In One Nidhti. THE I
GRADING VEGETABLES FOR
MARKET.
(Extract from an address delivered
at the last annual convention of the
Ontario Vegetable Growers' A.seocietion
by Paul Work, Cornell University.)
Ever year sees the work of grading
eating a larger figure in the work of
marketing vegetables than it did before.
Grading was onee unknown, To -day the
producer of fruits aud vegetables is fol.
lowing (dose upon the trail of the manu-
facturer who long ago realized the neces.
eity of uniformity. The eitrue people
took the lead in this. The western apple
shippers were next, with the vegetable
ehippere elose upon their heels, The pro.
gresseve market gardeners ere now
awake to the fact that two gnarled
cucumbers eut the price of the whole
bushel. hundreds. of growers are etill
etileep,
Every man and every community must
make its own plan of grading. What
suits one market dace not atilt enother.
Many are diecouraged in setting the
standard high because the lower grades
are becoming increasingly difficult to
sell, We ha,d to diseard a considesable
proportion of the second grade tomato ?ei
at Cornell during the past season, but
it paid. At one time ordinary run -of -
the -field fruit was bringing twenty-five
cents a baeket. Our primes mid at forty
cents, and seconds at twenty and twenty-
five cente.
Seconds are not Wanted in large quan-
tity on most markets. Many hold that
the moral of this is, "Don't grade, If
the eonetuner doesn't want . eeconle,
make them take them with the beet."
But the true moral le, "Don't grow
seconds." Of course, there will be Aome
inferior fruit, but if by selecting a vell-
bred etrain of a good variety, and by
giving the best of eulture, we can reduce
the secondto very low proportiena, e
will not mind leaving a, few culla in the
A COMMON MISTAKE.
One of the most common mietakes in
grading is in reducing the standards
when the price drops, When markets
are glutted, tho question ceases ,to be
one of securing a high price'but It be-
comes a, question of moving the crop or
letting it rot. People continue to uee
the product, and that in large quan-
tities. They are willing to pay a price
Which will cover marketing eost and a
good. share of production, but the gOes.
tion is, Which grower sells or which
dose not? Naturally, the one with the
,best sena The following clipping, which
Is typical of a large number that ap-
peared in our trade papers last . eon,
furnishes good evidence an this point:
"Lettuce from state points has been in
free receipt, and much has been sold for
lees than charges. Fanev, heayv-headed
stock is worth fifty to seventy-five eente
a bushel, but average grades neglected
at ten to twenty-five cents a package."
The time of oversupply le the tirne
when grading counts. The grower has
established his trade on a basis of qual-
ity, and by maintaining that basis he
is able to hold on while theeether fellow
drops out. Moreover, Mr. Grader eisll
holds the trade when the market picks
up,
It is by no means easy to maintain a
standard of grading. One naturally de -
elves a maximum of primes and a mini-
mum of Seconds, and • be even uncon-
sciously tends downward. With hired
help, the problem is much more difficult.
The first essential is to form a mental
image of the standard for each grtitle,
working it out carefully and making it
neither too high nor too low. Fix thee
standards as far as possible by the use
of sizing boards and the like. Constant
and rigid inspection is then neceseary.
If a large ,quantity Is handled, each
worker should have a .number to be
placed in each basket. Thus responsi-
bility is fixed. just here is one 'of the
greatest advantages of machine grading.
A machine is free from the failing of
ltuznan nature.

.A.bout the only objeetion to guinea
hens is the noise they make. They are
reaeonably quiet enough uuless some-
thing disturbs them, when they will thea
give the alarm, at once, and whether ani-
mal or human being keep up their shrill
cries until they are left in peace again.
Hawks therefore have little chance to
pounce down upon poultry when tiles;
are neat, and for this reason they are
of inestiraable value in guarding fowls
of all kinds.
Guinea liens do not lay as large au

a guinea hen should lay 125 eggs or
more in a year. These can generally IA
sold at prices almost as good tes hen'
eggs. One has to find out where the
eggs are laid, however, for guineas will
hide their nest e and sometimes in: ob-
scure places, yet .by earefully watehing
them in the breeding season, the nest
is easily disclosed, as the guinea will

tion. As all the members of the floek
lay in one nest, no further trouble after
that should be experienced, provided the
eggs are gathered properly. It will not
do to take the eggs out with the liana.
The guinea hen can tell immediately if
human hands have tonehed the fleet,
and if they have she will leave it at once
and eeek another place to lay. The eggs
should therefore be removed with st
stick or, better yet, with a long -handled
spoon or ladle, provided one is alwa,ve
left as a nest'egg. They can be gathered
every day or two in this way with no
danger ineuered of the hens leaving the
nest.
There.are two varieties of the guinea,
the white and the pearl, both of evhieh
are of about the same shape and size,
but the pearl is considered of a milder
disposition than the white, and as a
rule is more careful to conceal it nest.

worms, bugs and grasshoppers, 'will gen-

eggs to hatch and when the chicks Brat

THE LATEST FAD,
Digestive Crawl as English Journal
Sees It.
An eminent food specialist has solemn-
ly exhorteci all whom it may concern
to abandon a perpendicular position after
meals. He has discovered, sit be avers,
that the only sure way of getting food
to assimilate quickly is to crawl about
a room on all fours.
'When he says "all fours' f is not
made quite clear whether one is to adopt
the infantile method of prog-ression, which
14 to go, upon tile hands and knees, or
whether the correct attitude is to walk
eh the palms of the hands, using the feet
in the usual way, which of course, places
one at an entirely different angle, glying
• one in short a kangaroolike effect.
Perhaps it does not much matter how
one floes so long as one is, so to speak,
in.the four 'legged attitude, which is said
to be an infanble means of promoting
digestion. But assuming that the dis-
covery Is every whit as. efficacious as
this French specialist avers. It is not
quite easy to see how we are to exer-
cise ourselves. Apparently, says, the
English Lady's Pictorial, there is much
that. we have yet to understand.
For example, much depends on the In-
terval of time that may be permitted
between the dinner and the digestive
crawl. Suppose on's dining hour to be
o'cicick, would it do to deranaulate one's
chamber on all fours in the dead waste
and middle of the night when one would
naturally be more suitably attired for the
exercise and when one be able to en-
joy privacy?
If it is neeessary to fall upon one's
hands and knees or one's hands and feet
as the ease may be, directly after dinner,
In order to make the process of digestion
complete then an entirely new aspect ot
at.he cure presents itself. We forsee many
difficulties, to- say nothing of the humor
of the situation. Even assutninK that
the scene is a private house at which
guests are generally entertained to dinner
what is to happen, one wonders, when
it is obvious the meal is over?
Is the hostess, instead of "collecting.
eyes" to signal to the servants to clear
the room? And is she then to drop on
all fours herself as an indication to her
guests that they take their digestive
crawl? Or Is she to take the ladles with
her to creep around the drawing room
while the men do their all fours exer-
cise alone? And then -what is to happen
ih restaurants? Will it become necessary
ter all our smart hotels to open "crawl-
ing rooms"?
The picture- presented to the mind's eye
of flushed matrons and. stout elderly
gentlemen crawling around in evening
des e ,in the attitude of a, eat being
approaehed by a dog scarcely suggests
dignity, to say nothing of comfort. Hav-
ing dined well, though most wisely, will

Ask yourself the important (1u:cation
