News Review of Current Events the World Over Roosevelt Defeats Smith in New Hampshire Primaries — Billion Dollar Tax Bill L nder Dehate in the House. By EDWARD W. PICKARD

FIRST blood in the contest between Franklin D. Rooaevelt and Alfred E. Smith for the Democratic nomination for President goes to the governor

of New York, The opening round of the battle was provided by the New Hampshire preferential print ari es, and Mr. Roosevelt captured the Granite State’s eight delegates for his forces in the national convention. Unofficial returns showed the Roosevelt pl edged candidates Mere elected by a margin of approxi-

It wn« referred to the Juili ciary committee. I The proposed amend ment calls for an ad dition to the existing

Fifth amendment. providing that ‘‘ln ‘ time of war congress may regulate or provide for the regulation of the ; prices, rant, or compensation to he exacted or paid by any person in respect of the sale, rent; or u-e of any real or personal property. tangible or In tangible, without regard to any limitation contained in this .article or any other article of the Constitution.” Should Corporations or persons succeed in evading such a price fixing regulation, the commission suggests a further check on profits by recommending a N per cent tax on alt Income in time of war in excess of the average income of the preceding three years. In its report to Mr. Hoover the com mission recommended, pending adoption of the amendment,, that in war time the President be empowered to compel acceptance of war orders, and that in pence time the War and Navy departments be given extended power* to present profiteering In national de fem*. Representative Ross A. Collins of Mississippi. Democrat, objected to * the last provision and submitted a minority report recommending that administrative matters be left entirely In the hands of civilians. WHEN the new tax bill designed to raise KI.IOO.tMMXOOd in increased revenues had been presented to the house, several complications arose that promised considerable debate. Three Democratic members of the ways and means committee submitted a minority report urging that about one-third of /he sum be obtained by legalising and

taxing 2.75 per cent beer.- These con-, gressmen were T. H. Cullen and C. D. Sullivan of New York, and J. \V, McCormack of'Massachusetts. They said they failed to. understand a i»oint of view which complacently accepts the taxation of illegal brewing ami wine making through the levies proposed in the present bill on malt sirup. Wort, and grape concentrate, yet refuses to agree with a legal tax on legally made beer. Restoration of the brewing industry. they argued further, would put thousands of jobless back- to work. Representative J. W. Martin. Jr.'. of Massachusetts, a Republican, presented strong objections to the proposed import levy on gasoline and oil, andhe indicated that his opposition to this feature was. shared by many representatives from states along the Atlantic seaboard. X I/ITH only thirteen opposing votes v v the house passed the La (Suardla anti-injunction bill after seven hours of debate in which but two men spoke against the measure. The La. Guardia bill differed in minor particulars from the Norris bill passed by the senate, so the legislation went to conference. When it becomes law the “yellow dog” contracts which bind workers not to organize will no longer be recognized and federal judges will be limited stringently in their jtowers to quiet labor disputes by injunction. Abo v e these ma ndat es the act decla res the policy of the nation is to favor labor's right to «rganize and- bargain collectively.

Meanwhile, it was reported, large numbers of Chinese soldiers were being added to General Tsai's force-s. and in consequence General Shira ka wa. J a pnne<e coniniHnder. issued a warning that he would reopen hostilities if the Chinese attempted to enter the 40 mile line held by the Japanese. . As was foreseen, the smaller powers in the League of Nations assembly tried to force the league to take drastic action against Japan, and were blocked by the great powers, which would be the ones directly affected by such a course. For them Sir John Sinwn, British foreign secretary, proposed the league should Again remind Japan of her treaty and covenant obligations, restating Secretary Stimson's declaration that advantages gained by force cannot he recognized: should take the I stand that Shanghai will be cared for f by the great powers. and that the Man < ' tinati problem should be -helved sor 1 the- present.

The marriage was not a surprise, for their friends had for several years suspected it would come about. However, last March on her, fifty-first birthday. Mrs. McCormick told reporters that the rumor that she and Mr. Simms were to marry was “screamingly funny." The bride is a daughter of Mark Hanna. and“ widow of Senator Medill McCormick of Chicago.

