FOR MAlL-oRDER TRADE.
Factories Where Adulterated and Mis-
branded Goods are Put Up.

A visit made a short time ago by
the health officers of Chicago to fac
tory where canned goods were pre-
pared for the maiI-order trade, dis
closed the fact that it was rank
artificial food factory. Tomato cat
sups were made from pumpkin pulp;
fine strawberry and raspberry jam was
made from glucose, starch and the
only evidence of fruits were a lot of
dried apple Feelings and cores, which
were used as base. The seed sup
posed to the berry seeds, was grass
seed; the natural coloring was coal tar
dyes, and in the whole thing was a
fraud factory from start to finish.
Several thousand cans of fruit were
found. These were old, several years
perhaps, and the labels dirty showing
their age. From these the labels
were removed and new ones put on.
These goods were dead stock on the
manufacturers hands, until bought for
a mere song by the mail-order con-
Germ.

where the entire family will naturally

LOCAL PRODUCE MARKETS.
How Agricultural Towns Can Assist In
Preventing CORNERS" in Produce.

Now and then complaint is heard Of
how the large packing houses and
handlers of produce manipulate prices
of eggs and poultry. These concerns
are enabled to do this through their
facilities for extensively handling
goods and preserving them in their
mammoth cold storage plants. Their
system is to buy in the lowest market
and hold the produce until the demand
is such that prices reach the top notch.
1t is evident that were the business
men of small towns to follow out to
some extent the plans of these large
houses, the home market would be ma
terially improved. In the agricultural
towns merchants are the most extern
sive handlers of farmers produce.
This business is incidental to the mer-
camille business, and few merchants
have proper facilities for the storing
and proper care of perishable goods,
therefore, Immediately upon, receiving
supplies from the farmer, consign-
ments are made to the commission
houses in the large cities, and thus are
the large commission men enabled to
obtain control of the markets and to
manipulate prices. 4
Each agricultural community pro-
duces enough poultry and eggs and
miscellaneous dairy products to sup
port a prosperous exclusive produce
house. But when the articles that the
farmers have for sale are distributed
among dozen or more stores, each
acting independently, it is evident that
highest market prices cannot be paid.
The plan proposed for the organiza-
ton of cooperative produce companies
in each town has many desirable
points in its favor. At small expense
coldstorage plant of adequate capac-
lty to handle all perishable products
of the community can be put in order.
plant of this kind, If rightly man
aged, would greatly improve the con-
dit1ons of the local markets and higher
prices could be paid for produce than
the merchants could afford to pay for
the same.
A number of towns in the middle
west have adopted this system, and
with success. Not alone have the
home markets been greatly improved,
but a greater volume of trade has
been brought to the merchants. Should
this plan be universally followed, b
agricultural districts, it would lessen
the opportunity for the manipulation
of prices of produce, and the corner.
ing of the market by the large COM
mission and packing houses.

The Farmers Poultry.

1t is doubtful If there is another
living creature On the average farm
that is SO frequently or SO badly neg
lected as the hen.
For instance, the horses and cattle
are stalled and bedded, the selfish hog
will have comfortable quarters, good
feed and management or set up a
squeal about it, while the sheep also
have their fold.
But the helpless chicken is left to
find what rail or tree or wagon tongue
she can. and make this ner home,
sweet home"
OF course the returns come from
each branch in proportion to the
amount invested, and so Under the
conditions outlined above it is inevita-
BILE that the poultry pay the least re-
turns.
And the farmer says f'hens don't
pay nohow," provides larger and bet
ter quarters for his other live stock
another year and neglects. the hens a
little bit worse than ever.

SOUTHERN
AGRICULTURE
PROFIT IN PIGS.
Best Results Are Obtained BY Breed
ing Pure-Breds to Sell.


Fall pigs can be grown as easily
and fully as fast as spring pigs if one
is prepared to give them warm, dry
quarters to sleep in and will feed
warm feed in winter. but to get the
best out of them they should come
early in September or not later than
Oct. 1. By this narrowing date, good
care through the winter put on early
clover and fed well they will be ready
for June market, which, taken one
year with another, is as good as any
or better. If breeding pigs to sell to
other breeders, one should have pigs
farrowed almost every month in the
year, with possibly an exception dur
ing December and January. The breed
er of this kind must try and have
the ages that are demanded over the
different states.
There is another little matter / wish
to mention. this is of one is breeding
to sell to other breeders and has a
trade coming from many quarters,
that he should keep his farm and sur
roundings in good order, neat and at
tractive. First impressions are last
ing, and if customer comes to your
place and finds everything in a rum
down, slovenly condition, he naturally
gets the impression that you are care
less, and if your hogs and pigs are
running together, old and young, and
no marks to identify one litter from
another, he would be very apt to pass
on, and we'll he should. have visited
some breeding farms where there was
not a pig marked to distinguish him
from others.
The owner would say that he knew
every pig on the farm. This may be
the case where there is not many,
but even then suppose this man should
be taken sick for three weeks, he
could not go out and distinguish a
pig. Two or three weeks in a pigs
life will make a wonderful difference
with him. The best way is to mark
every pig in the litter, and make a
record of it, so there can be no mis-
take. This is, of course, not necessary
unless one is breeding pure-bred pigs
for the trade.
In conclusion, let me say il he be
breeder of pure breds, to always
keep everything in ship-shape. Do
not have to guess at anything about
your business. Keep your farm and
premises neat, every hog and pig
properly marked, that there may be
no possible mistakes; keep a record
of the date of narrowing of every lit
ter, the number of males and females
in each, the name and registry num-
Der of both sire and dam, and when a
man comes to look over your herd be
prepared to answer every question
correctly. Breed good enough animals
SO that you won't have to put up
sign to show that your hogs are pure
breds; let every one of them be a
living advertisement that you are
breeding good ones.
Breed well. feed well, care for ev-
cry detail carefully, be systematic in
everything, and the breeding of swine,
either for the market or for selling to
other breeders, will be pleasure and
croft to you.
