AGENTS SELL FARM PRODUCE
Number of Farmers COOPERATIVE As
socIations Making Rapid Increase
All Over Country.

The number of farmers cooperative
associations through which produce is
marketed is increasing continually.
Various fruits and vegetables, grain,
tobacco, peanuts, rice and other prod
ucts are sold by the agents OF such
associations. says Market Growers
Journal In the state OF Colorado
alone there were in 1907 TT least thir-
ty-three such organizations, and the
products handled by them included
cantaloupes, peaches. honey. potatoes.
and miscellaneous fruits and vegeta-
bles. A number of California associa-
tons have united to form larger bodies
through which sales are made. while
the local organizations pack and load
the produce.
At least two produce exchanges
have been conducted successfully for
a number of years by truck growers
of the peninsula lying between the
Chesapeake bav and the Atlantic
ocean. The cranberry crop is market
ed largely through farmers organiza-
tons, and similar associations, too nu-
merous to be listed mere, are improv-
ing conditions of marketing In other
parts OF the United States.
The extent to which the cooperative
movement among farmers is distrib-
uted may be illustrated by the apples
from Hood River, Ore, which are mar
keted in this way; fruits and vegeta-
bles from Yuma Valley. Arizona, cell
cry from Florida, catalogues from
Tennessee, onions from central and
western Texas. tobacco from Ken
lucky, grain from Minnesota and
North Dakota. rice from Texas,
peaches from Georgia, vegetables from
Louisiana, and various articles from
Michigan, In addition 10 a large num-
Der of products from California.
Two Of the important results OF CO.
operation In marketing have been the
shipment of better grades of fruits
and vegetables. and the command by
the farmers of a greater influence I'm
the market on account of large quaint
ties of produce being controlled by a
single authority.

Feeding Calves in Summer.

In warm weather calves should be
kept in during the daytime and turned
out during the evening, SO as to avoid
the hot sun and the flies. Whole or
chopped oats should be fed. or a mix
ture of whole and chopped oats. About
a cupful twice day for an ordinary
sized calf that is on good pasture will
be sufficient For fall feeding. until
the roots are harvested. there is moth
ing equal to green corn run through
the cutting box and mixed with some
chopped oats.
The main point in calf feeding is
never allow them to stop growing, and
for beef animals keep them ia good
flesh. In feeding calves. as in every
system of feeding. the extremes of
over and under feeding are TO be avoid
ed Continuous, regular. liberal feed
ing always brings the most profit and
the best practical results

GENERAL FARM NOTES.

Practise crop rotation.
Hens pursue their art of laying for
arts sake alone.
Forcing wears out horse more
than the work does.
Horticulture should be allowed TO
bloom I'm every mans yard.
The soil brings proper returns when
properly turned.
Don't allow the stock or wagons TO
pack the soil in the orchard.
If you want TO please the pigs do not
conlne them to a small pen.
The idea of an incubator does not
set we'll with the hen that wants to
set herself.
Horses that are used exclusively on
the farm and do no road work should
go unshod.
Most of the failures in the chicken
business are due to lack of knowledge
and training.
Whenever a horse is pushed out of
his natural gait, he works at a disad-
vantage to himself.
An increased poultry population
means increased poultry pleasures and
poultry profits
The man who gathers the crop is
the man who also has something to do
with the prices.
The first education a calf gets is in
the art of drinking milk out of pail.
All calves are opposed TO education.

The best peace maker on a farm
Is an account book.
A leyel-headed man avoids many
ups and downs in life.
Some men imagine they are honest
Just because they have no good chance
to steal.
BY the compost heap the farmer is
able to multiply his available manure
MANIFOLD.
The union must have well defined
policies. and those policies kept be-
fore the people.
II we would only do our thinking be
fore acting We would save a lot OF
brain flag later on
The union without politics is like a
ship without a rudder-sure to get on
the rocks and shoals and sink.
No farmer In this twentieth century
is too big for his job. The job is more
likely 10 be too big for the farmer.
To assist members In buying and
selling is another specification OF the
aims and intent of the Farmers union.
The man who is always telling you
things I'm the strictest confidence" sell
dom imparts any Information that is
profitable.
Its hard work fighting the weeds
these days. but they are Just as trou-
blesome to our neighbors in the next
township.
The owl isn't as smart as the blue
jay, but because he keeps his mouth
shut he has created a reputation for
wisdom far beyond his deserts.
The Farmers union is like the
church: 1t needs preachers; men who
can teach the people business; unless
this Is done the union will eventually
fail.

SNAKE HELPS HATCH EGGS

Three little chicks belonging to W.
B. McCracken of Long Beach, Cal,
have pecked their way into the world
after an unusual experience. For
thirteen days the mother hen had
been busily attending to her setting
duties when a hungry snake drove
her from the nest and gorged itself
with three eggs. The snake fingered
about the premises and McCracken
shot 1t. Wondering at It's odd proper
lions. he performed an operation and
found the eggs. They were placed
back under the hen and at the end
of the regulation time were Matched.
