duce more vegetables, excepting
potatoes, than a family of five
can use. according to the exper-
fence Of a garden club member in
Madison Parish. La. During the
past season the woman owner

her garden of little over a tenth

had several different varieties to
determine which grew best and

Nv as the agent Of the producer.
This method approaches more
nearly the packers system of
buying. Consignment marketing
presupposes mutual confidence
and fair dealing by both producer
and dealer; otherwise it can not
succeed. The principal obstacles
in the way of this method are the
producers preference for ready
cash, his distrust of the distant
dealers, and elimination Of local
competitive buying. Unfortunate
ly many producers prefer to ac-
cept any price obtainable from
local buyers, such as general
stores, produce dealers. junk col

HOW FARMERS MAY OVER
COME OBSTACLES IN HAM
DING AND MARKET
ING HIDES.

OOuIlUIy HluCS dIlu ShluS MANI
up more than one-third of all the
hides and skins produced in the
country, and their arrival at the
tannery in a sound condition is of
vital interest to all who use leath-
err. Too often, says the United
States Department Of Agricul-
ture, the value of country hides
for leather-making is less than
that of "packer'' hides, because
less care and skill are shown in
the "take-off'' and in the curing
and marketing. In consequence Z
the hide trade discriminates be-
tween "country" and "packer
hides and skins, and pays less for
the former. In addition to being
the producer of hides and skins
the farmer is one of the chief pur-
chasers and users of the finished
products of the leather industry.
He. therefore. is directly affected
both as a seller and as buyer by
the quantity and quality of the
hides and skins and of the leather
made from them.
/ MANY of the hides and skins
used in this country, including
practically all the kid and goat
skins, ore imported. A census OF
the hides and skins used in the
United States during 1914 shows
that 80, 1885, 900 domestic hides and
80. 1853, 100 imrorted hides, vaFned
in the aggregate at $233, 522.700
were used in the United States
during that year. The wide dis
crepancv in the price Of country
hides. as compared with the value
of the finished leather products
results partly from the general In:
ferioritv of country hides and
skins due to improper handling,
as well as to the lack Of a we'll,
defined and closely followed sys-
tenn of classifying and marketing
these hides. Furthermore. after
the producer sells them the hides
must pass through numerous pro
cesses of marketing. transporta-
ton. and manufacture before he
ing converted into leather. which
in turn undercoes many add
tional treatments in IT'S CONVEX
sion into finished articles Of com
merce.
whv "packer" Hides
Have ADVANTAGE.
For the most part packer hides
and skins taken off at establish
ments where the slaughtering is
of a wholesale character, and
where the men usually are EN-
ployed exclusively for the pur-
pose Of removing hides. in GENERAL
are superior to country hides be-
cause the skins are better pre-
pared and more carefully graded

generally are free from salt stains
or EXCESS salt and pickle. The
result is a product Of uniform Sc
lection, of good pattern and trim,
and wit. few imperfections max

EX-KAISER VERY MUCH ABSORBED
 IN HIS MONEY

Amorongen, July 8 Correspon- dence of The Associated Press) ).- The former German Emperor has been discussing his financial prob lens for more than Q week with Doc tor J. Kriege, who has been in charge of the imperial estates and funds In Germany since the Hohenzollern ab- dication.
 pr. Kriege, one of the former German functIonaries of the German Foreign office, has been here in con ference with Herr Hohenzollern when the latter was not engaged in wood saving. The Marshal of the German Emperor's court, Won Gontard, also participated in the discussions.
 The former Emperor is not short of money, as he possessed a consider able amount on deposit in Holland before war began. This was added to before war began. This was added to appreciably while hostilities were in progress. During the few stirring weeks preceding his abdica- ton, William and his followers trans ferred further large sums in ready cash.
 But William is troubled as to the fate of his real estate. He possessed no fewer than fifty-five castles hunt ing boxes and country seats scattered over the Empire. The revenues of these properties are for the present

jewelry, clocks and watches, arms, powders and munitions, musical in struments and their parts, various articles of luxury, tobacco, and other materials prohibited by special law such as saccarine, distilled liquors chemical matches, etc.
 The second decree, gives the table of surtax ad valorem to be levied in addition to the specific duties on taxed merchandise.
 The rate of surtaxes varies with the nature of the products under con sideration and according to whether the general tariff or the minimum tariff is to be applied; it ranges be- tween 5 per cent. and 20 or 30 per cent. and occasionally 40 per cent.
 For example: The surtax on type writers is 10 per cent, general tariff. and 5 per cent. minimum tariff, tha | on automobiles is 20 per cent. general tariff, and 10 per cent. minimum tariff for those which are not alrea dy taxed ad valorem. For this latter the tax Is 70 per cent. It has not been increased.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-07-08

