HAY SHIPPERS FREQUENTLY MEET WITH LOSS IN EARLY SHIPMENTS Tight Baling and Close Packing of Hay Cause Heating. (Pr*par*d by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Every year when new hay begins to be marketed, reports from several cen tral western buy markets show that much of the new hay arriving Is hot and out of condition, and must be sold at a heavy discount under the price quoted for No. 1 hay. There tire a number of causes, but the bureau of markets and crop estimates of the United States Department of Agricul ture believes the principal one Is that the hay Is baled and shipped before It has cured sufficiently and while It contains too much moisture. Baling Newly Cut Hay Is Risky. It Is the custom In some sections to j hale the hay front the windrow or cock In order to avoid the expense of stacking ot putting In the mow. It Is almost always true that the first new hay shipped to the various murk- I ets Is haled In this way. In most of j the timothy-producing sections weather conditions are such that it is not safe 1 to allow the hay to remain long fn either the windrow or cock, if the best quality of hay is to he obtained. ! Loenl showers or heavy dews, followed I by a hot sun, will soon cause it to I bleach and deteriorate. II Is, there j fore, the practice to hale Just as soon | ns, In the judgment of the producer or shipper, the hay can be safely shipped. Tills is frequently entirely too soon for the conditions under which it Is marketed. The movement of hay from a dry to a humid section, or from n cool to a warmer one. Increases the proba bility of heating. Tight bullng and close packing In the cars are con tributing causes, and apply to alfalfa and prairie hay as well us to timothy. Higher Pricet Invite Early Shipment. The easiest way to avoid the losses caused by hay getting out of condition Is not to ship new hay until it has gone through the “sweat” and becomes properly cured In the mow or stack. The premiums usually offered for early shipments of new liny are very In viting, however. The first new hay, If In good condition, often sells near the price of old hay which, us the sea son draws to a close. Is frequently SOWING TURNIPS TO FOLLOW VEGETABLES Excellent Crop to Utilize Waste Spaces in Garden. tsasonably Rich Soil Is Essential, Finely Raked and Leveled Off to Avoid Water Collecting in Little Pools. (Prepared by the United State* Department ot Agriculture.) As a crop to utilize garden space after early vegetables have been har vested, nothing is better than the turnip. Turnips should be planted in most parts of the country about July 25, hut In the extreme South as late as the last of August and can he left In the ground until after several light frosts or all winter In the South. They are useful as a table vegetable and to a limited extent will supply the place es potatoes. It Is the general opinion of specialists of the United States De partment of Agriculture that the Amer ican public could consume many more turnips tliun It does. For field sowing, turnips are usually oroadeast. The particular . require ment Is a reasonably rich soil finely raked and leveled off to avoid water collecting in pools. The seed should he sowed sparingly. One homely rule Is to take the quantity which seems ! sufficient and divide It in half. After | the seeds have been scattered on the surface of the ground, they should be well raked In. This may he done by dragging a piece of brush over the ground. The surface should be well smoothed. It Is a good plan to sow turnips Just after a rain, giving % them opportunity to sprout before a crust forms. After sowing they will need little attention until harvest. Common Garden Error. One of the common faults In garden ing Is making rows of plants too close together and leaving the plants too close in the row. This causes plants to suffer for moisture and the lack of plant food. Give more distance. Not Good as Fertilizer. Sawdust is not a good fertilizer and should not be spaded into the garden until It has rotted so that It almost disintegrates. It Is a favorite breeding place for certain kinds of Insects. Burt! It and use the ashes. THE MONTGOMERY MONITOR VFTryON. GEORGIA. high. The new hay Is heavier, too, and the shipper profits from the sale of the water in it, even though it sells below the price of old hay. The chance of getting these premiums : causes many shippers to take the risk of the losses that continually occur. It Is very doubtful, however. If the premiums equal the losses during the first week or two of the movement. While the shipment of new hay is not advised until It Is cured so as to contain not more than 14 or 15 per cent moisture, a few suggestions are offered by the Department of Agriculture, : which, if followed, will tend to cllmi jL, Harvesting Hay. nate some of the losses frequently Incurred. The principal ones are: Press the hay In the bale as loosely iis possible to get the minimum weight In the car. Load hay in cars witfh air space about the bales; standing the bales on end is considered a good prac tice. Ship first hay to near-by markets only. Hay shipped Into low or humid ter ritories should he drier than when shipped into dry or