Sufferers Should Realize Tina
It Is a Blood Infection.

Doubtless like other sufferers,
you have often asked yourself this

main unanswered.

1t is not safe, therefore, to defer har-
vesting a house full Of ice.
Many Kinds of lce-Houses.
The house may be any one of many
kinds. An ideal ice-house is n thing.
A house that will keep ice is quite an
other thing. Farmers Bulletin 623 of
the United States department of agri-
culture gives full information concern
ing them.
The ~ice-harvesting season fortunate
Iy comes at a time when there is the
least work on the farm for men and
teams, and consequently the actual
none cost is usually not very great.
The quantity of ice needed depends
upon the location of the farm-wheth-
err in the North or in the South, the
number Of cows MIXED, and the meth
cd Of handling the product. In the
northern states it has been found that.
with a moderately good ice-house, one
half OF a ton Of Ice per COW is sufi-
Gent to cool cream and hold 1t at a
low temperature for delivery two or
three times a week. One and one-half
or two tons per COW should be pro-
vided where milk is to be cooled.
Capacity Of Ice-Houses.
Al cubic foot of ice weighs about 81
pounds, SO in storing Ice It is Gus
tomary to allow from 40 to 30 cubic
feet per ton for the mass Of ice. AT
least IL inches must be left between
the ice and the wall Of the building
for insulation, unless the ice-house has
permanently insulated walls and an

Manufacturers and Inventors
to Appear Before Congress
Conferees January S.

Manufacturers and inventors from all
over the country-those concerned about
getting their patents issued promptly
and those who wish to preserve their
patents against seizure under federal
authorization-are coming to Washing
ton for hearing on January ) before
the House and Senate conferees on the
so-called patent office bill.
Senator Frank B. Brandegee said to-
day that all of the interested parties
will De invited to appear in person ana
thrash out their differences of opinion on
this measure, which organizations OF
manufacturers claim gives the Federal
Trade Commission a right to enter INTO
competition with the American manu-
1acturerS.
Primary Aim of Bill.
The patent Office bill'' primarily is
a measure to enlarge the force OF EN-
ployes. especially expert examiners, IN
the United States patent office, and to
give general increases in salaries. so that
this Seif-supporting federal institution
which has n surplus to its credit. can
keep abreast with the work necessar! 10
keep American business going. Inc sen
ate, however. tackled on an ahehui"eh'
which gives any government ehpio!e an
the Federal Trade Commission ana gives
that establishment authority TO Woik
any patent. The manufacturers cialm
that this puts temptations to steal pat
ents before employees of the patent once
and other government employees ana
brings the United States government
into connection with the manufacturers
All of the members of Congress nave
been flooded with protests from an
over the country, received from IN
ventors but especially manufacturers
ORGANIZATIONS and business men gen
orally. pointing out the extreme dan-
ger to American business If this IN
fringement on patent rights Is perpe-
trated by the government.
Additional Argument.
They are likewise insistent that as
the business men and manuIac uTels
of the country make the patent once
self-supporting. and have punt up
surplus to its credit, there snouid oe
enough competent employees hired SO
that the patent Office could do the
work required by the business inter-
eStS.
Senator Brandegee is ranking re-
publican on the Senate patents COM
mittee, of which Senator George w.
Norris is chairman. He said To-Day
that he is not taking any part IN the
controversy over this patent once Dill.
He has received the same sort OF pro-
tests that have been sent to all mem
bers of Congress. and felt that the
best way to settle the matter. and set
tie it right. was to call all the inter-
ested parties before the conferees ana
let them thrash out their claims
All Are to BE Heard.
At this hearing, Senator Brandegee