at least in the hands of the new gov ernment, which hitherto has paid from their proceeds all Herr Hohen- zollern's bills, forwarded to Berlin for settlement. These accounts have been quite formidable, as the Imperial refugee is called upon to pay for everything he consumes, as well as for his accomm odation and the up- keep of his suite, besides paying the wages of the gardeners and domestics of the Bentinck estate who render him services while wood-cutting or in the household.
 The expenses of the Dutch guard of gendarmes on duty around the castle also fall on the HohenzoIIern purse.
 The German governments inten- tions concerning the former Elm peror's private fortune cannot be gleaned here. Germans recently from the F'atherland declare there is a great deal of purely personal sym pathy for William among all classes and that it is likely he will receive a large portion of the value of what he owned. They say it is probable that most of the castles and country houses will be sold and the cash re- suit paid to Williams account, but number of them may be retained as government property to be used for the purposes of local government headquarters. This they consider an equitable arrangement which will not deprive the ex-monarch of his rights as a private citizen as, they believe would be the case if his property were confiscated.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-07-08

that case, one does not need to go any closer into the policy which was introduced with the unconditional promise to Austria; or they did not expect either Russias action or the thoroughly logical and perfectly nat ural intervention of England, and in that case they made an enormous mistake.
 As we say, no rain will wash that away.
 It cannot be got rid of by the most elaborate literary camouflage. In the most terrible of all wars America was then challenged by the ,unre- stricted U-boat madness of the eter- nal sea conquercrs, and all imagina- ble mistakes were then made-this time against the will of Herr von JaEow, who had wisely retired.
 Thus we came to Versailles.

SLAMS ROYAL ELEPHANT HUNT
Kings Order for Roundup Is Signal
for Outpouring of Natives to
See Big Show.

When a king of Siam finds that the
stock of tame elephants in the gov
eminent stables is getting low, he
sends out an edict that a royal ele-
plant hunt will take place. This or
der is received ioyfully throughout
Siam, for a royal elephant hunt is
enough of a spectacle to induce peO-
pie from all over Siam to come to
Ayutha, where the animals are to be
brought, when captured.
Days, sometimes weeks. are required
to locate and surround the herds to
be captured. Then they are skllfuIly
driven in the direction of Ayutha. SO
slowly do the great beasts travel that
four or five miles is sometimes the
daily rate of advance. When Ayutha
is reached the herd is driven into a
corral which is large walled-in court,
and here it is kept until the desirable
beasts are selected. The rest are then
allowed to wander back to their jungle
home.
The tanning of the animals retained
takes several days and is the climax
to the spectacle. Crowds gather to
hear the untamed elephants trumpet
their anger at being caught and to
watch their clumsy struggle against
mastery by the native trainers.-De-

REVIVE GENTLE ART
OF PEDESTRIANISM
Sport Has Basked in LimeIighi
at Various Times.
Fifty Years Ago Professional Walkers
Were as Celebrated as Jack Demp-
sey and Ty Cobb Are Today
Bicycle Killed Game.

A couple Of million young men of
America have in the past two years
had considerable exercise in 'hooting
it," 1t wasn't voluntary hoofng, either,
but the army is the army and when
you enter it you are sometimes re
quired to make long marches. All of
which leads to the thought that the
gentle art of pedestrianism is about
due for a great revival.
There was an almost" revival of
walking few years ago when Edward
PaySon Weston, the veteran pedeS-
trian, pulled off his celebrated trans.
continental walking stunt, but it sort
IF fizzled.
1t is forty-two years since London
witnessed the conclusion of one of
the most famous international walk
ing matches, such as were held in the
seventies and early eighties. William
Homes, one of the greatest pedes-
trians of the day, was England's
choice in the memorable contest,
while Dan OLeary represented Ire
land and America Dan had taken
part in number of walking matches
on this side of the Atlantic, and there
was great disappointment over here
when the news came that he had been
vanquished by the Britisher in the
300-mile contest OLeary is now 76
years old and has walked over 10000
miles.
In the seventies the professional
walkers were as celebrated as Jess
Willard ca and Ty Cobb are today.
They rolled in money and basked in the
limelight of popular adulation. Many
of the records set up in those days in
England and America have never
been surpassed, and, unless profess
sional walking comes into vogue
again, probably never will be.
1t was the bicycle which killed
Professionalism. When the safety was
invented it not only became a sub
stitute for shank's mares, but cycling
became the most popular sport in the
world. Walking as a sport died a
sudden death, but as long as humans
have legs there is always the hope
that pedestrianism will again come
to the fore, to the great benefit of the
human race.
