News Review of Current Events the World Over

Dawes Named Head of Reconstruction Finance Corporation —Laval’s Blow to Reparations Conference —“Alfalfa Bill” in Washington.

By EDWARD INTO the lap of Gen. Charles Gate* Dawes, or rather onto his shoulders, has fallen another big job, and the country seems to feel confident that

this Strong Man of business, finance and diplomacy will be able to handle It competently. He has been appointed by President Hoover as president of the Reconstruction Finance corporation which Is to go to the rescue of banks, railroads and other Interests whose assets and operations have been “frozen" by

Gen. Dawes

(he depression. Two billion dollars supplied by the. government will be at the disposal of the corporation aj»d It Is fondly hoped and expected that thia great piece of machinery will, under the direction of General Dawes, extricate the country from the economic morass. ' « President Hoover In announcing the selection of Dawes added that Eugene Meyer, governor of the federal reserve hoard, would he chairman of the board of the new corporation. In a second statement the President announced that Secretary of State Stimson would replace Dawes as chairman of the American delegation to the disarmament conference in Geneva but would not attend the opening sessions, at which Ambassador Hugh Gibson would be acting chair- ' man. other members ot the delegation sailed for Europe Wednesday, . and the delay In the departure of Mr. Stimson was construed In Washington ns meaning that Mr. Hoover does not expect a great deal from the conference. Os course Mr. Dawes* real gnation as ambassador to Great Britain Was promptly offered and accepted. He said he would*send to London for his family and his trunks and would get busy on the new” job at once. SENATOR SWANSON and Dr. Mary Emma Woolley salted on the liner President Harding and will be joined In Geneva by Ambassadors Gibson and wii «on. who are already in Europe, ami by Norman H Davis, who preceded them on another ship. Our delegates have been instructed not to agree to further reduction of American land forces; As for naval annamenta, American officials see little chance that any other powers wlll .be willing to make arfhament cuts which Would materially affect this nations naval forces. The point where the United States seems most likely to t»e affected is in the air, a field not yet hit by arms reduction or limitation treaties. . Efforts will be made at Geneva to set limitations on both numbeta of military airplanes and horse power. The French government, through Premier; I-aval, has plainly Indicated that Ita stand at the conference in Geneva will be unchanged! It will Inaist on what France considers guarantees of security .before consenting to disarmament.' At the same time Laval, submitting the foreign policy of his new govern--ment to the chamber of deputies, virtually doomed the reparations conference at Lausanne. He declared. in Friince would not give up her right to reparations. adding that - all France could offer was to try to adapt existing International accords to the present crisis. Great Britain thereupon announcer! the conference opening had been postponed, .from January 25 and that further convene- ! tions were In progress. It appeared evident the parley, If held at all. would be only a meeting of experts. Laval previously suggest Hl .that the United States might help matters by agreeing to an extension of the moratorium, but Ambassador Edge by authority of the State department made it clear that this country need not be expected to take any further part In the European diecussirm of Its wnr debts am! reparations problems until It has worked out a solution of its own. «■ ■... ■ CONGRESSMEN and other Inhabitants of the National Capital heard a lot about the liquor issue during the week—rather more than usual. Sena-

tor Royal 8. Copeland of New Y«»rk, who Is a Democrat and a physician, introduced In the senate a bill which would amend the prohibition act to enable patients who need liquor for medicinal purposes to obtain it in any necessary quantities on physicians' prescriptions. It also would enable physicians to

prescribe such liquor without recording In governmental offices the disease from which their patients are suffering. 'The Eighteenth amendment does not limit the medicinal use of liquor," Senator Copeland said. “The national prohibition act and related acts recognise Its use as proper. but they lay down certain conditions with which a physician must comply when he prescribes and they prohibit absolutely the prescribing of Liquor in. excess of certain arbitrarily fixed quantities, for Individual patients, except such as are Inmates of hospitals for inebriates. “The conditions long have offended the professional instincts of the great mass of the medical profession. The Wlckersham commission unanimously recommended that theese grounds -for complaint be remove. 1." The senate manufactures subcommittee continued intermittently its hearings on the Bingham 4 per cent tear blit One of the’interesting wit-

W. PICKARD nesses was David Burnet, commissioner of internal revenue. He declined to predict whether legalization of beer would Increase consumption over preprohibition days, but said beer taxes would create a “substantial increase” In revenues. Representative Dyer of Missouri testified that states refused to enforce the dry law because the people regarded the definition of Intoxicants as unscientific and dishonest. As a result Dyer said, federal ludges have become real police judges. NEWTON D.

