Early spring calves fetch higher prices as markets soften later. Good men are scarce but experienced helpers remain common, and farmers share labor. Onions store best in a dry ventilated loft to prevent moisture. Beware high price offers from untrusted commission houses. Mixing three grades of apples lowers to the price of the lowest grade. The Winesap apple suits the Southern mountains. beans are grown at home with no extra adaptation. A clean cow milked by a clean man into clean vessels and cooled promptly yields safe milk. Buy seed from reputable dealers to reduce seed complaints. Pack straw between roof and rafters to absorb moisture and keep the henhouse dry.
