WHERE PEDDLER is SUPREME
In Lithuania People Almost Every
where Are Dependent on the
Travelling Merchant"

The peddler, who has almost dis
appeared entirely in American farm
ing communities, is still very impor-
tant institution in Lithuania. His out
fit there is a veritable department
store. His customers are dependent
upon him for nearly everything they
do not raise or make upon their own
farms. There are not even any mail
order houses to encroach upon his
wide domain.
Everything the peasant home In
Lithuania is not able to produce must
be brought many miles. Railroads
are few. And 50. through the ped
dIers, with their surprisingly varied
stock in trade, Lithuanian mothers do
their own shopping at their own door
steps. These peddlers come to the
PEASANTS cottage with linen goods,
fancy cloth for dresses, handker-
chiefs, aprons, combs and brushes,
stationery, trinkets, hardware, house
hold utensils, sugar, salt, soap and
even shoe backing.
IF cash is to be had, the peddlers
accept it readily, but they are just
as ready to barter soap for some
homemade linen, or sugar for native
needlework-

DEADLY FOE OF LAZY FOWLS
When Trap Nests Are Used Nc
Amount of cacI<Iing VIII Deceive
Owner Of Poultry Flock.

Trap nests are the deadly foe Of the
lazy hen When they are used, no
amount of cackling and appearance Of
industry can conceal the fact that she
isn't delivering the goods. They are
the one accurate way by which the
owner OF a flock can check up on the
laying ability Of the individual hens.
Besides being valuable in locating
the drones, their use is advisable fof
the following additional reasons:
They help to make the birds tame.
thereby tending toward increased egg
production.
They furnish definite knowledge con-
corning the egg production Of indi.
vidUa1 fowls.
They furnish the most satisfactory
basis for utility or other breeding.
They show which hen lays each indi-
yidual egg, thus furnishing the essen
tiaI basis for pedigree breeding.

PROFIT FROM STOCK
AND VARIOUS CROPS
Enterprises Should Be Adopted
That Are General.
Limited Demand for Some Product
Not Generally Grown Will Some
times Afford Few Farms OPP
Portunity for Expansion.

Are the crops and live stock the
farm is producing for sale to the non
producers of the community or for ex-
port to other communities such as can
be made profitable when produced and
sold locally or exported?
The best guide here, says the United
States department of agriculture, is
the practice of the community; enter
prises should be adopted that are
found generally on its farms. A
limited demand from the nonproducers
of the community for some product
not generally grown locally, and for
which many local farms are not
adapted, will sometimes afford a few
farms opportunity for expansion.
For instance, the plan suggested by
the department for providing dairy
products should, if followed, produce
enough surplus calves to develop here
and there cattIe-raising and cattle
feeding farms. Some farms will be
specially adapted to this purpose by
having an abundance OF suitable but
unstable by-productS, cheap pasture,
or pasture land unadapted to cropping
Other farms may develop a consider
able business In the production OF
pork, or Of pigs for supplying farms
where brood sOWs are not kept

Prayed for Cure

the high grade maintained. But this
can not be said OF all American but
ter OF fine quality. Today no uni
form grades are universally adhered
to and consequently much butter has
to be marketed at lower prices than
it would otherwise bring because it
bears no brand or score indicating Its
real value.
Apply Grades More Widely.
The government has established
standards for scoring butter and any
one who viii get In touch with one Of
the five principal butter markets
where inspectors are maintained
Minneapolis, Chicago, New York,
Philadelphia, Boston can have his
butter inspected at small cost. What
is needed, it is claimed, Is that the
federal grades be more generally ap-
piled. Not only would high-grade but
ter more generally command the price
it deserves, but many producers now
more or less Indifferent to grading
would be induced to improve the
quality of their output.
A few weeks ago perishable food in
spectors representing the Bureau OF
Markets, United States Department. OF
Agriculture, were called on to inspect
100000 pounds of butter intended for
export to a European country. The
bureau was able TO certify that most
of the butter came up TO the standard
required by the exporting house. Hav-
ing received federal certificates to
this effect the exporters could safely
GhfDnnnrfc
Europe. The incident is considered
of special interest because the house
exporting the 100000 pounds had
previously had trouble with an IN
inspected shipment abroad because IL
did not come up to specifications. By
utilizing the federal inspection serv-
ice it was possible for these exporters
to be sure that butter accepted for
shipment was up to a certain
standard.
Standardization Promotes Efficiency.
Since the Inauguration Of federal
food inspection by the Bureau Of
Markets in 1917, an Increasing number
of producers, buyers, and sellers have
come to appreciate its value, as is
indicated by the demand for inspec-
ton Of perishable fruits and vege-
tables and butter. This is big ad-
vance in the right direction, market
experts say, but UNNECESSARILY greater
benefits can be enjoyed when pro-
ducers and dealers generally come to
understand the grades which in
spectors apply, and constantly work
with them in view. Standardization
will promote efficiency, not only In
the butter industry, but in handling
most perishable fruits and vegetables.
With a wide acceptance of federal
grades and standards, production
could be carried on far more profit
ably and distribution far more eco
nomically than at present. Anyone
interested in this question can secure
full information by writing the

partment of Agriculture, Washington,

YIELD WHITE-SHELLED EGGS
Mediterranean Breeds Are Best Suited
for Production-Do Not Make
Good Sitters

Poultry of the Mediterranean or egg
breeds are best suited for the produe-
ton Of white-shelled eggs. Represen-
tatives Of this class are bred largely
for the production Of eggs rather than
for meat production Among the pop
ular breeds of this class are: Leghorn,
MinOrca, Ancona and Andalusfan. One
of the outstanding characteristics Of
the egg breeds is the fact that they are
classed as nOnsitters. That is, as a
rule, they do not become broody and
hatch their eggs. When fowls Of this
class are kept, artificial incubation and
brooding are usually employed
