Right Marketing
of Farm Produce
Of Benefit to Producers and
Consumers, Says Depart
ment of Agriculture.
iPrepared by th« V’nlu.l Stataa Dapartmant
of Agrlcultura.)
The orderly marketing of farm
products that is proving of direct ban*-
flt to both producers and consumers
Is being greatly stimulated by the
Improved marketing practices extend
ed by federal market investigators
during the past year, the United States
Department of Agriculture announces.
Among the Improvements that have
shown the greatest expansion are the
inspection of farm products at ship
ping points, use of standard grades,
increased use of warehouse facilitiej
under federal supervision, co-opejartfve
marketing, and prompt disTtttohtlon of
market news.
The shipping point inspection serv
ice enables farmers to have their
products imtpected at loading points
by state inspectors licensed and super
vised by the Department of Agricul
ture. Co-operative arrangements for
such service have been made In 25
states, providing inspection at more
than tiOO leading shipping points. In
spections during the past year totaled
more than 72.000 cars of fruits and
vegetables. Of this number. Inspec
tions In Colorado aggregated 25.000
oars; California waa next with 18.000
cars; Idaho. 18.000 can; Washington.
0.000 ran. and New Jeraey, 1.500 cam.

Hog Cholera Disease
Difficult to Control
Sanitation and Preventive
Serum Are Urged.
(PrvpsrvS by the Celt*4 ftstv* DepartmviM
•f Agrlcwitera.) •
Approximately ^ per cent of the
hogs on farm* in the United States
died of hog <$ol&a last '‘year. Thli
appraisal of the ravages of hog chol
era la made by the bureau of animal
industry. United States Department of
Agriculture, for the year ended April
30, 1923, and Is based on estimate!
of the buj-eau of agricultural econom
ics. Losses were heaviest liT Iowa,
Nebraska, Indiana, Mis^uri, Illinois,
Ohio, Georgia, AUflftesota, and South
Dakota In order named. Each
of these^states lost more than 100,-
lead of swine from the disease
during the year, assuming that 80 per
cent of the deaths from all causes
’among hogs is due to cholera. The
total itumber of swine lost from hog
cholera exceeded 2,250,000, valued at
approximately $29,303,000.
The highly contagious nature of hog
cholera makes the disease difficult to
control. The preventive serum treat
ment combined with strict sanitation
and thorough disinfection of premises
after outbreaks, are the most effective
control measures. The. losses reintrted
for last year are not so great as in
1913 and 1914 when the diaease ap
peared particularly prevalent, but
they were larger than department ex-
perta consider they ahould have oeen
considering that awine growers have
a preventive treatment which la effec
tual, If uved property before the ani
mals become sick.

the department for t&e llceaaiac of

work In that direction Is now being
undertaken.
Approximately 10,000 fanner co-op
erative organisations with a member
ship of more than 1,000.000 farmers
are now actively operating In the
United States, the department says.
As a .result of .the department’s stud
ies of co-operative principles and prac
tices both in the United States and
abroad, the principles of successful
co-operjjtUin are now fairly well un
derstood, and food producers all over
the country are applying them to their
business. The department is regarded
as the leading authority on this sub
ject, the information developed being
wddely disseminated through agricul
tural extension services, county
agents, and the press.

Extension of the federal market
news service byxtelegraph and radio
during the year now makes it pos

For aurh orrharda, F H Ballou, a*

! statlen. recommends tBe application
I of a mixture of eq°nl parts of altrate
of soda or sulphate of ammonia, and
acid phosphate.
Hr would apply three fertilisers
very early In the spring Just aa the
buds begin to swell. For a p<wrlj
nourished twenty-year-old apple tree,
about ten pounds of the mixture ta
suggested. This Is scattered evenly In
a circle beneath and a little beyond
the branches, but keeping a few feet
away Yrom the base of the tree.
For trees from five to len years of
age applications of from three to five*
pounds are recommended.
Fruit trees covered with a rich dark-
green foliage and large twig growth
probably need very little nitrogenous

Cost of Marketing Hogs
by Co-Operative Scheme
Terminal charges, such as commis
sion, yardage and feed, amount to
t one-third of the total cost of
marketing hogs by co-operative ship
ping associations. The United States
Department of Agriculture recently
made a study of 237 live stock ship
ping associations In the Middle West,
and found that'^Bdra la considerable
variation in the shipping coats be
