u. S. Shipping Board Calls Another Halt

n PERATION of the section of the
W new merchant marine act prOvid-
Ing preferential rail rates on exports
sent to scabOard for movement in
American bottoms will be suspended
until January l, 1921, it has been an
nounced by the shipping board.
Chairman Benson explained that
this time would be necessary for an
investigation Of facts and intelligent
application Of the provisions Of the
act. This section is one of those to
which foreign steamship companies
have objected and ultimately it is ex-
pected to be made the basis for diplO-
matte conversations between the
American and other foreign govern
mentS. ,
This Is the second suspension under
the provision Of the law that the ship
ping board may certify to the inter-
state commerce commission that it de-
Sires suspensions of ninety days dura-
ton. The first suspension was certi-
fed on June 9. Announcing the fur
Their certifcation, Chairman Benson
said:
This section of the act Is In the
interest of American commerce and
shipping. Congress had in view that
the movement of our commerce to or

over a period of 1873 days. During
that time 1925 bills, 132 joint resolu-
tions, 1913 simple resolutions, and
% concurrent resolutions were in
PRODUCED. The president approved
1913 public laws and "a public
resolutions. House committees report
ed to the house calendar 400 bills
and resolutions, while the house acted
on 231 bills and 127 resolutions. There
will be pending for immediate action
when the house cOnvenes 259 bills.
DANGER of a strike of radio oper-
atorS on American vessels has been
averted for at least ninety days. An
agreement has been entered into by
Admiral Benson, chairman of the
shipping hoard, with leaders Of the
National Radio Telegraphers' assOcia-
ton to extend the present agreement
to November l.
MANY collections of Americana hav-
ing to do with the tercentenary of
the Pilgrims will be on exhibit this
year. One of the largest exhibitions
will be in the library of congress,
which has an unusually valuable store
of colonial CuriOs, and Herbert Put
nam, the librarian, has offered to ar
range large collections that will be
changed from time to time, so that
many phases of the early colonial life
may be dealt with.

Bigger Population; More Seats in House

900 or major portion thereof now fixed.
named will lose one or more of the
present districts because their pOpula-
lions have not increased in proper
ton to those Of other states.
On the basis Of the estimated popu-
lation of 106,OO0,000 for the whole
country, in 1920, an increase of ap-
proximately 100000 In ten years,
Mr.. Siegel says siXty-five or siXty-six
new seats in the house must be ere
ated if the ten states are to retain
their present numerical representation.
While precedent warrants the in
crease, Mr.. Siegel declares there is
strong opposition to it on the part of
some of the present representatives,
while others favor reduction to as
few as 300 members.
Mr.. Siegel expects the work of
framing the new apportionment bill in
accord with the new population to
begin with the reConvening of congress
in December, and he anticipates that
the measure will be passed early in
1921.
Every decade since 1890, with the
single exception of 1916 the house
membership has been enlarged TO keep
pace with the growing population.
Now the house floor is crowded
when all members are present.

OATS BEST CROP
Statistics Show Advantages
Over Corn Growing.
On Comparatively Cheap Land In
Western Canada Farmers Get Rec
ord YieIds-Cost Per Acre Much
Less Than Corn.

How much more does it cost to
grow an acre of corn than to grow an
acre of oats? To get a proper COM
parisOn it is necessary to take an IL
lustratiOn from a farm on which both
crops are grown successfully. An ex-
ample has just been brought to the
writer's attention of the comparative
cost of growing corn and oats on q
Minnesota farm. It is furnished by
Albert Inner, a well-known farmer in
Cottonwood county, Mimi, in an ar
ticle which appeared in the Cotton
wood Citizen.
Mr.. Inner says: 81 had a curiosity
to know how much it would cost to
raise an acre Of oats and corn. To
find out I kept account, during the
year, of the. time required and the
cash expended to grow the above men
toned crops" His figures show that
1t cost him SOL 40 to grow an acre Of
corn and $lS.13 1-3 to grow an acre of
! cats, or a difference Of $1,000 an acre
in favor of oats.
Provided the respective crop yields
are not altogether out of proportion to
the cost of growing the crop, this
seems to be a good argument in favor
of growing oats But to grow oats
successfully it is not necessary to use
| $3.50 or 5000 land. In western Canada
some of the best oat-growing land in
the world can be bought for about 500
an acre. On this land good yields and
high quality of grain is Obtainable.
Fifty to sixty bushels to the acre
IN properly prepared land is a fair
average yield for oats in western Can
| ada in a normal season but yields Of
u& to 100 bushels, and even more, to
the acre have been frequent in good
years, The quality of oats grown in
western Canada is attested by the fact
that at all the international exhibi-
tons for many years past oats grown
in western Canada have been award
ed the leading prizes. There is on
record oats grown in western Canada
that have weighed as much as 49
pounds to the measured busEel, and
the dominion grain inspector is author
ity for the statement that 50 per cent
of the oats examined by him in west
ern Canada weigh more than ~
pounds to the measured bushel. The
standard weight for a bushel Of oats
is "a pounds.
Samples of these oats weighing up
ward Of 45 pounds to the bushel are
on exhibition at the Canadian govern
ment information bureau located in
various cities in the United States
