The record for the largest number
Of cattle tested goes to an employee
Of the state Of Missouri, who tested
14.512 cattle in 1886 herds. Second

A veterinarian of the bureau of AMI
NAL industry in eight months and
twenty days tested 11.S2s cattle in 0SS

DAIRY
HINTS
Reasons for Dairy sIIo.

A. @. Baer, head Of the dairy
department at Oklahoma A. and
N. college. gives as reasons for
q silo on dairy farm:
1. More feed can be stored in
a given space in form of silage
than in form of fodder or hay.
2. A smaller loss of food ma
terial when a crop Is made into
sllage.
8. Corn sIlage is a better feed
than corn fodder.
4. An acre Of corn or kafir
can be placed into a silO at
less cost than the same area
when husked and shredded.
5. Crops can be put in the
silo during weather which could
not be utilized for curing fodder
or hay.
6. More stock can be kept on
given area Of land when silage
Is the basis of a ration.
Z. Less waste in feeding sill
age than fodder.
8. Silage is very palatable.
8. Silage, like other succulent
feeds. has beneficial effect
upon the digestive organs.
10. Silage is the cheapest and
best form in which a succulent
feed can be provided In the win

II. Silage can be used for sup.

ly than can soiling crops. be-
cause 1t requires less labor and
cattle like silage better.
IL. Converting corn or kafir
crops into silage clears the land
and leaves 1t ready for another

TO ENFORCE DRY LAW.
Chief Executive Says Conditions Of
Enforcement SAVIOR Of Nation
wide Scandal.

Washington.-President Harding, in
his annual message, delivered to Con-
gress in person, deals with nearly a
score of subjects, chief among them
prohibition, farm credits, the transpor-
tation problem, child labor and immi-
grafton.
President Harding tackled first the
farm problem, recommending credit
legislation by enlarging the powers of
the farm loan board to provide ample
agricultural and live stock "production
credits"
The executive announced his pur-
pose to invite the governors of the
states and territories to an carly con-
ference with the federal executive au-
thority with a view to adopting defi-
mite policies of national and state CO.
operation In administering the prohi-
bition laws. He says the day is un-
likely to come when the prohibition
amendment will be repealed and that
the nation should adopt It's course ac-
cOrdingly.
He warned those who evade the pro-
hibition law they are undermining the
moral fiber Of the republic.
He characterized the present en-
forcement as "a nationwide scandal"
and "the most demoralizing factor of
our national life"
More extended credit for the farm
ers is strongly urged by the executive,
who declares that the very proof Of
helpfulness already given is the strong
est argument for the permanent estab-
lishment of widened credits. He says
the farm loan bureau may well have
its powers enlarged to provide ample
farm production credits, as well as en-
larged land credits.
More Credit for Farmers.
Two constitutional amendments are
proposed. One would give Congress
authority over child labor and the 9TH
er would restrict the issue of tax-eX-
empt securities, which are declared to
be drying up the sources Of federal
taxation and encouraging unproductlve
and extravagant expenditures by states
ana mumclpailueS.
Registration of Aliens.
Enactment Of legislation providing
for registration of aliens and for more
thorough examination of emigrants at
the ports of embarkatiOn is urged. The
President says there is "recrudes-
cence of hyphenated Americanism
which we thought to have been
stamped out when we committed the
nation, life and soul to the World
War" and adds that advocates of rev.
olution are abusing the hospitality of
American shores, Finding their delud-
ed followers among those who take on
the hnbilaments of an American with
out knowing an American soul"
Registration of aliens, the President
adds, will enable the nation to guard
against abuses in immigration, check
Ing the undesirables whose irregular
coming is his first violation of the law
and, at the same time, VIII facilitate
the needed AmericaniZlng OF those
who mean to enroll as citizens.
Dealing with foreign affairs, Mr..
Harding tells Congress that american
relations are not only free from every
threatening cloud, but the country has
contributed its 'larger influence to-
ward making marked conflicts less
likely.

conference, to the recent Tacna-Arica
conference and to the Central Amer

Tho d.sdain Of the English language

tom for centuries to impose the Ian
Guage OF the conqueror upon the con-
qucred, but as no such relationship
has existed between the United States
and Porto Rico 1t was thought that in
time English would work its way ir-
respectively into tho islands. Such has
not been the case, however, and there
is doubt now that under the prevailing
tactics another generation will find the
language of America spoken in this,
the nearest of our i,sular possessions.

islands is almost Elizabethan in its

is puzzling at first to Americans, but
in a day or two it is easily picked up,
and there is no difficulty thereafter.
TIE accent really is no greater than
exists between an American living on
Cape Cod and one living in soutAcrn
Alabama.
The Virgin islanders explain their
speaking English to the fact that the
cities of the island always have been
tiading ports, and as most of their
trade was with English vessels the
language of the merchantmen grew up
20 the exclusion of Danish and French.
