60% of the Apple Crop Never Reaches Market. 

 Are You Wasting Half Your Fruit ? 



Bad selling methods and poor quality are the causes of this enormous 

 waste. The 1914 apple crop was the largest ever produced, 259,000,000 

 bushels, and less than 40 per cent of the crop will be sold. Yet thousands 

 of consumers would like to get good apples. That is why quality and 

 packing are paramount questions discussed in every issue of our journal. 



The Biggest Poultry Profits A re Made In Three Ways : 



1, breeding high layers; 2, hatching baby chicks, and 3, fattening 

 dual-purpose breeds. We sent the most e.xpert poultryman we could 

 find on a long trip through the great poultry states to visit practical 

 plants and discover how the profit-paying plants are run. He got the 

 facts. His observations and advice will appear in a number of special 

 articles. 



Do you know when the market is best for your class of stock ? To the 

 dairyman, hog raiser, horseman, sheepman, feeder and breeder there is 

 no more important question. It will be thoroughly discussed by a com- 

 petent man and illustrated by charts. It may save you SlOO— possibly 

 more. The war made some feeds cheap. Are you using them? Read 

 the opinions of leading breeders on the prospects for the breeds.
