National Grange COMMITTEES
Calls at White House.
Views Of Members.

The executive committee Of the
National Grange, summoned to the
White House by President Coolidge,
yesterday entered a strong plea
against all proposals for the call Of
B special session OF Congress 70 con-
slder agricultural legislation.
The committee also opposed price
fixing for wheat and an increase In
the tariff duty on wheat. The
Recommendation Of Secretary Wal
lace for a Governmental marketing
organization was favored
The grange committee was headed
by s. ]. Lowell. New York, master
OF the grange, and consisted of E.
"A Eckert, Illinois, and Leslie r.
Smith, Massachusetts. Feeling that
the existing agricultural depression
Is the result OF purely economic
conditions, the committee said that
no immediate legislation could solve
the farm problem.
With the exception Of wheat
growers. farmers generally through
cut the country are enjoying a
favorable year." said Eckert. 1.-THE
need OF the wheat growers in tho
Northwest is diversification Of
crops.
Such q change, however. would
not be an immediate cure and
would be expensive, because the
CROP territory 3 that farmers there

The committee thought that farm

satisfactorily without the necessity

NAHUM SAID 1T

The ancient prophets were wise.
We have ceased to scoff since read
ing the fourth verse from the second
chapter of Nahum:
"The chariots shall rage In the
streets, they shall jostle one against
another in the broad ways; they shall
seem like torches, they shall run like
the lightnings."
The seer, had he looked but little
more into the future an dobserved the
well-known universal model, might
have added: "And rattle like the
dickens"
But now comes "Steinmetz," the
great electrical prophet Of our day,
who says that most of our city char
lots Of the future will be propelled
by electricity. Therein endeth Ma
huns 1esson-and the day of light
nings and thunderings and suffoca-
lions of raging torches.

WIDE AREA COVERED LAST
YEAR IN BARBERRY SCOUTING

An area equivalent to 200 counties
was covered during the last fiscal
year in the farm-to-farm survey for
barberry bushes. This is one step IN
the fight against wheat rust which is
being carried on by the United States
Department of Agriculture in cooper
alton with state agricultural colleges,
state department of agriculture, ana
the Conference for he Prevention Oh
Grain Rust. The work consisted OF
survey and a resurvey for sprouting
bushes and seedlings. 1t was carried
on in Colorado, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana,
Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South
Dakota. Wisconsin and Wyoming. In
all, 740,S55 bushes were removed
from $3.50 properties in the prelim-
inary survey while 66,67O sprouting
bushes and 9,13S seedlings were de-
stroyed in the follow-up campaign.
Since the beginning OF the barberry
eradication work in 1918 practically
all cities and villages of the thirteen
states within the quarantine area have
been surveyed. In the original FARM
to-farm survey an area equivalent 10
4S4 counties has been covered, in
Guiding 80 counties surveyed on funds
furnished by states. In the five years
a total of 5,234,946 bushes and seed
Iings have been destroyed on $3.50

PROTECTING FISH AND GAME

The State Fish and Game Depart
ment of Idaho without making any
noise amout it is doing extremely
efficient work with the expenditure of
less money than any previous admin
istration for years. Under the lead
ership of Dick Thomas every man Is
quietly going about the states bust
ness and protecting the fish and
game. The fish propagation and
planting work under George Isaacs
has reached stupendous proportions
with higher degree of efficiency for
less money expended than any other
western state.
The state cannot afford to have a
deputy game warden on every creek
in Idaho nor to have one with every
covey Of quail. But the men who are
deputized for this work are chosen
because of their ability to cover the
territory and their keen sportsman
like interest in their work.
Some violation may continue bur
those who violate the game laws Of
Idaho are beginning to learn that
there is quiet power that will soon
run them to earth. Although
smaller force than in some time past
the work is meeting with most ex-
cellent results.

MANY ARTICLES MAY BE MADE
OF HOME.TANNED LEATHER

When hide or skin can not be sold
locally at a good price 1t sometimes
pays to have 1t tanned or tan 1t ones
self for use in making harness, bags,
garments, robes, rugs, and other ar
ticles. Extension agents of the I'm
tied States Department Of Agricul-
ture and of the state agricultural col
leges are endeavoring to aid in the
profitable utilization OF the hides OF
animals butchered on the farm. Home
demonstration agents in several Of
the Southern States have begun to
interest women in the possibility OF
making up the leather in various
ways. Three home demonstration
agents who have been given scholar
ships abroad will devote part Of their
studies to leather work in the hope
of assisting rural women In this
country.
A club woman in northwest Okla
homa recently made herself very
beautiful horse hide coat which she
believed would have cost at least $50
II she had bought it ready made. She
spent only 50 for tanning and small
additional amount for the sateen lin
ing. Everyone in the club assisted N
planning the garment and in apply
ing the principles of cutting and de-
signing learned from the extension
agent. Each woman felt that she hal
had a hand in it's construction AMI
that she could make similar coat.
Most useful and attractive coats and
sleeveless jumpers, with hats to
match, can be made from veal skins,
which can be tanned without the hair
at a reasonably low cost. Many use
full and marketable articles are also
made from lamb, sheep, and goat
skins.
