Wheat Harvest.

The wheat harvest is getting in full
swing this week. We hear some
complaint of rust, but upon the whole
it is thought the yield and quality will
surpass the average, and the acreage
in this county is far in excess Of what
is usually sown to wheat.

PLAN FOR BUILDING UP SOIL
Acid Phosphate, Limestone, Tile and
Manure Form Basis for increas-
ing Fertility.

The Ohio experiment station has
worked out during a series of years a
plan for soil building which farmers
in any state might study. AS basis
Of comparison, 1t is shown that certain
fertility standards may be adopted.
On a 160-acre farm fertility standards
as compared with results secured in
experimental work at the Ohio station
show that 16 tons Of acid phosphate
per year. a carload of limestone, mile
Of tile and the production Of 400 loads
Of manure annually would form a prof.
table basis for increasing soil fer.
tility.
This would also call for the grow
ing Of about 40 acres Of clover, as the
use Of legumes in connection with
manure, phosphorus and limestone on
drained land, produces the best re
suits. Such a plan of fertility recon.
struction is regarded as necessary be.
cause the greater part Of the soil In
Ohio has been farmed for at least fifty
years and these fertility elements must
be supplied in reasonable quantities
now, or later In very much larger
amounts, at an increased cost.

freedom from financial worry on the
backs of big producers.
1t is impossible for the average dali
ry COW Of the United States even to
approach the remarkable production
record of Duchess Skylark Ormsby.
who produced in a year 1,205.O9
pounds OF butterfat, equivalent to
three-fourths of ton Of butter. But
1t is possible for dairymen, the coun-
try over, to double the present pro-
duction of their herds. To increase
the production of the average dairy
cow from 160 to 800 pounds of but
,erfat year would not be difficult.
according to dairy experts, and would
increase net profits out Of proportion
to production costs.
This should be the aim of every
progressive dairy farmer. He should
eliminate the low producers from his
herd and feed the remainder accord
ing to known production. He should
improve the foundation stock with the
idea Of making the daughters yield as
much more milk than their dams as
possible. This practice in a few gen.
erations would greatly increase pro-
duction, decrease the cost Of feed and
add much to the profit and pleasures
Of dairy farming.

rearing of brood at appropriate times.
These factors must not be lacking at
the right times, and IL any one is omit
ted it may prevent the bees from gath
ering the crop of the following season.
These three factors do not apply equal
~ throughout the period Of relative
inactivity, but as certainly as anyone
If them Is decreased, Just so certainly
will next years crop be reduced.
In practicing cellar wintering It is
unnecessary to leave so much hohey
with the bees during the time that they
are in the cellar, and 1t Is not neces-
sary during that period to leave room
for the rearing of brood. During the
coolest part of the winter the bees
need especially protection from cold
and wind, although enough good stores
must be in the hive to keep them
through that period in good condition.
Probably large part Of the failure
of beekeepers in practicingN cellar win
tering comes from the fact that be-
fore and after the bees are In the cell
lar the important factors of stores and
breeding room have not been adequate
ly supplied. Before the bees are put
into the cellar they must have room
Tor breeding and stores in abundance,
and after they are taken out these two
factors must be present in greatly in
creased abundance.
Necessity Of Strong Colonies.
As In the case of wintering outdoors,
It is wasteful to attempt to winter
weak colonies. 1t Is difficult to set
standards of colony strength at this
season, but 1t is unwise to attempt
to winter colonies that are not strong
enough to have brood sufficient to I'LL
three or four Langstroth frames two
months before the first killing frost.
If the colonies In the apiary are not Of
the proper strength, 1t Is wise to unite
until the proper strength is reached.
1t is of the greatest Importance that
every colony have good queen in or
der that brood rearing may continue
In the fall and may then again proceed
rapidly In the spring. Usually 1t Is
best to requiem at least every two
years, but II good wintering is prac-
ticed the colonies will come out Of win
ter quarters so strong and will build
up so rapidly in the spring that the
queens will soon wear out, making It
safer to requiem every year. To get
the best results from requeening, all
young queens should be introduced 80
that they begin to lay about two
months befors the nrst killing frost.

