WHAT BUDGET SYS.
TEN HAS SAVED

Many of the appropriations for the
federal fiscal year ending June 80
next had been tentatively or actually
made before the new budget system
was in working order. Perhaps this
is one of the reasons why the state
ment on what Budget Director Dawes
has been able to accomplish to date
will not be as clear as it might be to
some. A new system projected into
the business of government after a
beginning has been made under ano
ther system is not only handicapped
in achieving results, but is at disad
vatage in attempting to analyze such
results as are achieved.
Total government expenditures
will, it is stated, show a decline of
about 81 500, 100000 from the figures
of last year. However, with the in
evitable decline in the scope of gov
ernmental activities considerable
part of this reduction was also inev-
liable. This total is made up of re-
auctions in multitude of items, and,
classifying these items, it is found
that $907 100000 may be separated
from tn grand total as attributable to
reductions made in expenditures I'M
der executive control. How much of
this second total may it legitimately
be assumed would not have been saved
but for the operation of the new
budget plan? The question, of course,
is highly complex. Mr.. Dawes ex-
plains how scheme Of accounting
which regards as expenditures" sums
which are really loans, advanced I'M
der the railroad act or placed at the
disposition of the revived War FL
nance Corporation, tends to compli-
cate the federal balance sheet. q This
is only one cause of complication in
the accounting HoweverJ ,subjecting
again to analysis and classification the
items Of reduction in the 1907 100000
total, it is found that sum approx
mating $3.50, 100000 represents saw
ings for which the new department
presided over by Mr., Dawes may rea-
sonably claim the credit. Although
an approximation, it seems to have
been made with no little care and one
assurance is that it is probably an un-
reinstatement rather than overstate-
ment.
Just how has this sum been saved?
With the technique of saving, the
statement deals in a very general way.

Republican Congressman from Mis-
souri, are enjoying their perquisites
while they may. One of these is trav-
cling on government transports at an
expense to such congressman Of SIPS
day. Rep. w. o. Atkeson, Of the
Sixth district, has awaited himself Of
this privilege to make trip to Eu-
rope, ostensibly for the purpose of
studying labor and industrial condi-
tions there. Fear of criticism prob
ably prevented other Missourians from
making the trip although they were
none so circumspect during the Christ
mas holidays, when seven Of them Wis
tied Panama and various parts in the
West Indies.
Missouri postmasters named last
week We're: Walter E. Pearson, Clarks-
dale, and Ferd d. Lehmeyer, Bland.
The Department of Labor has sub
mitted a report designed to show a
marked decrease in unemployment for
Missouri. Statements are submitted
from department observers stationed
in six of the cities all claiming i'm
provement in the industrial situation
and expressing the hope that when
weather conditions permit the demand
for farm labor will wipe out unem-
ployment. One purpose of this, is to
combat the slogan, Harding times
and Hyde Taxes"
A pig census is being taken by the
Department of Agriculture in Mis-
souri, and other hog-raising states.
Card missionaries are being dis
tributed to farmers by the rural mail
carriers and when these are returned
to Washington accurate predictions
can be made of the pig crop for this
year. .u
Either Missouri farmers are pros
porous and are making few, demands
on their banks or the bankers of that
state are not awaiting themselves of
the opportunity to rediscount agri-
cultural loads through the War FL
nance Corporation. The last report
shows but $4,000 so rediscounted for
the state.

DID SEEM LIKE A PROBLEM
No Wonder Small Boy Was Disguised
When Ne Saw What His
- Chun1's Gift Was.

Mysterious things were happening
around the house. An addition to the
census report of Indianapolis was
expected, but Little Sonny didn't un-
derstand.
"We're going to have something
you'll love-" the mother said.
You're going to be tickled to death
with It," the father said.
Little Sonny didn't understand at
all, in fact he was so mystlfied that
he told his little pal next door about
1t.
whatever you get you've got to
divide" the interested pal insisted.
"Sure l WILL" said the generous
Sonny.
"When the baby finally came Little
Sonny and his pal were ushered in
for the first visit.
"a fine chance you've got to divide
that thing" the pal said disgustedly.

