DUST LAYING.
Oil Ueed by Canadian Town to Sprinklo
Streets.
Consul Augustus G. Soyfert of
Owen Sound. Out., says that "the
sandy lake shore soli upon which
Owen Sound is located results In very
dusty streets. No mutter how much
rain falLj or how much water Is
sprinkled on the streets In an hour
thereafter the dust becomes a nuisance
uud a menace to health. To overcome
this the municipal authorities ex
perlmented with oil. which proved
such a success that now all the prln
clpal streets In the town are oiled
These thoroughfares are macadamized
and are flrst swept clean and the oil
put on immediately after with the
sprinkler.
"The objection at first was that the
odor from the crude oil was offensive,
but In a day or two this disappeared,
and the change for the better to dust
less streets was recognized by all.
The first application of oil lasted sIn
weeks, and the second application was
nut on the other day. and what
were some of the dustiest streets an
now perfectly dustless.
"The town officials state that It will
be an annual saving of .?:i,000 over the
old water system and at the tsume
time give" much better results."
Marketing Through Shipping Associa
tions Explained by Government.
The perishable nature of the Inimn
ture potato renders It necessary to
place It upon the market In such quan
titles only as will admit of Immediate
consumption. Producers In regions
where the growing of early potatoes
has been extensively developed appre
ciate this and have provided for. this
condition by organizing shippers' asso
ciations through which the crop Is
graded, often trademarked, and distrib
uted chiefly in carload lots. The offi
cers of the association, being lu con
stant .telegraphic communication with
the various markets, are thus Informed
regarding the most satisfactory des
tination for every consignment which
may bo necessary. It Is the purpose
of these associations, however, to con
duct their business In such n way that
the product can be sold f. o. b. ship
ping point instead of by consignment,
and the best organized associations nre
usually able to do this.
The great aiU'antage of such n sys
tem of selling Is that It enables the
brokers in n small city or town to buy
direct from the producer Instead of
through another city broker. It en-

nbies the consumer to obtain fresh
products, as they are shipped direct
from the point of production to the
place of consumption. The plau car
ries other benefits which are of great
moment to the producer. lie is enabled
to sell In carload lots at shipping point,
thus saving to himself the cost of trans
portation, which ranges from 7 to in
per cent of the gross selling price. The
exchange secures a much wider dis
tribution of the crop, with the result
that overstocked markets are much
less likely than under the consignment
system. Transportation companies pro-
vhle better service, and claims are
more promptly settled through the ox
change than In the case of Individuals.
Tills plan enables the producer to be
ids own salesman. It transfers the
distributing point from the city to the
field, where It should be. It brings
ho market to the Held Instead of the
product to die market. The exchange
becomes the farmer's commission house,
and It Is much easier to keep Informed
regarding the transactions of a home
association than of a foreign concern.
