Disinfect Seed
Potato Pieces
Did Standard Treatments
With Bichloride of Mer
cury Still Best.
In disinfecting potato seed pieces
for the control of disease, the old
standard treatments with bichloride of
mercury or formaldehyde still prove
best.
Test New Mixture.
This statement is made by G. W.
Fant, extension plant disease special
ist at the North Carolina State col
lege, who has been testing some of
:he new commercial mixtures placed
an the market recently. Mr. Fijnt
states that these new mixtures are
still in the experimental stage. They
have not yet been developed to where
they are perfectly safe. Several
growers have had poor stands of po
tatoes resulting from the use of the
mixtures. The new materials require
a shorter time for treating the seed
pieces and this is important at plant
ing season, but if any of the material
is allowed to collect on a seed piece
in the form of a paste, as so often
happens, injury will result.
In tests made by the county agents
of Wayne and Pamlico counties, Mr.
Fant found that injury to germina
tion of tlie seed pieces was especially
pronounced if any paste was allowed
to collect. The new materials must
be kept in suspension by constant
stirring or a poor stand of potatoes
will result. Mr. Fant made several
photographs which showed a poor
stand where potatoes were treated
with the new materials as compared
to the old, standard treatments with
bichloride of mercury or formaldehyde.
Treatment Necessary.
In spite of this, however, .Mr. Fant
finds that potato growers realize that
seed treatment is necessary if disease
is not to be introduced into the soil.
More attention is now being given to
sucli seed treatment and better po
tatoes are being grown as a result.
For the time being, however, growers
had best use the old, time-tried disin
fectants and leave the new mixtures
alone until they have developed fur
ther. The saving in time may be off
set by the loss in stand of crop.
Grit Quite Necessary
to Hens When Confined
Grit seems necessary to hens when
they are confined, but the supply is
neglected in some flocks, and it must
greatly reduce their powers of grind
ing feed like whole corn. We have
been using a commercial mineral grit
with good results, says a writer in an
exchange. It contains 70 per cent car
bonate of lime and 22 per cent tri
calcium phosphate. This grit seems to
have good grinding powers, and sup
plies some phosphorus for the making
of eggs. It also seems to help in pro
ducing eggs of a good shell texture,
and there are practically no soft
shelled eggs laid, at least they are not
found. But we use oyster shells along
with the mineral grit, and the com
bination seems all right. I don’t know
which material deserves the most
credit for the good shell texture on
the big Leghorn eggs.
Roughage Mills Favored
for Cutting Bulky Feed
The popularity of roughage mills
for cutting up corn stalks, straw, hay
and other coarse feeds for live stock
is indicated by their use on 35 ad
joining farms near State Center, lowa.
On each of the 35 live stock farms is
a roughage mill and no farm within
this huge block is without one.
These 35 lowa farm operators and
many others find that by chopping it
up with a roughage mill they can save
much feed that would ordinarily be
wasted. Feeds are made more palat
able in this way for all classes of
live stock, including hay for poultry.
Roughage may also be chopped by
means of recutting attachments for
ensilage cutters.

In a great many localities there are
many neople who want to build n
home, but do not care to or have not
enough money to make a large in

money intt the home and less into the
real estate on which it sils.

five-room home. It is a most attrac

with plantings such as shown in the

Finish of Woodwork
Is Job for Expert
As one correspondent writes: “It’s
almost impossible to make my rooms
artistic because of tbe woodwork. In
every decorative scheme I’ve tried, tlie
woodwork stands out like a sore thumb
What would you advise?”
Evidently this home decorator fails
to appreciate the adaptability of wood
work. If it doesn't match —change its
color. If, for instance, the color
scheme is bright and gay, make the
woodwork harmonize. And follow tlie
same rule with a dark decorative
scheme. There is nothing easier.
On soft woods and where tlie
scheme calls for a color in the wood
work, paint or enamel will give the
desired finish. Nowadays, however,
enamels are used more frequently than
paint. Enamels come in such lovely
colors that they can be mixed safely
to secure a variety of tints and shades.
Today woodwork in the same neu
tral. tone as the background of the
walls is decidedly the vogue. Some
times it is a little lighter, sometimes
a little darker. But don’t let tlie
woodwork unduly assert itself.
Real hardwood finished in its nat
ural color always will be in style; al
though often it is desirable to stain
the wood so as to preserve the grain
and at the same time change tlie color
tone. This is not a difficult job. But
be sure that good varnish or varnish
stains are used. The finish should be
waterproof—one that can be cleaned
without harming its luster or dura
bility.
Woodwork and its part in the dec
orative scheme is one of tlie problems
over which many home decorators
want expert advice.
Single-Paneled Door
The simple single-paneled door lends
itself more readily to different styles

