J Product That Grades Highest and Brings Prices Is That Having Nat. ural Green Color Time of Cutting Counts. (Prepared by, the United States Department of Agriculture.) What to do with low-grade hay has long been a cxlng problem to the hay trade. Losses running Into the 'thous ands of dollars annually have boen suf fered by producers because of the dif ficulty encountered In dlsposlng-of h'ay that Is Improperly prepared for mar ket, or Is of a mixture that causes It to be regarded as of a low grade. In Department Bulletin 977, "Mar keting Hay at Country Points," recent ly Issued by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, the failure to remeuy this situation Is ascribed to two chief reasons: The producer and the dealers do not yet agree as to whut constitutes quality In hay, and many producers lack vltul market Informa tion regarding the preparation of hay for terminal and consuming markets. Color Counts Most. Quality of hay Is at present In dicated largely by Its color, which Is used to gauge the stnge of maturity at which It Is cut. The hay that Inspecting a Car of Hay. grades highest, and consequently brings the most money, Is usually that having the best natural green color. Hay dealers can often i tell from" the coW whether hay wus cut early, medium, or late, and In their opinion the best hay Is the early cut hay and the poorest that which was cut late. The average hay grower, however, In some sections at least, doe's not agree; with the terminal market theory of quality as Indicated by color. Many producers prefer medium or late cut hay, especially for horses, because It Is easier to 'cure and not as "washy" as curly cut hay. In some markets size and weight of bales Is all Important factor, since there Is sometimes a difference of sev eral dollars u ton in the same grade of hay In small or large bales. The reasons for the demand for certain sizes and weights are numerous and not always based on facts, It is said. However, as In many other kinds of trading, It pays the seller to aim to meet the desires of the buyer. Undesirable Mixtures Cause Loss. The production of undesirable mix tures for the market will cause a loss to the producer as long us the market does not want mixtures. Certain of these are discriminated against regard less of their true nutritive or feed ing value. The producer may know positively that certain mixtures are palatable and contain more total di gestible nutrients than the kinds now In greatest demand, yet lie Is powcr 'ess to make feeders' realize their value. The Introduction and general use of a new kind or mixture of hay Is a very slow undertaking, as In the cuc of clover and alfalfa. About the only wa to avoid trouble with undesirable mixtures, hays the Faillotln, is for the producer to cease -rowing them and to produce only the rllnd In demand In the markets to which his hay Is usually shipped.

When properly dried before "ship ment, velvet bean feed Is a distinct addition to the protein concentrates at the disposal of northern feeders, In the opinion of Dr. .7. II. I.lndsey of Massachusetts station. It has proved slightly better thun wheat bran for making milk. It may constitute as high as -10 per cent of tho grain ration for cows; but 20 per cent for pigs and horses Is considered enough. Doctor I.lndsey recommends for cows a ration of 10 per eerit vchet bean feed, 10 per cent corn or hominy meal or ground oats mid 0 per cent cotton seed meal or some other high-grade protein concentrate. SWEET POTATO CROP DAMAGED BY WEEVIL Outline of Successful Measures of Eradication. Review of Work Dono In Florida and Georgia Where Situation Was Worse Use of Clean Plant ing Stock Is Urged. (Prepared by the linlted States Deportment of Agriculture.) A method of rendering negligible tho heavy damage that would otherwise bo inflicted by the sweet-potato weevil has been found by the United States Department of Agriculture. Ai review of the work done In Florida and Georgia Is contained in depart ment circular 01, bureau of ento mology, United States Department of Agriculture. Measures successful In the eradication of tiic pest In that sec tlon are outlined briefly ns follows: , The old field should he thoroughly cleaned oer ut harvest, the vines be ing fed to stock or burned, and the field hogged over. Tho potatoes should be banked as far away ns possible from the old Held and from the site selected for thn next year's potato Held. All potatpes on the farm should be disposed of early. , No potato or plants from the old? crop should be used on the farm mid no draw-bed should be planted. Old potato bunks should be cleaned as soon us empty. Only draws from sources known to be free from the weevil should he used. The Georgia-Florida location wasse lccled for the test because the situa tion there was serious, the section in land, climatic conditions adverse, and niuny growers unused to ways of co operation. IsTo more unfavorable con ditions, It was thought, were likely to he encountered anywhere In the country. All these, and other minor dllllcultles, have been surmounted, however, and the department, In its circular, announces the followhig con clusions: "The results of the work offer con vincing proof that the same methods, followed with painstaking care, will he successful In eradicating the sveet potato weevil in almost any Infested locality where abundant wild food plants do not offer a fresh and con tinuing source of new Infestation. Careful sorting of the crop, the use of clean planting slock, and nil annual change of location for the main plant ing, even In n continuously infested locullty will reduce .infestation of the tubers to a practically negligible qunntity. "There Is no more reason for ul I owing a sweet-potato crop to be de stroyed annually by weevils thnn there Is for letting tho weeds take It, and conscientious neighborhood effort In the application of the principles that have been outlined may free any dis trict from n heavy annual tax."

SIMPLE AND EFFICIENT POKE Device Recently Invented to Prevent Animal From Forcing Itself Through Fences. , The Scientific American In Illustrat ing and describing an animal poke, the lnumtlon of II.

PRODUCE HIGH-GRADE SEEDS Many Farmers Are Not Careful to Prevent Mixture and Keep Out Harmful Weeds. liven In communities where a sin gle variety of a crop Is raised almost exclusively there Is n place for, tho production of pure seed for local sale, says D. V. Frear, extension specialist In field crops for the Missouri College of Agriculture. Many farmers do not go to the trou. hie to keep their seed up to a high standard but allow It tq become mixed, weed-Infested and diseased and ure glad to pay n good price every few years, for Jdgh grade seed. Those who are favorably situated can produce pure seed to meet this local demand. Seed produced for this purpose must be jf high qualify and considerably better than the uvemge In tho community, because farmers will not pay an Advanced price for M'eil that Is very little better than their' own. i.

The most important period in tho process of applying nutrition to the repair of the body is while you are 'asleep. For the most favorable trans formation of digested food into nerve and cell tissue, so doctors tell us, sleep is absolutely essential. Is it any wonder that those who suffer from lack of proper sleep are weak, pale and lacking in energy or ambition? One of tho causes of insomnia is nerve-irritation from tea and coffee drinking. Tea and coffee both contain caffeine, which has a tendency to cause undue stimulation. The irritating effect of caffeine often SlHSIANjSf results in insomnia, depression, and a weakened nervous system. You can easily overcome these troubles by drinking Postum instead of tea or coffee. Postum is a delicious, satisfying cereal beverage, and it is absolutely free ffom caffeine, or any other harmful substance. Ask your grocer for Postum. Drink this delicious, refreshing beverage for ten days. Then see if you dt not feel better and more clear headed, and if you do not sleep better at nightas so many other people have proved for themselves. Postum comes in two forms: Instant Postum (in tins) made instantly In the cup by tho addition of boiling water.
