FARM BUREAU CLASHES
WITH RAILWAY ON RATE
Farm. Bureau Federation Re-
sists Attempt to Raise Rates
on Coarse Grain
Farm Bureau News Service


Washington, June 8.-The Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation has
protested to the Interstate Commerce
Commission against re-opening the
hay and grain rate case, in which the
commission ordered rate reductions
averaging 16 per cent. The reduc-
tions took effect in January. They
established rates on corn and coarse
grain 10 per cent lower than the
new rates on wheat. Now the rail-
roads have asked the commission to
abolish this differential between
wheat and coarse grain in the ter
ritory west Of the Mississippi river
and east Of Ell Paso and Denver.
The coarse grain differential in
wolves approximately $6,ooo,ooo and
lit is this amount that the American
Farm Bureau Federation is trying to
save the shippers of hay and grain.
. It is the position of the American
Farm Bureau Federation that rates
on coarse grain we're generally lower
than on wheat throughout this ter
ritory prior to federal control and
that the commissions decision re-
stored. the old relationship.
/ St, Paul, June San organized
fight will be made against any in
crease in freight rates on coarse
grain, according to officials of the
Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation.
il. F. Reed, president Of the fedora
ton, has taken steps to line up the
state Farm Bureaus in the corn pro-
ducing territory to oppose the aboli-
ton of the rate differential. He is
working with C. w. Hunt, president
of the Iowa Farm Bureau Federation,
and head of the Midwest Farm Bu-
reau Conference, to prepare evidence
to resist the increase. \

OHIO RIVER HAS ENORMOUS DIS.
CHARGE

IN volume Of water Ohio River II
the main tributary Of the Mississippi.
Its average discharge, according 10 the
Geological Survey, Is about 100000 Gu
bic feet per second, which Ii much more
than the discharge Of 81. Lawrence
River at Ogdensburg, N. Y, although
the drainage area Of the 81. Lawrence
IL nearly twice that Of the Ohio. The
maximum flow Of the Ohio Is appoxi-
mately 100000 cubic feet per second,
about 30 times the minimum flow.
A comparison Of records Of the flow
OF Ohio River with those Of the upper
Mississippi and Missouri shows that
although It's drainage area In but one
third that OF the combined Mississippi
and Missouri Its average and low-wat-
or flow In 1.3 times as great as their
combined flow, and It's maximum flow
Ia Id times ~ great. This fact Is
accounted for by the greater rain-fall
In the Ohio basin and by the general
character Of the region.
