cussion, ana probably to some chang

cussion, and probably to soms chang
es in W present system. There 10
a broad gsnsral theory that each de-
partment Of O.. business should stand
on it, own feet and pay its own ex-
penses., But while this theory exists,
In III actual application the exceptions
arc 30 numerous that It may fairly be
said that there u no rule at all. In
many lines Of business 1t is often
found expedient to conduct n or
more departments at or below cost
because Of the advantage that such .
practice will be to the business Is a
whole. In the fixing Of railway freight
rates no attempt is made to make ev-
cry classification self-sustaining. The
general plan followed is to provide low
rates for heavy, bulky and cheap COM
modities. n to charge much higher
rates for goods representing higher
values with smaller weight and bulk.
The operation Of branch lines is very
often unremunerative in itself, but be-
cause the volume Of trunk line bua-
ness is p%rofitably increased thereby 1t
Is considered that such lines are. on
the whole, profitable.
There is not this particular rela-
ton between freight and passenger
business in anything like the same
measure, although there is q connec-
ton which can be traced. But there
is another element OF considerable
importance. High passenger rates tend
to diminish travel. Passenger fare
must be paid in one lump sum by the
traveller. Freight bills are paid in the
first instance in a lump sum-, but US
ually in The course of a business tran
saction which involves the exchange
of money. Freight costs are added to
purchase costs, and the whole is pass
ed on to the ultimate consumer. But
the consumer pays his freight bills
gradually, a little here and a little
there, SO that to him the freight III
ment is imperceptible. Assuming that
passenger rates were to be reduced to
a cent a mile, there would be q loss
to the. railroads which would have to
be made up in additional freight
charges: But approximately the same
people would pay the bills in the end.
And the payment Of the deficiency in
freight bills would be less noticed
than is the necessity for digging down
for present passenger fares all in one
lump.

Alfalfa Rich in Protein,

As previously indicated in articles
on alfalfa, when considered from the
standpoint Of a hay or rough feed,
alfalfa Is the richest product grown
on the farm. Alfalfa is particularly
rich in digestible protein. Protein is
the part of all feeds. which contains
nitrogen, and is essential in feeds from
the fact that it is utilized in the MAX
ing of all growth-muscle, milk, bone,
tendons, hide, hair, hoof. etc. 1t ia
this part Of feeds that enables the rpilk
cow to produce a large flow of milk,
and gives the young the strong Bone
and muscle that is always noticed
when they are properly fed. In this
respect alfalfa is practically the equal
Of bran in digestible protein.
Combine Alfalfa With Other Feeds.
Because of the fact that alfalfa is
SO rich in this part Of the feed called
protein, 1t is essential that it tbeFcoml
bined with other feeds for SECURING
the best results. That 49,, 1t has been
determined by carefully conducted ex-
perimcnts that different classes OF
animals require definite amounts Of
the different feed elements to supply
their needs. Alfalfa alone furnishes
also for the sake Of variety It should
be combined with other feeds, which
are not 10 rich in protein.
A Balanced Ration.
Combining the different feeds that
may be available, SO as to furnish
the animal with what IL required for
best results, either for growth, fatten-
ing or milk production, is known as
balancing the ration. That is, q bal
anced ration is a combination of feeds
which when fed to an animal will pro-
ducs the, results desired.
The ration for q dairy COW would
beSnecessarily very different from the
ration Of q fattenihg steer or a grow
ing calf. The dairy COW, for instance,
requires a large amount of protein
because the production OF milk is de-
pendent on the replacement Of the
blood supply, which requires a large
amount of the element protein, while
the fattening steer would require 1arg.
er amounts Of the fat producing sub
stances which comprise tho fats, sug.
ars and starches, or the carbonaceous
part Of the food.
It has also been learned that where
nm animal has been fed an excess OF
protein. a part Of this protein a be
broken down and utilized by the an.
imal in prace Of sugars or starches
while it is not possible for the sugar,
and stArches in the feed to replace
the need for protein. Consequently j,
is very important that the amount Of
protein be kept up to the requirement,
of the animal. and there is no feed
grown on the farm that wilt make ii
possible to balance up the ration II
economically and satisfactorily az al.

good. It has, however, been COM
planned by some that when alfalfa is
available 1t is almost impossible to get
the cattle to eat any other kind OF
roughness, especially straw, We doubt,
however. whether this fact should de-
ter anyone from growing alfalfa, be-
cause unquestionably cattle will finish
alfalfa; is not available. However, it
is d. good practice to feed the less
appetizing feeds, such as straw or corn
fodder, before the alfalfa is fed.
In regions where plenty Of alfalfa
is available. it is not an uncommon
practice to- feed cattle all they will eat.
They soon become accustomed to the
feed, and seldom eat moro than is
apparently good for them. There is,
however, some waste in doing this be-
cause some cheaper feeds could be.
utilized with equally good results.
There are instances Of where some
detriment has resulted from feeding
0 much alfalfa. This is noticeable in
the coarseness of calves which are
dropped from COWS. especially young
ones, that are fed an excess Of alfal-
"a. This would be avoided by limit
ing alfalfa and feeding some corn
fodder or straw. ".

CONFISCATING EVERYTHING.

