Girl Scout Cabin
Nedrs Completion

| Not knowing exactly how to. realize
their dream, they called upon DR.
Grapp, who has previously demon
strated his skill in rustic architecture
He agreed to help and proceeded at
once to draw up the plans and speci-
fcations for the cabin. r..
The execution of the plans, while
supervised by DR.. Grapp, has been
done largely by Clarence Grapp of
Minneapolis assisted by the Park
workmen. The gathering Of the de-
sired materials, however, was directed
by Park Commissioner Marion John
son. All mason work will be done
free of charge by Mr.. Nan Byram.
On Tuesday of last week members Of
the American Legion volunteered their
time to help the workmen. The clean
ing up Of the island which they did
made a very noticeable improvement
in the appearance of the setting.
. Not only were members of the
Legion willing to devote their time to-
ward making the undertaking success
full; but the organization as such con-
tributed twenty-five dollars to the
fund. Mr.. F. M. Isham also gener-
ously donated ten dollars and further
agreed to assist the girls by selling
them the roofing at cost. AS the
building of their home entails the ex-
penditure of considerable more money
than the Scouts have in their treasury,
it is planned to give the public on the
opening day the opportunity of show
ing their goodwill by making any
contribution they may desire.
The opening day will be observed in
about ten days from the publication
of this issue at which time the public
will be invited to be present. The
Scouts will then show their hospitality
by serving refreshments to all visitors.

feeds alone in 1920 representing a value of approximately $2o0, 100000, little is known by the average buyer about the marketing Of this commodity, says MT Wheeler, >,-.-
 The availability of feed stuffs locally produced which may be used as srbsti- tutes, and potential supplies and pro- duction in surplus producing srcrIcns are said to be the most important fac tors controlling local feed prices. Wide variations in prices. in heavy consuming and producing centers, and in sections where only moderate supplies are han dled are attributed to the prices paid by individual dealers, unsold feed in transit which Is frequently disposed of at sacrifice on arrival, grade, quality, whether the feed is bought for cash or credit, and whether the purchase is for immediate or future delivery. MT. Wheeler advises buyers to ascertain carefully all these facts in connection with prices quoted before placing or ders. 7.
 MT. Wheeler has made a careful study of the marketing of mill feeds and his findings are contained In Unit ed States Department 0f Agriculture Bulletin 1124. entitled The Marketing of Mill Feeds.

along the line from the field to the mar ket. The council also made recrnmen- dations on the utilization of the poor CT potatoes and culs kept on the farm, such as storing for future marketing feeding to live stock and, in certain To- calities, selling to starch and flour fac tories. It was also the advice ct the potato council that fields be picked clean of culls and diseased tubars so as to protect succeeding crops from dis ease.
 Another group of department men was called together by the ass;skant secretary to take up the prooterns Of the cotton farmers. These men arc working, on the problem of what the de- partment's policy shall be for the pres ent in making recommendations for fighting the boil weevu, the develop ment of one-variety cotton communities. the growing of a diversity of crops, etc.
 A plan similar to the commodity council plan was used recently when q group Of men from various bureaus was brought together to consider the que@ tion of the use of peat as a so4I im- prover or fertilizer. AS a result Of all the information brought together and discussed from. various. angles the de- partment decided to make a public statement to the effect that peat has . very low fertifizing value, contrary to the claims frequently made by those wishing to sell 1t for fertilizer.
 It is thought that the council plan will result in getting out prompt rec concentrations in emergencies and far mers and others will be able to get a concise view of the departments stand and the reasons for making recUnmen- dations.

principles which must be kept in mind if good results are to be obtained. First, the storage place should be cool so as to keep the tuber dormant 35 to 40 degrees is preferable. Second, certain amount of moisture is desirable; that is, the air should not be so moist that a moisture film is deposited on the tubers, but it should be high enough to prevent evap- oration of the moisture contents of tha tuber. Third, aeration is eshention for best preservation. Fourth, light should be kept from the stored tuhers.
 ''If only a small amount of potatoes arc to be kept, probably the best place is the dark house cellar with the potatoes stored in peach baskets. If quite a number of bushels are to be kept, a crat- cd bin could be built in the cellar with the tubers not more than three feet deep.
 "of course if many potatoes are to be stored each year, a regular potato stor- age space should be built Generally speaking, however, for this county, the house cellar that is kept ccol, dark and well ventilated. where tubers are kept in small bins which are not piled too high is the best place to store spuds Where many thousands of bushels are to be kept, 1 a regular potato storage plant should be buib. The county agent will be glad to talk over plans for such a plant if any , one in the county Is interested.
 l Many men in this section place their potatoes in wood sheds until the weather gets cold, before placing them in the | cellar. This is good plan, but the po- tatoes should all be in the cellar, now, because of danger of freezing"

