PREPARED by the United States Depart

Southern gardens begin to look
seedy about June 10, gardens In the
Middle states section are in the height
Of their glory, and the New England
gardens are just getting well started.
It seems to be a foregOne conclusion
pn the part of most persons through
put the Southern states that southern
gardens can be grown only In the
spring and in the fall, with a few
chance hardy crops during the winter.
The farmer of the middle section
plants his spring garden, then gets
busy with farm crops, and very little
further attention is given he garden,
unless the work is done by he wOm-
IN. In the New England states and parts
Of the Northwest where the grow
ing season Is quite short only one crop
Of most vegetables can be grown. In
the middle section, however, two
crops can often be grown on the same
land, and, more important still, a con-
tinuous supply Of peas, beans, sweet
rorn, and a number of other vegeta-
bles can be had by making successive
paintings.

TO TEST VOLSTEAD LAW.
DistiIIers Seek to Recover Liquor in
Warehouses.

Chicago.-A suit to test provisions
of the eighteenth amendment and the
Volstead law has been filed in the
United States district court by former
Senator ]. Hamilton Lewis, in an at
tempt to o whisky valued at
$500. 900 stored in Chicago warehouses.
The plaintiffs are distillers and 100
owners of bonded whisky. The bill
does not attack the validity Of the
prohibition amendment or of the Vol
stead law, but alleges no provisions
Of either measure a apply to whisky
deposited in government warehouses
by the direction of the government
before either measure was passed,
where the goods are now owned by
the same owners who deposited the
liquors on a contract to have it re-
turned when the government TAI was
paid.
The principal new point Of the COM
plainants is that the provision Of the
constitution against manufacture OF
liquor referred to manufacture after
and not before passage Of the amend
ment. They also claim they have a
right, under the law, 20 sell the whisky
for medicinal use.

COST OF PRODUCTION VARIES
Specialists Point Out FalIaey Of Con.
siderIna Average al Basis
for Figuring.

The fact that there Is a wide varia-
ton on individual farms in the cost
of producing any product has been
substantiated by recent cost surveys
conducted by specialists Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
Because Of this variation, the special
its point out, it Is q fallacy to consider
the average as representing the cost
Of production. For example, the aver
age cost Of wheat per bushel on the
481 farms studied by the specialists
last year was $2.54, but more than
80 per cent Of the farmers concerned
produced wheat at q cest above this
figure, ranging up to an extreme OF
$3.50 per bushel. Similarly the aver
age cost of cotton for the $40 farms
studied was approximately % cents
per pound. yet almost 60 per cent OF
the growers had costs above this aver
age.
The department now gives the re-
suits Of cost studies In the form OF
frequency tables in order to show the
proportion Of a product that is pro-
duced at or below a given cost and
to call attention to the importance Of
a bulk-line csst rather than average
cost In relation to price.

pLinu Manure j in This Manner Permits

ttA GlCtftCteos
in an investigation embracing the
standards Of management on ten
farms selected by specialists of the
United States Department Of Agrt-
culture in the region mentioned, ana
the results are embodied In Farmers
Bulletin 97S, which may be had free
upon application to the division OF
publications.
The bulletin shows that the average
yield Of corn for the state is $3.50
bushels an acre, while on the ten
selected farms it Ia $3.50 bushels; the
average wheat yield for the state
Is 10 bushels and for the ten farms
1915; hay average for the state Is
LAB tons an acre and for the ten
farms 2.65 tons; while the three
farms that grew oats produced m
average Of As bushels an acre as COM
pared with the state average Of 1910
bushels.
A survey Of 37S farms in Chester
county on which exceptionally high
standards of management r main
tanned, including close attention to
handling of barnyard manure showed
an average corn yield of 65.3 bushels /;
wheat 24.S, and oats Ais. The COM
paratively high yields In Chester coun-
ty, the specialists say, cannot be
credited entirely to the way in which
manure Is handled, because the soil
in that county is much better than the
states average soil, but special at
tention to manur and its conserva-
ton has been an outstanding feature
Of that county's farming.

Mr.. BUSINESS MAN, ARE YOU
TRYING TO KEEP ABREAST?

A few years ago, every business
man or firm was a sort OF rule and
guide unto himself. Then the schools
were u according to the crude
ideas of what often proved to be a
crude teacher. Then a young man
went to a medical college and spent
four or five months and came back
and went to dosing out medicine, but
things are different now. A mar
must know more about anything he
undertakes unless he expects failure.
So it is that the questions are asked
Are you Mr.. Business Man, trying
to keep abreast of the times by read
ing journals and books on how to
conduct YOUR business along modern
lines?"
"An hour with a book would have
brought to mind
The secret that took him a whole
year to find.
The secrets he learned at enormous
expense,
Were all on a library shelf to COM
mence.
Alas, for our hero! too busy to read;
He was also too busy, it proved, to
succeed"
The undersigned is prepared to
take subscriptions to any of the fol
lowing publications all of which have
been prepared by Business Experts
and which have been o. K'ed by the
most forward looking business men
of the Nation. How many can we
