OUR FARMERS CORNER

the country shipping point and the city plant the United States Depart ment of Agriculture made an inves- tigation on the Baltimore market. Records kept on more than HOO cans showed that the loss between the country station and the city plant was less than 1 per cent. The loss on trains, probably due to spilling, was only O.19 per cent; and from the city railroad platform to the plant is was 0.55 per cent.
 However, it was found that when the milk was weighed in the city plant there was a shortage of 2.56 per cent on the amount shipped ac- cording to can measure in the country. Of this shortage, 0.74 per cent was due to actual losses, while 1.82per cent was the difference be- tween can measure and weight. This is easily accounted for by the fact that cans become dented and batter ed, which decreases their holding capacity.
 In a former investigation by the
 department an even greater discre- pancy was found between can meas ure and weight, the difference being over per cent. It would seem that there would be less trouble between producers and dealers if the milk were weighed at both ends of the line. arr .-"."

The material is to be distributed by the Bureau of Public Roads, United States Department of Agriculture, as were large quantities which were helpful to many States in road build ign last season. Most of the lumber was intended by the Army for the construction of a pier at Charleston, s. C., and is.suitable for highway bridges.
