MARKET REPORTS VALUABLE
TOMAN WHOSTUDIES THEM

Market reports dry? Not on
your life!" exclaimed Haskins.
Reading them saved me $125 last
week on my potatoes. Of course the
reports were dry until I got on to
how to read them, but, believe me,
now I think they are about the most
interesting reading there is
This veteran reader of market re-
ports on this particular morning was
sizing up the potato situation, since
ner in which he did it illustrates
pretty well how to use market re-
ports 1ntelligently. He began by
taking up the latest daily schedule
of potatoes and looked over the re-
port from the leading market, name
were quoted at Is cents per hundred
weight lower than the day before.
Then CHANGING at che reports from
Minneapolis, Kansas City, New York,
Boston and Philadelphia, he learned
that the prices in these cities had
declined but little.
Finding Cause of Decline
Seeking the cause of the weakness
In the Chicago market he observed
records of heavy arrivals of potatoes
from Minnesta, Michigan, and other
northern shipping states, and con-
cluded that the drop was caused by
these large offerings reaching the
nearest leading market, in conjunc-
ton with heavy supplies from
other producing sections. He also
found mention of some poorly grad
ed stock which. in all proba bility,
added to the unfavorab1e market sit
uation.
Turning to his file of daily re-
ports for the past week and the
Weekly Review issued by the Blu
reau of Markets, United States De-
partment, of Agriculture. he conclud-
ed that the decline marked a general
downward tread. Consequently he
glanced over the reports from the
leading producing sections supplying
Chicago and found that the trend of
f. o. b. prices was also downward
at such important potato centers as
Waupaca, Wis, Moorehead, Mimi.
Grand Rapids, Mich, and in the
Grand Junction district of Cnlora do .

also that hauling and shipping were
active at these points.
"Evidently the western crop is now
moving fast" Haskins said to him
self, land the Chicago car-lot market
has been the first to feel the effect
in a marked degree"
Rapidly he went over in his mind
the crop conditions, aided by the car
lot summary. Weekly Reviews, and
special article on the potato situa-
tion in a recent issue of farm pa
per.
pared with the previous year and tho
amount shipped from each state for
the season, to date. Nor did the al
titude of growers, buyers and ship
pers escape his attention. He took
into account the car supply and the
weather conditions which, at that
particular time were both fairly ia
vorable. He noted conditions in east
ern shipping sections and consuming
markets.
Having reviewed the whole sit
uation, with the aid of market data
such as any producer can secure with
little trouble, he was able to reach
an intelligent conclusion. Experienced
as he was, he detected the hinge" on
which the market was turning and
said to himself, Chicago car-1ots are
off another dime; the market is going
down. All things considered, as the
weakness isn't extreme, I think l will
hold on to my potatoes a little longer,
for l believe things will look better
in a few days"
Summarizing Many Facts
To size up the situation for pota-
toes Or any other crop at any time
requires the quick balancing of many
facts and causes. No general in
cases The way TO learn to use mar
ket reports is to begin and use them.
Experiences comes with practice. In
time one is able to read between the
lines and to "feeP' the market from
indications that may mean little to
the beginner. Patience and alertness
in studying market reports, including
those in the daily papers, those is
sued by the bureau of markets, and
those found in weekly periodicals
will bring it's reward.

Directions for Using Calcium Ar

/. The use of calcium arsenate for
controlling the boil weevil is prof
liable if it is used under proper con-
ditions
2. 1t will be more profitable when
used on high yielding areas.
3. Only a high grade of calcium
arsenate containing not less than ~
per cent of arsenic pentoxid and not
more than rs per cent water soluble
arsenic should be used.
4. 1t should never be used as a
liquid spray but should be busted on

in early morning when the plants are
moist with dew.
6. Hand picking of weevils and
squares will be more profitable than
poisoning until the damage is 10 per
cent which will be about the last of
June or the middle of July.
Z. Poison every week so that all
new leaves and squares will be COW
cred and poison after each heavy rain
that washes off the poison.
8. Be economical with poison for
cost of material is the greatest item
of expense.
8. Use power machines if pos
sible for they use less material and
cover the plants more thoroughly.
10. Poisoning alone without other
measures is not sufficient.
II. Calcium arsenate is poisonous
to man and to Workstock and must be
handled carefully.

