which the farmers were forced to ac-

for the millers was said to range from

spectors were in conference here to-
day with Kansas pure bred stockmen
and dairymen concerning methods of
standardizing tuberulin tests. The
meeting, which was held in the SUI
preme court room at the state house,
was called by ]. H. Mercer, state live
stock sanitary commissioner, follow
ing complaints that in recent months
post mortems have shown many con-
demned animals were healthy.
Speakers declared the importance
of wedding out tuberculosis infected
cattle from herds can not be over en-
phasized because the disease spreads
to humans. Federal inspectors stated
that tuberculosis may exist altho the
ordinary examination of the carcass
fails to show positive evidence of the
disease. A thoro examination would
reveal presence of the infection,
which is possibly in the incipient
stage, it was said.

Farm and Orchard
OH. j. Wheater)


Things to be considered before SELL
ing potatoes are several this year.
There is the supply, the market price
this fall, your own storage, maturity
of crop, labor supply, and personal
needs.
FIRST, the supply and demand will
govern prices this fall and next
spring. The favorable fall has in
sured the crop estimate from 10 per
cent to over 65 per cent of a crop.
The experience of last year taught
many that il is better to accept a
fair price than the chances of big
profits if the crop is storeo. If the
market is flooded this fall tn only
alternative is low prices.
Second, your storage must be con-
sidered. In average storage the
shrinkage is from to per cent by
weight and labor cost at least 6 cents
per bushel extra. We can make no
weather prediction but unless one is
sure of good storage under unfavor-
able weather, it is better to be salts
fed with the fall prices.
Third, the maturity of your crop.
If your crop is not thoroughly ripe,
you will have a great loss in keeping
what you are offered now, than 'un
any risk.
Fourth, the labor supply is import
tant, both this fall when you have
corn and potatoes demanding your
attention and the time to market is
to be considered. 1t may be that you
will be able to store in cellars and
market when farm work is not so
pressing, at an advantage.
Fifth, your personal needs which
needs no comment, and really will
govern the disposal Of any crop.
