Babeock Helped Thousands

Largely by the use of this test,
dairymen have been able to breed and
select animals of higher production
until now the average production of
the dairy COW is 200 pounds year in
stead of IS pounds as formerly. The
extensive use Of the Babcock test in
every state Of the Union has elimin-
ated thousands of Improbable cows.
The various breed associations rely
upon the results of its application,
and animals thus tested, or those
from tested dams, readily sell for an
increased value of 259d or more above
prices paid for similar animals of 9TH
erwise apparent equality. The Bah
cock test has definitely taken the

DAIRY PROGRESS IN u. S.

No one has bigger job nor q
greater responsibility than the mer
engaged in the science of agriculture
This is the keynote struck by Brown
ing Warren of Idaho in his presenta-
ton which won first prize in the Alpha
Zeta essay contest at the University
of Wisconsin.
Writing upon the subject of "What
has Scientific Agriculture Contribut-
ed to Community Life and Welfare"
Warren credits the coming of the
steam engine, the spinning jenny, the
binder, the threshing machine, the
various multiple hitch farm units, to
application of science to agriculture.
Invention Reduces Drudgery
These devices and machines, he ar
CUES, have been produced to eliminate
the drudgery and long hours of the
old system of farming. They have
made increased production possible
with less effort, thereby making avail
able more time for recreation, mutual
development, and religious devotion.
Warren sees improvement in dairy
production made very largely through
the work of the scientist.
"In attempting to increase produc-
ton, scientists" he declares, "applied
scientific knowledge with the result
that the world at large has been bene-
fitted beyond estimate. The grand
old chemist, Dr. Stephen NJ. Babcock,
of the University of Wisconsin, found
that one of the most desirable ingre-
dents in milk could be accurately de-
termined by the use of the centrifugal
machine which would separate the fat
from the other materials. This de-
vice invented in 1890 and given to the
world free, IS unquestionably the
greatest single contribution to the inn
proyement of dairy cattle in all his
tory. By its simple application to-
gether with the scales and the milk
pail. the most accurate knowledge of
the animals production can be ascer-
tanned

 By CAROLYN VANCE

 Washington. November 1s.-When the doorman swings wide the portals of Congress Monday he will probably find a group of i've women wanters" sitting tensely upon the cold, inhos- pitable steps hugging their pet bills | to their bosoms.
 l Fourteen national women's organf- zations are primed to fight for de- sired legislation at the special ses- l sion. The women are not approach ling Congress in as threatening a manner, perhaps, as they would have | If even one of the sex had beaten male legislator In the late election. But they are not one whit less deter mined to have what they want in the matter of legislation. Each of the IA organizations nurses not only a pet tbill, but also a formidable general program.
 "Oh, pshaw." a very much lobbied and woman ridden legislator is apt to remark, let's give em what they want and let it go at that" But he has not considered the consequences.
 Bright and early the next morning there would be brand new set of bills as persistentiy supported as those that went before.

THOUSANDS YEARLY BY TAX LOOPHOLE Many Sales of Stocks, Bonds and Real Estate Made Un-
 der GuiSe of Exchanges
 Free From Duty
 By HARDEN CoLFAx EpeciaI Correspondent of The Ags-Herald (Copyright, i922. by The Age-Heraldp
 Washington. November 1s.-Con- Eress probably will be asked by the treasury department within the next four weeks to make change Tn the tax law under which the govern ments income would be increased by slOO, 900 900 or more annually.
 The proposed change concerns Section 20g of the law, a portion or which would have to be repealed if the change is made. Under that section as it stands present thou sands of sales of stocks, sonds, real estates and other property are eN- pected to have been made under the guise of exchanges absolutely free of tax on the profits involved. It IS difficult to measure the amount o1 income thus lost to he government, but unofficial observers place 1t at from S75,OO0.o05 to $l25,ooo,Ooo' an nually.
 Both the bureau of internal rev enue. the tax collecting branch or the federal government, and the tax simplification board have had the section under scrutiny for some time. In addition, Secretary Mellon is re- ported as having a lively interest personally in the subject and may make the proposed recommendation fin. his forthcoming annual report The section provides:
 Many Sales Made
 On any exchange of property, real personal or mixed, for any other such nroperty, no gain or loss shall De recognized unless the property has d realizabie market " ue: but even II inc nroperty has a readily realizable market value. no gain or loss shall he recogized when any such property is exchanged for property or ike kind of use.

accumulation of disputes. What the
United States government is asking
Mexico to sign is a reciprocal treaty of
friendship which will cover all the
fundamentals in controversy today and
make an enduring settlement-a treaty
which nobody on either side of the
Rio Grande can afford to disregard.
No Military Intervention.
The bugaboo of military intervention

part of Americans in Mexico has kept
relations between the two countries un-
steady 1t is sought to remove once and
for all these factors so that every Next

equitable treatment at Washington.
There are of course. many persons in
the United States who feel that presi-
dent Obregon's record is not of the best.
They have been trying to persuade the
American government that recognition
should be withheld. And it is explained
by those in authority that the situation
is viewed on an impersOnal basis for the
agreement is to be between the peoples
of the two countries and signed by
whatever administration is in supreme
authority at the time. Recognition was
accorded the Carranza government in the
past when it had much less control of
the situation than the Obregon govern
ment has today.
VIII Exchange Ambassadors.
From the American government s
viewpoint. the question of recognition is
incidental. If Mexico and the United
States shall sign the pending treaty of
amity and commerce. recognition will
automatically go into effect. The sign

