with Joy and pride. But when It was
far north II saw bit Of bright blue
high In the air. That was where the
blue sky, impatiently waiting for the
deliverance Of the sad old King, had
torn away just tiny corner Of cloud
and was looking down slyly.
"Oh. beautiful sky!" cried the little
bird. Il know that should not stop,
but must look at you and sing Just

And II sang. The green cup fell TO

SO did the little bird. That Is why
the blucbirds always come ahead of

blue and beautiful early In the year.
"There Is none left now, little

did not run like the man or sing like

Washington, March 15.-Anti-dump-
Ing legislation To protect American In.
dustries from European competition
will be pushed through at the special
session OF Congress under decision
reached Mt conference of Republic
can members Of the Senate finance
and the House ways and means COM
mittees with Secretary Of the Treas
ury Mellon.
Whether tariff " internal tax re-
vision shall be accorded second place
on the fiscal program was left for de-
termination nj n conference which
Chairman Penrose OF the Senate com.
mittee and Chairman Fordney Of the
House committee plan to hold with
President Harding.
The final program, Senator Penross
said, probably viii be announced after
this conference.
Most committee members at the con-
ference were said to favor giving right
Of way to tariff revision legislation.
Agreement, II was said, was unani-
nous against attempting to enact any
temporary stop-gap tariff bill. the feel
ing being that the legislation should
be permanent.
The soldier bonus bill Is to be
part Of the Republican fiscal program,
Senator Penrose and Representative
Fordney announced. Financial require
ments Of the government for adjust
ment OF compensation to former serv.
ice men were included In estimates
considered at the conference. and after
the meeting Senator Penr0se predicted
that the bonus bill would be passed
early.
Prior to the conference Senator
Watson Of Indiana, Republican
member Of the finance committee, ID
sued a statement declaring internal
tax legislation should precede revision
Of the tariff, adding that the business
world expects Immediate relief "from
the burden Of taxation
The Republican leaders said they
expected to pass the anti-dumping bill
early.
Referring to the sentiment against
attempting temporary or makeshift
tariff bill, Senator Psnrose said both
committees are alive to the require
ments Of the agricultural situation"
The opinion seemed to be-" he add
Cd. that temporary tariff legislation
would not be practicable; that SUCH an
attempt would be practically efeated
In the Senate by the efforts to load 1t
diwn with other schedules" +
Chairman Fordney said he believed
| the House committee might have q tar
III bill ready when the extra session
convenes, April II.
1T would be brought out right
away quick" he said, land passed
within ten days."
Whether additional hearings will b.
required on the tariff legislation was
not determined. Both committees,
however, are expected to work on the
fiscal legislation between now and
April II.
The question Of providing new
sales tax In the internal revenue revi.
sion also was not determined today.
Secretary Melons statement Of the
treasury's condition was said by Sen
ator Penrose to be much more favor
able than expected"
The treasury requirements for the
next fiscal year were estimated BY
| Representative Fordney at about ~
| 0O0,000,O0O.

Trading has been limited on this a.
vision. Demand was stronger than for
some time past. and statesmen had no
difficulty In clearing their pens.
The unusually light receipts on all

largely responsible for the recent gain
in values. The threatened packing

ON NEW ZEALAND FARMS
Associations Handle All
Forms of Produce.

Cooperation on the part of the agr-
cultural interests is general throughout
the Dominion OF New Zealand, writes
vice-Consul McCafferty. In almost
every centre throughout the country CO.
operative general business concerns are
established. which include general de-
partmental stores from which share
holders and others are supplied with
nearly everything they require for their
domestic needs as well as for their
farms. These concerns are associated
with sales yards situated all over the
country. which deal with the farmers
surplus live stock.
Associated with these organizations
are also grain and produce stores. many
Of them fitted with machinery for dress
ing all kinds of seeds and grain re-
quired by the farmers for sowing pur-
poses. This practically covers the
makeup Of what are known as general
farmers cooperative associations. Other
classes Of cooperative effort are meat

JAVAN TOBACCOS
FIND READY MARKET
American Buyers Get Finer
Grades for Wrappers-Sul-
tans and Princes Profit.

Tobacco is cultivated in Java by ma
tives working Independently of foreign
supervision, by natives under the super
vision of European companies, by Euro
pean planters, who lease the land from
the natives. hiring them to work. and
by European companies who lease large
tracts of land from the sultans and
princes.
The cultivation of tobacco by the ma
tives OF Java, like most of the native
agricultural effort, is carried on with no
conscious effort to improve the quality
Of the product, the opinion being that
such differences in quality as exist in
the native production are due TO the in
fluences of the climate and soil. The
cultivation of tobacco under the super
vision OF Europeans is centred in the
residency OF Bezuki in eastern Java,
and in the Vorstenlanden. which in
cludes the principalities of Jokjokarta
and Surakarta in the southern part OF
central Java.
While the general process OF cultiva-
ton is the same in both districts, the
conditions Of climate, soil, labor and
land tenure are not the same, and the
product is of different qualities. al
though both find ready sale in Euro
pean markets, and American buyers get
the best OF the wrapper grades from
both districts
The preparation of the soil for the
cultivation of tobacco begins IN April,
AS soon as the rice crop is off, and the
land is turned back to the natives by
January |. The tobacco companies in
