Bio Saving On Livestock

County agents, with assistance OF
A. l.. Jordan, marketing specialist, d.
vision of Extension, assisted farmars IN
marketing i6S carloads Of livestock In
eluding cattle, hogs, sheep and lambs,
with gross sales amounting to SOD
223l1 at saving OF $45,0S61o to the
farmers who consigned the livestock
u these shipments. The cOnsignors
were small farmers who needed this
help. These savings to these farmers
represented the profits they would
have had to pay to local buyers had
they sold them at home instead Of
shipping to terminal markets. The
saving Is based on actual bids made by
lotal dealers on the corresponding
grades Of livestock either at the time
II was being assembled, or after II
was loaded into the car. 1t Is a we'll
known fact that the competition furn-
shed by cooperative shipping asso-
citation induces the local traders to
pay much higher prices for livestock.
This is probably due to the fact that
the county farm bureau office keeps the
daily market prices posted on a bulle-
Tin board where those visiting the of
hcc can get the market prices and
many farmers call over the telephone
and get the market prices for the day
from the secretary. The farmers there
by keep better posted on the daily
market and consequently the local
buyers have to pay closer to the mark
at in order to ret the business.

RUSSIA MAY PAY UP;
FARLEY PROBABLY SAVED
Soviet Representatives Agree to Pay
All Debts, With Certain Strings
on Agreement.

Genoa, April 22.-Both the Germans
and the Russians submitted their re-
plies 10 the allies demands. The Ger
man reply accepts the allied proposal
that the Germans take no further part
I'm the negotiations between the allies
and the Russians. but the reply does
not modify the effectiveness Of the
Russo-German reply.
The Russian reply accepts the allied
proposal for payment of Russia $
debts, due to foreigners, and the res
toration Of foreign property nationai-
ICED by Russia. in case the soviet
regime Is granted recognition by the
allied governments as a de jure state,
and is given adequate financial assist
ance.
The effect Of the two replies Is TO
continue the German and Russian par
ticipation in the work here, and thus
to bridge over the crisis which recent
ly threatened TO disrupt the confer
ence.
In principle. Russia agrees to estab-
lish a new currency on a gold basis
and also 10 create a banking system
similar to that existing in capitalistic
states.
With regard TO the question OF Rus
sian debts due TO foreigners and the
rights of foreigners TO the return of
their property or compensation for
damage, difficulty arises In reconeiling
the resolution Of the Cannes supreme
council, providing for nOninterference
In the sovereignty Of any state, with
the allied project Of restitution or
compensation for property. Allied
spokesman pointed out that everything
was nationaliZed In Russia, and
therefore II appeared that property
could not be restored In freehold.
Russia contended in reply that with
out violating it's sovereignty 1t could
not restore full ownership of property
to foreign nationals. In support of
their argument the soviet delegates
cited the abolition of slavery in the
United s ties. when there was no com
pensation TO slave owners. and the
American prohibition law. making no
compensation to owners Of liquor
stocks.
