I Better Marketing.

Last year the production of perish
ables is estimated to have been 80 per
cent greater than normal. Notwith-
standing the large output, the market
ing difficulties were relatively less
than in former years because of the
effective efforts of the people through
out the country, assisted by federal
and state agencies, to conserve these
products for future use by canning,
preserving, picking and drying. The
department is again actively assisting
In the conservation of perishables. as
it did last summer, and is able to rem
der more effective assistance with its
largely increased staff. More effective
assistance also is being rendered in
the marketing of perishable products
through the greatly extended daily
market news service of the bureau of
markets and the weekly reports of
truck crop production prepared by the
bureau of crop estimates.

Potatoes.

The normal acreage of Irish and
sweet potatoes should be maintained
in 1918, Notwithstanding the large
crops of 1917.
This is especially true IN view of
the necessity of releasing more wheat
for export. Potatoes, both Irish and
sweet, are the most popular and most
generally used of the perishable staple
crops. The department, through its
extension and publication activities, is
encouraging their greater use, espe-
cially the use of the Irish potato as a
partial substitute for wheat In bread
The yield per acre can be made
more certain by greater attention to
the selection Of disease-free potatoes
OF good varieties, by treatment of seed
potatoes Immediately before planting,
and by the use Of sprays to prevent
loss from blight.

Spread of War Garden Movement
Is Reported From Every
Section of Country.
ADDS MUCH TO POCKETBO0K
Examples of Progress of Home, Chill

dictate They Have Come to Stay
Some of the Advantages.

War gardens as a whole, including
dens, are more numerous and far more
productive this year than last, accord
ing to the department of agriculture
This is the consensus of opinion of
those who have been working on the
garden problem, and is based on
agents, and upon the observations of
it's specialists throughout the country.
While it is reported that seedsmen
sold less seed to home gardeners this
year than they did last, this does not
mean that there are less gardens or
smaller paintings. Amateurs learned
last year that they bought too much
seed. Some of this seed was I'M
doubtedly kept over, and many gar
deners saved seed from last years
crop for planting this season. A few
gardeners going to work in 1917 with
more enthusiasm than experience de-
cided not to plant this year, but
great many more who did not make
gardens last year made them this
season.
Estimates Not Reliable.
Estimates of the number of gardens
vary, and there are no figures other
than conjectures. Department garden
specialists say that an estimate of TO-
100000 home gardens is conservative,
but admit that this figure represents
only good guess.
Specific examples show how the gar
den movement has grown. Before the
war, according TO the garden leader of
the District of Columbia, there were
not more than 5000 gardens in the
federal district which contains the
capital of the country. Now there are
$4,000, including school gardens, with
a marked increase in 1918 over 1917.
Chicago has $4,000 gardens, 100000
If which are home gardens. 10000 chill

'ounty agent of Oswego county, New
York, maintains that the majority OF
armers in his county have not had
'ardens and that much of the effort
oward more and better home gardens
hould be expended on the farmer
ather than on the city man.
In the South last year more than
$4,000 new gardens were started
through the efforts of farm demonstra-

WAGES Low; NO BENEFITS;
RULES WISCONSIN BOARD

At a hearing before the Wisconsin
industrial commission at Madison
this week, it was shown that parents
could. not receive compensation for
the death of a girl employed in a.
large store in this state, because she
was not earning, at the time of her
death, sufficient money, even at the
end of five years employment, to pay
her own way.
Five years ago the girl started to
work and at the end of that time
although she was one of the oldest
employees in the store, she was get
ting just IS week.
Under the state compensation act
the amount of an award depends upon
whether a person injured or killed was
helping to support a home. Five
years of service show that that girl
had not yet been able to earn a liv-

LAKE CARR|E RS
ADVANCE WAGES
Determine Matter, Prussian-|ike
Without Comforting With
Seamen.

It is announced this week that the
committee appointed by the directors
of the Lake Carriers association to
fix a scale of wages has recommended
that a general advance of from 81 to
$40 a month be made to seamen, ef-
fective Aug. 1. The increase will be
appreciated by the seamen, although
they have had no voice in determin-
ing what their wages should be.
The Lake Carriers still cling to the
Prussian way of doing things. Their
methods in dealing with labor are
wholly autocratic. If they were in
touch with present day conditions
they would meet the wage situation
in the democratic spirit and deal di-
their seamen in a fair and square man
ner.
