Better Marketing

The pinto bean growers of this state have earned $S2.000 in additional profits from their 1919 crop through their Co., Operative Marketing Association initiated by specialists of the bureau of markets, was the recent statement made by a New Mexico pinto bean grower
 Before the association was formed the beans were purchased by local buyers who practically controlled the market, and therefore paid almost any price they chose. These buyers were rapidly de- stroying the possibilities that offered in the marketing of pinto beans through lack of care in grading and packing Choice redeemed pinto beans was a teeh- nical trade name that came to mean noth- ing, for the beans often contained splits and dirt, as a result of which the trade cculd not depend upon the quality of the product.
 Now the farmers do their own market ing through the association. Sixteen warehouses, properly equipped with grading and packing machinery, have been erected The beans are carefully graded and then packed in new, even- weight 1OO-pound bags, which are neatly sewed and branded. The association de- mands clean cars from the railroad and in loading the sewed ends of the sacks face one way. The association be- lieves in the bureau of markets proved theory that when a buyer throws open the door of a car he is instantly im- pressed if the contents present a clean, orderly appearance The New Mexico as sociation has 1,500 members and mar keted 250 carloads Of beans last year. It is constantly calling on the bureau of markets for assistance, which is cheer fully given.

E Plenty of string beans in jars in the store closet means that the basis for in- numerable salads and vegetable side olshes IS at the housekeeper's command all during the winter months, so when thlS vegetable is at it's best in the garden or on the market the wise woman cans enough for use when it is out of season. The following directions for canning stHlnS beans are given by the United states department of agriculture.
 select small, tender wax or areen beans Tor canning purposes. 5,:ans witch have grown within the pod to any size are diff tcult to can. and the resulting product IS not as satisfactory as one from young CT beans. The sooner the beans are in the Jar after picking the better the flavor and the more certain they are to keep. Wash, string and cut off the ends of the beans, Whole beans may be canned CT they may be cut in short lengths. Those ance.
 Place the beans in wire sieve or in eheesecloth and blanch (scald) in hot water or live steam for from to Q minutes, or until the pod will bend with out breaking On removal drain we'll and pack into hot jars which have been boiled for 15 minutes On the jars place rnbbers which have been boiled in a solu- ticn of 1 tablespoon of soda to l quart of water
 Cover beans with a. hot brine made from level tablespoons of salt to 1 quarts or boiling water. Put on top which has been boiled IS minutes. With giass-top jars put one wire bail in position. Make screw tops about half tight Processing beans under steam pressure is recom- mended. Quart jars should be processed 45 minutes under pressure of 10 pounds

Care In Feeding Chicks

The first rule for getting a good profit rom poultry is to get the chicks matched early, and the next is to keep them grow ing so that they will reach laying ma trrity before the commencement of cold weather. There is no profit in keeping chicken just alive, whether it Is in. tended for laying stock or for the market One reason why more care should be ex- ercised in feeding chicks than in feed ing fowls, is that the chicks know hess about what is good for them than do the fowls. The healthy chick is hungry thing and will eat what is given it; the digestive organs being weak are less able to dispose of objectionable feed than are those of older fowls.
 Young chicks should be fed little at time and often. poultry specialists on the United States department of agricul- ture say. They should be fed early in the morning and just before going td bed at night, and not less than three .times in the intervening period. For the first two weeks they may he fed three meals of soft feed and two of hard, and after that age two of soft and three of hard. less soft feed heinz fed as they grow older. No more moistened soft feed should be given at one time than they will eat up clean.

OPEN-AIR MARKET FORCLJJR

At Lincoln, Neb., there is a boys and girls garden club that has created a new departure in the marketing of gar den products. The members of the club | 4000 strong-produced more garden fruits l and vegetables than they could use. How could they dispose of the surplus cropy An open-air market was suggested. The Board of Trade and Chamber of Cont merce favored the plan and Saturday morning open-ar market was created. At first the business men of Lincoln complained that it would interfere with the regularly established produce trade; later they learned that, on the con- trary, the boys and girls Saturday mar ket created larger demand for produce during the week, and they are now en- thusiastic over the arrangement. That open air market has become regular factor in the economic scheme of things at Lincoln, and curiously enough S5 per cent of the members of the club are girls.
 It may be popuarly believed that the marketing end of farm production should be conducted by the men, That may DO true with regard to some commodities. but marketing experts of the depart nent of agriculture maintain that some times women are better qualified to han die the marketing work in connection with poultry. eggs and canned products. The production of poultry and eggs is largely a matter attended to by farm women. Canning is left entirely to me women. If farm products can be mar keted to best advantage by those who have the greatest intimacy with them. does it not follow that the department. contention Is correct?

 During the past year the home eco- nom!cs experimental kitchen of the de- partment of agriculture has been experi- menting with the addition of a small amount of acid-vinegar-to nonacid veg etahles being canned. This work is be- ing continued, and the results thus far in- dicate that 1 to 4 tablespoons of vine- gar added to a quart jar help greatly in reducing the amount of spoilage. When the vinegar Is added, the time of process ing can be reduced. For instance, it is found that corn, which ordinarily is diff fieult to can successfully, keeps we'll when tablespoonfuls of vinegar are add ed to a quart jar processed hours con tinuously. String beans, old peas and spinach are other vegetables successfully canned by this method.
 The addition of vinegar to canned veg etables in the, amounts mentioned modi- fies to some degree the natural flavor of the vegetable, but the result is not objectionable to most people and in many
 instances is not noticed.

