A Two-Year Result

Two years have been spent in perfecting this model. Many specialists employed to aid. During most of that time the Mitchell factory de- voted itself to work. So the designers of this new-type car had unique opportunity.
 Almost every detail shows important changes. Rear axle strength is increased 50 per frame strength 50 cent brake efficiency 75 per cent gear strenqth 25 cent, crank shaft strength 35 per cent, and on.
 Weight has been added. Full 75 per cent has been added to endurance. Yet fuel cost has been reduced 25 per cent
 great body designer has added 20 per cent to the beauty, the finish and comfort.

TELLS GOOD ROADS NEEDS
Farm and Fireside Explains Best
Plan for Oval Surfaee-ShouId
Be Flat as Possible.

Everybody agrees that the surface
Of a road must be oval in its con-
tour" says Farm and Fireside, 'Fbut
not all understand that this oval
ought to be as fiat as the character
of the road material and the lay of
the land will permit. With brick or
concrete construction the oval may
be very fat, because the traffic makes
no ruts to carry the water lengthwise
OF the road, nor does the pavement
soften and develop depressions when
kept in contact with water.
But broken stone (waterbound
macadam), being susceptible to pene-
tration by water, and subject to great
damage If frozen while soaked, must
be given a higher oval; and for gravel
roads a still sleeper pitch is de
handed.
GAS for earth roads, the steepness
must be governed by the combined
influence OF a number Of factors.
Perhaps the leading factor is the
quality OF the earth in each particu-
lar case. And next might be placed
the presence or absence Of 'seepS' or
'spouts'; while another OF these vital
factors would be the longitudinal
pitch Of the highway"

The sitting hen should have a clean,
sanitary nest. free from yermin and
filth, with plenty OF room for her work.
A time-saving plan is to set hens
In pairs, and giving the chicks Matched
front both to one hen. allowing the
other hen to go back to laying.
Eggs for Matching should be care
fully selected, well-formed, with good
shells, and kept in a temperature Of

The chick worth having is the chick
that releases itself from the shell with
yigor, life and vitality; that comes

he promptly regulates his seed beds
and moisture in such way as materi-
ally to advance the maturity OF his
crop to take advantage of the shortage
soon to occur. One such grower OF
dollhouse lettuce says that the govern
ment crop and market reporting ser
vice is worth $500 a year to him in
that way.
Here is another concrete iIIustra-
ton: During the past season there
was a short crop of potatoes in V1r-
ginia and Maryland. The crop and
market reporting service informed po-
tato growers over the country OF that
fact in time for them to take advan-
tage Of it. AS a result, some southern
growers held their potatoes for a few
weeks, while some northern growers
dug and marketed theirs a little ear
ing better prices, but filling in a period
when there would have been otherwise
a shortage of new potatoes.
Shows Market Advantages.
The service indicates, to the grower
who uses it inteIIigently, temporary
and local market advantages. A city
that this week is an extremely poor
market for a particular commodity
may be the best market for that COM
modify next week. The grower who
has followed the reports and correctly
interpreted conditions is thus in posi-
ton to ship in such way as to get his
produce on that market at the begin
ming Of better prices.
The results are beneficial alike to
producer and consumer. The producer
takes advantage of the market where
prices are best. The consumer has a
more regular supply and usually with
out extreme fluctuations in prices. OF
course, such application of benefits Is
not yet universal. The service is COM
paratively new and many people have
not yet learned to avail themselves Of
it. However, the 80 permanent branch
Offices of the bureau OF markets and
the numerous temporary stations in
shipping areas bring within reach Of
practically all shippers the informa-
ton furnished in the form OF daily
market bulletins, weekly market re-
views and monthly news articles.

