impossible, within the limits of
these minutes, to even mention the
subjects which were so well treated
in this forty minute address, but to
give an idea of the amount of work
necessary to get a desirable bill
through Congress, the speaker gave
two years as near the minimum for
bill opposed by powerful money
making corporations, while some
require much longer. The Capper-
Volstead Act, for instance, was three
and half years, nearly the life of
two Congresses.
The committee on premises report
ed that we all know what happened
at the dinner table, and they would
report some Of the things that all
the members might not have noticed.
They found complete stock of farm
implements stored, specifying cul-
tipacker and stalk cutter. A good
supply of dairy feeds, bran, grain
and cob meal, with gluten for the

tons Of hay in NOW. twenty-one tons

autopsy closed sacs, non-infecting.
A cat which was In the habit of
sleeping in the feeding trough or
troughs of these cows. on being ex-
amined by veterinarian was found
to have infectious. tuberculosis, and
she was undoubtedly responsible for
the three cases.
Conrad Reid, a guest, who has
lately given up business in Wash
tington, and settled on Cecil
county farm. gave very racy ac-
count of his experiences this first
year at farming. Although one
might have thought he was engaging
in farming as pastime he is evil
IDENTIFY going to see that his pastime
pays. One evidence of this was in
his statement that as wheat costs
more than 1t brings, he will try rye
this fall instead, and for the test has
procured from Richmond, Va, the
seed he wanted. At the close of
his address. he was accorded the
unique compliment of the applause
of the Club.

ed out that in farming two things
are essential, Organization and
Specialization, dwelling particularly
on the latter. While he would not
advocate having ''all ones eggs in
one basket" he would do away with
most of the baskets which most
farmers attempt to fill, and fill one
basket with enough eggs for pay
ing hatch.