Fall-Sown Oats

Fall seeding of oats has numerous ad- vantages over spring seeding, where the fall-sown varieties can be successfully grown, as in the states of South Caro- lima. Georgia, Alabama. Florida. Mssis- sippi and Louisiana; in Virginia and North Carolina. except in the Piedmont and mountain sections, and in southern and eastern Texas, announce specialists of the United States department of agri- culture, in Farmers Bulletin 1119, entitled "Fal-Sown Oats''
 Under the climatic conditions in those states the fall-sown crop usually yields better and natures earlier. The land can usually be prepared in better shape in the fall than in the spring. Fall seeding interferes less with other work. Poorer land and less fertilizer can be used The fall-sown crop furnishes a cover for the soil during the winter and prevents wash ing
 The bulletin sets forth the vari6ies .,f oats that can best be grown in the south and details the soils and fertilizers that should be used It is recommended that. wherever possible, oats should fol- low a cultivated crop One of the best rotations for the cotton-g growing section is: First year, cotton. second year, corn with cowpeas planted at the last cuiti- vation third year, fal-sown oats, fo< lowed by cowpeas. Outside the cotton growing section, a good rotation, inciud- ing oats, is: First year. corn with cow peas in the corn; second year, oats with clover or grass seeded in the oats; sSrd year. meadow or pasture. Other arrange ments are also suggested
 The bulletin details the preparation Of the land. the preparation of seed, the treatment of the seed for smut, the sow ing of the seed, methods of seeding. treat ment of the land after seeding, methods of harvesting and the utilization of the crop.

 bucks may be fed on the rations rec commended for fowls and chicks but better results are usually secured hy leedlng more green and vegetable seeds ana a larger proportion of mash. Eggs rom PeKin ducks are used largely for hatcnlng, and the profit is secured in producing green ducklings; therefor. these ducks are fed a maintenance ration after they stop laying in the summer untli about December l, when a laying ration is given and the amount of mash increased
 Indian Runner ducks have been Intro ouced as producers of commercial eggs. so they should be fed laying rations throughout the year if kept for egg pro. duction
 The ducklings to be marketed should DC fattened for two weeks before killing on ration made of three parts. by weight, of cornmeal parts of low srade flour or middllngs, 1 part of bran. 1a part of beef scrap, with per cent srit ana ID per cent green feed. Feed this mash three times daily or use a mash of three parts cornrneAl. | nart low srade wheat flour, 1 part bran, per cent beef scrap and 3 per cent ovsrer sneH, with the green feed and grit added
 The green feed is sometimes left out of the ration during the last seven days Of tattening, as it tends to color the rneac and may produce a slightly flabby rather than firm flesh; however. if is easier 10 keep the ducklings in good feeding con oltlon on a mash containing green feed. Boiled fish may replace the beef scrap Out should only be fed up to within two weeks before they are killed, as it may give hshy taste to their flesh. A con siderable quantity of boiled fish is also red In the mash to laying ducks in sec tions where the duck farms border on the water and where fish is available at very small cost. This fish aids material ly In reducing the cost of feeding
 
 Breeding ducks if not kept for the production of market eggs, should have grass range, if possible, after the hatch ing season is over and be fed sparingiy on mash of 1 part, by weight, corn meal, parts bran. 1 part low-grade wheat flour. part green feed, per cent peer scrap and per cent grit, given once or twice daily with one feed of mixed grains; or the mash may be made ot ; parts. by measure cornmeal, parts bran parts low-grade wheat flour. 4 parts beef scrap and 2 parts of green feed. with small amount of grit ana shell or mineral matter

 It is conservatively estimated that $ per cent of the membership of boys ana girls club work throughout the nation consists of girls. Within a few years the majority of those girls win take thelr places as American farm women. They are now, in their teens, studying and working out problems that will confront them later on. And while they are do- ing that they learning the fundamental principles in scientific production ana marketing methods that must supplant those being used at present in order to meet the increasing food requirements of our country
 The grown-ups would do we'll to emu late their example On every hand are instances where, by the use of improved methods, boys and girls. are securing larger crop results with A minimum of effort, and by proper grading, packing. and marketing methods receiving a maxi mum of reward for their labors

In New Jersey, through proper grading and packing methods, the boys and girls generally top the egg markets by at least cents dozen. When eggs were so cents a dozen in Massachusetts last year the eggs marketed by boys and girls clubs brought Si dozen because of their superior quality. Boys aSd girls poultry generally sells at higher price than the prevailing market level
 There are many individual instances of notabfe achievements by boys and girls. One is that of a hfteen-year-old girl in Massachusetts who marketed about 3vV cans of high-grade fruits and vegeta bies last year. The products were so we'll put up that the Colony Club of Spring neld. Mass. desired to contract for the entire output. At the present time th,s young woman has dfficulty in meeting her orders. which call for 5000 cans of produce this year.
