Placing Concrete in Gold Weather
- By w. G. KAISER. Agricultural Engineer ----
By ". 6. KAISER

The fundamental thing to know
about placing concrete in cold wealth
,er ID. that concrete must not freeze
before it hardens. This destroys its
natural hardness and Near-resisting
qualities. 1t also weakenA its bearing
strength. Although 1t. ts. very easy to
keep concrete from freezing it would
be better not to start any farm inn
provement in freezing weather unless
the proper precautions are to be taken
to protect the fresh concrete from
the cold. However, II these precautions
are taken there is no reason why
farm improvements with concrete
should not be carried out regardless
OF the low temperature.
Since warmth and moisture are re-
quired for the proper hardening Of
concrete, cold weather work should be
planned with these necessities in view.
Both the mixing water and the aggre-
gates should be heated. The cement
forms such a small portion Of the bulk
Of concrete that 1t need not be heated,
but 1t Is well to keep it In a warm
place for a few hours before it is used.
The nearer the water ID to the boil
ing point the better will be the re-
suits, because it will take longer to
dtssipate the heat and cool the mix
ture. There are several methods used
for heating aggregates.%sA simple arr
rangement that any farmer can con-

The rise in farm products during

The rise in farm products during
February is Of greater significance
than any other development that has
occurred since these prices broke in
the fall of 1920. The deadlock,
which has existed as a result Of farm
products falling faster and farther
and the change q frightened the
business situation. As is usually the
case when q great fall Of prices oc-
ours under conditions which unsettle
confidence, farm products fell below
the normal level and in some in
stances below the pre-war level.
Survey of Agricultural Staples.
= Wheat has had a rise Of 40 cents a
bushel from the low point, and should
bring a good price as long as Russia is
not an exporter. Hogs at $40 per
hundred weight in Chicago arc on a
profitable basis, and helped corn.
Stock cattle are doing much better.
During the boon period, while prices
were rising, many cattlemen became
over-cxtended, and in many instances
banks became over-extended in grant
ing them accommodations. A great
amount Of cattle paper was put af1oat
through cattle-loan companies, and.
bought by investors who were under
no obligations to renew it. and who
counted upon having their money
when the paper fell due. The turn of
the times came, prices fell, bank de-
posts declined, the cattle loans fell
due, banks needed their money to
meet the calls of depositors, and cat
tie had to be sold. 1t was a mistake
to create 80 much indebtedness. The
cattle business would have had more
real prosperity without borrowing so
much The borrowing resulted in a
competition for stock cattle that
drove prices up to a level that was
dangerous for those who did the fin
fishing and ultimately brought disaster
all around
The excessive supplies of cotton
are being steadily reduced. and the
price has advanced two cents from
the low point of January.
The Business Outlook.
lit will be seen from the foregoing
survey of the agricultural staples that
q pronounced improvement has taken
place in the position Of the farming
population, which is precisely where
the business situation has been weak.
1t probably is safe to say that the
worst has been passed, and that on
the whole the farmer will not lose the
ground that has been gained.
For one thing, a rise such as has
occurred does much to restore conf
dence in values. 1t has shown chow
easily the situation may right itself
with a slight change in conditions.
n that there never was ground for
the extreme pessimism that prevailed.
Pessimism, like optimism, is infec-
tious, and when everybody is thinking
the same way either state of mind
will run to the extreme. When times
we're booming common opinion vas
ready to insist they would go on that

respond to the decline In price of ma
terials. and stock on hand. and ST.
752,901 represented loss on goods
sold. This was due to the general
decline of prices and to the inability
of farmers to buy implements. Other
manufacturers Of implements Jared
likewise. This shows anything but a
healthy state Of industry. The wage
earning class will not prosper when
the farmers cannot buy implements,
very little Of any manufactured goods.
The Deere report to stockholders
states that sales in 1921 were only
81 per cent of what they were in 1890,
and that it was necessary to make
radical reductions throughout the or
g~anization. The factories with one
exception were closed in the late
winter and. spring of 1921 n re-
NAMED closed throughout the re-
mainder of the year. That tells how
present conditions affect the en-
ployees of Deere & Company.
The continuation Of this situation
is largely due to railroad charges that
are excessively high in their relation
to the value Of the freight carried.
particularly in the case Of farm prod
ucts and other bulky materials. In
the iron and steel industry five tons
Of incoming materials are required
to make a ton of product, and the
increase in freight charges more than
accounts for the difference between
the prices Of the principal products
nov and before the war. Railroad
charges cannot be reduced unless
operating costs are reduced, and the
wages Of railroad employees and cost
Of coal are the principal items in
railroad expenditures.
