UNIFORM GRADES ARE PROFITABLE Lead to Mutual Understanding and Confidence Between Farmers and Buyers. EXPERT ADVICE ON SUBJECT War-Time Potato Regulations Proved Merits of Standard Grades—Bureau of Markets to Recommend Classifications. (Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) If an expert conclusively demon strated a method to you whereby you could increase the profits from your business 10, 20 or 50 per cent, would you throw him out of the house? Or would you embrace him as did a group of Michigan potato growers when the bureau of markets. United States de partment of agriculture, offered sug gestions expert advice regarding the formation of a potato growers’ ex change and the business methods that the exchange should use? Today the potato growers con cerned are very glad they adopted llio latter course, for in less than a Graded Produce Sells for High Prices or. Any Market. year’s time it placed in their pockets more than a quarter of a million dol lars over what they would have had otherwise. There is no dark secret about how this was accomplished. In fact, the achievement can be duplicated by oth ers. Although, to he sure, the success of the Michigan potato growers was due largely to the co-operative feature of tlie enterprise, an individual may secure a proportionate result by ap plying the same business principles in marketing his farm products. The fundamental principle that has animated the bureau of markets in its work is thnf distribution of farm prod i ‘ •••V ’• WM . •*' ■ ' J* *■■■■ ” l i :i- • „ ■ * j„ ' J Potatoes Before and After Grading. ucts requires mutual understanding and confidence between producer and buyer.* If a farmer states that he has shipped to market a carload of high grade produce which upon arrival is found to be of inferior quality, natu rally the purchaser questions the farmer's integrity and does not depend upon his word in the future. On the other hand, should a buyer allege that produce was received in bad condition, when, as a matter of fact, it was in WAYS OF PROTECTING ANIMALS FROM FLIES Covering With Burlap Is One Effective Plan. | Lesiher Nets or Strips Attached to Horse’s Bridle Aids in Keeping Pest Away From Work Stock —Darkened Stable Good. The importance of taking steps to prevent tlie breeding of stable flies rather than depending on protection of the stock when the flies are full grown cannot be emphasized too i much. However, where this is not j done the farmer is forced to resort to various means of warding off the flips. Work animals may be protected largely from the pest by means of coverings. One type of covering which 4ms been found to be very effec tive and inexpensive consists of a blanket made of double thickness of burlap, so arranged as to cover com pletely the back, sides, and neck of the animal. The legs also are covered sometimes by means of old trousers slipped over the feet and tied over the back. Leather nets or strips of leather attached to the bridle also aid in keeping the flies from the head. Completely darkened stables offer THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR, MT. VERNON, GEORGIA. first-class shape, the farmer loses con fidence in the buyer nnd regards him as dishonest. To Eliminate Distrust These are corylitions that should not exist, nnd the bureau of markets lias set about in a very practical way to help eliminate them. It maintains that in the marketing of produce there should be a common and uniform ba sis of understanding. The various kinds of marketing produce should be known by grades, and the specifi cations for any particular grade should he the same everywhere. For example, potatoes of No. 2 grade should be No. 2 potatoes throughout the entire country and not No. 1 grade In cer tain sections. And if the farmer agrees to ship No. 2 potatoes they should con form to the specifications for that grade. Tty eliminating the confusion resulting from a particular grade of produce having one meaning to the farmer and another to the buyer, a foundation of mutual understanding is established. That the use of standard grades is readily appreciated by producers and buyers alike, was evidenced during the war, when the food administration re quired licensed dealers to use potato grades recommended by the bureau of markets. The results were so satis factory that when the regulation was canceled the use of potato grades, to a large extent, was continued volun tarily. The bureau of markets lias recom mended grades for potatoes. Ucrnmda and northern grown onions, strawber- ries and rice. It has established grades for wheat, corn, oats and cot ton. In the near future it expects to recommend grades for hay and other produce. It has recently prepared ten tative wool grades with a view ulti mately to recommending standard grades of that commodity. A complete classification of cattle, calves, hogs, sheep and goats has been adopted by Ihe bureau for use in reporting live stock market prices. A similar clas sification is in use for reporting whole sale meat quotations. Consideration is also being given the question of hav ing representatives demonstrate United States grain grades to European coun tries for the purpose of familiarikinf. dealers there with the standards upon which international transactions with the United States should tie based. Hay Producers Feel Need. In tlie matter of hay farmers admit that the marketing of the commodity is a hazardous undertaking because of the possibility of loss due to iaisun derstanding, lack of inspection, varia tions in grades in different markets differences in the manner in which rules for grading are interpreted, and because of sharp practices. In fact, many farmers have stated that nine tenths of the losses in the hay business are due to lack of standard grades and a uniform, impartial inspection service. Not only does the use of standard grades result in better understanding and confidence between producers and buyers, but in greater satisfaction be cause of increased monetary returns. Farmers everywhere are urged to eon duct llieir business of marketing upon tlie sound business principle advocated by the bureau of markets. The bureau will be glad to advise anyone desiring the various grades it recommends. much protection from the flies, al though tlie resulting lack of ventila tion is objectionable. Tlie thorough screening of all windows and floors is much more desirable. When screened barns are used, care should he taken to brush the flies from the animals, when they are about to enter, by means of nets over the doorway or with sacks. Little can be done to protect range stock from the flies. On hog farms a freshly plowed trench offers considerable protection to 1 lie swine. The sides of these trenches may be smeared with petro leum, which rubs off on the animals and acts as a repellent. The trench may be used also for protecting sheep, but the petroleum in their case is un necessary.

False Claims. VI7E hope there is no Mother who thinks she can treat her sick baby without calling in a Physician, or with remedies that she uses for herself. Most Mothers know that Baby requires remedies especially prepared for babies, yet there are some who think that what is good enough for them is good enough for Baby, and it is to these Mothers we appeal to give nothing to their babies that is not specially prepared for babies or recommended by their Physician. False claims may kill, but false claims can never restore your child.

These symptoms lead to colds, In fluenza or other serious troubles unless corrected Immediately. An inactive liver places an extra bur den on the kidneys, which overtaxes them and causes the blood to absorb and carry into the system the impurities that the liver and kidneys have failed to elim inate. When you treat the liver alone, you treat only a third of your trouble, and that is why you have to take purgatives every few nights. Calomel or other ordi nary laxatives do not go far enough. If you would treat your kidneys and blood while treating the liver, you would put your entire system in order and frequent purgatives would then be 'unnecessary. Dr. W. Jj.
