Justice Day Reads Opinion and De-
clares That Since Combine Was
Formed Competition Has Been Sup
pressed in Restraint of Commerce.

Washington, Dec AIN an opinion
announced by Justice Day Monday
the Supreme court held that the

ton in violation of the Sherman anti

Justice Day in part said:
THE court reaches the conclusion
that the Union Pacific and Southern
Pacific systems prior to the stock pur-
chase were competitors engaged in
interstate commerce acting indepen-

carrying trade, and that since the &C
QUESTION OF the stock in question the
dominating power of the Union Pa
cific has suppressed competition be-
tween the systems and has effected a
combination in restraint of interstate
commerce within the prohibition Of
the act.
In order to enforce the statutes the
court is required to forbid the doing
in the future of acts like those which
are found to have been done in viola
ton thereof and to enter a decree
which will effectually dissolve the
combine found to exist in violation of
the statutes"

REAR CALVES ON SKIMMILK
Production of Cheap Feeders by Pail
Method Has Become Decidedly
important Question.

There has grown up necessity 70.
the application OF economic methods
in beef production. Though feeders
may be produced from cows with
calves at the side on large areas of
cheap grazing land, it is doubtful
whether this method can be success
fully employed on the average farm
operated under an intensive system.
In this case more revenue must be
secured from i COW during the year
than that produced in the feeder steer
or heifer receiving the entire product
of the mother rearing it,
1t is true that pedigreed animals,
especially of the beef classes reared
for sale, for breeding or for show pur-
poses, can be proftahly snckled by
their dams because of the higher
price they bring. The rearing Of
cheap feeders by the pail method has
become an important question with
the beef producers.
Dairymen, of necessity, have lang
practiced rearing calves on skimmilh
supplemented by grain, hay silage,
etc, and some have even dispensed
with skimmilk feeding IN quite large
measure.
AS a general thing the pail-fed calf
suffers from neglect and want Of suf-
ficient feed of the proper character
