Pacific Coast Trade
Continues TO Improve
Ample Freight Offered; Grain
Market 90 Europe Better;
Ports Gougestel

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.--Condi-
tions in the major trade routes from
the Pacific Coast continue to show
Improvement and ample freight is Of
fering in the majority of the trades.
Rates, however, are no better, except
on grain to the United Kingdom and
Europe. The market has frmed UP to
SIS Sd for both full cargoes and
parcels. The intercostal movement is
1nabated, and certain shippers have
started agitation for the ALLEGATION Of
two or more Shipping Board steamers
to load California products for the
North Atlantic during December.
The volume Of commerce to both
sides Of the Atlantic, together with the
shortage of railroad cars, has caused
considerable congestion at several
Pacific Coast ports. Difficulty is being
had in arranging space for intercoastal
steamers at this port and Los Angeles.
Steamers for australia are booked
solid until after the first of the year,
and shippers have been unable to place
some large shipments of oil. Exports
to Australia and the west coast Of
South America have been the slowest to
recover from the slump, but both are
now active.
The disposition Of shippers to await
the outcome of efforts to reorganize
the Pacific westbound conference has
had q tendency to check Oriental
freights. Neither Japan nor China is
buying heavily Of lumber, but revival
of the lumber business is anticipated
soon.

From The T,Ibune's Washington bureau

From The TfioRne's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Nov 4.-The Admin
istration's ship subsidy bill will pass
the House without serious difficulty
and with little delay, according to
prominent members of the House Mer-
chant Marine Committee, who have
made careful canvass of the situa-
tion.
Views OF each member have been
checked over with care and it has been
found there is clear majority for
subsidy legislation. 1t is the under
House Committee on Merchant Marine,
! who will have charge of the subsidy
measure, is fully convinced that it will
s pass. and the same is true of House
Leader Mondell and other Administers
tion leaders
If the President calls an extra ses-
sion November 20, as he is expected to,
s the subsidy measure can be rushed
, through the House before the begin
ming Of the regular session, according
. to the information in House Merchant
Marine Committee circles. 1t will then
. be sent to the Senate and taken up
there early in the regular session.
The real struggle over the subsidy
/ bill will come in the Senate. What will
4 be the outcome there is admitted by the
advocates Of the merchant marine meas
ure TO be doubtful.
{ Republican leaders in the Senate
: have given assurances that the Dyer

Smyrna Fig Ship Wrecked

Thanksgiving is going to be figless
this year, so far as the imported Smyrna
fig is concerned. News reached here
yesterday that the United States Ship
ping Board vessel Casey, which was
loaded with figs that were on board
lighters in the harbor of Smyrna at
the time the Turks entered the city,
had gone on the rocks off the coast of
Sicily and was now in drydock at Malta
undergoing repairs.
Importers had figured that the Casey
would arrive here in time for the
Thanksgiving trade. Due to the
Smyrna situation, there has been
shortage in Turkish figs for some
weeks, and the importers had placed
their hopes In the Casey. There are
said to be plenty Of California figs on

Save the Brains of Russia.

The intellectual leaders in the arts
and sciences who are being lost from
slow starvation under soviet rule will
take generations to replace. E. T.
Cotton, back from an extended stay in
Russia says that if Russian culture
and education are to be preserved for
the future rebirth of the nation, these
men must be kept alive.
"The birth rate cannot replace these
men," says Mr.. Cotton, speaking be-
fore the national board. "Life for the
last four years has been reduced to
food-getting, sufficient for the actual
day before them to keep life itself
alive. The weakened energies of the
students at the great universities are
so given over to getting food and heat
that students have almost ceased to
be students. For this reason We are
giving fourteen thousand students a
daily meal" Thanks to an unnamed
business man who donated twenty-five
thousand dollars to save the ''brains
of Russia" Mr.. Cotton was able to
select several hundred University
professors and scholars for a daily
ration.

Centralizers Are Reported to be Plan
ing to Establish Creameries
in Minnesota.
OFFERS $500 IN PRIZES
Our Co-Operative Creameries Should
Win First Prize at 1922
Dairy Show.
(By A. ]. McGuire)