ANY given weather cOnditiOn-cold,
rain or heat-may affect one market
one way and another market in the
directly opposite way. A period Of
rainy weather, for instance, might
put peach prices away up in New York
or Chicago and away down in Atlanta
or Augusta. The effect of any par
ticular weather condition is likely to
be different in the big consuming mar
ket from what it is in producing sec
lions. In the case cited, the rain
might delay gathering. Then at the
beginning of fair weather, great guam
titles of more or less damaged peaches
would come in at once, instead Of be-
ing distributed over period of weeks,
and prices would go down sharply.
at the same time, a shortage would
have been caused in some Of the large
cities and prices would go up. Anoth-
er set of conditions might reverse the
process, making prices high in pro-
ducing sections and relatively low at
consuming markets The crop and
market reporting service Of the United
States department of agriculture, car
rying full information on weather and

per and the consumer posted as to
such conditions and, in a general way,
works to smooth out such discrep-

When oats cost no more than half

of the University of Illinois recon-
mends they can be fed profitabIy to
hogs.
Hogs are very sensitive to wind
and cold at night and will suffer just

The best results from feeding skim
milk to pigs are obtained when about
three pounds of it are fed for each
pound of grain.

better in the spring and gain quicker
and faster than those fed dry rough

Glover is an ideal forage for pigs,

Ensilage is good stuff to have, but
it is not an all-around feed. Some hay

Shaping ones course by faith rather
than by sight is doubtless good prac-
tice, spiritually speaking, but produce
growers used to find it mighty dis
astrous in business. OF course, some
Of them are still following the faith
system OF growing and marketing, be-
cause they have not seen fit to use the
eyes furnished them by the govern
ment in the crop and market reporting
service of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture. These are still
planting, gathering, and marketing
more or less at random, but a con-
stantly increasing number are looking
around and ahead, seeing what other
sections are doing, finding where any
shortage or surplus is likely to be pro-
duced, ascertaining special advantages
or disadvantages in consuming centers,
and generally getting forecast Of the
market from crop and other conditions
the country over.
The farsighted southern potato
grower no longer plants blindly or by
rOte. He takes into account the vol
ume and probable movement of the
northern crop and the quantity OF the
old crop likely to come over till spring.
The northern grower watches the de-
velopment of the southern crop. If
the southern acreage is reduced, if
there are late freezes, if anything hap
pens to bring about a material reduc-
ton of the crop in the South or in
any large potato-g growing section Of
the North, the wide-awake northern
grower is in position to make money
by putting in a late acreage and top
dressing it. The Texas onion grower,
before time for planting, takes into
consideration the quantity of old
northern stock in storage and the rate
at which it is going to market.

their nests before there is any dam
ger of the eggs chilling. but il they
do not go back in half an hour in or
binary weather, they should be put on
the nest. Where a large number of
sitterS are kept in one room 1t Is adj
visable to let them off in groups of
from four TO six at time. The eggs
and nests should be examined and
cleaned, removing all broken eggs and
washing those that are sOiled; IN the
after case the sOiled nesting material
should be removed and clean straw
added. Nests containing broken eggs
that the hen is allowed to sit on soon
become infested with mites and lice,
which cause the hens to become I'M
easy and leave the nest, often causing
the loss of valuable sittings of eggs
In mite-infested nests, the hen, If fast
ened in. will often be found standing
over rather than sitting on the eggs.
Many eggs that are laid in the late
winter and early spring are infertile.
For this reason Il is advisable to set
several hens at the same time. After
the eggs have been under the hens
from five to seven days, the time de-
pending somewhat on the color and
thickness of the shells white-shelled
eggs being easier to test than those
having brown shells-they should be
tested, the infertile eggs and dead
germs removed, and the fertile eggs
out back under the hen. In this way it is
often possible to qut all the eggs that
several hens originally started to sit
on under fewer hens and reset the
others. For example, 80 eggs are set
under three hens at the same time, ten
under each. At the end of seven days
we find on testing the eggs from all
the hens that ten are infertile, which
leaves US 20 eggs to reset, which we
do by putting them under two hens,
and have the remaining hen sit over
again after she has set only seven
days In this way considerable time
can be saved in ones Matching Oper-
atoms.

PATCHING OFTEN NEGLECTED.
Two Ruts Caused to Form Where
There Was but One Before
Work When Road Is Wet.

Patching is usually neglected or
done In such q way as to cause two
ruts to form where there was but one
before. That is the invariable result
Of filling a rut too full. This work
should always be done when the road
is wet, preferably when the water is
still standing in every little hollow on
the road surface, so that the workmen
can just see where to place the new
gravel and about how much is needed.
Unless the rut is a very large one,
it is always best to shovel the gravel
from the wagon into it, rather than to
raise a sidebOard and attempt to dump
a part Of the load.
