More care in loading cars will pre-.
vent much damage in shipments OF

bureau of markets, United States De.
partment of Agriculture, discussing
methods of loading and types of con.
tainers in use. Shifting of the loads

ages, and lack of proper ventilation
are found to be responsible for losses
in many cars arriving at markets. eau.
ton against loading diseased potatoes
is also urged because of the large
number of shipments that show scab,
wilt, or late blight, and in some cases
are practically worthless when they
reach the market.
Press Potatoes Firmly in Barrels.
The double-headed ventilated bar.
rel, it is said, appears to be the best
package for new potatoes that is
now in general use. If properly made,
it protects the potatoes as well as
holds them in place. Much less break
age has been found in cars where the
barrels are loaded on end than when
loaded on their bilge. Wooden strips
should be placed on top of the lower
layers of barrels for the upper layers
to rest upon. &
There is n serious objection to this
method of loading. In some instances
the barrels appear to be slack measure
when they arrive at the market, due to
the jolting in transit. This fault, how
ever, it is said, can be largely elm
mated if growers will fill their barrels
full and use a press when heading.
Loading barrels on their bilge is said
not to be q safe practice unless head
liners (strips to prevent heads bulg-
ing) are used. 1t is said that the
use of headliners would prevent nine
tenths Of the breakage in all types OF
loads with barrels. Records show
that practically every car has from 8

that before an attempt is made to es-
innate the funds available a well-di-
rected campaign of enlightenment be
carried on throughout the surrounding
country, with the object of making
known the benefits to be derived from
the erection of the building.
Every community will have its W
particular uses for a building, and
these can be determined only by the
people themselves. A standard COM
immunity building, however, it is point
ed out, should have as a minimum
these accommodations
Accommodations Of Every Building.
An assembly room, perhaps. with
movable seats, that can be used as a
meeting place for the people or for
various organizations. With the seats
removed the room will be available as
a gymnasium, as a game room, as q
dining room, or for fairs and exhibits.
A stage on which lectures, plays
and various entertainments can be
given and which may have a screen
for motion pictures.
A kitchen where food may be pre-
pared.
A place where lunches, suppers and
banquets may be served.
The more advanced communities
would need, it is thought, other accom-.
modations. These should be carefully
estimated in determining the size OF
the structure. 1t is well to take fu-
ture growth into consideration. De-
tails of the various features of plan
ming, constructing, and maintaining a
community house arebcontained in the
bulletin (Farmers' Bulletin 1879,

A community can live around from
church building to church building
from schoolhouse to schoolhouse,
from hall to han, but so long as it
lives that way it will never expert
ence the distinct pleasure that comes
from, occupying a home of it's own in
the form Of a community house. "a
good community house adds something
to the life of the community, in the
opinion of specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture, set
forth in Farmers Bulletin l173,
plans of Rural Community Build
ings," now ready for distribution.
Before a community decides the
question Of erecting a building, says
this bulletin, it should make a thor
ough study of the local situation.
The study should show that an actual
need for the building is felt by the
varied organizations of a public ma
ture and by the people themselves. 1t
should demonstrate that the building
can and should be maintained as a
permanent institution. After it has
decided to erect a building numerous
questions arise, upon which the bull
letin gives much helpful information
and many valuabla suggestions, to
gether with pictures and floor plans Of
a wide variety of community buildings
now in actual use.
Make Survey Of Community Needs.
The original study, it is pointed out,
should not only determine the need Of
a community building, but also the
most desirable type. The bulletin adj
vises that the building be large enough
to serve the present needs Of every
member of the community and every
organization, regardless of party,
creed, or class, no matter how far dis
tant they may be, and should be To-
Gated at a place naturally frequented
by all members Of the community.
Raising the money for the undertake
ing is cited as one of the important
problems. The amount to be secured
cannot be accurately estimated in ad-
vance. Department specialists advise

PLAN TO ERADICATE soRREL
Apply Ground Limestone, Hydrated
Lime or Observation-Disclosures
of Crops Is Good.

