IN CROWDED CITY QUARTERS.

Milwaukee Free Press: The story IN
told OF a farmer who recently attended
meeting OF representatives OF the milk
producers in New York. who had never
been In the city before. Will. there he
went with other representatives over
on the east side" vi ere the people
swarm IN the tenemeuts. more people
in one house than ia a rural village.
and more Inhabitants In a block than
in a good sized country town" There
he saw the push-cRris laden with
vegetables and stands where the food
supply OF the quarter ~ sold. our
farmer declared that he would not feed
such stun as was sold la mis- pigs. He
found that the dccaycd fruit and veget-
ublcs were sold at prices from four TO
ten times az great as he received for
the fresh and wholesome produce Of his
own farm and garden, and this Is what
he said:
It's u pity we cannot get these peo-
pie To come up our way We pay SIS
and $50 month and board. and even
then We cannot get a labor We need.
How much better IL would be- for them

What IL true 81 New York is equally
true OF every large city in the country.
People crowd into the cities where only
starvation wages an the poorest living
can BE- found. while untitled land

USING GULL POTATOES.

week ago the writer visited one OF the
most famous potato growing farms In the
east and was asiunishcd to see over n hun
dred barrels OF seed potatoes being un-
loaded preparatory TO planting. The own
ers OF this farm cialm that 10 pays them to
buy seed potatoes OF their fayoritc varic-
ties at least every third year. using their
own products the alternating years. They
pay the highest price for selected tubers
throwing out specimens that we would use
for seed without hesitancy. These men
grow potatoes largely for the hotel and
restaurant trade OF a ncighborinR city and
must have the very best. Noticing that
the stock were being fed some very fair
looking tubers We asked why those were
not sold II they did not consider them
suitable for seed. The reply Was that they
would not SUIT their trad, and that they
had no inclination TO fnd general market
for them, and. again. under no circum-
stances would they be guilty OF selling
them for seed for they knew they were
running out and not ~, for seed. II po-
tato growers generally would work on this
same plan. In n modified degree perhaps
they would get results which could not
fail 90 be profitable. There IN nothing
with the possibl" exception Of wheat
where poor seeds cause such serious loss
az In potatoes. and IL II fair TO say that
about one-half Of the iub"rs used FOR seed
potatoes are culls and should be- fed to
stock where they will accomplish much
more In the way OF monry-mIking than
bN ulnutiTR for A Prpt.

they have too much In the way Of mineral
