 California leads Arkansas in canta- loupe acreage and this state, Colorado and Arizona all led Arkansas in com mcrcial shipments of eantaloupeS this year, although the acreage in Arkan- sas was second to California MT Stevenson brings out that many can taloupes raised were not shipped De- cause of freight rates and low prices Tho same was true of strawberry While Arkansas acreage leads all other states, frost damage cut down the production until het commercial crop stood third, h"'3 tennessee and Louisiana eAceculnS i'

Sweet Potato Curing Houses

there are conditions under which the private house may serve the situation better than any other.
 In the construction of the sweet po- tato curing and storage house, there are certain principles which should govern. Through many years of cX- pertinent and effort, the United States Department of Agriculture has worked out very simple durable and etfec- tive plan for the construction Of these housps. regardless of the size of the house The first principle is strength and durability; second,. effective pro tection from freezing temperatures third. freedom from dampnesS. and fourth. free circulation of fresh air, and the maintenance of uniform tenn peratureS It k not essential that the government plans be followed to the letter in every detail. but. in constru- ton of any size house. the above prin- ciples should be carried out or provid- ed for.
 The main principle involved in cur ing potatoes is getting rid of the eN. cess moisture ar water contained in the potato when it comes from the field. and to provide means whereby this moisture can escape from the in- tcrior of the house and later 10 pro vide a dry atmosphere ill the storage house and to hold steady tempera= ture This cannot he accomplished with any reasonable degree of success in house constructed with sold walls Sucll. .as where the space between the outer and inner walls k filled with SaN dust. or any similar material. and for the same reason. q solid concrete wallis obiectionable regardless of the fact that Il concrete house would hay" great durability. During cold weather, when the temperature k much lower on the outside than it is OH the inside of the house. the walls and all interior parts of the house will sweat ill spite of all precautions that might be taken. The hollow wall. or=open air space with air-tight walls both inside and outside iS the only means of preventing this collection of moisture in the house during such conditions. For these, and other reasons. the "SaWduSt" house, and the solid wall house. of whatever construction k never advisable and we note with satisfaction that such construction is losing in favor every where, and farmers generally. and others interested in ths matter. are coming to recognize thc value of the so called ~oyermmcm house We HOW refer to these a> the Standard houses. iasread of the government hoa>eS, aS We have stated above these houses have now come to hp regarded us the standard.

Keep the poultry, as we'll as all other
living things on the farm, on good

There is mighty little money in
fowls that are always kept hungry

Don't try to see how many fowls you

while the birds are still bleeding, the
picker should remove the feathers, be-
ing careful not to tear the skin. If
the picker waits until the bird is partly
cold, the feathers will be difficult to re-
move. AS soon as picked the fowls
should be hung in a cool place until
thoroughly cold. If the weather is
warm and fowls are to be packed III
ice where no cold storage is available,
they should be placed in tank of ice
water until all the animal heat has left
the body.
When birds are scalded before re-
moving the feathers they are immersed
in hot water, which should be little
below the boiling point, as soon as they
are through bleeding. They should
be immersed three or four times and
then picked clean. Be careful not to
overscald, as this will cause the outer
surface of the skin to rub off. If fowls
are to be shipped dry, they should be
hung up until the skin becomes thor
oughly dry. If they are TO be packed
in ice, they should be left in cold wa
ter several hours or until they are to
be packed.
