tainty, but rather with that worry
entirely off their minds.
Bankers in Montana and in other
western states are lending financial
aid and giving their moral support to
the growers in this respect, in line
with banking opinion throughout the
country in favor of orderly distribu-
ton of all farm and range products,
as against the Improbable method
in former days of dumping the prod
ucts into the market at the peak of
the harvest seasons, with the newt
able result that prices crashed down
to low levels at which speculative
buyers made their purchases and
reaped all the profit, while the con-
sumers, when the finished product
reached their hands, paid an exorbit-
ant price at a level wholly out of
line with what the producer received.
"The wool market continues fun
.damentally strong" said Mr.. Staff.
"All circumstances indicate the lull
is only temporary, and that the fall
opening of samples for the light
weight season will start a rush of
by the mills. In short, I see
cloud in the sky for the growers"

ROOT CROPS WILL
KILL OUT WEEDS
ON RIGHT SOILS MAY BE USED
40 ADVANTAGE FOLLOWING
WHEAT OR OATS.
Principal Root Crops Are Mangels,
Sugar Beets, Rutabagas, Turnips
and Carrots; May Be Grown More
Cheaply Than Grain.

Root crops, especially turnips, arr
valuable for clearing the land OF
weeds. On light soils these crops can
be used to advantage to succeed oats
or wheat.
There is no waste in using root
crops for such a purpose, even in
large areas, for they can be utilized
as forage. Much of the material will
be eaten on the ground by sheep and
the rest can be put up as fodder,
which, while coarse and bulky in
proportion to its nutritive value does,
nevertheless, make a rich food for
animals, being about equal to grain,
pound for pound.
These crops require a fertile, loan
soil, and complete pulverization of
the ground is necessary before plant
ing. The seed must be sown in rows
wide enough to permit easy c%ultiva-
ton. Considerable handwork is at
taching to the thinning. The prin-
cipal root crops are mangels, sugar
beets, rutabagas, turnips and carrots.
They are of the greatest value as
feed for domestic animals where they
can be grown more cheaply than
grain, as is the case in Montana, Cali
fornia, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico,
Wisconsin and Oregon.

APPLE BUYERS LOOKING OVER
BITTER ROOTS BUMPER CROr

Several apple buyers have already
made their appearance in the Bitter
Root valley, looking over the orch
ards with a view to buying the 1928
crop, manager of the McIntosh-Mor-
clio Orchard company.
The McIntosh-Morel1o company is
one of the largest orchard enterprises
in the valley, having 1000 acres in
fruit at this time. The company is
a subsidiary of the Payton-Dupont
Securities company of New York, and
formerly was operated by the Univer-
sity Heights company.
MIR. Craig stated the company had
approximately 10000 apple trees on
the orchards which are near Darby
and a thousand bearing More1lo cher
~ trees now, but preparations are
being made to set out $4,000 more.
He said they had that number in the
nurseries now and had hoped to plant
them next year, but stated it was
doubtful if they would be ready for
next springs planting.

HOW FARMER CAN
PRESERVE MEAT
HAM AND BACON NEED HANGING
UP ONLY IF TO BE KEPT
BUT SHORT TIME
Thorough Curing, However, Is Es-
sential to Absolute Safe-Keeping;
the Making and Use of Yellow
Wash as a ~Preservative.

Ham and bacon, if to be kept only
a short time, need merely to be hung
out separately without covering.
For longer keeping, wrap them in
paper first and then in burlap, can
a or muslin, then bury them in a
grain bin or other suitable place, SC
as to gain a uniform temperature
and to keep away insects. 1t is es-
sential that the meat be thoroughly
cured if absolute safe keeping be
desired.
Smoked meat may be left in the
Smokehouse for some time during
moderate weather. The smokehouse
should be kept perfectly dark and
well ventilated to prevent dampness,
A dry, cool, dark cellar, or an attick
with a free circulation and no flies,
will be satisfactory.
After meat is smoked and has be-
come dry on the surface it should
be wrapped in parchment paper. Old
newspapers will do where parch-
ment can not be obtained. Then in
close it in heavy muslin or canvas,
and cover it with yellow wash or
ordinary lime white-wash, glue being
added. Hang each piece out so that
it does not come into contact with
other pieces. Do not stack the pieces
in piles.
The receipt for yellow wash is as
follows, the ingredients being suffi-
cient for 100 pounds ham and bacon:
Three pounds of barytes (barium
sulphate); .06 pound of glue; .08
pound of chrome yellow dead chro-
mate) .04 pound of flour. Half fill
a pail with water and mix in the
flour, dissolving all Jumps thorough
ly. Dissolve the chrome yellow in
a quart of water in a separate vessel
and add the solution and the glue
80 the flour. Bring the whole solu-
ton to a boil and add the barytes
slowly, stirring constantly. Make
the wash the day before it is re-
'quired. Stir it frequently when US
ang and apply it with a brush.

