Fill Your Silo 
From Fewer Acres 
The one practical remedy for the high cost of labor 
is to make every acre produce more — a bigger yield of 
corn per acre means lower cost per ton of silage. Whether 
you apply manure or not, your corn needs available plant 
food —for a quick start — for producing more and better 
ears to give the silage greater feeding value—and for mak¬ 
ing big heavy corn, that requires fewer acres to fill the silo. 
A-A-C- Fertilizers 
Make This Possible 
They supply the necessary available plantfood — ammonia for 
a quick start, potash to make stout, heavy stalks and big grain, and 
phosphoric acid to fill out the grain, reduce the number of barren 
stalks and bring the crop to maturity ahead of frost. 
Our Agricultural Service Bureau has been making 
farm tests with fertilizer for many years, to determine 
the best fertilizers for various crops under different con¬ 
ditions of soil and climate. The Bureau issues bulletins 
dealing with the culture of important crops, the use of 
lime and fertilizer. The Bureau also tests soils as to 
their need of lime, and gives advice on agricultural 
matters. This Service is free. Dr. H. J. Wheeler, 
formerly Director of the Rhode Island Agricultural 
Experiment Station, is in personal charge of the Bureau.

Fertilizer.’’ Our nearest office will be glad to send it free.

The following prices prevail in the 
Wyoming Valley towns of Luzerne Coun¬ 
ty: Butter, 70c per lb., retail; eggs, 75c 
per doz., retail; pork, dressed, by the 
hog, 20c per lb; chickens, live, 32c to 36c 
per lb., retail; apples, $2 to $3 per bu.; 
potatoes, $1.60 per bu.; hay, about $35 
per ton. The corn and potato crops were 
above the average, and of good quality. 
Hay was about an average crop. There 
was a good yield of wheat, while rye and 
oats did not do so well. Apples and 
other fruits were a short crop, due to the 
severe freeze last April. Ilogs and poul¬ 
try are being raised more extensively. 
The situation at present is quite satisfac¬ 
tory. from a money-making standpoint, 
though labor is scarce and high-priced; 
but we are all wondering “where we will 
be at” when the present abnormal war 
conditions cease to exist. c. u. w. 
Luzerne Co., Pa. 
Potatoes, $1.25 per bu.; oats. $1; corn, 
$1: wheat, $2; hay, $35 per ton ; straw. 
$20; eggs, 75c per doz.; butter, 70c per 
lb. Farm conditions poor, but on the 
improve. I hear of eight or 10 carloads 
of potatoes being shipped in this commu¬ 
nity. The general business outlook is 
favorable for the farmer in the commu¬ 
nity. w. k. l.

Sugar very scarce, and when you can buy,

9, 10, 15 and 22c loaf, retail. w. J. w.

This has been a fairly good year for 
farmers. Most crops were fairly good, 
excepting apples, which were almost an 
entire failure; oats were rather light. 
The majority of farmers in this vicinity 
are either producing milk or are market 
gardeners; some specialize in cabbage, 
some cabbage and potatoes; a few do gen¬ 
eral farming. As we are only five miles 
from the business part of the city, or 2 x /£ 
miles from the suburbs, and Johnstown is 
one of the finest markets in Western 
Pennsylvania, no trouble to sell all we 
raise. Milk, wholesale, per gal., 36c, de¬ 
livered to dealer; retail. 16c per qt. But¬ 
ter, SOc per lb.; eggs, 75c per doz. Po¬ 
tatoes, $2 per bu.; apples, poor stock, 
$2.75 per bu, or 3 lbs. for 25c; onions, $2 
per bu. Poultry, live. 35c per lb. Veal 
calves, 20c per lb., live. Grade milch 
cows, $100 up; registered Ilolsteins, $200 
up. Horses cheap ; good farm horses can 
be bought for $100. Oats, 90c per bu.; 
corn, $1.70; hay, $35 per ton; straw, $8. 
Everything the farmer has to buy is so 
high that at the end of the year there is 
very little profit left, so the young men 
are leaving the farm and are going into 
the city and into other kinds of business 
because they can make more money there 
and have shorter hours. I cannot see 
much encouragement for the older farm¬ 
ers ; they cannot pay 40c per hour for 
labor, and that is what they are ask¬ 
ing. with board. Feeds seem* to be go¬ 
ing lip all the time. I paid for middlings 
yesterday $3.45 per cwt.; chop. $3 35; 
bran, $3; so it seems to me the old folks 
will have to do what they can until con¬ 
ditions change. j. M. Y. 
Cambria Co., Pa. 
The leading crops here are hay, wheat, 
oats, corn and some apples; there is also 
some trucking. Hay was $28 a ton, but 
now is only $24. Wheat. $2.20 per bu., 
and dealers are glad to get it. Oats, 85 
to 90c per bu. There does not seem to be 
much corn sold yet; it is main crop. Last 
Summer it was as high as $2.10 at the 
crib. Apples sold out of the orchard for 
$1 per bu. without being sorted. The 
crops at present are in good condition, 
and quantity is fully as much as usual, 
or a little more. Farm help seems to be 
more plentiful than a few months ago. 
Hunterdon Co., N. J. s. M. w. 
I have only 10 acres, and specialize in 
poultry, together with fruit and some 
truck and farm crops. I received 42 to 
50c per lb. for my Leghorn broilers, and 
45 to 50c for roasting chickens, 40c for 
heavy fowls, and 35c for Leghorns. Pul¬ 
lets about ready to lay, $3 each. Eggs 
sold well, especially during the Summer 
months, ranging from 65c in July to 05c 
and $1 now. While these prices are high, 
they are somewhat less in comparison to 
cost of production than they were five 
years ago. My tomatoes sold on the New 
York market for $1 to $3.25 per 12-qt. 
crate. I sold my potatoes locally, $5.25 
per bhl. This was 25 to SOc more than 
the average market price. H. L. R.