George White as Ohio's favorite son. The state's delegates, however, will be “free from any sort of control,” which means they can switch to any other candidate.

Ifhe league went on record as opposing anything that might weaken prohibition—referenda, resubmlssion, state control, modification and beer proposals, ns well as repeal attempts. TWO or three weeks may elapse before Secretary of the Treasury Mellon knows whether the house judiciary coiniulttee favors bls impeachment as demanded by Representative Wright Patman of Texas. The hearings were adjourned Tuesday until the official trans«*ript of the testimony is completed and printed. Just before this Alexander Gregg, counsel for Mr. Mellon, read to the committee a cabled denial from Presklent Olaya, of Columbia that he and Mellon had ever discussed the Barco oil concession. “This is the most damaging evidem e yet Introduced.” declared Representative La Guardia. “Mr. Patman has been working for days here to show us that the oil concession was discussed by Mr. Stimson and President Olaya. Why did you get this cabled denial and why was it sent? Why should. President Olaya show so much solicitude for Mr. Mellon and UH) State department?” Mr. Gregg replied that he was certain no one In the State department as asked for the denial. Mr. Patman read to the committee a list of storks he declared Secretary Mellon had put up as collateral with a Pittsburgh bank for a $60.000.0<X) la>nd issue made by the Gulf Oil corporation. s .

/CONGRESS received a thorough scolding for the way it has been squandering billions of dollars, bringing the nation to the verge of bankruptcy, in a memorial addressed to it by the Federation of American Business, a national organization with headquarters in Chicago. The document was presented to the senate by Senator James E. Watson of Indiana, and he asked that it be read from the desk instead of being merely filed. “The very existence of the nation is at stake and your constituents, alive to your every action In this crisis, will accept no excuses and no extenuations," was the'conclusion of the demand voiced in the memorial for reduction ofc government expenditures and reduction of taxation. ‘The tremendous Increase in the cost of government is the result of three major causes,” the memorial contended. "First, government competition directly or indirectly with the business activities of its citizens, and the absorption by increased taxation of losses thus Incurred y second, new regulatory or social services not contemplated.in our scheme of political administration, but taken on''ln increasing volume in recent years, and. third, independent boards and commissions, under direction of no established executive department and frequently financed with revolving funds that free them of United States treasury supervision. The whole pattern of government is being changed without approval or even discussion by our citizenship.” Next day a representative of industry. '’James A. Emery, counsel for the National Association of Manufacturers, appeared before a house committee to warn memliers that a sure way to delay restoration of the opportunity to work is to divert too great a portion of private funds to public purposes. Public expenditures—national, state, and local—now total some thirteen billion dollars annually, Mr. Emery reminded the congressmen who have before them the task of drawing up the new tax bill with its Inevitably higher rates. Os that huge total. Mr. Etnery pointed out. only ten billion is met by immediate taxation, the remainder being met by continuous borrowing. “Nearly one-fifth of the national Income is taken for public purposes," he explained, “and we thus face a rising ith declining incomes.”

LORD WILLINGDON, viceroy Os India. is not taking half measures in suppressing the Nationalist revolt against British rule. Having jailed Mahatma Gandhi and

most of .his chief lieutenants, he fol* lowed this up by put ting in prison Mrs. Gandhi, the mahatnia's wife, and their youngest son. Mrs. Gandhi, a little woman sixty years old. was given six weeks in jail because* she had undertaken to •carry on her hus-

band’s campaign. She ■ \ asked a longer sentence, promising to resume the independence work as soon as she got out. The judge refusing, she picked up tier Hindu Bible and her spinning wheel and entered her cell. Syed Abdullah Brevll, editor of the Bombay Chronicle, most important Nationalist newspaper in India, was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment at hard labor for ignoring an order requiring him to report daily to the police. G ENERAL HONJO, commanded of the Japanese in Manchuria, thoroughly avenged the recent killing of a number of his soldiers by Chinese troops. He sent out three well equipped expeditions which retaliated by slaying several hundred soldiers and “bandits” in engagements at Yentai, Tungliao and Yingkow. Heavy artillery and bombing planes were freely used by the Japanese with terrible effect. The Japanese plans for establishing an Independent government in Manchuria—dhat is, independent of all but Japan— -went forward with speed. There were renewed reports that Hsuan Tung, former boy emperor, would be set up as ruler of Manchuria. and so the Chinese government issued warrants for his arrest. The new Nanking government seemed to be recovering strength, .and Chiang Kai-shek, former ami Wang Ching-wei, leftist leader, agreed to return from Hankow and cooperate with it. Disturbing reports were received from Fukien province where Ciiihese troops revolted, joined tire Communists and proceeded to set up Communistic governments. DURING the debate In the house on the Agriculture department's $175,000,000 supply bill for the next fiscal year. Representative Wood of Indiana, Republican, made a demand for a reduction in salaries of government employees. Mr. Shannon of Missouri asked whether President Hoover would approve a cut in bls salary and what was the extent of Mr. Hoover’s private fortune. Mr. Wood replied: “He has made a lot of money, but he has given it away. My information, from a reliable source, is that the President today is not worth 81.000,000. I have faith enough to believe that if the salaries of the federal employees are reduced President Hoover will reduce his own salary." DEMOCRATIC primaries in Louisiana were captured by Gov.

