HARDING bALKSAT
 ANFOR DUMPING
 SHOALS UPON HIM
Holds That Problem Is One For Congress and That Body Must Not Pass Buck
 to Administration
By HUGH ". ROBERTS Washington Bureau. The Age-Hernld,
 soc Davidson Batidhag

Washington, May 15.-(Special. J. President Harding is understood to have taken position today against the plan of Representative Julius Kahn of California, chairman of the House committee on military affairs, to dump the Muscle Shoals problem on the executive branch of the gov ernment.
 It Is understood to be the position one for the solution of Congress and that Congress would be recant to it's duty if beca-- of difficulties in- volved or embarrassment incident to the approach of the elections II should pass the buck to the admin istration.
 Kahn to Insist
 At the same time Mir. Kahn lets it be understood that he will insist on his program of putting through Congress a resolution referring Mus cle Shoals and the various offers for the Governments properties there to a commission to be composed of John W. Weeks. Secretary of War Her
 
 and Henry C. Wallace. Secretary of Agriculture. II is understood that the secretaries have expressed them selves as willing to assume the bur den if 1t be submitted to them by Congress MT. Kahn points out that there could be little objection on the port of those with fair minds to an enlistment of the services Of Weeks. Hoover and Wallace. The former, he argued would look out for the in- terests of the government from the standpoint of war; Hoover for the interest of the government from the standpoint Of navigation and Wal lace for the interest of the govern ment from the standpoint of agri- culture.
 Favored By Two
 It is said that advocates of the Ford bid should have little objection because of the intimation that Hoov- CT and Wallace look with favor on the offer of the Detroit manufactur- CT. Furthermore, If indications count for anything, Ford's prospects with such 8 commission controlling final disposition Of Muscle Shoals would be just as bright as they are today with his offer in the hands of Congress. There Is only one mem- Der of Congress, Representative F. B. Almon of the Eigth district. who persists in a belief that the Ford of- fer will be accepted by Congress and he doesn't know what if any con sessions Ford will make In com pliance with the demands of the com mittees considering the bids.
 Just how insistent the President will be in his stand against pass ing of the buck by Congress remains Of course to be seen. Today, how ever, he adheres to the idea that the problem Is essentially one for Con- gress and that 1t is the duty of Con gress to reject the Ford or any oth- CT offer if the government is not given fair return for its investment and Is not otherwise protected by the terms of such offers.
 If the President can be dissuaded from his present attitude there seems a fair chance for the success of the idea of the California repre- sentative.

Two claims were operated on the
Middle Ford of the Chulitna River
last winter and Mr.. Guerin said he
understands the operators expect to
resume work this winter. Little was
done except first development work
last year.
''The telegraph operator at Broad
Pass told me the coal which came
from these two claims was the best
he had ever used at the station,
said Mr.. Guerin ''Prospectors on
the West Fork OF the Chultna, 20
miles from Broad Pass. claim the coal
they use is the best in the country
which is a fair indication that the
grade is good all through the dis

''There is some prospecting being

beetle after his kind and the grass
hopper after his kind, but all other
flying creeping things which have
four feet shall be an abomination
unto you" The agricultural ex-
pertinent station at. Bozeman tells
US that grasshoppers can be pre-
served and dried and that they make
fine feed for hens in the winter and
are so transformed into fresh eggs.
They do not hint that they might
take the place of ham and bacon as
human food. Yet we know that the
advice Of Moses regarding the
grasshopper was followed out in
ON countries. In certain parts of
Africa they dry them and pound
them into meal and eat them. And
we find it recorded in the new tes-
lament that Saint John the Baptist,
who preached the coming Of Christ,
lived in the desert on locusts and
wild honey. Notwithstanding this
sanity example, we do not expect
to make popular the grasshopper
diet. The feathered chickens might
enjoy it, but the flapper kind would
surely turn up their nose at grass
hopper soup OF porridge or pud-
dings with grasshoppers stuck in
them like raisins. But we almost
forgot that this is a Sunday sermon
and ought to have some moral to it.
And the fact is that we don't know
what sort of moral to hang on it
like a tail, unless it is that the
grasshoppers are a good deal like
our public servants. They are get
ting nor numerous all the time.
They are coming out after office
in crowds, and they eat up a good
deal of our substance in taxes for
their support. We realize that this
is rather a forced moral, but we
quite forgot to secure a proper tail
when we started out to write about
the grasshopper. The pesky insect
flew away with our moral, or ate
it up.

have made the farming operations Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Wyman successful.
Skinned milk is fed to the calves
and chickens and is found to be a high
ly satisfactory feed. On a ration of
skinned milk and grain the chickens
do better than an average flock and
lay well during the winter when eggs
are highest The young calves are
taught early to drink skinned milk
and at the age of three weeks are hv-
ing on a straight diet of this. They
are fed this milk three times a day
and as 500 as they are able to eat
solid food they are given all the oats
and oat hay they can eat. Three feeds

%lieves. to keep the calves growing and
in the best condition. Some of the
young calves are sold for veal and veal

products. brings top prices. Oats and
oat hay are staple feeds for other stock
and his cows and horses are all in ex-
cellent condition and show plainly the
results of good care.
Good Management Always
Although COW and chickens have
been largely responsible for the sue
cess of Mr.. and Mrs. Wyman, good
management uaS ueSu Dv NO means the
least important factor in their success
I'VE have always made it a point to
keep one years reserve Of cash and
grain on hand" said Mr.. Wyman. Just
before the war we wanted to build a
new house, but decided to leave our
reserve intact for a while. In 1919
we needed this reserve and it was this
which enabled us to live through that
year without selling our stock"
