THE NEIGHBOR HOOD CORNER

* DEPARTMENT OF FARM WELFARE CONDUCTED BY COAGENT LEAMING. Seed Corn Time. It is very unlikely that any farmer will permit the month of September to pass without selecting and thoroughly drying an ample supply of seed corn to plant his next years crop. With the wretched conditions of last spring still fresh in mind, the matter is almost certain to have early consideration. There are a few things, however, that deserve mention in connection with the seed corn situation. In many cases last spring type ana adaptability had to be sacrificed to germination and consequently much of the corn produced this season is little better than “scrublow in yielding power. . The farmer who had to plant imported seed last spring can well afford to arrange with his neighbors for a supply of native, well bred seed. Farmers who are fortunate enough to have a crop from home-grown seed will find it profitable as well as neighborly to lay in a supply large enough to meet the needs of the neighborhood. Unless precautions are taken the evils of the seed shortage of last spring will be apparent for years to come, but with a little foresight at this time they may be turned into a matter of history. Clean Seed for a Big Crop. “Can you tell me how to treat my seed wheat for stinkink smut?” is a daily question. In order to throw light on it the following directions are printed: “Mix one pint of formaldehyde with one pint of water and use in small hand sprayer. Atomizer sprayers can be purchased for 50 to 75 cents. Spray the solution on grain as this is being shoveled over, holding the sprayer close to grain and taking care that the mist is well distributed. One stroke of the sprayer gives enough mist for each shovelful of grain. One quart of solution will treat 50 bushels. When all the grain is trea'ted, shovel into a pile, carefully cover for five hours as directed under the wet method. The grain may be sown immediately after the treatment or allowed to air thoroughly and stored in disinfected sacks or bins until needed.” Plant Lice Causing Losse*. Green plant lice have made their appearance at several points in the county and are causing serious damage to the more leafy crops, such as tomatoes, cucumbers and turnips. The lice attach themselves to the underside of the leaves and multiply with extreme rapidity, sucking the juices from the plants so that they are often destroyed within a day or so. , , Plant lice may be destroyed by spraying with nicotine sulphate preparations, which may be obtained at any drug store. As this is a contact poison the spray must be actually applied to the insectc to kill them. The operation is usually performed by two persons, one turning over the plants, exposing the lice, and the other applying the spray. It is suggested that owners of truck crops be on the watch for these invaders and destroy them immediately upon appearance. Farmers’ Club Meeting.

The following program will be given: Music Paper ...-. Mrs. Paul Wood Music Mrs. W. I. Spitler Wheat production F. Thompson Reading Esther Krusse Below are a few recipes for the canning of fowls. The farm housewife can have chicken for city friends in “short order” when canned. Roast Fowl —Chicken, turkey, goose, guinea dr duck. —-Clean, wash and wipe dry. Put lard and butter in roasting pan, place in oven, and when hot lay in fowl. Keep turning until seared‘on all sides. Season with salt and pepper, pour half cup water. Let roast until browned and half done. Remove from oven, cut fowl into pieces, pack in can. Skim excess fat from gravy and pour gravy over meat in cans until % inch from top (if not enough gravy add boiling water). Proceed as for cold pack canning process 3% hours. (Meat cah be cut from bones before packing into cans if desired. Soup.—Bone of the fowl with the adhering meat can be put over in water, simmered for several -hours until bones are exhausted for soup

stock. Cook down until very strong, straine dand ponjred hot into cans to % inch of top. Partly seal and process for three hours. Fried chicken (young or fowls). — Prepare as for frying. Sear in-hot grease, sprinkle with gait and .pepper. Or can be rolled into flour or crumbs mixed with salt and .pepper. It can be canned in several ways, either with qr without liquid. When canned Without liquid or gravy, process four hours. With liquid process ,3% hours. Fricasseed Chicken. —Prepare the chicken in usual manner and cut in pieces. Place into kettle with enough water to cover. Add some parlsey, celery, thyme, bay leaf, salt, pepper. Boil 15 minutes.* Add several small onions and one good sized potato, cut into small pieces. Cook % hour. Remove chicken and herbs, remove chicken from bones and return it to the kettle. Let this come to a boil, pack into cans to % inch of top. Process 3% hours. When serving, empty contents into stew pan, heat, add a little flour for thickening. Beaten yolks of an egg and a little butter may be added. Canning of Meat*. The home canning of fruits and vegetables has become very common, and it is natural that the next step should be home canning of meats. With a supply of meats the farm housewife can prepare and serve a palatable meal on short notice. It also makes possible a more varied diet, lessening dependence upon cured, salted or smoked meat.
