Democrats Are Against
Remaining in Session to =
Pass New Revenue Bill

Sentiment among democratic leaders
in the House is overwhelmingly op-
posed to Secretary McAdoo's suggestion
that Congress shall remain in session
during the summer to pass a new reve-
nue. and tax bill. Chairman Kitchin and
his colleagues Of the ways and means
committee share this feeling. They
were utterly surprised at the sudden
change of front Of the Treasury De-
partment in favor of tax bill at this
time, as it had been part of the admin
tetration's program not to pass a reve-
nue. bill at this session.
: Chairman Kitchin is of the opinion,
which is concurred in by other demo-
Gratis on the committee. that the gov
ernment has authorization for the rails
ing of ample revenues between now and
the beginning of the second session. At
any rate. if such be found not to be the
case. they think 1t would be better for
Congress to come back in extra session
in November rather than to prolong this
session.

FEEDS FOR DAIRYING
High Prices Cause Farmers and
Owners to Hesitate.
kafir, siIage and Alfalfa Hay Make
Nearly Balanced Ration for Cows
Grain Needed for Heavy
Milk Producers.

(By A. C, BAER, Department OF Dairy
ing, Oklahoma A. and M. College, Still
water.)
Farmers and owners of dairy cows
are lamenting over the high price Of
feeds, and are wondering If there is
any profit In dairying under these con-
dltions. The farmer cannot do any
thing more patriotic than to keep the
cows. The nation and the state need
dairy products-the best Of all foods.
Cows can be profitably kept even at
present high prices of feeds. Kafr,
sIlage and alfalfa hay make nearly a
Balanced ration for dairy cows. One
ton Of alfalfa hay per COW, along with
good sllage, should keep her In milk
foW until the pastures are again rail-
able.
Many dairymen are grinding up al
falfa hay and feeding It lhstead, Of
bran.
Heavy milk producers should have
some grain, but cows can be fed less
grain II some form Of legume hay Is
provided.
National necessity requires that milk
production must be maintained or the
necessary food for our nation viii not
be available.
The prices received by farmers for
butterfat and milk are comparatively
as high as the price Of feed, and dairy
ing is almost as profitable as 1t ever
has been.
DaIrying. or the keeping of COWS. has
many advantages to the farmer, 1t af-
fords steady cash income throughout
the year, and 1t keeps all labor on the
farm probably employed. 1t enables
the farmer to utilize much rough feed
material which otherwise would find
no market. Dalrying helps to provide
manure for other crops Most Of the
talk about dairying not being profit

MOST VALUABLE ANIMAL in SWINE HERD.

from the United States Department Of
Agriculture.)
The management Of the boar is a
very important part in the raising Of
strong, healthy pigs, and one which Is
sometimes neglected. He should be
the most valuable animal In the whole
herd, and as such deserves the best of
attention. The boar should be pur-
chased from a breeder of purebred
hogs when between eight months and
one year of age. Many breeders, how
ever, purchase boar when weanling
pig, but to be successful in this choice
requires wide experience and sound
judgment. Aged boars which have
proved their worth can sometimes be
purchased at a reasonable price. 1t
Is much safer for an inexperienced
breeder to buy an old, active boar than
young untried boar. If possible, the
farmer should visit the herd where
the boar was raised and note the con-
ditions under which he was bred. At
any rate, 1t is always possible to OBJ
tain from the breeder notes on the
health and the kind and amount Of
feeds used, so as to serve as an index
to his subsequent treatment.
Upon arriving at the farm the boar
should be unloaded as soon as posi-
BILE and placed in quarantine to guard
against the introduction Of disease In
to the herd. II he Is lousy it Is well
to treat this condition as once. His
feed should be a continuation Of that
to which he has been accustomed,
feeding rather lightly the first few
days until he RECEIVERS from the strain
Of shipping and becomes accustomed
to his new surroundings If it Is not
feasible to continue feeding as previ-
ously indicated, the change to a more
convenient ration should be made very
gradually In order not to disturb the
ap, lite or health of the animal. AS
a rule, a pig eight to twelve months
old will be in proper breeding condi-
ton when received unless he has been
very heavily overfed. In purchasing
an older boar, particularly one which
has been in the show circuit, II Is often
necessary to reduce his condition be-
fore attempting to breed. With some
animals the breeding power is perma-
nently impaired by too high condition
at some time in their life. The boar
should be well fed but not fat. as a
too high condition makes him inactive,
slow breeder and a rather uncertain
sire.
Management During Breeding Season.
During the breeding season 1t is well
to confine the boar to his paddock, see
ing, however, that be has plenty OF
exercise. AS the sows come into heat
