EXHAUSTIVE TESTS ARE BASIS

The scientific experiment is a slow pro- cess, but it is the best way in the world to get facts.
 The slowness of it is one of the reasons why the farmer, even though he is a sci enlist, cannot do the experiments for himself He has not the time to devote to them. Then, sometimes a great many experiments have to be tried before one is made that produces the desired results. The f7rner cannot afford the numerous experin g that may not get satisfac- tory resu. ror the sake of the one that does.
 Here is an Illustration of the kind of experiment that, Irc,1 the standpoint of the length of time it tal&s, no farmer could undertake for himself as busi- ness proposition. The United States de- partment of agriculture wanted to know whether the milking tendency in beef cat tie is transmitted mainly by the dams through the male line of descent, and to what extent the milk-giving function of the darn influences the beef character of the progeny. An experiment to determine those facts was begun in 1915. 1t will rot be completed until 1895. But at the end of that 20-year period the department of agriculture will know those facts, and every farmer in the United States may KilOW lHeul Just dof lict OuSHiy 1o IL he had devoted 20 years of his own life to working them out.
 This is one of the experiments of the bureau of animal industry, and, like all the experiments of that bureau. has az lrs object the improvement of live stock. But it has been repeatedly proved that work for the improvement of hve stock always has an indirect, and frequently a direct, beneficial effect on human beings. Here is an illustration of direct benefit: Horses sometimes die of what is known as for age poisoning. The bureau of animal industry began experiments to determine the cause of that poisoning. The bacillus botulinus was incriminated. Experi- merts were begun to develop a serum that ould protect against botulinus poison ing A sheep was finally immunized and a quantity of serum made from it's blcod. Then, one day, word came to the bureau that little girl had contracted botulinus poisoning from ripe olives and as dying, The serum-prepared win the Idea of protecting horses against for age poison--was rushed from Washington to New York, and the little girls life was saved. Cases of, botulnus poisoning from canned goods and other foods, have frequently caused the death of entire families. and there has previously been no relief for it.
 Experiments prove theories or disprove them, and one may be just as significant as the other. There has long been a theory that a COW would give more milk if mixed at regular times every day than if milked irregularly. The depart ment of agriculture tried it out on a scale sufficiently large to make certain

Farming by rule of thumb is becoming obsolete But many farmers still want to be shown the value of grading fruits and vegetables and certain other farm products Without commonly accepted standards for many products consider able part of the profits due to systematic agriculture is lost
 The bureau of markets, United States department of agriculture, is pointing out the importance of grading larger number of farm products, summarizes the benefits as follows;
 1 It would encourage better methods Of production and handling.
 It would provide a standard trading
 basiss
 It would enable the. buyer to procure stock of any size and quality desired. It would aid in eliminating fraud thereby promoting confidence between producers dealers and consumers. The federal grain and cotton standards have come to be generally recognized as
 desirable, and the wartime potato grades, though no longer compulsory, are Stiii widely adhered to-a fact that IS good evidence of their value Several states, including Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Cal ifornia, Texas, Wisconsin and North Car olira. through their own marketing ou- reaus. are establishing or have established standard grades for one or more prod nets The federal bureau of markets has been glad to aid these agencleS Tn various ways. having made an extensive study of the le.oblem and accumulated much valuable data, it. is prepared to offer helpful suggestions to any state or trade organization interested in establishing standard grades for the following prod ucts: Irish potatoes, onions, sweet pota- toes. apples fresh tomatoes and cap- bages. It. also has investigations under way dealing with several other products l Students of present-day complex meth ods of distribution assert that 1t IS mn
 possible to have adequate market quo l tations until farm products are sold ac- l cording to commonly accepted standards Terms used in standard grades are in el- [ feet a universal language. They permit each agent in touch with the market 10 speak and be spoken to with clear and | full understanding of the sort of prod ucts under discussion.
 The total value for the United states of such representative items as eg}ti and nc,lltry indicate the magnitude of the interests now suffering from lack of ade- euate grading practices. These products for 1919 were estimated to be worth more than $1, 900, ,000,e0o- :

D. L. Robinson. market and live stock agent for the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. offers the following suggestions on sor- |gEum:
 Grow sorghum forage-it pays.
 To be financially successful with live stock it is vitally necessary that breeders. feders and dairymen, have an ample sup ply of cheap nourishing and palatable for age at all seasons of tbe year.
 Sorghum CRed Top, Orange. Amber and Seeded Ribbon cane) can be safely fed. either green or cured: is a sure forage crop, both in dry and wet years; yields a heavy toi.nage, even on poor land; stalks as well as tops (seeD are eaten by stock, hence no waste.
 It almost equals corn in feeding vafue.
 It is relished by all finds of live stock.
 Crops can be planted at different pe- riods thus insuring~ an abundance of green forage from July to September. even though pastures become exhausted.
 Can be harvested and cured for dry TOT age either in summer or fall.
 It requires no machinery in order to harvest economically: can be shocked, cured and fed in the open field, although it is better practice to shock the crop under a shed near the feed lot.
 Has been grown and fed, both as green and as cured (dry) forage, for the past several years by some of the best farmers
 in the south.
 It enables dairymen (cream shippers) to milk cows at profit during the win ter, as well as at other times, when grass is not available.
 The United States department of az riculture, in Farmers Bulletin No. 246. shows that sorghum cane is q most val uable forage crop for the southern states, and outlines the best method for grow ing, harvesting, curing and feeding sor- ghum forage. We urge the reader to se- cure from department of agriculture, Washington. D. C., a copy of Farmers Bulletin No. 246
 All farmers and stockmen who are not | otherwise supplied with an abundance of good forage should plant sufficient acreage of sorghum in 1920 to meet their forage requirements. Sorghum forage is certain preventative of hollow stom- ach. 'N

