husbandman Of the University Of

the bulls should be of service

CHANGE NEST LITTER OFTEN
Hens Pull Out Material and 1t Be-
comes Broken and Packed
Danger of Broken Egg.

Every few weeks the best of nests
will need more litter. The hens pull
it out and it becomes broken and
packed down until a bare spot of
boards may appear in the middle.
This increases the danger of a broken
egg, which may in turn smear half a
dozen good ones.

Ords Of 200 eggs per year among these
ducks are not at all uncommon.
The Runner, like the Leghorn
chicken, is small and trim in size and
shape, and, therefore, not well suited
for market fowl, but it is probably
the best suited for general farm con-
6itions where good laying is desirable.
in fact, the Runner has in the past
ten years made rapid Roadway on the
farms because of this very fact.

Babcock test for butterfat in milk.
The dairy industry was revolutionized
by this discovery. Formerly there had
been no standard way of determining
the value of milk. The Babcock test
told the story easily and quickly. It
fixed a definite scale of value on milk.
All over the world, this simple test
has enjoyed universal service.

When the war came on the Govern

the industries OF the Nation. The plan
worked-partially. 1t was found that
franchise relations tied the utilities to
local political control from which they
could not secure relief. Receiverships
and bankruptcy followed. The util-
tiles in their desperation tried every
thing. They even advertised, and ad-
vertising worked. The companies
sought customer-ownership. and were
surprised to find how many new stock
holders they secured. They told the

The dream of statesmen has been
to reclaim the arid and semi-arid
lands of the west by irrigation. The
Government has spent Sl34, 1000 in
its reclamation projects. and it has
received in return $4,000. 900, besides
which 100000 is due and unpaid.

that relatively few of the original set

they been able to make the land pay

POLITICS

Governor Pinchot of Pennsylvania
is given high praise in Washington for
having adjusted the coal strike. Nc
doubt the cooperation will continue
between the White House and the Ex-
ecutive at Harrisburg in efforts to pre-
vent undue increased prices of coal to
the consumer. incidentally the Latin
for anthracite in "a kind OF blood
stone" The political significance of
Governor Pinchot's spectacular sue
cess has not escaped the eagle-eyed
National committees Of both the old
parties. The Democratic committee
insists that the Republicans are not
enforcing the anti-prohteering laws
and it predicts that the Pinchot settle

terest in the development Of water
power and electric transmission. The
controversy has ragged for nearly two
years, and the Ford shouters would
give Mr.. Ford a monopoly of the
Alabama power. The other side of
this argument is that the Federal
Power Act creates a Government
policy for the development Of water
power resources, and this policy was
accepted after twenty years struggle
in Congress. 1t is ignored by the
Ford offer. Besides this, conserva-
tionists of the country fought to keep
the water powers out of the clutches
Of capitalists like Mr.. Ford who seeks
a monopoly for his individual profit.
II is pointed out that Muscle Shoals,
like Niagara Falls, must be operated
by many interests, and for all kinds
Of individual purposes. Most people

he power that Muscle Shoals will
produce already exists in the South
I'm States, and that it is not necessary

/ cratic chances for success will be ac-
celebrated. The Republican committee
is throwing its full support to Presi-
dent Coolidge and it expects to pre-
sent him nomination for the high Of
fee he now holds. 1t is quite natural
that the leading Republican newspa-
pers should settle on President Cool
idge as the band-wagon candidate.
Rather strangely the zeal OF the lead
ing Administration organ in Washing
ton has led its editor to characterize
the Pinchot coal settlement as a mis-
take. and to build up insiduous argu-
ments to prove that Pinchot has failed.
However there are editors and man
ayers" of politics who try to arrange
National politics according to methods
that are applied to ward and township
affairs. The Republican politicians
ticket at the present time is Coolidge
and Pinchot But when you ask one
of the great leaders whether Pinchot
is a possibility for first place, they
replay retulantly: Certainly not"
That is a familiar line known to those
who interview politicians months be-
fore the political situation ripens thru
out the country. 1t is not necessarily
to be considered as the last word.
And aside and apart from all the
above regular" gossip, there is the
of Hiram Johnson, the ambition

possibility that the progressive policy.

