In Orchard and Field
YF1appenngs Of Moment to the Man Behind the Plow

IN writing US, and this before box
OF fruit has been shipped; so we fee
that the *" will soon be widely
known throughout the entire North
west. The Exchange has laid out
he most complete advertising cam
paign that has ever been under
taken by any shipping concern, no
matter of what size, in this section
of the country. We believe in ad-
verting. Why not? Every other
thing that is sold today to good ad-
vantage is advertised-then why
not fruit? The benefits Of this ad-
vertising will be felt throughout the
season and for the seasons to come.
Successful shippers of fruits are
today putting present-day methods
to work in their business. I be-
lieve that no business today is fur
Their behind the times in methods
than the fruit shipping business in
the Northwest. California adver-
tises and thereby she is known in
every country in the world. She
maintains permanent displays of
her products and her advertising
has had the effect of placing the
idea in the minds Of the foreign
trade that California is the biggest
thing in America. Just so with ad-
vertising the Kennewick valley pro-
ducts-we can make the trade be-
lleve that we are the biggest little
valley in the Northwest. I think
today that Wenatchee valley is the
best advertised valley in the ex-
treme east and south for the efforts
put forth by the people of the Wen
atchee valley have been many and
constant, with the result that you
are asked in many cases by eastern
ers if where you live or ship from
is near or in the Wenatchee Valley.
A matter of live interest to the
peach growers of this valley is being
worked out and that is securing
lower freight rates to Missouri River
points. This reduction, if it can
be secured, and we have strong hopes
that it will, means saving of five
cents per box to the growers on
every box of peaches going in
straight car lots into the above
named territory. The Exchange
will do everything in it's power to
keep this rate matter going through.
Everything possible is being done
to further the demand for the pro-
ducts of this valley and to make it
possible to pay the grower a profit
able price. CHAs. H. COLLINS,

The MARKET OUTLOOK FOR 1914
written for The Courier.

written for The Courier)
The sales department of the Ken
newick Fruit Exchange has been
covering the Northwest with letters
OF inquiry as to the general condi-
ton OF the various sections through
out which the fruits and produce of
the Kennewick Valley will be mar
keted this year. On the whole, a
good feeling prevails among the
buying public as to the prospect OF
active movement of fruits this year
but great deal of the success OF
the years prices will depend on the
attitude of the shippers and the
methods used in the marketing of
their crops.
The Exchange will use the per-
sonal salesman plan which has
proved so successful in every Sec
ton where it has been used. By so
doing we get direct information as
to the conditions of the market and
we get this information from a man
who is in our employ and one who
holds down his job just so long as
he does work for our best interests.
The benefits from using the person
al salesman plan are many fold,
principally because much better
prices can be gotten through the ef-
forts of such men. With our own
men on the ground we can, at a
moments notice, take care of any
account which we feel needs atten-
ton and they also keep the sales of
flee here in Kennewick advised as
to the movements of our competit-
ors. This is very important, as we
can then gauge our shipments so as
not to conflict with those of other
sections.
The work now being carried on
by the sales department is that of
ascertaining crop conditions in other
sections and circulating throughout
the buying world the fact that Ken
newick is going to be on the market
this year in full force-that Kenne-
wick is going to have 100 cars each
of watermelons and the best cante-
loupes that were ever shipped from
any point, that we have adopted
the standard varieties of these mel
ons and that our stock will be
graded and packed with utmost
care. Also that Kennewick is COM
ing out under her own colors this
year, under brand new label, and
the most attractive label that has
ever been gotten out for any valley.
Already the work is taking effect
and in every mail we are getting re-
quests for more information regard
ing the different products that are
to be grown in this valley this year.
This advance work will be of great
service to the growers in this val
ley this year and it is with this in
view that the work is being done.
G rowers should work in harmony
W it'll the Exchange by keeping us
posted as to the exact acreage that
they are intending to plant and
also as to the condition and the
crop estimate of the various fruits
and produce that they have in bear
ing. 1t is possible under this method
to have the fruit practically placed
before crate goes out.

SUGGESTIONS FOR CALF RAISING

NeoIO hApCAiiiiOhu CtoViOh
makes the following suggestions in
regard to calf feeding:
We prefer to take the calf from
the mother as soon as dropped, not
allowing it to nurse once. By this
method the COW soon forgets the
calf and the latter is much more
easily taught to drink.
The mothers milk should be fed
the first week, beginning when the
calf is "a to So hours old. The
milk must be fresh and warm (about
IS to 100 degrees Fahrenheit) and
must always be fed from a clean
pail, preferably a tin pail. A
wooden pail is too hard to keep
sweet and clean.
The second week whole milk from
any COW may be fed, and the third
week, if the calf is in good health
and growing nicely, the change to
skim milk may be begun. Do not
make the mistake of feeding more
skim milk simply because the cream
is removed. The whole milk con-
tains about as much protein as the
calf can handle, and when skim
milk is fed in large quantities, the
calf gets more than he can use and
as consequence a sick calf is the
result.
The change from whole milk to
skim milk must be gradual: From
one-half to one and one half pounds
per day, depending upon the size
and vigor of the calf. To an aver
age calf two weeks old, we would
feed about twelve pounds per day
of whole milk. The first day of
the third week or when it is de-
sirable to begin the change) the
daily feed would be eleven pounds
of whole milk and one pound of
skim milk; the second day, ten
pounds of whole milk and two
pounds of skim milk, and so on
until the complete change is made.
1t is just as essential to feed the
skim milk warm as the whole milk,
although when the calf gets larger
and stronger, six to ten weeks old,
a gradual change to cold milk may
be made.
Allow the calf a clean, airy pad
dock or box stall in which to get
exercise. Give him some well cured
hay, such as timothy and clover,
or timothy alone, as soon as he will
eat it, which will be when he is
from three to four weeks old. AL
falfa in small quantities may be fed,
but with this roughage there is
danger of the calf's eating more than
he can properly digest.
Grain may be fed as soon as he
will take it, and for this purpose a
mi xture of bran and crushed oats,
or crushed oats alone is recon-
mended.
Calves should be fed in a stan
chion so constructed as to prevent
them from sucking each others ears
after they have drunk their milk.
The feeding of grain by placing a
little before them after every meal
ofmilk will also discourage the desire
to suck the ears of the calf in the
next stanchion.
The secret of successful calf rails
ing lies in keeping the calf's digest
i've organs in perfect shape. To do
this avoid sudden changes, either in
feeding or management. Feed warm
milk from clean pals, but do not
feed too much. Clean, sunny
quarters, exercise, and clean and
wholesome food, fed in proper
amounts at the proper time, will
lessen the number of weak calves,
and produce heifers which will de-
velop into vigorous cows.-A. B.

