Sleep in Plenty A big feature of livestock day at Emerson-Brantingham building was Peter MoKensie's demonstration in sheep management, shearing, wooß tying, dipping and docking. "Hoot mom," exclaimed the jolly big Scotchman. "I'll ne'er be satisfied until I see Pennsylvania pastures white with sheep. "MoKensie is the boss sheep expert at State Col lege and he says Pennsylvania should be dotted with sheep because they can almost live on pasture and every part of them is valuable An important event for to-morrow is the address at I'enn-Harris by Dr. E. B. McCollum, of John's Hopkins who is reckoned to be the greatest j i authority on nutrition for man and beast. The experimental data which led l Professor McCollum to an under standing of nutrition such as has now been acquired, was obtained by studies on animals, byt he has like wise accumulated a vast amount of information concerning what several ' large groups of people throughout the world are eating, and his correla tion of these facts which the stand- I ards of health and efficiency are | most enlightening. He claims there is now available ' a sufficient amount of exact knowl | edge of human nutrition to enable us to eradicate several of the most I serious diseases which afflict the hu | man race, if it could be applied to daily life the world over.. He lectures I at the Penn-Harris Hotel on Thurs | day afternoon at 1.30 o'clock. Tells of Poultry Every raiser of poultry In the state was concerned with the talk this afternon of L. B. Sprecher, giv ! en to the Pennsylvania Poultry'Asso | ciation. He said: "The principal | part of the farming business which brings real success is the weak spot lin the farmer's armor, namely, ] marketing his product to the best advantage. "This can be remedied in only one 1 way—co-operation. This is done in ' Canada, where they explain that the j object of co-operation is to improve | Ihe quality of eggs as they leave the farm and to place them in the hands of the consumer with the least pos sible delay and in the best possible condition." He advised a co-operative associa tion which can obtain better prices ; with its large output. He em phasized that the cost of selling is ! much less when units are consolidat j ed; likewise the purchase of raw ma i terials is less. The speaker pointed out that the two routes for eggs to reach the con sumer are huckster and general store and that both of these entails an im mense amount of breakage, waste and expense, the cost coming event ually for the consumer. Concluding, he gave figures from the Canadian system used in On tario, as follows: The number of egg circles or units was thirty-six with a membership of 1,048. The cash receipts for eggs marketed co operatively wa55104,227.36.
