tail prices to the farmer, And wise
market operators realize that they
should establish prices which give
the consumer sume advantage for
coming out to the roadside or farm
markets,
Charging all the traffic will bear has
proven fatal to roadside markets, One
of the best illustrations of mistake In |
charging top prices is had in the rec-
ords of two Michizan roadside markets |
located 50 rods apart, f
One market, operated by a man who |
bought most of the stuff he displayed,
charged a profit of at least 50 per |
cent. His prices were higher than
retail at the time of the investigation.
Low-grade pears which cost him 50
cents a bushel, sold at $1.25; tree-run
pears available ia city stores at $1.75
a bushel were quoted at $2. Eight
cent melons sold at 30 cents and $2
peaches cost him $1. The same grade
was selling in town for 25 cents less.
The other market, selling only what
the farmer raised, aimed at a 25 per
cent profit.
Figures at the end of the first sea-
son showed the farmer-owned market
did the most business—8$2670, to be
exact, yielding a profit of 21 per cent
or $3560, The other stand took in
$1,740, and the profit was $715, or 41
per cent. Neither market made the
planned margin.
The reaction of
plainly shown the following season,
when the farmer who sold his own
stuff did a business totaling $3,200.
His profit was $720, His competitor,
charging higher prices, took in $3820,
of which $205 was profit. The third
season showed similar results, by
which time the second ma osed
up because of lack of customers.
Practical roadside market prices are

marketing, with sufficient
margin to covering operating expenses
and a reasonable profit. In other

hand, I know of In-
where it has been necessary
to sell at lower than wholesale; but
prices of other things were sufficiently
high so that a profit on general pur-
chases was possible.
Few markets split pennies such as
retail stgres do. The idea is to move
more goods, of course; but I find the
extra penny which is added when odd
rents are charged and only one quan-
tity is desired, has a tendency to cause
customers to look to something else.
Greater volume is now being attempt-
ed by offering fruit, vegetable and oth-
er produce in units of three—that is,
three bunches of radishes for 1 cents
or 5 cents each. Some customers will

FORCED PULLET IS
NOT BEST PRODUCER
Should Have Time to De-
velop Necessary Stamina.
“Pullets should be given every op-
portunity to develop normally without
being forced, in order that they may
have the body vigor to withstand a
long and continuous period of heavy
egg production,” says 0, C. Ufford, ex-
tension poultryman for the Colorado
agricultural college.
“It Is not good practice,” he adds,
“to force growth by the use of a heavy
protein diet over the entire growing
period.
“Birds that have received such a
diet will start laying a month or three
weeks earlier than the normal matur-
Ing period for the breed, but they will
not have the body growth that enables
them to stand up under heavy egg pro-
duction over a long period of time.”
For pullets on a summer range, a
growing mash of ground grains con-
taining 10 per cent meat scraps and 5
per cent bone meal, is suggested. This
may be kept before them all the time
in outdoor hoppers. The hoppers
should be so constructed that very
little mash can be wasted, and the hop-
pers should never be allowed to go
empty, it is stated.
This growing mash may be kept be
fore the pullets until they are three
or four months old, depending on thelr
development. Then, in order to pre
vent too rapid development, the per
centage of meat scraps may be greatly
reduced by adding ground oats or
barley, corn meal or bran to the grow
ing mash mixture. Reduction of the
animal food allows the pullets to grow
and without stimulating the
growth of the egg-producing organs.
“This method of handling pullets
enahles them to put on body weight
and fat, and when they into
winter production will be able
to produce steadily because of their
and vitality,” Ufford