FARM POULTRY

MOST VITAL POINT IS PROPER MATING Careful Selection of Male Big Proposition. Correct mating of poultry for greatest profits during the coming year is a difficult problem and one that is usually conducted as a “hit-or-miss" proposition. N. W. williams, poultryman in charge of North Carolina state college flocks, aaya mating poultry is a hard job for the experienced poultryman, and that the Inexperienced man generally gives it no consideration at ait However, it is one of the most important jobs to be undertaken at the beginning of the new poultry year. First, the grower must know what he wants. If he want? egg production, he must mate birds that have been producing eggs. If he wants show birds, he must use those that have the standard conformations. To mate birds for egg production, the poultryman ought to understand what body factors indicate high egg production, says Williams. Select those of standard weight that are vigorous, broad, deep and with large body capacity. Such birds will lay more eggs arid the chicks will be stronger than those from birds which do not have such desirable characteristics. If the hens lack some of these good qualities but are good layers, use * male bird which will correct the deficiency in the chicks. No bird should be used in the breeding pens which has a tendency to be weak constitutionally. Immature Pullets Show Poor Laying Qualities Pullet culling proved its value in a Wyoming country poultry farm demonstration conducted by the county agricultural extension association, D. C. Henderson, poultry extension specialist of the Pennsylvania State college, said. From a flock of 800 white .leghorn pullets a year ago 133 were separated from the others because they were immature. A careful record of the production of the two groups was then kept for five months. In November the cull birds had 6.6 per cent egg production while the properly developed pullets laid at the rate of 46 per cent. In December the percentages were 22 and 51 respectively. In January 24 and 41, In February 34 and 47, and in March 46.5 and 68. Averages for five months are 26.6 and 50 per cent, showing the welldeveloped pullets nearly doubled the production of immature birds. Housing Suggestions It is necessary to comfortably house the Chickens during the winter months in order to make the maximum profits. j. Comfortable housing provides for: 1. Four square feet of floor space for each bird of the heavy breeds and three square feet of floor space for the light breeds. 2. Light in every part of the house. 3. A dry floor all the time. 4. An open front through which sunshine may get into the house. 6. Ventilation system that will furnish fresh air without a draft and will remove the moisture from the Inside of the poultry house. 6. A warm house and the conservation of body heat during the cold months. Brooding Baby Chicks A laying house Is used for brooding baby chicks on the John Schlaff farm. Macomb county, Michigan. Last fall Mr. Schlaff started with 1,000 laying hens in two <Mlchigan shed type houses. By March I the flock had been culled to 600, all were put into one house and the other house, 80 feet long and 20 feet wide, was cleaned, disinfected thoroughly and used for brooding 2.800 chicks. The chicks were kept two weeks in battery brooders, then were put into the laying house. Six electric brooders were hung from the celling of the laying house.—Capper's Farmer. Beets for Hens Beets and other garden vegetables are valuable additions to the ration of hens and may be fed without weighing them out Beets, carrots and cabbages are all good succulent foods, aps pies may also be given in moderation, sweet ones being best. These vegetables are usually fed at noon, giving the flock what it will clean up in an hour or two. Hens accustomed to them, however, will not eat too much If they ar® before the flock through the day. Flock Profits Vary Os 214 Ohio farmers who kept records on the Leghorn flocks daring the past year, sixteen of the group lost money; 08 made from 1 eent to 81 per bird; 101 made from 81 to $2 per bird ; 23 made from 82 to 83 per bird, and eight made more than 83 per' bird. This wide divergence In profits indicates the possibilities when good feed-, Ing, good housing and good management are given the flock, is the assertion made by a writer in the Prairie Farmer. Shell for Layers In some B. Q tests, it has been shown that oyster shell is superior to either clam shell or limestone f n r feeding as shell forming materials to laying hens. The B. a department of agriculture advises the use of clam shell which is cheaper and a local product. The bulk of the oyster shell used in B. (X, is from the United States. The conclusion would be drawn from tests that the kind of shell used has a marked influence on egg production.—Nor* West Farmer.

