Growing Pickles
Very Profitable
Offers Opportunity for Sum
mer Work by School
Boys and Girls
(Prepared by the United States Department
ot Agriculture.)
About three billion cucumber pick
les tickle the American palate each
year. Consumers buy them although
the pickles are not high In food value,
but serve primarily as an appetizer
and relish with other foods. Growing
cucumbers for sale to pickle manu
facturers Is a profitable farm spe
cialty In certain regions where soil
and climatic conditions are favorable
and where the fields are within rea
sonable distance of a salting station.
Summer Work for 8tudents.
Cucumber growing for pickling
often offers opportunity for profit
able summer work by boys and girls.
Most of the pickles are grown In
small fields of one or two acres be
cause they demand many hours of at
tention In the marketing season, and
labor Is not often available for large
plantings. The work of gathering the
cucumbers demands patience more
than strength.
Michigan ordinarily supplies about
one-third of the pickles with Wiscon
sin In second place. Indiana, Minne
sota, Colorado, and California are of
Importance In the Industry.
Careful preparation of the soil, fer
tilization, planting, thinning, cultiva
tion and harvesting and handling are
the principal operations. Spraying
and dusting for control of Insects and
diseases are necessary In many dis
tricts. Cnreful harvesting Includes re
moval of the small cucumbers when
they are at the size desired by the
manufacturer, and before they devel
op enough to deplete the vitality of
the vines. Picking the cucumbers
while immature results In heavy bear
ing and a long harvest season.
Practical Advice.
In "Growing Cucumbers for Pick
ling," Just published by the United
States Department of Agriculture, as
Fanners' Bulletin 7620-F, J. H. Beat
tie of the bureau of plant industry
gives simple and practical advice for
growing the crop. Other bulletins pub
lished previously give information on
cucumber growing for table and slic
ing cucumbers and on cucumber cul
ture In greenhouses. "Cucumbers for
pickling occupy approximately 75,000
acres each season in the United
States," says Mr. Beattie, "and the
yield has a value to the growers of
about $3,000,000 annually. Successful
growers often obtain a gross return
of $190 to $200 an acre. This is a
cash crop which Is well worth atten
tion where it can be grown and
handled."
Those interested may obtain a copy
of Farmers' Bulletin 1620-F, by writ
ing to the Office of Information, De
partment of Agriculture, Washing
ton, D. C.
Beware of Coccidiosis,
Dread Chicken Disease
"Too much emphasis cannot be laid
on sanitary measures for the preven
tion of coccidiosis in chickens," said
Dr. J. F. Bullard, Purdue university,
recently In speaking to a group of
poultrymen in Indiana. "This Is a
common disease and Is the cause of
heavy losses in chicks from two to
fifteen weeks of age.
"The coccidiura, which Is the cause
of the disease. Is passed in large num
bers in the droppings. For a time aft
er the organisms are passed out they
do not infect the chicks so It Is obvi
ous that if the houses, lots and feed
ers are kept clean, and on lots that
have not been used for chicks before,
the disease can be controlled.
"Old birds and young chicks should
be kept apart, which Is an important
part of the sanitation program."

and the brick seems to be supporting
pillars.
While this home has the appearance
of a Dutch colonial, It will be noticed
by the floor plan that It Is slightly
different. At the front are the living
and dining rooms, but the central hall,
which marks the colonial design, 1?
absent. The house contains five rooms
and a large sun parlor with a balcony
over the latter. Its dimensions are 26

The nse of shrubbery and flowers
around the foundation of the house;
the vines which are trained up the

