Control Service and to the Expert.
ment Station. as the Feed Control
Service brings various problems to the
attention OF the Experiment Station
which require solution.
In conclusion II is fitting to state
that during the past few years much
has been accomplished. The feeders
are relying more and more each year
on information received from the Feed
Control Service with reference to the
value Of different feeds. They are also
looking to the Feed Control Service
for protection which they in the end
pay for. and to which they are emit
tied. and Il is only just and right that
they should.
Texas Has High Standards for Feeds.
Texas has for years maintained
the highest standards for feed stuffs
as a whole of any State in the Union.
Take for instance cotton seed pro
ducts. The Texas requirements are
as follows:
Cotton seed meal Is composed OF
the decorticated kernels OF cotton
seed. free from excess Of hulls and
other foreign materials II must con.
tain not less than a. per cent OF pro-
teln, or not less than 81 per cent Of
protein and fat combined. and not
more than II per cent o crude fiber.
Oklahoma requires only IS per cent
OF protein in cotton seed meal. and
Arkansas $3.50 per cent while the
State OF Georgia permits this product
10 be sold under the name OF cotton
seed meal so long as II contains as
much as &c per cent protein. As re
suit OF this high standard maintained
on cotton seed products Texas cotton
seed meal or cake is sold at pre-
MUM on all markets OF the world.
Il must be remembered that any
products manufactured outside Of
Texas which are marketed In this
State must conform to the Texas re
quirements. II can. therefore, be
seen that the feeders Of this State are
receiving better feedas a whole thar
those In the neighboring States. ant
at the same. time the manufacturer
are likewise protected against manu-
facturers In other States who produce
low grade feed.

One department OF the State gov
eminent has for its sole purpose the
protection Of feeds sold for live stock.
That department Is the Feed Con
troll Service. and IL is located at the
Texas Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton.
Realizing that many OF the feeds
sold in the State were OF inferior
quality. the Twentyeighth Legisla-
ture passed a law. Senate Bill No.
l59. governing the sale of concen'
trated feed stuffs in Texas. The
Twenty.ninth Legislature amended
this law, and the new act is known
as House Bill No. $3.50. Some rea'
sons for the necessity Of such legis.
lation were: u the adulteration OF
feed stuffs with inferior or worth
less materials was precticed (2) feeds
barred from sale in other States
were shipped into Texas and sold;
90 much OF the feed offered to the
Texas trade was short Of the required
weight.
Object Of the Law.
The object OF the Feed Stufs Law
is to provide means by which every
purchaser Of feed stuifs may know
exactly what he is purchasing at the
time of the sale. and to give protee-
tion to both the consumer and to the
honest manufacturer against the dis
honest manufacturer. II also aims
TO protect the feeder against low
grade feeds. The law can not protect
against carelessness on the part OF
the purchaser O feed stuff. The
purchaser OF feed stuiis should read
the statement ON tine tax tag carefully
before buying. and take advantage o.
the information given.
The tax tag attached to every pack
age OF feed stuc carries the following
information:
I. The net weight OF the contents
OF the package. This gives the guam
tlty OF feed stun in the package. eX
elusive Of the weight OF sack, or othe
container. The object OF this pro
vision Is to let every purchaser bnov
exactly how much feed stun he q
buying.
2. The name OF the article must b,
on the tag This name must be col
rect. The law provides that no fee
stun may be registered under a falls
or misleading name.
3. II the feed stun Is mixture
the name OF the materials OF whie
Il is composed must be stated on III

T. The name and Address OF th

place of manufacturer must be give

8. The tax tag must carry a stat
ment Of the percentage OF protell
fat. crude fiber. and nitrogen.free e'
tract and the maximum perceniaG
OF crude fiber. In order that this II
formation may be exact, the law pr
vides penalties for manufacturer
who sell feed stuns which do not col

Organization.
Section ia. as amanded by the
Twenty.ninth Legislature. empowers
the director OF the Experiment sta
ton to adopt standards and deini-
lions for concentrated feed stuffs and
to refuse the registration OF feed
stuffs under certain circumstances,
and TO cancel registration under GER
tain circumstances after notice. and
to adopt rules and regulations for the
enforcement OF all OF the provisions
OF the feed stutfs law.
The director OF the Experiment sta
ton has established a division OF the
experiment station known as the Feed
Control Service. This division.
through It's executive secretary, is
charged with the enforcement OF the
law. Six duly appointed inspectors
travel continuously throughout the
year examining feed stufts for adulter'
alton. false wei GIFTS. uE;agged goods
and other violations OF the law. giving
information to tho farmer. feeder and
miller. collecting information con
corning feed stuffs. and taking sam

trade. The samples collected are for

State chemist. which is chemist to the
Feed Control Service. They are sub

What Has Been Accomplished.
Since the passage Of the feed Law
the following are some OF the results
obtained:
1. 1t has placed the feed stun

concentrated feeds are now sold 70
what they really are.
2.It las equalized and promoted un
formity in the selling price OF feed.
3. Il has induced farmers and feed
ers to investigate the relative value
OF feeds. and has thus increased tn
sale OF feeds of known value.
4. It has prevented the sale OF
number OF worthless feeds.
8. II has encouraged the manufa'
turers to maintain a high standar

