Poultry Industry of u. S. Worth
Billion-N. E. Chapman, poultry
specialists with the agricultural ex-
tension service of the University OF
Minnesota, attended the annual con-
vention of the International Baby
Chick association in Chicago and
| took part in the preliminary Council
which is to correspond to the Nation
al Dairy Council and other similar
bodies. Prof. Harry R, Lewis of
Davisville, R. L., was chosen temper
airy president. Another meeting will
be held soon to perfect the permanent
organization. Headquarters will be
maintained in Chicago.
''The object of the council" says
Mr.. Chapman, sis to have an organ
ization that can speak with authority
for the billion dollar poultry industry
that has been developed in this coun-
try. According to the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture the value of all
poultry products in the United States
in 1923 totaled $1,047,000,000,
which is greater than the value of all
cattle raised in the same period in
the United Stats"
Mr.. Chapman is now attending the
annual meeting of the international
Association of Poultry Instructors
and Investigators at Raleigh, N. c..
On the 22nd he will address the con-
vention on the Minnesota method of
marketing poultry products.

other countries, notably Denmark,
Holland and Canada. A careful
study will be made by the Commits
sion of the butter industry in Mime
sofa. The present duty on butter is
8 cents a pound. Under the recent
tariff law the president has the power
to increase this amount so per cent,
which would raise the tariff to IL
cents pound. The agitation for an
increase in the butter tariff was
prompted largely by the drop in the
price Of butter in this country in
March, occasioned by large importa-
tons from New Zealand and Den
mark.

Potato Growers Are Making Real
Gains-That the potato growers of
Minnesota are making distinct pro
tanned was clearly seen in the potato
fields inspected on the states third
annual uotato tour, which closed at
Meadowlands, near Duluth, Saturday,
August 8.
The average producer is going in
for the raising of standard varieties
and is avoiding mixtures, says s.. B !.
Cleland, district leader of county
agents, who was a member of the
tourist party throughout. The aver
age producer is also getting better
understanding of potato diseases and
of the losses imposed by insects, and
is learning how to control both enc
mics of his crop.
Again, a distinct gain is being
made in the growing of potatoes on
peat lands through knowledge OF
right drainage and the use of ample
supplies of commercial fertilizers. In
every county visited on the tour
fine potato fields on peat soils were
found.
Interest is growing, furthermore,
in certified seed potato production,
reports A. G. Tolaas, in charge OF
certiication work for the state. Last
year about 1000 acres of potatoes
were entered for seed certification
This year the acreage is $500.

result of the agitation of his organi.
zation the Tariff Commission will be-
gin at once an investigation of the
problem of an adequate tariff on but
ter. This investigation will take pre-

or contemplated. An appropriation
of $4,000 has been set aside by the
Commission for the purposes ofthis
duty, which will concern itself with a
comparison of the cost of production
of butter in the United States anG

u. S. Provides New Farming Ex-
plosive-Pyrotol is the name given
the new government explosive which
will be used for land clearing pur-
poses in Minnesota in the place OF so
datol, the supply of which became ex7
hausted several months ago.
All orders for the new explosive
should be placed with the Agricultur-
al Engineering Division at Universe
ty Farm and all remittances, which
must always accompany orders
should be made payable to the Uni
versity Department Of Agriculture,
University Farm st. Paul. The price
of pyrotol is seven cents per pound
f. o. b. Barksdale, Wis, when or
dered in quantities of from lOO to
1000 pounds the charge will be at the
rate of $500 per 100 pounds f. o. b.
st. Paul, Bemidji, or Virginia.
For stump and rock blasting, py-
rotol can be used exactly the same as
dynamite is used. While the price
per pound is somewhat higher than
sodatol, the price per stick is less,
says A. ]. Schwantes, land clearing
specialist of the university, because
there are about 800 sticks to the
100 pounds, making the cost per stick
about three cents laid down at the
average point in the state. Since a
stick of pyrotol is equal to stick OF
dynamite, this price would be equiv
aient to dynamite at six cents a
pound.
Mr.. Schwantes also gives notice
that am allotment of 100000 No. 6
common blasting caps will be dlstrlb.
uted free of charge at the rate of LOO
cap for each 200 pounds of explosive
f. O. b. st. Paul. No caps can be
furnished with orders for less than
200 pounds. Mr. Schwantes warns
that pyrotol orders should be placed
early if delivery is to be made In
time for use this year.
