PUTS LOWER PHONE
RATES UP TO BOARD

Reduction Of the present telephone
rate in the District of Columbia. after
the telephone lines of the country are
returned to private operation. is a
matter that must be adjusted by the
District Public Utilities Commission,
in the opinion of Senator Cummins of
Iowa. chairman of the Interstate
Commerce Committee. The present
increased rate. authorized only after
the Government took control Of the
local telephone system, Senator Cum
minis said. must be regarded as legal
until a change is authorized by proper
authority.
If Senator Cummins has his way the
whole question of District telephone
rates will be reopened before the
Public Utilities Commission, with a
view to restoring the former rate
Senator Cummins said he could not
speak for the other members OF the
committee.
A meeting Of the Interstate Com
merce Committee was called today by
the chairman to consider steps for the
immediate return of the nations wire
service to private operation. as pro-
vided in a bill by Senator Cummins.
Legislation will be put through the
Senate in the near future, Senator
Cummins said. in order to make way
for the railroad program. which en-
tails a vast amount Of work on the
part Of the committee.
Referring to the District telephone
rates. Senator Cummins warned that
il must be understood that in the pre-
vious hearings the local telephone
company had set forth a good case as
10 why its rates should be increased.
While he is in sympathy with the
movement to restore the former lower
rate to the people of the District, he
said that increased expenditures by
the company should be taken into
consideration.

1t Is a good practice to spray cattle
Tor lice In case they have found a
lodging place in the shaggy winter
growth Of hair.
The spray used on the cattle at the
Pennsylvania State college is a 1 per
cent solution of any standard coal tar
dip. The spray application is made
with n long nozzle to avoid injury to
the eyes of the one applying It. Modi-
fications Of this method include the
use OF a sprinkling can, brush, or
dipping the animal In the solution.
For convenience, animals should be
driven into stall or other enclosure
and sprayed a number at time. While
the entire body of the animal should
be sprayed, special care should be
given to application along the back
bone, the shoulders and directly back
of the horns.
A second application should be made
about 10 days after the first to destroy
insects which may have Matched from
the eggs during that time.

SHOULD PURIFY
GRAIN VARIETIES
Farmers Lose Greatly On Account
OF Mixed Grains

Every person in Utah suffers be-
cause Of our badly mixed varieties Of
small grain, according to Assistant
Professor George Stewart, of the De.
partment Of Agronomy, Utah Agri-
cultural College. Farmers lose some
where in the neighborhood Of $4,000
a year for wheat alone on account Of
the mixed grains bringing lower
price. merchants find it more diff
ficult to dispose Of the non-standard
milling wheats,' says Prof. Stewart.
Because millers cannot make as
good -four from mixed wheat, they
lose both in trade and in price. Poorer
-four means poorer bread, which
everybody eats. Moreover, pastries
are likely to suffer more even than
bread. We eat, therefore, not only
poorer bread but also less delicious
desserts.
"The cause of all this trouble lies
in two things: (1) several varieties
occur in one field badly intermixed,
and (2) weeds are allowed to grow
along with the grain. During the
year ending July 1918, nearly half
"a per cent, to be exact--of Utah's
market wheat was graded mixed"
This caused loss of about 8 cents a
bushel, due entirely to varietal mix
lures. OF the other Sc per cent more
than half-2S.5 per cent--was "cut"
one, two or three grades due to wheat
Of "other classes" another direct re-
suit Of mixing, and due to cheat dam
age" which is caused by the presence
OF green weeds in the grain at harvest
time. The price in this case suffered
from 2 to cents a bushel. Oats and
barley are in the same condition.
"The whole trouble, however, is
preventable. Clean ground, clean
seed, and little rouging will remedy
all. Let the land be cleaned Of weeds
and of volunteer grain. Let seed, as
clean as obtainable, be famed and
screened before planting. Just before
harvest, weeds and all admixtures
can be pulled by hand and carried from
the field. This grain is then threshed
separately, and saved for next seas
on's planting. The first sackful that
rs threshcd should be discarded to
avoid contamination in the thresh-
err"
