POTATO INDUSTRY
TREBLES In VALUE
Five Steps Are Responsible, Ac-
cortIing to Russell, for the
Decades Growth.

Potato growers of Wisconsin are
concentrating a decade of progress
in the "spud" industry. Ten years
ago the Wisconsin Potato Growers as
sociation was organized for the pur-
pose of improving production and in
spection of the product.
How well the effects Of this organi-
cation have succeeded is shown by the
remarkable growth Of the industry in
ten years. From 100000 acres planted
in 1910, the area has grown to $4,000
acres in 1922. Ten years ago only
$9OO0,00O was obtained for the Bad
ger tuber crop; today it has almost
doubled in value. The increased yield
per acre, 13 bushels in a decade, would
supply the ordinary American family
with "Murphies'' for a year.

progress of the potato industry

the history Of the crop in Wisconsin.

Beeing Young Bull Is
Not Profitable Practice

Don't send the promising purebred
bull to the butchers block before he
has had chance TO show, through his
daughters, his quality.
This is the warning Of the men at
the New York state college of agricul-
ture who are encouraging the use Of
better sires.
They say that many times farmers
have disposed of young bulls only to
ind that some Of their daughters have
developed into remarkable producers.
They cite figures that show on many
farms the tendency is decidedly for
the use Of young bulls and then to dis
pose Of them before their real worth
can be learned
In study Of 376 purebred bulls it
was found that As were under nine
months of age; 121 were one year of
age; 112 were two years Of age; 81
were three years of age; 10 were four
years of age; IL were five years of
age; 5 were six years of age and only
1 was seven years of age.
Ordinarily stock men figure that a
bull must be five years old before
much can be known about his first
daughters, and seven years must
elapse before there is definite knowl-
edge of his breeding qualities. Yet of
all tfe bulls considered in the survey,
only Is were Of sufficient age to admit
Of an estimate Of their value.

Sheep Need Protection
From Sun in Hot Season

There are very few days from June
on till fall that sheep do not need
some protection from the sun. Where
tillable fields are pastured and in
closed with wire fencing, there is little
provision for Supplying shade. On a
great many farms all the shade trees
have been removed from the fields to
facilitate cultivation.
Some flock owners supply shade for
their fiocks by allowing the sheep to
occupy the sheepshed during the sum-
mer months. This is a good plan as
the stable can be frequently relittered,
kept dark and sanitary. BY removing
the windows and substituting light
frames covered with thin muslin the
flies can be kept out and the. stable
will remain cool and be. well venti-
lated.
Where large spraying trees, small
groves, or portion of the woodlot are
not available for furnishing shade
some artificial means should be con-
structed This can be done by setting
posts in the ground about ten feet
apart, mailing cross-pieces to the top
and laying roof made of old lumber,
overlapping just enough to shed water.
This kind Of shade answers the pur-
pose, is cool and sanitary.

Most Important Breeds
of Ducks for Marketing

Ducks are the most valuable of all
domesticated waterfowl, for CONNER
cial purposes.
Ducks can be successfully raised
in almost any locality where they have
a good supply of green food and plenty
of drinking water In recent years
the production Of broiler ducks for
market has become a large business.
The raising OF ducks for the produc-
ton of eggs for market, while still in
its infancy, promises to grow to con-
siderable proportions. The most inn
portant breeds of ducks for the produc-
ton of market poultry are the Picking,
Aylesbury and Rouen.
AS ducks are rather hardy birds
they do not require more than ordina-
rily good shelter from the weather. It
is a custom to place them in low-built
houses on a range, where they will
have plenty of room to range. Duck
houses should be placed on ground
that has sufficient slope to drain 1t at
all times of the year. The floors OF
houses for ducks should preferably be
Of sandy soil.
The ground composing the floor of
the houses should be dug out to the
depth of six inches each spring and
fall, and replaced with fresh soil. The
floor should be kept continually COW
cred with a litter of dry straw on
which the ducks can roost or rest at
night. This litter should be taken out
frequently and dried in the sun, and
whenever 1t becomes filthy it should
be removed, the floor carefully
cleaned, and fresh litter placed in the
houses.
A small house well suited for ducks
is II feet wide, 16 feet long, Z feet
high in front. 5 feet high at the back.
With a yard so feet square the house
and yard are sufficiently large to ac-
commodate 65 ducks.
Ducks need lots Of fresh air and in
building the houses provision should
be made for abundant ventilation. II
a large number of ducks are kept in
a close house, the air will get so bad
that some ducks will actually go blind
from the irritation of their eyes by
the ammonia arising from the manure
Few articles. of equipment are essen
tial for duck houses, the principal ones
being water vessels, feed hcppers and
nests. Where ducks are supplied with
an ample swimming pool they will
have a sufficient water supply; where
they do not have this water supply
they must have water continually be-
fore them in troughs, small galvanized
iron buckets, stone crooks or water
fountains.

