| COMMON COURSE OF MARKET
DEPENDS LARGELY ON SUPPLY
The man’ engaged in either selling
{or buying perishable produce will do
(well to familiarize himself with the
usual course Of the market in such
lines during a season. The natural
market course, according to market-
‘ing experts of the United States De-
ipartment of Agriculture, is somewhat
las follows:
| It starts high with active move-
[ment even for inferior stock because
the demand has the sharp edge of
000000000 00000000CO0CO0O0OOCOOOCO00CO000000000O0OO00 novelty and appetite. The price
| gradually declines and poor stock be-
: comes harder to sell as the supply in-

| teer the heaviest shipments begin,
md a glut may occur, especially if
imany sections are shipping at once
E Band there is much poor stock. Then,

SAVE YOUR WORN TIRES
WE can save you money on
your tire expense each
year-—and enough to make it
worth while, too.
The motoring public are being
rapidly educated to re-tread their
tires as soon as the original tread
is mutilated to a’ point where
damage to the canvas, through
wear or rotting commences.
Therefore, just as soon as the
tread surface begins to develop
blisters, or to separate from the
canvas, and particularly’ where
TEE a ceases
faulty alignment wears away the ; Jo
tread surface through continuous ce *e Pll stock in storage to
skidding, re-treading should be {sell at high prices at the close of the
| season, especially the less perishable
| crops like potatoes, onions, apples,
cabbage, etc. Careful study of crop
shortage, supply, and shipment
should enable a fairly good judgment
to be made of the outcome. How-
ever, quickly perishable short season
crops like strawberries or melons are
very irregular, so it is difficult to
[form a reliable market judgment of
them.
Here is a medley of familiar say-
ings——some with variations—each of
{which applies to farm accounting and
so to the problem of marketing farm
products:
“Figures don’t lie.”
“A calculation in time saves nine.”
“Foresight is better than hind-
sight.” :
“It pays to count the cost.”
Specialists in the office of Farm
Management, United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture, could add to
| this list almost indefinitely, for their
[studies of methods of farm manage-
ment reveal the tremendous need of
jaccounting systems on American
farms. The farmer wants to know
whether his wheat pays, whether his
|cows pay, and whether his orrhard
pays, and yet he seldom has suffi-
ciently accurate figures to answer
such questions. Above all he ought
to know, and yet frequently does
not know if his farm as a whole is a
| paying proposition. Department of
Agriculture specialists do not claim
that the systems of accounting for
farms which they recommend will be
| absolutely exact. They are, never-
| theless, sufficiently accurate for all
ordinary requirements. The depart-
ment does not furnish sets of books
|to farmers. The systems which it
irecommends require only such books
as can be purchased of a stationer or
dealer in books and school supplies.
WHAT AN EGG CIRCLE DOES
The community egg circle—
Helps each member to dispose of
his surplus eggs and to secure a more
satisfactory price;
Helps the community to build up a
reputation for a guaranteed product;
Helps the Nation to reduce the to-
tal egg loss and conserve this sourse
[of its food supply.
The United States De partment of
Agriculture will be glad to tell vou
| just how to organize one. :

per cent. and the white 57 per cent.

immediately attended to.
Don’t throw your old worn out
tires away or sell them to the junk
man just because they are tread
worn, for we can re-tread them
with new rubber for you so that
you should get from 3,000 to

them.
