Times may look blue And no doubt they do But the sun will not cease to shine. After the gloom comes the sunny dawn With it's rays of light sublime So keep toiling on And try to be gay Even though your troubles come fast For after the rain the sun will shine And a smile is the thing that lasts.

!. The experiment, as studied by the
United States department Of agricul-
ture, proved success. however, and
now the number of such associations
has grown from / to 452. It is nota-
BILE that some states which took up the
idea at an early date have stuck to
the movement and organized more and
more associations, while others con-
tinue with only a few. Most states
increase the number of their cow-test-
ing associations as time goes on and
the department Of agriculture is fos-
tering the work.
The lack of testers during the war
caused setback to the movement,
but recovery from this has taken place,
and the number of associations in the
country is now much larger than it
was before the war.

9 law, even though il Be law To
govern railway which is his pri-S
Yate property. Rates are the subject
of strict government regulation and
conceivably they might be too low It
would be wrong, for instance, to au-
thorize low rate for grain on one
line of transportation when another
line could not afford so low rate.
One grain growing section would be
given advantage over another. Ford
might make a rate on his own rail-
way that would give him an advantage
over other motorcar manufacturers.
, Railway rates affect public in
terest which is in the care of the in.
terstate commerce commission. High
er and lower rates are approved or
disallowed as that interest is served.
Lower grain, and hay rates to the
seaboard and reduced carrying charges
on the Ford line will be sanctioned by
the commission when it determines
such a course to be in the public in

Railway Rates as Law.

The voluntary application of west
ern railways to the interstate COM
merce commission for permission to
reduce the hay and grain rate from
the twin cities to the Atlantic sea-
board is likely to create surprise in
quarters where the circumstances
are not fully understood. It might be
asked why the railways cannot sell
their transportation at lower figure
without the permission of the I. C. c..
If it were matter of raising rates the
necessity of the commissions consent
would be quite obvious. Henry Ford,
without consulting the commission,
reduced rates on freight on the little
Michigan railroad he controls and the
commission promptly suspended the
lower rate until it could make an in
vestigation of the situation.
Understanding is quite easy when
the explanation is given. Railway
rates are laws and no man can make

Grain Firm Cited Under Fraud Act.

Findings of the secretary of agricul-
ture just issued show several VIOLA
lions of section of the United States
grain standards act by the Scroggins
Grain Co. Of Minneapolis. Investi-
cation showed a practice on the part
of this firm to quote prices on wheat
according to the federal grades with
the statement added "no dockage."
When the wheat was inspected by
licensed inspectors it was found to
contain from to 5 per cent Of dock
age in the different. cars. Notwith-
standing this the Scroggins Grain Co.
disregarded the notation of dockage
on the certificates in representing the
grade of wheat to their consignees and
invoiced the same at the price agreed
upon in the contracts.