The federal supreme court rules
that under the Volstead law an auto
mobile used for the illegal transpor-
ton of liquor is subject to confiscation
even though it has been bought on
credit and only partly paid for. The
equity Of the creditor in this Ease is
destroyed by the unlawful use Of the
vehicle. Counsel for the appellants in
this cas- suggested in their argument
that under this principle, which was
supported by the government, a Pull
man railway car could be confiscated
because a passenger had carried a
pint flask of whiskey in his pocket,
If a package of liquor had been SNUG
gled on board and the company had
~innocently been made the Transports
ton agent. In its decision the court
mentioned this illustrative argument,
but said that 1t was not called on to
decide that particular point in con-
nection with this case.
The illustrations used appear to be
very pertinent. Any number of 9TH
ers might be used. For instance, a
man sells a farm on partial payments.
The buyer takes possession and with
out the knowledge of the mortgage
starts up a still and goes into the
moonshine business. The mortgage
is no more responsible for the use to
which the farm is b ing put than is
the mortgage who holds a claim
against an automobile responsible for
the use made of the car. If the car
can be c~onfiscated and the property
Interest of the creditor destroyed, why
cannot the farm be confiscated and
the equity of the creditor cancelled?
If this is the correct principle of
law, land it is to be generally recog-
nized, credit will be at an end. It is
obviously impossible for the mortga-
gee to stand guard ove the property
which is pledged to him as security
for Indebtedness, and without stand
ing guard he canno know t what
moment the owner may use It illegally.
If it is 70 used, his security is de-
stroyed.
In the particular case Of the automo-
bile, it will no longer be safe for a
dealer to sell a car on credit. That
this ruling will end the sale of auto
mobiles on part credit is not to be ex-
pected. 1t will result in q more care
full scrutiny of the character Of the
purchasers which in itself will not be
a bad thing. But with all the scruti-
ny that can be given there will be an
element Of additional risk against
which no forethought can provide. That
risk must be taken into accoun in
the transaction OF business, and ulti-
mately, as in all other cases. the bur-
den Of carrying the risk will fall on
those consumers who actually pay
their bills.
If the court, on further considera-
ton, concludes that it has correctly
interpreted the law, then the law Il
in need OF amendment, and that at
once.

CORN FOR EUROPE

d Fifteen million bushels of corn
ahave been offered by American farm
Sers for the relief Of hunger in Eu-
rope aud China. Herbert Hoover,
latter soing over the whole situation.
81 chairman of the relief board, has
: decided IN the acceptance Of the
Stender, and steps are now being taken
fto arrange for 1.-THE preparation and
transportation Of this food.
1 The problem of getting the food to
1.-THE places where it is needed Isl not
la simple one In many Of the Sec
etions where aid is most needed the
people know nothing about the use
tot corn. They have never used it, and
Fare not familiar with it's preparation.
European mills are not equipped for
1.-THE grinding of corn, and the grinding
must be done here. Unusual care
I must be taken in the transportation
sof the ground corn, Is it spoils easily,
land cannot be shipped long distances
lin bulk.
1t is estimated that it will cost
Flbout so cents a bushel to prepare
land transport this corn. and a special
fund is to be raised for this purpose.
EThe money which has been subscribed
for relief purposes by the general
public cannot be used for this pur-
pose. as that fund is to be devoted ex-
clusively to the purchase of food di-
rect. All the expenses of admins
tration are provided for aside from
the public subscription, SO that for
every dollar subscribed by the public
a dollars worth Of food will be de-
liyered to some starving family. It
is intended to handle this corn dona-
ton in the same way, and appeals
Will be made to railroads, millers and
others to assist. Mr.. Hoover is con
fident that arrangements can be made
TO take car of all the corn that Is Of
fered, up to the full fifteen million
bushels, or more.

T AND RUSSIA.

The conditions Of the agreement
between the British government and
that of Soviet Russia have been made
public. Chiefly they relate to matters
of trade. There is no recognition of
the Soviet government as tho legally
constituted government of the coun-
try except such as may be implied.
There are agreements as to the rights
4 of citizens of each country travelling
for living in the other; commitments
as to freedom of commercial inter-
course; arrangements as to the ship
ment of goods and of the money
which is to be used in payment for
them. Nevertheless the compact has
the unfortunate feature that it does
inevitably tend to strengthen the po-
sition of the Lenin despotism and to
give it an appearance of regularity
which it has not earned, and to which
it is not entitled.
The Bolshevik administration is a
usurper and a bloody tyrant. What
ever authority it Yields is the direct
result of brute force and terrorism,
and it has not the title on which many
other despotic governments have rest
ed their claim to authority that it
governs capably and effectively. It's
existence is predicated On a denial of
human rights which form the very ba-
sis Of civilization, and the suggestion
that an organization protesting its
principles and pursuing it's methods
can be received by other nations with
| respect and confidence is a denial of
civilization itself.
The problem which Russia has
presented t o the world is n of the
most perplexing with which the ma
tons have had to deal. One hundred
and seventy million people inhabiting
a territory stretching across two con-
tinents, are without government ex-
cept as little embryo republics which
may or may not endure have been
whitfield out of fragments Of the once
great empire, and except as a species
of authority is welded over the
greater part of old European Russia
by assrnall group Of radicals who
operate without semblance Of a man
date from the people, and who do not
leyen profess to accept that principle
~ DEMOCRACY which makes all per-
sons equal before the law.
sS1t may be that the British govern
ment has adopted the best method
available under the circumstances