PEAT FOUND TO HAVE
 LOW FERTHIZER VALUE

Peat, in recent years widely a6vef- tised as 8 fertilizer is not to be com pared with mineral fertilizers as means of increasing crop production. This Is the essence Of a statement that has just been made by the United States department o6 agriculture as a result of many investigations on tho subject.
 Special processes, such as the 'bac- terization" of peat, occasionally are al- legged to give 1t unusual fertilizing pow CTS, but tests have not suhstantiated these claims. An English investigator a few years ago reported good results EEEeIeBee. in tais country has. rot sup ported his theory. Nos laboratory pro- cess for the 'bacteization" of peat has been discovered which materially in- proves it for fertilizer.
 The peat or 'rhumus" that has been marketed in this country as a fertilizer or plant stimulant has shown decided lack of uniformity, but this is to be ex- pected when. it is known Slat peat de- posfts are the slow accumulations of layers of plant material of different kinds. The rather high percentage of nitrogen occasionally found in peat and muck is due not to the presence of available nitrogen, but the accumula- tion of nitrogeneous material that Is not available for the use of plants, the more soluble substances having been lost. A well deconposed layer of peat has in it very little available plant food of any kind.
 Some kinds of peat are very useful

NEW PLAN FOR SOLVING
 .AGRICULrURAL PROBLEMS


 The commodity council plan is the name given to a new way of handling certain of the big agricultural problems by the United States department of az riculture. In the past different phases of g crop situation, for instance, have been handled separately by the various bureaus and offices. The new plan which recently has been put into opera tSon brings all the various persons !n- terested in the problem together int0 a council where each may present his views and where a definite inclusive pothcy may be decided upon.
 Already councils have been called to discuss the cotton and potato situatic-s and recommendations have been m ~ for action that would be beneficial in view of present conditions. Department men who are specialists in the culture of the crops, on soils, diseases, pests, grading, and marketing each contrib uted to the final recommendations From time other commodity councils will be called to take up problems that are troubling the producers of various other crops and live stock.
 As a result e the potato co15csi it is expected that the usual waste and loss resulting when a very large crop ts raised may be greatly reduced. The per capita consumption of potatoes :n the United States is usually about 3.2 bushels, but this year enough potatoes have been produced to supply each per- Son with about four bushels. Because of this situation which was diScourag- ing to potato raisers the department, through this council, made certain rec concentrations, which were sent out to the principal potato-producing states. The council recommended that farmers be advised to. carefully grade their crop and ship only the best, suggesting that if all of the crop. including culls, were shipped food would rot or spoil in the central markets or in transit, markets would be glutted and the price forced down to a ruinous level Such market- ing would result in much waste all

 A neglected orchard is always a menace to other orchards in the neigh borhood and in sections where there are many commercial plantings much damage may be done by insect pests and diseases that have their source in badly infected trees. In some states q neglected orchard s practically de- clared by law to be a public nuisance and is treated accordingly. If the owner will not clean it up. public off, cials do 1t and the expense becomes a lien on the property until paid.
 As rule, says the author of the bulletin, a much-neglected orchard does not justify it's existence If an orchard is worth keeping it is worth giving good attention; otherwise. the trees merely cucumber the ground and inter fere with it's use for other purposes If an apple tree is not of value for fruit production it may be worth converting into tool handles. plane blocks, and other useful things.

 "Black heart may be the result of chill ing of potatoes, or it may be the result of lack of ventilation, or 1t may be due to heating or sweating; or still again it maye be dues~to a combination of these causes, but probably the biggest caus eis the lack of ventilation.