high sections. Provide ventilation for cars when possible. Bill cars so that no delay will occur In handling or unloading at destina tion. SERUM DOES NOT ELIMINATE Clean-Up of Hog Cholera Cannot Bz Expected Through Use of This Modern Treatment. Some persons think that the use of hog cholera serum has become so general that we are far on the way toward the elimination of the disease, hut, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, a clean-up of cholera can not be expected through the use of this method. Besides, only a small percentage of the hogs In the country are treated eneh year and there is also almost a Complete turn over of the swine population each year. Every 12 months we start with a new lot of pigs and the fight against disease must start at the beginning again. About 500,000,000 cubic centimeters of serum are used every year, whieh means that, counting 50 cubic centi meters for each hog, only about 10,- 000,000 hogs are treated. In recent years there have been around 70,000,- 000 hogs In the country on January 1, according to federal crop estimators, which means many more hogs In the spring and summer. If all these hogs were treated cholera would not he eliminated. It would simply he made Impotent to kill many hogs for one season and would begin to kill again the next season If serum were not used. Serum treatment, like insur ance. can not be allowed to lapse. PUREBRED SURELY PAID WELL Lambs From Registered Sire Brought More Money Than Those From Scrub in Missouri. In the sheep tlock the purebred sire Is a money maker. In one experiment at the Missouri College of Agriculture the lambs from a purebred rain brought o>fi per cent more money than lambs of the same age fed In the same way hut sired by a scrub. The lambs from the purebred ram welged more at three months of age than the lambs sired by the Inferior ram at four months of age. Dressing Asparagus Bed.

(Prepared by the United State* Department of Agriculture.)

Up to December 31, $212,077,246 had j been put to work In projects either en- j rirely complete or under construction, i To match that amount the states ap- j proprlated $285,379,312, making a total 1 of $497,456,558. If placed end to end the roads to be j ' paid for by this money would encircle the earth at the equator and extend as far as from New York to San Fran cisco on the second lap. The total | mileage of roads under construction j and completed, the department’s rec ords show, whs approximately 27,000 miles. Os this miluge 9,555 miles was in projects entirely completed. The balance of 17,445 miles was in projects which were still under construction hut reported 69 per cent complete Oc tober 31. In those projects there was the equivalent of 12,000 miles of com pleted roads, so that the completed road to date was more than 21,000 miles, or nearly enough to encircle the globe. Prior to five years ago the federal government took no active part in the road construction of the country. To day about one-half of all roads under construction are being aided financial ly by the federal government, and the construction is subject to inspection and approval of federal engineers. APPROVE HIGHWAY PROJECTS According to Announcement of Bu reau Every Type of Construction Is Represented. Ninety-three road construction proj- \ ects in 28 states were approved sot federal aid during October by the bu- ! renu of public roads, United States j Department of Agriculture, according to a compilation Just made public. Virtually every type of construction is represented In the approved projects. The states in which these projects were approved and the number of projects approved In each state fol low: Alabama, 3; Arkansas, 3; Cali fornia, 2; Colorado, 1; Florida, 1; \ Idaho, 1; Kansas, 8; Maryland, 5; Massachusetts, 2; Minnesota, 15; Mis sissippi, 6; Missouri, 4; Montana, 1; Nebraska, 2; Nevada, 1; New Mexico, 2; North Dakota, 2; Ohio, 2; Okla homa. 1; Pennsylvania, 5; South Carolina, 5; South Dakota, 1; Texas, 3; Utah, 1; Virginia, 12; Washington, 1; Wisconsin, 2, and Wyoming, 1. The longest single stretch of roadway approved in one project during the month was an earth road In Calhoun county, Misssissippi, 35.3 miles long; the shortest, 0.9 mile, was a brick road In Stark county, Ohio. GOOD USE FOR SUBSTITUTES Gravel and Macadam Can Be Em ployed Until More Durable Type of Road Is Built. It will require several years for the United States to carry out the plans for a comprehensive system of hard surfaced highways. Until such time as the main highways can be built of the durable type, gravel und macadam may be used as substitutes, but wliat the whole country wants and demands are real houest-to-goodness good roads. One of Largest Industries. lload building in the United States Is one of the nation’s largest indus tries, a million men being employed last year throughout the construction season at building or repalriug the country's highways. Asphalt Streets in Majority. Virtually 61 per cent of all the mu nicipal streets In the United Stares have an asphalt top. As a consequence of heavy truck traffic many of these streets are beginning to show serious ividences of disintegration. SWAMP-ROOT FOR !
