressive Farmer. LET'S GET HALF OUR FOOD FROM ONE ACRE If we appraise the home garden at Its actual worth we shall find that an acre of good land well cared for will supply our table with just about one half the food the family consumes, and this food will cost far less than ~ : " "X RED BAND \ ?, NEW YORK,USA. ^*wmL0^] )ther Why's jut , ?CU?| ill! || Sweet Butter, ength.

"Yas.sah.I shore is?if my wife's back gits better," was the answer; and some of our white farmers also act on the theory that the right answer was given in the following dialogue :Question: "What is the right size for a garden?" i Answer: "All that your wife can i cultivate." : Let it be said in the outset, therefore, that none of us are going to "get i half a living from one acre" if we i leave the wife to do all the garden i work. Nor are we going to do so if we just get "garden fever" about apple-blooming time and get over it the next month. The trouble with most of us is s that we donot have a definite garden j program. We are too spasmodic in ] our garden operations. When the , sun is bright and the air warm in ] early spring we rush into the garden and do a lot of really worth while work. Then we may not return to the < garden until a hard fight is required to subdue the weeds and until Insects have grown fat and multiplied into countless numbers and diseases are beyond control . That way will not give us success?The Progressive Farmer. NOTICE OF SALE. Under and by virtue of- the power of sale contained in that certain I mortgage deed executed by W. L.!

Apply fresh wood ashes to this spot, get it in good seed bed condition, and then select one of the following: English ivy, periwinkle, lily of ornamental hardy sedges.?C. L. Newman, in The Progressive Farmer. On our farm last year we made several mistakes. One of them was made when we failed to have a good garden with plenty of vegetables for our own home use throughout the season. N We were mistaken again when we kept up our hogs in a comparatively dry lot, feeding them dry corn, thinking that they would "get through" the summer without an abundance of natural green feed and plenty of clear water to drink.?W. D. W., In The Progressive Farmer. In the spring I started to cut my grain with machinery that was worn and would constantly break, causing me extra expense and loss of time, if I had bought a new peice of machinery I would have saved time and money.?Jas.

FERTILIZER DOES NOT CHANGE QUALITY OF MELONS Does nitrate of soda or sulhate of immonia used as a fertilizer on water melons cause them to have white leart or to ripen unevenly and proluce a poor quality mielon?

I ? < < ?? N. I JRAXr There is a general opinion in many sections that such is the case, but t Georgia Experiment Station, have proved this to be untrue. White heart or a white streak in the heart of f the melon is due to adverse weather conditions and to the variety. Some varieties naturally produce poorer quality melons than others. It is not advisable to use excessive quantities of quickly available nitrogenous fertilizer on watermelon?, be- t cause abnormally rapid growth Is not desirable. But these fertilizers should ? 0 not be changed with decreasing the quality of the melon.?L. A. Niven, j in The Progressive Farmer. t CARE OF HENS WITH CHICKS 1 I Furnish roomy, dry, well ventilated r coop where hen and chicks can be g confined for ' first tew days. Coop n should be so constructed that rata g cats, etc., cannot get in at night. Chicks should be confined for three d days until well rested and strong en- jj ough to range. Range should be small ^ jfor a week or 10 days. Feed spar- n ingly and often after chicks are two I days old. Chicks should be dusted g ! with louse powder if hen has lice. ] Raby chicks should have all the ? milk they will consume. Finely t( J ground oyster shell should be avail- j I able from the start. Yellow corn is a preferable to white corn for chickens of all ages. This Is especially true j of baby chicks. CAUSES OF LOW FERTILITY AND POOR HATCHES 1. Weak breeders. ^ 2. Over-fat breeders, caused by lack ? a of exercise and too much corn. g 3. Lack or green feed. q 4. Forced feeding for egg pnoduc- n Hon. a y 5. Immature breeders. 6.

WHAT ABOUT THE SURPLUS? ~u The best way to deal with a surplus i to prevent It. This cannot be done rholy. It can be done to a great exent. Co-operative companies can pread sales over a whole year instead f selling too early. This takes care f the seasonal surplus. Freight adustments may be of great help In aklng care of local or erglonal suriluses. Beyond these there are suriluses of many of the leading com nodities which, so far as can be een, must be sold in tthe world's iarket.8 However, organized selling hould be able to sell at the most dvantageous times and place, and so o much better than unorganized seling can do. Finally, the inequality rought about by high tariffs on lanurfactured goods, protection to ibor through Immigration laws, hould be recognized as contrary to tie best Interests of agriculture. It rould seem that the! time had come 0 look into the tariff schedules a new 1 order tp do Justice to all parties? nd the farmer is one of those parties. -B. H. Hibbard, in The Progressive 'armer.

BARNUM SAID IT Barnum said, "The American people like to be humbugged." It has also~ came f&" the notice of several health departments that there are men traveling around through the country claiming to be specialists on diseaes of the eye, usually claiming to be professors in some medical college. They pretend to find some trouble with your eyes, or if there is some real trouble, they claim to be able to cure it, charging fabulous prices for medicine or glasses. They then depart and never come back. The patient is no better and often / worse. ' Some time ago I saw a wagon filled with packages of medicine called "home medicine." The vendors were selling a year's supply of medicine for $10; various concoctions recommended to icure almost every disease that flesh is heir to. The people who bought medicine would use it something like this:A child would be taken sick with sore throat?they would look through ' their supply and find one recommended for sore throat. The child would probably get worse until after a day or so the family would find that 'the remedy was doing no good, then they would send for the doctor, and he would find that it was & case of diphtheira, and too late to A) any good. I saw a circular a few days ago, boasting a cure for tuberculosis, diphtheria, asthma, colds, pneumonia and skin diseases?all cured by one kind of medicine at $5 for enough to last for 60 days. Of course, they never expected anyone to get but one bottle. , f The circular stated that if the medic- ' ine did not cure therftseases mentioned, you had something else.' ? Stick to your family doctor; get his advice about medical matters.? Dr. Register in The^r Progressive Farmer.
