The 1921 commercial crop Of Bermu-
da onions in the Coachella valley, CAL.
is to be marketed on the basis Of Uni

cording to an announcement of the bu-
reau of markets, United States Depart

the Standardization of practically the
entire Bermuda onion industry in the
United States.
United States grades for Bermuda
onions were recommended by the De-

Of 1918. The same year the state of
Texas legislated the compulsory grad
ing of Bermuda onions according to the
grades promulgated by the department
and adopted by the Texas state depart

NOT RESTING, JUST WAITING
Idiot Boy, According to Judge Gary,
Very Much Like the Rest
of the World.

Judge Gary was talking at a din

'All over the world" he said, '1abor
is earning more and producing less.
In England, for example, there are
more coal miners employed than ever
and the production of coal is lower
than ever
English labor reminds me of the
idiot boy.
"A farmer, out of pity, gave an idiot
boy a job. Then one afternoon the
farmer walked across his farm to see
how the boy was doing. He found
him lying on the grass under tree
smoking a cigarette.
"Well, Looney,' he said-the boy
was known as Looney in the village
well, Looney, what are you doing?
Resting?
'Looney took his cigarette out of
his mouth and answered:
"'No, boss, amt restin', cause

NEW DEVICE CLEANS GRAINS
Recently Invented Continuance Re-
moves Smut, Dust, ETC., at the
Time of Thrashinq,

A new device known as an aspirator
has been designed by specialists of the
bureau of markets, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, for cleaning
wheat and other small gains by re-
moving smut, dust, and dockage at the
time of thrashing. This device is at
tached to the grain delivery spout and
tests indicate that it removes approx
mately one-third of what ordinarily is
classed as dockage. The use of this
device will enable farmers to keep for
feed a part of the seeds and other for
eign material ordinarily hauled to the
elevator and lost to the producer; it
also improves the quality of gain by
removing from it a large part of the
smut dust and Objectionable foreign
material. A recleaner, for attachment
10 the deck of thrashing machines, al
so designed, gives promise of being eff
6cient. 1t is said

Remember that young chicks do not
require food for the first 4S to 60

start eating, it is good plan to start
