new dresses, new friends and a new 
home, What more do you ask or what 
more can you expect? 
I once knew of a parent who looked 
with disfavor upon the event of his boy 
taking any part in the boys’ and girls’ 
club work. When the initial pictures were 
about to be snapped he boldly stepped 
back out of range. lie was not willing 
to be featured in an undertaking that 
smacked of failure and hinted ridicule. 
Next year, however, when the round-up 
was made and the success of the plan 
and work were assured, he drove 12 miles 
to the local meeting where the awards 
were to he made. When picture-taking 
time approached father hedged his way 
to the front, and was more than anxious 
to be counted in as a contributor to the 
successful demonstration. 
Make the most of this opportunity to 
demonstrate to your parents and friends 
that it dairywomnn is no freak. Rather 
lead your community up and over by 
showing conclusively that where there is 
a will rhere is a way. Your way is one 
way worth while of solving the problem 
of what a woman shall do. Joan of Arc 
was Maid of Orleans. May we not say 
with equal significance that Elizabeth 
Farley was the Dairy Maid of Amherst, 
and that Y. W. It. was made of the same 
kind of mental mettle? f. c. mtnkler.

Countrywide Produce Situation 
Apple and potato yield cut a little— 
NET APPLE LOSS MOSTLY IN NORTH¬ 
WEST—SOME CHANGES IN EASTERN 
CROPS—EASTERN POTATO MARKET OUT¬ 
LOOK FAIlt- 
Tlie tipple crop went behind about a 
million bushels in September, but is still 
larger by one-half than a year ug<>. The 
estimate for the barrel section is about 
1S.000.000 bbls.. and for the box States 
of the West about two-thirds as much, or 
somewhat over 12.000,000 in terms of bar¬ 
rels. The Eastern crop has shifted a 
little during the mouth, more in New York 
and the middle Atlantic section and less 
in Northern New England and parts of 
the Middle West. 
The really important change shown in 
the official reports is a decrease of over a 
million bushels in the commercial crop 
of the Fiir West, with the greater part of 
the loss in Washington State. Dry 
weather and the codling moth have left 
their mark on the box apple crop. Even 
the careful sprayers seemed unable to 
check the worms tin's season, and a wormy 
apple is no apple at all, according to the 
strict packing code of the Northwest. 
Thus far shipments from that section 
have not been very heavy, low prices and 
car shortage tending to prevent. There 
will be plenty of Western apples still, but 
not |he severe competition in quantity 
aud quality that might have occurred. 
The outlook improves for long-keepiug 
Eastern Winter apples. Some dealers 
talk of buying them for an advance, as¬ 
serting that when Fall apples are gone 
and the short season part of the box crop, 
the remaining supply will bo found to be 
not #•> very great after all Whether that 
is so or m>t. such a view on the part of 
buyers would help the market. 
potato crop situation 
The decrease of over 5.000,000 bu. in 
the potato crop is mostly in the East and 
in a few Midwestern States. New York 
and Maine each foil away over a million 
bushels, and Nebraska likewise, but the 
North aud West in general are still going 
strong. 
North Dakota, scarcely considered a 
potato State two or three years ago. this 
season ranks not far below Maine. South 
Dakota and Montana, also new as great 
potato sections, and the Rocky Mountain 
States have all increased their estimated 
crop since last year from 50 to 100 per 
cent, although it should be remembered 
that last year’s crop in the Far West 
probably was underestimated greatly, as 
indicated by the heavy’ shipments which 
came from that section, and the actual 
increase in this season's market supply

Plowing Under Green Cornstalks 
If green sweet cornstalks are plowed 
under for manure, can a prop of corn lie 
planted rhe next year? If not, what crop 
would be suitable, and would plowing rye 
under answer the same purpose as a coat 
of manure? n. j. a. 
We have seen cornstalks plowed under 
in this way. If they are plowed under 
green we should use lime. Corn can be 
planted year after year on the same 
ground so long as the smut disease aud 
the corn worms are uot loo bad. After 
a few years these become so numerous 
or common that it is better to plant 
some other crop for a few years. Green 
rye will n<>t entirely take the place of 
manure, nor will any other green crop. 
It may supply the organic matter and the 
plant food, but it lacks the bacteria which 
are found in the manure, aud which give 
life to (he soil.
