FLESHBRfON, Insurance Is Good, But Insurance will, in a measure, repay you for loss from fire due to lightning. But it will not prevent the fire. It takes the DODD System of Lightning Pro- tection to do that. In the past thirty years over 300,000 buildings have been rodded by the DODD System and in not a single instance is there a record of the DODD System properly installed, having fail- ed to prevent damage by lightning. The fact that you haven't yet suffered loss by lightning only means that you are fortunate, not that you arc proof against it. Ash us today what it will cost you to have DODD protection* S.

(traded Fruits or Vegetables Attract U hilt- Mixed i.i..;!. K.-p.-l The Kntlsttotl CiiMsMincr Will i mm- Again Quality I'ays. (Contributed by Ontario Depnrtment ol Agriculture, Toronto.) Will th"e consumer pay for Quality? Yi s, and liberally If he understands what standardization means. Criti- cism is frequently directed at the farmer producer for the lack, of attention given to grading and pack- ing of the product of his farm. Fruits in different stages of rlpenosn, differ- ent sizes, shapes and colors are fre- quently seen in the same package. Chickens of various breeds,, sizes, types and degree of plumpness are jumbled together in the same crate and form a marked contrast when placed beside a crate containing birds of the same sex, size, plumpness and color. To the well ordered mind uni- formity always appeals, while mix- tures and jumbles repel as so much junk. If a child goes into a candy store it will soon learn that mix- tures arc sold at a lower figure than standard confections. And so it goes through life a mental attitude is developed by the great majority of coiiMiiuers to regard those products that are not .standardized us being less attractive and having a lower value. The percentage of particular consumers has increased much fast- ter than the percentage of agricul- tural producers who standardize their products. In the old days the wormy apple, the misshapen potato and the old hen may not have lost their attractiveness, but times have changed, more people have more money to spend on foods than ever before. With the increase of the family Income or wealth during the past twenty years the attitude of the Vounger generation towards the foods that they eat has changed very considerably. If we refer to the good old days when oatmeal was the Standard breakfast food and citrus fruits were only seen at Christmas time, we will realize what present day attitude toward quality in food- stuffs means when compared with the past. With this advance in tastes for foods which may be largely flavor and of little value when considered from the standpoint of nourishment, the demands for foods that appeal to the eye and to the sense of taste have increased very greatly during the past live years. , People Will I'ay for Quality. Standardization of food products vill put the rosy cheeked, clean, uni- form, Bound apples in one basket and It will put the wormy, scabby, mis- Bliapen product in another. People arc willing to pay for quality pro- viding they have a guarantee that they will be handed a quality pro- duct in exchange for their money, flow many householders have had I the all too frequent experience of I , ; i in:- one-third of their purchase in I the garbage can? Inferior materials j lihould be directed Into channels I wluve they would be used to the best advantage instead of being a mill- stone or dead weisht in occupying space, increasing carrying costs in transportation and reducing tne at- tractiveness of the superior portion of the commodity. In seasons of food shortage mixed and lower grades of food products will usually sell and show a margin of prollt, but whi-ii food products are abundant the more attractive grades sell most readily and create a want for morn high-clans produce, which demand frequently must be tilled from the lower grade. This substi- tution of a low grade for :; high or standard product kills the incentive to buy. Stung once, the particular purchaser consumer will hesitate to buy. They look, but do not buy. (trading lleut for IVi islmlilc Foods. The amount of perishable food In the fruit, vegetable and poultry pro- duct classes that is now consumed, while very large, is not H great as It would be under standardization. KxperlfiircH with mixed grades, poor quality and poor packing leave an impression on the mind of the aver- iiKt- purchaser that will take Home time to erase. When the perishable food product of Ontario is standard- ized anil marketed in a way that will command the confidence of the con- suming public an Increased demand Is hound to follow. The Satisfied r<>n .I.IIKT IN ail \-.-,. i. If all the food produce offered for sale could he standardized and mar- keted In such a way as to develop the market for future crops much benefit would result. Satisfied con- sumers of this year's product will look to the same source again next year. Consumers know or should know what they want, and If given a standardized packet of food pro- duct in exchange for their money will, if suited, go on patronizing standard products. Salesmanship has been too frequently used to sell a consumer something that he did not want, material sold with the one Idea of getting rid of It and no thought of the future. If the farm end of the food pro- ducts Industry Is to develop to the fullness It merits, all produce grown for sale will have to be marketed through co-oporatl-ve marketing or- ganizations, ^tajidard, honesty pre- pared, packed and delivered produce is the only course to pursue In de- veloping a worthwhile market for form produce In our Canadian cities or abroad. Any food producing com- munity that is without a co-operative marketing organization should con- sider the establishment of such. Those districts that have such should consider expansion by amalgamating with similar organizations. Stan- dardized products, common honesty, any industry will make for success in producing and disposing of farm products. L. Stevenson. Secretary, Deoartuient of Asrlculture, Toronto. Small Ads.
