Live Stock
Wilson Replies to Protest.

Washington While the boys in the
east are leaving the farms and seeking
employment elsewhere there is room
for optimism as to farm life in some
parts of the country, said Secretary
Wilson today in discussing the protest
of the National Grange of West Vir-
ginia against the figures in his annual
report relative to the value of the
wealth of American farms.
The secretary said tie figures, 49,,
76O, 600, 900, mentioned in his report as
the value of farm products last year,
merely represented the visible wealth
of the farms of the country, iuclud
ing stock. cattle, grain, etc., and had
nothing to do with the cost of making
the crops.
81 know he said, "that some
farmers claim that corn and grain
should not be counted in, along with
the stock, as the grain is fed to the
stock. But doesn't that make the
stock more valuable?'' The Grange
complained that the figures were mis-
leading and represented the farmer as
rolling in wealth, giving no data as
to the comparative small profit he
made after the hardest sort of work.

"Doc" WiIey's Advice.

ers who palm off cold storage eggs AS
fresh ones ''just from the country" is
to have their inning. Dr.. Harvey W.
Wiley, United States chemist, Meme
sis of dishonest dealers, has come to
t he rescue. He has discovered a
"cocksure' method of telling the
difference between the bogus and the
genuine fresh egg, and has given it to
the house committee which is inqulr-
ing into the high cost of living.
DR.. Wiley brought with him large
number of fresh eggs, and also some
of the cold storage variety. Dropping
them into large vessel of water, con-
tanning 10 per cent of salt solution,
the eggs Immediately sank to the bot
tom and the refrigerated ones fioated

CapitaIizing the Hen.

Dairy produces Of the farms of the
country are more valuable than any
crop except corn. Live stock sold
from farms and slaughtered on them
is worth nearly twice as much as the
cotton crop. Poultry products are
worth more than the wheat and per-
haps as much as the hay.
Not the least of subsidiary sources
of income to the farm is the product
of the American hen. More than
1925, 600, 600 must be regarded as the
value of the poultry and eggs prodac
ed on United States farms in the year
1909, and of this amount, it is safe to
say the value of eggs alone represent
ed $500, 600, 600.
From December, 1908 to December
1909 the farm price of eggs has ranged
from Is to 26 cents per dozen, while
the price to the consumer has ranged
from 30 to &C cents per dozen. At a
rough estimate there will be produced
this year no less than l. 500, 600, 600 doz-
en- eggs, which at an average price of
say 90 cents will represent value to
the farmer of $500, 900, 600. The cost
to the consumer at an average price
of 36 cents would represent the enorm-
Gus amount of $40, 600, 600.
1t is claimed that the average pro-
duction of hen is 200 eggs per year,
but it is safe to assume that the actu-
al is much below this figure. Adopt
ing the very conservative figure of 100
eggs per annum, we find on the above
basis Of production there are $50, OOO.-
600 laying hens in the United States
responsible for the production of 49,
600, 600, 600 eggs.
At the farm price of 20 cents per
dozen, the total income derived from
each hen annually would amount to 81.
Allowing 40 cents for maintenance
and 10 cents for depreciation, which
latter would wipe out the market value
of the hen in four years, irrespective
of salvage when the period of produc-
ton is over, the net profit per hen per
annum amounts to 81. so. Elk.

constantly looking toward the city of
Duluth for new and progressive agri-
cultural ideas. We know of no city
says The Farmer, where the business
men feel quite as active an interest in
agriculture as do the people of Duluth.
This condition of affairs is partly eX-
planned by the fact that the city is
growing faster than the farm land of
st. Louis County is being developed
and in order to provide reasonable
cost of living for the thousands of
workers who will soon make Duluth
their home, the development of the
agricultural land in the near vicinity
is we'll nigh imperative. Consequent
ly it is natural that Duluth businnss
men, ambitious for the city's growth,
take most active interest in matters
agricultural.
The latest step taken in helping the
farmers of st. Louis County is the
establishment of Producer Coop
erative Association. The prime pur-
pose OF the organization is the profit
able and economical marketing of
farm produce, netting the customer
more value for his money. The elimi-
nation of the middlemen, and the
middlmen of Duluth have been con-
slant source of complaint from ship
ers to that market.
The farmers and the city men, work
ing in harmony as they are now do
ing, should work wonders in changing
market conditions at Duluth.
This plan might we'll be studied with
reference to its application at other
market points. A contributor cause
to the present high cost of living is
undoubtedly the wide gap between the
producer and the consumer. 1t costs
as much to market some products to
day as it does to grow them. There
are entirely too many people living on
the mere detail of transferring farm
products from farm to the city kitch-
en-, mere parasites who are not need
ed, A practical cooperative market
ing organization will do wonders in
cutting off surplus middlemen and
rapacious commission men who have
at the present time too great an opin-
ion of their own Importance. The cost
of marketing has very intimate con-
nection with the cost of living and the
problem will have to be worked out in
the near future.
We hope to see the time come when
at every principal market point there
will be farmers selling organiza
ton, whether it be store, warehouse,
or cooperative produce commission
firm. If our farmers would Loyalty
support such an org nization and be
willing to stand the rIefs that would
come in establishing such an organiza-
ton, there would be no question OF
it's ultimate success.

FARMERS WEEK AT UNIVERSITY.

Une of the most popular and profitable
methods of discriminating agrlcuitural
knowledge eve lived inrecent years Dy the
College Of Agriculture of the University
of Maine is the Farmers week, the
fourth annual session of which IS now be-
ing held at Orono. The Farmers week
serves three-fold purpose. 1t benefits
the university by drawing the attention
of the public to the splendid work that it
is performing; it benefits those who at
tend by giving them instruction and in
formation along agricultural lines that
will tend to make their farms more
profitable and their work most easy of
accomplishment; it benefits the State by
increasing its crops and making the lot
of its people more pleasant.
The University Of Maine is an institu-
ton that is doing grand work for the
State which it. honors. 1t is instructing
its young men and, with constantly
broadening influence, by means of bulle-
tins, lectures and demonstrations, en-
Tightening the whole State. BY no means
the least important branch of its widely
diversified but splendidly systematized
work is the Farmers week, which is just
what its name indicates. week for
those who live most near to nature, who
make their living from the soil, who are
the producers, who furnish the sinews
for the millions of consumers.
We have spoken of the new agricul-
ture and the recent awakening to agri
cultural possibilities and the real exist
ence of this sentiment is clearly evidenc-
ed IN the large attendance that is wait
ing upon the exercises Of Farmers week
at the university.
1t is not one section alone that is rep
resented but the whole State, and from
every county have come farmers and
their wives to witness demonstrations
and receive instruction of the most ap-
proved methods of agriculture. The
short courses in dairying, poultry raising
and orchardng that have already been
given at the university have been Of
great value to specialists along these
lines, but the program now being pre-
sented is of most general interest and
value. Nor is its benefit confined to the
men alone for it also offers strong in
ducements to the women of the State, and
especially of this section, to take advan-
tage of the fine lectures and demonstra-
tons being given in the department of
domestic science.
The awakened interest in breeding and
dairying and the widespread interest in
the work of the week is evidenced by
the attendance of half a dozen young
men from Oxford county, whose fathers
are members of an Oxford county dairy
testing association. Bangor Commercial.
