by country buyers somewhere along
the way to the consumer there Is sure
to be dissatisfaction. Some buyers
are afraid to buy on grades, and SO
Start lot of trouble for themselves
and others from whom they buy their
grain.
Some line elevators complain that
they lose on wheat bought In the coun-
try by the elevator managers. The
wheat is often graded lower at the
terminal market than the rgrnde given
to the farmer by the buyer.
Checking Up the Grader.
1t is mistake for the farmer to in
sist that his wheat shall be graded
No. In cases where the grain Is not
entitled to that grade. The country
buyer who overgrades in order to
please his customers, and then under
weighs or assesses more d0ckage than
justified. Is unfair both to the farmer
and to the company for whom he Is
buying. Then, too, it Is mistake for
the country buyer not to grade wheat
No. ! when 1t Is of No. l grade.
Nowadays the farmer can check this
grading. for he can send n representa-
tive sample to any licensed inspector,
and receive an official sample certifi-
cate.
Buyers who know how to apply fed
eral grades may easily test the first
load farmer brings in, and keep the
sample as type sample of that farm
er's wheat or corn or oats, while the
remaining loads are marketed. 1t Is
not unusual in some localities for n
farmer to bring sample of his wheat
to the buyer soon after thrashing. and
offer to sell his crop on the basis Of
a price made on the sample, with the
understanding that the wheat when
hauled shall be equal to the sample.
That gives the buyer plenty OF time
to apply all the tests necessary to es-
tablish accurately the correct grade
of the grain.

Turkey Is the favored fowl at holi-
day tables. But turkey raising Is on
the decrease In the United States.
This Is because many turkeys range
through. the grain fields of adjacent
farms and thus become cause Of
neighbOrhood Ill will, while the high
mortality among young poults as or
dinarily cared for on the farm, the
outbreaks of such serious diseases as
blackhead, and serious losses from
predatory animals have all tended
to discourage turkey raising. However,
for people favorably situated raising
of turkeys is one of the most profit.
able side lines which can be combined
with general farming.
Given plenty Of range, turkeys will

sects, green vegetation, weed and
grass seed, waste grain, acorns, chest
nuts and other waste nuts, and con-
vert them into delicious meat at q
minimum expense. Plenty of range IL
essential to success in turkey raising,
and usually the discouraging results
have come from the attempts to raise
the fowls under close confinement.
Pick Your Breed.
1t Is a free-for-all choice as to
what breed the farmer will raise. Six
varieties of domestic turkeys, includ-
ing the Americap Bronze, the White
Holland, Bourbon Red, Black, Nara
gnnsett and Slate varieties of DOM
este turkeys. are recognized by the
American standard Of perfection. Be-
cause the Bronze turkey is heaviest,
1t Is most popular among turkey rails
ers, as the fowls are sold by weight.
Generally speaking, other conditions
being equal, the Bronze Is the hardi-
est variety, the Bourbon Red and the
White Holland are the most prolific.
Turkeys generally are raised In
small flocks on general farms. Few

There may be no such thing as a
sixth sense, but in many lines Of work
there are certain kinds of knowledge
that appear remarkable to others who
have different occupations.
For instance, there is the art of
opening safes by listening to the lock
tumblers passing each other; the abil-
the weight Of man or beast; and, of
course. the fellows who can "spot" an
automobile in the distance and tell
you its name and model.
No less remarkable than some of
these things Is the way In whifh many
country grain buyer can tell his GUS
toner's team of horses as far as he
can see them. Not only that, but he
learns to know his customers grain at
the beginning of each crop season and
does not need to run tests on every
load hauled. A test of the first toad
or two of farmers crop Is usually
enough 20 form correct idea Of
the quality and condition of that farm
er's grain. or course, every load is
closely examined to see If 1t is uni
form with previous loads.
With all this superknowledge, how
ever. the country grain buyer often
overlooks the need for better knowl-
edge of federal grain grades, accord
ing to the bureau of markets, and this
is said to explain certain criticisms
leveled Mt federal grain grades as ap-
piled at country points. Wherever
federal grades are used by country
buyers who understand how to apply
them. reports show that such country
buyers are holding their trade and
that the farmers seem better satisfied
than to have a buyer make price
without any definite standard as a
basis.

WooDLoTs SAVE COAL

Many farms are well equipped
for supplying the fuel which is
needed for cooking purposes and
thus saving coal. A large per
centage Of these farms contain
timber which has received little
or no attention. Most of these
areas would yield an abundance
of firewood and yet leave the
woodlots In even better condi-
tlon than before the cutting wal
made. The removal Of dead, de
caying or otherwise defective
material from the woodlot
would not only serve as a source
Of fuel, but would leave the re.
naming timber In better condi-
tion for increased growth.

1000 employed To house the additional
workmen the concern will construct 100
more houses, which with other building
operations that are in progress will be
sufficient to care for the plant workers.
The National Aniline and Chemical
Company is making extensive additions.
The indigo department Is being added to,
a building costing S200,O0O being under
way and additions to other departments
will total Sl00,000 The company is
engaged in extensive experimental work
that it expects will prove of much value
TO it in the future and the capacity OF the
plant is being exten ded.
The General Chemical Company is
also making big improvements to its
property Hundreds of thousands Of
dollars are being laid out in new buildings
and the output will be greatly increased
when these improvements are completed.
