CONGRESS appears to be worried
~ over the agricultural situation. At
any rate a congressional investigation
is quite possible. Senator LenroOt of
Wisconsin sponsors the following reso-
lutiOns:
"Resolved by the senate (the house
of representatives concurring), That
a joint commission is hereby created,
to be known as the Joint Commission
Of Agricultural Inquiry which shall
consist of five senators to be appointed
by the president of the senate and five
representatives to be appointed by the
speaker. Said commission shall inves-
tigate and report to the congress with
in 80 days after the passage of this
resolution upon the following sub
jects: q) The causes of the present
condition of agriculture. (2) The

of the federal government to handle
the situation. He finally withdrew his

XTASHINGTON.-A new constitu-
wv tional amendment which would
make it compulsory for the President
to appoint a woman to the United
States Supreme court bench is under
contemplation. A measure drafted for
the reorganized National WOman's
party has been submitted to legal au-
thorities, to ascertain whether it can
be made a part of the Constitution
as woman's bill of rights.
AS it now stands, one of it's sections
provides that women shall sit on ev-
cry board, commission and court whose
membership is appointed by the Pres
ldent or other federal official.
One section deals with the rights of
wives, providing that every married
woman shall have the right to retain
her maiden name, choose her own

dOmfcile and to "enjoy all other privi-
leges" she possessed as a single
woman.
The measure also establishes the
right, Of women to sit on juries in every
state and federal court.
The protection Of illegitimate chill
dren is provided in another section, re-
quiring the father of child born un-
der the bar sinister to contribute to
its support and to give it the protec-
ton of his name.
BY another section, the measure
would write the "single moral stand
ard" into the Constitution.
Equal pay for equal work, the re-
moval of all determinations from
women in the civil service, the right Of
women who marry foreigners to retain
their American citizenship and equal
opportunities for women in all educa-
tional and medical institutions which
are supported in whole or in part by
state or federal funds are also pro-
vided in the measure.
If it is decided not to submit it as
a constitutional amendment, the meas
ure will be introduced in congress.
Senator Curtis of Kansas, Republican
whip Of the senate, will introduce it in
the upper house and Congressman

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
The planting season is the time
when the dairy farmer should arrange
to see that he has crops enough to fill
his silo. AS a case in point, Missis-
sippi farmer failed to take this matter
into consideration when he bought
silo of go tons capacity, for he found
that he had corn and sorghum for
only 20 tons of silage; and since, more
over, he had only s cows, he decided
he had made a mistake, and tried to
sell his new silo instead Of setting it
up. A field man from the dairy divi-
sion of the United States Department
of Agriculture however, persuaded
him to keep it until the next year, and
to put up a small stave silo for imme-
diate use. He did so, and found 1t
such help in feeding his COWS cheap
ly that he bought more land and re-
solved to enlarge his herd to so cows,
and thus make good use Of his larger
silo.
Both the height and the diameter
VI TIE SllO uuuSL DS CUuSluGEGus 4ue
proper diameter of the silo depends
upon the quantity of silage to be fed
daily; and this quantity will vary
with the size of the herd. The silage
should be fed out fast enough to re
move it from the top of the silo at the
rate of 11a to 3 inches day, depend
ing upon climatic conditions. The
warmer the weather the more silage
must be removed from the surface
daily in order to prevent spelling. For
the winter feeding season it is safer
to figure upon removing 2 inches daily
than any smaller amount.
A common error in building is to
make the diameter too large for the
size of the herd. The weight Of a
cubic foot of silage varies according
to the pressure to which it is sub
jected, but in a silo 30 feet high the
weight per cubic foot averages about
40 pounds. So, by knowing the guam.
tity of silage to be fed daily, it is pos
sible to estimate what the diameter
of the silo should be to permit the
removal Of a certain number of inches
each day. The table below shows the
proper diameter Of the silo, on basis
of 40 pounds of silage per cubic foot,

Federal Law on Automobile Stealing

Uncle SAM evidently wants to
~ tighten up on the automobile
thieves. The senate has passed an
amendment to the act of 1919 Sena-
tor Nelson Of Minnesota said of the
amendment:
"The only amendment proposed to
be made in the law is to put in the
word 'embezzlement,' so as to include
not only cases where the automobile
is stolen, but as well cases of embez-
Element. The distinction is very well
put by the Supreme court Of the
United States in the case of Moore VS..
The United States (16O U. s., 269),
where the court says:
Embezzlement is the fraudulent
appropriation of property by a person
to whom such property has been en-
trusted or into whose hands it has
lawfully come. 1t differs from larceny
in the fact that the original taking of
the property was lawful or with the
consent of the owner, while in the case
of larceny the felOnious intent must
have existed at the time of the taking
"This bill simply proposes to amend
the law so as to cover those cases
where a man may have hired an auto
mobile or may have come into posses
sion Of an automobile and afterward
concluded to embezEle it."
The act, as amended, reads as fol
lows:
