LABOR PROFITEERINC =
80 DEPLORED BY HOWARD
National Farm Bureau President
Sees Better Prices For Farmers
Who Stick

J. r. Howard, president Of the
American Farm Bureau Federation
in an address delivered at University
Farm, st. Paul last week said labor
has no more right to prof1teer than
has capital. Mr.. Howard attended
the second annual meeting of the
Conference for the Prevention of
Grain Rust. s.e~ 81
Mr.. Howard thinks the farmer
who sticks to his industry soon will
be awarded by an era of higher
prices.
Mr.. Howard told of former sena-
tor now practicing law in Chicago,
who, in remodeling his home, had
employed several plasterers. These
workmen were being paid SIG a day,
extra pay for work on Saturday af-
ternoon and Sunday, with the priv
ilege of resting Monday and Tuesday.
II believe he said in telling Of the
circumstance, that these laborers
have a right to a fair wage, but such
obvious profteering is intolerable
These high wages, in the last analy-
sis, fall on the farmer, who can not
pass them to others. -
Mr.. Howard said he was looking
forward to a shortage of farm labor
with corresponding decreased produc-
ton. This step in the cycle will be
followed by higher prices for those
who stick to the farm. . 3
The Farm Bureau president told
the degegates that grain rust is a
serious menace in the wheat growing
sections, just as in the cotton boil
weevil in the South and the European
corn borer in the corn producing
states.

Saving By Home Butcherins

Too many. farmers neglect to
avail themselves Of the opportunity
to save on living expenses by the
home butchering of livestock and
curing Of meat" says A. L. Harvey
Of the animal husbandry division at
University Farm. ''As soon as the
temperature gets down around the
freezing point there is little danger
Of the meat spelling. Hogs may be
butchered earlier in the fall than
either beef cattle or sheep, as a large
percentage of the carcass can be
cured" Here are some points which
should be kept in mind, says Mr..
Harvey, in slaughtering hogs: b.
- l. Select young healthy hogs
weighing around 200 pounds as they
are easier to handle, yield medium
size cuts, and reasonable amount
of lard. ..8 n -
2. Keep the hogs of feed "a or 80
hours before killing but give them
all the water they want.
8. Don't bruise or whip the ami
NAL before killing, or excite in any
way, for poor carcass will result.
4. Don't expect to do good job
with, only the "old butcher knife. e"
A sticking knife, skinning knife, a
saw, a scraper, hook of some sort,
and a gambrel are necessary.
5. Sticking without stunning or
shooting produces the ebst carcass.
t.,
water is about $50 degrees F. Put
some soap or I've in the water to re-
move the dirt and scurf.
z. If barrel is used, scald the
rear end of the hog first.
8. Use plenty of water.
8. Loosen the leaf lard.
10. Split the. carcass, and allow
ample time for cooling before cutting
up. IT,. s..

LEGISLATIVE BLANK l..
TO BUREAU MEMBERS
Farmers Voting On Agricultural
Issues Before Legislature
and Congress

A statewide referendum is being
taken by the Minnesota Farm Bureau
Federation to determine the position
of it's members on important issues
affecting agriculture that are to
come before the Legislature and Con-
gress.
F. l.. French, secretary, has sent to
all county directors and other local
leaders, supply of blanks, prepared
in the form Of q QUESTIONABLE, which
when filled out, will give the FEEDER
alton especially it's legislative COM
mittee, accurate information as to
the desires of its membership.
1t will take approximately three
weeks to complete the referendum.
Allowing a week to compile returns,
a complete recapitulation will be
ready by the time the legislature
opens.
The QUESTIONABLE will be submitted
at every local farmers meetings to
be held this month. Each question
will be submitted for discussion, af-
ter which vote will be taken and
recorded
The QUESTIONABLE, which follows
closely that submitted to legislative
candidates month ago, is divided
into two parts. One deals with
questions before the state legislature
and the other with issues that will
be decided by Congress. Results. of
the congressional referendum will be
sent to the Washington Office Of the
American Farm Bureau Federation.
On the state legislative issues the
members favor the creation of an in
ivestigational body before definite
steps are taken to organize a state
rural credit system, as the result of
the. passage Of Amendment No. 1. It
also asks for expressions relative to
removal of stockholders liability In
cooperative associations, continual
ton Of production studies, re-estab-
lishment of Minnesota wheat grades,
branch banking, farmers credit or
CARNATIONS, limiting tonnage on rur-
al highways, better county agent law,
more aid for demonstration work,

natural resources, a state bank guar

DEADLY DISEASES
HIT COUNTY FOWLS
Local Poultry Raisers Lose Fowls By
Blackhead And Cholera
.,r.t e 80 - ..
Must Be Kept Clean y
ByL w. Meade, County Agent


