work. The farm bureau requires mem
bership fee of not less than $780, and
with this fee and the money received
from the Nation, the State and from the
county, the bureau can easily be financed.
Not only the State and the Nation,
therefore, cooperating in conducting
extension work in agriculture and home
economics in extensive way throughout
the State of Kansas, but counties are
cooperating with them for more intensive
educational work of this kind in the
various counties having farm bureaus.
Already there are ten counties in Kan
sas with farm bureaus and county agricul-
tural agents, and four districts with dis
trict agricultural agents. Federal and
State funds are still available for five or
six bureaus in 1915. Those counties
which first make application are first
served As the Federal appropriation will
increase by $12,13O each year Tor the next
seven years, if the State will increase its
appropriation by equal amount, the
number of farm bureaus and county
agents undoubtedly will increase from
year to year also until the great majority
of the counties in the State will be thus

struction and exclusion of ferments, molds
and bacteria.
Over hundred years ago Frenchman
first made practical application of the meth
DDS of preserving food by putting it in bot
ties cans, which he Theoretically sealed.
He then put the full bottles cans in
water and boiled them AT that time, and
until recent years, it was thought that
the oxygen of the air caused the decompo-
sition of food. Scientists have proven that
it is not the oxygen which causes fermenta-
ton and putrefaction but bacteria and other
small plant growths. So, while Appert's
theory of the cause of the spelling of food
incorrect, yet the world him a
debt of gratitude, since his method of pre-

Bacteria and yeast exist in the air, in the
soil and on all vegetable and animal sub
stances Bacteria are one-celled and SO
small that they be seen only by aid of
a microscope. In growing this single cell
divides, forming two cells This goes on
rapidly that it has been estimated that
one single bacterium may produce seven
teen million similar growths in twenty-four
hours. To grow it is necessary to have
moisture, warmth and proper food.
Yeasts, which also one-celled, grow
less rapidly. A bud develops, breaks off
and forms a yeast plant

supplied. AS these bureaus cooperate
closely with Institutes, farmers unions,
oranges, other farmers organizations,
schools and churches, the machinery for
effective cooperative work in making the
principles of agriculture and home eco
nomics available to the masses of the
people will then be in shape.
What May Be Accomplished.
What may then be accomplished may be
illustrated in a small way by the reports
of the farm bureaus and agricultural
agents for the year 1914. During that
time an average of eleven men was at
work. Of these, four were district agents
working in an average area of seven coun-
ties each, the other county agents in one
county each backed by farm bureau.
These men visited 2,755 farmers on
their own farms to consult with them in
regard to their farming operations, and
had 2,224 personal calls at their offices and
approximately 5000 telephone calls
official business. They active in farm
ers' meetings and addressed $50 with an
attendance of 48,414, They organized

@ ONE one has figured out that if every
y boy in the country would eat five
apples day for the next three months
it would require all the apples which have
been produced in the country this year and
would insure fair price to the grocers.
Another thing about this boy-apple com
blnation is that it is just good for the boy
as it is for the apple market. Five apples
a day will merely keep the boys digestive
organs in good working order.
The common fruits, because of their low
nutritive value, not a rule estimated
at their real worth as food. Fruit and fruit
juice supply great variety OF flavors and
keep the blood in healthy condition.
Nowhere is there greater need of gen
erous supply of fruit than on the farm,
where the diet is apt to be restricted in va
r1ety because of the distance from markets.
The home canning of fruits and vegeta-
bles is matter of more importance to those
who grow such products than to those who
must buy them. The cost of labor and
fuel added to the cost of the raw materials
make it wiser for many to buy the canned
article.
Aside from the value as food for the fam
lily IS the convenience of canned fruits and
vegetables for emergency luncheons The
city woman who can send to the corner
grocer need not worry, but the woman in
the country where the grocer is miles away
needs to prepare for times of siege.
The essential points in all canning are
few-absolute cleanliness, sterilization and
suitable containers, which means the de

the Smith-Lever fund, will be used very
largely in conducting extension schools in
agriculture and home economics, in con
Quoting demonstrations in agriculture and
home economies, throughout the State,
and in supporting county agents and farm
bureaus. Nor did the Legislature stop
with this. 1t further enacted law which
makes it possible for counties to appro-
pirate county funds for educational work
in agriculture through farm bureaus and
agricultural agents.
Plan of Organization.
Any county that will organize a farm
bureau consisting of not less than twenty
five per cent of the farmers of the county,
many as $50 farmers, will receive not
less than $500 more than $1,000 per
year from Federal and State funds appro-
priated to the Kansas State Agricultural
College to help pay the salary of county
agricultural agent. When this is done the
county commissioners of the county itself
required to appropriate not less than
$500 and not more than $500 toward the
support of the county agricultural agent
and the farm bureau which backs up his

Bacteria grow best in foods containing
nitrogen, such as meat, fish, eggs, peas,
beans and milk especially in warm wealth
er. Bacteria do not grow fast in sweet sub
stances, while yeasts develop very rapidly
in such. Some vegetable foods contain SO
much acid that very few bacteria or yeast
attack them, as lemons cranberries and
rhubarb.
So it comes about that canned fruits
more commonly spoiled by yeast than bac-
terra. When fruits preserved with large
amounts of sugar they need not be her
metically sealed to protect them from bac-
terra and yeasts, since the thick syrup is
not favorable to their growth. However,
these are best put up in small self-sea1ing
jars, because mold grows freely moist
sugary substances exposed to the air.
Every housekeeper is familiar with mo1ds
which during warm and moist weather
grow upon all sorts of starchy materials,
such as boiled potatoes, bread, mush. etc,
as we'll as fresh canned and preserved fruits.
Molds grow from spores, which are always
floating in the air When a spore settles
on a suitable article of food it sends out
fine thread which branches out and works
its way over and into the substance At
first it seems white light gray and
hardly be seen, but soon the mold becomes
co1ored, and under a microscope looks like
a beautiful flower garden. These spores

MUST NOT MISbRANO

SHIPPERS OF APPLES WARNED
BY STATE DAIRY AND FOOD
DEPARTMENT.

HarTisonburg, Jan. S.-Shippers OF

Walter Whateles, secretary of the
Nirginia State Horticultural Society.
Mr. whateiey has forwarded the lot
ter to T. N. Thompson, of Harrison
burg. the president of the society.
In the letter Mr.. Purcell states that
misbranded fruit has been found in
cold storage in the northen part OF
Virginia by State fruit inspectors.
Both varieties of the Ben Davis ap-
pies were marked as "Gano" and
Virginia Beauties" which gave them
q higher rating than would have been
the case II correctly marked.
According to the information Sc
cured some of this marking WAS done
by the producers on their farms at
the request OF the parties to whom
the fruit was sold; other shipments
were falsely branded in cold storage
under the direction of both consignor
and consiRnee.
The matter of misbranding is of
serious Importance To horticnIturists.
Hne possible harm done locally is
not 30 great as that which would
eventually accrue TO the apple In
dustry as a whole when seizures were
made outside the State, and seizures
have been made very recently by the
Fedora! Government on the Western
coast.
In his reply To the letter Mr..
Nhsteley points out that Me vir-
gtnia Horticultural Society IL oppos-
ed to such dishonest tricks az mark
ing an inferior variety with the name
of one that Is ranked higher. but the
society has no authority to pass any
rule that would be binding or could
he enforced. He suggestes that The
General Assembly might be asked TO
enact legislation imposing a penalty
for tricks Of this kind.