A good treatment for sheep sorrei,
according to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture specialists, is to
apply ground limestone two tons per
acre, hydrated lime one and one-half
ton per acre, or quicklime one ton PEI
acre. The quicklime can be used to adj
vantage by shaking with. water and
sprinkling the mixture freely over the
sorrel. The liquid will injure the
leaves as well as help correct, soil acid
ity. Sorrel can be destroyed by spray
ing with solution of sulphate of iron
tcopperas), two pounds to the gallon
of water. The treatment will moi per,
m%anently injure grass and will destroy
the weed if repeated as often as the
sorrel tries to send out new leaves.
Spraying is useful where sorrel occurs
as patches in a good stand of grass
and around rocks and fences. Iron
sulphate is deadly to Sclovers and to
many broad-leayed weeds, but is not
injurious to animals or the soil. Sor-
rel a easily be destroyed by a short
rotation of crops. If possible, the rota-
ton should be arranged SO that the
soil will be cultivated at different sea
sons of each year.

What Happens When Barrels Are

to 30 or more barrels broken on ar
rival at the market. Extra bracing is
needed when barrels are loaded on
their bilge.
Prevent Barrels Rolling.
Wooden strips should be placed
across the floor at frequent intervals
in order to prevent the lower barrels
from rolling. Use of rocks for this
purpose localizes the strain and causes
much ~breakage. Strips should also be
placed across the doors to prevent the
barrels on the upper layer from falling
against and tanning the doors.
The sack, it is said, is not a suitable
%container for tender new potatoes; it
offers no protection from bruising, and
when loaded is hard to ventilate. II
sacks are to be used they should be
of no greater capacity than 12O
pounds. This size sack a be han
died with much greater care and lends
itself to ventilation better than larger
sizes. Neither are hampers, it is said,
suitable packages for potatoes. They
do not have the necessary strength for
the weight of their contents, and offer
little protection for the potatoes.
Crates of various sorts are being
used. and. according TO reports. APP
pear satisfactory where the strength
of the crate is sufficient for the weight
of its contents. Weak crates should
not be used under any circumstances,
and crates with wide opening tend to
wilt the potatoes while in transit.
Crates must be loaded tightly and firm
~, and no slack space left without
suitable bracing, while stripping is rec
commended. =

the soil may be stirred between the
rows and the plants kept growing rap
idly SO as to attain reasonable size
before the heated term Of early sum
mer sets in.
In the North it is customary to SOW
the seed broadcast about the 25th of
July on land from which early peas,
early potatoes, or some other early
crop has been removed. The land is
raked smooth and the small seeds SIM
ply scattered over the surface, then
covered by again raking the soil. No
cultivation is required where the seeds
r ,sown broadcast. %.
In the southern states turnips are
frequently destroyed by plant lice that
suck the juices Of the leaves. These
insects are rather difficult to control,
spraying with nicotine preparations be-
ing about the only remedy.
Turnips stand considerable cold, but
those that are to be placed in pits or
in the cellar for winter use should not
be allowed to freeze before being
stored. If they become frozen in stor.
age, they should not be disturbed until
they thaw naturally.

MEMORY TREES TO SOLDIERS
Plan Proposed to Adorn American
Highways Meets With General APP
proval Throughout Country.

To plant q tree along the great new
American highways in honor OF every
United States soldier, sailor and ma
rine in the World war, is a proposal
which has met with the hearty sup
port Of the Arneican Legion, G.. IA. r.,
Gold Star Mothers and other patriotic,
organizations. "A permanent marker
would be placed on each tree. bear
ing the name OF one veteran and his
organization, with no indication OF
rank. A separate inscription would
be placed on the trees representing
those who died.
Pnn success OF the project means
that the great Lincoln highway from
New York 10 San Francisco and the
Dixie highway from Chicago to Flor.
Ida viii be fringed with shade trees.
President Harding has Expressed his
lnpproynl pf the plan and the United

BETTER PROFITS IN POULTRY
Specialists Of Department Of Aarieui-
ture Give Reasons for Favoring
Standard-Breds.

Here are five reasons given by spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture for keeping
standardized poultry:
standardized poultry Is more uni
form in size. type and color.
STANDARDIZED poultry Is more at.
tractive in appearance and appeals
more strongly to purchasers Of stock
and eggs.
Standardized poultry offers d
greater combination of practical and
useful qualities suitable 10 the needs
OF the farmer and poultry keeper.
The products OF stanaard4hred fowls
are more uniform in quality, arc In
greater Demand. and bring hefter
prices.

Turnips are one of the most univer-
sally grown of all garden crops. In the
northern states turnips are planted in,
midsummer and stored for winter use.
In the southern states they are plant
ed early in spring for early summer
use, also in the fall for use during the,
winter. Turnip tops make excellent
winter greens throughout the greater
part Of the southern states. For early
spring culture it is customary to SOW
the seed in drills about a foot apart