Poultry raisers Of Stevens county
have been mourning heavy losses the
last few weeks both in turkeys and
chickens. Numerous cases Of Black
head have been reported Treatment
for Blackhead does not exist except
in the way OF prevention. Once p
fowl is infected with the parasite,
death will follow, the time depending
upon how rapidly the disease de-
veIops in the body. The loss Of ap-
petite, a diarrhea and increasing
droopiness and weakness mark the
termination of the disease. Exam
ination of birds dying from the dis
ease shows yellow, greenish spots on
the liver, which is very much en-
larged.
Birds may be infected for year
without showing signs of disease
Overlooking predisposes an outbreak
of the disease as the parasites are
quite generally present in the diges-
tive disorders. Keeping the flock in
good health with clean yards and
drinking, water will largely prevent
disease. Flowing of yards and use OF
lime will destroy possible disease pro-
ducing matter. The use of crystals
of potassium permanganate or other
disinfectant in the drinking water
is helpful.
The outbreak Of what is thought to
be Fowl Cholera in the. vicinity of
ChokiO has caused heavy losses. It
will be noticed that the disease is
characterized by diarrhea, yellow
ish to greenish in color, mixed with
mucous. The temperature of the
bird is at fever pitch, color Of combs
and wattles are blush red or pale
and the bird looks sick all over. The
birds may be extremely drowsy.
Weakness increases and the beak is
rested on the ground. In very acute
cases the birds are found dead under
the roosts without showing symp-
toms. However, the disease may per
sist for ten days before the bird dies.
In post norton examination of birds
an abundance of red dots on the
heart, together with an enlarged liver
and congested intestine may be found
as evidence of the disease.
Treatment is of no avail; hence,
prevention is the only means of COM
batting the disease. Diseased birds
should be burned and all ailing birds
separated from the flock Potassium
permanganate crystals added to the
drinking water in sufficient quantity
to produce a wine color will prevent
the disease being carried by the
drinking water. a1 d

ports are made to the county agent,
giving number of hens, number of
eggs laid and average production per
hen. Publicity Is given each month
to the highest records and special
emphasis placed on the records OF
those showing the highest average
production for the year.
Such q contest would serve to place
on file in the county agents once
the names Of owners of high produc-
!. ing nocks Of the various breeds, thus
enabling the people of the vicinity
to obtain stock in their own vicinity.
Eleven counties have already. sig
nified their intention of carrying on
such contests. These are Nicollet,
Red Lake, Roseau, Waseca, Wilkln,
.Winona, Ramsey. Rock, Mobiles, Ait
kin and st. Louis. In several Of these
counties is planned to give prizes
for the ten flocks showing the high
est average production for the year.
The contests will be under the direc-
ton of Miss Cooke.

An egg laying contest in every

TROUBLE
RUSS|A'S DRAGNET
Secretary Hoover Regards
Cold Economics and Pro-
ductivity Nations Hope.

