STORAGE CELLAR
MOST ESSENTIAL
Growers of Fruits and Vege
tables Lose Money Every Year
by Selling Crops Early.
SELLS OH FLOODED MARKET
Produce Can Be Kept In Concrete
Room for Long Period Without
Loss Due to Decay or Sprout
ing Materials Needed.
(Prepared by th Unltoil Stntca Department
of Agriculture )
Fruit nnd vegetable growers nro de
prived of millions of dollars each year
because they are forced to sell their
products as soon as harvested. Prod
ucts sold on a Hooded market mean
low prices and sometimes a loss, but
this Is what tho producer must expect
when he sells during an over-production
period. Unless he lins storage
facilities In which to hold Ills vege
tables or fruit until the prices rise,
he must sell or lose out entirely.
Tho rise In prices during the storage
period Is very strongly marked. For
Instance, n table showing the eight
year average price for potatoes In the
United States Indicates that In March,
April and May they were !!8 cents n
bushel more than In November and
December.
Benefits of Cellar.
A good storage cellar also mnkes It
possible to keep vegetables and fruit
longer for home consumption. Vege
tables thnt must be stored In the or
dinary cellar soon decay and In the
spring when the temperature rises
vegetables that have not decayed
will itprout, which decreases their food
value and makes them unlit for mar
ket. Traits and vegetables can be
stored In concrete storage cellars for
n long period without any loss or de
preciation due to decay or sprouting.
It is host to build the storage cellar
on a north slope and have the en
trance facing north. Double doors en
closing a small vestibule are desirable,
as they permit filling nnd emptying
the cellar with the admission of a
minimum of warm air.
Storage cellar walls made of dense
concrete, will keep out the excess
moisture of the earth while water
held In sumps at the base of the
Intake ventilators will give air enter
ing tho storage cellar the proper
amount of moisture.
Reinforce the Roof.
The roof must bo reinforced length

storage cellar should bo of a 1:2:4
concrete mixture. This means ono

should nlso be clean, hard and vary

CHAPPED TEATS DURING FALL
Cold Weather Is Blamed for Annoy
ance Also Caused by Milking
With Wet Hands.
Sore teats often cause annoyance
during tho fall season. This troublo
mny ho cnused by cold wenther, by
milking with wet hnnds or other lo
cnl lrrltntlon. When n cow Is so uf
fected she does not stnnd quietly for
milking on nccount of tho pain.
Tho troublo Is usunlly remedied
without much trouble. -The nppllcn
tlon of vaseline for n few times on
the first appearance of tho trouble will
usually chock and cure It. If severe,
the teats should bo thoroughly washed
and softened with wnrm wnter, after
which glycerin or tannin which may
bo had at any drug storo mny bo np
plied with ndvantnge. Ono nppllcn
tlon followed by tho uso of vaseline
nt each milking for a few dnys will
usunlly entirely cure the trouble.

MUCH PROGRESS MADE
FOR PUREBRED SIRES
Movement Having Noticcablo
Effect in Many Sections.
Farmers Are Discarding Scrub and
Grade Animals and Using Regis
tered Bulls Instead Letter
From Virginia Agent.
(I'repnred by tho United State Department
ot Aurlculturo.)
There. Is every reason to believe
that the replacement of scrub and
grade sires by purebrods Is on tho
Increase. Deports received by tho
United States Department of Agricul
ture from county agents In various
parts of the country show that tho
"Hotter Sires Hotter Stock" move
ment Is having a noticeable effect. A
recent statement by M. G. Lewis,
county agent of Dockbrldge county,
Virginia, Is typical of a large number
"The purebred bull movement," says
Mr. Lewis, "is progressing rapldlyv
Since January 1, 10 farmers have dis
posed of grade or scrub bulls and are

Records Prove uig Vniuc of Regis,

other hand, there arc no less than 50
men in the county who still persist In
holding out against the progress and
development of the live stock interests
of the county by keeping Inferior
grade or scrub bulls. I have a list of
CO owners of such bulls. Some of
these men have grades that nro fairly
good Individuals, while others have
scrubs that nre tho worst kind of n
disgrace to the community nnd to the
county.
"Tho cost of a good registered hull
Is so small now that It Is a mystery
why any farmer will keep anything
else. Many records have been kept
during the last few years to prove out
tho nctue' value of a pure-bred bull
in dollars and cents."
Some of these actual figures were
obtained recently by tho Department
of Agriculture through an inquiry sent
out to more than fi00 fnrmers through
out the United States. These men
gavo it as their opinion that in all
kinds of farm stock purebreds huv
nn earning power more thnn 40 per
cent better than common stock. It la
noteworthy that In the case of dairy
cattle, whose productive power can be
easily measured, purebreds were con
sidered to be 47.8 per cent better than
common cows. The lowest percentage
given for any kind of stock was 30.S
per cent.

For Heavy Yields
Selecting, curing, and testing
seed corn will do more toward
producing a better nnd bigger
corn crop thnn anything else. IJy
careful selection tho farmer Im
proves his corn and Is able to
produco larger, heavier and bet
ter ears. Dy properly curing
seed corn ho Insures himself
against seed of low vitality; and
by n germination test lie avoids
sterile ears and plants only seed
that will give the most prolltablo
returns. It. A. Moore, Wiscon

FOUR BIG BUILDING FACTORS
Important That Ventilating System
Carries Away Excess Moisture
Sunlight Is Good,
There nre four factors to ho con
sidered In tho erection of now farm
buildings or tho repair of old ones.
3. A good ventilating system Is most
essential. The fre-di air Intake, to
gether with n foul ulr outlet, does
nwny with all excess moisture and
keeps tho Interior of the building In
the best condition. Have a trap door
or window near the floor on tho wind
ward side in order to innlntnln nlr cur
rent on tho floor.
2. Sunlight Is one of tho grentest
natural disinfectants. All buildings,
now or old, should have plenty of win
dow space, and should bo so arranged
as to admit tlru sunlight.
3. Cleanliness Is another point upon
which to place muclj stress. Wlndowa
nnd walls should he so constructed as
to permit frequent and easy cleaning.
4. Convenience Is another important
factor. Feed bins, silos, harness rooms,
separator rooms and nil other rooms
and compnrtments should be planned
to savo steps, thus accomplishing n
maximum amount of work with a min
imum amount of labor.