6. II has prevented the shipmer

San Antonio. June 29-General Funston and all of his staff officers today were busy shaping the hourly increasing arm for a possible of fensive movement in Mexico.
 The notice of the release of the American prisoners held in Chihua- hua City did not lower the high pressure in the military prepara- tions here.
 Notwithstanding this order. Car ranza has not released his vigilance, and his troops continue their con- centration program south of Mata- mOras and at other points, accord ing to reports received here today from various border commander.
 Trains bearing certain units of the eastern euardsmen are expected to cross the state line today.

EIGHT MEXICANS
 CHASED OVER LINE
Evidently Were Trying to Sneak Into American Town at Night When Discovered and Anoth-
 CT Invasion Was Near.

Nogales, June 2s.-The American occupation of Nogales, sonora Mexico, seemed quite possible for a little while early this morning when eight Mexican soldiers were driven back across the international bOun- dary line by United States gentry post guards as they tried to cross the American line.
 The Mexican withdrew, and Major Brooke, commanding the American troops. ordered his men to drop anybody you see acting suspicious ly."
 If shot comes he added, we will go straight across.
 The attempt of the Mexicans to cross into American territory was made at midnight just west of the town. The rattle of rifle shots came from the sentry post stationed at a point where there had been no post previously.
 1t was evident the Mexicans did not expect to find any United States soldiers there, and apparently they expected to steal into the outskirts of Noeales unnoticed.
 Corporal Hageland. in charge of the eight United States soldiers at this post, gave the order to open fire when the Mexicans failed to re- ply to challenges. The American troops fired about twenty rounds, but no casualties thus far have been pannrfad

New Mexico Men to Strengthen

Columbus, June 29.-The New Mexico National Guard crossed the international boundary line into Mexico last night for the purpose of strengthening General Pershings line of communication on receipt of reports to the effect the Carran- cistas are concentrating their force
 This make the first contingent of National Guards to be ordered into Mexico proper.
 The order for the New Mexico guards to enter Mexico at once was given immediately following the re- oeipt of report that the Carranza troops are concentrating large force of cavalry at or near Guzman which town is on the Mexico North western railway.
 Such troops, 1t is declared here by army officers, are in a position to break the American line of com municatlon, which is but ten miles from Guzman.
 The large rem0unts. which left here yesterday for General Persh- lnes headquarters at Namiquipa, this morning were ordered to turn back by the American commander who feared the concentration re- ports might be true.

quired to pay as much to send a letter to his next door neighbor as to distant point The expense of handling a local delivery letter is very small since it requires no rail- way or steamship transportation or handling enroute In fact am in- formed that in thiokly populated towns postal experts h,.ye figured that such letters are handled at a profit of several hundred per cent. This being the condition there is n0 sound argument. in my opinion. against fixing the local letter rate lat l cent per ounce.
 The Postal Service should not be regarded as a money making insti- luton It was founded primarily to give the American people the very best possible service at actual cost stated Mir. Wingo. "Congres- sional action fixing a rate of cent on all local letters can only have a good effect Instead of reducing the annual revenues of the Postal Ser Nice it would, in my judgement. serve to increase them AlthO every patron of the mail service would reap the benefit of the proposed rate t would be of particular benefit to business people of every description. lt would open un an entirely new medium for developing business. Soon after the inauguration of the proposed rate the average merchant would be spending two or three times as much for postage as he does under the existing conditions. '

Vienna. June 2s. The Taseblatt, the first Austrian newspaper Co comment ca the Mexican situation. expresses the opinion that the Unit ed States is committed lrretrieyably to an imperialistic attitude which aims at the annexation not only of Mexico. but all of Central America.
 This newspaper regards the pres ent situation as merely the logical outcome of the imperialistie policy which. it says. was begun under the Cleveland administration and to which the United States became welded by the Spanish-American war.
 In criticising the United States, the newspaper says the American policy is not altogether wrong. but because the United States is not nreDaped for war 1t is acting in Typical American haste"
