Marketing Sheep and Hogs

NAGkhhk 9hGGP @h6 AAoks
 Of 54 carloads of sheep including II single-deck and 43 double-deck cars, the cost of loading and bedding cars averaged SO.019 per 100 pounds live weight, according to figures furnished the Federal Trade Com mission by the United States De- partment of Agriculture. Other marketing expenses, including freight, varied from $0.239 to $1.97 per hundred-weight. The shrinkage in weight varied from 3.53 to 8.57 per cent, the majority of the ship ments averaging approximately 8 ger cent.
 Similar records on 253 carloads of hogs showed the cost of loading and bedding to average Is cents per 100 pounds live weight; feed at mar ket approximately 8 to g cents; com mission charges to 10 cents; mis- cellaneous expense, 2 to 10 cents, averaging approximately cents; and the total cost of marketing in- cluding freight from varying dis tricts approximately from 33 to 50 cents. The shrinkage in weight on 873 carloads of hogs varied from 9.88 to minus 4.59 per cent.

kept in a cool, clean place free from dirt, flies, etc. New milk should never be mixed with old unless it is to be used at once, as the bacteria in the old milk will, of course, be added also, and the mixed milk will not keep as we'll as the fresh milk alone.
 Bacteria are thickest where there is dirt and decay, and milk should therefore be stored only in clean, sweet places. It is safer to keep it covered, to exclude not only dirt and bacteria but also the f1avors and odors which it so easily absorbs. If kept at temperature of 50 degrees F. or less, good milk should remain sweet for 12 hours at least, after it reaches the consumer, and ordinar- ily for 24 hours or more, dairy specialists of the United States De- partment of Agriculture say. Some times in very hot weather house keepers complain that in spite of all precautions it sours quickly, even in the ice box. This is often due to the fact that the air of the ice box, al- though it seems cold in contrast with the heat outside, is really not cold enough to check the growth of the bacteria; if a thermometer placed inside registers more than 50 per cent F. the fault is almost surely in the temperature of the ice box, and not in the milk. In large cities, where most of the milk comes by morning trains from a considerable distance, it is often impossible to de- liver fresh mornings milk in time for breakfast, and that milked the morning before must be given to patrons who insist on an early de-

bealthful than fruit. It is not neces- sary to use such thick sirup as was used in the days of plenty. A 10 per cent sirup made of part sugar and g parts water will make pala- table any of the acid fruits. Such fruits as apples, pineapples, and the like can be canned without sugar. In fact, ordinary glucose or corn sirup may be substituted for sugar in making the sirup. A palatable sirup is made by mixing 1s cup glucose, and cups of water.
 Not So Expensive After All
 It requires about 7 ounces of su- gar for a pint jar. One cup of su- gar will make 10 cups of sirup. A pound of sugar will make 20 cups. This last amount will be sufficient for 20 pints of canned fruit. Where the 10 per cent sirup is used the cost of the sugar to can a pint jar is 1k cents with sugar at 30 cents pound. It is not so expensive after all.

Home Canning To Beat H. C. of L.
 Home canning-of utmost impor- tance during the war-will be just as important this year, according to present indications as they are viewed by the United States De- partment of Agriculture. The shortage of labor on the farms makes it necessary for the canneries to pay high prices for the commodi- ties that will be canned later in the season. Labor in the canning fac tories is expensive and difficult to obtain. Everything, from cans to carriage costs, has increased in price, and transportation is slow and more expensive than it was in war times. All this increase must be paid by the ultimate consumer; and there is not even assurance that there will be enough canned products to go around. The solution is home canning.

Thick Sirup Not Necessary.

That sugar is higher in price than it has been hitherto is advanced by some as reason for canning either less fruit or nothing but vegetables; :; but unless one intends to give up sweets altogether there seems no good reason for not using canned fruit on account of high-priced sug- ar. There are few desserts that do not take from one-half to one cup of sugar, and no dessert is more

In every great tire factory, the chief question is: "How much can we give for the money?" And the product depends on the policy adopted.
 Every man who. has become ac- quainted with Brunswick Tires knows that Brunswick standards are again evident. This famous con- cern-noted as a. leader in every line it entered since 1845-has once more proved that its policy is right. "A perfect tire is simply a matter of knowledge and standards and skill. No secrets nor patents pre- vent making an ideal tire.
 But standards come first. For in tire making there is vast room for skinping, for subtle economies, for hidden shortcomings. Makers with out the highest standards don't build high-grade tires.
 The Brunswick organization of tire makers includes brilliant staff of technical experts. Not a man

Save the Plums

Spray now to control the brown rot of plums, cherries and peaches. Self-boiled lime sulphur mixture is probably the best material to use.
 For 50 gallons of spray material slack eight pounds of stone lime with boiling water, then while the lime is still boiling add eight pounds of fine sulphur, adding more boiling water to make a thin paste. Con- stantly stir this material for five or six minutes, then add cold water to prevent further action. If the lime is very slow more time will have to be allowed.
 Granulated lime is the best to use. Mix the dry lime and sulphur in a tub or barrel and then add the boil ing water, constantly stirring. After cooling with cold water, strain into the spray barrel, washing as much of the material into the barrel as possible. This spray should be used about as fast as made, as it does not work as we'll after the material has once settled. Arsenate of lead, one pound of the powdered form, may be added to this mixture for curculio
 Plums should be sprayed every two or three weeks until full grown. Cherries should have two sprayings if possible. The poison need not be added after the first application s. P. Hollister, department of pomo- logy, Connecticut Agricultural col lege, Storrs.
