PREFER LONG, SMOOTH CORN
Nebraska Farmers Believe That Kind
of Ear Will Stand More Grief
Than Other Types.

Over a large part of Nebraska they
corn with along, smooth ear will ordi-
narily stand more grief and yield more
than corn of the so-called show type.
The Nebraska station has four years
Of experimenting which indicates that
the large, rough type of ear yields an
average of 81 bushels to the acre; the
short, rough, 81 bushels; the short,
smooth, 81 bushels, and the long, slim,
smooth, SO bushels. For some reason
corn with long, slim, smooth ears that
tics, stands trouble better than the
more fancy-looking corn of central
Iowa and Illinois.

age decay of all commodities was 11.S
per cent. In lat of these shipments
the temperature of the load on arrival
was found to vary from 40 to rs de-
grees Fahrenheit, averaging SO de-

cars of peaches with average decay

Decay on arrival does not include
all the deterioration, according to in"
vestigators, because many shipments
showing a small percentage of decay
arrive overripe and soft, owing to i'm
perfect refrigeration, and these ship
ments deteriorate rapidly while in the
hands of dealers and consumers. But

enormous loss of food. If the average
of 11.S per cent decay shown on
shipments at Chicago, Cincinnati and
Pittsburgh last year held at other mar
kets, 1t would mean an annual loss of
about 1920 carloads destroyed In
transit, or about 1,1S0,000000 pounds
of fruit and vegetables. This loss is
only in shipments moving under refrig-

which are filed with Ice before the
car is loaded. There Is passage un-
der and around this ice bunker and its
insulated wall out to the floor of the
car. Air, cooled by the ice, is heavier
than warm air, and travels downward
and out along the floor of the car, dis
placing the warm air above it and thus
cooling the load. Raising the load on
open floor racks helps distribute the
cold air from the ice bunkers and in

essary to protect the produce from

WAY TO SAVE FOOD

prepared by the United States De-
partment OF Agricultural
About 100000 carloads OF
fruit and vegetables are shipped
to market every year in refrig-
orator cars.
The average loss on these
shipments from decay is esti-
mated at 11.8 per cent, or a
total of 1920 carloads-about
1,1s0,OO0,0O0 pounds of food.
These figures do not include
losses on cars shipped without
ice or with insufficient ventila-
ton, among which there is also
heavy loss of fruits and vege-
tables.
Improved refrigerator cars,
packing. loading, and bracing
would reduce these losses, &C

For every thousand persons in the
United States there is at least enc re-
frIgerator car loaded with food prod-'
nets, rolling along the rails. These
cars carry billions Of pounds, and more
than three-fourths Of them haul fruits
and vegetables. Much of this produce
is highly perishable, and must be
moved quickly, while temperatures are
kept down by the use of ice.
Unless one is given to travelling, his
breakfast fruit or dinner salad is like
ly to have covered more miles in trip
of days than he has in as many
months, and all the way from field TO
table perishable fruits and vegetables
must be watched over and cared for
by group of workers who are as busy
as a mother travelling with a baby in
her arms.
Sometimes refrigerator cars arrive
at markets with their fruit or vege-
tables damaged by heat or shifting Of
loads through faulty containers, or dis
eases and rots developing during
transit. This means not only a loss
Of foodstuffs, but increased prices for
the sound produce that arrives on the
market-losses that in the long run
must be borne by wholesaler, retailer,
producer and consumer. This itself is
serious enough, but, according to the
bureau Of markets of the United States
department of agriculture there Is
present shortage of refrigerator
cars In this country, and the more
cars that bring damaged produce
to market the fewer available cars
there are to carry perishable food to
the cities.
What Can Be Done About TT
If, and this is where science steps
in. the present equipment of refrigera-
tor cars should be modernized, and If
more care were taken in loading, brac-
ing and hauling perishables in these
modernized cars, losses of food would
be reduced and our scanty supply Of
refrigerator cars made to carry more
actual food to market.
At one large market last July 127
cars of peaches were inspected by the
bureau of markets. Most of these cars
were ain trouble" as the inspectors
say. and they represented 81 per cent
of the total July arrivals at that mar
ket. Although brown rot was bad
this year among peaches, and account
ed for much loss and sales of as low
as ten cents crate for rotted fruit
1t Is pointed out by refrigerator car
men that some of this loss is due to
poor refrigeration which could be
avoided by proper construction of cars
and better loading and handling meth

for the floor ends and sides Of the car
is also important and air spaces must
be provided between the rows of con-
tainers so that all the load will be kept
cool. All these problems and a stand

culture. Some of these improved cars

results.