WASHINGTON. April 25.-NIexico
and the United States are getting closer
together.
Out of the mass of misunderstanding
which have characterized the relations
between the two countries there will
emerge soon an agreement greater in its
significance than merely the extension of
recognition by one government to an
other--a treaty of permanent friendship
and good will.
SO much emphasis has been placed
upon the points of controversy of the
past that an understanding of what the
Harding administration has been striv-
ing to achieve I'M the Mexican situation
has unfortunately been impossible on
either side of the international bound
airy.
The problem can be best understood
when it is explained that so far as sat
isfying the requirements of recognition.
few people will doubt that the Obregon
government has brought order out of
chaos and that substantial progress has
been made toward Il return OF nOrmalcE.
If it were a matter of according recOgni
ton to u regime which deserved it.
President Obregon would be recognized
instantly. There is the friendliest dis
position toward him and his admins
tration.
Working in Broad Way.
But President Harding and Secretary
Hughes are endeavOring to place the
whole matter on a broader plane than
the settlement of affairs of the moment.
They want a settlement for all times

Administrations change in the United

ferent methods of handling this are now in vogue. One popular method IS to suspend the aerial above the top of the car, from some projection in front to another in the rear, and con- meeting with the receiving set on the rear seat. This serves pretty well, but is has certain definite drawbacks which are obvious.
 A second method of handling the aerial problem is by the loop or coil type. This consists primarily of box frame of some type, on which are wound turns of wire. The coil should be made so that it can rotate around an axis, and the wires should lie in the same vertical plane. A coil aerial may be placed over the back of the rear seat.
 The two aerials described above are intended to be used even when the car is in motion. If the car owner does not want to listen in while his vehicle is moving, his problem is very much simplified. Instead of having a

Looking over these figures, from source that cannot be disputed, no one who is not prejudiced by some per sonal reason can reject the claim of Boulder Canyon as the proper place for a dam. It has the greatest po- tentiality of them all, and when built will stand for all time. It is safe guarded by the granite walls that rise to a night of 250O feet above it, and the soundings have shown granite bed rock across the bed of the stream. At the river level it is but 265 feet be- tween walls and at a night of 600 feet it is not more than 700 feet, which is the narrowest canyon on the river having impounding capacity.
 We are for Arizona, but not in the way of handing out to the power fel- lows this potential project, nor are we willingly listening to the screeds of fellows who know nothing what ever about the possibilities of the river from any standpoint.

SOME MORE ARGUMENTS FOR
 BOULDER CANYON DAM SITE.

reclamation areas and the necessity for more water that it would take more than 100 years to fill Boulder Canyon so that it would come under the condition quoted by MT. Grand. And on the other hand, the silt prob lem is so remote from present day consideration that dozen generations will have passed away before notice of it will have to be taken.
 Head to, come--GAL TWO
 The concern of MT. Grand and in- terests in and around the Salt river valley favors the attitude of the Southern California Edison, one of the most powerful power corporations of California. This concern has been working in Glen Canyon the past year and has swung a large number of people to its view, giving out the species argument that if private own ership obtains the state will be largely benefited through the taxation of the plants and distributing lines. But the corporation does not impress the peo- pie with the other phase of the case in which higher power rates will dom mate, and that the people will have to return to them more than fourfold the tax burden. And right to day we do not believe the Southern California Edison is sincere in its proposition to dam Glen Canyon in the event that a permit is obtained to do so from the federal government. We are of the opinion that all this work is subter- fuge, the company trying to eventual ly obtain the Boulder site.
 In the main We are not favorable to the Swing bill. Its purpose, of course, is to build flood control dam tbat would give California and other sections a better water system, but at the same time turn the power over to the big Pacific coast power cor porations for distribution to the peo- pie. We believe in the federal gov- handling the whole problem. It can handle the power just as read fly as the water, and with the low cost to the consumer, without a middle in- terest handling this giant project, our mines and every line of endeavor in the state would receive a great im- petus.
 That those who are taking an in

permanent aerial, he can erect one anywhere that he cares to bring his car to halt. In this case the aerial is very much the same as the one he has running into his house. About 100 feet of copper wire are used. The wire is carried out from the car and attached to the trunk of a convenient tree, and the set is ready to listen in. Some operators attach a stout cord to the end of the wire and tie the end of the cord to a stone. By throwing the stone over the limb of tree at a good height from the ground they pull the wire into place and have a good, aerial, capable of giving excel lent results. A second wire is strung off along the roadside or into the nearest field to give the ground. A metal plate immersed in a stream forms an excellent ground.
 The question of ground" must al ways be considered in installing a radio set, and the sets which are in- tended to enable the owner to receive messages while the car is in motion, are grounded to the frame of the car.
 Radio receiving sets may be of two kinds, the so-called Crystal" sets, with which no outside current source is required, and the vacuum tube sets, which call for set of dry cells and a storage battery. The storage battery on the car may be utilized for this service, so that few dry cells for the high voltage battery are all that are needed to make the vacuum tube set practical application on the motor car.

RADIO SET ON MOTOR CAR NOW

By Alexander Johnston Editor of MoToR

Radio on the motor car is already an accomplished fact. Receiving sets are now produced especially designed for motor service, and it is possible for the niotorist and his guests to en- joy monday concert as they lunch by the roadside.
 A number of different methods of installing radio on the motor car have been resorted to since this new branch of the science of communication be- came a national enthusiasm. The first consideration in installing a radio re- ceiving set is the aerial. Several diff
