An Absurd Measure.
Elizabethtovn News. ]

"A bilhGhas been introduced into
Congress 3 putting q tariff duty on
twenty farm produces. The Trainer
Of the bill undoubtedly thinks that
such measure would help the sfran-.
ers Of this country; but wilLitG ) q
This country is the largest9export-
or Of farm products of any nation ia
the world. It produces much more
Of nearly all the articles mentioned in
this measure than can possibly be cen
sumed at home. The fact that stfe.
foreign markets have been practically
closed to the exception of farm prod.
ucts, because of the deprecated cur
rency of the nations of Europe, is re-
sponsible for the low price Of these
products at home. There Is more OF
all these things in this country now
than we can consume, and hence the
very heavy slump in their price. Give
US a free foreign market for the
American farmers products and the
prices will at once rise.
In putting a tariff duty on such ar
ticles imported into this country we
at once set an example to other ma
tions to treat US in the same way by
leveling a duty on all farm products
imported into their countries. There
is much more reason why these couD-
tries that do not produce over sixty
or seventy per cent Of what they con-
sumo, should levy duty to encourage
their agricultural interest than the
United States should do it, when we
produce about thirty to forty per cent.
more than we can consume.
If the prices of farm products in
this country have been reduced in
their selling price by the importation
of the same things from other coun.
tries there would be some justification
for this proposed measure, but such is
not the case; Europe has not enough
food products for its own home de,
mand and, therefore, it cannot and
does not import such things to the
United States.
Congress has just reinstated the
War Finance Corporation 10 order tc
enable our farmers to sell in European
markets and that the private corpora,
lions organized for the same purpose
will, by enlarging the American
farmers market, give him better
price, buta tariff duty will not help
him one cent and will only have a ten.
dency to close the very market we de-
sire to reach by similar laws passed TX
encourage their agriculture. 'sWhat
is sauce for the goose is sauce for 'th'
gander." We cannot put a duty or
farm products shippe d into the Unit
ed States without expecting Other
countries to retaliate by similar meas.

lines Satisfactory Plan With
Young Steers.

Highly satisfactory beef can be
made from twO-year-Old steers by
feeding corn as silage. together with
linseed meal and clover or alfalfa hay,
instead Of full feeding shelled or ear
corn, according to the Missouri Col
lege Of Agriculture.
One acre. yielding 40 bushels Of
corn, or eight tons Of silage. If fed as
silage, together with 1.733 pounds Of
linseed oil meal and 1910 pounds Of
alfalfa hay would produce 1868
pounds Of beef and 11.3 pounds Of
pork. If, however, the corn be fed as
shelled corn (full feed) and silage. to-
gether with 1882 pounds of linseed
meal and 345.2 pounds Of alfalfa hay,
1t would produce 201.6 pounds Of beef
and 6S.5 pounds Of pork.

GAIN IN METAL OUTPUT.
Utah Mines Show Increase in Value
Over Last Year.

Washington. - The value of the
gold. silver and copper. lead and zinc
produced from mines in Utah in 1920.
according to Victor c. Heikes of the
United States geological survey was
about $46,OOO,OOO, a slight increase
over that in 1919. The output of gold
and copper decreased considerably and
bulk of silver decreased slightly, but
that Of lead and zinc increased. The
average prices of lead and zinc were
higher than in 1919, but the prices Of
copper and silver was slightly lower.
In general, production was retarded
by the continued high costs of mining,
milling, smelling and refining, and in
August the increased freight rate on
ore and bullion added another handi.
cap to mining.
The four smelling plants in the state
were operated throughout the year.

CURING HORSES BAD HABITS
Training viii Be Needed to
Overcome Fault.

Horses that have been properly
handled and trained are not balky,
neither do they have bad habits.
When horses with bad habits are en-
countered a careful study of each case
should be made in order to ascertain
the cause, and, II possible. to re-
move It.
mess among horses Is punishment to
make them do something that they
cannot do or that they do not under
stand how to do. Another common
cause is the forcing of horses to draw
heavy loads without allowing them to
stop occasionally to rest and regain
their breath. The use of the whip or
spur In such instances should be
avoided, as the pain inflicted will be
very likely to provoke further and
more stubborn rebellion. If a horse
balks the bearing of the harness
should be examined to see If 1t is
hurting him. If heavy load Is he
lowed to rest and regain his breath
and strength he may become sulky
and refuse to pull. Give him short
rest, and while he is resting rub his
nose, pick up front foot and tap the

ness, and he may forget his grievance

baker course of training will be
necessary to overcome the habit.
In older horses where the habit OF
baking is fixed the horse should be
trained to obey all commands with
promptness without being hitched to
the wagon. First put on the double
trip ropes anG use them until the
horse stops and stands when he hears
"whoa." Next put on the guy line,
which should be managed by an as
sistant, while you drive and attend the
trip ropes. The guy line is rope
fastened around the horses neck and
half hitch over the lower jaw. 1t
is very severe and should not be used
to excess. If the horse shows any
tendency to balk, give The command

accord. When ready to start, the as
sistant should take position in front
of the horse and smartly jerk him for

Repeat the process of stopping and
