new RULES CLASS YELLOW OATS As WHITE;
TEST WEIGHTS REQUIRED ON CERTIFICATES

white oats with respect to general ap-
pearance may be more easily under
stood by persons not having access to
the official type trays the following is
suggested:
Oats which were good enough for
No. 1 white and the better quality OF
No. 2 under old grades, with respect
to general appearance (discoloration), },
will grade No. / white oats under
Federal standards. The lower quality
No. 2 white oats and practically all
standard white under old grades will,
in SO far as general appearance (dis-
coloration) is concerned, grade No. z
white oats under Federal standards.
Poor quality standard whites and No.
8 under former grading rules will
grade No. 3 white oats under Federal
standards where general appearance
(discoloration) is the grading factor.
The No. A grade remains practically
the same with respect to the factor
general appearance.
Any interested person who desires
information relating to the require
ments for general appearance OF the
! new oats grades may see the official
type trays by visiting an office OF
Federal grain supervision or any IN
spector licensed by the Department OF
Agriculture to grade oats. These Of
fees are located in all large markets.
I A person mailing sample of oats ap-
proximately 2 quarts in size in clean
cloth sack to any grain Inspector in
| the United States licensed to inspect
oats will receive an inspection certiti-
cate showing the grade of the sample
according to the Federal grades. A
small fee is charged by the inspector
for this service.

One of the features of the new Fed
eral oat grades which will become e1-
fective on June 16, 1919, is that yell
low oats are classed as white oats,
and can take any numerical grace,
subject only to general appearance or
the color requirements for each grade:
This will permit yellow oats OF good
creamy white appearance to grade as
high as No. 1, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture states. Inc
old standards in many cases pronlo-
tied yellow oats from grading higher
than No. 8.
Another feature of the grading rules
is that a statement of the test weight
per bushel is required on all inspection
certificates. Because the minimum
weight per bushel for No oats IS 81
pounds for the national standards,
which is 6 to 8 pounds lighter than
much of the oats crop produced IN the
Pacific Northwest and in certain other
intermountain and central western
areas. grain dealers and buyers in
those parts of the country will PROB.
ablv place their bids on the basis OF
higher test weights than are provided
in the Federal grades, as, for exam
nle "bid today for No. / white oats,
36 pounds or BETTER" or. mo.
white, 9S pounds or better" etc.
The Department of Agriculture
calls the attention Of farmers and
grain dealers to this provision in the
grades, since the assignment OF the
numerical grade of No. ! OF NO: z
does not always properly identify the
condition of the grain with respect to
weight, without a statement OF the
test weight per bushel.
The condition and general appear
ance is one of the important grading
factors in the new standards. Oats
to grade No. 1 must be of good color
lin the case of No. white oats, they
must be good white or creamy white
color. No. 2 oats may be slightly
stained, while No. 8 may be stalnec
or slightly weathered, and No. 4 may
he weathered or badly stained. II
has been found impossible to describe
more exactly the degree Of stain to be
allowed in each grade, but to establish

SUMMER FORAGE FOR HOGS
REDUCES PRODUCTION Cost

"Growing and fattening hogs in the
summer time without the use Of some
pasture crops is usually an uneconomi-
cal practice" says John W. Wuichet,
Department of Animal Husbandry,
Ohio State university. "a saving Of
10 to Is per cent of the total amount
Of grain and supplements may be ex-
pected through the use Of forage.
"In order to supply plenty of pas
turage all through the season, it will
be best to supply several kinds Of for
age crops if possible, as no single
crop fulflls the froage requirements
for an entire season. Among the crops
best suited as hog forage are alfalfa,
red clover, rape and soybeans. Rape
may be sown anytime. Many success
full hog raisers sow soybeans in with
their corn and "hog off" the crop"

SOLDIER VICTIMS OF
ROBBERS INCREASE
Unwary Men Longing for Com
pany Are Easy Prey for
Strong Arm Grew.

The wholesale fleeing OF soldiers.
which has been going on in and around
New York ever since the signing OF the
armistice. is increasing at an alarming
rate, according 10 those in charge of the
Red Cross rest stations in the Grand
Central and Pennsylvania terminals. At
these places where the drugged and
robbed victims go to borrow money to
get them back to camp, the thing has
become an old story"
such cases are attended TO here al
most every night" said Mrs. Margaret
f. Burlingame. head Of the rest" at
Grand Central, yesterday. Soldiers who
come to town on furlough or who are on
their way home after being discharg ed
fall an easy prey to any one wanting to
take advantage OF their desire for COM
pany. They are 80 willing to take peo-
pie on faith"
AS an example, Mrs Burlingame cited
the case OF John Brett master engineer,
an old soldier OF the Regular Army, hav-
ing served three enlistments, who came
to this city from Camp Dix. on his way
to Nottingham, England. to spend his
three months furlough with his mother.
He dropped into restaurant on Eighth
avenue near Fourteenth street and be-
came acquainted with two men. Elated
at the thught OF returning to his old
home. he divulged the fact that he had
in his pocket $500 in pay. The next
thing Brett knew he was in the hospital
with broken head. His 5000. OF course,
was gone.
This man is now in an army hospital
at Lakewood" said Mrs. Burlingame,
land has lost his furlough. We have
offered to lend him the money to get him
home in case another turlough is granted
to him. His is but a typical case There
have been many others. Sometimes they
are drugged. sometimes badly beaten,
but always robbed"
At the Pennsylvania rest" the same
stories are told.
Specific cases :" said Mrs. +. A.
Blake commanding officer at the Penn
sylvania rest" There have been so
many II has become an old story. Why,
hardly a night goes by that such thing
doesn't happen. It's getting worse than
ever. OF course, I know lots of untruth-
full stories are told by men needing
money, but i know also that many of
the stories are straight.
For instance. here's the case OF a
soldier. discharged after twenty-five
months overseas, who came to town
from camp with $500, bought ticket for
his home in Pittsburg and then fell In
with a civilian, who proceeded to give
him a good time When the soldier
recovered consciousness In a hotel the
following day he hadn't his ticket, his

has stolen since the legislative union.
