MOVE FOR REIMBURSEMENT

An early downward readjustment
of railroad freight rates is the OBJ
jective of a campaign launched by
the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation
at meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the organization, held in
Des Moines, July 9TH and Sth.
The plan is to make the movement
as general as possible by urging all
other organizations of farmers, mer-
chants, bankers, manufacturers and
commercial bodies 20 cooperate, in
this way developing a comprehen-
sive campaign and concerted ad-
vance along the entire line of bus
mess industry.
To this end the Federation Off
Gals were instructed to confer with
the leaders of other organizations in
Iowa, both farm and commercial, in
order to mobilize public sentiment,
after which the campaign would be
carried into other Middle West
states.
The Federation has been quietly
gathering data and working infor-
nation for some time, preparatory
to inaugurating some such move
ment. The situation has peen stud
led from every possible angle that
promised light on the subject. The
principal fact to be faced II that
practically nothing in the way of
farm products and livestock is NOV
ing, simply and solely because
freight rates absorb too large pro-
portion of the selling price of the
product shipped.
1t had been suggested to the Fed
Grafton that the fight for readjust-
ment of rates be divided among the
various business industries-grain
men to work for reductions on grain,
livestock men to look after livestock
rates, while the merchant, the man
ufacturer, ct al. should each tackle
his own problem.
After extended investigation the
Federation decided to oppose that
plan of procedure, principally on the
ground that it would mean a series
of long-drawn contests and hearings,
in the course of which there might
be tendency on the part of the rail-
roads to revert to the pre-War plan
of increasing the rates on some COM
modities when compelled to back up
on others.
The Federation insists that gem
eral downward reimbursement OF
rates is the only means Of rehabil-
itating the business interests Of the
country, the railroads included, and
A. general readjustmenr can be ac-
complished only by united action by
all concerned

NO DEBATING SOCIETY
Hoover Plans Governments
Unemployed Conference.
Says Meeting Will Not Be Allowed
to Become battle-ground for
Capital and Labor.

Washington, Aug. 30.--"The govern
ment's proposed unemployment confer
ence will not be allowed to become a
battle-ground for capital and labor.
All contentious questions will be
barred"
Secretary of Commerce Hoover
made this assertion in proclaiming
see that every American breadwinner
who desires employment may find it.
I'VE are not going to allow such
questions as the open shop, wage
scales or union conditions to be dis
cussed," Mr.. Hoover emphasized.
Neither will labor or capital, as
organized forces, be given representa-
ton. 1t is hoped To have not more
than Is or 20 men who know employ
ment conditions from both sides par
ticipate. Thus some constructive
work can be accomplished and the
conference prevented from developing
into a debating society"
The first work to be undertaken by
the conference which he expects will
convene in the middle Of September,
will be a survey of the actual unem-
ployment situation. said Mr.. Hoover.
He indicated that the total of 5000
600 out of work as estimated by the
Department of Labor, Is too black a
| picture"
While in no way Understanding
the serious situation which may result
from large numbers of unemployed ex-
hausting their savings during the COM
ing winter, Mr.. Hoover said that the
number OF "breadwinners" out OF work
is nowhere as large, in his estimation
| as the total announced.

For later crops heavy soils can be en-
ployed, and muck soils are widely used
for the midsummer and fall crops.
Land that is in good physical condi-
ton as the result of early and proper
handling. well supplied with available
plant food and rich in organic matter,
is essential to best results. Appli-
cations of stable manure at the rate
of 20 TO 80 tons per acre are advis-
able. and this may profitahly be sup
plemented ty the use of commercial
fertilizer containing at least . per
cent nitrogen, 8 per cent phosphoric
acid, and 4 per cent potash.
The seed is sown in rows al least
30 inches apart If horse cultivation is
practiced, but under hand cultivation
they need not be more than Is to IS
inches. Ordinarily about pounds
of beet seed per acre is required. Seed
is ordinarily covered TO depth of
Y TO l inch. AS beet seed is rather
slow in termination. the practice of
sowing some Quick-sprouting seed
along with II is sometimes followed.
These plants serve as markers for the
rows before the beets are up, so that
cultivation may be begun before the
beets show above the ground. Radishes
are frequently used for this purpose
Beet seeds come in clusters. and il
is inevitable that thinning by hand
will be required.
Roots intended for winter storage
are allowed 10 stand in the field until
just before heavy autumn frosts oc-
cur. when they are pulled and stored

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
With the development of the silo
many dairy COW owners have over
looked the value of roots as a succu-
lent feed for cattle. Mangel-wurzel,
teets, carrots, and turnips are the prin-
cipal roets grown for this purpose.
They are particularly adapted to the
cooler and more moist portions of the
country. The principal drawback to
their use is the labor of growing, har-
vesting and storing them. On the
other hand. say specialists Of the Uni.
ted States Department of Agriculture,
~OOt crops have a distinct advantage
for small dairies, as it is generally &C
cepted that silo will not prove eco
nomical where less than six animals
are being fed. Roots may be stored
in proper cellar, or buried In the
ground, and can be taken out in any
desired quantity without injury to the
remainder.
A surprising amount Of roots can
be produced on a small acreage.
yield of 25 tons per acre of mangel-
wurzels is nothing unusual, while In
England, where roots are used almost
entirely to supply succulent food, the
yield per acre is increased still further
by intensive farming.
Other kinds of beets, and also tur-
nips>and carrots, may be used. Tur.
nips, however, should be fed after
milking rather than before, as they
give bad flavor to the product. Vel
low carrots impart a desirable color
to the milk. For feeding purposes the
mangels will probably be found the
most practical beet. Among carrots,
the Long Orange is recommended be-
cause of its large size and heavy yield.
1t forms long, thick root, and is very
easily grown. The White Vosges or
Belgian Is grown exclusively for stock,
and is an even heavier yielder. The
rutabaga is recommended as a good
turnip. The same soils and methods
of cultivating are adapted to all three
kinds of roots.
The soil should be well enriched, and
should be one that warns up quickly
in the spring. Most growers regard
sandy loan as best adapted to the cul-
ture of root crops, this being partic-
ularly true of the early spring crop
