(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Wringing In one of the rooms occu pied b’. the main otliee of tin* bn reitu of markets, I Tilted States depart ment in’ agriculture. In Washington, Is n limp showing un Important phase of the government's work In interesting grain growers, dealers and millers In grain grading. The map Is dotted with many colored pins, indicating towns ami villages, scattered north, south, east mid west, where this truth j has been emphasized In connection j with grain grading demonstrations, given by representatives of the bureau. The map Is an epitome of the grain experts' work In spreading the gospel of grain grading. Grading Made Understandable. II is not easy lo explain grain grad ing If one attempts It without samples I or apparatus, but with the equipment I Included in traveling exhibits sent out by the department It Is a ipueh simpler matter. With the help of Information given by the demonstrators a farmer ! familiar with grain can soon learn to i grade his own crop satisfactorily. Prior to the establishment of fed ! eral grades, growers and interior buy j ers knew little* of the various methods ! ami Interpretations of different local ! grades at the grain terminals. Under ! federal standards the government | shows how flic grading is done aeeord- I ing to definite* rules of one national | standard, so that the farmer and In * terlor denier have access to the same : know ledge of grain grading as was for j merly had by the terminal dealer. The i exhibits are designed to show the cor ! rect methods of applying the federal grades for oats, wheat and shelled corn. The apparatus displayed in cludes u moisture tester, scales for weighing samples and separations, a test welght-pei -bushel device, a **so - separating device, sieves and a wild-OSt "kicker.” To visitors Interested tu learning how samples of grain from a car or j bin are secured which ure truly repre sentative. tt Is explained that a | sampler makes probes In five or more j different parts of a ear with n tubollke Instrument containing ten compart ments. With this he secures grain from various depths of the load. The I contents of each orobe Is emptied upon a sampling cloth and examined for odor, tempernture mid condition. A portion of the sample is put In att air tight can and the remainder in a doth bag. These two lots are then brought to the inspection otliee for examina tion. testing and grading. But, Ihi* visitor objects, such sam ples are too large for testing and for a | detailed examination of the kernels. I That Is true. That is Just the reason ! for the "ot>-50" machine, the demon- I strator explains. The sample from the j bag is poured into the hopuer at the j top of this two-spouted cylindrical rau i chine and a cone shit|H*d baffle, located | Just below the outlet of the hopper, ' causes the grain to spread evenly over 1 Its surface. At Its base are n series of I duets, each alternate duct flowing Into | v i|it* (if the spouts below, which no- 1 j eitrately divides the sample in half so that one portion of it will grade ex actly the same ns the other. Five or six divisions of the sample are made I in this way to reduce the portion to ! he examined from about -d* pounds to from one to nlmiounces, depending uu I the tost to be made. This enables the I inspector to analyze the sample rap idly. Part of the loose sample is put through the tes* woight-per bushcl tua bltte. The value of this device lies lu I Hie fact that w ith at! samples weighed the kettle is tilled under uniform con ditions The sample falls just two I Inches from a hopper to the quart ket tle. passing through an opening l 1 * i Inches in diameter.

For Benefit of Visitor. A portion of the sample retained iu the air-tight can is placed in tlie mois ture tester for the benefit of the vis itor. He sees how the inspector deter mines the percentage of moisture In * the grain und learns runt definite per centages are allowed for each gri de. All the other tests described above are made on the large sample in the cloth hug. The oat kicker Is a mechanical device which separates the oats, weed stems, chafi', straw and other foreign matter known ns dockage from wheat samples. This Is the first test for wheat samples. In corn and oats sam pies the foreign material is separated by screening with hand sieves. Thousands of farmers and others In terested In grain have visited these exhibits, which are helping producers, j dealers, millers and others understand the principles of grain grading. After talking with the demonstrators they realize thut the application of the fed eral grades materially narrows mar keting costs, and so is a direct benefit to both grower and consumer. HELP IN MARKETING PUREBRED ANIMALS Plan Inaugurated to Give Buyers Necessary Information. Success Dependent on Co-operation of Breeders in County or Community With Each Other and With the County Agent. The live stock farmer having only I u few purebred animals for sale at | rather infrequent Intervals, often has ! difficulty in disposing of his surplus profitably, often because purchasers do not know what he has to sell. The bureau of markets, United States department of agriculture, in | co-operation ufth the state, county and local agencies, has Inaugurated a plan which assists buyers In obtain ing Information regarding the location, character and number of purebred ani mals. The success of this plan is de pendent on the co-operation of the breeders In n county or community with each other and with the county agent. The latter’s office should be In the headquarters for the associa tion. In this office should he filed com plete Information regarding the pun*- lired animals belonging to the mem bers. Through the county agent, ac cording to the plan, the state agent in marketing and the bureau of markets at Washington are kept In touch with the supply These agencies likewise keep in touch with buyers and so are ; able lo serve an Increasing number jof buyers and sellers effectively. EASTERN SUPPLY OF TIMBER Quantity In Far West Does Not Mean That thw Country Is Not Al ready Suffering. The fact that there are still large I quantities of standing timber In the ; fur West does not mean that ourcoun ■ trx is not already suffering from the consequences of forest destruction. ! Europe will look fir-d to our eastern j states for lumber, bc< ause of the shorter distance. And the eastern supplies of old timber are rapidly ap i preaching exhaustion. f "GENERAL [FARM .VOTESj Is venr machinery ready for nse? i! * • • ♦ i i Do scute of the repair work now. • • * Our best hug swatters are the birds • * • * * Better gel that planter ready foi ' duty. • * • : Nearly all of those who have tried r soy beans iu connection with corn are nUiitkiastic over rcsulti LIFT OFF CORNS!

