VICTORY BELONG?

companies are paying 1 cent per pound
more for the butter fat in heavy cream
(cream testing 35 per cent and thick
err than they do for thinner cream
of lower test. Calling the average
price for butter fat for the year ~
cents per pound, this makes the U. s.
man $960.96. The shipping charges
on this quantity of cream, If shipped,
say, $50 miles Gas a good deal or
cream ISL would amount to $42.6O.
The Sharples man with the same
quantity of milk has 1852 lbs. OF 20
per cent cream, which contains 4,36S
lbs. butter fat, but by reason OF the
cream containing so much milk the
creameries will pay only Fl cents per
pound for it, $917.28. He has sent
double the amount of cream, or 1886
lbs. more than the U. S. man, but no
more butter fat and has, therefore,
lost that many pounds of milk, for
which he gets no pay and should nave
kept at home for his calves and pigs
This, when warm and sweet, is worth
as much per 100 lbs. as bushel OF
corn, and worth at least $43.65. His
transportation charges were double
that of the U. S. man and cost him
$500 to ship his cream Here is
loss of $4260 on this item.

WALKS AND TALKS
ON WESTERN AVENUE
. BY f. WALDEN. =

The markets of Seattle are in a
healthy condition. Potatoes have gone
up and are worth from $22 to S24 per
ton. Some claim that this advance in
spuds is owing to the unfavorable
weather and the bad roads east of the
Cascades. Others doubt this and say
the demand in the east is the prime
factor in the high price of potatoes.
No one need be greatly surprised if po-
tatoes slump somewhat when the farm
ers put all their pitted stock on the
market. But it is not believed that
last long. The man who has good,
merchantable Burbanks is strictly in
it this year. One year with another
a man who can raise good potatoes
will make at least fair money.
Onions are stronger, that is, the
price is. They are always strong
enough in the other sense. They range
in price from cents to 3 cents per
pound.
Eggs are falling in price. The hens
are not on a strike.
Apples advanced somewhat on the
supply being limited, but the ship
ments having increased, have declined
slightly. Good fourier Winesaps are
worth about 81 per box. Fourier
Missouri Pippins are selling at $15O.
Ben Davis run from rs cents to $1.25
per box. Only the incest, high colored
fourier will bring the highest price.
AS l walked along the avenue the
other day l was shown carload OF
Ben Davis that had just arrived from
east of the mountains. They were
poor in color to begin with, and that
probably will take 10 cents off each
box. But the worst thing about them
is that it is about as poor a case OF
packing as l have ever seen. The
apples are loose in the boxes. While
these apples, well packed, ought to
have brought 80 cents to 81 per box,
they will not average Is cents. No
doubt but the shipper will blame the
commission house. But the house is
perfectly reliable and one with which
| have done much business.

Cream separators that cannot separ-
ate thick cream are not up-to-date, and
have no right to claim to be Right
Now Separators.'
The Sharples separator has been
trying to make a victory out of de-
feat at the tests at Fairmont, Mimi,
but Sharples separator cannot skim
thick cream, and was, therefore, beaten
in the tests. Sharples could skim thin
cream only. Admitting, for the sake
of argument, that Sharples was able
to do all they claim, let us compare
the loss that the farmer will sustain
by the use of the Sharples separator,
taking their own figures for it:
Take two farmers, both large dairy
men, producing 300 lbs. OF milk per
day, containing per cent butter fat
One uses the U. S. Separator; the
other uses Sharples Separator, both OF
them skimming exactiy as published
and alleged by the Sharples Company.
Three hundred lbs. per day aggregates
500 per year.
The U. S. man secures 8,736 lbs. OF
so per cent cream in year, contain
ing 4,368 lbs of butter fat. Because
of the superior keeping qualities OF
thick cream and the great saving In
transportation, all the large creamery

Suing for His Salary.

Capt. c. N. HogaA, horticultural in
spector of Cowlitz county, has sued the
county of Lewis for $490.40, alleged
to be due for services as horticultural
inspector of the latter county. Last
summer Lewis county mad no horticul-
tural inspector and on the recommen-
dation of a horticultural society at
Knab, Horticultural Commissioner Van
Holderbeke appointed Capt. Hogan tc
act in Lewis county. Capt. Hogan
filed his bills regularly, but the COM
missioners would not recognize him.
The commissioners, in January ap-
pointed F. A. Degler, on the recommen-
dation of the Lewis County Horticul-
tural Society, which has headquarters
at Centralia, as horticultural inspector
for the county, but the state horticul-
tural commissioner refused to recog-
nize the appointment of Mr. Degler
Capt. Hogan's suit is for five months
services, commencing with August,
1903.
