MARKETING NEEDS SKILL

A shrewd farmer who had talked at
many farm institutes, who had seen
agriculture in every corner of Wis
consin and in many other states, a
man Of wisdom and balance, told us
the other day what he thought the
reason that many Wisconsin farmers
do not profit from their farms as
they should.
"The trouble is" he explained, 1.-THE
farmer is no business man. He has
put too much time on raising his stuff
and not enough on the proper mark
citing methods. Thousands of cooper
alive enterprises have failed because
the men in control lacked experience.
Now we are handling quite lot of
our cheese and butter through the
cooperative method. We are grad
1ally accommodating the intelligence to
handle marketing problems.
"This fall most farmers sold their
potatoes within few weeks after
digging. The whole crop was dump
ed on the market faster than the
trade can absorb sales. There IS
great lack of storage and credit faci-
lities for holding the potatoes and
marketing them in slow, orderly
way. Most of the grain of the coun-
try is sold soon after the harvest. The
bulk of the hog crop is sold in few
fall and winter months. Then prices
are at their lowest and most of the
farmers therefore get the bottom
price.
"All this waste and this rush sell
ing of farm crops goes on year after
year. Until we have orderly and in
telligent marketing of our crops, just
so long will the farmers get low
prices"
Many farmers know their weakness
in marketing skill and they are try
ing to remedy it as fast as possible
But more education is needed in
marketing. More information, more
facts, fewer notions are needed if we
are to solve our marketing puzzle

hopes of cooling off the hot engines
of the Falls gang, and to see what
was the matter with the gas on his
team, took time out. This stategic
move had results, for on the resump-
ton of the race the Staples team
made their first field goal of the
game. This ended the first quarter,
which was the best part of the game
from a basketball standpoint.
At the beginning of the second
quarter it was evident that the game
was safely tucked away for the home
team, McKinnon making his first
basket of the evening, with paddy"
adding another. Collins and Smith
were put in to relieve McKinnon and
Gibson in this quarter. The Chevro-
let team could not get going to much
over the speed limit" mark, which
was not enough to keep up to the fast
moving home team. The half ended
with River Falls out in front by an IS
tot count.
The second half was much like the
first. A few minutes passed with
neither team scoring and Dawson, not
satisfied with the showing of his
mates, dribbled through the st. Paul
five for basket. Seeing that this
was not sufficient stimulant he repeat
ed his performance. In the last quar-
ter the locals took turns at making
baskets. Gibson breaking into the
scoring column with field basket.
Belmer Hippo" Carisch saw action in
this quarter. The St. Paul team, al
though showing dashes of speed and
bits of clever work, were outplayed
at every point of the game. Coach
Cannon was unable to get his Chew
rolet through the five man defense
by Captain McKinnon and his mates.
paddy" Driscoll showed them all
how to make field baskets having 6
to his credit. Every man on the team
played good basketball, with Dawson
taking the honors on defensive work.

A powerful help in getting costs
would be detailed keeping of books on
representative farms. As yet many
farmers keep no books whatsoever.
Actual farm production figures
should be gathered over long period
by the college of agriculture and all
the exceptional material weeded out,
so that cost figures, at least approx
mately correct, can be obtained.
Business in the city is successful
only in proportion to accurate book
keeping. The farmer should borrow

of the spirit + achievement which had
characterized the efforts of the found
ers of the nation-the same spirit
which carried he early pioneers across

emulate in their efforts to build
homes, which are the bulwark OF
American Liberties, where but few
years ago there was only a desert

Speaking numbers on the program
were interspersed with the commun-
ity singing of patriotic songs led by
r. H. Briggs with Miss Beatrice Sherk
at the piano.
The afternoon hours passed quickly
as one attraction after another was
carried out on scheduled time. The
fireworks display at $3.50 ended the
days festivities. for many, but humid
reds remained to enjoy dancing at the
open air pavilion at the Highlands

Pastures Benefit From
Application of Manure

Five to eight loads Of manure to the
acre applied to the old pasture Will
be found a good practice on many
farms. On most farms there comes
period in the year when the manure
cannot be applied to cultivated land,
with the result that too often 1t is
allowed to pile up in the barnyard
where it rots so rapidly that much Of
Its value is lost Before 1t is finally
spread.
It is at this time that the appllca-
tlon to the pasture is likely to prove
profitable. In this way. the farmer
gets immediate results from the APP
Dlication; he gets all the value there
Is. while If it is left in the pile, half
Of the plant food may be lost.

Prevent Depreciation
I of Farm Implements
f1Best Plan Is Proper Housing
of Machines in Winter.
We hope the farmers Of Charles
County will take advantage Of this

There are two kinds Of implement
depreciation. namely, depreciation due

-iue TO rot and rust when not In use.
Manufacturers Of hlgh-grade lmple-
ments are continually striving TO i'm
lproye their products by putting better
material and better workmanship into
the machinery, which lessons wear.
With these advantages supplemented
with Intelligent use and care Of the op-
orator, this form of depreciation can
be kept to the minimum. The greatest
depreciation. however. is the result Of
rot and rust which takes place when
implements are left standing ln-fence
corners or in fields exposed to the ele-
ments, such as moisture. freezing.
thawing and the hot sun. The wooden
parts will crack and warp out Of
shape while the metal will be destroyed
by rust. AS result much labor Is
lost In getting the machinery ready the
following season and, besides, they will
never work as well as they did when
they were new.
The best method Of preventing this
sort Of depreciation is by the proper
housing of machinery. The Implement
shed should not be made expensive.
put should be made with tight roof,
Ether inclosed on all sides or open on
