AND FEED
CONTROL AGREE
Conference Held at A. and N. College
Results In Restoring
Harmony.

For some years there have been DIFF
ferences OF opinion between the feed
control service and the Cotton Seed
Crushers' Association as to what con-
stltutes fair standard for cotton seed
meal and cake. Early in the history
OF the service. standards for cotton
seed meal were set at 80 per cent pro-
tein and fat combined and per cent
crude fiber. The millers complaint
has been that the . per cent crude
fiber did not permit them TO put up a
meal with only so per cent protein
and fat; in other words. that the feed
control service forced them TO sell a
meal more nearly choice than prime.
on the basis OF prime. on the other
hand. the feed control service con-
tended that with the low standards
for protein and fat the only means OF
preventing the millers from adulterat.
ing meal was to hold the crude fiber
down TO . per cent. Last fall com
mittee OF millers from various sec
lions OF the state met in Director
Youngblood's office at College Station.
with a view to presenting Information
and making arguments in favor OF an
increase In the crude fiber content, IN
order that the millers might more
nearly approach the level OF so per
cent OF protein and fat. At that meet

/ ON INVESTIGATION
Prosperous Braxos County Farmer
Tells Experience and Of condi-
tons In His Community.

c. II. Risinger. one OF the most sue
cessful and prosperous farmers In
Brazos County. was In the city today.
and the Eagle reporter was pleased to
form his acquaintance and enjoyed a
few minutes conversation with him.
Mr.. Risinger lives at what is known
as Steep Hollow. He has lived In that
community for about forty-five years
and owns 500 acres OF land in that
section. but only has n little more
than i5O OF this In cultivation. Mr..
Rislnger makes success at farming.
largely because he is a good manager
and also because he diversifies and
raises what he eats at home and has
something for the market almost all
the time. During the twenty-eight
years that he has been farming. he
stated to us that he had never bought
exceeding eighty bushels OF corn, some
of this a number OF years ago and
| twenty-five bushels was purchased
/ last year because the storm destroyed
his corn and other crops. but that al.
most every year he had sold corn.
while many farmers were forced TO
buy. He said he had rarely ever had
to buy meat. but instead sold largely
OF this product. having sold 100 pounds
Of lard today for l5c per pound.
lie was asked about what the PEG
pie In his community would do this
| year about the planting OF other crops
than cotton. and he said there would
be considerable change.
A larger acreage would be planted
to corn. sorghum and peanuts. ant
that a number would look well to the
hog industry who had neglested e
do so in the past, and that all wer'
preparing to live at home, which HI
thought meant prosperity to farmers
and business men as well. Mr.. Ris
niger said he had four acres in pea
nuts last year, which would be In
creased to six this year. and othe
neighbors would also increase thei
peanut acreage In a like manner.
When asked as to school facilities
in his section. Mr.. Risinger declares
no community had better one. Abou
three years ago Steep Hollow an

Ing II developed that the miliers were
greatly at variance as to what was
wanted. At the meeting they simply |
asked for an Increase Of per cent
In the crude fiber content of cotton
seed products. Director youngblood
asked those present to appoint anoth.
or committee TO submit additional en-
formation. This committee was ap-
pointed and the information furnished
Director Youngblood.
Director Youngblood then wrote the
president OF the Cotton Seed Crush.
ers' Association. stating that the mill.
ers were still at variance as to what
was wanted and suggested final com.

president OF the association and two
other members, to be appointed TO

TO adjusting the matter In fair and
equitable manner; both the miller and
the feeders considered.
At this meeting Director Young
blood proposed standard OF "a per
cent OF protein. or 81 per cent OF pro-
tein and fat combined, with not more
than IL per cent OF crude fiber. to take
the place Of the old ruling Of 80 per
cent OF protein and fat, and not more
than . per cent OF crude fiber. This
was agreed to by the committeeman,
as shown in the following memoran'
dunn OF understanding. which was sign.
ed by them and accepted by Director
Youngblood.
Memorandum Of Understanding.
ave. the undersigned. acting for
and In behalf OF the Texas Cotton Seed
Crushers' Association. have come to
an understanding with the feed con-
troll service. ON this the 18th day OF
February. 1916. at College Station,
Tex, as follows:
, 1T Is agreed that the definition and
standards for cotton seed meal shall
more nearly coincide with the rules
OF the Texas Cotton Seed Crushers
Association as follows:
Cotton seed meal Is composed Of
, the decorticated kernels Of cottor
seed. free from excess OF hulls anc
. other foreign materials. II must con
+, tain not less than "a per cent OF pro
tein. or not less than 81 per cent o
> protein and fat combined, and no
more than II per cent OF crude fiber
Cotton seed cake shall correspond
, to cotton seed meal In composition
and as to standard.
!, 1T is agreed that any deficiency II
, percentage OF fat may be offset b.
, additional percentages OF protein. as
= for instance. In cotton seed meal guar
, anteed to contain per cent OF TAI
&c per cent of protein would be RI
quired.
, 1T will be observed that the 81 pc
cent OF protein and fat combined &C
incide identically with the rule Of tn
Texas Cotton Seed Crushers' Associa
ton. and that the increase OF pc
cent In crude fiber gives the miller
freater latitude in holding the stand
ard for protein and fat.
1T Is agreed that the standard 70

SHUT-W SOCIETY
DOES GOOD WORK
Organization Presents opportu-
nifty to All to Take Part in
Aiding Afflicted Persons.
(Contributed.)


PHILADELPHIA, April 2O-The
shut-Tn Society was organized In
New York City in 1877, Its aim beln z
10 extend comfort and relief to those
who are chemically Ill.
The Pennsylvania branch was or
ganized In 1902, and has charge OF
the work Of the society in Pennsyl-
yanla. Virginia. West Virginia and
Kentucky. The report on member
ship of the branch, March 6, 1915,
follows:

ginia 4. West Virginia 2, Kentucky

glnia 81, West Virginia At. Kentucky

Shut-ins from other states 26.
Total 1925.
This society presents an opportu-
nifty for anyone who wishes to take
part In tn is work OF making afflicted
lives more enduraole. New associ-
ate or active members, and annual
contributors are desired. The Penn
sylyania branch also wishes to know
OF any invalid In these four states
to whom the society could bring
good cheer.
From the annual report OF the
president, Miss Mary Parker Nlchol-
son. covering the work OF the Penn
sylvania branch. the following ex-
tracts are taken:
Our branch has rounded out It's
twelve years OF organized work, and
we turn to God with gratitude for

especially for the stirring new life
within us. for the open doors Of use

cial condition OF the branch which

dawn for those throughout the states

that there are ISL shut-ins In care

EXPERIMENTS
With Sulphite Ammonia to In.
crease Productivity of Pota-
to Fields Being Made.

LONDON, April 20-Farmers In
the British Isles are conducting ex-
periments with sulphite OF amonia to
Increase the productivity of the po-
tato fields.
In this connection one OF the re-
cent reports of the department OF ag-
rlcultural and technical instruction
for Ireland showed that fifteen tons
OF farmyard manure gave yield Of
eight and half tons Of potatoes.
The addition OF hundred weight OF
ammonium sulphate increased the
potatoes by nearly a ton. The Uni
versity College Of North Wales has
made similar experiments which
show that in four years the expendi-
ture Of one pound Cs5l in sulphlte
Of ammonia and superphosphate pro-
duced once one ton and three times
ton and half OF potatoes beyond
the yield of the ten tons OF farmyard
manure to which It was added.
Potatoes we're worth four pounds
(S20) ton last year.
