It centers about a beautiful Georgian-Colonial mansion house, with stately white pillars rising the two stories of Its front eleva tion. Fifteen carloads of Florida plant life create a sub-tropical at mosphere, and its arbored walks, citrus trees with fruit hanging from their branches, palms, mur als. sculptured dioramas and ?pectoramas, a staff of soft-spok en guides and Negro servants convey an accurate Impression of the Southern playground of the Nation.

Timely Farm Questions Answered at State College QUESTION: What is a full | ration for a dairy cow? ] ANSWER: A full ration means feeding to each cow enough feed to produce the greatest amount of milk economically. To deter mine the proper amount of grain, give the animal all the roughage, including hay and silage she will eat. Then weigh the grain ra tion being fed at that time to gether with the milk produced. Gradually increase the grain ra tion and check the production. If there is an increase in milk pro duction up to IS poundsjM grain i it shows that the animalwas not getting 'enough and the increased feed should be continued. On the other hand, if the increase is not satisfactory, then the grain feed should be reduced to the original amount. QUESTION: How should I pre pare my soil for seeding crimson clover on a tobacco field? | ANSWER: All stalks should he | cut and the land or ridges level-; led with a disc harrow. Be sure that the soil is inoculated for growing the crop. If not already I inoculated, bacteria should be I supplied before the crop is seed-| j ed. This may be done by mixing, j the seed with from two to three hundred pounds of soil from a I field known to be inoculated or by the use of a good commercial ! culture. If the commercial cul-i ture is used follow the directions 'carefully. Where soil from an-| I other field is used the seed should j be sown with a grain drill. QUESTION: When should the grain ration be fed to the poul try flock? ANSWER: Higher egg produc | tion is secured by feeding only a small amount of grain in thej morning and the remainder at| night. The morning feed should, be in clean litter about four to six inches deep. There is a growing tendency among poultrymen to make the afternoon feeding* in troughs and this is a good prac-j tice, especially where infectious!, i WE FURNISH YOUR HOME Your Business, Your Anything In Hardware and Furniture At Prices Unusually Low Bicycles Streamlined Roadmaster $28.50 ELECTRIC LIGHT BULBS Frosted Ac Colored Cast Iron COOK STOVES $8.75 3 Pc.