Corn That Makes Pork Pays Well

North Carolina Specialist Shows the Value of Feeding Grain.

AU surplus corn should be converted into pork. Records kept on 13,788 hogs by country farm agents during the past six years proved that corn sold as pork has returned an average of 62 cents a bushel more than Its local market value. “Had 25 per cent, of the corn crop of the past four years been sold as pork at the current price paid for bogs, it would have returned 822.140.520 more than its market value as corn," declares W._ W. Shay, Wine extension specialist at North Carolina State college. “Again this year, every farm should by all means grow all the pork needed for that farm. Many waste products can be supplemented and used as hog feed, but hogs which are intended for either borne use or market should be limited to the number sufficient to consume the feed available for them. A market hog pays for its teed only when’t is gaining in weight at a substantial rate. When not gaining, the market hog is going into debt for what be eats." Mr. Shay urges every farmer in North Carolina to keep one good brood sow each year for each 150 bushels of prospective surplus corn. Breed this sow as nearly as possible on the first of May and the first of I November. Full feed her pigs a prop- | erly balanced ration from the time they are four weeks of age until they I are sold. Set! them at a weight of | 200 pounds and over during March and April or again in August or Sep- ; tember. The man who can grow corn cheaply and at good average acre yields and will stick to this system year In and year out regardless of the price oP bogs or the ’price of corn will xiake money for himself and his farm, says Mr. Shay. Wisconsin Man Points Out Value of the Silo We could not get along without a ■ilo. We have a large herd of caltle and find that the entire corn plant has a feeding value, but at least one-third of its value is lost unless it is preserved in a silo. Sixty per cent of its feed value is tn the ear. while 40 per cent is-the stalk, and If the com is left standing, almost 55 per cent of the feeding value is lost arid by estimation about 75 per cent of the weight is lost. So it is better to preserve the corn in a silo than to leave it standing and husk it. If the corn Is shocked, the loss “in weight is about 70 per cent and about 40 per cent feeding value. So that proves it is better to preserve the com in a silo than to shock it. A silo preserves com just as fruit jars preserve fruit or vegetables for the family. A silo also can he used for putting up alfalfa, clover, soy beans and cowpeas, but 1 have always had com to put in the silo. I had two nice fields of corn to put in the silo last year, it is nourishing and in winter the cattle relish It. — Dale Rusk, St. Croix County, in Wisconsin Agriculturist Potatoes for Live Stock Second-grade potatoes, very lowprjeed throughout the potato growing areas of Minnesota, may be nsed as a feed for, hogs and also in limited amounts for cattle, sheep, and horses as n substitute for grain, according to E. Morris, extension live stock specialist. University farm. St. Paul. For pigs, the potatoes should he boiled, mixed with the grain and fed With other concentrates. A protein supplement needs to be fed with this j Experiments Indicate that it takes about 420 pounds of potatoes, fed after cooking, to equal 100 pounds of corn or barley. For the best results in swine feeding, the proportion of potatoes tn ! the ration should not be greater than four pounds tn one of i concentrates. Potatoes are worth only about two j thirds as much when fed raw as when cooked. Advises $2 Margin A margin of 82 per hundredweight will allow the cattle feeder a reasonable profit on his feeding operations i at present feed prices, says Prof. H.-J. i Gramllch of the Nebraska College of Agriculture. This would mean that the feeder who purchases his stock at j $6 per hundred should have a selling i price of $8 per hundred when his cattle are, ready for market. The 82 margin applies to cnttle of the better grades. On the lower grades of cattle It is wise to have a wider margin, probably about S 3 per hundred win allow the cattle feeder a profit, tn the oninlon of Professor Gramllch. The foregoing statements were made with present feed prices in mind.—Nebraska Farmer. Alfalfa for Work Horses One can feed a reasonable quality or grade of alfalfa hay to work horses quite successfully. It would be desirable if. you could use only about one feed of alfalfa bay per day and one feft of timothy or prairie hay for the horses. With feed prices as they are, it would take a good quality of com silage to have a feeding value of 84 per ton. You would have to deduct from thia whatever you thought necessary to charge for hauling IL—Exchange. Seeding Grass Orchard grass will do well where the land Is well prepared and has adequate moisture. September or early October is a good time to sow it But, if conditions are not favorable for sowing in the fall, it may be done in February or early March. It will be well to sow ten to fourteen pounds of orchard grass, two or three pounds of blue grass, three pounds of alsike clover, half pound of white clover, and five pounds of lespedeza per acre, says the Southern Agriculturist JBT

DAIRY

BEST TO LET COW FRESHEN IN FALL

Several Excellent Reasons for the Practice.