Life in jail at Port uu Prince, Haiti, is apparently so pleasant that it is : harder to keep the natives out than in. A recent roll call showed live more prisoners than had been committed. Officers of the marine corps who inves ■ tigated the matter found that the Jive “extras” attracted by three good meals a day and a comfortable ceil to sleep in, had sneaked in with the returning road gang. Now prisoners who work outside the walls are carefully counted before they ure readmitted. —Youth’s Companion. FOUND CARDUI GREAT BENEFIT South Carolina Lady Suffered Un til She Couldn’t Stay Up or Go Anywhere.—Tells Flow Cardui Helped Her Get Well. Bateshurg, S. C. —In telling how she found relief from troubles that had caused her much suffering, Mrs. E. E. Oswalt, of this place, says: “Each month I would begin to suffer with my I back and head. My limbs would ache and I would chill. I wouldn’t bo able to stay up, no matter what I wanted to do, or where I wanted to go. My people tried giving me different medi cines and tens and tonics, yet I didn’t *get any better. “Some one told me of Cardui. and I began to take It. I noticed it helped me. I kept it up. After a few months 1 didn’t have any trouble. For about six months I used It, before . . . “I found I was all right, and from that day to this have never had any trouble at this time. I have taken it since, a bottle or two in the winter, especially when I have been exposed, and would take a cold, for I consider It tlie best thing a woman can take to tone up the system, keep off nervous ness, and Increase the appetite. I certainly know it has been of groat benefit to me.” If you are weak, nervous, or suffer from womanly troubles such as Mrs. Oswalt mentions, take Cardui. the Woman’s Tonic.

RECEIVES HEARTY APPROVAL Music Lovers Throughout South I Await Coming Os Great Music Festival Atlanta, Ga., March 15. —Enthusias- tic approval from all sources, both i from music lovers in Atlanta and many cities through the Southeast, has been received by officials of the Atlanta Mu sic Festival Association since the re cent announcement of the operas chos en for the 1920 season of Metropolitan Grand Opera in Atlanta, April 26 to May 1, inclusive. The program with principal stars in each cast, is as follows: List of Operas With Principal Artists In Cast Monday—“ Samson et Delila,” Caru so, Matzenauer, de Luca, Maruones Ananian. Conductor, Wolff. Tuesday Matinee —“Zaza,” Farrar, Martinelli, Amato Picco, Howard, Ege ner, Tiffany. Conductor, Moranzoni. Wednesday—“ Lucia di Lammer mcor,'’ Barrientos or Garrison, Har rold, de Luca, Mardones. Conductor, Papi. Thursday "Matinee—“La Juive,” Ca ruso, Panselle, Scotney, Chal mers, Diaz. Conductor, Wolff. Friday—“ Madame Butterfly,” Far rar, Harrold, Scotti, Gordon. Conduc tor, Moranzoni. Saturday Matinee—“ll Trovatore,” Easton, Matzenauer, Martinelli, Ama to, Uothier. Conductor, Papi. Saturday Evening—“L’Elisir d’Am ore,’’ Caruso, Barrientos or Garrison Scotti, Tiffany, Malatesta. Conductor, Papi. Rosina Galli and ballet Monday evening, with Samson et Delila; Thurs day matinee with La Juive and Satur day matinee with II Trovatore. As usual there will be seven per formances, four evening and three mat inees. There are two new operas that have never been heard here before, “Zaza,” with Geraldine Farrar, on Tuesday afternoon, and “La Juive,” in which Caruso sings, on Thursday af ternoon. The fact that Caruso sings in three operas, Monday night, Thurs day matinee, and Saturday, will give his out of town admirers ample op portunity to hear him in at least one performance, if they are unable to be here for the entire week. The return of Geraldine Farrar with the Metropolitan after an absence of several years, is heralded with espe cial interest and enthusiasm. Always a favorite with Southern opera goers she will undoubtedly receive a doubly enthuolu-stic welcome by reason of her long absence. Her appearance ! n “Zaza,” which has created nothing short of a sensation in New York this season, and her master role of “Butter fly” will be received by record audi ences, it is predicted. The new tenor, Orville Harrold. who sings Wednesday and Friday nights, has been the talk of New York, and the South is looking forward to his first appearance here with pleasant antici pation. The prices for opera, while slightly increased over those of last year, are still below those charged in New York for the same performances. They are as follows: Boxes for the season, $209 to $313.50; boxes single performances $37.40 to $56.10; arena, season, $26.40 to $33; arena, single, $5.50 to $6.60; dress cir cle, season, sl9 25 to $33.00; dress cir cle, single, $3.85 to $5.50; balcony, sea son $23.10 to $26 40; balcony, single, $2.20 to $4.40. A1 of the above prices include the required 10 per cent gov ernment war tax.
