THE IOWA GRANGE
Steam Roller Is Used When Highway
Measure Is Advocated.
SAYS THAT GRAFT IS TOO EASY
Proposal to Allow Trustees and Su
perintsndents to Take Part In
Road Contracts Causes Con-
siderable Excitement.

Cedar apids.-Branding resolu
tons offered at the closing session OF
the Iowa State grange here as a plan
to enable a Statewide road graft"
members Of the grange brought out
the steam roller and used 1t in quasll.
ing the report of the committee on
public highways.
The report was presented and read
by w. j. Lang of lie Mars, but he
didn't get chance to have his mo-
ton for its adoption seconded
This was the only breach in an
otherwise harmonious convention. The
principal objection of those who led
in the movement to quash the report
was the proposal to eliminate the
township superintendent from the
list of those prevented by statute from
receiving township contracts for high
way work, and a proposal to limit
the standard width of all roads to
twelve feet.
The proposal to permit township
trustees and superintendent to figure
In the road contracts caused general
stir in the convention. Several Of the
members denounced the proposition
as a Clever scheme to permit state
wide road graft"
In the resolutions adopted at the
closing session it was declared that
the farmers of Iowa should so organ
ize as to eliminate the middleman,
dealing direct with the consumer.
The cooperative farmers elevator
companies and the farmers coopera-
tive insurance companies were point
ed to as examples of what might be
done along this line.

BABY BEEF IS TOPIC
RELATION TO THREATENED
SHORTAGE OF CATTLE DIS
cussED BY PRODUCERS.
DECLARE FARMERS ARE WAsTEFUL
Henry Wallace Tells the Corn Belt
Meat Producers Association That
Much Grain Is Thrown Away BY
the Iowa Agrieulturists.

Des Moines.-The question of
baby beef it's relation to threat
ened shortage of cattle in this coun-
try, and the consequent rise in the
price of beef, were the chief topics
discussed at. one session of the Corn
Belt Meat Producers association lust
closed. Many of the principal cattle
raisers of the state were present "a,
the meeting and joined in the contro,
versy.
w. H. Pew, professor OF animal
husbandry at the Iowa State college,
delivered an address in which he
stated that baby beef has made more
economical gains for the producer than
the older cattle have, and that they
also gain more rapidly.
This was proven" he said. "in a
feeding operation carried on at Whit
ing, Ia, in 1912, where calves weigh
Ing AIS pounds made an average
daily gain for 1876 days of 1877
pounds, as compared with gain Of
LAP pounds for 259 days on 2-year-old
cattle weighing at the start IT'S
pounds. The gains in the case Of the
calves were, as was to be expected,
made on considerably less feed, which
means that they were more economi-
cal. Cattle that can be marketed be-
fore they are IS months OF age have,
therefore, made the most economical
gains and with proper care and feed
have made ne most money for their
grower and feeder"
In speaking of the proper feed for
these young cattle he said, "a ration
for calves composed of corn, old pro-
cess linseed meal, clover or alfalfa
hay and ensilage seems to be as sat
isfactory as any for making rapid as
well as economical gains on calves"
He laid the rise IN the price of beef
to the rapid increase in population.
On this account, he said, many farm
ers have sold their breeding herds.
with the result that we are now fac
ing more or less Of a beef famine.
Iowa has suffered proportional loss in
the numbers of beef cattle. In the
twelve years between 1900 and 1912
there was decrease in population Of
! per cent with a decrease In the
number of beef cattle OF some 80 per
cent. n
Capt. w. H. A. Smith OF Sioux City
told Of his own experiences in feed
ing cattle for profit He is an ardent
advocate of baby beer. His policy,
he said, is to put his cattle on half
rrations OF grain and let roughage do
the rest OF the work. He advocated
fattening the cattle as quickly as
possible, feeding them only once a
day, and selling them young instead
OF holding them until they reached
their heaviest weight.
Henry c. Wallace, secretary of the
association, said: 81 believe that you
farmers of Iowa are better farmers
than you used to be. You are grow
ing better corn, but | am not so sure
that you are growing better cattle. |
think you are turning your attention
too much to fancy stock, whereas you
should concentrate your attention on
proper feeding" He told also OF the
conditions he found in Ireland this
summer when he visited that country

Wilson.

their apiaries by state inspectors.

seased apiaries, with 4S3 colonies suf-
fering from the foul brood out of a
total OF 6,973. He treated fifty-two
of these colonies himself. destroyed

and destruction OF large number
more. Ignorant beekeepers are the
bane of the industry, Mr.. Pellet says

bees, he asserts, should no more han.
die them by slipshod methods than he
ought to plant his corn by dropping
