Produce Market Notes

Potato markets continued in firm
position early in May, owing to the
moderate current output both of new
and old crops. Total daily ship
ments, early and late, were averag-
ing scarcely 600 carloads which in
cluded from 100 to $50 from Florida
and Texas. Prices were holding fair
ly we'll at nearly all northern ship
ping points. The range of sacked
stock in New York and in producing
sections of Wisconsin and Maine
held near $275 per 100 pounds but
supplies were light at shipping
points and trade rather dull, Sales
as high as $2.87 were reported in
western Michigan producing sections
but haulings were extremely light
and demand slow. Lowest prices
were in northern Maine, around
$3.50, with demand moderate and
prices reported steady.
Shipments of potatoes from west
ern New York were averaging about
Is carloads daily in late April. Most
of the stock was reported going to
points in North Carolina and Vir-
ginia. Prices held about steady for
the most part although a slightly
downward tendency prevailed for a
day or two near the end of the
month, with declines of about 10
cents on 15O-pound sack. Some
growers were still holding for. high
er prices and expecting to receive
from S1.75 to So per bushel before
tho saason ended. Present prices

"THE ROGUE SONG"
WITH TIBBETT MADE
ENTIRELY IN TECHNICOLOR

Because music creates, through
the ear, the consciousness of beauty
that color conveys through the eye,
the debut of the first major star of
opera on the talking screen has been
arranged with the use of both.
1.-THE Rogue Song" Lawrence Tib-
belts introduction to talking pic
lures, which Metro-Goldwyn-M Mayer
will present Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday at the Capital Theatre, is
not only replete with special song
numbers, written for the great bari
tone, but has been filmed entirely
in color.
The undertaking involved many
abstruce scientific problems in the
matter of photographing sound on
film which at the same time kept
natural color values, and the COM
pletion of the work was hailed as
one of the greatest triumphs for the
TechnicolOr process.
Tibbett sings songs ranging from
numbers of operate magnitude with
a symphony orchestra to simple love
songs. Elsa Alsen, dramatic So
prano, a women's chorus and a large
male chorus are other elaborate
musical details of the Russian
drama.
The filming of the songs was done
in a specially prepared set of sound
stages. The orchestra in each case
was housed in a horn" or thin
wood orchestra shell, in which three
mocrophOnes of different frequencies
were placed. Herbert StOthart, con-
ducting, heard Tibbett's voice in
the set outside over earphOnes as he
the accompaniment. Voice
and music were put together or
mixed" in a monitor room insu-
lated, so far as sound is concerned,
from both sets.
"By filming action in color one is
able to blend harmonies in hue just
as one blends them in music, and
then blend them together in a perfect
whole" Lionel Barrymore, director
of the picture, stated recently. 1T
is in this regard that color can be
so valuable in the filming of music"

truckers were paying as high as
S1.65 in making up loads to dispose
of in nearby markets.
Onions Steady.
There were a few sales of New
York yellow onions from storage at
$1.5O to $1.6O per 100 pounds on the
New York market in early May. Best
old stock offered was from Indiana
and brought $1.75 to $1.S5. Sales in
50-pound sacks from the East and
Middle West ruled So cents. There
were a few old-crop onions from
Oregon of fancy quality and selling
at special prices. Texas yellow on
ions have been selling around $l.5O
per crate in northern markets.
Prices in Texas producing sections
have not shown much change since
the middle of the month and No. /
stock commands 81 at.Lared0. About
10 per cent of the onion shipments
during the last week of April we're

Spinach Plenty.
Supplies of spinach continued
very liberal in northern markets in
early May. Sales of Virginia stock
ranged mostly so to rs cents per
bushel in Boston, Pittsburgh, Chica-
go, and Cincinnati. Texas Savoy
spinach followed a similar range Of
prices in midwestern markets.

developed in Ito Middle West. SUP
plies were somewhat reduced and
delayed by cool weather, in produc~
ing sections. Sales of South Caro-
lima stock reached tops of $6 per
dozen in various eastern markets
and extra large sizes topped at $3.50
in New York. Shipments from all
sources averaged about 40 cars daily
around the first of the month.
Apples In Demand.
There is still a limited but fairly
steady market for apples from stOr-
age in western New York. A rather
wide range in the price for No. /
fruit prevailed. Owing to prevalence
OF scald i'm cold storage apples at
this season top prices were COM
manded only by fruit protected from
scald by use of oiled paper in the
pack. Sales of No. Baldwins in
the Rochester district ranged 81 to
$2.25 a bushel in late April, mostly
around $21O to 1920. A few sales
of barreled apples were reported at
Sc. Many shipments are on con-
signment or joint account to such
markets as Pittsburgh and New
York. These two cities received
more than half of the shipments
from the Rochester district the last
week of April. Considerable trouble
was experienced by shippers on ac-
count of complaint of condition of
the fruit on arrival at terminal mar
kets. Some cars which passed in
spection fairly well at shipping
points appear to have developed con

Sales of New York Baldwins in

eastern markets followed a range of
$3.50 to $3.50 per barrel in early
May, and busheled stock sold from
$2 to $2.40. Eastern Mcintosh reach
ed $4 a bushel in New York. Eastern
Yorks and Winesaps sold at $2.25 to
$2.75 per bushel in large eastern
markets. The lower range of prices
was for lots showing some scalded
fruit. Eastern Ben Davis have been
selling at $4.75 to S. barrel and at
$1.75 to 50, bushel pack, in eastern
cities. There was very little change
in the apple price situation in the
eastern territory around the first Of
the month.

