PRAISED BY SERVICE MEN.
"War Service Record" Meets Needs
of Thousands Who Did Their Bit
to Save the World.

No single article has given .eX-serv-
ice men so much pleasure as the book
entitled "Our Family Service Record
in the Great World War;" issued by
the War Service Record Bureau, Inc,
of 1S5 DevOnShire street, Boston,
Mass, and selling at $500 the copy.
The popularity of this book has spread
rapidly following its endorsement by
Legion posts everywhere, coupled with
purchases by 26 cities and towns in
Massachusetts alone, and further TAX
ings by large industrial plants for use
as souvenirs tC their workers who
went into the service, or women who
were identified with hospital, social or
relief work.
The book consists of 100 pages, some
beautifully illumined for the pur-
pose of holding the family pictures
and records, and for the owners dis
charge papers. The other pages have
been carefully compiled by a staff of
military experts, and cover in chrome
logical order every move of the service
man from the time he was called until
his discharge, there being plenty of
room for the entering of any dates,
the whole going to make up complete
history Of the war by the one man
concernedS Maps and official data are
provided for reference purposes. The
object of the book is purely patriotic,
it being intended that the service man
or any others identified with the war
shall leave for the coming generations
personal record that no historian can
compile. Mr.. Hamilton w. Baker of
Boston is president Of the publishing
company.-Adv.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The authority back of a market re-
port largely determines its value. Re-
ports from the bureau of markets, Uni
ted States department of agriculture,
are counted of peculiar value in the
maintenance of healthful economic con-
ditions in America because they sup
ply information that is comprehensive,
always up-to-date, and unbiased.
What may be characterized as the
key positions in the governments mar
ket-reporting organizations are the
market stations. These are branches
Of the bureau of markets maintained
in nearly a score Of the larger cities,
and one of their chief functions is to
collect and distribute market news re-
lating to several or all OF the following
products: Fruits and vegetables, live
stock and meats, dairy products, hay,
grain, and mill feeds and seeds.
Most of the branch offices are con-
nected by leased wire with Washing
ton and receive and distribute market
news daily. The original data are as
sembled and condensed into reports,
reviews and press articles which are
distributed according to the needs of
the market. Most of the men in
charge Of this work have had technical
training and considerable experience
either in production or marketing.
Station Men Understand Selling.
The work of these men resembles
that of the county agent in that it
is localized, but it differs from it since
it deals primarily with the selling and
not the producing phase of agriculture.
In other words. the market station man
begins where the county agent, in most
cases. leaves off. He is able to an
alyZe market problems comprehensive
ly because he meets dealers, shippers,
and buyers and is in daily touch with
local trade conditions.
The cooperation which the market
stations maintain with State market
ing agents in q states is. a decidedly
helpful feature of the market news
service. The national service is con-
cerned chiefly with the wholesale mar
keting of produce shipped from one
state to another, but the state agents
are interested in local produce, both
wholesale and retail. The national and
state forces often unite not only in Sc
curing information, but in helping to
solve special marketing problems and
conditions, such as the more rapid
movement of crops in seasons of heavy
production.
The service of the market stations
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1920-05-20

and state agencies tends. to displace
many of the private agencies whose
scope of operation, is apt to be less
comprehensive, prompt, and reliable.
In addition to this general information
which might be called routine market
news, various sections in the bureau
of markets render important service
by securing data regarding special
commodities. The fertilizer sections,
for example, have conducted inquiries
and made reports on the supply and
demand for fertilizers and fertilizer
material. The transportation sections
have rendered valuable aid in securing
complete and regular reports on ship
ments, and also by eXpediting the I'M
loading and return of cars. Without
information on these related subjects,
buyers and sellers often would go far
wrong in their bargaining. T.,
Prompt distribution of the informa-
ton which the bureau Of markets rep
resentatiyes secure is essential to its
value. Reports are collected early in
the morning and are telegraphed from
city to city so that they can be pub
lished the same day. In this way mar
ket information for the entire country
is placed in the city dealers hands a
few hours after. 1T is collected, and
often shippers at remote country
points have the data the morning fol-
lowing its compilation. i, The, reports
show not only actual sales. or ship
ments of various commodities, but 9TH
err important items which have a bear
ing on the markets.
Scope of Information.
In the course of the year the infOr-
nation made available through the
United States department of agrieul-
ture has to do with the marketing of
between 100000 and 100000 car
loads of live stock and 100000 to $780,
600 cars of fruits and vegetables. The
movement Of cotton, dairy products,
dressed meat, grain, and feed is COW
ion. 1t has been estimated that the
departments market news reaches
from 100000 to 100000 readers
through the newspapers, while the
market bulletins, reports, reviews, and
special articles go to tens of thousands
of growers and dealers. Obviously, the
growers and dealers profit directly
from the market news service because
of its completeness and fairness, but
of no less Importance is the benefit to
the public at large, resulting from
healthful, above-board competition pro-
noted by easily obtainable market in
formation.

HE REMEMBERED THE LAW
Boy Scouts Explanation Somewhat
Dsconcerting in That 1t I'M
piled So Much.

The Boy Scouts were telling their
scoutmaster of some of the good turns
they had done during the last week.
He was having this done for the benefit
of one of the city school teachers who
was visiting the meeting. One of the
little scouts said, 81 helped an old lady
across the street"
The next little scout looked at the
visiting teacher, who happened to be
his teacher, and who also was in the
early thirties. 81 brought my teacher
a pitcher of well water when she was
not feeling WE'LL" he told the scout.
master.
The teacher smiled "Why didn't you
say you helped another old Lady," she
asked.
The retort that came back staggered
her. The little scout said sweetly "a
scout is courteous."-Indianapolis

DIGESTlBLE HAY NUTRIENTS
Nearly Three Times as Much In
Timothy as In Corn siaee-
Latter More PaIatabe.

In 100 lbs. of timothy hay there are
48.S lbs. of digestible nutrients, or
nearly three times as much as there
is In corn sllage. Corn silage, being
a succulent feed and more palatable,
is, on the whole, more easily digested.
We have always calculated that one
ton Of timothy hay is equivalent to
about two and half tons of corn
silage. Putting it in another way,
when timothy hay Is worth $40 ton
corn silage Is worth 81.
