Business Methods.
Benefit by Experience Of Neighbors

Secure Competition.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agrfculture)
Based upon methods used by wood
land owners that have been success
full in marketing their products, the
forest service of the United States
Department of Agriculture offers the
following 10 suggestions for aiding
others who have timber ON the farm
for sale:
Get prices for various wood prod
ucts from as many sawmills and other
wOod-using plants as possible.
Before selling. consult neighbors
who have sold timber and benefit from
their experiences.
Investigate local timber require
ments and prices. Your products
may be worth more locally because
transportation is saved.
Advertise In papers and otherwise
secure outside competition.
Secure bids if practicable, both by
the lump and by log-scale measure.
Be sure that you are selling to re-
sponsible purchasers.
Market the higher grades of timber
and use the cheaper for farm pur-
poses.
Remember that standing timber can
wait over a period Of low prices with
out rapid deterioration.
Use written agreement in selling
timber, especially if the cutting Is
done by the purchaser.

profitable marketing of woodland

GOOD PREVENTIVE OF VERMlN
All Small Enclosures Should Be
Cleaned and Disinfected Before
Being Used.

Except in accidental cases, hog lice
are found only on hogs, and they do
not voluntarily leave their natural
host, says the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. When sepa-
rated from the animal they live only
two or three days. The lice pass
readily from one hog to another when
the animals come in close. contact.
Practically all cases of infestatlon
occur. from contact with lousy ami
mails and not from Infected premises.
Under reasonably good sanitary con-
ditions pens, corrals and premises
which have contained lousy hogs are
not source of danger to hogs free
from lice.
As a precautionary measure, how
ever, and because it is good sanitary
practice, all small Enclosures which
h,rve contained lousy hogs should lie
cleaned and dislnfected before being
used for a new lot of hogs The litter
and manure should be removed and