NITROGEN AND THE SOIL

When we know what plants need
to bring about their best develop
ment, and modern science has made
that knowledge available, we are
usually confronted with the prob
lem of how to apply that remedy in
the proper proportions. Expert
ment has shown that nitrogen is
the first plant food to become ex-
hausted and is commonly the one
that is deficient. All kinds of fer
tilizers have been tried, but they
have commonly failed of results
simply because it was impossible to
determine how much nitrogen could
be taken up by the plant at the
right time. AS solution to the
situation comes nitrate of soda which
contains Is per cent of nitrogen
that is available to the plant the
moment it is applied. In other
words, the grower, using nitrate of
soda, knows just what to expect in
the development of his crops-his
fruits, garden truck, grains and
grasses. This substance is of spec
ial value in forcing rapid develop
ment and early maturity of most
garden crops and best results are
obtained when this nitrate is ap-
piled in the early stages of growth.
1t is the hope of DR.. H. T. Graves,
state veterinarian, head of the dairy
and live stock division of the state
department of agriculture that he
will soon be able to arrange for tho
furnishing of a hog cholera serum
to the farmers of the state at cost.
AT the present time," he says,
the serum is costing the farmer
about s1.25 per hog, and we hope
to arrange this so that the farmer
can have it at about 80 cents per
bog"

Although in nature the song OF the
nightingale does not extend later than
the middle of June, yet in captivity
the bird will sing up to the time of
the autumn mott and will begin again
at Christmas. The one detraction
from the merits of the nightingale
as a pet bird is its individuality.
Some birds will sing only when no
one is in the room with them, some
will sing under any condition, and
some will be silent forever if they
change ownership. At the earnest
solicitation of friend l once parted

The Exploitation of Kansas.

Kansas lost her best advertiser when F. D. Co.
burn retired as secretary of the State board of agr
culture and it now appears that Kansas is losing
population. Coburn never made slip with his sta
tstics to prove that Kansas was the New Jerusalem
the land of milk and honey, prosperity, health and
happiness. But his successor, J. c. Mohler, seems
to be sort OF prosy fellow who Just puts down the
figures as they come to him without regard to then
effect on the publicity for Kansas The county as
SCISSORS took Of their respective counties
last March, and the new secretary of the State board
OF agriculture has completed and given to the world
the figures which show that Kansas has a popula-
ton OF I67I&4o as compared with I,535r6o ten
years ago
Now Secretary Coburn would never have ignored
the United States census figures for 1910. which gave
Kansas a population of 10000, or something like
10000 more than the State figures for 1914 Co.
burn would not have advertised the loss of popula-
ton as has his successor Coburn would also have
compared his State figures with the estimated
population by the Census Office for 1914 which
give to Kansas a population OF I78+,So7, or
something like $4,000 more than the actual count
by the county assessors and he would not have ex-
plotted the State figures. But what you expect
of Democratic official in Kansas taking the place
OF the most accomplished publicity agent in the
country? This will be one failure on the part of
the Democratic administration in Kansas hard to
explain in the present campaign Kansas wants pub
icty but she publicity to prove that hers are
the chosen people, and figures to show that they
are decreasing in number any than they are
decreasing in virtue and prosperity
The Washington herald., 1914-09-22
Shippers Must Find Something New.

Already it is announced that representatives of the
organizations of shippers who successfully opposed
the former application of the Eastern railroads for
permission to advance freight rates will again appear
and endeavor to defeat the application OF the
roads before the Interstate Commerce Commission.
1t will be interesting to note what arguments they
will produce to meet the situation which has re-
suited from the war. Presumably they will have
something new, dealing directly with the merits of
the case in its new aspect. Otherwise, they will ap-
pear merely as professional opponents of the 1egt-
mate efforts of the roads to be permitted to a
fair revenue.
The commission is fully alive to the necess-
ties of the roads, rendered doubly acute and urgent
by the falling off of commerce. They must have
revenue, and the shippers will not find easy
to convince the commission that the freight traffic
should contribute its share they did before.
Besides the commission should take pains to satisfy
itself that the who appear before it really repre-
the sentiment of the majority of shippers in the
country. Many have recently given assurance of
their sympathy with the roads and willingness to
have rates advanced, And probably not even the
shippers will argue that the increase would out
of their pockets. 1t is always the public which pays
the freight and the public has no desire to bankrupt
the railroads.
