CABBAGE VARIETIES
About 1000 Poundsof Seed Pro-

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
About 1000 pounds of cabbage seed
of the Wisconsin All Seasons variety,
which is highly resistant to the disease
known as cabbage yellows,'' was pro-
duced in the Puget Sound section of
Washington during the season of 1921.
Cabbage yellows is caused by a fungus
which is capable of persisting in fav-
orable soils indefinitely and $
serious crop losses in infested regions.
Disinfection Of the seed reduces the
danger of carrying other cabbage
diseases to new districts, but the in
v~estigations of the University of Wis
consin have shown hat the selection
of resistant varieties offers the only
way of preventing loss from yellows.
The United States Department of
Agriculture, in cooperation with the
Wisconsin experiment station, has for
some time been investigating the
disease n assisting growers and
packers in the production of cabbage
seed of the yellows-resistant strains

STOCK PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
Among Controlling Factors Are selec-

Management.

Well-established systems Of live
stock production consistently followed
from year to year are the outstanding
needs of the livestock industry, ac-
cording to a conference of animal
h%usbandry and marketing extension
workers held at Chicago. Economy of
production, the conference agreed, is
the most important factor over which
farmers have control. Producing live
stock of the best quality at the lowest
possible cost was urged and particu-
lar emphasis was placed on economy
of production rather than increased
production as the key TO a prosperous
industry.
Among the controlling factors In
economical livestock production, in
the Judgment Of the conference. were
selection OF animals, choosing of ra-
lions and good practices in care and

ference included United States De

Europe Redeems

American money now is so %cheapened
that you a buy three marks for an
American penny. The Austrian crow
has been as cheap as 5000 for 81. A
$40 bill OF American money in Russia
would exchange for enough rubles to
make what would have been a Rus
sian fortune before the war.
Trade. especially international
trade, has become very difficult under
these conditions. The problem Of re-
storing these c%urrencies to something
like normal value has perplexed Euro
pean financiers and economists ever
since the imitation started. 1t is one.
of the big questions before the Genoa
conference which has been called to
solve European economic and political
problems. The United States declined
an Invitation TO this conference. part
ly because Of the danger of becoming
involved in so unstable q condition of
affairs as that created by the cheap
currencies.
Development Surprises Experts.
Now, the new development which
has surprised economists in connec
ton with this situation is the discov-
cry that there is a tendency on the
part of Europeans to bring about a
hitherto undreamed of method of cor
recting the imitation. Many plans have
been suggested but none has been
found practical. The new develop
ment is one which. II 1t continues. will
tend TO correct the situation without
the aid of conferences or politicians.
The development is hailed as a re-
versal of Gresham's law. The fact
seems to be that the people of Russia.

WHY PUREBRED sIREs EXCEL
Ratios Between Males and Females in
Different Glasses Of Stock Kept
for Breeding.

II you are ever inclined to doubt the
Importance of the quality sire, a glance
at the figures below will reassure you.
They represent the ratios between
males and females in different classes
of live stock kept for breeding pur-
poses. The figures are based on a sur
vey of more than 100000 head of live
stock of all kinds made by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Cattle-1 bull to 1s.9 cows.
Horses-1 stallion to 1863 mares.
SWINE boar to Ills sows.
Sheep ram to 81 ewes.
Goats-1 buck to 26.6 does.
Chickens rooster to 1913 hens.
other poultry. geese, ducks, tur.
keys, etc. (average)-1 male to So fe-
males.
These figures are taken from more
than 1000 farms in various parts of
the country, and are believed to be
typical of average conditions the coun-
try owe Since the sire is the parent
of so many more offspring than the
female. the Importance of using a
purebred sire of individual quality and
excellence can hardly be overempha-
sized. There may be cases where
scrub dams are wisely tolerated, but
1t is almost criminal to propagate un-
desirable characteristics by using
scrub males.

Y M. C. A. HELPS PRISONERS
Men Confined in "~Discipsinary Bar
racks" at Governors Island,
Appreciate Training.

Thanks to the Y. NJ. c. A. many of
the disciplinary barracks maintained
by the United States for its soldiers
who fracture the rules that govern the
buck private and officer alike aren't all
dark walls and lark living. Such a
one is historic Fort Jay at Governors
island, New York harbor, where be-
tween 200 and 300 soldiers are usually
confined, most of whom are "in" for
minor offenses. A few, however, are
being 'cared for" only a few days,
prior to their taking up a longer resi-
dence at Fort Leavenworth, the army
prison.
Col. John E. Hunt was commanding
officer of Fort Jay during the World
war, and he introduced "Y" activities
for its inmates. Since that time the
secretaries have kept up their work.
The "Y" is housed in the first build
ing of its kind the organization ever
built in this country. Every Wednes-
day the confined men are allowed to
attend the ~"sing-song," and about 175
of the men make the walls resound.
The Sunday evening religious service
is even better attended, more than 200
taking part.
Another feature of the work is the
teaching of volunteer instructors of
educational subjects. Spanish and
French courses. together with reading,
writing and arithmetic. are proving the
most popular subjects. The men show
a desire to absorb as much knowledge
as possible during their period of CON
hnement.

illustrating this new development re-
Gently was reported by a British trad
ing firm. This firm sold a bill of goods
to a Russian dealer at Rostov. Pay
ment was received in a miscellaneous
assortment of cash. 1t consisted of
American gold. checks drawn on
American banks, American bills of ex-
change, English currency and checks.
Turkish gold and checks and notes.
French currency and checks and Rus
sian gold rubles. Obviously, with the
exception of the checks, this payment
was made from good money which
doubtless had been boarded since the
war.
Agents of the American relief ad-
minlstration in Russia have reported
similar instances of people bringing
out gold and other metal money. The
same is true in Poland. Germany and
Austria.
Currency Revolution Seen.
What economists see In this devel-
opment is the possibility of a gradual
revolution in European currencies.
For instance. the Russians have dis
covered that their own rubles are
nearly useless but that they can get
big value for British or American or
other good money. Consequently they
will try to get hold of as much of this
foreign money as possible.
In early days In Europe this same
phenomenon occurred. Money issued
at the great banking centers of Ven
ice, Antwerp and n few other cities
came into general use all over Europe,
displacing cheaper native currencies
because everybody knew it was good
money.
Recently, the United States treasury
removed the ban from the free issue
of gold and gold certificates. 1t is
thought possible by economists and
students of international finance that
a good deal of this gold money. known
all over the world as being o~btainable,
will reach the countries abroad having
deprecated currency and become pop
ular as a valuable medium of ex-
change. This has moi been possible
until the last few days because the
treasury and the federal reserve banks
would not let gold go into general cir
culation. but now it is possible for
foreign-born Americans to get this
and send 1t to their relatives
abroad.
1t is recognized that this process of
substitution of foreign money for the
deprecated native currencies would
be slow, but. some economists believe
that 1t is a possible but necessarily
slow solution to the European emer.
gency problem.
