GOOD QUALITIES OF sILAGE
Makes Healthier Cows Because OF its
Favorable Effect Upon DIoes-
tive System.

One peculiar inquiry Is repeated
year after year. Does sllage cause
tuberculosis? OF course not. A man
eating sauerkraut Is In just as much
danger Of contracting tuberculosis as
COW Is from eating silage. Teeth
falling out, stomachs ruined, tuber-
culosis, and many other vaporings
have been laid to silage, but like hol-
low tail. they are only the progeny of
ignorance. Silage makes healthier
cows because Of its favorable effect
upon the digestive system. and at the
same time 1t permits those cows to
produce milk at lower cost.

HOW TO USE RAW

enforcement to Stable Ma
nure or Flowing Under.
PROFITABLE AS PLANT FOOD
When Immediate Results Are Desired
Acid Phosphate Is Preferable
Raw Rock Is Used as Absorb
ent In Dairy Barns.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
AS cheap and satisfactory source
Of phosphoric acid, raw rock ph0s-
phate merits extensive use on farms
In localities where the material Is
available. Nowadays when all COM
nercial fertilizers are abnormally ex-
pensive is the time to make liberal use
of raw rock as reinforcement Of
stable manure, as a material to be dis
tributed and plowed under with green
cover crops and as profitable plant
food for direct application to soils
that are rich in organic matter.
The relative unpopularity Of raw
rock phosphate in the past has result
ed from incomplete and unsatisfactory
experimental work. Recently the farm
use of raw rock has expanded to Oh
600 tons annually, worth approximate
ly $75O,OOO.
OF course when immediate results
are desired, the more costly acid phos-
phate is preferable as it's plant food
Is readily soluble and suitable for rush
order use. Raw rock phosphate, al
though 1t contains twice as much phos-
phoric acid as the average acid phos-
phate, slowly releases It's stores Of
food for crop use. 1t costs about $3.50

more or less at random, but 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-

pens to bring about a material reduc-
ton of the crop In the South or In
any large potato7growing section of
the North, the wide-awake northern
grower is in position to make money
by putting in late acreage and top
dressing 1t. The Texas onion grower,
before time for planting, takes into
consideration the quantity Of old
northern stock in storage and the rate
at which 1t is going to market.
Worth $500 to This Grower.
In a score of lines the same system
Is being followed. Take, for illustra-
ton, the case Of grower Of hothouse
lettuce in the neighborhood of one of
the large eastern cities. Ordinarily he
grows to meet fairly late market,
after the Florida and South Carolina
crops are off. But If he receives news
Of destructive freeze in the South.
The L'Anse sentinel., 1919-04-18

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
hOthouse lettuce says that the govern
ment crop and market reporting SER
vice is worth $500 year to him in
that way.
Here is another concrete illustra-
tion: During the past season there
was short crop of potatoes in Vir'
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 little ear
lier than usual, thus not only obtain
ing better prices, but filling in a period
when there would have been otherwise
shortage of new potatoes.
Shows Market Advantages.
The service indicates, to the grower
who uses it intelligently. temporary
and local market advantages. A city
that this week Is an extremely poor
market for 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-
tion 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.

EFFECT OF WEATHER
CONDITIONS Is felt
One Market May Go Up While An
other Goes Opposite Way.
Crop and Market Service Of Depart
ment Of Agriculture Keeps Both
Shipper and Consumer Post
ed on Situation.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Any given weather conditi0n-cold,
Yain 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 II is in producing sec
tions. 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 a 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
crop conditions, keeps both the ship
per and the consumer posted as to
such conditions and. in a general way,
works to smooth out such discrep-
ancies.

year in obtaining good seed corn In
that locality, as elsewhere, but by the
aid Of former county agent and the

TO STORE PERISHABLE FOODS
Every Farm Homo Should Have Cellar,
storehouse and Refrigerator to
Care for Surplua

Farmers lose much every year be-
cause their facilities for storing per-
ishable foods are poor. Every farm
home should have a cellar, storehouse
and refrigerator so the surplus foods
may be saved till such time as they
may be consumed. The fact that pro-
ducers have inadequate facilities for
saving perlshable products gives specu-
lators advantages.

when, for the commodity
under consideration. prices are
holding fairly from day to day
and from week to week, with the
values more prompt than the de-
clines and values gaining only
a few cents when compared with
the week or fortnight before.
The market Is STRONG
when the advances are fairly
sharp and the declines slight and
quickly overcome.
The market Is WEAK
when the declines are sharp
and persistent, continually reach
ing low points and making only
slight and short recoveries. The
degree of weakness is measured
by the frequency and extent Of
such movements.
The market is DRAGGING
when prices sag almost imper-
ceptibly, simply falling a little
short of the previous top quota
tions from time to time so that
the decline is scarcely noticeable
except by comparison with the
level Of the previous week or
month.
Reports of the condition Of the
crop, the shipments, the weather,
are factors in determining what
may be expected to follow a
firm, strong, weak. or dragging

duce grower studies all Of these

a ton In carload lots now at the mines.
For practical results, 1t is essential
that the raw rock be finely ground to
the extent that 90 per cent of the ma
terial will pass through sieve having
100 meshes to the linear inch.
How to Spread.
Where the raw rock phosphate Is
used as reinforcement for stable
manure, 1t may be spread at the rate
Of so to 60 pounds over each ton of
manure as 1t is hauled from the barn
or stable yard to the fields. A much
better practice, however, is to compost
the rock with the manure for a period
Of a month or more before spreading
Oh the fields. On account of Its ad-
mIrable absorptive qualities the raw
rock is used as an absorbent in dairy
stables. The common practice Is to
Spreadi about pint Of the material
laily behind each COW in the stable.
Where a green cover crop. such as
pwpens or soy beans, Is to be turned
cnder, 1t Is valuable practice to
spread about 1000 pounds of raw-rock
phosphate an acre over the green stuff
before the plowing Is begun. Products
are developed during the decomposi-
ton Of the organic matter which are
efficient in llberating the plant food
that is slowly available In the raw
rock. Where the raw-rock phosphate
is applied In half-ton doses an acre to
a soil that is very rich In organic mat
ter the same beneficial results are
slowly notable as obtained where the
fertilizer Is turned under with the
green crop.
Best Form Of Acid.
The presence Of decnylng organic
matter In the soil increases the effec-
tiveness Of raw. ground rock phos-
pilates due probably both to greater
bacterial activity and the higher con-
tent of carbon dioxide In such soils.
From similar standpoint. the effec-
tiveness of raw rock phosphate Is usu-
ally increased after remaining In the
soil for year or more. Most crops
respond more quickly to applications
of acid phosphate than to bone. basic
Stag or raw-rock phosphate. Accord
ingly. where the early stimulation and
quick maturity OF the crop nre the
main considerations, acid phosphate is
probably the best form of phosphorlc
acid to apply.
The question of whether increases
In yield ordinarily can be produced
more economically by applications Of
soluble or relatively insoluble phos-
pilates, must be considered in meas
ure an individual problem for each
farmer, since 1t depends on a number
Of factors of which the most important
are the nature Of the soil. the crop
system employed, the price Of the va
rious phosphates IN each particular
locality and the length Of the growing
