The number OF animals grazing under

PAYMENT OF GRAZING FEES
DEFERRED
Because Of the financial stringency
in the livestock business during the
past year the payment of grazing fees
usually made 80 days before the open
ing of the grazing season was deferred
by the congress until December l, 1921
affecting to some extent the revenues
of the Forest Service from that source
but the total grazing receipts, assum-
ing that all obligations arc paid, will
show falling off OF less than one
half of one per cent.
The general business depression
naturally affected the lumber industry,
yet the cut of National Forest timber
increased az per cent, and was larger
than in any previous year. Both tho
cut and sales of timber for future op-
erations show strikingly the stability
OF the National Forest timber busi-
ness, the report states. Actual sales

1t is a moro interesting report than
usually comes from that great busy
office and includes score of topics OF
particular relation to farm people OF
the west and their present era of ad-
ventures. The report is more in the
nature of a newspaper description with
plain editorial comments than ever be-
fore came from that department, there
being only a few pages OF tabulated
figures.

ESSENTIAL TO THE NATION


First two pages of the report pre-
sent a scholarly paper on the basic
necessity OF the farming industry to
the community, the individual. the ma
ton. as WAS made emphatically plain
in war time; yet values of products
are constantly fluctuating and the
farmer must work on faith. He must
carry all the risks OF. weather. OF heat
and cold, of flood and drought, Of des-
truutive storms. OF insect pests, and
plant and animal diseases. He must
plant enough to make sure that there
will be food for all, with tho practical
certainty that in unusually favorable
seasons the result may be a large sur
plus, and that this surplus, which can
not be hidden, probably will cause
prices lower than the actual cost OF
production. He must be willing to ac-
cept these low prices with the best
grace possible and adjust his living
expenses to meet his reduced income.
The American farmer always has done
this. He is philosopher, as every
man must be who works with nature
and is subject to natures varying
moods. And he feels his responsibility
to feed the people"
The Iowa man details some OF tho
hardships and inconveniences suffered
bN inc american
had produced the bounteous crops OF
1920 by their hard labor. The cost of
getting farm products from the farm
to the consumers table has increased
tremendously during the past three
years. The freight charge 10 very
nearly doubled. and in some cases
more than doubled. When wheat was
selling at $3.50 per bushel. corn at $l.15,
cattle and hogs at SIS to s22 per hun
dred, cotton at 30 cents per pound, the
Increased freight rlltc was not a serious
matter. 1t amounted to but few cents
relatively and was a small item in the
total price. But with wheat ut 81, corn
at 4s cents, cattle and hogs at 81 to $40
per hundred. cotton at II to 20 cents
(all these being primary market prices.
not farm prices). the addition OF even
10 cents per bushel or per hundred
pounds imposes n burden grievous to
be borne. When farm prices are ruin
ously low any addition TO the freight
charge means added distress. At the
present time the cost OF getting some
farm products to market Is greater
than the amount the farmer himself re-
ccives In net return. And the heaviest
freight burden naturally falls on those
farmers who live in our great surplus

EXPERT RESEARCH WORK

The foremost work OF the agricul-
tural department is In the field of re-
search. A staff OF scientific special
lists has been built up who made
studies OF tho soil, OF plant cultural
methods. Of the breeding and feeding
OF animals. of plant and animal dis
eases-of everything which had to do
with crop and live stock production.
1t is this scientific research which
contributes the material that little by
little Is crystalizeed into agricultural
progress. Thru this work OF the de-
partment In cooperation with the vtri-
QUO State experiment stations the Ma
ton is richer by thousands OF new
varieties OF plants introduced from
other lands or created by scientific
breeding. At the present time re-
search work is being carried on in
some $500 different lines OF inves-
tigation, in some by one bureau alone.
in others by tho cooperation Of several
bureaus.
Among the moro important of these
Investigations a few may be men
toned:
Development OF a new process for
manufacturing phosphoric acid to ell
minatc the immense waste now suf-
fcrcd in mining phosphate and thus
reduce the cost of fertilizers.
Development of method for Sc
parating the microscopic colloidal
particles in soils, which is expected
TO throw light on such agricultural
problems as cultivation OF soils.
Development of better methods for
fixing atmospheric nitrogen for use
as fertilizer.
Tho soil survey has completed the
mapping OF soils over an area of
1.063.5sS square milcs. including a.
a15 square miles in Alaska and 400
square miles In Porto Rico. The work
covcrg $50 counties and 80 recon-
noissance areas.
Investigation OF corn root, stalk,
and ear rots.
Investigations of the effect of light,
and more especially the length OF
the day, on plant development.
Development of methods of accur-
ateiy measuring the productivcness
and other important characteristics of
perennial plants. such as fruit trees,
thru bud section.
Experiments looking to improve
ment OF the milking quality OF beef
cattle.
Practical completion Of expert
Incnts which have resulted in the es-
tablishment OF n breed Of general
purpose fowls which lay whitc-shclled
eggs.

Poor Little Rich Children
Much Under Weight

An examination of school children
in Chicago has afforded an interest
ing comparison. Johnny Smith,
whose father is mechanic, and Susie
Brown whose father is a Woodworking
clerk in the stock yards are both be-
low normal weight, but only slightly;
while Dorothea Hamilton, whose ia
Their is a rich banker and Harold
Longstreet, whose father owns acres
If real estate, are very greatly un-
der weight, not because they don't
have enough to eat, but because they
were fed by bottle to start with and
have had too much rich food ever
since they have been old enough to
cry for a second helping of pudding.
The investigation which revealed
these facts was conducted with free
dom along the exclusive private
schools as well as the public schools
in the city, including the tenement
districts, 30 per cent of the children
in one of the private schools were I'M
derweight and only Is per cent in the
schools of the stockyard district. The
survey was made under the direction
of DR.. Caroline Hedger, we'll known
authority on child welfare. During
the war, when the Delaware child
death rate was so high, and few per.
sons trained in child welfare work
available, some of the women of Del.
aware tried to persuade DR.. Hedgei
to come to this State to start the
work. DR.. Hedger was interested but
the people of Chicago interested ir
child welfare and in fact of the State
of Illinois would not hear of even 6
temporary connection with another
State and put all their resources II

there.

Cabled Photographs

Photographs have been successfully
cabled across the Atlantic. The first
pictures actually transmitted were
probably those taken in New York of
the recent international yacht race
and reproduced few hours later in
a London newspaper. There are Sew
eral methods of transmitting photo
graphs by wire and even by wireless
electricity, but the system followed
in cabling the yacht pictures is prob
ably the best. The negative contain
ing the photograph is "coded" or pre-
pared for transmission by an ingeni-
Gus device which reduces the picture
to an arrangement of messages which
resemble an ordinary cable code and
can be transmitted as such. This
message can be handed into a tele-
graph office for transmission like any
other message. On being received on
the other side of the Atlantic this
message is placed in a machine re-
semblng an ordinary typewriter and
is in turn reproduced by series of
holes in long tape. The tape is
then placed in the reproducing mach
inc with an undeveloped plate and
after being transmitted the plate is

New Business Building
in Wilmington

"A new section for business in Will

American Guaranty and Trust COM
pany has begun the construction of
large business building on the point
of land at Delaware avenue, Clayton
and Sixteenth streets. The property
was purchased some time ago from
the Gibbons and Smith estates.
The president of the American
Guaranty and Trust Company is Mr..
J. M. Frere. The building is design

corporation and publishing depart

will occupy the ground floor and base

will have offices in the building.
