Town residents praise Adler ika a buckthorn bark and glycerine mix as a German remedy. A single dose relieves constipation bloating and sour stomach almost instantly and customers report renewed vitality. Edw Sheppard, Druggist.
The Yakima Valley Fruit Growers Association sold 775000 boxes of apples compared with 240000 by the Yakima County Horticultural Union. By Feb 1 1913 the Union had 47 percent sold and 53 percent on hand while the Association had 67 percent sold and 219 cars in cold storage across 18 cities. Prices varied by variety with several varieties shown around 1.00 per unit. The report notes potential for merger and highlights the Association as the Northwest's largest fruit selling agency. It also discusses consignment figures and advises on lime sulfur sprays with crude oil emulsion as an alternative.
A correspondent cites census figures showing 39.9 percent of farmers earning 250 dollars or less and 70 percent under 500 dollars after expenses. He questions basing the data on net income and argues such figures fail to meet the needs of modern American farmers and their families.
Agricultural journals note lime-sulphur spray failing to control pests. Proper application requires forcing spray through all tree parts to saturate woolly aphis and penetrate eggs of red spider and San Jose scale. Careful, thorough coverage remains essential.
Mrs D E Lyon of North Bend Oregon offers a cure from the Pacific Homestead. She claims feeding white beans to cows cures bloody or lumpy milk, noting navy or marrow fat beans as a lifelong aid used by her parents.
Historical experiments from Michigan and Iowa stations show silage as a cost effective roughage in lamb fattening. Trials indicate silage can lower ration costs while lambs fed silage reach market weight with slightly better carcass quality.
The article stresses breeding alone is not enough without good feeding to develop cows into high producers. It notes scrubs reared well can become profitable milkers and that dairy breeding increases milking potential. It highlights animal husbandry for meat, marketing farm products, and soil manure, urging ample cattle, grain, hay and grazing. A humorous quip contrasts cooking prowess with marriage.
