NEED OF BUSINESS PRACTICE
Many Cooperative Associations Have
Failed Because Of Lack of Flnan-
cial System.

Lack of proper financial systems
has been the cause Of failures in many
cooperative associations, say special
lists of the bureau of markets, United
States Department Of Agriculture, who
feel that now is an opportune time for
emphasizing the need of good business
practice among farmers.
The bureau of markets has much
information on systems Of accounts
ard business practice for cooperative
associations, and either directly or
through extension workers 1t is pre-
pared to give assistance In installing
good accounting systems for cooper
alive grain companies, cotton ware
houses, country creameries, fruit
shipping associations, egg circles, CO..
operative cheese manufacturing and
marketing associations, and cooper
alive grain elevators.
Short courses Of study IN market ac-
counting have been prepared and are
used In a number of colleges through.
out the country, and are also given
at field points where marketing as
sociations are numerous. Systems Of
accounts are furnished upon request,
and advice and assistance relative to
their installation is given through cor
respondence and by means Of bulle-
tins especially prepared for this pur-
pose.

The above society was organized in
1896 for the care and training of the
orphan and homeless children Of all
West Virginia.
Shortly after the organization the
late Hon. H. G. Davis, the great
friend of West Virginia orphans, gave
the Society home 70 rthe unfortun-
ate little ones, which is located in
Charleston, w. Va, supplementing
this generous gift by the yet more
helpful donation of $500 per month
since 1896. To this first building
Mr.. Davis has added two-story build
ing, thus greatly increasing our cap
acity for caring for orphan children.
Into this Home, named Davis Child
Shelter in honor of its generous do
nor, we have gathered 1909 homeless
little ones in whose behalf we make
this earnest appeal for Thanksgiving
Offering. We need to accumulate
surplus fund for winter supplies, and
to carry the Child Rescue Work far
into the new year. We would like to
give an extended account of what the
resuce Of these 1909 homeless orphans
means to the State, society and espe-
cially to themselves, but space will
not allow We appeal to every patri-
otic citizens to send a liberal Thanks

born; for GO days or more before
calving they usually received about 15
pounds of grain mixture +, II pounds
of alfalfa hay and Is pounds of corn
silage, ration containing approx
mately four times as much protein and
two and one-half times az much total
nutriment as the routine ration fed to
the dry cows Of the general herd.
The cows on test gave from 10000
to 10000 pounds of milk in the year;
that is. three to four times as much
as most of the cows in the general
herd. A part of this larger yield Is
due to the fact that the test cows
were better bred, but part also Is
due to the larger quantity. of feed they
consumed, say specialists Of the United
States Department of Agriculture IN
charge of the tests. How much of the
increased milk yield to attribute to
each Of these factors Is question of
great practical interest.

LIQUID MANURE is HELPFUL
OF Particular Value IN Garden When
Vegetables DO Not Make
Proper Growth.

American farmers, generally, are
not familiar with the great value Of
liquid manure, and the way TO apply
it. It Is exceptionally helpful in the
garden and especially when any par
ticular vegetable IS not showing the
proper growth. When any plants seem
weak and standing still, an appica-
ton Of liquid manure once a week for
a few weeks viii work changes that
will seem almost miraculous. Liquid
manure is reviver of dying plants
for it supplies nutrition In an easily
asslmiIated form. 1t may be easily
provided, and should be provided for
every garden.

METHOD OF APPLYING LIME
Some Farmers Obtain Good Results
by Using Manure Spreader With
Beaten Reversed.

Lime may be applied either in the
fall or spring. The proper method of
application is important from an eco
nomical standpoint. Scattering with
a shovel is wasteful and the distribu-
ton cannot be uniform. The method
used by some farmers with very good
results is to reverse the beaten of
the manure spreader by crossing the
drive chains. Then the apron may be
covered with canvas to prevent the
loss of the fine stone. With this
method 1t Is easy to get a uniform
distribution.
