PEA PACKERS Of
STATE IN SESSION
HELD AT MILWAUKEE IN
THE REPUBLICAN
HOUSE
PROF. MOORE GIVES ADDRESS
Talks on Pedigreed Seeds and the
Work of the College of Agricul-
ture in Raising the Yield
Per Acre of Grains.

Madison.-"The manufacturers of
benzoate of soda are the worst enc
mics of the canning industry in the
country" said Frank E. Gorrell, secre-
tary of the National Gamers associa-
ton, in his address before members
of the Wisconsin Pea Packers asso-
citation at their sixth convention at
the Republican house.
THE newspapers of the country are
often innocently duped into adver-
Using campaigns for chemical preser-
natives, and the borax trust is espe-
cially prominent in advancing this
kind of work.
Mr.. Gorrell> read the bill requiring
heavier tin plate for cans, to be in
troduced in this congress, and said
Wisconsin was entitled to the credit
for having been the pioneer in the
movement for better tin plate. The
bill requires three pounds of tin to
the box.
The feature from the pea growers
standpoint, was the address of Prof.
r. A. Moore on pedigreed seeds and
the work of the college of agriculture
in raising the yield per acre of Wis
consin grains. After detailing the
wonderful results obtained from Oden-
brett barley, No. oats and pedigreed
corn, which had attracted the atten-
ton of the agricultural world, he adj
mitted that as yet the department
was growing very few seed peas, al
though corn was much more difficult
to grow.
mo reason exists" said Professor
Moore, why we can't make as rapid
progress with peas, and in ten or
twelve years greatly increase the
yield per acre, the uniformity of the
ripening period and uniformity Of the
size of the peas, which are the three
objects to be attained in pea culture.
I'VE have doubled the yield Of corn
and increased the yield of barley ten
bushels to the acre, and there is no
reason why we should not do as much
for the pea grower. From all over
the world now comes the demand for
Wisconsin pedigreed grains, while we
have to go to other states for our
seed peas, although Wisconsin has
more acreage devoted to pea growing
than any other state, and we have
1000 young farmers, educated in our
college of agriculture, waiting to
grow seed peas for the entire world.

States Claim on Milwaukee.

Madison.-In the supreme court was
argued the case of the state of Wis
consip against the city and county of
Milwaukee, an action brought by the
state to recover from those corpora
tions the sum of 1920, 732.4S, being the
amount of fines and penalties collect
ed therein for violations of the penal
laws of the state and which, according
to the constitution of the state belong
to the school funds of the state.
The period during which the state
claims there is default in the payment
of these fines and penalties by the
city and county extends from January
1, 1859 to January 1, 1909, and the de-
PENDANTS plead the statute of limita-
ton. In the trial court judgment was
entered for the state and the defend
ants appealed to the supreme court
where the statute of limitations was
again offered as a bar against collection
by the state. Attorneys concluded that
the statute was available to the de-
PENDANTS for the reason that they are
at most but agents for the collection
of the moneys in question, implied
trustees, and as such may invoke the
protection of the statute.
The state contended that the trust
is one created by the constitution
which provides that the clear pro-
ceeds of all fines for violations Of the
penal laws shall constitute a part
OF the trust funds Of the
state to be used exclusively
for the support and maintenance
of the schools Of the state and that 1t
is beyond the power of the legislature
directly or indirectly to ALLEVIATE the
fund or any part of 1t to purposes
other than those specifically mentioned
In the constitution; that, under the
doctrine established by the supreme
court, the statute of limitations OPP
crates lot only to abolish the remedy
but to transfer title to the adverse
claimant after the period prescribed
has expired; that the statute is not
available to the county and city for
he reason that the legislature is
oowerless to relieve them in contra
gention of the plain provision OF the
fundamental law
