PROPER HOUSING PREVENTS
IMPLEMENT DEPRECIATION

Agricultural College News-Notes,:-
There are two kinds of implement
depreciation. Namely, depreciation
due TO wear when in use and depre-
citation due to rot and rust when not
in use.
Manufacturers of high grade i'm
plements are continually striving to
improve their products by putting
better material and better workman
ship into the machinery, which les
sens wear. With these advantages,
supplemented with intelligent use
and care of the operator, 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 in fence corners or
in fields exposed to the elements 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 put
ting the machinery in readiness for
the following season, and besides, they
will never work as well as they did
when new.
The best method of preventing this
sort of depreciation is by the proper
housing of machinery. The imple-
ment shed should not be made expen-
sive, but should be made with tight
roof either enclosed on all sides or
open on one side. As soon as the
implements are ready to store for the
season, they should be gone over,
bolts frightened and memorandum
made of the parts broken and any
other necessary repairs. Shovels and
shears should be removed and sharp
ened. This work can be done during
the winter months when worl, on tho
farm is not pressing. The imple-
ments will then be ready when need
ed the following season.

CLEANLINESS IN HANDLING
MEANS MORE MILK USED

Agricultural College News-Notes:-
The dairyman is interested in the
greater consumption of milk and ne
Is also interested in the production of
high grade milk, as it is a contribu-
ton to increased sales of his product.
In the production of high grade milk
IT is necessary for US to take every
precaution because milk very readily
absorbs odors from the barn and else
where and is quite easily contaminst-
ed by bacteria. II milk was consumed
within few hours after production,
we would not have a very difficult
problem. The fact is, however, that
our milk is often transported long
distances and is not consumed until
"a hours to As hours after production.
This necessitates great care in hand
ling the product.
The usual methods employed of
checking on the sanitary condition of
milk supply are the sediment test
and the bacteria count. Marked sed-
iment in the milk indicates that it
was produced and cared for under
unclean conditions. A low bacteria
count is desired because it denotes
sanitary conditions all along the way
from the COW to the consumers
table.
1t is wrong to believe that high
quality of milk cannot be produced un-
less expensive barns and equipment
are employed. High quality milk can
be produced under average farm con-
ditions, but it requires precautions
each and every day.
The final bacteria count is the
sum of the bacteria coming from the
udder of the COW, plus the number
gaining admission after the milk is
drawn from the udder and the natur-
al increase that has taken place be-
fore the count is made.
The means for the dairyman then
to employ is to cut down to the very
minimum the number of bacteria
gaining admission to the milk after
it is drawn. This is simplified if the
COWS are kept clean and in a sanitary
barn. Also. this count is reduced by
handling the milk only in sterilized
containers and exposing it to the a1r
the shortest possible time. To cut
down the number of bacteria, we
should keep the milk under conditions
of low temperature. This has a
controlling effect on the multiplication

MARKETING Is
REVIEWED BY DEPARTMENT

The magnitude Of the cooperative
marketing movement is brought out
in 4 statement issued recently by the
Bureau of Agricultural Economies of
the Y. $. Dept. Of Agriculture entitl-
ed "A Review Of the Cooperative
Movement in the L. s During the
Present Decade" Lists are given of
cooperative associations of various
lands. together with statistics on
membership and business transac-
tons. These figures indicate the trc-
mendous development of the move
ment.
Cooperation in this country" says
the statement, "is attended BY many
more difficulties than in small home
geneous nations. for our people in
some localities differ in radical origin;
distances in this country are very
great and there is great variety in
climate. topography and soil condi-
tlons- In spite of these natural hand
leaps, American farmers for more
than decade, have turned to cooper
ton as a solution of their marketing
problems. The enormous amount OF
energy now being expended in CO.
operative efforts presages a further
expansion of the amount of busi-
ness done by cooperative organiza-
tons; the character of the men in
leadership in the various types and
phases of Agricultural Cooperation,
as outlined in these pages. is the best
guarantee of the permanent success
of the cooperative marketing move
ment of today"

TO VOTE ON CITY N

Plainfeld is going to vote on whether or not to adopt the city
manager system of government. This will be the second city to
vote on the city manager plan since the passage of the Pascoe bill
by the last legislature. The borough of Deal in Monmouth county
was the first to act, but Deal is so small, as far rs resident voters
are concerned, that it hardly counts. There the city manager plan
was decisively defeated.
Plainfeld, on the other hand, is a city of about 10000 people.
1t is a city, too, whose inhabitants may be said to be above the
general average of intelligence. If there is any place in New Jer-
sy where the city manager idea can be given a fair trial it is in
Planfed. But WHILST would be an experiment for this state,
the fact that there are between 250 and 300 cities throughout the
country being successfully run by a city manager proves that it is
not q fad.
Much will depend on the way the city manager plan in New
Jersey is started whether it will be a success or not. If it should
be adopted in Plainfeld and resulted in a failure, or did not prove
to be any advantage over the old system, it could be taken for
granted that it could hardly succeed anywhere in this state. 1t is
an advanced idea, to be sure, as far as this section of the country
is concerned, although it has been in successful operation through
the Middle West for some time. We here in the East are motto.
riously backward about adopting new things, especially when it

THE DUMBBELL

About the dumbest thing in creation is the jellyAsh. But
in laboratories the scientists take this low form of life and
perform an experiment that would interest you.
Anyone studying the jellyfsh would decide that it has no
brains at all. When it needs food, it automatically opens like
a clam and stays open until something eatable drifts along into
its mouth" Then the contact Of the bit of food causes a
nerve reaction that makes the jelyfsh close again-all by in
voluntary or automatic action, the same as when you touch a
hot stove and Immediately withdraw without pausng to think
it over.
The scientists play a mean trick on the jenyAsh. They
put a chunk Of yeast into its awaiting flaws" Pronto, the
jelly6sh closes and starts digesting the yeast.
But the yeast begins expanding. It continues swelling
until the jely6sh is on the verge OF exploding.
Then suddenly the jelyfsh opens up systematically and
casts out the yeast. The scientists are convinced that this ac-
ton is semi-voluntary-tha the jelyfsh opens instead OF the
yeast forcing it open.
ming o. thought. For, until fooled with a cargo of yeast, the
jellyhsh apparently never before in history opened to disgorge.
According to the evolutionists, there was a time far back
in the msts Of history when our ancestors were as dumb as
the jellyfsh, when all action was involuntary, instructive.
Some accident, such as the jellyfsh getting a meal of
yeast, probably started those ancient ancestors of ours along
the line Of voluntary action.
Will power began developing. So did memory. Then
came a sense of curiosity, the desire to xperiment-which IS
manifested by small children when they attempt to eat every
thing that comes their way and looks strange. You'v had
the experience of making baby spit out a button, pin, pebble or
strange bug.
Will power, memory, curiosity, Judgment and reasoning
power are the foundations Of human thought-of progress.
Can plant life thinkq You may believe so, if you have
ever had a garden. Else what teaches the climbing plant,
which has been creeping along the ground to turn and hasten
itself to the supporting twig you place for it in the soil9
Surely in this, are the faint rudiments or thought process.
All this may be skating on thin scientific ice, but It's IN
teresting to ponder. And so-called exact scientific knowledgels
never definitely established, for principles accepted as truths
frequently are exploded in later generations. In this drec-
ton, Einstein has upset a lot of established science:
We refer the question to the interesting organization, the
Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Plant Life, which be-
lieves it is as cruel and painful to root out a hill of potatoes
as to butcher a steer.
