STANDARDIZING FARM
PRODUCTS WILL HELP
Recognized as Fundamental to
Improved Marketing.
Prevents Waste and Shipment Of Dis
eased With Sound Fruits and Veg
etabIes--Much Loss to Shipper
Can Be Avoided.

Standardizatidn Of farm products is
being widely recognized as fundament-
al to Improvement In marketing.
without wellrecognlzed, acceptable,
standard grades, the various market
news services OF the bureau of markets,
United States department OF agricul-
ture, cannot be made fully eff
fective because there must be n rec
ognlzed basis for buying and selling,
common language through which
grower, shipper, transportation COM
pany and dealer may clearly under
stand one another. 1i
Standardization, moreover, ellmi-
mates waste and prevents the shipment
Of diseased with sound fruits and
vegetables and of over-ripe with prop
erly matured specimens. Failure prop
erly to classify products before ship
ment frequently results in deteriora-
ton, decay and inefficient distribu-
ton. Much of this loss might be pre-
vented by sorting products into grades
at the point of production, packing
each grade separately to minimize con-
tamination, and converting inferior or
understandable grades into by-prod-
ucts.

PRODUCE BEST CAULIFLOWER
From Sun or Weather-Three
Cuttings Of Crop.

When the cauliflower head is about
the size of dollar, the leaves should,
be tied or twisted over the head to
protect 1t from sun and weather. This
method should produce perfectly
white product. The leaves should be
so tied that snow or rain that enters
may find ready exit at the bottom,
as an accumulation Of moisture on
the head or curd will cause dark spots
and eventually ruin the product.
There are usually, three cuttings OF
the crop. If the earliest heads are
tied with string, the second with
raffia and the last have the leaves
broken over, the grower will be aided
at cutting time and will not have to
examine all the plants.

MIXTURE FLIES WILL AVOID
In Preparing RepeIIents Care Should
Be Taken Not to Make Them
Too Strong.

Many malodorous mixtures, particu-
larry Of an oily nature, have some
value as repellents for stable flies, but
in preparing these care should be
taken that Ney are not made too
strong, especially when animals are
being worked in the hot sun, as they
are likely to cause overheating and
often produce shedding of the hair. /.
A mixture of fish oil q gallon), OIL

FAST WIRE SERVICE
GIVES PROMPT NEWS
Information Is Vital to Intelligent
Food Distribution.
Te'egraphio Reports Sent From Big
Market centers Every Fifteen
Minutes During Day-Much
Spoilage is Avoided.

! The federal bureau of markets news
feeds, and seeds, and dairy products,
and fruits and vegetables, are de-
signed to keep before producers. dis
rributors, and consumers a picture of
the movement of important crops to
market, the supplies arriving In all Of
the principal consuming and distribut-
ing centers and the wholesale prices
prevailing in each. M make its re-
ports of the greatest practical useful
ness, the bureau has equipped itself
with the fastest system of commune
cation available. It's branch offices in
the great consuming and distributing
markets are connected with leased
telegraphed lines and operated by bu-
reau telegraphers. These wires are
busy from eight to twelve hours n day
In the transmission Of market infor-
nation which is>vital to intelligent
and. systematic food distribution.
From the time the live stock mar
kets open in the morning until the
close of the days business, the bu-
rsau's representatives at Chicago,
Kansas City, Omaha and East St.
Louis send ont telegraphic report
from one or the other of these mar
kets every Is minutes. The sales of
live stock In the Chicago yards alone
average more than S3.000,000 a day
and the value of the live stock sold In
the public stock yards OF this country
Is more than $4,000 00O,O0 annually
figures indicating the Importance Of
supplying information that is authori-
tative.
When a market Is oversupplied with
a product--particularly highly per-
ishable fruit or vegetable-a great
waste results. The product spells and
becomes unfit for use and the dealers
suffer financial loss on account of
this spoilage and also on account Of
the fact that they must sell their
stocks at a sacrifice in order TO dis
pose Of them at all. Gluts Of this kind
used to occur frequently and were
nearly always coincident with a scare
Ity OF food In another place. Since
the market news sefviee on fruits and
vegetables was Instituted. this situa'
ton has improved materially.

ness, or a surplus of male birds. Both
ficult to determine by casual observa-
ton, which forces the buyer to depend
largely on the sellers word.
1t is advisable either to buy mated
pigeons which are from one to three
years old or to get young birds six to
eight weeks old and mate them at the
proper age. Pigeons are most valuable
as squad producers when from two to
six years of age, although many will
breed until they are about eight years
old. The small varieties mate and
breed at five to six months, and the
( larger ones at eight to nine months.
The young pigeons are usually re
moved from the breeding pen and put
into pen by themselves after they are
able to fly about and pick up their
own food. A catching net or bag
made of large-mesh cotton netting,
with the mouth or top about eighteen
inches in diameter, Is very useful for
catching the pigeons. Squads Matched
in April, May and June make the best
breeders, while their value on the mar
ket is comparatively low at that time
of the year.
Marketing the Squads.
Squads are fed by the parent birds
until they are marketed, which is
usually at from three and one-half to
four and one-half weeks of age. They
must be sold about this age, as the
period during which they are ready for
market rarely exceeds one week.
Squads are In good market condition
when fully feathered under the wings,
which is usually about the time they
begin to leave their nests, and If not
marketed at that time they soon lose
their baby fat and their flesh begins to
get hard. In the morning, before the
breeders are fed. pick up the squads
to be marketed when their crops are
empty. Leave them In a pen for II
hours to allow all food to pass out of
their crops.
The production of squads from each
pair of breeders varies from one or
two to as high as ten or eleven pairs
a year, but an average of from six to
seven pairs is a fair estimate, although
some squad breeders produce more.
Squads usually sell at the highest
prices during cold weather, as pigeons
do not breed so freely then as is spring.