Food Manufacturer Launches
National Driue for New Recipes
OVER $500 TO BE PAID FOR BEST RECIPES RECEIVED

A nationwide campaign, which
will give every housewife in America
a chance to prove her inventive abil-
ity in the culinary field, was launched
May 1st by the Postum Cereal Co.,
Inc, of Battle Creek, Michigan, man
ufacturer of Grape-Nuts.
Grocers are being supplied with
circulars, for free distribution over
their counters, giving full p%articu-
lars of the plan which is expected to
reveal not less than one hundred new
uses for Grape-Nuts.
For more than 25 years, Grape
Nuts has been sold and advertised
as a cereal food. But interesting let
tiers from women in all parts of the
country, describing the many at
tractive dishes they are making with
Grape-Nuts, have convinced the man.
ufacturers that a national drive for

new uses of Grape-Nuts should devel-
op a host of valuable suggestions,
which will be warmly welcomed by
busy housewives everywhere.
Not less than 101 recipes or sug-
gestions will be purchased at $50
each and $4,000 additional, divided
into four awards of $1,000, $3.50,
$500, and $3.50 respectively, will be
paid for the four best recipes or sug-
gestions submitted. Good Housekeep-
ing Institute, conducted by Good
Housekeeping Magazine, will decide
the four recipes or suggestions an
titled to these special awards.
The conditions, as explained In the
newspaper advertising and circulars
in the hands of grocers, are simple
and easily complied with.

Combined figures, representing
all sections of the country, show thai

land letter of the First National bank
of Boston, of date June Is. output,

city and labor supply, is at or near

figures, is very satisfactory. Retail
trade, New England excepted, is
holding up we'll. The fly in the ONT
ment," the letter goes on to say, lis
the wave of conservation which has
swept over the country in the past
two months, but which already shows
signs of s%ubsiding. The conviction
that the present recession is temper
ary and in the nature of a readjust-
ment is quite generally held, and
consequently a feeling of optimism
prevails regarding fall business. This
opinion is based upon the fact that
the symptoms which preceded the
1920 deflation are almost entirely
lacking"
Wool Market Fundamentally Sound
The banks letter on the subject
of wool says: "The demand in this
country has continued to be most
pronounced for the finer qualities,
while the medium and lower grades
have been slow sale. Altogether the
market seems fundamentally sound
in spite of the perplexing outlook. In
spite of the dizziness of the ~seaboard
markets, mills continue to consume
heavy quantities of wool, with re-
ported consumption for April, there
fore, including non-reported stock,
approaching $50 million pounds, we'll
above the normal rate. The strength
Of the continental market is indicat-
ed by the fact that of the 100000
bales of Colonial crossbreds offered
Hull on June s, the continent took
so per cent, and prices which had
leen expected to decline remained
generally firm"
Mills Work Overtime
''The latest available statistics on
mill operations covering April" says
he June statistical summary of the
yoolen and Worsted industry issued
~ the Merchants National Bank of
Boston, "shoW that in that month the
ILLS were very DuSy. Inc
DRY machinery and spindles were OPP
rated overtime" says the statement.
1T is obvious that the mills could
educe their operations materially
nd yet run fully up to normal" {
Quoting from government esti-
hates, the consumption of all mills s
4 this country for the four months
nding April 80, was, in 1921, 1861
90, 900 pounds; 1922, 246, 1000,
nd in 1923, 19O,666,O0 pounds, an /
lcrease in 1923 of approximately rs 1

thirds of the total consumption o.
raw wool"
London Auctions Strong
Advices to President Matt Staff
of the National Wool Warehouse and
Storage company were that the Lon
don auctions last week showed re-
markable strength. Continental Eu-
rope was a strong competitor for of
ferings suitable for its purposes, and
there was no recession of prices of
more than 5 per cent on the less de-
sirable woods, and on more desirable
woods the bids were generally UP to
the May levels. This has created a
more cheerful tone in the Boston
market. Boston stocks are almost
entirely of foreign woods. With the
exception of a few houses holding
South American woods undesirable
for American consumption, there has
been no tendency to lower prices to
bring about sales.
An outstanding feature of the mar
ket was the expectation of several
million pounds of South American
low c%rossbred wool to England and
continental Europe, where it was
sold at prices in excess of the levels
obtaining in Boston. This supports
the quoted statement of President
Wood of the American Wooden COM
pany that there is no demand in the
United States for low-grade woods.
The Australian clip, which comes
into direct competition with clips
from Montana and Nevada in the do
market, amounted last season
to 1,828,520 bales. Of this, the ex-
ports to May Fl, 1928, totaled L.
$4,000 leaving on hand on June 1
