Exit the cold storage turkey. For the
third time in twenty years we are told
that the supply kept in the freezers
from past years Is quite exhausted.
With this announcement comes the
further good news that the fresh stock
for the holiday season is larger than
last year and that there will be a re-
duction in price by Christmas.
The recent tariff revision has encour-
aged foreign competition in supplying
the demand in America for holiday tur-
keys. The import duty, which hereto
fore has been cents a pound, will be
21a cents hereafter, with competition
from other countries as a result.

raising turkeys because Of its broad

through that city of thousands of live
turkeys herded by drivers going to the
slaughter pen.
Jewish people demand live turkeys
for their Thanksgiving feast, and the
shipments are usually heavy the week
before that holiday. Last year live tur-
keys, too, were late arriving, and the
loss suffered by live poultry shippers
averaged $500 car. Receivers notified
shippers that they must deliver the
stock early this year.

CROP PROFITS PAY FOR
LAND, LATEST SCHEME.
Small Farmers Success on Irrigation
Project Attracts Government.

Inspired by the success that has at
tended private experiment on the
government irrigation project in the
Uncompahgre valley. Colorado, the Of
ficials of the federal reclamation serv-
ice are contemplating an extension Of
the plan over many irrigation areas of
the west to attract the small farmer to
the regions.
The scheme as put in operation by a
large landowner on the Uncompahgre
tract aimed to make it possible for
men of small means to establish them
selves on small farms and have the
maximum Of opportunity for success
and the minimum of responsibility and
expense in their new venture. The
settlers take up plots of five to twenty
acres and pay for the land at the rate
Of 5000 an acre on a unique Install
ment plan by turning back to the orig
inal owner part of the proceeds from
the sale of crops.
Cooperation between the owner of
the land and the small farmers is
worked out on fine scale, and every
thing possible is done to make for the
new landowners success. In order
to save expense for the newcomers the
owner agrees to do the plowing and
cultivation. A cold storage warehouse
is provided for the products of the
farmers. No money Is required of the
settler until the crops come. Half Of
the proceeds from the sale of products
is given to the landowner each. year
until the land is paid for Many set
tiers in order to hasten the time Of
payment make extra money by accept
ing employment from the owner In the
cooperative cultivation of the land or
do part of the work Of looking after
the storage warehouse.
These financial arrangements are
such as not to burden the man with
small capital and enable almost any
man with any knowledge of agricul-
ture and with fair degree Of energy
to get a foothold. The original expert
ment on which the subdivisions were
made was confined to 4S0 acres, but
the demand for the five TO twenty acre
plots has been such that the expert
ment is being gradually extended to
cover new territory on the Uncompah-
gre project.

LARGER TIMBER SALES.
Total for Last Year From National
Forest in Three States Was 115,-
O1R OO0 Feet

Washin gton.-A substantial in
crease in sales of timber from ma
tional forests in Washington, Oregon
and Alaska has been made during
the past fiscal year, according to fig
ures given out by the United States
Forest Service.
With the close of the year ended
June 80 last, the reported amount of
Government timber cut in the States
quoted, aggregated lis, 5,046,O00 feet.
The number of new sales was 673.
The amount of timber actually sold
reached a total of 492, ,82S,O00 feet
board measure. These figures show
an increase over the previous year of
3,529,000 feet in amount of timber
cut. The number of new sales in the
fiscal year of 1912 was 656, as
against 673 last year, while the
amount of timber sold was greater
by 2S2,9S0,000 feet.
In addition to timber sales proper,
3,403 permits were issued to settlers
and farmers for the free use of ma
tional timber for domestic use. This
use took 14,756,000 board feet.
The largest single cut of timber
on any Oregon and Alaska was 30,-
781, 900 feet of the national forests
in Washington, from the Tongass
forest of Alaska, and the largest
amount sold was 1853 $4,000 feet on
the Umpqua forest in Oregon.
The average stumpage price was
$1.S2 per thousand board feet, an
increase of 16 cents per thousand
over prices received in 1912. A feat
ure of the timber sales business in
the States reported or was the large
proportion Of small sales made.
These were sales to men of small
capital to supply the needs of peo-
pie living in or near the national for
ests and to furnish business oppor-
tunities to the small operator, in
pursuance of the avowed policy of
the Forest Service to provide first
for local demand before selling tim
Der for transportation to distant
markets. Only IL of the 673 sales
covered by the report were for more
than $4,000 worth of timber, while
80 per cent. of the total number
consisted of sales involving less than
500.

