Marketing Poultry Product.

FOOT poultry prOuucts are seloOm
marketed with profit. II costs just as
much to express a certain number of
stale eggs as II does fresh ones. The
charges are Just as great on barrel
Of inferior fowls as on the quality that
will take the top OF the market Many
Of the other expenses OF transport are
the same for poor as for god quail
ity. This fact must not be lost sight
of In the conduct of poultry raising
operations. The quantity OF flrstclass
products ON the market Is now greater
than ever before. and the people that
want only good poultry and eggs are
having less trouble than ever before to
get them. The immediate result is
that the poor stun sells at a still lower
price In the market, and its tendency
Is downward. The shippers OF inferior
products frequently complain that the
money received for their coDsignments
Is not enough to pay cost of producing
and selling. to say nothing of profits
This condition is likely To be intensi-
fed as skill in poultry culture in.
creases. In the marketing Of poultry.
u is worth the while OF the seller to
thoroughly understand the practices OF
some OF the dealers In poultry. Most
OF these will make honest returns
when they are selling on commission.
but there are so. he that do not. In
quite number Of instances com.
mission men have been caught
In what they call averaging
up" That Is they add to-
gether all they have received on all
the consignments and divide the re.
ceipts according TO the quantity sold.
Thus, IL Mr.. Jay. the commission man.
sells 100 pounds OF Smiths turkeys
for $1,000 and 100 pounds OF Browns
turkeys for $500. he makes return
Of $500 to each man. BY this practice,
Mr.. Brown gets $500 that belongs to
Mr.. Smith, and the latter gentleman
gets no pay whatever for sending to
market product very superior to that
sent by Mr.. Brown. The excuse of the
commission man for this practice is
that II prevents kicking" as Mr..
Smith does not know that he has been
robbed, and Mr. Brown is well pleased
at the amount received for his very or.
dinary product. II is. however, a prac.
tice that is essentially detrimental TO
the business Of the intelligent poultry.
man ambitious to put on the market
products that will entitle him to more
than the ordinary remuneration.

Labels on Food Products,

A report from Washington says that
the Department Of Agriculture is TAX.
ing steps to enforce the law relative
to the sale OF misbranded articles of
food when they are sent from one state
to another The law provides that in
each case where a conviction is OBJ
tanned for the violation of this law the
culprit shall be fined not less than
$500 nor more than $1,000 for each
offense. The abuse Of labels has been
very great and widespread. Imported
sardines" come from factories on the
coast Of Maine; imported French
wines" never saw France. New
York full cream cheese" is made In
the west from partly skinned milk.
and SO on. Even Elgin butter is made
In nearly all parts Of the North. How
effectively the law can be enforced
we have yet to see; and once enforced
we do not know that II will stop the
fraud in this particular. II will be
perfectly easy for every wholesaler to
keep a set OF stencils and brand the
food articles as wanted. This method
OF evading the law h.3 been prac.
ticed for generations. Many grocery.
men now keep numerous stencils for
their -four barrel heads. and mari;
them as their customers are likely to
desire. This Is common practice In
the case Of great number OF foods,
especially such articles Of food as corn
starch.

Dairy at Illinois State Fair.

The Illinois state fair dairy exhibit
is to have a building OF its own. This
Is very gratifying to the dairymen OF
the state. who have felt for some years
that Illinois was behind some OF her
sister states In this matter. The build.
ing is to be 100 feet long and GO feet
wide. II will be erected on the spot
formerly occupied by the Woman's
Building. which was burned two years
ago. The material used is to consist
of brick. with stone for trimmings.
According to the architectural prom.
Use, the building Is to be one of the
most artistic on the grounds. The
structure Is to be 22 feet high,
with only main floor. In the
middle Of this will be the OF.
fees. and around will be ranged
the exhibit. A working dairy is to
occupy part Of the space and will be
In operation for a short period every
day during the continuance OF the
fair.

