FIGHT ANTICIPATED
IN NEXT CONGRESS
LIKELY TO GET ALL RILED
UP ABOUT RUSSIA. WILL
URGE RECOGNITION.

Russia will cause great howdy do
in congress when it convenes again in
December. This is the opinion of
those in close touch with the political
affairs OF this country.
Recognition of the soviet govern
ment OF Russia, with consequent re-
sumption OF diplomatic and trade re-
lations, will be the bone of conten-
ton
The attitude OF the present admin
istration was revealed by Secretary OF
State Hughes in his recent letter to
Samuel Gompers, president OF the
American Federation OF Labor. The
secretary said that it was his opinion
that conditions in Russia did not per-
NIT OF this country according recog-
milton as yet, that the soviet leaders
were still intent on fomenting world
wide revolution and the overthrow of
all existing governments.
On the other hand, several United
States senator's have visited Russia
during recent months and they have
returned with the conviction that the
government of Russia should be i'm
mediately recognized by the United
States.
The most prominent of these are
Senator LaFollette, OF Wisconsin;
Senator Brookhart, of Iowa, and Sen
ator Borah. of Idaho all foes of the
present republican administration, and
who will urge that this country re-
sumo diplomatic relations with Rus
STA
A number of democrats will advo-
cate the same thing. While congress
cannot force recognition of Russia
the question will undoubtedly cause
the administration considerable en-
barrassment during the next session.

UNITED STATES AND
MEXICO TO CLASP HANDS
TWO COUNTRIES TO BECOME
FRIENDS AGAIN. RECOGNI-
TON is EXPECTED.
The CONFERENCE Is CONCLUDED
Commissioners of This Country and
Mexican Representatives Arrange
Details of Agreement Between Both
Countries at Recent Meeting.

While President Coolidge has made
no official announcement OF his posi-
ton it is understood. in Washington
that he will soon recognize the gov
eminent of Mexico, and this country
will enter again into diplomatic rela-
tons with the republic south of the
Rio Grande.
The American commissioners, Chas
Beecher Warren and Iohn Barton
PAYNE. who were in Mexico City from
May IA to Aug. 10, arranging terms
of settlement of the differences be-
tween the two republics, are holding
conferences with President Coolidge
and Secretary of State Hughes in
Washington, explaining in detail the
draft of their agreement with the
Mexican government.
American capital and industrial en-
terprises in Mexico will be assured OF
ample protection by the terms of the
agreement, it is said.
Oregon Masterful
The first step toward closer rela-
tons between the two countries was
taken by the late President Harding
in May, when he sent two American
representatives to Mexico City to con-
fer with the Mexican commissioners.
1t has been apparent for more than
year in Washington that the admin
istration OF President Oregon in
Mexico has placed that country on a
sound footing and that interests of
foreigners are assured OF protection.
Oregon is recognized as strong
man, one who has been able to unite
the various contending. factions that
made the administrations OF his pre-
decessors so insecure and made OF the
country one vast battle ground.
The American commissioners, War
rem and Payne, were accorded the
most courteous treatment in Mexico
City, they report When the Ameri-
cans were ready to leave, their work
finished, a special train was furnished
them by President Obregon, and ev-
erywhere along the route they were
greeted enthusiastically by Mexican
city officials and the military.
Resumption of diplomatic relations
between the two countries will mean
that American capital will again be
welcome IN Mexico for the develop
ment OF that country

THE GRAIN MOTH INWHEAT

The Angoumois grain moth has
caused a great deal Of damage to
wheat in New jersey in recent years.
Whether or not it will be as bad this
year remains to be seen. but it is well
ures and to act promptly if the insect
appears in numbers.
This moth, sometimes incorrectly
'weevil' or ''fy weevil,' starts in in
Testing wheat in the field before the
crop natures. The adult, it is about
half inch from tip to tip Of the wings.
is Of a buff or grayish color. When
the worm matches from the egg it bur
rows into the wheat kernel, eating it
out as the insect grows. There are as
many as five generations Of the insect
in one year.
The best way to control it is by early
threshing. When this can be done by
the first of September the third gener-
alton. which appears about that time.
will not be able to attack the grain in
the stack or NOV. 1t is these later
genertions that ordinarily do the
most damage, since the individuals are
much more numerous.
After threshing, the wheat should
be stored in deep, tight bins or in tight
bags. If the grain is badly infested.
it may be famed and screened. Such
treatment will remove about one-half
the infested kernels. Fresh grain
should not be exposed to attackby be
ing placed in bins that are already in
tested. Before storing, the old grain
should be removed from the bins and
the floors, walls and ceilings thor
oughly cleaned.
To kill the moth in the grain after
it is stored, fumigate it with carbon
bisulfde. Place this liquid in shallow
pans at the top of the bin, run a short
piece Of pipe into the grain at several
points and pour part of the liquid thru
it into the Grain. An iron rod run
thru the pipe with a wooded plug on
the end will enable the operator to re-
lease the liquid after the pipe is thrust
into the grain. Close the bin tightly
to confne the fumes. Keep it closed
for forty-eight hours. Avoid inhaling
the fumes. Since they are infammable
no light or fire should be allowed about
the building while the fumigation is
in progress. More complete details
regarding the grain moth are contain
ed in Circular 90 of the New Jersey
Experiment Station, perpared by DR..
T. J. Headlee. A copy may be OBJ
tained on request.
