WHO GOT the MONEY"
Not the Produce Dealer, But the
Business Farmer.
(By VIM. A. schoenfeld, Division of
Extension, U. of TT

(By VIM. A. Schoenfeld, Division OF
Extension, U. of To
When your Irish potato crop is sold,
and you compare the price received
from your local merchant or dealer in
farm produce with that paid by the
consumer, you naturally wonder where
the difference in price went to; in 9TH
er words, who Got the Money!" You
can get some of this money by doing
as this farmer did.
Mr.. John Doe, who is a farmer near
Chattanooga, Tennessee, got a nice
portion of the difference just mention
ed by grading his four hundred bushel
potato crop before he offered it for
sale. At the time he marketed his
crop, ungraded potatoes were selling
Tor hfty-five cents, graded for seventy
nVe, and culls for forty-fve cents
bushel in Chattanooga. Ungraded po-
tatoes are usually field run stock"
Graded potatoes are medium in size,
smooth, clean and free from scab.
Culls are the potatoes left after field
run" stock has been graded
Using the figures just given, what
did Mr.. Doe get for the extra trouble
OF grading his potatoes? The grading,
by the way, was done on days when
field work was out of the question, be-
cause of bad weather, hence did not
interfere with crop production
-Four hundred bushels of field run"
potatoes were graded into BAT bushels
OF good standard potatoes, and SO
bushels of culls
BAT blu. graded potatoes at 75c
per pu. ................... S26O.25
80 bu Gull potatoes at 45c per
bu. Observation-Disclosures. 1885
Total price received for 400
Du. crop ................ $2S4.lO
Now, if Mr.. Doe had simply market
ed his potatoes in field run" condi-
ton, /. e., ungraded, he would have re-
ceived (400 blu. ungraded potatoes at
55c per BIZ, 1920.
This makes difference of $64.10 in
his favor.
Assuming that it took him three
days at one dollar day, then three
days labor sorting potatoes at 81 per
day, SO.
If the gross profit for grading
was .................. $b4.l0
And the labor charge ......... 800
n
If Mr.. Doe had not sorted these po-
tatoes, then he would have received
$64.10 less for his crop.
The question would then be, Who |
got the money!" Either the consumer
would have paid less for the ungraded |
potatoes or the dealer would have |
graded the potatoes himself In that |
case the dealer would have made the |
profit of $6410.
There are lessons to be learned from |
Mr.. Does experience, namely:
1. He utilized idle hours on his farm
to his financial gain.
2. He earned nice profit on his |
marketing ability.
8. He learned that there were other
ways in increasing farm profits with
out increasing his crop yields.
4. He learned that the market is
willing TO pay literally for standard
lied farm products.
The University of Tennessee,
through it's Division Of Extension,
stands ready to assist all legitimate
seeking to improve the
market standards of the Tennessee
farm products.

Only two Of the financial statements

Practically every candidate in this

IDENOUNCE GLOVER DEAL
Many Conferences Of Coun-

Held Yesterday.
'DEN0UNCE GLOVER DEAL

Not all the people who come to
town yesterday went TO the circus.
Notable among those who did not were
Democratic politicians from the coun.
try districts who found more interest.
ing matters to occupy their minds al.
most as soon as they landed. 1t was,
IN fact, veritable field day for the
Democrats and impromptu conferen.
ces were held on tho street corners. in
cigar stores and n tina consultation
rooms of prominent Democratic law
yers.
1t Is a fact of considerable signih.
cance that most OF these conferences
were not love feasts either. Some Of
them were just the opposite. and not 3
few Of the country district leaders left
the city yesterday afternoon and even.
ing angry and threatening to, make
trouble for the machine that dominates
the Democratic party In this country.
The storm center was the alleged
effort of the Democratic gang leaders
4 to- accomplish the nomination OF A. M.
Glover for sheriff by trade which
would involve the defeat Of James w.
Davis. the present assessor OF the
county. who is a candidate for renomi-
nation and election. There are few
Democrats in the country more popu.
lar than Davis and his friends hotly
resent what one of them yesterday
called the dirty DEAL"
Now that their plans have become
public the bosses may have some trou-
BILE In putting the deal through. Da.
Wis friends are thoroughly aroused
and SO are the friends of Win T.
Smith. OF Warrington. who is Glover's
: oponent for the Democratic nomina.
tion for sheriff. Smith was one of the
Democratic politicians who came to
town yesterday and he met a lot of
friends from all over the county.
Many OF them assured him that they
would vote for him no matter what
inducements the bosses held out In
return for support Of Glover.