The ability TO write shorthand Is
coming to be more and more an abso-
Lutte and necessary clerical qualitica-
ton for young men and women
In every station OF life. The
very nature OF the work places
them In close confidential busi-
ness relations with Merchants, FL
nanciers. Capitalists and Business Peo-
pie generally. In multitude OF cases,
Shorthand has proved the stepping
stone to very lucrative and desirable
positions. A tood Stenographer need
never want employment In Kansas
City, Missouri, as every Business House
employs one or more. and the demand
for Graduates OF Spalding's CONNER

supply. The salaries OF Stenographers
range from $40 to $50 per month and
when thoroughly experienced from sou
per month upward. The Student who
desires to take up the Study OF Short
hand should choose Standard System
which. b. the success OF Its writer's,
has proved TO be capable OF reaching
the highest point In speed and accur'
acy. To show the simplicity OF our

Dairy cattle constitute the foundation
and all-important factor Of the indus

own in America; we have adopted
those originated in and brought from
other countries. Even our native"
or common" stock or scrubs" are
but mongrels of the breeds Of another

OF this country to the breeders Of Ayr.

Friesians and Jerseys in their native
lands. These are the four races Of
cattle upon which mainly rest the
present and future prosperity and
progress ol dairylng In America. Yet,
we must not forget to note the blood
OF the good old milking strains of
Shorthorns as an excellent foundation
upon which to build up profitable dairy
herds. II Is needless To enlarge upon
the good qualities and characteristics
OF these distinctively dairy breeds. but
II Is worth noting that all Of them
have improved upon our hands. II
may not be that the average quality OF
any OF these breeds as they now exist

Grooming the Herd.

After the cattle have had their hay
in the morning they are cleaned up for
the day. We use good stiff root brushes
for the purpose and the curry comb is
brought into requisitlon when neces
sary. The cows enjoy this brushing
and stand perfectly still, frequently
stopping their eating during the opera
ton. Some authorities claim that brush
Ing stimulates the circulation. thereby
increasing the milk flow. Whether or
not this is so, do not know. That a
clean row Of cows is more attractive
and pleasing to the eye. there Is no
doubt. Besides this. can you tell me

them will vouch for what ! say, and
II you do not believe II you take a

white and juicy and OF fine flavor.
The young mature early and that OF
course makes them very profitable
for the farmer or broiler plant, and
they find ready sale. especially among
people who know what they are. They
do not lay as many eggs as some
breeds, but II they were sold by
weight they would not be far behind
the best. as their eggs are large and
they are good winter layers. They
are hardy and will stand confinement
well and do not need such high
fence as most other breeds. owing to
their weight. They are very tame.

Cow Peas and Sow Beans,

Many farmers In Illinois, especially
In the central and northern sections
OF the state are not familiar with the
COW pea and soy bean. In some parts
OF southern Illinois COW peas are
grown extensively, and where the
value OF this crop Is known II consti.
tutes one OF the chief forage crops.
Soy beans are Of more recent intro.
duction. and this crop Is not so well
known as COW peas. In some cases
farmers have given one or both of
these crops trial. but through the
use OF varieties not adapted to their
climate, unsatisfactory results have
been obtained, and consequently they
have pronounced these plants un.
suited to Illinois conditions. Others
have been more successful In their
growth. and find them worthy OF a
prominent place In the rotation. As n
matter OF fact, both crops have been
grown In this state long enough and
TO such an extent that they have
passed beyond the purely experiment
al stage. and In places they are al
ready considered as important factors
In Illinois agriculture.
The COW pea 10 a native OF south
eastern China, and the soy bean OF
Japan. Being semitropical In origin.
both plants are naturally best suited
TO q warm climate, and the introduc.
tion and cultivation C3 the COW pea
In America has been largely limited
TO the South. although In recent years
certain varieties have become 80 &C.

farther north since its introduction,
consequently there 10 no question a.
