va empezado discutir el pfesupuesto
del Departamento; existe un proyecto
de presupuesto suplementorio para ell

bacion es de gran urgencia y necesidad
para este Departamento, porque debido

views the law in an able fashion that
leaves the AZ taxpayers nothing to
stand on. And in summarizing the
practical side of the case he gives
an explanation of the farmer pro-
gram which can not be answered.
THE ONLY WAY OUT
at is hoeless," said Judge Ami
don, ito expect a population consist
ing Of farmers scattered over vast
territory, as the people of this state
are, to create any private business
system that will change the system
now existing. The only means
through which the people of the state
have had any experience in joint ac-
ton is their State government. II
they may not use that as the com :
mon agency through which to COM
bine their capital and carry on such
basic industries as elevators, mills
and packing houses and so fit their
products for market and market the
same, they must continue to deal as
individuals with the vast combina-
tons of those terminal cities and suf-
fer the injustices that always exist
where economic units so different in
power have to deal the one with the
oti1e..
PEOPLE WANTED THE LAWS
"TKe, foregoing is what q majority
Of the people Of the state have been
persuaded to believe by those whose
they trust. Whether their
grievances are real or fancied, whethr
er their remedies are wise or foolish,
are subjects about which the court
is not concerned. The only object in
trying to set them forth has been to
place the constitutional amendments
and laws here assaulted in their true
relationship to the life and thought
of the people by whom they were
adopted.

RODENTS III CHICKEN YARDS
There Should BE No Trouble in Get.
ting Rid of Them by Using Sugar
of Lead Poison.

Rats cause great losses IN many
poultry yards, but there should be no
trouble in getting rid of them by poi
soning with q. mixture of two parts
cornmeal and one part sugar of lead.
The hand should not come in. contact
with the poison feed, and all other
feeds should be removed so the rats
cannot get them.
The poisoned feed may be kept away
from the chickens by putting it il 8
tray, nailed to the middle of the bot
tom Of board at least q foot square
and six inches high The box should
be closed on all sides except for

cayed flesh Of even imprisoned rats

 SENAT'R WHO FEARS CLASH

WASHINGTON, Oct Fl. -P)-Urging the Ameri- can public to stop the labor movement, Senator Freling- huysen, of New Jersey, chairman of the senate com mittee Investigating the coal strike, viciously at tackled unionism under its present leadership, charac- terizing it as a new auto cracy that is ever tending toward bolshevism. He as serted that the movement should be stopped by the public before it brings the clash which he fears is in evitable.
 The senator criticised the demands of the coal miners for a five day week and in creased wages. He said the demands are inordinate and If they are granted will de- crease production.
 He also referred to the steel strike, the strike of Boston policemen and the New York longshoremen' strike, asking "Where will this striking frenzy stop! Unless it is stopped we will reach a state of anarchy that is worse than the Ger man autocracy.'
