The Cabbage Crop.

4 considerable portion of the cab
bage crop is handled in bulk. When
forwarded by carload or shipload the
heads are cut from the stalks with a
heavy knife or light Ratchet and all the
outer leaves left on. When prepared
for market they are dressed up by re-
moving the outer unbeached leaves.
Cabbages are often shipped in venti-
lated or slat barrels. Tight barrels
keep them too warm and may cause
rotring BY far the best carrier for
shipping cabbage is the barrel size
crate. This carries the heads securely,
packs in well on board train or boat

SUGAR Beet Industry,

The benefits from growing sugar
beets do not stop with the crops. They
are felt In stock production as we'll.
No farmer can begin to appreciate un-
til he has experience the value of mo-
lasses and sugar beet pulp-Dyproducts
OF the sugar factory-as a food for
stock. OF these every sugar factory is
turning out at least half the original
weight of the beets Pulp is immedl-
ately available for the farmers use. 1t
Is easily stored and kept As a rule, 1t
Is considerably cheaper than any other
feed he can buy or produce. Usually
this pulp can be purchased at the fac
tory for S5 cents to 81 per ton. Such
low prices must necessarily continue
for some tlme.-C. +. Saylor
