SELLING. THE GRAIN CROP.
Lines Alcag Which Farmers Should
Work Together Seriously to Their
Mutual Advantage,

We have from time to time urged
our readers to put their products in
good condition bsfore putting them Oh
the market, and then to- use the pre-.
cautions necessary to secure returns
according to the merit of the article.
The hum of the thresher is now heard
In the land, and there will be much
grain hauled direct from the machine
to the elevator at whatever price the
elevator man may choose to offer.
This is not saying that the elevator
man can afford to pay more under
present conditions. The fault we have
to md is with the conditions OF
marketing grain as they exist over a
large part of the country. AS these
are the outgrowlh of the practices OF
farmers the latter must look to- them
selves for the remedy.
The particular evil we refer to is
the very common practice of grain
dealers of paying one price for the
different grades of one kind of grain.
This is a great injustice to those who,
by reason of better methods of farm
ing and better care of crops, supply
an article that is more free from wesd
seeds and is in other ways of a.quali-
ty superior to that of their more
shiftless neighbors. Such practice is
poor encouragement for a man to- try
to improve the quality of his output.
This is a point, however, says the
Prairie Farmer, on which the enter
prising farmers in g community can
work together to their mutual advan-
tage. They can put their product in
first-class condition and if the home
buyer will not pay a satisfactory in
crease in price over the poorer grades
they can ship to central market with
the assurance that they will get the
top price there.
1t is much less trouble for the buyer
to pay an average price for all grades.
as he is in no danger of a loss through
an error of judgment as to quality.
Also it relieves him of the disagreea-
bic task of demonstrating to tho man
with the poor grain why a neighbor is
entitled to higher price than he is.
The grain dealer naturally slipped
into his present practice as the east
est way out of difficulty and, as we
said above, we see no remedy except
for the progressive farmers to take
the reins into their own hands. Until
they do this they will continue to suf-
fer at the expense of the man who
lets his farm grow up to weeds and
his grain spoil in the shock and bin.
so long as the present practice coh-
tinues will they be robbed to replen-
ish the pockets of the unthrifty AID
unworthy.
Perhaps the worst outcome Of NIL
this is the tendency such a practice
has of getting farmers, in general.
into careless habits. We say lin gen-
eral" because there are always few
farmers in any community who will
be careful and painstaking whether
there is a prospect Of immediate re-
Enumeration or not. But the average
man requires little stimulus in some
form to keep him up to his best In
this regard.

A DINNER-TABLE MlSHAP.
inexperienced Servant Performs His
Duty to the Letter of In
struction.

Marcel Provost, the French novelist
is favorite in the American colony
in Paris, says the Washington Star.
"WheneveY see an English bish-
op," said NJ. Provost at an American
dinner party, Il laugh little to my
self, for the good mans stately pres
ence reminds me of terrible mishap
that once befell me.
Il entertained a certain bishop last
year at dinner. My butler, an elderly
man, had brought in from a friend s
house an inexperienced lad to help
him in the dining room, and it seems
that this lad, during the laying of the
cloth, annoyed the butler beyond en-
durance with questions as to his du-
ties.
How shall hold the plates?'
"'Do I serve the dishes on the right
or on the left side of the guests?'
Must the bishop be served first or
second?'
$50 he continued interminably, and
at last the impatient Dutler said:
"'All you will need to do will be to
stand behind the bishops chair, and
whenever his lordship puts down his
glass you must reach over and wipe
his mouth with a napkin
THAT, as the butler expected, 81
fenced his assistant. But the young
man actually took the buffers ironical
remark for serious order. AS soon
as dinner began he stationed himself
behind the bishop, waited till his
lordship had drunk and put down his
glass, and then, as deliberately as his
nervousness would permit, he opened
out large napkin and wiped the dig
nified old gentleman's mouth.

per acre. The year previous to grow
ing beets the land was seeded to peas.
but was so full of alkali that the CROP
did not grow we'll. However, it was
given good cultivation and the weeds
were kept down.
Previous to planting the seed, the
ground was plowed, partly in March
and partly the previous August. About
March rs it was thoroughly narrowed
and also compacted. Tie seedbed was
in good condition. No fertilizers were
used. The seed was planted April 3, on
comparatively dry ground, 20 pounds
seed being used to the acre. The beet
seed cost ten cents per pound and was
put in with two-horse press drill and
covered 11a inches deep. The rows were
Is inches apart. Cultivation was CON-
paratively easy, the land being har-
rowed crosswise to break the crust be-
fore the seed came up. ..
The early part Of the season was
quite dry, consequently there were few
weeds to contend with. The beet plants
were thinned May 10 to 21 and the
crop was cultivated May rs, June 8
and %, and irrigated June %. Cultiva-
ton was repeated July 10. July "a a
heavy rain fell and from then on the
crop required no further cultivation or

beets were large and. fairly smooth.
The operation of harvesting was quite
