Avoid Scrub Stock
Dairymen, beware! Scrub stock
can “multiply” as rapidly as pure-
breds but they never get the “right
answer.”
Order Asparagus
Don’t forget to order your aspara-
gus roots for spring planting. Now
is the time. Extension Leaflet No.
19 issued by the Pennsylvania State
College tells you how to plant this
choice vegetable.
Hard Stuff for Birds
Grit and oyster shell should be
before the poultry flock at all times.
Gri: is used for the grinding and
crushing of food in the gizzard.
Oyster shell, which cannot replace
grit, is fed for the lime it contains.
| Have Tools Ready
| The degree of sucess in home gar-
'dening and also the amount of plea-
sure derived from working in tne
garden is largely determined by the
kind of tools used. The variety of
labor saving hand tools is large
and they are inexpensive. Now is
the time to look over the equipm:nt
of tools on hand and repair them if
nceessary. In selecting new tools
particular soil conditions should be
kept in mind as all tools will not
work under all conditions. If your
garden is one-fifteenth of an acre
or larger in size you should have a
hand wheel hoe.
Bossie’s Best Breakfast Food
Alfafa for Pennsylvania is no
‘dream. It is past the experimental
stage in many sections of the state.
| For those who want to know more a-
bout it Extension Circular No. 104
is waiting at the Pennsylvania State
College, State College, Pa., for
vour name and address.
Pruning Flowers
If winter pruning of shrubs is
done cut only those that produce
flowers on terminal growth, such as
roses and hydrangeas. All others
should be pruned after flowering.

COOPERATIVE SALES AID
LIVESTOCK IMPROVEMENT
The manner in which co-operative
livestock sales are helping to im-
prove the quality of farm animals in
Kentucky is described by a stock-
man of that State in a recent letter
to the United States Department of
Agriculture. The method is consid-
ered to be of general interest.
“The co-operative sales we are
having in every town of any size in
Kentucky,” he writes, “help more to
improve the quality of livestock than
any other one thing. Before these
were organized the traders came to
our pastures and bought our stock
or we shipped it to the big markets.
If we had good-quality stock we nev-
ler saw it with that of other people
where we could compare the differ-
ence. And if you did not get as
much money for your stock as some
one else did you generally thought
you had shipped to the wrong man
or your stock was not so fat as the
other person’s. You seldom stopped
to think that quality made the dif-
ference.
“But every man who brings his
stock to these co-operative markets
sees it run out in the ring and sold
there. He also sees every one else’s
stock sold and has a chance to see
the difference and to compare the
difference in prices between good
and bad quality. I have heard num-
bers of persons say that they were
going to buy better ewes and a bet-
ter buck. This applies not only to
sheep but to all kinds of livestock.”
The foregoing comment is one of
numerous suggestions made by farm-
ers who answered a questionnaire
sent out by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture in the in-
terests of livestock improvement.
Department specialists are now ana-
lyzing the replies of more than 650
livestock owners who have reported
their experiences in raising ' scrub,
grade and purebred animals.

HOUSEWIVES VICTIMS
OF RECENT HAM FRAUD
|
Selling packinghouse cured shoul-
and hams as country cured
hams at a price in excess of prevail-
ing values is the latest misrepresen-
tation and fraud designed for the
unsuspecting hougewives. ‘This
practice was recently unearthed by
the Bureau of Foods and Chemistry,
culture.
A group of men operating under
the guise of farmers with headquar-
“country hams” to housewives in a
door-to-door canvass in different
parts of the State. These defraud-
ers were found to be selling should-
ers instead of hams to housewives
who do not know the difference be-
tween packinghouse cured should-
ers and country hams. The ham
salesmen are shrewd so that in case
the housewife shows some ~know-
ledge of the difference between ham
and shoulders, the ham is sold to
her. Otherwise she will be sold the
shoulder at a fancy ham price.
Consumers who do not desire to
be defrauded in this manner are
warned by State officials to be on
their guard when solicited by any-
(one offering hams for sale. Both
{the shoulders and the hams sold by
the above defrauders can be disting-
(uished from country cured hams by
{the fact that they carry government
cured hams do not carry.

A MOUNT JOY BOY
WILL CAPTAIN TEAM
At least one Mount Joy boy has
achieved fame on other gridirons
but our own, and that boy is Sylves-
ter J. Dearbeck, formerly of Mount
Joy, but now of Potomac State Col-
ledge, Keyser, West Virginia.
“Deerie” Dearbeck, as he is known,
played in various games on the
Mount Joy town football team dur-
ing the 1920 and 1921 seasons. He
then went to school at the Westing-
house Tech School, Pittsburgh.
There he played football to some ex-
tent, not achieving any wonders.
Last fall he entered the Potomac
State College, where he made the
playing brilliantly and gaining the
respect and honor of the whole stu-
dent body. He shone especially in
the West Virginia State Freshmen-
Potomac State game.
At the banquet of the football
team held last month, he was re-
warded by being elected captain of
the 1925 football team. This is
quite an honor for Dearbeck, espe-
cially so because of his election 8s
year. The “Pasquino”, the weekly
paper issued at Potomac State Col-
ledge has this to say about Dear-
beck: “The climax of the evening
the election of “Deerie’” Dearbeck
as pilot of State's destiny on the
gridiron.
The election was participated in
by the entire squad, the balloting
being under the direction of Athle-
tic Director Grimes and Coach Par-
rish.
The choice of a leader to succeed
retiring “Dick” Winters was fault-
less. The Mount Joy footballer
gained his way into the hearts of the
Potomac State students and follow-
ers soon after the first blast of the
whistle in the West Virginia Fresh-
men-Potomac State game.
It is an ever-present trait with
him to be an instigator of pep and
fight. It is the story of his 1924 ef-
forts, and features every minute of
play.
Plans are already being made for
the formation of the 1925 Potomac
State schedule, and with Sylvester
J. Dearbeck as leader, prospects for
another strong football eleven are
shaping themselves for the coming
season.

[1,194 VIOLATE FOOD
LAWS AND PAY PENALTY
| During 1924, 1,194 cases were
{terminated against persons who vi-
olated State laws in selling eggs,
milk, butter, sausage and other
foods, $439,839.61 were collected in
fines and 6,466 samples of foods
were analyzed, according to James
Foust, Director, State Bureau of
Foods and Chemistry, who has just
submitted his annual report on the
activities of the Food Section to F.
P. Willits, Secretary of Agriculture.
it's a food we have analyzed it,”
Mr. Foust has insisted upon the
most rigid enforcement of all food
laws under his charge. During the
18 years in which he has directed
the food law enforcement work in
the State Department of Agriculture,
125,683 samples of food have been
collected and analyzed, 17,575 cases
have been terminated against violat-
ors and $5,603,868.56 has been col-
lected in fines and fees. All this
work has been conducted at an ex-
pense to the state of only $1,496,-
931.57, which means that the Food
Section has returned to the State
Treasurer $4,006,936.99 more than
it spent.
The number of prosecutions suc-
cessfully terminated in 1924 repre-
sents the second highest number of
any one year since 1907, being ex-
ceeded in 1923 by only one case.
