The Farmers Advantages in
Canning.
Progressive Farmer.

Progressive Farmer.
promised to tell your read
ers why we farmers could put up
the finest canned goods in the
world. You know this is my
"hobby.' The reasons are plain ,
if YOU will just think a little.
Take peaches, for instance. If
You want the most delicious
peach you can possibly get, let
it hang on the tree until thor
Oughly ripe before You gather it.
And every housekeeper knows
that to have the best dish of
s'rlng-beans they must be gath
cred in the early morning and
cooked the same day. If allowed
to wilt they are never so good.
Now this applies to all fruits
and vegetables more or less, and
especially in canning them. All
we can hope to do in canning
is to keep the article Just as good
as it is. We cant make il any
better. So great advantage
the farmer has over the large
packer, IS that he can let his
goods ripen on the tree or vine,
and gather and can them the
day. | have learned from
The Lancaster news. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1905-current, 1906-05-05

experience that this makes a
great difference, more than any
one would think who has not
looked into the matter carefully.
Another great advantage is,
that we farmers DO our own
work, or give it u personal at
tenlion. We do a small business
and can exercise more care in
preparing the fruits and vegeta-
bles, and especially in packing
every can full. One can careless
ly filled will injure your repu
tation. Where this work is all
done by the different members
of the family, all of whom are
interested in the success of the
undertaking, aud are doing their
best 10 win, no large packer need
compete, tor he will be left if he
does.

smoothly and with little effort.
The work goes on in the same
way throughout the season. The
seeder is clogged with decaying
oats, the cornplanter skips, the
pitman box on the mower heats,
and the binder will not tie until
a day has been spent in working
with it.
Not only does the yearly rust
ing and wearing smooth waste
the energy of the farmer and
his horses, but the machinery
wears out more rapidly. John
Deere SAYS: "The effect of the
weather is really harder on ma
chinery than the actual wear in
the field According to the pre-
ceeding statement, which is YER
tilted by many other implement
men, the life of a machine wi |
be doubled if that machine is
properly housed. Now we will
say the average farmer has six
hundred dollars invested in farm
machinery, which is a very low
estimate. If left out to the wealth.
err, a new stock will have to be
bought about every six years.
This means a needless expense
Of six hundred dollars every
twelve years, or fifty dollars a
year.
The remedy for this unneces.
airy waste is very simple. A shed,
ample to house the machinery
for q one hundred and sixty acre
farm may be built for about one
hundred and fifty dollars. All
that is necessary is to keep the
implements dry.
One hundred and fifty dollars
invested in this way would thus
be paying thirty three and one
third per cent interest per year.
With high priced land and the
close economy needful to make
a profit, the housing of farm
machinery must be taken into
account.

to about fifty-seven millions of
dollars, the question Of how best
to prolong the lie of the ma

i serious one with every farmer.
That the question does not re-

Let us follow two farmers

After cleaning the dead grass of

a start. The moist dirt at once
adheres to the rusty mOldboard,
and the horses come to a halt.
The farmer gets off the seat, and
if he has not provided himself
with a paddle, does so, and re-
moves the soil, finding perhaps