MARKETING FARM PRODUCTS

The use of publicity in marketing agri- cultural products is not new, but it has not been developed to a degree compar- able with it's use in connection with manufactured products. It is perhaps natural that manufacturers and mer- chants should have blazed the way and that individual growers have been slow tc organize for publicity efforts. Ma tional publicity, which embraces all forms of advertising, can be carried on only by large organiza eioHs and not by indi- viduals
 With increased means of oommunica- ton and improved transportation, the manufacturers in the last fifty years have outgrown their communities and have been able to reach out into dis tant markets with their products In this reaching-out process they have found that one of their greatest assets was. or ganized publicity. national and even in- ternational advertising, and they have
 fl many cases become entirely indepen- dent of their communities as far as the marketing Of their, prooucts is concerned. But manufacturers especially in Amer
 ca, where large-scale production was first developed found it necessary to standardze their produce not only as an aid to large-scale production, but as a prerequisite to successful national adver- tising
 Ine neeU or SJdnudruS- TOT IaTn DTDu- ucts did not apearuntil the process of marketing grew more complex and 1n- creased transportation facilities led to the development of more distant markets. Tcday through organizations of pFoduc- CTS and through national and state legis- lation, standards for farm products are being evolved and there is an increas- ing use of publicity for marketing these standardized farm products The citrus 0c opd Florida f1e apple producers of the northwest, nut growers, and, to a more limited extent, potato growers. cranberry growers, grape growers and others, are organized and are selling standard products.
 Although wide publicity for agricul- tliral produce will necessarily await the more complete development of standards for such products, there are other forms of publicity which tend to prevent the disastrous market conditions which arise from faulty distribution or over supplies of a product some sections of the

GRADES FOR FARM PRODUCTS.

Various attempts have been made to establish egg and poultry standard grades, but the various exchanges are not in agreement regarding grades, and the trade has been handicapped because sf re- sulting diyersities. The difficulties constantly arising be- cause of the lack of common standards are illustrated by the experience of a New York broker who made a bid to western shipper for a carload of eggs classed as refrigerated firsts. The offer was ac- cepted, and when the car arrived it could not be discovered that these eggs fitted any known grade of refrigerated firsts." Tn the rather heated discussion that fol- lowed the western shipper finally an- nounced that he had graded the eggs according to a standard of his own!
 These are days when American pro- ducers are looking to foreign markets. Abroad, even more than at home, recog- nized grades are an asset. Again eggs may be used as an illustration Prior to 1914 the largest amount of eggs exported to the United Kingdom by this country was less than 100000 dozen in a year.
 Since 1914 it has varied from 4,s0O,OOC dozen to 7,700,000 dozen. The way has been opened for the development of this immense trade because there have been small imports from continental Europe. But in spite of the lead given us by the war, Canadian eggs have been bringing from 2 to cents more in the British market than American eggs. Nor was it question of sentiment with the English men. The Canadian shippers, anxious to continue merchandising connections es- tablished during the war. haveTbeen grad ing their eggs, and that fact has apepased to the discriminating British public.
 The lesson to America is obvious. It applies not only. to eggs, but to many
 other farm products. A representative of the bureau of markets has stated tile case thus: Standardization is fundamen-
 tai to progress in every field of effort in the arts and sciences, ana in indus try and commerce as we'll.
 Coal.is sold on grade. Grades of lum- ber have been known in the trade for years. Grades of cotton and wheat, though only recently established, are now recognized as absolutely necessary to the marketing of these products. Eventually we must. adopt grades for aNlarger num- Der of farm products If eventually, why not soon? The expert services of the bu- reau of markets are available to any state or trade organization desiring to
 promote this needed improvement.

of the facts, and found that, so far as production is concerned. there is no ncte- worthy difference between regular and irregular milking, although regularity is usually desirable for other reasons. In the experiment the feeding hours were regular throughout. fMore difference might be found if both feeding and milk ing were irregular, as is the case on many farms. It has always been the common opinion, also, that COW would give more milk if she had water constantly before her than if she were watered once or twice day. The department is experi- menting on that, and has reached the ten- tative conclusion that Che advantage of water continuously lies mainly in the saving of labor rather than in greater production of milk.
 There was another common theory on which people were divided. Some men said that hog would do better if he had water to wallow in. Other men of equal experience said there was nothing to 1t; that a wallow had nothing to do with the prosperity of hog. The department made some experiments, and found that a hog does gain weight more rapidly if he has access to a walfow than if he has not.
 There are other animal experiments in progress that will require longer periods than the 20-year experiment with cattle Some inbreeding experiments are in pro gress that have already reached the twentieth generation of inbred animals One series of experiments has resulted in the recreation of a breed of horses-the Morgan-that, when the experiments be- gan, was thought to be lost to the world. Other experiments are in progress with the object of creating a breed of Amer ican general-purpose horses, and still oth- CTS for the evolution of the ideal cav airy horse.
 Experiments are in progress to deter mine the best method of developing bet ter milk and butter producing cows in larger numbers. Line breeding, inbreed- ing and breeding are being tried through number of generations.
 These lines of experimentation are merely indicative of scores of lines along which work is now in progress and of hundreds that have already been complet- ed Whenever any experiment is complet- ed and the facts are determined, the 1n- formation is made available to the pub lie. These results, obtained by the de- partment of agriculture, the state agri- cultural colleges and other cooperating agencies, form the basis of agricultural advancement If all farmers availed themselves of them, advancement would be much more rapid. Many of them are incorporated in bulletins and other pub hcations Practically all of them that have been completed are available in one form or another Where full informa- tion is not to be had in printed form. off fieials of the department or of the state experiment station or the county agent at your home can furnish it.
