COW TESTING
ASSN REPORT
No REASON WHY FARMERS
CANNOT EXPECT
BETTER YEAR

The third annual report of the Wau-
sau-Marathon Cow Testing associa-
lion was issued last week by Gerald
Jenny, tested of the association, who
left the latter part of last week for
Milwaukee and who will attend the
College of Agriculture this next year
bat Madison.
''The year 1919 marks the beginning
|Of new pages of dairy progress in

port Prior to that time people of
the state knew little or nothing of
the many excellent dairy herds in this
county, although it was a generally
conceded opinion among dairymen
that Marathon county produced an
Improbable portion of the American
cheese manufactured in Wisconsin.
Since that year, however, largely
Through the untiring efforts of our
county agents, association testing has
become definitely established as a
vital factor in the progress of Mara
thon county's greatest asset-dairy-
ing. Since that year many dairy herds
have, through the intelligent applica-
ition of feeding, wedding and breeding
systems, so raised the standard of the
dairy COW that dairying is recognized
to-day as the major industry in the
heart of Wisconsin's cloverbelt.
1.-THE Marathon county farmer has
much to be grateful for" the report
continues. Glover, timothy and the
small grain crops have been eycel-
llent, while corn is receiving a late
boom. In July of this year cheese
sold for seventeen to eighteen cents
IA pound, as compared to twelve and
thirteen cents pound year ago. Is
there any reason why the farmer

COAL PRICE PLAN
OPENS BIC FIGHT
Vigorous Opposition in Both
Houses to Administrators
Measure.
SENATORS STRONGLY OPPOSED
Leaders Express Doubt of Their Abil-
ty to Get the Sill Through the
Senate-Hoover Goes Ahead
With Plans.


Washington, Aug. 29.-vigorous OPP
position in both houses of congress de
'eloped to the administration bills for
oal price regulation in the present
uel emergency.
Senate opposition was so pronounced
when the CumminS bill was considered
before the senate Interstate commerce
committee that even administration
leaders expressed doubt of their ability
to get the measure through the senate.
The bill was ordered reported without
a record vote, after various senators
had manifested strong disapproval OF
it's terms.
Opposition to the Winslow bill in the
house was voiced at the hearing before
the committee on interstate and for
eign commerce. After several hours of
examining witnesses the committee
considered the bill in executive ses-
sion. 1t later WAS reported out ia
vorably.
Hoover Goes Ahsad With Plans.
Meanwhile the administration
through Secretary of Commerce Hoov-
er and the interstate commerce COM
mission, is going ahead with plans to
meet the emergency with temporary
measures pending legislation and with
the expectation that the bills before
congress will receive favorable consid-
GRAFTON.
Secretary Hoover appeared before
the house committee as administration
spokesman in Urging the necessity of
the proposed price control legislation.
The present coal emergency, he said,
must continue in all events for 60 days
and possibly six months and that
eventually the government may be
forced to set up local zones" in order
to perfect distribution. He added there
was no prospect of a complete shut
down of industry as during the war to
conserve fuel.
"The need of bituminous coal during
the winter win be 100000 tons a
week." the secretary declared. 1.-THE
movement to the upper lakes is now
| 100000 tons behind and the only
| hope of saving the situation in the
! Northwest is to perceptibly increase
shipment there within the next few
weeks We are 36,000,OO0 tons behind
in anthracite production"
No Sign of Settlement.
Hope of an Immediate settlement of
the anthracite coal strike was expected
by Senator Pepper of Pennsylvania
upon his return from Philadelphia
after holding conferences with John L.
Lewis, head of the coal miners organi-
cation, and Samuel d. Warmer, chair
man of the anthracite operators poll
cies committee.
1t is understood that the two points
on which the parties to the contro-
versy are split are those of arbitration
and the wage scale. Lewis is reported
as being opposed to anything that
savors of compulsory arbitration on
the one hand, and holding out for an
extension of the pre-strike wage until
| April /, 1924, instead of 1923. as first
proposed. Operators are believed TO
be unwilling to extend the wage scale
for so long a period, but it is Senator
Peppers opinion that they will get to-
gether on this and the other points in
dispute.
