trict bills was interrupted yester-
day by the failure Of joint confer

son, ranking member and former
chairman of the House District

Conference Held.
Chairman ZihlmAn Of the SUB
lcommittee on trafic of the House
District Committee, conducted
conference on this measure ip ex-
iecutive session yesterday, but made
no announcement as to what dect-
sions were reached. Senator Dill
ineham introduced a trafic bill sew
eral days ago embodying the recon-
mendations Of William Phelps Emo,
international authority on the sub
ject. Emo had said that standards
similar to those he advised for New
York, London, Paris and other cities
were needed for safety in the
streets OF Washington, where he
said the dangers to life. limb and
property are worse than anywhere
else. Chairman Zihlmsn is under
stood to have prepared himself at
yesterdays trafic subcommittee
conference TO tell the Senate con-
lferees just what can be expected
from the House in regard to trafhc
laws, and the Joint discussion OF
this matter may come up before

Plan Meets Opposition
Representative Mapes Is the au-
thor of the bill passed at the last
session by the House proposing to
abolish the $3.50 tax relations be-
tween the Federal and District gov
ernments. Opposition to his plan
has been expressed in the Senate
through a bill by Senator Jones
of Washington, restoring the 50-5C
basis, with notifications. The fact
that Representative johnson is IA
milisr with details in regard "a
the taxing methods of the District
makes IL Important. in the opinion
of Representative Mapes, that he be
heard.
New arrangements for the two
joint conferences on the District
bills are expected to be made be-
fore the end of the week. Chair
man Majs, of the House District
Committee, having been notified
Tuesday that the Senate conferees
were ready for the discussions yes
terday, will be expected to notify
Senator Dillingham; when the House
members are ready, IL is under

FINER FARMING.
III. A. Powers.)

R. L. Myracle, few yers ago,
found that the use of cotton seed meal
reduced the cost Of feeding his mules.
He also observed that during hot
weather they suffered less from heat.
To a thousand pound mule one should
feed scant quart of cotton seed meal
per day with corn. This should be fed
one half at the night and the remain
ing one-half at the morning and noon
feeds-divided equally. Cotton seed
meal will cost about the same per
pound as corn. In case the former is
used the ration may be easily reduced
to the extent of twice the weight of
the cotton seed meal fed which means
quite little saving on few head of
mules or horses for the year and what
is more important-greater efficiency
In case high grade Of bean, pea, or
clover hay, free of grass, is fed it
would not pay nearly so well to sub
stitute cotton seed meal for part of
the corn in the ration. Think it over.

great howl every time an advance Of
that kind of transportation is men,
Homeland the howl is made by peo-
pie in business, who themselves have
greatly increased prices. If all other
businesses are entitled to advance in

Prices all round ought to go higher,

But we can't continue increasing our
production unless we continue increasing
our railroad facilities.
The farms, mines and factories cannot
increase their output beyond the capacity
of the railroads to haul their products.
Railroads are now near the peak of their
carrying capacity.
Without railroad expansion-more en-
gines, more cars, more tracks. more ter
minals-there can be little increase in
production.
But this country of ours is going to
keep right on growing the railroads
must grow with it.
To command in the investment markets
the flow of new capital to expand railroad
facilities land SO increase production -
there must be public confidence in the
future earning power Of railroads.
The nations business can grow only as
fast as the railroads grow.

port of June I.
Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 6.-The average
condition Of all fruits on July l was
6S per cent of a full crop. Secretary
r. S. Herrick Of the state horticul-
tural society shows in his official re-
port on the condition of the Iowa
fruit crop July 1.
This is p per cent higher than on
July a year ago and per cent
lower than the June 1, 1920, report.
Turnout the state as whole the
average prospect for winter apples
is 55 per cent, for fall apples 81 per
cent. and summer apples 81 per cent.
Secretary Herrick states, however,
that the average is cut down by the
orchards in southwestern Iowa, where
the prospects are not so good as in
the central and other sections OF the
state. Southwestern IOWA orchards
had a good crop last year, while the
rest of the state did not. Hence this
is more or less Of an of year In that
