The study also shows that: 1. Freight charges were a relatively small percentage of the total price paid by the purchaser for live stock in both years and were a smal et percentage in 1325 than in 1924. 2. Apparently the principa Ifaetors influencing the seller's net proceeds are the quality of the stock and marketing conditions. j 3.

GARDEN WILL SUPPLY I NEEDED PATENT MEDICINE Raleigh, N". C., April lib?When ' s-'ck, the porper thing to do is to call : a physician and follow his advice !ve:y carefully. But there would be less sickness and disorders if every t family had a supply of fresh vego- i : tables throughout the year. This t i is another argument for the family j garden. "A good garden may he likened to 1 to the family physician says C. R? .Hudson of the farm demonstration , division at State College. "Many people use patent medicines, many of which are only extracts of vegetables and arc generally concoctions . thai arc really good for nothing. Kvi-ii when valuable, liieir prices are exhorhitant and some of them lead to habits worse than the ailment which they are supposed to cure."
