STATE WEIGHING STILL
IN FORCE IN ST. PAUL
Court Order Keeps Federal
Government Interference
Out of Control
Farm P',reau News Service)

- ~
State weigh ~. Ihe
almost unanimousr@ 70 live
stock producers Of tn i, is still
in force. All supervisory work of
the state railroad and warehouse
commission is going on as usual, in
spite Of the fact that the federal
law has been held constitutional, and
the United States department of JUS
tice has declared the federal law en-
tirely supersedes state control.
Under this ruling, state weighing
would be knocked out, and all state
supervision, which is supported by
the weighing fees, would be destroy
ed. r.. .,s.%% ,...s r.
But the state has .check-mated the
federal authorities. A temporary
court restraining order prevents the
federal government from interior
ing in any way with the enforcement
of state supervision and weighing. !:
Meanwhile, Minnesota farmers are
urging the agricultural committee of
the lower house of congress to get
behind a pending bill designed to
prevent any interference with state
supervision and weighing by the fed
eral government. County Farm Bu-
reau directors and officers in every
important livestock producing coun-
ty in the state have voted in favor
of the bill.
Two other cases involving the
right of the public to supervise dis
tribution of its food also are mark
ing time. The courts have yet to de-
eide whether the state has the right
to enforce reductions in livestock
commission rates and charges for
hay and bedding on the South St.
Paul market. The railroad and
warehouse commission evera>l
months ago ordered drastic reduc-
tons; the orders have been tied up
IN the courts ever since on appeals.
In the meantime, the private COM
mission companies were directed by
court order to set aside in trust
fund the difference between the COM
mission rates they charge and the
rates ordered by the commission. The
;tockyards company was given or
ders to set aside in a similar fund
the difference between prevailing
charges for hay and bedding and
those ordered by the state.
The trust fund covering the diff
ference in commission charges
amounts to more than 100000, ac-
| cording to officials in charge Of state
regulation.

material could be raised with econ

com country, of course, il is hardly
advisable to raise Russian Suniiowers
to the exclusion of corn for silage pur-
poses, the main reason being the pro-
Efficacy of growth and the consequent
expense Of siloing. Sunflowers IN an
D irrigated region, It has been found, do
not handle cheaply. On the other
hand. in high attitudes where the
growth is not SO dense, siloing can be
carried on, perhaps, with as much
economy as with corn.
In high attitudes IT is proper to take
advantage OF the succulence provided
by a crop which has proven TO be cas-
iIy grown, eagerly taken by the cattle
and productive of appreciable gains.
The differential between the product
of the corn country and the sunfiower
material must be taken into consider
alton. Bearing that differential close
ly IN mind, il is proper to assert that
suntlowcr silage has its place in the
finishing process of this territory.

SOAK GARDEN THOROUGHLY
But NOT TOO FREQUENTLY

Agricultural College News-Notes-
Vegetables contain from s5 to 90
per cent Of water so it is very neces-
sary that they receive plenty Of mois-
ture. The soil in which the plants are
growing should be moist at all times,
the plants should never become wilted
or check for lack of water. This con-
dition is best maintained by thoro but
not too frequent irrigation. The soil
should be wet to a good depth and
then not irrigated again until needed.
this causes the plants TO send their
roots deeply into the soil, and econo-
miZes the use of water. Frequent
light irrigations induce a shallow root
system, so that plants are much more
easily affected by dry weather.
Water should be applied by running
il in burrows as close TO the plants as
is convenient. Except on some sandy
soils, "A fairly small stream of water
is preferable. and it should be allowed
TO run for six TO twelve or more hours,
depending on the character of soil and
other conditions. Where a garden is
irrigated with a lawn sprinkler, the
tendency is always to give too little
water. The soil appears to be wet
when in reality it is not. If this meth
cd is used the garden should be thor
oily soaked and not sprinkled again
for week. Small sprinklings every
day or so will cause the plants to be
shallow rooted.

NOT HARMFUL To
CHICKENS AND GAME BIRDS

Agricultural College News Notes
That chickens and the wild gallinac-
eOus birds are practically immune TO
strychnine poisoning is the informant
ion that comes from DR.. A. X Fisher.
in charge of economic Investigations
for the United States Biological Sur
yey. This information is of interest
wherever poisoned grain is being used
for the destruction OF prairie dogs and
other rodent pests. DIR. Fisher IS
quoted in the Literary Digest as fol-
lows:
Chickens and the Wild gallinaoeous
birds seem to be practically immune
from the effects Of strychnine Just
why they have this immunity is 4
point to be learned Extensive field
operations and operations carried on
in the laboratory Of the Canadian gov
ernment, the Biological Survey, and
the public Health Service show that
a quail weighing not over five or six
ounces will eat with impunity enough
strychnine poisoned grain 10 kill sguir-
rels weighing in the aggregate twenty
pounds. In our extensive operations
IN the Western States against iniuri-
Gus rodents, we have distributed over
1000 tons tl65 carloads) Of poisoned
grain. Although the assistants carry
ing on this work are skilled in finding
dead animals, up to the present time
we have been unable to find one single
game bird destroyed by our operat-
ions Il may be of interest to you 10
know that we have further safeguard
ed the birds by using barley and oats
instead of wheat as a vehicle. At the
present time this grain is rescreened
when poisoned, might be taken by
small seed-eaters."
