There is about the same record of extortion on coffee, the average import price of which, includ Ing an ocean freight rate, was 8 cents a pound, for which the consumer was taxed from 25 to 40 cents. It does not take an expert analyst to make clear from the above figures that not only Is the producer of these two commodities not getting what he ought for them, but that the consumer Is required to pay from 40 to CO per cent more than conditions would seem to indicate that tber are fairly worth.

I girdle of bark, the latter part of Au gust. For many readers who have had trouble kUlhis these hardy trees . this suggestion 1 worth remembering. Good profits may te made in dairylug a ltd fruit raising; but. if reports are to be credited, the easiest money Is made by a l!ji army of sharks aud grafters who make a business of farming tKKkeus. the ektss of folks who ar always hotfoot to get something for nothing, the crop of which seems perennial. lil;e q;i':ck grass, muni pa and fleas. The low form of vegetable life that makes the sreen scum la water tanks may be done away with by dissolving copper sulphnte In the tank at the rata of one two-hwndredths of a pound of the chemical to a hundred cations J of water. This chemical 1.4 poisonous ! and used in larger quantities than this would be injurious to the stock drink ing it. Conditions point to a record break Ing cotton crop for the year. The area planted Is S3.O04.OiV) acres, as com pared with S3.41S.OOO Hst year, whllo tho condition of the crop as reported June 1 was 87.S rf a normal as com pared with 82 jer cent for the corresponding period in 1010 and 80.9 per " cent, the average condition for t ho past ton years. , While the growth of timber of the hardwood varieties 1. usually a mark of a fertile roll. It cannot always be relied upon an Indicative of the character of the surface soli, as the roots of many trees penetrate deep. But where one finds clover growing naturally the evidence Is quite conclusive that the soil is rich and also that It is sweet and does not need liming. An experiment made recently by the department of agriculture for the pur- ' pose of testing the shrinkage in corn, in storage showed that 28,000 pounds of shelled corn kept under ordinary conditions for a period of 147 days lost 1.070 pounds, or about 7 per cent, as a result of evaporation of moisture. Weighings made at frequent Intervals showed that the corn gained in weight in wet weather and shrank spondlngly in dry. A lot of farmers who do not live ta territory nnually termed semi-arid have been confronted with a pretty stiff dry farming proposition this year and out of It all may learn something that will stand them in good stead in the years to come. One of these lessons is the advantage of a very thorough preparation of the seed bed for small grain, also the harrowing of small grain to break the crust after It Is up; secondly, the distinct advantage of a frequent and careful tillage of such crops as corn and potatoes. The writer has seen some pretty effective execution done within the past few weeks with one of the guillotlno or terror rat traps. Cheese, grain or a piece of meat makes excellent bait, but a small piece of bone with gristle attached nud tied to the tongue of the trap Is perhaps the best bait of all. Care should lie used in setting tbo trap, for a blow that will break a rat's back or crush Its skull Is apt to break the bone of one's finger. While the campaign is being, waged the traps should be attended to daily, baited at night and emptied in the morning. Moreover, the trnps should be placed so that neither kittens, chickens nor children can have access to tbem. A number of state experiment stations are now offering courses in poultry management especially designed tj fit men who desire to go into poultry farming for themselves. ' Among praticar lines taken up are feeding, tb nse of incubators and brooders, anatomy and physiology of poultry, marketing various iu!try products and poultry judging. There I little question that It would le t!me nvA money well spent for those planning to taka up poultry rnlsing on an extensive srale and possessing no previous experience to take jn?t each a course. They would be able to s?cure instruction from experts and acquire experience In the business without the heavy losses that often accompany the early efforts of novices who take up th poultry business. "July and Angnst are pre-eminently the two months in which that Joint rooting, drought defying pest, crab grass, gets in Its work, often counteracting and renVring futile most of the good hoe ancf cultivator work done dating May and June. , It is fortunate that crab grass Is an annual. This means that th. root does not lire through the winter and that to exterminate It all one needs to do is to keep ft from going to eed. It Is hard to overcome, for tb reason that It makes most of its grovth in corn, potatoes and other cultivated crop after they have been laid by; hence to get rid of It one must wage a persistent fight from now on by pulling and hoeing so as to keep any seed from maturing. This will require a lot of persevering work when the sun beats down hard, but the reward wCI be a clean garden next season. WANTED YOUR MACHINE .