SECURING LABOR Is
DIFFICULT PROBLEM
Maintenance of Steady Supply
Worries Stock Farmer
He 10 Compelled to Use Temporary
Help at Harvest Time Which, In
Many CAGES, Is Unreliable and
Quite Expensive.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
One Of the most serious phases of
the farm labor problem is the main
tenance of steady supply Of labor
and the interest Of the laborer In farm
operations. In both of these matters
the farmer who has little or no live
stock has a much more difficult prob
lem to solve than the one who main
tains the maximum amount Of live
stock consistent with his farm opera
lions. For example, the farmer who
devotes his entire effort to grain pro-
duction or cotton production is con-
fronted with a keen demand for labor
at the most critical period in the crop
year. He has the rush during the
planting season, which shortly Is fol-
lowed by the tremendous demands Of
harvest. Between times, especially
during the winter, this demand Is not
so urgent and he is, therefore, COM
PEELED to use temporary help (espe-
ciaily at harvest time), which, in many
cases, is unreliable and expensive.
possible the distribution Of the maxi
mum amount Of labor throughout the
year is In a much stronger position
from every standpoint than the one
who is compelled to call in large num-
bers Of temporary helpers at critical
times.
Live stock production is a year
round proposition and therefore makes
possible such a distribution Of labor.
Furthermore, live stock are interest
Ing to nearly all human beings. There
Is much more to interest the average
man In watching the growth Of the
young animals or the fattening of feed
ers, and much less drudgery, even In
feeding operations, than there is In the
filling OF the soil and the cultivation
OF the crops. Beautiful as growing
crops unquestlonably are, and neces-
sary as they are to the maintenance of
live stock, the farm which only has
growing crops lacks for most people
the vital thing which is necessary to
make country life attractive.
Many farmers recognize the appeal
which animals have for the average
man and cater to this inhandline their
employees. For example, there are
cases where the farm owner gives the
labor~r share In the animal produces

Cars of fruit and vegetables are
often dumped at large market termi-
nails but persons who witness this pro-
ceeding should not conclude that this
practice Is uneconomic or done to
keep up prices, according to men in
the bureau of markets, United States
department Of agriculture. The whole
sale dealer Is not In position to re-
sort and repack damaged produce and
often enough decay Is present to rem
der the produce unstable In its orig
inal container or bulk shipment.
Sometimes hucksters do go over the
damaged cars and salvage a limited
amount of food. More often, however,
the labor cost Of such salvage work is
greater than the value of the products
saved.
Losses May start on Farm.
There are many causes for loss of
perishable foods between the farm
field and the market. Some of these
causes go back to the time crops are
harvested. Take potatoes, for instance,
which are injured in digging. Unless
these injured potatoes are sorted out
and not packed with the good pota-
toes, rot may develop in the shipment
and spread rapidly to other potatoes,
especially IL the temperature In the
car is favorable for rot to develop.
Another source of great loss in per-
lshables is found in lack of care in
loading. The packages must be spaced
to permit air circulation and also
braced to prevent shifting. Tempera.
ture can not be controlled In loads
packed solid without any air spaces
between the containers, while braclng
must be carefully done or packages
arrive containing only part of their
original contents.

Bees In the more northern parts of
the United States for many years have
been placed by some Of the best bee
keepers In cellars or special reposi-
tories during the coolest parts of the
winter. There has been growing feel
Ing. however. that IL outdoor winter
Ing is practicable, IN most cases 1t
gives better results. and there has been
decided change from cellar wintering
to outdoor wintering within the past
decade. The difficulty seems to be
that the methods of cellar wintering
practiced have not been satisfactory
and 1t seems probable that if as much
attention had been given to the per-
lection of the methods of cellar win
tering MS has been given to an improve
ment of the methods of outdoor winter
Ing, there would not have been as great
a change to the outdoor methods as
has taken place.
The placing Of bees in a cellar Is
only another way Of putting insulation
about the hives, the only difference
being that in the cellar all of the hives
are protected alike and the protection
is placed about the apiary instead of
around hives in groups or singly. 1t
follows that the principles which APP
ply to successful outdoor wintering
apply equally 10 the protection of the

his crop was free from disease. Prop

shipments, however, often deteriorate
rapidly after being unloaded and must
be handled quickly and consumed be-

Through the food products inspec-
ton service of the department of agri-
culture, the facts concerning losses
through plant diseases developed in
transit are being studied and labora-
tories have been established at New
York and Chicago to work on these
diseases. Plant pathologists now re-