For Is years Minnesota has been
recognized as the greatest butter state
in the Union. Minnesota has won this
distinction chiefly through the quality
of butter produced. Minnesota has
made high quality butter because of
it's 600 cooperative creameries.
Other state built cooperative
creameries at the same time Mime
sofa was building it's creameries, but
in the other states the cooperative
creameries have been largely killed
off. In our state they have survived,
but they are by no means safe. Twen-
ty-five years ago the cooperative
creameries manufactured practically
all the butter that was made in Mime
sofa. At the present time there are
1000 cream stations scattered
throughout the state and owned by
the centralizers.
The centralized system is what
killed of the cooperative creameries
in other states and they are now max
ing every effort possible to get con-
troll of the butter industry in Mime
sofa. To this end one of the largest
centralizers in the United States has
announced it's plan to establish sweet
cream creameries in Minnesota. It is
doing this in order to be able to COM
pete with the cooperative creameries
on the New York and Philadelphia
markets where the consumers demand
high quality butter. The centralizers
have practically all the other butter
markets of the United States, and
they are now making a drive to get
these two important markets. The
establishment of sweet cream cream
cries in Minnesota by the centralizers
is putting into effect the most dan.
gerous weapon the farmers cream.
cries have yet had to go against. The
cooperative creameries in Minnesota
have kept in the lead because they
have made better butter than the
centralizers; but now, with the cen.
tralizers taking the field for high
quality butter, the cooperative cream.

they have gained during the past 2E
years.

they are going to be able to wage .
successful battle.
The association has organized the
whole state with the exception Of but
five counties. During the flush, June
and July, " cars Of butter were
shipped weekly on which there was q
net saving Of $3.50 car. A New
York office for the distribution Of the
butter is maintained by the associa-
Ntion, and through this office as high
as IA cars Of butter have been dis
tributed in day. The association
has been successful financially from
the beginning. It has never been a
dollar in debt, and the $4,000 that
has been paid in, by the 335 member
creameries in capital stock is prac-
tically all in the treasury of the asso-
citation, making the capital stock
worth 100 cents on the dollar. The
association is financially able to take
up any work the member creameries
want to have done.
In Is national buttermakers' con-
tests, the buttermakers in the Mime
sofa cooperative creameries have
won Is times. There is national
contest on again this fall in connection
with the national dairy show, October
9 to ID, at the state fair grounds. It
is highly important that the Minneso-
ia cooperative creameries should win
the national banner again this fall
and to assist in this important work
the Minnesota Cooperative Cream
cries association is offering $500 in
cash, to be pro-rated among the
creamery operators whose butter
scores 95 or above at the national
dairy show.
Dairy farmers as we'll as creamery
operators should be interested in the
winning of the national banner. II
will not only mean valuable advertis.
ing for their product, but it will re.
suit in higher price for all the but
ter produced in the state. When the

Potato Bugs in France.

OC0CO OU&S III + I0IlCCs
Although plaques Of insects that at
tack our crops often become gradually
less destructive, through adaptation of
control measures and the development
Of liking for the pests by native in
sect or bird enemies, they will exact
huge tribute each year from the
former.
A case in point is the Colorado po-
tato beetle, which in it's eastward
march so years ago threatened to wipe
out the important potato crop. It's
distribution toward the south and west
has been less rapid than that directly
eastward, and it is we'll controlled by
natural enemies and the use Of in
secticides. The amount annually ex-
pended for arsenical poisons and their
application against this pest probably
reaches $20,000,00O.
Although the control of this pest is
now well understood by American po-
tato growers, it's recent appearance in
France in the vicinity of Bordeaux is
causing much alarm to French far
mers and etomologists. It has ap-
parently already spread there beyond
the possibility Of determination and
the authorities have been obliged to
take up the question of legal action
to enforce spraying with arsenicals.
The situation is regard as so serious
that the establishment of zones in
which no potatoes can be grown is be-
ing considered.

Savings in freight rates on 1900
carloads of butter, shipped through
the Minnesota Cooperative Cream
cries association in it's first year of
active marketing work, amount to
$180,000.
The association has just announced
that economies in freight charges,
brought about by shipping in carlots,
amount to more than twice the total
cost of operating the organizations.
In other words, according to A. J. Nc
CURE, general manager, the savings
in freight rates already have paid
back to the cooperative creameries
and their patrons more than the cost
of the state agency, So that the other
activities of the organization actually
cost the farmers nothing at all.
The membership of the association
totals 1886 cooperative creameries.
The state agency, launched last year,
already covers all but five of the SO
counties in Minnesota. Fourteen ex-
pert field men are at work helping
creameries to improve the quality of
their product to command higher
prices, and to market in carload lots
at lower transportation costs.

s. E. Elliott, formerly editor of the
Farmers Dispatch, and recently asso-

state federation, and founded the
Farm Bureaw News Service, which
serves more than 500 'home town.

Minnesota's cooperative marketing
and agricultural organizations. Ac-
cording to J. F. Reed, president of the
federation, the department has been
built up until it is recognized as the
strongest and most successful main
tanned by any state federation.
"The country newspaper has been
the best friend the Minnesota farmer
and his organizations have had," Mr.
Swanson said. 1T would be impossi.
BILE to give the home town paper toe
much credit for the part it has played
in making cooperative marketing q
success in Minnesota. It deserves the