UNCLE SAM AIDS
The ROADMAKERS
Gives Advice on How to Build
Right Kind Of RoadS.
Model Highway Built In Sections Made
of Different Materials Helps Deter
mine Exact Value of Each Under
Certain Traffic Conditions-MiIIion
of Dollars Wasted In the Past.

So far has the government advanced
in the problems connected with road
construction that efforts are being
made to teach the country that the ex-
penditure of large sums Of money on
certain types Of roads may result al
most in total waste. A road built of
materials which would be ideal in one
locality may not serve the purpose at
all elsewhere, and the money expend-
ed may bring scarcely any result in re-
ducing the cost of hauling.
In order to aid farmers who want to
build their own roads and to assist va
rious committees that desire to i'm
prove their roads near by, the office of
public roads of the department of ag-
riculture at Washington has employed
experts to test all materials and study
their usefulness on roads subjected to
certain traffic conditions.
In Advisory Capacity.
The office of public roads is acting In
an advisory capacity to many states
and counties, giving a most practical

there is very hard traffic 1t has been
found that certain kinds of materials
are better than others, and that, while
one kind of binder may not serve the
purpose at all, another kind is ideal
and preserves the road indefinitely.
Millions of dollars doubtless have
been wasted in the past because of the
absence Of scientific knowledge which
is now being obtained. There is no
longer any excuse for any community
building the wrong kind of road, it is
declared, as the Office of public roads
stands ready to furnish any informa-
ton that may be desired as to the
course that should be pursued.
In discussing the new scientific
movement in road improvement Direc-
tor Logan Waller Page of the office Of
public roads says: ...
'There are two ways in which the
engineer may avail himself Of the in
formation necessary to a proper selec-
ton of road material. The first and
only certain one Is to make an actual
service test on the material under OBJ
servation and under the same condi-
tons of traffic and climate to which
the proposed road will be subjected.
Method Usually Impractical.
"This method, however, is imprac-
teal except in certain rare instances,
due to the lapse of time which must
elapse before definite results can be
obtained. The second method is by
means of short time laboratory tests
to approximate as nearly as possible
the destructive agencies to which the
material will be subjected on a road
supplementing the knowledge thus
gained by a study of the results al
ready obtained in practice on material
of a similar nature"
The Office of public roads constantly
uses both methods. At Chevy Chase
near Washington, a model road has
been built In sections made Of different
materials, while In the laboratory OF
the office tests are constantly being
made with scientific accuracy to deter
mine the exa}t value Of certain ma

COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY.
The Ingenious Process That Was Pers
fectsd by kumiere.

The Ingenious Process That Was Pers
fec+sd by Lumiere.
Perfection of color photography
has long been the dream of those
who work with shutter and screen
and plate and have seen the image
thrown upon the ground glass OF
the camera with its perfect colora-
ton. Today the making of such
photographs direct from the object
is possible by the Lumiere process.
In 1910 A. Lumiere of Lyons,
France, perfected a Photographic
plate which, exposed in an ordinary
camera and developed, showed the
picture in color as the eye sees it.
For ten years the greatest ex-
perts in scientific photography had
been working on the problem. Lu-
miere, experimenting alone in his
laboratory in France, discovered
the secret early in the year 1910.
His method was to coat the glass
plate with a varnish upon which he
placed thousands of microscopically
small starch grains, dyed the three
primary colors. These small specks
Of starch were spread over the plate
in such proportion that they pro-
duced white, yet seen through a
powerful magnifying glass they
showed the composition of the three
colors.
Next coating Of waterproof var
nish was put over the starch grains,
and the Photographic sensitized
emulsion over all. The plate was
placed in the camera with the glass
side next to the lens, SO that the
image formed by the lens when the
shutter was opened passed through
the grains of color before recording
on the sensitized coating. The plate
was developed in the ordinary man
ner, producing a negative.
Here again the ingenuity of Lu-
miere came to the task, and he solv.
ed the problem of turning the mega
tive into a positive by chemical
process. In the negative the colors
are complementary to the true col
ors of the object. TO convert the
negative into positive Lumiere re-
duced all the black in the various
densities by chemical process and
darkened all that was light, revers-
ing all values completely and allow
ing the light to illuminate the true
colors.-New York Post.
