Unlike Topsy— Swift & Company Has Not “Jest Growed” Swift & Company, in fifty years of wel ordered growth, has become one of the great national services because it has learned to do something for the American people which they needed to have done for them, in the way in which they preferred to have it done. It has met each successive demand, in the changing conditions of national life, by getting good meat to increasing mil- lions effectively, efficiently, economically, and expeditiously. The Swift & Company packing plants, refrigerator cars, car routes, branch houses, organization, and personnel of today are the practical solutions, born of practical experience, to the food problems of half a century. Because of all these elements working in correlation and unison, Swift & Company is able to supply more and better meat to more people than would have been pos- sible otherwise, at a net profit per pound of meat so low (a fraction of a cent) that the consumer price is practically unaffected. Strip away any portion of this vast, smooth-running human machine, and you make a large part of the meat supply uncertain, lose the benefit of half a century of fruitful experience, and scatter the intelligent energies of men who have devoted a life work toward meeting the needs of a nation in one vital field.

And this year, when commercial fertil- izers are high in price or impossible to Late save every bit of the farm manure. “Apply as fast as made” rule before the ground freezes, and even later than that on level ground. But in hilly sections the farmers doubtless are right in thinking there is too much from the manure washing down the hillsides after the ground freezes, or on the snow, Then, in the Norsh the snow is some- loss too, ticable. Pit for Storing. Most literature on the subject of pit building for manure storage is based on using concrete for material, While this will usually pay if capital is avail able, many farmers feel they do not have the money to put into it. Fortu- nately there are other ways that will help greatly with little or no cash ex- pense. If a roof is already available under which to store the manure, the ground should be or. hetter, made to slope oward the The n, if the soll is sandy or loa he face should be retpovedd to a Fly of t clay leveled, center. my, t or so and the heavies put in. six inches procurable | wetted and thoroughly tamped down. This process should be repeated until the desired height is obtained. The outside rim may well be a foot or more higher than the center, this depending on the size of the pit and the ease of access for hauling away the manure While such a bottom will hold much | of the liquid, it is better to cover It with some absorbent material—dry loam is good if bedding is scarce. Do not use wood ashes, but coal ashes are harmless if screened. Continue to use enough loam to prevent any liquid from oozing from the pile, which should be kept level, moist and well tamped. Horse manure, unless mixed | with that. from cows or hogs, should be wetted thoroughly—but not enough to drain out—in order to keep it from heating, as heating causes a heavy loss, Keep Under Roof. If there is no roof under which to manure, a cheap one should be built. This may be a oneslope “jean-to” along the outside of the barn, a cheap shed with sides, or sim- ply four he high posts on which a roof slides up or Sawa ng to the height of the manure as is used in some oe for o keep the vy. ’ ACO such tdoor hay- stacks, If you can't do all these things, do what you can.

(Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) To sell farm equipment on the basis of what it 11d the dealer to replace it may be considered profiteer- ing, according to a statement fesned recently by the office of farm equip- ment control of the United States de partment of agriculture. Persons who have sold equipment at replacement values when costs were high must continue to do so If prices go down, even though such sales bring than the original cost prige of the stock. ing price Is fixed In replacement prices must restock im- mediately and carry the same quantity of equipment thromghout the high- Price period as they had at its begin- ning. In order not to profiteer. Those wou cost less ing their stock should not sell at a prevailing high price, but at cost plus a fair usual profit, It will be considered hoarding if manufacturer or dealer holds, con- tracts for, or arranges for more equip ment than the reasonable demands of his business require. Dealers finding themselves with excess stock on hand through inadvertence should sell thelr excess holdings at cost plus a fair usual profit. The hoarding of farm equipment ls defined by the act of congress of Au- gust 10, 1917. Manufacturers or deal- ers who hoard will be dealt with un- der the terms of this act of congress ment values just issued by the equip- ment control office, BENEFITS OF MOTOR TRUCKS Cross-Country Hauling Again Has Be- come Widely Used for Inter.

SERRE 2030 20 20 00 20 2 2 1 20 00 1 2 2 0 0 er (Prepared by the United Btates Depart. ment of Agriculture.) Further proof that there is a close relationship between the rust of bar berries and of wheat and other cer eals has resulted In active campaigns to eradicate the shrub In many com munities. Two rather striking cases of this close relationship were observed recently in Indiana. In one locality a field of wheat, along one side of which grew a barberry hedge, was practical iy destroyed by the black stem rust The case was so clear that 17 farm- ers held a field observation day under the guidance of the county agent and immediately drew up resolutions, in which they stated that the relation was | so clear that they wished to go on record as favoring legislation to erad | jcate ali barberry bushes from the state. In another case a hedge of bar berry and two deep plantings were | found on a farm upon which a wheat { field was so badly affected that the | erop was a partial fallure. A second | field near by was very seriously affect: ed also, as well ag a number of fields in the vicinity, Similar cases have wen observed in a number of other states, berry is growing rapidly. It Is sald that Japanese barberry does not har bor the wheat rust. PLACE MACHINERY IN HOUSE. Valuable Implements From | Exposure In Winter—Paint All iron or Steel Parts.
