Produce Review

Egg receipts are lighter consump-
ton is more nearly equal to produc-
ton, and fewer eggs are being plac-
ed in storage. Moderate prices gen.
orally prevailing have stimulating
consumption.
The preliminary report issued by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture on August gives the fol-
lowing comparative stocks on August
1:
1922. 1O.OSO,0OO cases; 1921. 1906
900 cases; excess, 2,425,OOO cases.
A larger volume of spring chickens
is reaching the market, with but lit

briefly outlined the progress which
has ben made by the association up
to the present time.
Despite the fact that organization
was begun only one year ago, more
than $4,000 contracts have been
signed, he said. He also outlined the
buying and leasing of warehouses,
the passing of the cooperative mar
keting law, the system of making
advances to members of the asso'
citation, the development of the grad
ing system and the training OF
graders to take care of the leaf
brought in by members of the asso-
citation. All this, he pointed out, has
resulted in about $4,000 farmers sell
in gtheir tobacco crops as one man
to representatives of the various
manufactures.
E. ]. Kinney, a member of the
station agronomy staff, outlined the
development of the hurley strain of
tobacco since it was first discovered
So years ago and explained the
methods that must be followed at
the present time in order to produce
the smooth leaf of good color and
finish that is demanded by manufac-
turers.
Plant breeding as means of de-
veloping uniform strains of hurley
tobacco and controlling diseases,
especially root rot, was outlined by
DIR. w. d. Valleau, the station plant
pathologist. More than so per cent
of the tobacco growers in the hurley
section are losing money each year
as a result of rot rot. the speaker
declared. He outlined the method of
developing resistant strains OF bur
ley and spoke briefly of the success
which farmers in Central Kentucky
are meeting in growing the resistant
varieties as concentrations.
The meeting was concluded with
an explanation of the hurley associa-
ton grades by, Mr.. Stone, who point
ed out the significance of the SO
grades which have been established
by the organization.

HENS HAMPER HoPPERs

On the Scottsbluff reclamation pro-
ject, Mitchell, Nebraska, where the
grasshopper pest has been particular
ly bad this year, various methods of
control have been tried out. One of
the most successful methods observ-
ed so far was used by farmer who
has a quarter-section Of alnd.
Five hundred chickens divided into
lots OF 100 were kept In colony
houses on 80 acres Of the farm and
moved about as occasion required.
As a result, on the half Of the farm
where the chickens were pastured
there were only about 20 per cent as
many hoppers as on the other 80
acres. This is a better showing
than has been made on most Of the
fields where poison was distributed.
The owner and the renter found
the method profitable. After they
had used what they needed Of the
poultry for domestic purposes, and
after the weasels and coyotes had

the chopped corn as the silo is being

also should be taken to see that the
corn in the center of the pit is tramp

"If farmers wish to wait with their

That Christian nations might abide

In memory's shrine thy tear has dried
From starlit-land where anthems swell
An angel soldiers clear notes tell
OF love and peace--thy son who died
