AMERICAS FARMERS
and EUROPE'S BUYERS

There are broad indications that
the current annual balance of indebt-
edness of the rest of the world to the
United States which must be covered
by American investments in foreign
countries will be in the neighborhood
of one billion dollars for the year
1928.
In 1922. according to the United
States department of commerce,
American investors purchased 769
million dollars of new capital foreign
securities, $50 million the first six
months of the year and only $50 mil
lion the last six months of the year.
The fact that only 90 per cent of the
total loans were made in the second
half of the year is overwhelming evil
dence that this source of funds for
the purchase of American exports is
drying up and that the exports of the
1928 crops are likely to be seriously

1 cockerel to IL hens for the Rocks
Reds or Wyandottes, and 1 cockere
to 10 hens for the heavy breeds. In
selecting a cockerel get one that is
100 per cent vigorous. If you want lots
of eggs, get cockerel from a dam
with high trap nest record.
In case you have chickens that you
do not want. or if any of them have
tuberculosis, sell the entire flock and
start over. 1t is always possible to get
good stock. A dozen hens and a
rooster can be bought for $500 to
$4,000. You can start with four hens
and go Matching eggs at a cost of
$500 to $4,000: but you will not have
many eggs to eat till the pullets start
laying In the fall You can buy 100
day-old chicks at q cost of $500 to
$4,000, and raise 40 pullets that will
cost You at laying age about $4,000.
You can start in any one of these
ways at half the cost by buying poor
stock; but they will cost you ten
times as much In the end.
There is nothing so palatable as a
fresh laid egg. A dozen good hens,

How to Start the Home Flock.


In starting the home flock of
chickens, decide first OF all what you
want. If you want eggs, and very lit
tie meat, start with Leghorns, An
conas or Minorcas. Where you want
meat and eggs, start with Rocks, Reds
or Wyandottes. If you want princi-
pally meat, start with Brahams,
Langshans or Cochins
Where you have one of these
breeds already, and It suits your pur-
pose, select tho most vigorous hens,
preferably one or two years old, for
breeders. Next, secure cockerel not
related to these hens and mate them.

WOOlgrOwers To
Protest Raise

In several sections Of the coun-
try there is an agitation at the pres
ent time by certain government Of
fcials for the raising of grazing fees
on the national forests SO that these
fees will be approximately the same
as those charged on adjacent pri-
waite range.
WoolErowers are strenuously op-
posing this movement and in many
sections resolutions have already
been naesnd in this connection.
In this section this movement has
not heen considered seriously as yet
but it is probable that similar action
as elsewhere.
At a meeting called by the For
estrv nen"rtment and held at Poca-
tello. Idaho. November 3rd, 1923,
for the purpose of considering with
the stocf men users of the Caribou,
Cache, Targhee. Minidoka, Teton,
Wyoming and Bridger National For
ests the proposed plan of increasing
the grazing rates on the National
Forests to 2 fully commercial basis,
based rpon the cost of grazing on
private lands adjacent to the Ma
'ioihi ftltSlS, me IOllOWlnR TeSO-
luton was unanimously adopted:
We consider the plan of CONNER
cializing the grazing of the National
Forest as unwise, unjust, uncalled
for, and injurious to the livestock
industry.
In our opinion, this idea Is based
on wholly inadequate and
conception of the relation of the
livestock industry to the country as
a whole, and of the grazing re-
sources in the National forest to
livestock production in the western
states, and is entirely u~nprecedent-
ed in principle and contrary to the
policies of Il government.
We call attention to the fact that
grazing upon the National forest
now produces a revenue to the Fed
eral government amounting to So
100000 per annum in excess OF all
expenses connected with the grazing
administration of the forest.
We consider it very unfortunate
and unnecessary thai this question
should have been agitated over so
long a period and we earnestly re-
quest the Secretary of Agriculture
and the Forest Service to continue
the administration OF grazing along
the same lines of general broad
growing interests.

Owing to the check lists of the
lobbyists being so different from
| mine," said Senator Smith, when the
vote was taken, I'D like to have the
result announced"
The senate committee on federal
relations yesterday reported favora-
bly, the concurrent resolution offered
by Senator Richards, Republican of
Atlantic, calling upon congress to
nberaliZe the Volstead act so as to
make it conform to the spirit of the
eighteenth amendment" The meas
ure was placed on second reading
and will probably be voted upon to-
day.
Senator Richards is chairman of
the federal relations committee and
his measure is one of number of
resolutions and bills introduced in
the legislature all looking to the
modification or the eradication of
technical prohibition.
The resolution by Senate Majority
Leader Stevens, calling for an in
vestigation into the affairs of the
ousted state highway board, was sent
back to the senate yesterday after
having been passed in an amended
form by the House of Assembly.
The amendments were adopted by
the senate also and provide that in
stead of the senate president and the
speaker of the House naming three
members respectively, from the two
bodies as members of the committee
that the two presiding officers be
members of the probe committee
and that only two other senators
and assemblymen be named to fill
out the personnel of the probing
body.

| The undertaken bills offered in the
| senate by Senator Pierson, of Union,
| will have hard shedding to make the
| legislative grade, judging by the ac-
| tion of the senate yesterday. The
upper body refused to concur in the
amendments to one of the measures
put on the bill by the House. The
amendment was to change the word
license" to "licensee," a typograph-
zeal error, discovered after the bill
had passed the senate and had gone
to the House for passage. When
the amendment was moved by Sena-
tor Pierson he could not get enough
votes to have it adopted.
The bills would create a board of
undertakers' examiners and would
raise the requirements to become
an undertaken and embalmer.
A bill drawn. at the request of
State Commissioner of Motor Vehic-
les William l.. Dill, and introduced
by Assemblyman Howe, Essex. Re-
publican, which would have made
the process of securing an automo-
bile license more difficult, was de-
feated by the House yesterday by
vote of 26 to IS.
Despite the fact that Mr.. Howe
declared that the measure was
aimed at automobile thieves" the
House could not see the wisdom of
its provisions and thus voted it
down. The Essex man explained
that if the bill becomes a law, a
person appearing before an agent
for an automobile license would have
to present their last tax bill receipt
for the purpose of identifying their
residence.
The State Board of Control, Insti-
tutions and Agencies, including
Commissioner Burdette G. Lewis,
came in for bitter criticism during
the debate on the bill presented by
Assemblyman Sexsmith. This bill
which was passed, revises the poor
laws so that their provisions may
be administered from the state de-
partment of institutions and agen-
cies.
The measure was attacked by DEM
ocratic Leader George, who declared
that the commissioner of institutions
and his board of~control already has
too many powers. He condemned
their grabbing tactics. The mi
nority leader insisted that local ad-
lllHIStIdllOl was lIlS bSoL AOI etil
parties concerned. The vote by
which the bill was passed was S5
to II.
Bills passed by the House include:
House No. 53, Barkman, Morris,
permits municipalities to improve
road connected with state highway.
House No. 224, Harbourt, Mercer,
makes more drastic second violation