SHOW WHY IT PAYS TO KEEP RECORDS Consensus of Opinion From New York Dairymen. Nearly two-thirds of the 300 dairy record club members In 20 central New York counties report that they r have 1,102 rows and that they have culled IGI poor milkers from their •herds. Many'say that they are waiting until the herd has completed a year’s records before culling in earnest. " Five dairymen admit that they own scrub buMs. 16 have grades, and 106 have nurebred sires; 85 of the sires are rngjsterpd. The, average age of the hulls is about two years and two months. Forty-seven dairymen expect to buy a herd sire within a. year and 50 wish inform’ation about better bulls. The dairymen report 031 heifers more than a year old and 470 calves being raised. Only 1.5 expect to have calves for juilq but 66 are interested in buying good calves. About 170 dairymen say record keeping has helped them to fi-ed cows according to the amount of milk and test; 87 say records help in selling surplus stock; and about 150 say records help in choosing calves to raise. In using iow-test milk for feeding calves, and in encouraging belter care and management. Ventilation of Stable - Matter of Importance A row breathes out about 5*4 quarts of water each 24 hours, and a herd of 20 cows would breathe out 110 quarts, or 27*4 gallons of water in 24 hours, according to Prof. A. M. Goodman of the agricultural engineering department at Cornell university. Where inost <>f the stock Is kept, and where the walls are well insulated, the heat from th? animals keeps the stable walls and ceiling warm and no moisture condenses. However, in that part of tlje jstahle where little animal heat is given off, as in box stalls and calf pens, or where heat escapes readily, ns through bare mow floors or single boarded or concrete walls, the air is chilled and deposits its moistures. One rouse 'for unnecessary moisture is open hay The w'arm. moist, light air rises up these chutes and if the loft siding is tight, this air condenses on the siding and on the under side of the roof. What is the effect of all this moisture? It causes soggy, mouldy, decaying Uinbers, warped ceiling and siding, swollen and sticking doors and window sash, and a miserable place in which to work and keep live stick. The condition of these damp, unhealthy stables can be entirely corrected by proper ventilation.—Michigan Farmer. In 100 Pounds of Milk One hundred pounds of 4 per cent milk will make 465» quarts of market milk, or 45 14-ounce cans of sweetened condensed milk, or 45 16 ounce cans of evaporated milk, or 12.5 pounds of whole milk powder. It will make 4.8 pounds of butter, leaving 80 pourids of skim milk and 15 pounds of buttermilk. These latter by-products may be converted into 12 pounds of cottage cheese, or 2.7 pounds casein, or d.B pounds skim mITk powder. One hundred pounds of whole milk will also produce 11.5 pounds Camembert cheesje. or 11 pounds of Cheddar cheese, or 8.5 pounds of Swiss cheese and) .6 pounds of whey bnt.ter, together Hath 88 pounds of whey.—J. H. FraSndsen. Massachusetts State Colleg«f, Sugar Beets iti Ration Sugar beets when sliced, as is done with other root crops, make a most excellent feed for dairy rows when fed to (supplement hay. and grain. They have a ‘cooling” effect on the digestive organs and consequently help to prevent digestive troubles when cows are being fed a high concentrate ration. If fe<l in too large quantities, some scouring may result., due to the high sugar content of the sugar beets. If f«! at the rate of X 5 or 40 pounds n day. no ill results will occur. It is not fiecessary to cook them. - We have fed large quantities of sugar beets and no sore mouths have resulted.—E V. Ellington, W, S. C., In the Idaho Farmer.

DAIRY FACTS Jerseys and Guernseys mature somewhat earlier than do Holsteina. Ayrshire* and Brown Swiss. The best age for heifers to have their first calves Is from twenty-four to thirty months. Granted that It costs more to raise a cow than to buy one. The additional coat may be cheap insurance against the Introduction of disease Into the herd. • • • In September. 1931, 100 pounds of butterfat would buy more pounds of corn, oats or bran, than at any other time since 1921, says W. L. Cavert. extension economist. Minnesota University farm. At the same time, 100 pounds of butterfat would buy more oilmeal than for a longer period. •• • ' M. M. Taylor of Lyons, the farm agent of Rice county, Kansas, believes that on a dairy farm, “a good tank heater will more than pay for itself during one cold winter." * • • Members of 60 Keystone dairy herd improvement associations sold 289 "•boarteaiFMßS'ws found unprofitable In tests applied during November. C. R. Gearhart, of the Pennsylvania State college dairy extension service, reports. Further improvement was effected by the purchase of 23 sires.

