ITEMS OF INTEREST TO THE FARMER
1T AND STOCK GROWER -

sembled pepper went into the pack
The president Of the association re-
Gently stated that the brand soo1 be-
came joke on all of the leading
markets
This season different policy was
followed. An attractive bulged pack
and a new brand Seven Stars
was adopted This brand consisted OF
three grades, extra fancy, fancy and
choice, designated by the colors blue,
red and yellow.
AS a result a dependable product
has been established. 1t is put up In
an attractive pack and the purchaser
knows he is getting peppers all OF
the same quality. The brand is in
demand and brings top prices on the
leading markets.
This is largely due to the standard
uniform product. A package OF third
grade peppers. neatly packed, uniform
in size and shape, will make better
appearance than a similar package
where all grades are represented. A
fancy trade wants and will pay for a
product uniform in quality. Our pep
|pers are grown chiefly for the fancy
trade, and we are now getting fancy
prices.
A standard uniform quality of pack
applies not only to peppers but to
every package of vegetables 1t is
only by Standardization and careful
grading that the producer will receive
the higher prices for his first grade
products. If the buyer does the grad
ing he is going to get the advantage
of the increased value.

Successful extension courses for Ne

Experts Discover Unknown Sub
stance Existing In Soil


One Of the most important discover
les in the science or soils has been
made by experts Of the United States
Department OF Agriculture within the
last year in the Aeparation OF hither-
to unknown substance which has been
designated as ultraclay, gelatinlike
substance. very sticky and plastic
when wet and having in the dry state
the general appearance of resin. 1t
appears to be a silicate of alumina,
usually with some iron and traces of
potassium. sodium, magnesium, and
calcium. whether combined or merely
absorbed being point not yet deter
mined.
This ultraclay is believed to be the
principal factor in making the soil
plastic. but when added to loose and
incoherent sand in proportion up to
10 per cent, and the mixtrue made in
to briquettes and dried, it gives to the
sand crushing strength greater than
an equal amount of Portland cement.
The briquettes made wifh~.ultraclay
however, fall to pieces when put in
water, while those made with Port.
land cement retain their form.
The discovery has an important
bearing upon the physical properties
of sons and is being studied in cooper
alton with the Bureau of Public Roads
as a guide in adjusting the structure
of concrete and other pavements to
the texture of the soil on which they
are built.

Berkshire Breeders Boost the Bet
ter-sires Campaign
An indication Of the active and
widespread support being given to the.
better sire campaign now systemati-
cally fostered by the United States
Department of Agriculture is Illus
trated by proposal recently made by
] the American Berkshire Association
This association. according to letter
recently received by the department.,
/ is suggesting to State Berkshire
breeders association a plan designed
to broaden the market for Berkshire
boars and increase the use Of pure
bred animals on farms.
The association is urging the var
| ious State organizations to mail cir
cular letters to their members sug-
hgesting that breeders exchange pure
bred boars for grade boars now being
used by farmers. pricing the resigter-
ed boar at close figure and taking
! the grade boar at the market price as
| part payment, the breeder then send
/ ing the grade boar to the butcher. In
their letter to the State association
the national body points out that every
Berkshire breeder who follows this
suggestion does three things.
/ e
He puts Berkshire boar on an adj
ditional farm
| He provides means Of getting
good Berkshire feeder hogs for the
market.
He puts the purebred sire on farm
where formerly there was grade or
scrub.

Bahia Grass in Cuba Gives Pronnis-
ing Source of Seed
An important new source of seed
for Bahia grass, which is regarded as
the most valuable grass yet secure6l
for permanent pastures on the higher
and dryer land in Florida, was reveal
ed through recent trip to Cuba, by
Prof G. v. Piper, of the United States
Department of Agriculture.
Bahia grass (Paspalum notatum)
was introduced from Brazil by the de-
partment in 1914 There existed no
records of the cultivation Of this
grass. but different botanists had re-
ported it as an important native pas
ture grass in Brazil, Argentina, Uru-
quay, and Costa Rica, both in clayey
and sandy soils. The experimental
tests soon showed that this grass was
highly desirable for pasture purposes
in Florida and along the Gulf coast,
succeeding both in dry and moist
soils. The rapid use of the grass has
been handicapped by the lack of a
source of seed supply. Prof. Piper
discovered that Bahia grass is the
dominant pasture grass of western
Cuba. making UP the lawns and pas
lures there in about the same proper
ton as does bluegrass in Kentucky
End Iowa. The pastures were closely
srazed indicating the high palatabili-.
Y OF the grass, fact also evident in
experimental plats in Florida and OBJ
