REPORT SHOWS
WHAT GARBAGE
HAULING COSTS
Figures Indicate Moving Re.
duction Plant Would In
crease Expense.

An analysis of hauling costs Of the
garbage collection department Of the
board Of sanitary commissioners contains
interesting information bearing upon the
ordinance now pending in the city coun-
ell which proposes TO move the garbage
reduction plant to a point at least five
miles outside the city limits. Citizens OF
West indianapolis have been urging the
removal of the plant from Sellers farm
for several years because of Objectionable
odors emanating from it.
The low average cost Of transporting
garbage from collection points in the city
to Sellers farm, which is inside the city
limits but about three and one-half
miles by automobile from the Circle, is
fixed at 20 cents a ton, per mile, by the
analysis.
To move the plant five miles outside
the city limits would add 81 a ton to the
cost Of transportation, the report shows.
Last year approximately $4,000 tons of
garbage were hauled to the plant, in
dicatIng the increased cost of operating
five miles outside the city limits would
be 500, 900 a year.

the Standardization of practically the
entire Bermuda onion industry in the
United States.
United States grades for Bermuda
onions were recommended by the De-
partment Of Agriculture in the spring
of 1918. The same year the state Of
Texas legislated the compulsory grad
ing of Bermuda onions according to the
grades promulgated by the department
and adopted by the Texas state depart
ment of agriculture.
When the onion shippers In the Goa
chella valley requested inspection serv-
ice from the California state depart
ment of agriculture in 1921. the depart
ment indicated that it would be Inn
practicable TO render such service I'M
less suitable grades were agreed upon
as basis for inspection. Accordingly,
the shippers made comprehensive
study of onion grades and decided
finally TO use the grades recommended
by the Department of Agriculture. Per-
haps the most important consideration
leading to this decision was the fact
that since the adoption of the depart
ment's grades In Texas there has been
a considerable decrease in the number
OF rejected Texas onion shipments.

BETTER QUALITY OF POULTRY
Platte County (Neb.) Farmer Lists
Chickens, Geese and Ducks, All
Purebred.

A noticeable feature of the Better
Sires" campaign conducted by the vari-
Gus states and the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture is the excel
lent quality of poultry Kept on general
farms. Typical of this condition is a
statement recently received from a
farm in Platte county, Nebraska. The
principal live stock kept were Short
horn cattle and Poland China swine.
In addition the owner listed the fol-
lowing poultry, all of which was
standard bred: Seventy-five Barred
Plymouth Rocks. IS Black Langshans.
100 Brown Leghorns. 100 Rhode Island
Reds, three White China geese and
three Pekin ducks. 1t was noteworthy
that. whereas the poultry was all of
pure breeding. the swife herd includ-
ed a number of grade females. The
sires kept for all classes of stock were
Of pure breeding-a requirement for

NEW DEVICE CLEANS GRAINS
moves Smut, Dust, Etc, at the
Time Of Thrashing.

A new device known as an aspirator
has been designed by specialists of the
bureau of markets, United States De-
partment of Agriculture, for cleaning
wheat and other small grains by re-
moving smut. dust. and dockage at the
time of thrashing. This device is at
tached to the grain delivery spout, and
tests Indicate that II removes approx
mately one-third of what ordinarily Is
classed as dockage. The use of this
device will enable farmers to keep for
feed a part of the seeds and other for
eign material ordinarily hauled to the
elevator and lost to the producer; 1t
also improves the quality of grain by
removing from II a large part of the
smut dust and Objectionable foreign
material. A recleaner. for attachment
to the deck Of thrashing machines, al
so designed. gives promise Of being eff
ficient, ii is said.

test the farm bureau center Is the
unit. and every farm bureau in the
contest advances one carload of hogs
to be exhibited and rated by an ex-
pert Judge. Every farm bureau cen

centers as well as a boys pig club
took part in the contest Ten car
loads were auctioned in addition to
seven cars that had been in the con
test.
The county agent leader says in his
annual report TO the United States De

seems to be no more convincing argu-
ment to a hog producer than to see
he actual sales Of his animals take
place and 10 know the difference in

Farm bureau sales of this kind were
started in California in 1916 on the
initiative Of the county agent of Kern
