THE NEW GRAIN BILL The Chicago Board of Trade's plea for a permanent injunction restraining, enforcement of the Capper-Tinch-er law regulating trading in grain futures, was resumed at Chicago on Wednesday. The case is being heard by Federal Judge James II. Wllkerson. Sessions were suspended on Monday when Henry S. Robbins, attorney for the Board of Trade, suggested that the district court hearing be dispensed with, and the case sent direct to the United States supreme court In a long distance talk from Washington, Secretary Wallace told District Attorney Clyne that he wished the matter to be threshed out In the court at Chicago, and this Is now being done. It seems to be a moral certainty that if the findings at Chicago are adverse to the Board of Trade tho case will be carried up to the supreme court This was clearly Indicated by the action of the attorney for the board In requesting that the case be sent to the supreme court in the beginning. Mention was made In this column on Monday regarding the proposed merger of the Armour and Morris pack ing interests, if the Federal trade com mission permits. It now develops that this merger would represent assets exceeding $500,000,000. The question for the Federal trade commission to settle Is; Whether such a merger will be -in restraint of trade? Rushing Hogs to Market Including "stale" or leftover hogs there were 63,000 in the pens at Chicago on Tuesday. Of these about 11,000 were left over for Wednesday, to which were added 48,000 fresh receipts for that day, making a supply of 69,000 for Wednesday's market The lower the price the greater the prmuure to unload and the heavier the dafrjr receipts. The average pries at Chicago on Tuesday was $8.20, against $6.70 on the same date in 1921, What has been happening at Chicago has been happening to a greater or lesser degree at other primary points, during the past'few days. Indianapolis end Clncinnod have both felt the Increased pressure to unload hogs. AH facta considered the market has held up pretty well. In the judgment of our feeders, but if a little more "orderly marketing" could have been done, and always done, prices would be higher all 'round. Roosting In Trees The ideal fall weather up to this writing has tempted the chickens to roost outdoors, this being especially true of this year's pullets and cockerels. But the time has come to drive the birds off the fences and trees to their indoor perches. It takes much more feed to keep the flock in good condition if they roost outside in cold weather; it also checks egg production and causes sickness and loss. Birds should not only be forced to roost In their houses, but be kept warm and comfortable Inside in bad weather. They will do better, be more contented and will respond by laying more eggs. Of course scratch feed will be-kept in the litter so the birds get needed ex ercise, and the self feeders will always be supplied with mash.

Much business of Importance will come before the convention during its long session. The legislative committee of the Indiana farm bureau met at Purdue Monday and Tuesday. The conference was held to consider the needs of Purdue and the experiment station. The committee is making investigations la every state department, so as to be able to Inform the farm bureau of recommendations to be made to the stata legislature which convenes in January. Dr. E. C. Elliott,. president of Purdue, and G. L Christie, director of the agricultural experiment station, and J. H. Skinner and A. A. Potter, deans of the university, met with the committee and the advisory board. School Children Need Milk. At the National Dairy Exposition in St PsuL the United States depart ment of agriculture had as a part of Its exhibit Illustrations that showed the value of milk for, both, children and grown-ups. xnat many persons suu fan to recognise tie importance of this feed has bees, shown by surreys which brought oat that from 15 to 25 percent of school children are undernourished. "Even on farms some children suf fer from a lack of sufficient food of the right kind. It hag been found that in many rural communities only about 50 percent of the children get milk every day. In a typical agricul tural county In the middle west it was found by actual count that two out of every five school children did not drink milk daily, and one out of every six was seriously undernourished." In this part of the exhibit the de partment showed how regular weigh ing and measuring of children at school awakens their interest in food habits and health. Everything needed for this sort of work in schools was RED PEPPER HEAT STOPS BACKACHE The heat of red peppers takes the "ouch" from a sore, lame back.

yield of potatoes from home grown seed was 95 bushels per acre, while that from the certified seed, with exactly the same soil conditions, cultiva tion, etx. was 238 bushels, an. increase of 143 bushels per acre. Seventy acres were, planted with the certified seed, which means an increased yield for the county of 10,010 bushels. At $1 per bushel, the prevailing price there, these will bring the farmers $10,010 more for their potato crop than they wouia nave received from home grown seed. The extension department of Perdue was instrumental in getting 100 cars of certified seed brought into the state last spring, and uniformly good results have been obtained.

The. successful feeder Is reaping a handsome profit. There Is a little food for thought In the following facts and figures and possibly they may lead to your hens getting better food. Most hens are capable of laying a large numfcer of eggs if they are cared for properly. The feed man Is primarily concerned with the quality of the feed he sells but It is up to the owner to house and supply the feed properly. Since an egg is 65 percent water It goes without saying that a good supply of drinking water should be avail able at all times. The shell, being of lime, demands that there be plenty of oyster shell or a similar source of lime also available. The hen has within her a very large number of miniture yolks. The feed she gets develops these, along with
WM0JS7
the whites and ehell3. Obviously, If the maximum number of eggs are to be laid there be a feedpreparel which will develop practically the same number of whites as yolk3. Yolks come from the carbohydrates and whites come from the proteins. Therefore, if the feed is largely corn or whole grains there i3 an excess of the carbohydrates. More . yolks can be developed than whites. It is said that the average hen, when she s fed all she will eat will maintain her body and manufacture 3 1-3 yolks out of each pound of carbohydrates contained In the food she consumes and will make 16 2-3 whites for each pound of protein. The following table shows the number of yolks and whites produced by the average hen from 100 pounds of - different kinds of feeds:

The small manufacturer does not have this expense so can sell his feed much cheaper.
