TO PREVENT POTATO LOSSES
Serious Damage Results From Careless
Handling at Harvest Time
Avoid Breaking Skin.

Growers and shippers are RESPONSE
BILE for much of the loss that results
from shipping diseased potatoes, since
Il large part OF such losses can be con-
trolled, If not entirely prevented, in
the field, according to specialists of
the bureau of markets of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Serious damage results from careless
handling when the potatoes are har-
vested. Too many persons, 1t Is said,
handle potatoes as though they were
so many cobblestones, rather than q
perishable product. Even the breaking
of the protective skin frequently
proves serious. Such injury not only
damages the appearance and neces-
states deep pairing of the tuber, but
affords ready entrance to infection.
Loss of this sort lies in every growers
and shippers power to control, 1t Is
pointed out.

SECURE BEST HARVEST HELP
Rovers are Usually Efficient but They
Are Liable to Leave Before Crops
Are All In.

Getting help for the harvest rush is
a problem which is best faced weeks
In advance. Grain, and orchard har-
vest seasons bring to many sections
large numbers Of travelling help who
start with crop In the South and
work north with the season to the
Canadian border. These workers are
usually efficient through long eX-
perlence, but they are likely TO feel
the urge OF the road and leave before
the farmer gets his crop all harvested,
ohliging him TO pay a much higher rate
TO secure the remainder of the crop
before II spells. Wherever efficient
local help can be obtained, II is to
be preferred TO the rOvers.

Desirable quality In the flesh OF
poultry Intended for table use depends
on the flavor of the flesh; ON the tex

on the distribution of both the flesh
and the larger masses of fat over the
carcass. Other things being equal, the

Caponizing makes the flavor Of cocks

Effects Of Age on Flavor.

make splendid eating as broilers or
fryers. The dellcacy of flavor usual.
" Is lost In decidedly old birds. AS
the bird grows older, the proportion
Of flesh to bone usually increases, at
least up to the period of full matur-
,ty. Often the large masses of flesh
found on such birds can be utilized
more satisfactorily than the smaller
ones found on young and scrawny
chickens.
Exercise affects the flavor and tex
ture Of poultry flesh, as In any kind
Of meat. 1t toughens the fibers and
the connective tissues, and lessons the
amount Of fat. 1t may also affect the
distribution of flesh on the carcass in
creasing the naturally strong, tough
muscles rather than the less-used, ten
der ones. In some birds, notably
chickens, the exercise can be con
trolled. Almost any poultry, however,
can safely be penned for Y few days
before killing.
