TOURISTS. SAVE
DAY FOR HOTELS
OVER in EUROPE

New York, Sept. 21.-London's ho-
tells have been enjoying unusual pros
perlty during July and August, &C
.cording TO HI r. Browett. Of wey-
bridge. England, who is at the Wal
dorfZAstoria. Mr.. Browett,; who has
q. chain of hotels in England, eays
the tourist trade has saved theafdays
and that hotels in England and the
continent are on the sure road to
prosperity. The recent failure of
Lady Decies with the hotel has been
the Outstanding exception.
The hotels in London are all
crowded to capacity. with reserva-i
tons for many weeks ahead. Up to
a week ago, when I left, there SEEM
ed to. be no immediate signs of ssdi-.
intuition" said Mr.. Browett. The
crowds in, the vestibules and lounges
are more cosmopolitan than ever be-.
fore, and all the nations Of the, world
seem to have delegates bent on poli-.
tics, commerce or pleasure. The
number of Americans in Europe this
summer was an agreeable surprise to
hotel men.
Zone of the most interesting of the
newer hotel keepers was Lady Decies,
the former VivienI Gould, whose brief
venture into the hotel field was
watched with close interest. She re-

pointing a manager to operate it for
her. Trading proved most unprof1t-
able, however, and the hotel recently
engaged the attention of the London
Bankruptcy court, and the debtor
estimated her loss at Eli, 900. The
hotel men recognized the fact that
she had conducted the hotel in a
splendid way and had given the best
service, and under the very best<con
ditions 1t is highly improbable that
the plan would have worked out. The
patronage did, not prove steady
enough or adequate enough to con-
tinue in the manner planned" J

DON'T CROWD GROWING CHICK
Where Space Is Limited Youngsters
Become overheated, Causing
Outbreak Of Colds.

Growing chicks must not be confined
to crowded quarters at night. If they
are. they will become overheated and
this. In turn, will lead to the develop
ment of colds Of which 1t Is very diff
cult to rid the flock and which may
be carried along through the summer
and fall, causing serious outbreak
of colds in the laying fiocks the fol-
lowing winter.
How can one tell whether or not
the chickens have enough room? One
of the best Indications Is the condi-
ton of the plumage. If the plumage
is bright and clean 1t Is good sign
thaf the birds are doing well and have
room enough. If the plumage Is soiled
by droppings, 1t is an indication that
there Is not room enough for all OF
them on the roosts, with the result
that some are compelled to rest on
the floor beneath the roosts and thus
become soiled.

REQUIREMENTS OF EACH CROP

lures Close Estimate Can Be
Made Of That Section.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Figures from which the farme' can
compute for himself the cost of pro-
duction of corn, corn for silage, wheat.
oats, and hay, under given conditions,
are presented In preliminary report
on labor and material requirements Ct
those crops, recently issued by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
lure. These figures cover the normal
hours of man labor and horse labor,
and quantities Of seed, fertilizers, etc.,
required per acre for each crop, as
determined by surveys by the office Of
farm management and farm econom-
les.
Apply Basic Factors.
The money cost is found by apply
Ing to these basic factors the current
rates for labor, seed. etc. Inasmuch
as 1t has been found that, in general,
labor and material costs approximate
81 per cent Of the total operating cost
for these crops, 1t is easy to find this
total when the labor and material costs
are known.
The figures given represent average
crop requirements for the regions
where investigations have been made.
II the farmer does not have precise
records of labor and material expendi-
lures for his own farm, he can esti-
mate them pretty closely by taking the
average for his own region as basis
and applying current rates for labor
and materials, with due allowance for
any unusual conditions that may exist
in his own case. The method of COM
putation is as follows:
1. Determine the totaf'c cost Of labor
and material per acre by applying cur
rent rates to the quantities Of labor
and materials obtained from the in
dividuals own records or, IL such are
not available, use those given in the
table.
2. Determine the total operating ex-
pense per acre by dividing the cost OF
labor and material by the percentage
figure given for each region.
5. Determine the total acre cost OF
production by adding the interest
charge or the cash rent paid for the
use of land
4. To determine the cost per bushel
or ton divide the total acre cost by
the yield per acre.
The following example shows how
this method worked out in figuring
the cost of corn for silage on an Iowa
farm:

SPRAYING CELERY TO
PREVENT LEAF SPOTS.
Application Of Bordeaux Mixture
Is Recommended.
Treatment Should Continue Through
out Growing Season and More
Especially In Moist, Cool Wealth.
er-Appiy With Pump.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Celery plants should be sprayed with
bordeaux mixture every ten days to
two weeks to prevent leaf diseases,
which often seriously injure the crop
for market purposes. These leaf spots
occur generally in celery-growing dis
tricts in the United States during cool,
moist weather. Homemade bordeaux,
composed of pounds bluestone Coop
per sulphate) and 4 pounds stone lime
to so gallons of water. Is the cheapest
and best fungicide for the purpose.
The spraying should be begun while
the plants are still In the seed bed and
continued throughout the season. The
sprayings should be more frequent
during moist, cool weather favorable
to the development of the leaf spots