Prompt Handling
Of Potato Crop
Government Bulletin Points
Out Great Importance of
Heavy Early Shipment.

prepared by the United States Department
of AgricultUre.)
Prompt, quick, careful handling of
the early potato crop is the keynote Of
the marketing problem, according to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. The market season for any
early potato district lasts only a few
weeks and into that short time must
be condensed the net results of the
seasons work and planning Farmers
bulletin 1916, just published, tells how
the crop is sold in the leading early
potato sections; the location, shipping
points, and relative Importance of the
heavy early-shipping districts are
shown; kind and source of information
which the grower should use are de-
scribed; and the grower told how to
make the most of them in marketing
his crop.
Factors to Study.
Study is better than guess work, says
the bulletin. There are number of
factors to consider and the grower
should keep in touch with crop news,
shipment reports, and market quota
lions. Study Of the best Official re-
ports until experience makes it pos
sible to size up their practical mean
ing almost at glance, is a practical
and profitable part Of the work of
marketing.
Before the time of planting the
grower who studies conditions will be
able to figure with a certain degree of
accuracy the probable market situa-
ton for early new potatoes. The price
of early potatoes seems to vary accord
ing to the size of the main crop tire
year before and the quantity Of old
stock available for shipment after jan
uary 1, as well as according to ship
ments Of the new early crop. For ex-
ample the average price of new pota-
toes in 1917 was nearly double that OF
1915, yet about the same number Of
carloads Of new early stock were
shipped in each Of the two years. But
the 1917 new crop followed short old
crop of which the shipments were light
after January, while the 1916 new crop
followed u0dVy LHd1u crop.
Success In Marketing.
While the selling end of the potato
question deals mainly with the crop
when ready for market, it is well to
bear in mind that success in marketing
depends much on having the right
stock at the right time. The variety
should be one that is marketed in large
quantities from the locality, thus max
ing sure Of carlot shipments throughout
the season and of plenty Of local cash
buyers.
The bulletin contains much Of in
terest regarding the various market
outlets for the small grower as well as
for the larger commercial planter and
copy may be obtained by writing to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, Washington, D. c., as long as
the supply lasts.

Right Time for Culling
Indifferent Laying Hens

Look for a high death rate among
farm poultry. The culling season,
when the Indifferent layer and all her
sisters should be disposed of to the
best advantage, is at hand. Culling
demonstrations are in order from June
to January
Nine hundred and eighty-six demon
strations were put on in 70 counties OF
Minnesota last season. Three thou
sand eight hundred and thirty-eight
locks. totaling 813,557 birds, we're
culled; 1OO,932 birds, or practically
one-third, were discarded as unproit-
able
"It is evident from these figures
SAYS N. e. Chapman, poultry special
list with the agricultural extension
division of the university, '.that about
one-third Of the farm focks should
be culled, and this .culling should be-
gin as soon as the hens begin to mott.
Early molters having small combs and
wattles and yellow legs of the Ameri-
can and Mediterranean breeds are the
ones that should be discarded. Such
fowls may be consumed Immediately,
canned for future use or put on the
market. This will give the remainder
Of the flock more room and better
chance all around. Sale of the nom
will provide fund for the pur-
chase of feed for the growing stock"

