mandates Of supreme economic law

with that American spirit of un-
daunted optimism which enables us
to find the end of the rainbow while
less fortunate people grope in dark

has begun to appear. Things are

such things before We have learned

GET CUSTOMERS FOR
PARCEL POST TRADE
Write to Relatives and Acquaint-
anCes in Cities.
Many People Will Not Order Farm
Produce From Strangers Because
They Do Not Know of Con
ditions of Production.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
For producers who wish to market by
parcel post the most satisfactory way
of finding customers is to write to
friends, relatives, or acquaintance in
cities, seeking their trade say special
lists of the bureau of markets, United
States Department of Agriculture.
Purchasers, on the other hand often
can locate reliable producers by cor
respondence with friends, relatives, or
acquaintance in the country. More
than rs per cent of the produce being
marketed by parcel post in a number
of cities in which investigations have
been made is sent by persons who
obtain their customers in this way.
Making business contact is less diff
cult between friends because there is
an absence of the suspicion and dis
trust that sometimes is found between
strangers. Many persons will not
order farm produce from strangers
because they do not know the condi-
lions under which the articles are
produced, it is said
Although ways of obtaining custom
ers are numerous, no method is so
promising as that of working up a
trade with or through friends. This
method of establishing business rela-
tionship is especially recommended for
the general farmer who has limited
amount Of produce. Those who wish
to market a great deal of produce by
parcel post may find it necessary to
obtain customers by personally solicit
ing strangers or through advertising
in newspapers and by other public
means. Another method is to write
to friends in the city, asking for a
list Of acquaintance who would proba-
bly, be interested in receiving table
supplies by parcel post.

They are manifested by whiting of
the whole plant. These, and the ones
referred to above, may be and ought
to be kept out of new land The way
to do 1t is to set out only clean plants.
The way to keep the plants clean Is
TO sterlize the seed beds. If steam
pressure is available, the inverted-pan
method described in Farmers Bulletin
1886 is best. Such steam pressure
may often be had in the greenhouse
from the boiler used for heating. For
outside seed beds any kind of steam
boiler, either on a stationary outfit or
a steam traction engine, will furnish
plenty of pressure. If steam pres
sure is not available, good results can
be accomplished by the hot-water treat
ments advocated in Department Bulle-
tin S1S.
