STATE FURNISHES READING
Small Towns May Obtain Good
Libraries Without Cost.

The Oregon Library Commission
has several new travelling libraries to
send out in the state. The travelling
Libraries are intended for farming
communities and small villages not
enjoying library privileges and unable
to support a library. There is abso-
lutely no charge for the libraries ex-
cept the transportation charge both
ways. The books are packed in a
strong wooden box and sent by
freight. The weight averages 100
pounds. The library may be kept six
months, and then returned to the
Commission and exchanged for an
other and different lot Of books. The
books must be loaned free OF charge
to all responsible persons in the COM
munity.
The Libraries are usually kept In
the most convenient public place,
schoolhouse, postofiice. garage, hall,
store, or in a home. They are made
up of the very best books for grown
people and for children. Each library
contains so popular and interesting
books of fiction, history, travel. biog- |
raphy science. sociology, and litera- |
ture, books which old and young will
enjoy.
II you are Interested In a travelling
library for your community write to
the Library Commission, Salem, ore
gon, for further information.

THE CREAMERY PROMOTER.

A good many queries are being re-
ceived by agricultural journals in diff
| ferent sections of the country relative
to the dependence that can be placed
upon the so called creamery promoter.
The reply given In every instance that
has come under our notice is that these
chaps should be given wide berth.
This advice is sound and should be
followed. These fellows know about
as much of the creamery business,
the conditions which exist in any
given locality and the problems which
would arise, as cat does about
Hebrew. They are in the business of
promoting creameries primarily for the
purpose of filling their pockets with
easy money and not to further the
dairy or creamery business and to
bring profits to the patrons of
creamery enterprise. If the farmers
In any section make up their minds
that they want to embark in the
creamery business-and the decision is
hioC OIC huGIc are 6uUuSu
patrons to support 1.-THE sensible
thing to do is to call in some one who
has permanent postotfice address, the
state dairy commissioner, some repre-
sentative he may send or some man of |
repute who is known to have had ex-
tended and successful experience in
the creamery business. Many an en-
terprise of this kind has fizzed out
because of a bad start and because
those interested In it did not have an
adequate idea of the conditions which
really existed or the degree of success
that 1t was possible TO attain. The
kind of authorities referred to will
know about the problems likely to con
front new project of this kind and
Will be able to give helpful directions
md suggestions. The difference be-
.ween the fat sum that would have to
De forked over to fly by night pro
noter and the modest sum required to
iefray the travelling and hotel ex-
)enses of some reputable creamery au-
hority will go quite way in buying ,
'quipment. coal and machine oil.

FUNGUS POTATOES.
Old Disease That Is Caused by Too
Much Wet Weather.

Last July and early in August we
had considerable wet weather The
potato tops suffered badly from a
blight. However. the vine recovered
sufficiently to mature a fair crop. All
through the winter the query WAS
What makes the cooked potato have
such a sweet tastey" And again IN
cutting the tuber a brownish streak
or bloteh appears all through the tn
Der resembling a marble cake. This
Is seated mostly beneath where the
eyes are rNd about one-eightb of an
inch from the surface. The potato
shows no outward sign of disease ev-
cept that the eyes do not push as ran
idly on a diseased potato as they do
on one free from it. These streaks are
about one inch long and oue-fourtb
inch wide.
The query was. what caused that
peculiar streaking in the tuhery" In
looking over history Of fungoids and 1
fungous disease of the potato we find /
that a very similar condition existed 4
In Ireland in 1915. resulting in a great
potato famine there. That wear was
very wet year. and the natural moist
climate Of Ireland gave a great i'm
petus TO this disease. Ii has not reap-
peared 10 any great extent tin last

WOULD INCREASE DEMAND
American Apple Growers Should
Send Exhibits to England.