PRACTICAL FATTENiNG WAYS
Where Crates Are Used Little Space 10
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. 10 Not
Desirable.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Three methods of fattening poultry
are used In this country-pen fatten-
ing, crate fattening and machine cram
ming. The first two are the most COM
mon; the third Is used only where but
q few birds are to be fattened.
Pen fattening Is practiced by many
persons who do not have the time and
inclination to use other methods. The
essentials of pen fattening are quiet,
darkness, except at feeding time, and
plenty Of soft feed given at regular In
tervals, usually three times a day.
Birds may be kept in fiocks of 10 or ~,
but the sexes should be separated.
In crate fattenlng a few chickens
are kept In crates and fed from
trough. A crate feet long, Is inches
high, and 18 or 20 inches wide, Is suit
able and is large enough for dozen
birds. Sometimes the crate Is divided
into two or three compartments, -FOUR
to six birds being kept In each COM
partment. Little room Is desirable, FOR
the less exercise the birds have the
more readily will they fatten. If the
crate is to be left outdoors the top
should be covered. The sides should
be made of Stats about two inches
apart, so the birds can eat from the
trough which is hung just outside the
crate. The bottom of the crate should
be of stats about an inch apart, to per
NIT the droppIngs to fall through, or
dropping pans may be used and the
crates arranged in tiers. In indoor
feeding the crates should be put In a
well.ventilated room. Usually the
birds are fed three times day and are
allowed to eat for half an hour at d
time, when the uneaten feed Is re-
moved.
Crate and machine examining are de
scribed in Farmers Bulletin PSI, Is
sued by the United States Department
of Agriculture, and Il would be advis
able to procure copy.
Crate-fattening birds should Away
have soft feed. AS they have no exer
else they require feed that can b.
tiigested easily and quickly. This mix

WINTER FEEDS FOR HElFERs
Young Animals Should Not Be Com
PEELED to Trough II" During Cold
Weather Period.

Young heifers should not be expect
ed to trough 1t" during the winter,
but should have feed and shelter. The
feeds should of course include bulky
feeds, such as sllage, slower, hay, fod-
der, etc, and concentrates. The young
animals should have enough such con-
centrates as cottonseed meal, wheat
bran, shorts, rice -four, alfalfa, pea hay,
peanut hay to develop body.

cd Of cleaning up eircumscribed areas
Is the predominant one.
Nine counties In the United States
have now completed one or more Off
cial tuberculosis tests Of the cattle
within those areas, and about 80 coun-
ties are now either engaged In this
work or are getting ready to take 1t
up. In some Of the counties the super
visors appropriate funds to employ In
spectors who help the state and fed
eral officials. In others the farm bu-
reaus have taken the job In hand.
HlllsdaIe County a Model.
One of the best examples of what a
county can do in getting rid Of this
destructive disease is found In Hills
dale county, Mich. On October "a
campaign was launched with the Idea
of cleaning out all the diseased cattle.
A force of 80 county, state, and fed
eral inspectors was organized. They
divided up the territory, giving part
of township to each man. The cOun-
ty farm bureau furnished automobiles
that were driven by the farmers who
were leaders In the communities and
had influence with the livestock own
ers. By November every herd In the
county had been tested.
There were 1889 herds, containing
15,773 cattle, and 1916 reactors were
found. This means that about "a per
cent of the cattle In the county had
the dlsease-a rather low percentage.
In sections where the disease is no
more extensive than this, the cost of
cleanup is almost negligible when COM
pared with the good that must ulti-
mately come from 1t. In this county
the farmers and breeders, and in fact
all the people of the county, were en-
thusIastic, which helped great deal
toward getting the work done In such
a short time.
Other Counties Become Interested.
Some of the most progressive live
stock counties In various parts Of the
country are now taking up this prob
lem of getting rid absolutely of tuber'
culoss. They have decided that 1t is
the most feasible and practical way OF
carrying on the work. What was ac
compllshed In Hillsdale county is be
ing carried on at the present time In
more than 20 other counties Of the
same state. Similar work is being
done in New York, where 10 counties
are engaged In area eradication.
Detailed information regarding plans
for tuberculosis eradication may b'
obtained free from the department o
agriculture, Washington, ID. @.