Only cold economics which Will
bring about productivity. from the
lack of which she is slowly dying,
will restore Russia to her pre-war
standing, Secretary Hoover of the
Department of Commerce frankly
told members of the International
Chamber of Commerce at a dinner
last night. The solution cannot be
found in charity, he said.
While there have been attempts to
blame .Russia's condition on America.
the Commerce Secretary said, the
troubles were internal, due to the de-
struction of production by the social
experiment the country now Is try
ing. He secuted the suggestion that
the establishment of soviet am
bassador here would start American
goods flowing there and pointed out
that goods do not move In an eco
nomic vacuum" He characterized
statements that Russia Is a field for
the sale of American goods, for the
employment of millions of American
workmen and for large profits as
having "the same degree of imitation
as the bolshevik ruble, whicn now
stands 100000 to the dollar"
Other Speakers Heard.
The dinner at which Secretary
Hoover exploded the economic the
cries on Russia held by many was
given at the City Club. Arthur Bal
four. vice president of the British
Chamber Of Commerce, also spoke. and
said there was great need of an
international chamber of commerce.
Others who spoke were DR.. Fred
eric P. Keppel, chief of the Ameri-
can COMMITTEES of commerce in Paris:
A. B: Darquar and N. Sumner Myrick.
Following the dinner the guests at
President Defrees, of the United
States Chamber of Commerce.
Extract From Mr.. HOover's Address.
Outside the drought-stricken area
the Russian people are slowly dying"
said Secretary Hoover. 'They are
being destroyed from inside of Rus
the destruction Of productivity. The
people are sick with war and terror;
their hope of relief is in evolution
not in revolution. Today the social
pendulum is swinging back. Com
munism has been abandoned for a
1ssr Sut of s,n5IX indiyiduaism and
forms of socialism. Nor must COM
munism or socialism be confused with
the Russian people, for today the ad-
herents to those beliefs in Russia
have diminished to a very small
minority. But whether the adherents
are small or large Russia must work
out her own political and economic
system.
Our relationship to this problem
must be predicated upon one basis
only, and that is what will bring
real assistance to the Russian people
in this time of their greatest need.
We could base help upon sentiment
which is charity. At best 1t Is but
temporary expedient. We are provid-
ing charity in Russia today in a meas
ure ten times more than all the rest Of
the world and we are saving the lives
of 100000 of their people. The
solution cannot be found in charity,
Evening star., 1922-05-16

for. unless productivity is restored
charity will be overwhelmed. Real
and lasting help must be based upon
cold economies or it will bring no
zeal reconstruction or relief to Russia.
Not Dependent on Russia.
when Russia was running full
blast previous to the war. she took
l per cent of the exports OF the
into terms Of working time Of our
workmen and farmers, meant roughly
the employment of say 10000 Amer
leans. We are, therefore. not now
nor ever will be dependent upon Rus
STA for the physical welfare of our
people. ~
'If America is to consider financial
assistance to Russia on any basis ext
cept charity, we must examine the
whole problem from q practical point
of view. Two solemn facts are out
standing:
"The first is that Russia is bank
rupt. She has no productivity; her
factories and mines, even where
founded on Russian raw material
and repairs, are producing but from
2 to rs per cent: her. railways are
their pre-war capacity, her agricul-
tural production Is below her own
needs, instead Of the great normal
surplus; she has eaten up her entire
lat and can Tor long time nave
nothing to exchange for the services
Of our workmen or the savings OF
our investors. Therefore, II we would
supply work, capital and talent to
the reconstruction of productivity in
Russia, they must be given upon
credit or charity.
Second, when our people are call
ed upon to place their savings in
such investments they will be likely
to ask for security for repayment
and evidence that there will be
return to productivity in order that
payment may be made. We arrive
at once at the primary consideration
of those economic essentials that Will
make productivity. possible and that
will give security to investment.
Russia "Slowly DyinE.1
"But, when all Is said and done,
the great problem still stands out.
Russia is slowly dying because the
dynamic forces of production and
foreign confidence have not yet been
restored. We, great Christian
people, look with horror and deepest
sympathyNupon her untold miseries.
We wish to find foundations in
realism for assistance to the Russian
people. To extend this help requires
a vast restoration Of confidence. Il
requires restoration of the processes
of business and commerce. Russia
Is making progress in these direc.
tions. We wish to help, but where
does lasting help lie except in the
firm and final re-establishment Of
those basic fundamentals that we
have already stated?

To the Editor Of The Star:
In The Star of May Is the cartoon

business establishments.
Happily. the facts arc set forth in
the news column on the same page
where it is stated Stores generally

street workmen and such observed the
change. by advancing the hour Of going
to work from fifteen minutes to an hour
The stores opened their doors anywhere
from 40 to s :15, intending to close at
O'clock this afternoon"
The President OF the United States, in
his letter on the subject. made 1t quite
plain that the departments would open
an hour earlier and close an hour
earlier.
The Merchants and Manufacturers
Association, in its consideration Of the
request for daylight saving, following q
meeting, adopted resolution recon-
mendings that the stores open an hour
earlier and close an hour earlier, with
the nnal closing hour O'clock
For many years past there has
been q practice on the part OF differ
emit lines of business to open accord

mess anywhere from 1 O'Clock In: :the

have jobbfng houses that have hSre-
tofore opened their doors at s and,7

operated by male help have been u
the habit of opening at o'clock.
1t was the intention of the Pres.
ident Of. the United States. as ex-
pressed in his letter. that there should
be co-operation.. !. all along the line.
There needsbe no confusion, and there
certainly would be no confusion IL