COW and the spud, organization, and
seed inspection were the five rungs in
the ladder that placed Wisconsin as
third highest potato state in the
Union"
Standardization Is Started.
The lowly potato received its first
recognition, according to the dean,
about quarter of a century ago when.
the late Prof. E. S. Golf started
series of tests at the Wisconsin expert
ment station to determine whether or
not 1t was necessary to change seed
because of run-out varieties. AS a re-
suit of fourteen years of trial, Golf
showed that old standard varieties
could be kept up by careful selection.
To determine the best varieties for
Wisconsin the experiment farm tested
100 varieties from 1901 to 1905. When
J. G. Milward took charge of the
potato development work, the testing

Progress Being Made in
Drive for Better Sires

During the month of May progress
in the Better Sires- Better Stock"
movement, fostered by various states
and the United States Department Of
Agriculture, showed material increase
in interest. During that month SOB
persons filed with the department writ
ten agreements to use pure bred sires
exclusively in their live stock breeding
operations for ali kinds of animals
kept, including poultry.
This number is more than twice that
for the preceding month, and is also
much above the monthly average for
the entire campaign. The total number
of live stock owners cooperating
with the states and department for the
use Of better sires is now 10,964, and
the live stock being improved by these
farmers aggregate nearly 100000
head.

Profitable to Produce
Crops of Best Quality
Poor Product Is Never in
Demand on Any Market.

The spread between the prices Of
apples Of good quality and apples of
poor quality, butter of good quality
and butter of poor quality, seed grain
of high test and seed grain of low
test, is always marked. In most cases
1t represents much more than the diff
ference in cost of producing good
product and poor one. In some cases
1t is utterly impossible to sell the poor
product, while the good product is GER
tain Of sale, no matter what the con-
dition of the market.
AS has been remarked, the differ
ence in the cost of production be-
tween good and poor products is rela-
lively slight. Good products may mean
a considerably greater initial outlay,
special machinery or pure bred live
stock. This investment will pay inter-
est for a number of years. Aside from
the initial investment, the principal
expense in obtaining good products is
incurred in the matter Of care. Proper
tillage, spraying, care of the product
after it has been produced these
make UP the main expenses. They
bear usually an extremely small pro-
portion to- the additional price Sc
cured for good products. In fact, care
is often not so much an expense as a
mental habit.
Apart from the profit, there is great
satisfaction In producing the best.
That alone is worth while to the
farmer who makes farming his life.

The production of silver foxes prop
erly managed, has proved a profitable
business. AS fur animal bred in cap
tivity the silver fox has no rival. Both
pelts and the live foxes for breeding
stock are in demand. To meet a gen
eral lack of authentic information re-
garding the real status of this indus
try, and the best management of silver
foxes on ranches, United States De
partment of Agriculture Bulletin No.
1851, Silver Fox Farming, by Frank
G. Ashbrook, biologist, has been is
sued.
Approximately 80 per cent of the
silver fox pelts sold on the fur market
are from ranch-bred foxes. During
February, 1922, 1878 silver fox pelts
from ranches all over the United
States and Canada were sold in Lon
don. A pelt from a United States
ranch-raised fox brought the top price,
$631.6S. Silver foxes are being grown
successfully in practically every one Of
the northern tier of States and in the
cooler parts of California, Colorado,
Kansas Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, In
diana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey
and Massachusetts. About 500 ranch
ers are engaged in the business in this
country; in 1922 there were between
$4,000 and 1900 foxes in captivity,
representing an investment of about
$8,oOO,OOo.
Quality Is Big Factor.
Quality, not quantity, is the factor
that counts in breeding silver foxes.
The location and plan of the ranch are
extremely important considerations, as
well as selection Of stock and feeding
and breeding. Foxes do not do well
under shiftless management The sue
cessful rancher is the one who has the
well-being of each individual fox con-
tinually in mind He must study the
behavior of his foxes at every oppor-
tunity and keep constantly informed
in regard to the best practices in their
management.
Quietness Is Essential.
Foxes should be kept as quiet as
possible, especially during the breed