sweet potatoes may be grown by TAX
ing vine cuttings from those that have
been previously planted and inserting
these In ridges In place of rooted
plants. The sweet potatoes grown
from vine cuttings are usually free
from disease and are smooth and uni
form, making them very desirable for
winter storage.
In many sections peas can be plant
ed as late as September and will yield
very nice crop before cold weather
sets in. For this purpose the early
or quick maturing sorts should be
used.
Can or Store Vegetables.
Large quantities of garden vegeta-
bles are lost through want of suitable
means of taking care of the surplus
This can be done either by canning or
by storage, depending upon the kind
of vegetable to be cared for. The Sc

vegetables that should be stored at

especially desirable for apples and
Irish potatoes. Sweet potatoes should

given plenty Of ventilation.
In planning the garden operations
for the balance Of the season, it Is well
to take into consideration all of the
above features. First grow the kind
OF vegetables that are needed for can

provision to can or store all that are
not needed for immediate use.

FARMING ACCORDING
TO MARKET DEMANDS
Majority of Produce Growers Are
Looking Ahead.
Profitable Practice to Find Out What
Other Sections Are Doing and As
certain Advantages in Con-
Stunning Centers.

Travelling by faith rather than by
sight has sometimes been recommend
ed as wise policy. but produce growers
used to find IL frequently and nightly
disastrous when they followed II per-
force before the establishment of the
crop and market reporting service OF
the United States department OF agri-
culture. OF course, a few of them are
still following the faith system or
growing and marketing because they
have not seen fit to use the eyes fur
nished them by the government re-
porting service, and these are still
planting, gathering and marketing at
random. But the majority are looking
around and ahead, seeing what other
sections are doing. finding where any
shortage or surplus Is likely to be pro-
duced, ascertaining special advan-
tages or disadvantages in consuming
centers, and generally getting a fore-
cast of the market from crop and
other conditions the country over.
Thus the more farsighted southern po-
tato growers take into account the
volume and probable movement Of the
northern crop and the amount Of the
old crop likely to be left over until
spring. Even the northern growers
may put in late acreage and top
dress the crop n the general situation

To get the most out of the home
garden a number Of crops, such as
snap beans, beets. lettuce, radlshes
and peas, should be planted at inter-
walls to insure a continuous supply. In
the case of snap beans as many as FIVE
lions of the country. In the southern
part Of the United States special at
tention should be given to the late
planting Of the semihardy crops for
late fall and winter use. These crops
include spinach, kale, cabbage, col
lards. turnips. lettuce and winter
onions. The late-planted crops gen.
orally give the best vegetables for
winter storage. Beans, peas, carrots
and beats for canning purposes should
be grown either very early in the sea-
son or quite late, in order to get the
finest quality of canned goods. A late
planted crop of snap beans often
yields an abundant supply of very
tender, pods which are ready for can
ming just before the first frosts. These
usually make better quality of
canned product than do those grown
at time when they mature during
the heated portion of the season.
Too much stress cannot be placed
upon the need for gardeners to pro-
duce Irish potatoes during the remain
der of the season. 1t Is now time to
begin thinking about planting late
crop In sections where late crop is
grown. In the southern part of the
United States q late crop may be
planted in July or August, provided
enough moisture is in the ground to
give the seed start.
Gardeners are advised to plant the
standard crops and varieties, leaving
the fancy kinds of vegetables and the
novelties OF their list.

Chicks viii Not Grow Properly II
Not Healthy.
Far Better Plan to Prevent Ailments
Than to Attempt to Cure an Ailing
FowI-Give Good Attention
to Their Houses.

Disease Is one of the handicaps to
successful poultry keeping and should
be guarded against at all times. I'm
less kept In healthy condition,
chicks will not grow properly and
mature fowls will lose their vlgor and
vitality and become unpr9ductive and
Improbable.
1t is far better to prevent disease by
proper care and attention than to at
tempt to cure bird after 1t is sick.
Therefore 1t Is important to watch
the flock closely at all times for any
signs of disease, so in case an out
break occurs it may be checked at
once. Prevention Is always better
than cure, and all those who wish to
succeed with poultry should give their
birds such good care and keep their
houses so well cleaned and disinfect-
ed that both fowls and chicks Will
keep hardy and vigorous.
Some diseases may be treated sue
cessfully, while others of more seri-
GUS nature usually prove fatal. II
only one or two birds of flock be-
come sick 1t Is usually advisable to XII
them Immediately (unless, they ara
choice specimens) and burn or bury
the carcasses. say poultry specialists
in the United States department OF
agriculture. If the birds are kept and
an attempt is made to doctor or cure
them the disease may prove contagious
and spread throughout the entire
flock.
