Packages for Fruit.

From FarmcrE' Review: The
question Of relative dcEirability OF
barrels and buahci boxes. or relative
cost OF tho two. for the shipment OF
apples and pears. depends very much
whether tho handler Is catering to the
Wholesale or retail trade. II the lat.
ter then the box is the most desirable
package. Its contents is moro nearly
what family will need at one time:
is moro easily and chcaply conveyed
TO the consumers home than n barrel
A barrel holds more than an average
family can consume and n part must
need SO TO decay. II boxes arc bought
one can bo taken from cold storage
at time as needed. Tho temperature
OF the home cellar is too warm for
tho storing of fruit. When buying
Ia smaller quantities than barrel the
tnstes OF different members of the
family can be consulted and several
varieties kept on hand which would
not be practical II whole barrel had
to be bought for each member OF
tho family.
Then again the smaller the guam.
tity Of fruit bought. the relatively
higher the price paid. On the other
hand IL tho grower or packer Is sup.
plying the wholesale trade the barrel
is for some reasons the best. The cost
OF three.bushel barrel. would be
considerably less than three.bushe el
boxes. While the freight II shipped
in car lots OF 10000 pounds, would OF
course be the same II actually weighed
into the car. the carriage would be
greatly in favor of the barrel. As the
carriage, especially If done in small
lots. would be as much on a bushel
box as on three bushel barrel The
contents of barrel are safer from
accident and theft than a box.-T. Z.

Phosphate Rock and 6arnyard

The Ohio station has Just completed
some experiments along the limo OF
utilizing barnyard manure to the
greatest possible extent. Opca yard
and stall manure were used on corn.
oats. wheat. clover and timothy. The
manure from the open yard had been
allowed to undergo the conditions that
exist on mos, Ohio farms. 1t was
dried by the wind. leachcd by the rain
and dried by the sun. This means
losses to the fertility originally IA 1t.
In n second test manure was also
taken from open yards. but II had
previously been mixed with giound
acid phosphate rock to assist 1t 10 re.
tain its fcrtilizing qualities. The re.
suits showed that the stall manure
was very greatly superior TO tLc 9th.
er. which had been exposed to the
elements. The treatment with ground
phosphate rock showed that the open
yard manure had to a very consider.
able extent retained Its ammonia The
experimenters suggest that It would
be well to use the acid phosphate rock
ground fine rs an absorbent ia the
stables. so that 1t may be mixed With
the manure in Its fresh state.

Study the Mater Of WoodIots,

Farmers that have woodlots should
made study of them to a point where
they will know how to best handle the
various kinds of trees that compose
them. In the prairie states this ques.
ton is less acute than 1t is in the
hilly states. for the reason that the
proportion of land good only for wood
growing is much smaller in the prairie
states than 1t is in the hilly states,
But the greater scarcity of wood
makes its care all the more neces.
sary. There are many localities In
the East where wood will be a cheap
forest trees and SO keep the land In a
fuel for generation yet. Not SO in
the prairie states. 1t will in many
cases pay the farmer to learn some.
thing about growing forest trees from
seeds, including the handling and
transplanting Of the seedlings. There
is much land on some OF our farms
that is neither wood land nor arabic
land. 1t should be so treated that II
will be one thing or the other. Now
1t is growing weeds, alders, ana
shrubs of no account to the woodmap.
Moreover. these weeds and shrubs
prevent the growing of the seeds of
condition Of uselessness. If the land
be wet, yet there are varieties of trees
that will grow in such place and it
is better to have them than to have
nothing. There are other places on
the farm that are being quilted to
death, so far as the plow is concerned.
They too can be put into forest, II
only on n small scale. We have
hardly yet touched this great matter
in this country, as coal and wood have
been hitherto abundant. But the time
is here when the matter must and will
receive attention.