Use Sweet Clover -j to Improve Soil It Also Provides Nutritious Pasture—Live Stock Take to It. Sweet clover Is an excellent soil-lm- | proving crop, probably the best when stands are secured. However, it is necessary to lime average lands before seeding sweet clover, says writer in the Southern Agriculturist. If it is practical to lime, the land. 1 think you would make no mistake in seeding ! it to sweet clover next spring. If you I sow the unhullefl shed, you could sow ; it in February; while if you sow hulled seed, you hail, probably better not sow until the tenth or fifteenth of March. While live stock do not like sweet clover at first, when confined on it they soon acquire a taste for it and make good use of the crop. It makes a nutritious pasture. Even if you sow sweet clover on the land, it would i be very well to sow three to five i pounds of lespedeza to the acre also, to fill in any gaps that there may be. , Lespedeza is an excellent soil Im- i proving crop, although it does not improve soif as rapidly as does sweet -clover. It will not be necessary to lime for lespedza. Just sow it liglitly frozen ground or a freshly'prepared. compacted ground about the middle of March. If sowing for a full stand, you had better use 15 to 20 pounds of seed per acre, although six pounds will give a fair stand the second year. If you sow unhulled sweet clover seed, sow 20 to 25 pounds to the acre: if you s<'w hulled sweet clovet seed. ! 10 to 12 pounds to the acre should be sown. Insect Pests Checked . I r . by Plowing in Winter Recent investigations on soil erosion show the enormous losses farmers suf- | fer from this cause. Every time'you have a heavy ruin and your small creeks are filled with muddy water, yoti are sending S some of the cream of your farm on its way to help dbg up the Gulf of Mexico. With this in mind, therefore, one must consider well any recommendations that are made relative to the plowing of land during the winter months. And yet. if one w ill carefully guard against undue losses from soil erosion, winter plowing can be used as one of the most effective practical controls for various soil-inhabiting; insect pests. This is especitdly true of the various pests that normally build up their populations in sod land and then tilrn to cultivated crops planted on such ground the following summer. Cutworms, sod webworms. root lice, grasshoppers, chinch bugs. and. to a less extent, grubworms and wireworriis and many others are more or less effectively checked by winter plowing. Many are destroyed outright and more are ex(>osed to the elements and to their enemies. Wherever'h is safe to do so. sod land that is to be used the following year for corn should be plowed In the late fall or at favorable times during the winter months. However, it is usually not safe to plow sloping lapd and fields which naturally erode badly during the winter.—Missouri Farmer, Cornstalk Poisoning Cornstalk diseases, which in some seasons causes heavy losses Iti cattle and horses that pasture cornstalks, is a difficult disease to contend with, states Dr. G. S. Weaver, veterinarian at South Dakota State college. The cause of the disease is not. known. The most reasonable opinion is that it IS due to some kind of poisoning, either prussic, acid or potassium nitrate or both. Animals heconie nervous. A sort of Intoxication takes place, the animal becomes wCak and wabbly, some tveing so crazed that they have a tendency to fight anyone giving' them attention. Treatment of sick an-, imals is ineffective and the oqly absolute preventative is to keep cattle out of the stalk fields. Some years there is little trouble from this disease, and most fanners take a chance oji getting the feed from the fields. If poisoning occurs it probably will be wise to abandon the stalks so far as feeding is concerned.—Prairie Farmer. Watch Horses’ Teeth As the idle horse lives largely on -<fry rtfughage. the teeth should be inspected occasionally, tn the horse the upper Jaw is slightly wider than the lower Jaw so that the teeth are not exactly opposite. The wear Is not equally distributed and sharp edges are often left on the inside of the lower molars and on the outside of the uppers which may cut the tongue or cheeks. When the horse eats, the food irritates the sores and he may not feed well. These sharp edges should be rasped down with a guarded rasp as often as necessary to keep the teeth in proper shape-—American Agriculturist. Pruning, Plain Problem One who would prune successfully should have an ideal shape in mind and ever strive to attain it. Enough lateral branches should be removed from the central leader to permit sun- j light to get at the center or the tree. ' Fruit wil Itben be evenly distributed over the tree. A little pruning done , each year makes a better shape possi- j ble; besides; shock and injury to the ; tree caused by heavy pruning after a . year or two of neglect is avoided. — Missouri Farmer. Mercury Dust Paid Big It paid Clifford O’Neil. Eaton conn ty. Michigan, to treat his seed barley with a mercury dust compound, according to Capper’s Farmer. From nine acres sown with treated seed he harvested 350 bushels, an average of 38.9 bushels an acre. On the other half acre, seed for which whs not treated, the yield was ten bushels, or 20 bnshels an acre. The untreated plot suffered a severe attack of seeding blight which reduced the yield 18.9 bushels an acre. n