Usually the cow bred during the latter part of January or in February will freshen in early fall and will produce more butterfat through a twelve-months period than when bred to freshen in the spring. “The cow that freshens in the fall does not suffer from hot weather and files during the period of her heaviest milk flow as does the cow that freshens in the spring.” suggests A. C. Kimrey of the dairy extension office at the North Carolina State college. ‘The rush of the summer work is over in the fail, and the owner has more time to care for the cow during this heavy producing period. Then, too, the prices for butterfat are usually better in winter than in summer. December butterfat often sells for 10 to 12 cents a pound more than May and June butterfat." Mr. Kimrey finds that a majority of the creameries in North Carolina has a surplus of butter during the summer months but a scarcity in winter. This means that much of the ptpduct must be consigned to the large central markets at a sacrifice in price. In winter it is hard to supply the local demand. Since the payments made to dairymen 'for their butterfat are based on the price which the creameries receive for their n|anufactured butter, it seems only wfse to try to sell the most fat when the best prices may be obtained, Mr. Kimrey says. A little more attention by dairymen to the breeding period of their cows w’ould make possible a greater annual income per cow, he suggests. Not Hard to Deal With Feed Shortage Problem Recent feeding inquiries from certain sections of the country indicate a shortage of feed for dairy cattle. Under such conditions as these, owners of dairy cattle are confronted with the problem of buying some l feed or of reducing the herd. They are, as a rule, reluctant to reduce tlie herd. If they can only get the herd through the winter they feel that they can then carry on to better economic advantage. It is not very good business to buy feed, even at low prices, and then turn around and sell it to inherently poor producing cows, says Hoard’s Dairyman. The first step in an intelligent solution of this feed shortage problem is to find out whether one has any inherently poor producers and if so which ones they are. The next step is to actually get these cdfcs off the farm—sell them to the butcher. An empty stall two will make more money than a poor cow or two when one must buy feed. The third step Is to make and feed good rations to the remaining good cows even If some of the feed must be purchased. Butter Consumption Since the educational work of the dairy council has been under way, butter consumption tias steadily increased throughout the United States. At present, government reports of July 1, 1931, based on production and storage holdings, show 24,000.000 pounds more of creamery butter were consumed the first six months of this year than last year. This is three ounces per person throughout the United States. If this increase has been maintained for the last six months of the year, it will be an increase in consumption of 20,000,000 pounds more than the total surplus holdings of 192!), which broke the price of butter 12 cents a pound. Other causes have doubtless helped, but this educational work has been of outstanding at this time.—Hoard’s Dairyman. Keep Fanning Mill Going There is a continual fanning mill action going on in all walks of life blowing out the ineffectual and inefficient Just as you clean the chaff from your seed grain, you take out the cripples from your dairy herd. You must go further, however. There are many cows that look like cows, pretty fair cows, that are fooling you. Only the keeping of individual cow records will show you these cows. They are th ? e “Blue Cows.” If your herd is to be as profitable as it can be they must be found. Not only the fanning mill to weed out the chaff, but the sieve of production records such as are furnished by the Dairy Herd Improvement associations and the statewide cow testing association are necessary.—Minnesota Farm Bulletin. Benefit of Drinking Cups We understand some tests were made in the lowa State College of Agriculture and as a result, cows given free access to drinking cups produced about 6 per cent more milk and about 12 per cent more butterfat than cows turned outside to drink at a trough. As near as could be determined the cows drank about 18 per cent more water from the buckets than they did from outdoor troughs. They drank about ten times every .24 hours.—American Agriculturist. Real Producer A grade cow of Holstein-Short-Horit Jersey blood owned by Jay R. Faunce and Son of Lenawee county produced in her twentieth year 11,622 pounds of milk and 531.4 pounds of butterfat In two and one-half years gave a total of 1153.8 pounds of butterfat from a single freshening. This cow has been eating silage for 19 years. Do we have any records of old cows in Michigan that approximates this productions? the Michigan Farmer asks.