Why Is the Senate Said to Represent
Geography and the House People!

Each state, regardless of its popu-
lation, is entitled to two senators in
the federal Senate. Therefore the
Senate represents the United States
geographically. Nevada with its
SC. 900 inhabitants has the same rep
resentation in the Senate as New
York does with it's 100000 inhabi-
ants. The House of Representa-
tives, on the other hand, represents
population. Nevada has only one
representative while New York has
forty-three.-The Pathfinder.

branches. Paul's Scarlet holds its color
well and the flowers are extremely du-
rable as compared with such quickly
maturing kinds as Christine Wright
and Climbing American Beauty. One
fine climbing rose plant can do more
to make a home attractive than almost
any other plant.
Tulip foliage is now ripening and
it will pay to dig the bulbs and lay
them away in a dry, cool, dark place
until September. Meanwhile their
place may be taken by ANIMALS such
as saliva and ztnnias, but before re-
planting the soil should be spaded and
fortified with ground bone or other
good fertilizer. Need of ample fer
tilizer is especially keen under a sys-
tenn of double cropping. NarciSsus
bulbs, on the other hand, should not
be moved every year, not until they
begin to crowd themselves, about once
every three or four years for the more
vigorous varieties such as Emperor.
The June or May beetle is not gen.
orally considered a harmful garden in

beetle does its evil work under the soil,
eating roots of strawberry plants, grass,
ETC., and thus hides the fact that it is
a pest. The only hazard of the full
grown flying form is that it lays the
eggs for future generations. AS a rule,
the May beetle is bothersome only in
freshly turned sod land and in the
older gardens does little damage.

the fruit to stand four to six mcnes
apart. This year frost did more or less
thinning of its own accord and hano
thinning may not be at all necessary.
Plums in particular have tendency
to overbear one year and rest the next
The Japanese plums, such as Burbank,

some records taken at the Canadian ex-
pertinent station showed that plum
trees, the fruit of which was thinned,
were much more resistant to Winter
cold than unthinned trees. And again
at the Michigan station measurements
of the leaves and shoots of th1nned ana
unthinned plum trees showed much
stronger growth on thinned trees.
There Is no doubt that thinning OF
heavy fruit crops pays and nowhere
could the work be more profitable than
in the home garden where the direct
outlay for thinning would be little.

CIRDLING OF FRUIT
TREES DESCRIBED

Apple and pear trees that are Of age
and refuse to bloom may be forced into
bearing by removing a ring OF bark
from the trunk at this season OF the
year. The bark slips easily from the
wood at this time, IL being simply nee
essary to make two parallel cuts with
aharp knife and lift out the enclosed
ring of bark. The ring should be about
one inch In width. Cutting out this
bark does not cut of the water supply,
but does impede the downward passage
of sugars and other materials made in
the leaves. The theory is that follow
ing girdling these sugars accumulate In
the top and the excess OF nutr1ments
causes part of the leaf buds TO develop
into flower buds. Later In the Summer
the wound heals over and normal food
movement occurs.
That the treatment works Is attest
ed by its commercial use by fruit grow
ers In the case of filler trees which are
slow in fruiting. BY filler trees we
mean those set in between the perna-
nent trees with the idea Of returning
an early profit and then TO be cut out
Many home orchards have been set too
closely and also have these filler trees,
which, rather than being cut down i'm
n.ediately, might be girdled in an at
tempt to grow at least one good crop.
Cirdling permanent trees may not be
advisable because of possible injury,
although it has been done without
damage.

GARDEN ITEMS

Aouilegia or columbine makes very
satisfactory member of the perennial
border. The long spurred types OF this
highly variable flower are particularly
attractive but appear less permanent
and vigorous than the short spurred
forms. In fact If one starts with
stock of long spur plants and allows
them TO self seed, he will find that the
long spur kinds will gradually disap-
pear, giving way to the more primitive
types. The columbine blossoms in the
period between the tulip and the iris
and helps maintain a succession OF
bloom.
This Is a favorable time to lift hardy
primula plants and divide them, re-
setting them along the walks where
they will make a fine show of color
early next Spring. Seed saved from
the old plants will give jise to new and
attractive colors.
Pauls Scarlet Climber is a lovely
deep red climbing rose and has the
added value of not being a rampant
grower. It is more of pillar type
and does not present the control prob
lem that do some of the true climbers
such as DR.. Van Fleet and Dorothy
Perkins with their long thorny

STRAWBERRY BEDS

The question of whether to keep the
strawberry bed more than one fruiting
season often bothers the home gardener
who naturally dislikes to abandon an
enterprise which has represented so
much painstaking effort. Yet under
most conditions 1t will pay to make
new strawberry planting each year. In
the Northwestern States strawberry
beds are kept for two or three years,
but the growers are not so badly beset
by weeds and diseases as are Eastern
berry raisers. In the West strawber-
ries are usually grown in hills. which
allow cross culture and no runners are
allowed TO grow.
The home garden strawberry bed VIII
give a fair account Of itself the second
year If after fruiting the rows are mar
rowed to 9 to IL inches by spading un-
der the outlying plants. The worked
area should be well fortified with bone
meal or complete fertilizer and Kept
titled regularly until new runners are
forming. Such a system Of renovation
IA a compromise between new bed
and retaining the old and Will give
much better results than simply hold
ing the old bed as it is. The most sat
isfactory and perhaps easiest way OF
All is TO start an entirely new pea
each April.