In answer to an oregon inquiry as
to the advisability of Increasing
American trade by exhibiting apples
throughout England, Consul Charles
N. Daniels. of Sheffield, writes as fol-
lows:
Many of the wholesale dealers in
apples in this city have personally
expressed to me their desire to make
direct connection with growers and
packers of American apples, provided
they can be assured of reliably sorted
and packed fruit. No better way ex-
lists in which direct trade could be
established than the way you suggest;
in fact, the principal competitors with
American apples, the Canadian grow
ers, are already doing as you propose.
Last November the province of
British Columbia made fine exhibi-
ton of apples in this city. The exhibit
was in charge of the horticultural
commissioner of the province, who
told me he had brought over two car
loads of apples, had placed them in
cold storage on this side, and intend
ed exhibiting them in all the princi- |
pal cities of England and Scotland |
His main object was to acquaint the
people of England with the possibili-
ties the province offered to prospect
i've settlers; but aside from a series of
limelight pictures he showed, the ap-
pie exhibit was the only real one he
had with him. His plan was to ar
range for stay of day or two in a
city, ship to that city a sufficient
quantity of fruit (say 40 or so cases) ;
to make a show exhibit his pictures, {
and give his talk; then sell his fruit |
exhibit to some dealer, move OH to s
the next city and repeat. His exhibit I
ton in this city was given in the corn I
exchange, in connection with the an
nual exhibition of the Sheffield Chrys- )
anthemum Society, and on account of t
lack of time, owing to its occurring a
so soon after he reached England n
apples here, but shipped them to Il
Scotland for an exhibit there. His
exhibit attracted a good deal of atten- Il
ton. Such plans could not result in t.
very much of financial loss. Y
Sheffield has a population of 450,- Il
300, and furnishes good market for Il
apples. Should it, however, fail to Il
provide enough trade, with stock in e'
,old storage at some convenient point el
IN the coast other cities in the mid NJ
ands would be within easy reach, d,
nd any of them would furnish as CT
-ood a market as Sheffield. Apples al
re now selling at retail at cents per
'ound for ordinary fruit to 1G cents sa
er pound for selected Oregon New is
owns, showing that the price would ce
epend largely upon the quality.
BY carrying out the plan proposed, qu
ositive information could be secured de
5 to the needs and requirements Of al
lls market, and If the first venture no
Id not prove a paying one, it would
ute likely result in the establish ch
ent of permanent trade relations iu

A POSSIBLE CAUSE OF FAILURE.

A POSSIBLE CAUSE or FAILURE.
Many a failure with alfalfa and clo-
yer seems directly traceable TO the
fact that the soii on which the seed
was sown was sour and needed sweet
ening with an application OF lime at
the rate Of two or thre tons per acre
Where such treatment has followed
previous failure with alfalfa really
remarkable results have been secured.
The lime should be applied to the land

DOUBLING THE CORN YIELD.
Every Farmer Can Breed Better Grain,
Says Wisconsin Authority.

Every Farmer Can Breed Better Grain,
Says Wisconsin Authority.
If it is possible to increase the yield
of corn from ten to thirty bushels per
acre we should all be made aware of
that fact in the shortest possible time.
for it makes great difference to the
farmer who is ON high priced land
whether he is growing thirty-five bush
els of corn per acre or sixty, says Pro
fessor r. A. Moore of the University
of Wisconsin, writing in Farm and
Fireside.
large portion of the advanced yield
of corn in Wisconsin has been brought
about by using definite select breeds
of kiln dried seed that has high ener-
gy and vitality. Better culture has of
course contributed to the result.
We cannot emphasize too much the
importance of having seed corn grown
In close proximity to where it is to
be used. 1t usually takes several
years continual growing before corn
becomes thoroughly accIimated to the
surrounding environment of soil and
climate, and if a radical change is
made the corn will deteriorate.
AS far as possible every farmer aft
er getting started with highly bred
seed should grow and develop his I
own seed from year to year. His first |
efforts should be toward selecting for
an ideal corn plant He should have
In his mind those sDecial charactpris-
tics he desires to perpetuate. Such