POLITICS-OLD AND NEW

Political organizations have always
depended upon party committees TO
keep them intact. The National COM
mittees used TO operate from mid
western" Chicago, or next to the
"money-chests" of New York. A few
years ago the headquarters were APP
parently permanently located in Wash
ington.
Fifteen or twenty years ago political
politeness interfered irr~ationally with
the liberties OF public men. "Sena-
torial courtesy" was badly overwork-
ed. A new Senator or a Representa-
tive was supposed ITO be seen but not
heard" during a first session in Con-
gress. Retiring Senators who OBJ
served existing forms of political eti-
quette never appeared on the floor or
in the Hobbies Of the Senate after the
expiration of their terms OF ofilce.
Hundreds Of men serving in both
Houses never went back to the Capt.
toll building after they were out OF
Office though most OF them visited
Washington at different times. There
was an .old-time modesty among these
big-hsted politicians that it seems hard
to understand.
Colonel Roosevelt was the first ex-
President who dehed custom by COM
ing to Washington whenever he felt
like it. but he did leave the Capitol
on the day his successor took office.
Mr.. Taft did the same when succeed
ed by Mr.. Wilson. But he returned
frequently to Washington and when
the war came on he spent most of his
time in the Capital. Mr.. Wilson was
the first President to leave the White
House and take up his residence in
Washington. Chief Justice Taft owns
and occupies a home in the Capital
City. and so it has happened for the
first time in the history of the country
two living Ex-Presidents are now
residents of Washington. where they
attained the height of their glory.
Former Senators and Representa-
tives are no longer expected to shun
the highways and byways OF the Ma

appears hat even this method did not
save the situation, since most of the
first settlers have given it up as a bad
job. In the hopes that reclamation
methods may be readjusted so that
they may be adapted to existing con-
ditions in the west. the Secretary of

HALF MILLION OF
STATE FUND, NOW
EMPTY, |SASKED
Merry Juggling Brings Cry
From Highway Board
for Loan Return.

The State highway commission to-
day requested of the State general
fund immediate payment Of s5Oo.eO0
.oan made recently to carry the latter
through an emergency.
With a balance Of 1868, 900, and
facing approximately ST04 900 in pay
ments falling due on contracts in the
near future. the highway body saw
fit to recall at least $685. Of the
1880, 600 owed it by the general fund.
Members of the State board OF
finance had expected to meet late
today to find some means Of rails
ing the money necessary to repay the
$500 900.
The meeting was postponed on ac-
count Of the absence of State Treas
urer Ora Davies, a member. The
other members are Governor McCray
and State Auditor Robert Bracken.
The general fund had a bal
aDce Monday Of S271, 1912 ST, which
will scarcely take care of the State )
pay roll today of about $4,000 AMI
current bills amounting to nearly
$50 900
At any rate, the general fund can
not pay the debt and its current bills
at the same time without some help.
Money Needed for Road Use
John D. Williams. director OF the
highway commission. conferred with
State Auditor Bracken late on
Wednesday and informed him Of the
needs Of the commission. Bracken
sya4l 70 fza Ia
would be through a bank loan to the
general fund
Last month the highway commits
sion received about 1890 900 in gas
oline tax collections. No sooner had
the money been received than the
fund was touched for a s400 900 loan
to the general fund. The loan falls
due Nov. 10, but williams informed
Bracken that the commission cannot
wait until then. Carrying out the
present road construction program
win require considerably more funds
than the commission now has on
hand, Williams said.
General Fund Creditors
Books in Bracken's office show the
general funds creditors as follows;
Highway commission, $3.50 900;
banks, s1,75oOOO; auto theft fund,
s400, 900; Purdue University endow-
ment fund. s340 600.
So urgent have been the demands
on the general fund. the State sent
call Wednesday to all county treas.
urers asking advance payments on
tax collections ordinarily not payable
until Dec. 81.
During this last twenty years, State
disbursements, which represent ex
penses Of the commonwealth, have
advanced from approximately $4,000
600 annually to more than $50, 900 900,
according to figures compiled by Carl
Cue, deputy State auditor.
In 1903 the State spent s5.e13.s75.be
and in 1923 the expenses were $780,

the expenses were S13, .327.T1 Re