The roof and wall treatment of this

Under the house is a basement also

frame construction set on a concrete
foundation, giving the basement con
crete walls.
Various Woods Used
for Floor Purposes
Both hard and soft woods are used
for floors. Tlie sofe wood, unless it
is edge grain, does not stand up un
der traffic. Edge grain flooring is
quarter-sawed so that the annual
rings run clear through the board
and make parallel lines along its face.
There are thus no splinters to be
kicked up. In a flat-sawed board the
annual rings come to the surface of
the plank in layer upon layer of flake
like forms. They present at this sur
face thin edges which splinter very
readily.
Although fiat-sawed soft woods will
not stand direct wearing, the edge
grain material is very durable indeed.
Hard woods may, on the other hand,
he of edge grain or flat grain. Their
temper is hard enough so that they
do not readily splinter. Tlie quarter
sawed hard woods are expensive and
are therefore not commonly em
ployed.
The soft woods most used as floor
ing are pine and fir. Pine for inside
work and fir for porch floors and the
like. Redwood, cypress and spruce
are also used for outside work.
Tlie hard woods most commonly
used for flooring are oak, maple, birch
and beech. Other hard weyds are oc
casionally used.
Pecky Wood Wins Favor
for Interior Trimmings
Antique hunters have company in
home builders who seek peck wood for
trimmings.
Pecky cedar or cypress is a grade
of lumber in which the wood looks
decayed because of numerous holes
filled with brown powder. This ap
pearance is deceptive, for sueli wood
is exceptional in its power to resist
decay. After the logs are sawed into
lumber the character of the wood
does not change.
The holes extend longitudinally,
varying in width from one-quarter to
three-quarters of an inch, and often
are several inches long. Architects
are using such lumber as interior
trimming. When it is tinted and var
nished tlie effect is striking, accord
ing to those who have inspected the
finished product. What causes tlie
wood to become pecky Is not known.
Camera Malting
One hundred and twenty-two man
ufacturing plants were engaged In
3027 in turning out $90,827,737 in cam
eras, camera parts, accessories and
supplies in the United States. This
was an increase of 15 per cent over

Drop in Meat Eating
The average American ate about 5
pounds less meat last year than lie
did the year before, and 8 pounds less
than in 1926, n summary prepared by
t lie Department of Commerce indicates.
There lias been a steady decline in
tlie amount of beef and veal con
sumed, While pork has climbed but
insufficiently to balance tlie loss in
beef products. Lamb and mutton have
held about even. Beef consumption
lias dropped from a per capita figure
of 03.6 pounds In 1920 to 51.7 in 1928.
while pork has risen from 65.7 to 73.9.
Lamb and mutton have stood at ap

Gladly Offered Life
to Save Commander’s
A young suilornmn, Reuben James,
after whom a United States destroyer
is named, saved tlie life of Stephen
Decatur, widely known naval officer.
The incident occurred in a gunboat
action in the war with the pirates of
Tripoli. During tlie encounter young
Reuben James stuck close to his com
mander’s side, warding off tlie attacks
made on Decatur from behind. When,
his right arm was disabled by scim
itar cuts be shifted his cutlass to tlier
left and fought on. Soon this nnr
was useless, too, and the weapon
dropped from his hand. At that mo
ment he saw a pirate lift his scimitar
to strike Decatur’s head as lie lay on
the deck locked in a death struggle
with the Tripolitan captain. As botlr
Reuben James’ arms were useless, lie
deliberately put bis own head in tbe
way and caught the stroke aimed for
Decatur. It was a mighty blow but
the hard-headed sailor was back at
liis post in three weeks and lived te
a rijie old age.
