prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
There are few shippers Of produce
who have not suffered at some time
the discontinue Of receiving word
from the other end Of the line that
their carload arrived in bad condition,
due to poor grading, careless packing,
frost damage, overripeness, rot, break
age, mold, disease or any one of half
dozen other kinds of injury.
Every instance of this sort means a
money loss and the shipper wonders
sometimes whether the produce really
arrived in bad order or whether some
INSCRIPTIONS dealer possibly seized up
on a trifiing excuse to reject the ship
| ment because 1t was received on O
falling market, or sought a pretext to
| depress it's value or to gloss over
| sale made at what seemed unduly low
prices.
Condition Determined on Arrival.
If really damaged, the shipper wants
to know to what amount. Was the
whole load affected? What was the
actual condition on arrival? Was the
| loss due to bad handling and packing
or to delay or neglect by the trans
portation company or by the receiver?
| Was the cause disease which may
develop also in the rest Of the crop?
| Some of these questions interest the
receiver and the railways, as well as
the shipper or producer. No one cares
ITO assume blame and incur loss for
what happened to the produce while
| it was in the hands of others. How
can all these questions be settled with
| out undue expense or delay?
| Since the establishment of the fed
eral inspection service three years ago
| by the bureau of markets and crop
estimates of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, the answer is
comparatively simple. Telegraph to
| the federal inspector in the nearest
large city, asking him to report on the
shipment" He is trained man, with
considerable experience in handling
produce, a competent and certified
| judge of grades and condition.
The inspectors verdict is commonly
accepted by dealers and shippers and
by courts, railways and express COM
panies. With the shipment officially
inspected, all parties concerned have
learned all that it is practicable to
know about its exact condition and

half of the sources of worry and un-

Certificate as Evidence.
The idea of official inspection is to
provide a reliable, disinterested report
as basis for settling disputes regard
ing quantity, quality, grade or condi-
ton. No matter who asks for it or
who pays the bill, whether producer,
dealer or railway, the other party may
have a copy of the report. If the
shipper and dealer can not agree, or
If there is damage claim against a
transportation company which results
in a suit, the certificate is prima facie
evidence in the federal courts on the
points which it covers.
The requesl for inspection should
tell where the car may be found and
the number, and should give also the
main facts add the contents, calling
attention to aiH special point as to

Immediately narrowed after broad
casting. Transferring soil from any
considerable distance is expensive and
subject to the danger of introducing
troublesome weeds, insects and plant
diseases.
An easier method of field soil in
oculation which has met with success
where only small amount of inocu-
lated soil is available is to coat the
seed with inoculated soil by means Of
ordinary furniture glue.
Dissolve two handfuls of glue for
every gallon of boiling water and al
low the solution to cool. Put the seed
in washtub and then sprinkle enough
of the solution on it to moisten, but
not to wet it Zone quart per bushel
is sufficiently, and stir the mixture
thoroughly until all the seed is mois-
tened.
Obtain inoculated soil from a place
where the same kind Of plants as the
seed are growing, making sure that
the roots have a vigorous development
of nodules. Dry the soil in the shade
and pulverize it. Scatter this dust
over the moistened seed, using from
two to four quarts of dirt for each
bushel of seed, mixing thoroughly un-
til the seeds no longer stick together.
Liquid pure cultures are prepared
by the Department of Agriculture and
are mailed in limited quantities on ap-
plication, not more than enough for
one bushel Of one kind of seed to any
person. They are also sold by private
concerns. Complete directions are
mailed with each bottle.