the flower boxes which edge the bal

a very homey and pretty appearance.
Tile Roof Provides
Protection From Fire
When the tire alarm awakes you at
midnight on a windy night, do you
calmy turn over and go to sleep again,
or does the dread of fire, felt by all
those who sleep in inflammable build
ings, arouse you?
Even if the fire may be far awny,
you are not at ease, not knowing what
progress the fire Is making?whether
victory awards the fire fighters or
i whether the burning brands borne by
the wind are flying toward your roof.
The fear of fire is a dreadful thing.
Fire, which is a good servant but a
hard master, exacts Its heavy toll
year by year from those who fail to
provide against its hazards. The an
nual loss in the United States is eight
times as great as in England per thou
sand houses, it is said. Americans do
not Insist on fireproof materials for
' roofs and walls of homes like the Eng
lish.
The roof is the most vulnerable
point Wood shingles are responsible
for an unbelievable amount of fires.
I Often they are like tinder. Flying
| sparks from chimneys, from passing
' trains or nearby bonfires will often set
an old, Inflammable roof ablaze, and
when such a fire Is started it gets un
der headway quickly and Is hard to
stop.
The wind will lift firebrands of blaz
ing shingles more than half a mile
around. If they fall on a burnable
roof, another fire Is likely to be
started.
l.arge conflagrations, such as the
Chicago fire, the San Francisco fire
and the Salem (Mass.) fire were spread
In this manner.
A fire loss amounting to more than
a million dollars annually Is saved by
many of the large cities In the United
States that refuse to allow a combus
tible roof within their corporations.
Modern conditions and modern pro
duction methods have made it pos
sible to have a permanent fireproof
roof over a house of five or six rooms
at about $2f>0 more than the. cost of
perishable roofs. A home owner can,
for an Investment of an addition 2 or
8 per cent, secure a roof that Is not
only fire resisting but permanent as
well as beautiful.
New Drain Plug for Tub
Fits Old Chain Hole
Old lavatories and bathtubs with
rubber plugs and chains may be mod
j emized with a new type of metal
drain control that fits any lavatory or
hath. The water seal Is made by a
metal stopper which seats firmly Into
, the body of the drain?there Is noth
ing to wear or get out of working or
| der. The units are made so that the,
beads may be obtained with nickel or
chromium.
Floor Is Foundation
of Rooms in the House
What color or design to select when
purchasing a rug or carpet Is a prob
lem that bothers many people. How
ever, If we remember that. Just as the
floor Is the foundation of the room,
the floor covering Bhould keep that
feeling In relation to the other fur
nishings, points out Harriet W. Allard
in the Household Magazine, the prob
lem will seem much less difficult.
This authority on homemaktng ad
vises a darker tone of color for rugs
than for walls and ceilings, inasmuch
as this carries out the idea of a foun
dation. However, she says, it is not
necessary to confine one's choice to
plain colors in somber shades, al
though carpets and rugs, in one color,
or with a center of one color and bor
der of another, have been, and still
are, popular. They give an appearance ,
of a firm, sturdy foundation.
Life and animation can be added to
a room with a plain carpet by using
colorful drapes and wall coverings. If
the value of the color is comparatively
darker than the side walls, there may
be a deviation from a perfectly plain
covering. Designs in keeping with
those of other furnishings build char
acter and add strength to a room. A
one-color carpet is lifted successfully
from the plain class by having a part
of the pile cut to form a pattern. The
effect of light, as it is reflected across
the cut and uncut pile, gives a varia
tion which is delightful. This is called
the frieze.weave.
The floor covering with a number
of colors in the design may be the
basis for the color scheme of the ropm.
It can act in the same capacity that
a picture, fabric hanging or a piece
of pottery does when the colors in
their decorations are repeated In the
other furnishings. If the pattern is in
harmonious and satisfying colors. It
becomes a safe guide to follow in se
lecting wall coverings, draperies, fur
niture and bric-a-brac.
Floor Should Be of
Seasoned Lumber Only
Cracks In a new well-laid floor are
the result of a change In moisture
content within the wood itself.
This change Is due to improper pre
liminary seasoning; improper storlgo
conditions at the mill or retail yard;
delivery of the flooring during wet
weather or before the masonry or
plaster walls are dry; or It may be
due to the absorption of moisture
from the air within the building either
before of after the flooring is laid.
The use of the heating plant may
be advisable, says the United States
forest service, to maintain a tempera
ture that will prevent excessive hu
midity In the building from the time
the flooring Is delivered until the
house Is occupied.

Pipe-Organ to Sound
in Famous Tabernacle
One wonders what Spurgeon would
have thought of the new organ which
Is to be brought Into use at the Met
ropolitan tabernacle, writes "Looker
On" In the London Dally Chronicle.
The great preacher shared the old
Scottish dislike of "a kist 'o whis
tles," and In his time would permit
no musical Instrument of any kind
In the tabernacle services, all the
singing being led by a precentor, who
announced the hymns and sang
through the first line to give the con
gregation a start. In recent years
an American organ has been used,
but the famous church In Newlngton
Butts hns had to wait until now for
Its first pipe-organ. It should be add
ed that, despite?or because of??
"the Inck of instrumental aid, the con
gregational singing at the tabernacle
has always been notably good.
OLD DOCTOR'S IDEA
IS BIG HELP TO
ELDERLY PEOPLE
??*/ J J
In 1885, old Dr. Caldwell made a
discovery for which elderly people
the world over praise him today 1
Years of practice convinced him
that many people were endanger
ing their health by a careless
choice of laxatives. So he began a
search for a harmless prescription
which would be thoroughly effec
tive, yet would neither gripe nor
form any habit. At last he found it.
Over and over he wrote it, when
he found people bilious, headachy,
out of sorts, weak or feverish; with
coated tongue, bad hreatb, no appe
tite or energy. It relieved the most
obstinate cases, and yet was gentle
with women, children and elderly
people.
Today the same famous, effective
prescription, known as Dr. Cald
well's Syrup Pepsin, is the world's
most popular laxative. It may be
obtained from any drugstore.
Victory for Eagles
After two years of warfare against
a representative of Uncle Sam two
bald eagles stand victorious with Un
cle Sam's agent in full retreat. The
latter, a telegraph operator, has been
stationed atop, a forty-foot pole to
register the shots fired from the
naval station at Dahlgren, Va. Upon
this perch the eagles built their nest
and a conflict has been raging for
possession, with the operator forbid
den from shooting the birds under a
penalty of a $50 fine. So he retreat
ed to n new pole, conceding victory
to the eagles.

faloes were liberated more than a
year ago at Jarvis creek in Alaska,
and while they have been carefully
watched they have been given no
special care, except an occasional ra

that the animals were thriving in the