FEED FOR POULTRY IN WINTER MONTHS Laying Ration Proved Good by Experience. What are the best methods of handling the farm flock ol laying hens during the winter? Suggestions are given by O. C. Ufford, extension poultryman at the Colorado Agricultural college, as follows : Water is cheap and a very necessary food. Keep the laying flock always supplied with an abundance of clean water. A good laying ration may Include a scratch feed mixture of 40 pounds of cracked or shelled corn to 60 pounds of wheat. Experience has shown that the following approximate number of pounds of grain should be fed per 100 hens daily during the different winter months: Heavy breeds, 13 pounds in November, 14 in December, 15. In January. 16 in February, 14 in March and 13 In April; light breeds, 12 pounds in November, 12 in December. 12 in January, 12 in February, 13 in March and 13 in April. Keep the laying mash before the hens all the time in non-waste hoppers. As green feed, the following may be used: Cabbage when the price will permit, alfalfa, beets, carrots, etc. Keep a box of gravel in the laying house In winter time. Lime is furnished in the form of oyster shell or calcite. Feed one-third of the grain in the morning and two-thirds in the evening, in straw litter at least an hour before dusk. Fill the mash hoppers with fresh mash in the morning, if needed. Regularity of, feeding and care are important* for securing the best results. ' ’ Over-Early Production of Eggs Not Advisable Pullets should he full grown and well up to standard weight before they begin laying, advises Miss Cora Cooke, poultry specialist of the Minnesota ag rieuitural extension division University farm. Egg laying is a heavy strain. Miss Cooke explains, and if the pullets begin laying before they reach the proper maturity ahd condi tion. it is a cinch they will not hold out long and the eggs will be under sized.. Pullets that attain full weight before they begin to lay will produce bigger eggs from the start a nr. will not be so likely to molt in the fall or early winter. Pullets should be in good flesh When they start laying. Any that are even slightly-thin are likely to lay for only a short time. Those of the yellow skinned breeds, sand this includes all except Orpingtons, should have beaks and shanks that are a deep orange when laying commences. If pullets showq signs of laying too early they may be held back by g\yitig them lots of scratch feed. Miss <’A>ke says. As summer advances, scratch feed should be steadily Increated and ’ when pullets go into laying quarters they should be eating about twice as much scratch as mash. Good fleshing will be promoted if the scratch feed consists of at least one-third yellow corn. Cull Out Poor Pullets Some interesting figures have beet, secured from a large number 'of Rhode Island flocks. Nearly W.tMW birds returned between March 1 and September 30 a profit of $1.91 over feet! costs in the case of pullets and $1.64 s over feed costs for the hens. The average egg production was 1U0.9eggs for pullets and SM.3 eggs, for hens for the seven months. One lesson learned was the fmpor tance of culling out pullets that do nor" pay their way A suggestion here is that these nonproducers be culled out when the pullet flock has reaihed about 2 per cent In egg production At that time those that are unduly slow in maturing can be easily identified Those that are not producing can be removed to another pen. fed stimulating ration, and then If they do not respond can be disposed of as unproflt able. Poultry Notes A damp house is the cause of many poultry troubles. • • • Poultrymen must learn to be good feeders. Anticipate the needs of fowls and feed accordingly. The poultry ration should contain all the elements required In body maintenance and the manufacture of eggs. • • • It Is not advisable to hold bggs for hatching purposes more than ten days before putting them in the incubator. In 92 New York state poultry flocks the average mortality was 23 per cent. Flock depreciation is the third great est expense in producing eggs, and dead hens are responsible. •• • . An ample water supply should be kept before the hens at all times. Make sure the hens will drink all they need. In winter the water should be warmed to about 60 degrees. • • • Hens give off more water according to weight than any other domestic animal. Therefore, they need a constant supp’y- • • • ' Bacillary white diarrhea is due to bacillary infection; common diarrhea is due to dlgestional disturbance or chUiing of the chick. • • • One of the first signs of poultry tuberculosis Is a gradual wasting away of the birds. Often the -bird is lame In one or both legs, its wings drooped and its joints are swollen.