FINAL i \ HEARING j
IN THE FA|RNONT
CHARTER CASE
1t Will Be Held Tomorrow
Before tile Supreme
Court.

The final hearing OF the Fairmont
Charter case will be held tomorrow in
the supreme court Of West Virginia.
The style of this case is Reuben An.
derson against Anthony Bowen and
others. The Republican committee
representing the Republican party of
Fairmont were also allowed to become
parties TO the rrigtnal suit and this
final appeal Is on the plea OF this com.
mittee.
The case as originally heard in the
circuit court before Judge Raymond
was decided in favor of the plaintiff.
who being used as an agent of the
Democratic party brought suit to
prevent the Fairmont city officials
from allowing the new Charter to 60
into effect. The application OF the Re.
publican city committee to be allowed
to become parties to the suit was re.
fused BY Judge Raymond at the first
hearing. An appeal to the Supreme
court the case was certified back to
the circuit court for a new trial grant.
ing permission to the Republican party
representatives to file their answer to
the bill of the plaintiff and to be con.
sidered as parties to the suit. The
case however was again won by the
plaintiff at the second hearing.
The present appeal is on the general
merits Of the case and the Supreme
court will consider all the evidence
as hown in the transcript Of the case
and theif decision will be final. The
present appeal was taken by the de.
fendant appellants who are parties to
the suit.
The local attorneys who represent
the defendant appellants are John w.
Mason, Jr.. W. s. Mereith and Allison
s. Fleming. These men have prepared
brief of their case and this will be
submitted to the court tomorrow. AS
the attorneys are only allowed thirty
minutes for their argument the local
attorneys likely will not go to Char.

THREE petitions
FROM GRANT. Al .D]|ST
County Court Will Consider
Them as An Applica-
.. ton.

Two petitions from the Grant dis.
trict voters were received today by
the county court asking for new
special election for bond issue to be
used for the construction Of good
roads. The two petitions together
with third which has been circulated
in Grant district will be considered
as one petition as the text on wording
Of each is the same. At late hour
this afternoon. the third petition had
not been presented and no official ac.
ton will be taken by the court until
the third one Is received. as the two
that arc at present in their posses.
sion contain less than the requiied
number of voters aud freeholders. At
least fifty names Of taxpayers and vot.
ers must be appended to petitions of
this nature before the court can act
upon them.
The new petitions specify practi.
cally the same roads to be built as
were named in the old petition S'ith
the difference that the kind Of road
under the new petition Is to be all
Of macadam Of fourteen and twelve
foot widths except. two short sections
leading from the Hunsaker bridge and
from the town of Monongah which are
to be built Of brick. The sum to be
raised by the bond issue is the same
as under the former petition being
$4,000. The petition specifies tat any
money remaining after the specified
roads are built Is to be used proper.
ttonately in extending the various sec.
tions that are now specified.
A delegation OF citizens from the
town Of Millersville appeared before
the court this morning and asked that
the road through their village be grad
ed for a distance Of about 500 feet.
The citizens OF this. community, which
Is Just across the river from the Mo.
nongah Glass company's plant at
Twelfth street, have raised a subscrlp.
tion to build a sidewalk through their
town and are waiting until the road
is graded and repaired SO that the
proper location Of the walk can be
determined. The members Of the court
went out at noon hcur and :iewed
the road, and the work of putting It
In shape so that the walk can be built
will likely be begun as early as pos.
sible. .r....-6r.
Several applications for pauper al.
lowances were considered by the court
today and increases. will likely. be
granted in several instances. t
