The goats at first showed some hos
tility toward their charges Now they
accept the two orphans as matter of
course, although they show little affec-
ton.
In striking contrast is the solicitude
of a monkey mother in a nearby cage
for her baby's digestion. Although he
is getting to be husky youngster, the
mother still refuses to allow him to eat
peanuts offered by visitors. When he
slips by her and gets one in his mouth,
she grabs him, boxes his ears and
forces open his mouth, removing the
peanut. Then she gives him a good
scolding.

The proposition of Postmaster Gen
eral Work to have the government
borrow money sufficient to erect a
building for every postoffice has been
approved by President Harding. The
money could be borrowed at per
cent. 1t is estimated that in 10 years
such policy would not only place the
government in possession of all build
ings it used for postoffice purposes
but would have in the meantime
saved the taxpayers 00,000,000.

THE FARMER

The department of agriculture says
the farmers should make 1850 ,OOO,-
600 more in 1922 than they made in
1921. Taking the nation as a whole
this may be true, but farm prosperity
is 'sspotty;" the troubles of the potato
men show that all is not sunshine.
The farmer, however, has had his
way in congress. The tariff bill will
go to the president with most of the
high duties included. 1t will bring

JENKINS SAYS REASONS
ARE "a FEEBLE EXCUSE''

"a feeble excuse" was the way
Newton Jenkins, counsel for the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
characterized the reasons given to
the public by the Chicago board Of
trade for refusal to vote seat to
g. H. Cunningham, president of the
U. S. Grain Growers Sales Co. At
torney Jenkins said:
mr. Cunningham in his applica
ton for membership agreed to abide
by all the rules. Representatives of
the board of trade have proclaimed
for years that they would welcome
the farmers into membership on the
exchanges if they would abide by
the rules. Mr.. Cunningham's appli-
cation complied with all the require
ments The action now of the Chi
cago Board of Trade does not square
with public statements made by its
leading members all over this coun-
try.
"The truth is that the present adj
ministration of the board of trade does
not want the organized farmers on the
exchanges. 1t would have been more
self-respecting had they frankly adj
mitted it rather than to take refuge
behind such feeble excuse as that
published in the press today"
On November 81 the counsel 70,
the Chicago Board of Trade made
motion before the supreme court tc
advance the hearing on the case test
ing the constitutionality of the new
Capper-Tincher act regulating grain
exchanges and giving farmers cooper
alive associations the right to operate
thereon

Kansas Senator Says Legislation
Is in No Sense Class Feeling
Crops Nations Basis.

Senator Arthur Capper, of Kansas,
chairman of the Farm Bloc in the
senate, interviewed by the Farm
Bureaus press representative in
Washington, says:
THE legislation which must be
enacted in the near future to help
cure the agricultural situation is in
no sense class feeling or class legis-
lation. Agriculture is the only foun-
dation upon which the well-being of
state and nation can securely rest.
Congress must finish the constructive
program it has so we'll started in
the farming industrys behalf.
1T must put through the complete
rural credit plan to provide farmers
and stockmen with an adequate
financial system.
1T must increase the loan limit.
1T must reduce freight charges.
1T must repeal Section 15-A ana
other Objectionable provisions Of the
Cummins-E sch Transportation act.
ut must carry out the policy for
better system of marketing.
ut must put the development of
the Muscle Shoals project in the
hands of Henry Ford.
ut must pass the Truth-in- Fabric
bill
1T must pass the voigt Filled-Milk
bill.
1T must pass constitutional
amendment prohibiting tax-exsmpt
securities.
1T must bring about still further
reductions in tax burdens nj still
further economies in the admiulstra-
ton of government.
1T msst make undisturbed sur
pluses and stock dividends pay their
share toward the maintenance of
government.
ut must do whatever this nation
can do to promote European recov-
cry and the restoration of a foreign
market for the surplus products of
our farms and factories.
II don't think we shall get any
where in our effort to restore con-
fidence in government by piling more
than SO million dollars year on the
public's back in the form of a ship
subsidy, in addition to its present
burden"

POULTRY

Lazy hens in Spokane county flocks
are to face the chopping block. The
poultry committee of the county farm
bureau recently decided the soup
kettle is the only medicine for hen
that eats, but refuses to lay. Under
the plan worked out two men in each
community will be paid for culling
flock, after they have passed the re,
quired tests.
q. r. Wells, owner and manager OF
Henacres ranch, near Prosser, re-
ceived the largest poultry order on
record there, calling for 10000 baby
chicks, $1,000 cash accompanying the
order.
Spokane will have the best poultry
show in it's history in January, B. F.
Mitchell, superintendent of the show
and one of the officers of the Spo-
kane Poultry Breeders association,
predicted recently. Birds from cen.
trail Washington and the Coast prob
ably will be entered. More than 1900
entries are expected
Following a culling demonstration
carried on in Mason county by w. D..
Buchanan, poultry specialist of the
state college, As hens which were
culled out layed only two eggs in
seven days. The remaining 100 hens
laid 315 eggs during the same week.
This indicates the benefit from elimi-
mating the poor producers and thus
improving the flock. In the above in
stance the average lay of the hens
left in the flock was increased per
cent, which will amount to approx
mately $50 for the entire year.
