Ter generating Mr.. Ballinger, prepared by
LAWYER, his appointee and in effect his
subordinate, man who had a special
grudge against CLAWS, and who in that
draft of letter declared CLAWS guilty of
faisehood, Of the suppression Of the truth

Peppers Brief for Pinchot.
Mr.. Pepper says that the question whether
Pinchot has been right and BaIlinger wrong
is less important than whether the admin
istration of the Interior Department under
the latter has been marked by fidelity 10
the public interest He says that when Mr..
Baliinger became Secretary he had had a
land Office training" that being equivalent,
as Mr.. Pepper views ii. to a leaning toward
a policy OF distribution of the peoples
land
Ar. Pepper gives general and specific
answer TO the question as to what infer
ehce ought TO be drawn from the testimony
respecting the administration of the Inte-
rior Department. since lIr. Ballinger be-
came Secretary. His general answer is that
there has been no administration worthy
"i The name, but only series of acts, un-
wise IL themselves, and that these acts
nave been directly responsible for ernbar-
Iassnlent 30 the President and loss TO the
people.
Ills specific answer Is that the testimony
taken IN this investigation shows that the
course pursued by the department has been
characterized by n lack of fidelity 10 the
public interest; that Mr. Raninger is re-

Prof. Bolley is getting his Bureau

of the state should feel it their duty
to send in questions and get all the
information they can, and should get
their names on the Special mailing

Special emphasis is being laid on the
fact that the farmer should raise his
own fax seed, then by using special
care in getting started with good seed
and treating each year it will be pos
sible to keep out the fax wilt and thus

in succession, although Of course it
should be rotated with other crops.
The professor also states that he is
receiving some very encouraging let
ters from elevator men who are in
terested in helping keep up the max
crop. One line OF companies has writ
ten a letter to their agents instruct
ing them that when they find some es-
pecially good fax that they put it
aside in a special bin and reserve
it for seed. A special equipment for
testing fax seed has also been provld-

THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN THE
BEEF AND DAIRY TYPES
NE


(By Prof. w. B. Richards Better
Farming" Special Train)
Many farmers continue to raise
cattle for market for beef purposes
from stock that do not possess any
blood Of the beef breed, and conse-
ouently they lack what is known as
the beef type. 1t Is impossible to
produce beef economically from cat
tie of the dairy type, or even from
cattle that possess any considerable
amount of this blood.
To produce an animal OF the beef
type it is necessary to use the beer
breeds OF cattle, such as the short
horns, Herefords, Aberdeen Angus,
and Galloway. Cattle of this breed
ing put on flesh very much more
rapidly and Of better quality.
A beef animal could be described
in general way as a low down CON-
pact blocky animal. He must have
a short blocky head, a wide breast, a
deep wide chest, broad back, good
spring Of rib, heavy full thighs. He
must have pliable mellow skin, for
this quality indicates a good heshing
tendency.
Tho Dairy Type.
The points that a cow should pos
sess if adapted to economical milk
production are quite the opposite
from what is seen in the beef animal.
In comparing the steer, Dick, on the
Good Farming" special with the Jer-
sey COW, it will clearly indicate this
is the case, for the type of the two
animals is quite a contrast.
The dairy COW possesses a long
face, thin slender neck, sharp pro-
jecting shoulder. She is not very
wide in the chest but her capacity
of chest is due to her depth which
is greater in proportion to her size
than you will find in the beef ami
NAL. She possesses large barrel
which indicates a good capacity for
digesting her food. Her depth here
should exceed her depth in any por-
ton of the body. A dairy COW should
have a good width at the hips. Her
thighs should be lean and free from
muscling. She should be open be-
tween her thighs.
Much attention should be given
the udder Of the dairy cow-a large
udder does not indicate a good one.
They are often very f1eshy; a good
udder should be elastic and plfable,
and shows many folds when MIXED
out. The teats should be placed equal
distances apart and which is gener
ally always the case if the udder is
symmetrical and we'll proportioned =.
Large milk veins are good indica-
tons, the more wisding and branch
ing they are the better the ind1ca-

THREE FAMILIES TO EACH FARM.
(By w. C. Palmer, Ayr. Editor, Agr.
GOllPQo M n

College, N. d.
Tree families 20 each farm il the
case in the United States today. One
on the farm and two in town, but al
dependent on the farm. Tive genera
tions ago nearly everybody lived on
the land and it was the lookout Of
each family how they worked the land.
Now with two-thirds of the people in
town, it not only concerns the men
on the farm whether the crop is good
or not but also the man in town who
is dependent on the produce OF the
land for a living. Whether the crop
be poor or good really affects the city
man more than 1t does the farmer who
can keep out enough for himself If
there is no surplus it is not hard to see
who will suffer most.
As industry developes we get more
and more dependent on each other.
The farmer, however, remains the
most Independent, and again the wav
he carries on his work is of the most
vital Importance to US all. The soil
is the source OF everything that calls
forth the efforts or industry. The peo-
pie who till the soil have charge of the
source of supply and the rest have to
go accordingly. De we want more to
do with; then the farmer must pro-
duce more. To do that he must have
more knowledge and skill in his work.
AS long as the land was virgin it
would it would produce with any kind
of outstanding. Much of the farming
is hardly on permanent basis yet:
witness the abandoned farms in the
east, the decreasing land values in
the state Of New York in the face Of
increas ng markets.
AS long IS the farmer can only make
/ the soil produce onethird Of what it
is capable, so long must our manufac-
turing, transportation, merchandising
and banking remain at approximately
ce-third of what it could be, and large
ly for lack of special training for his
i work on the part of the farmer Who
is most interested in the man who tills
the soil being trained for his work?
Without a doubt it is -the man in the

FLOWING.

Why plow? It loosens up the soil,
exposing more Of 1t to be acted upon
by the sun, air and frost. Stubble and
weed seed are buried, and so changed
to humus. The water holding capaei-
ty Of the soil is increased, and rain
fall can get into plowed ground easier
and faster. On deep blowing . heavi-
er rainfall can get in without run of
than on shallow blowing.
Do not take a wider furrow than
the pillow will cut. Thoro blowing pays
1t IL also a good practice to disc right
after harvest; this puts the ground in
better shape for blowing.

Chicago, Ill.,, Dec. IA fight for
the control of the Elgin butter board,
whose weekly quotations have served
for more than quarter of a century
as a basis on which butter was
bought and sold in practically every
part of the United States, will come
to head Monday. when the board
will hold its annual election of officers

waged by Chicago members of the
ssoard, who have long contended that
the naming of the opening price of
butter each week has been done
under farcial conditions Since the
first of the year the Chicago men,
bers have been fighting to bring
about lower prices. They maintain
that the butter board is manipulated
solely in the interests of clique and
they threaten to make some startling

those in control do not agree to re-
form their methods of procedure.
