PEACHES LEAD sHoRT-sEAsON
 TREE FRUITS.

Peaches lead all other short-season tree fruits in the United States in the number of carloads shipped from produc- ing regions annually, according to figures collected by the Bureau of Markets of the United States Department of Agricul ture. Considering all fruits, peaches rank fourth in carlots sent to market, being surpassed only by the long season fruits apples and Oranges = and by watermeions. The approximate yearly average number of cars of the four fruits mentioned reaching market during the past four years are: Apples, 67,o00, oranges, 5000 watermelons, 20,000; peaches 25,000.
 The only close competitors of peaches on the markets of the United States are grapes, of which about 22,O00 carloads were shipped annually, and cantaloupes, the annual Shipments of which were ap- proxinately 17,000 cars. The carloads of strawberries and pears shipped were slightly less than half those of peaches. An average of approximately 1000 car loads of grapefruit and 300 cars of plums and prunes combined were shipped annually for the past four years.

: SHOWS LABOR VARIOUS CROPS RE-
 oCtRE.

The approximate amount of labor re- quired to raise some of the more in1- portaHt crops has been determined by recent farm studies conducted by the Office of Farm Management, United States Department of Agriculture. The results show that it requires the WOfK of one man and one horse for a 1e-hour day to cut, cure and harvest an acre or bay. Oats, wheat, barley, rye, buckwheat. and millet, consume more labor; under normal conditions these grains require the labor of a man for days and for the horse , days. Corn fer the silo in the Central States consumes three days of man labor and 5.5 Of horse work. Tobacco in Kentucky uses 5s days of man. labor against days for the farm horse, but onions, as determined through studies in Ohio, sold in bunch es top the list of vegetables in the amount of man labor they require. Onions use 140 days of man work but only 10 of horse work. Beets and carrots. also sold in punches, come next, with S2 han days to each acre and B days horse labor.
 It is interesting to note that horse in. the Eastern States, requires F ten- hour days per year from his master to care for him, and he contributes only three-quarters of one day to his own up- keep-hauling feed, etc. Dairy COWS need IS days from the man and from his horse each year.
 These figures are. given in Farmers Bulletin 1159, to aid the farmer in an analysis of his business. They will be useful in assisting the farm operator to estimate his labor needles for the next year.

REMEpY FOR APHIDs.

--Aphids are on rampage in Massa- chusetts and are spreading although they have not yet been reported in Connecti7 cut.
 The only successful remedy is nico- tine in some form. used as a spray. Nicotine sulphate is the best con Nicotine sulphate is the most convenient form and may be used at the rate of half pint to 50 gallons of water, which is equivalent to one teaspoon to a gal lon.
 This may be applied separately, using a half pound of soap to every 50 gallons of the spray, or it may be combined with the regular bordeaux or bordeaux and lead arsenate spray. In this case the soap is omitted.
 Where only few plants need treat ment satisfactory mixture may be pre- pared at hotne as a tobacco solution or tea. Take tobacco stems, or even plug tobacco. and soak in water for a few hours until a strong tea-like solution is obtained. Strain, add a little soap and spray with this. The lice are mainly on the under side of the leaves. For this reason it is most important to apply the spray at high pressure in the form of a fine mist and thus to cover the entire plant surface.
 These lice b-e sucking insects and are not killed by stomach poisons like ar senate of lead or paris green, nor by fungicides like bordeaux mixture. Tc kill them the nicotine solution must act ually cover their bodies It kills by ab- sorption through the skin.

GRADING ADDS TO FARMERS
 PROFITS,

When a farmer orders box of bolts of a certain make and size he does not expect to find a thin layer of the bolts specified on the top of the box of and as sorted bolts underneath. In the world of commerce a manufacturer who pur- sued such practices would soon be bank rupt.
 The same principle applies to the sale of farm products, say specialists of the Bureau of Markets, United States De- partnlent of Agriculture. Before sending produce to market the farmer should sort it as to quality and size. The Bureau of Markets from time to time has reeon1- mended grade specifications for various products and, whereve these reconl- mendati tions have been followed, satisfac- ton and increased moietary returns have generally resulted. For instance, it is estimated that in 1919 the potato growers ia Virginia increased their profit a half nllIlion dollars by grading their produce Similar results are being ob- tsined in other states