There is no reason why you should
not be able to secure satisfactory
stand of Whatley's Prolific corn IN
the manner you have suggested: our
plan would be to use an 8-4-4 lor-
mula on tomatoes. You could. OF
course, use a 9-2-3 formula and then
apply 100 pounds of nitrate OF SOFA
as a side application rather early IN
the growing season. Five hundreo
pounds of either one of the above
formulas should be used at the time
the planting is done. For melons
we would use the same kind ana
amount of fertilizer as for tomatoes
L nj
zation and 1000 pounds is often
not too much to use. Everything
depends on the natural fertility, of
the soil and the treatment which has
been accorded it in the past;
Corn requires liberal fertilization.
and we would use from 900 to 400
pounds of any of the formulas men
toned with this crop.
We prefer to put the fertilizer un-
der the drill row for such crops as
beans rather than to broadcast it
though either method may be fol-
cess. The chances are that most
crops take up the greater part of
the food needed in their growth in
the first sixty to ninety days after
planting, though crops may feed for
a longer period than this: A good
deal depends on soil and climatic
conditions and the nature of the crop
grown. The suggestions made above
apply particularly to truck crops.
We think 500 pounds of a stand
ard formula would be a satisfactory
amount of fertilizer to use under

either of these crops.
You are not worrying us at all.

Among the earliest varieties of

The Perfume Bottle Has
Come to Stay on
Milady's Table.

A LTHOUGH it would never oc-
~ cur to the modern maid to
- take bath in perfumery or to
be so lavish in her use of scent that
it would permeate the walls of her
rooms long after she had left them,
still perfumes have been essentials
Of the feminine boudoir down
through the ages, Esther, the beau
tiful Jewish queen, made herself
literally as sweet" as possible by
bathing in myrrh, while Napoleon's
Josephine apparently exercised no
restraint in her use of musk If any
faith can be placed in the story that
only few years ago workmen who
were repairing her one-time cham
bers, were strongly affected by the
scent Of this odorous perfume.
+ Today perfumes are having re-
xival and as matter of course It
follows that again the scent bottle
is coming into its own.
Some one has ventured the opin-
ion that il is the returned <rbuddies"
who are responsible for this state Of
affairs. Certainly one would not
have to use much imagination to
find out why this might very well be
true, after the sights and the smells
OF two years of war. Whether it is
or not, the observer knows that
everywhere perfumes are being
looked. upon with renewed affection.

have been fashioned more simple.
belonging to a period when the con-
tents rather than the containers were
stressed. Variety has added spice to
these as we'll as to countless other
accessories of the boudoir and, yet
through all these changes, it has
been the salt bottles alone that have
retained for the most part any char
acteristic individuality both in the
glass itself and in the leather or
enamel in which it was encased.
But times are changing and again
we find in vogue the most beautiful
Of perfume bottles. Nothing is too
elaborate or too expensive for the
essence of milady's selection, and as
far as the perfumers themselves are
concerned they profit thereby, since
one of the --latest" scent bottles
may incline milady toward fitting
out her dressing table anew.

Planked Fish.
There is no better way of cook
ing and serving any of the white
meated fishes than planked. It is a
bit of trouble to plank fish proper.
ly, of course, but the fish so cooked
is we'll worth the trouble. To begin
with, of course, the plank is neces-
sary-a hardwood plank, about one
and one-half inches thick and round
ed at one end. 1t should be little
longer than the longest fish you
ever wish to cook on it.
There should be grooves at the