MILK EXCELLENT FOR FOWLS
Productive of Good Manipulating Re-
suits and May Be Fed Alone or
to Molsten Washes.

One class of feeds that is excellent
for poultry and that can be used adj
vantageously on dairy farms, includes
milk, skim milk, buttermilk, sour milk,
cottage cheese, etc. These are all
productive of good money-making re-
suits and, where they are available, 1t
is wise practice to feed them. They
may be fed either alone or used to
moIsten the mashes.
The mash, however, should not be
moistened one day and then fed dry
the next. Follow one or the other OF
the two plans constantly. Fowls will
convert what many times would other
wise waste, into meat and eggs II fed
the milk and its by.products that are
often obtainable on the farm.

boiler; and the farmer who keeps such
COWS seldom has to pay any income
tax.
Like factory, the dairy cow trans
forms raw materials-silage, hay, and
.concentrates--into the finished prod
net, milk. In this way she furnishes
ID market for the feeds. Whether that
market will be good or bad depends
iii part upon the way the COW is fed,
and In part upon the cow herself.
There is no better way to market the
feeds grown on the farm than to feed
them to herd of hlgh-producing dairy
COWS. The COW takes corn silage, grain,
and hay and converts them into pro-
duct for which there Is always ready
sale.
II is much easier to send the milk or
cream to the creamery than to haul
the hay to town. In the long run 1t Is
GENERALLY much more profitable, be-
cause 1t keeps the soil fertility at
. home.
In selling feeds to dairy cows the
farmer has a wide choice Of markets
bad, good, and very good. Few men
discriminate closely enough between
these markets. If wheat buyer offers
i or cents a bushel more than other
Buyers he gets the wheat; IL a wool
buyer offers half a cent n pound more
ne gets the wool. But IL one COW re-
turns SO from dollars worth Of feed
and another only 81, 1t is scarcely no
ticed. There Is q difference of dol
far in the income every time each of
these two cows eats dollars worth of
feed.
According to estimates Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture, the
averoge dairy COW in the United States
produces annually about 1000 pounds
of milk and 100 pounds Of butter fat
According to 10000 yearly individual
cow records recently tabulated by the
department, the average COW testing
association COW produces $3.50 pounds
OF milk and 246 pounds Of butter fat
a year. The worlds records are 81
BS1.4 pounds Of milk and 1,2O5.Ue
hounds of butter fat In year. There
III plenty of room for Improvement, II
would seem, In the average production
The keeping of individual cow rec
crds is easy. To test a half dozer
samples OF milk for butter fat re
quires about half an hour. Weighing
the milk, estimating the weight Of
roughage, and weighing the concen
trates requires but little time, Tit
testing of a composite sample of eacl
cows milk from two consecutive milk
ings once month furnishes the figures
fsom which the yearly production rec
ords can be computed. Any man com
petent to care for dairy herd cal
easily learn to make the butter ia
test and to keep feed and production
records.

ture is used in a New York poultry
farm: 100 pounds finely ground barley,
100 pounds finely ground corn and 100
pounds finely ground oats with hulls
sifted OUT. BLttermilk or skim milk
is used for mixing to the consistency
of thick cream, the buttermilk being
preferred. A little salt sometimes Is
added. In this instance the birds are
fed twice a day at intervals Of IL
hours and are fattened for about three
weeks. 1t Is important that the inter-
walls between the feelings should be as
nearly equal as possible.
Another ration is: 100 pounds ground
oats, 100 pounds ground corn, %
pounds low-grade flour and 4 pounds
tallow.

DAIRY.
FACTS
BETTER cows HELP PROFITS
tIleh-Produelng Dairy Animals Make
Best Market for Different
Home Grown Feeds.

Hundreds Of millions Of dollars
worth of feed is consumed annually by
our dairy cows. The net income is
large or small, according to the way
that feed is used. When production is
increased through feeding and breed
ing. the income rapidly expands. yet a
few real scrubs on any dairy farm
will debate the net income.
Farmers of the United States fur
nish feed and care for 23,0O0.000 dairy
COWS. Because Of low-producing cows
4 large part of that feed is wasted.
Weighing out expensive feeds to low
producing COW is like shoveling costly
caal into the fire box under a leaky
