(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) While supply and demand are the principal factoril which determine the market price of a product, there are a number of other factors which may be of considerable Importance to the individual producer or shipper of hay. Size and weight of bale, character of inspection existing at prospective market, grading and the manner of Interpreting the grades are among the more Important of these factors, say marketing specialists of "the bureau of markets, United States Department of Agriculture.

In the unfortunately, this specimen, sternum was missing altogether. The ribs are very Imperfect, short, and little curved. Probably a considerable part of the body basket was cartilaginous, so that it has not been preserved as a fossil. The ribs in this specimen were scattered, and no attept has been made to bring- them back to their proper articulations. They have merely been placed near to their proper location. The extent and limits of the wing membranes as shown on the specimen No pterodactyl of are theoretical. this group has been found In which are preserved. They have been found, Indeed, more or less perfectly preserved, in some of the smaller species from the Solenhofen slate of Ba varia, notably the and the short-taileScaphognathus, etc. Iterodactylus, But these more amfient kinds of flying reptiles are much smaller and more primitive, and so different from the great Pteranodon in the proportions of skull and other parts that they may have been very different in the wings as well. The best evidence for reconstructing the wings is the form and proportion of the bones and the long-taile- d d probable purposes to which they coula be applied. It is difficult to see how a sufficient width could be obtained for the stretched membrane of the wings unless it were extended down along the sides of the hind legs, as Doctor Wiiliston believed, and no! merely along the side of the body, Then 11 as Doctor Seeley supposed. the membrane was stretched on the outer side of each hind leg, It mutt also have been stretched between them and up to the tail, in order to take the strain off the legs. It may also be supposed that the membrane stretched from the neck out on each side over the shoulders as far as the pteroid bone, ns this would have some obvious mechanical advantages. In life all the principal bones of pterodactyls were thin, follow cylinders of an exceptionally hard and flaky quality of bone. Moreover, there are, in some of the bones at least, openings corresponding to those In birds, which serve to allow air to circulate within the hollow cavity of the bone. Soaring Like a Bird. This is not the only point in which pterodactyls resemble birds. The; have also a much higher type of brail than ordinary reptiles, the cerebellum1 is large, and, as in birds, or the optic lobes are widely separated, It is also probable, in the opinion ol some high authorities, that like birds they had a rapid circulation of tht blood and continuously high body temperature, and were far above the reptilian stage in this respect Indeed th high type of brain and the active lift of a flying animal could hardly b maintained save through a high typ of circulation such as mammals and especially birds possess.

Seven-year-ol- VALUE OF DOCKAGE IN WHEAT off-gra- , Dockage found In wheat in some instances is of real vfilue, while in others it not only may have no value but often may contain ingredients that are positively harmful if ground with the wheat, say specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. The value of dockage, therefore, depends on the value of . the material separated from the wheat. Dockage frequently contains quantities of nutritious grain and weed seeds, as flaxseed, wild oats, or other cereal grains. Much of this material can be used to good advantage as' poultry or stock feed. Wild mustard and flaxseed can be removed from the dockage in practically a pure state by the use of special cleaning machinery, such as is sometimes found in terminal elevators and the larger flour mills, but even then the cost of cleaning will be considerable, and when so separated will ordinarily command a fair price. Under the dockage system of the federal standards, the amount of foreign material separated and considered as dockage is deducted from the weight of the wheat purchased and, in any event, does not affect the grade of the clean wheat. This results in a higher grade and the price paid la on the basis of this grade for the dockage-fre-e wheat.

Good reports continue to come into the county agent at Smyth county, Va., from those who have taken adwork vantage of the poultry-cullin- g given by him.
