Paying in Dresden China
Little pieces ' of red-brown china
bearing the usual Dresden mark are
being passed from hand to hund In
Saxony It is not that people are bar-

china cupboards nor are they making
each other presents of the delicate
porcelain for which the mark of Dres-
den has been noted
A new coinage In porcelain hns been
put into circulation to supersede small
paper money and one of its valuable
assets is the fact that it can be
washed so no one need complain of
dirty money The little red-brown
discs have met with a hearty welcome
and the factory of Meissen hns never

COMMUNITY HAULING CONSERVES
FARM LABOR AT BUSY SEASONS
Autotruck Delivers farmers' Produce
(Prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture)
“I’d almost be money ahead if 1
dumped this milk into the brook this
morning instead Of carrying it to tlie
creamery With the best horse In the
barn it's a two-hour Job to carry 800
pounds of milk three miles and It has
to be done every day Those straw-
berries simply must be picked this
forenoon ton Ealn last night and
sunshine today all the berries not in
the cooling' room by noon will be
spoiled”
This farmer had encountered one of
the periods fn his farm work when tlie
proprietor’s presence Is desperately
needed in two places at the same time
Turning to save ft profit on his dairy
he was likely to lose one on his straw-
berry crop If he saved tlie berries he
lost tlie milk for milk and strawber-
ries wait for no man
Starts on the Trip '
“Well I’ve got the milk ready to go
but I haven’t picked the berries Here
goes for the milk" : -Two
minutes later he guided old
Jim and tlie buckboard around the
maple on the corner and urged the
horse Into his best gait when they
reached the mnin road Every minute
was valuable this morning A half
mile from home a forewheel began to
give off slight complaining sounds
“A dry axle” groaned the farmer
“I’ll have to stop at Yelp's and grease
the wheels" ‘
When he renched Yelp’s farm two
more of the buckbonrd’s wheels were
squealing wildly ’
“Can I borrow your wagon wrench
jack and some axle grease?” he called
catching sight of his neighbor oddly
muffled In gauze and gloves under a
tree In the orchard
“Sure!' Help yourself” came the
hearty reply "I’d find the things for
you myself but I’m so busy I can’t
spare a minute I’m trying to hive
some of my bees that swarmed this
morning and I've got a dozen crates of
lettuce all packed that must go on the
noon train"
- “There's another man In the same
fix” thought Stevens as he worked
“He's got to stop profitable work to
haul stufT into town Probably Hamil-
ton and Grosner and Phillips and Jones
are no better off either f can’t af-
ford a truck to haul Just my own prod-
uce but If those fellows would make
It worth my while to buy a truck and
carry their stuff to market too there
ought to be a way out of this for all of
us” 1
He thought the matter out to a con-
elusion and that evening drove nround
to his neighbors with his proposition
He called only at the farms that lay
between bis own place and the village
and to their owners he made a propo-
sition that ran something like this
“How much would It be worth to you
to have your milk and farm produco
carried into town for you every day?
There are days when you have to make
a trip that takes an hour ormiore of
your time at the busiest season of the
year Just to haul your milk to the
creamery and there are other times
wbeu you’ll have a load of tilings that
you want to send Suppose I buy a
light truck — would you be willing to
pay me enough for hauling your prod-
duce to make It worth my while?”
“Yes we’d be willing to do that
providing your charges aren’t too steep
How would you regulate the prices?”
“I’ve been consulting a bulletin on
this subject issued by the United
States Department of Agriculture
Maryland farmers have already put
an idea like this Into execution ac-
cording to the department’s represen-
tatives They own and operate a
truck on co-operative basis and the
rate Is 15 cents' per hundredweight for
first-class goods I believe I can haul
your produce with a light truck for
20 cents a hundred pounds during the
summer months The co-operative
idea inaryland is not managed to
secure a profit but I shall have to
make a profit to pay for the time I
am taking from my own work”
“How will we manage when we want
things brought out from town?”
Telephone your orders and have
tba merchants deliver the goods at
e creamery wteirolcan plckthem
an Collect Purchases at City Statoo
all up at once and Til bring them out
to you"
1 The scheme was adopted and these
farmers found the solution to their
hauling problems
Where there are only a few farmers
and the route Is short It Is sometimes
possible to organize motor-truck serv-
ice In this way If a farmer can be
found who Is willing to undertake the
work In most cases however the
volume of business Increases so rap-
idly that It cannot be handled by one
truck or one man and when this stage
Is- reached a co-operative motor-truck
association Is the best solution
Forming an Association
Such np association enn be organized
ns a regular stock company Bulletin
541 United States Department of Ag-
riculture which may be had on re-
quest contains Information regarding
the by-laws under which a co-operative
association should be organized
and farmers’ bulletin 1032 tells how tho
motor-truck route ought to be oper-
ated how prices 'are fixed and the
running expenses met
In the hands of the scrupulous In-
dividual' or as a co-operative enter-
prise the motor-truck route will offer
quick economical transportation to
those farmers who must reach the mar-
ket every duy or two with small loads
of milk or farm produce and whose
business does not warrant them In
purchasing a truck solely for their
own use
EXTERMINATING RATS
THROUGHOUT COUNTRY
Work Is Now Being Carried on in
Vigorous Manner
County Agricultural Demonstrators
and Hodent Control Experta Mak-
ing Determined Efforts to
Destroy Little Pests
(Prepared by the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture)
According to reports to the United
States Department of Agriculture
rut extermination work throughout
the country is being carried forward
vigorously under the combined ef-
forts of the county agricultural dem-
onstrators sent out by the states re-
lations service and the rodent control
experts representing the bureau of bio-
logical survey
At Blackstone Va the home demon-
stration agent and tlie biological sur-
vey representative Joined in a rut
campaign which promised to send
12000 rodents Into tlie rat hereafter
When the final count of rat tails
was taken It was found that 80000
of the pests had been killed in the
one town
At Fargo N D the citizens were
annoyed by a heavy infestation of
rats A ’ bureau representative en-
listed the co-operation of the city com-
mission the commercial - club the
health department the boy scouts
women’s clubs and other organiza-
tions and conducted a very success-
ful campaign against the pest In this
instance the poison barium carbonate
was purchased in quantities and used
as a destructive agent with excellent
results
A statewide' rat eradication cam-
paign In Texas will soon be launched
against ' rats The bureau ' of bio-
logical survey has beeil asked to de-
tail a specialist to direct the operation
