Why Congress and Country Get Rest

IT Is an open secret that when
President Harding decided not to
call an extra session of congress
official Washington breathed a sigh
of relief
To be sure, when he came to his
decision, everything pointed to the
failure Of the pending ship subsidy
bill, through the inability Of its spon-
sors to bring it to vote in the senate
The President, however, concluded
that 1t would be a waste of time to
have the bill taken up again by the
new congress In an extra session
There were other reasons for the
Presidents decision. He thought the
country needed a long rest from con-
grese;onaI agitation. The rest is espe-
cialIy desired by business interests
which have been uneasy over certain
tendencies of a considerable portion of
the membership Of the senate and
house regarded by the business inter-
estS as radical.
OF special interest in this connection
!f the Presidents decision to take no
further steps toward an investigation
of the railroad situation during the
congressional recess.

Progress of the Birth Control Bill Seen

bills, have received only one adverse
letter each up to the present.
The protest to Senator Cummins
came from John Sumner, successor to
Anthony Comstock as head Of the
New York Society for Suppression of
Vice. ComStock initiated the old stat.
ute which the Cummins- Kissel bill
would amend by taking out the words
that prohibit circulation of scientific
knowledge as to the control of con-
ception.
Although the birth control advocates
finally have succeeded in getting the
bill before congress, there is a dem
onstration Of official timidity there in
dealing with this vexatious social is
sue in which multitudes of people are
deeply interested. Members Of both
houses realize that the practice of
birth control has been growing in this
country, particularly among what are
called the upper classes" They
know that books, magazine articles
and studies have appeared in the last
few years dealing with this subject
There Is a Washington office in
charge Of energetic and jealous advo-
Gates. There is campaign paper,
called the Birth Control Herald, which
is described as the offs"ial organ of
the league.

XKTASHINGTON.-Something of a
w furor has been stirred up in
naval, political and diplomatic circles
here by the publication in the Allan
tic Monthly of an article written by
Hector Bywater, celebrated British
naval authority, calling the Washing
ton armament conference a patent
failure" in it's main purpose and de-
scribing in rather frank manner how
the japanese outwitted the American
delegates.
Senator Robinson Oem., Ark.) laid
the article before the senate and had
1t published In the Congressional

the case in a sentence: Japan, by
diverting to the construction of cruis-
ers and submarines no small part Of
the energy she formerly expended on
capital ships, will soon be in posses
sion of fleet of auxiliary combatant
vessels superior In some respects to
that Of any other power"
Mr.. Bywater says that as soon as
Japan learned that the Washington
government was contemplating a
naval armament conference it set to
work feverishly to complete the for
tification of the BONN islands under
the strictest secrecy. BY December,
1921, the work was finished
Meanwhile" says Mr.. Bywater,
"the Washington conference had
assembled and Admiral Baron Kato
Of the Japanese delegation had taken
the first opportunity to inform his
American colleagues that Japan re-
garded the abandonment Of the Phil
ippine and Guam Notifications as the
condition precedent to negotiations
for the reduction of her shirbuilding

Development of Water Transportation

7NHERE are numerous indications
Il that tremendous development of
water transportation in this country
Is at hand. High freight rates and
the inability of the railroads to f.
nance extensions and the additional
equipment required by increased agri-
cultural and Industrial production are
acCelerating the development of other
means Of transportation, notably
motCrtrucks and vessels.
Reviving prosperity indicates that
the day is not far distant when every
carrier resource of the country will
be taxed to the limit The demand
for adequate and cheap transporta-
ton then will be so great, it is cal
culated, as to carry the st. Lawrence
Seawey and the lakes to the gulf
waterway projects to swift consum-
nation making the Great Lakes sys-
TEN the greatest waterway in the
world In volume Of commerce
Already Washington is being bonn
barded by the Slipping interests with
appeals to remove alleged rate dis
examinations that have grown up in
favor of all rail transportation and
against water or rail and water car
riage. Such determinations it is as
serted, are hampering the develop
ment of waterways to meet transpor-
tation needs.

julius Barnes, president of the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States, has called conference of
transportation and shipping interests
to study the rate structure and other
problems with a view to removing oh
stacles to the expansion of transit
facilities.
One Of the most comprehensive
presentations of the complaint of rate
discrimination against Great Lakes
traffic has been made to the federal
coal commission by H. e. Smith, pres
ident of the Northwestern Coal Dock
Operators association, and Fred G.
Hartwell of Chicago. They told the
commission that except in the case of
strikes, shortages and high prices of
coal are due exclusively to lack of
transportation.

Thousands Of girls have to work in

Soy Beans With Corn
Do Not Lessen Yield

There is no decrease in yield of corn
when soy beans are planted with the
corn, judging by results at the Ohio
experiment station. Over period Of
three years each acre of soy beans and
corn, planted for hogging down, made
100 pounds more grain to the acre than
corn alone.
When planted for silage, corn and
soy beans showed even more decided
advantages. Corn alone averaged 50
tons Of silage to the acre; the corn
soy bean combination, 11.2 tons to the
acre. The combination proved most
profitable in wet seasons. The poorer
the soil, the more likely are corn and
soy beans to be good business. The
corn and soy beans can be drilled to-
gether at the same time. The soy-bean
seed should be inoculated. Lime the
soil. if sour.
Dairy cows receiving corn-soy bean
silage need less bran and oilmeal than
those receiving corn silage. Figuring
the protein at cents pound, and the
carbohydrates at 1 cent pound, the
mixed crop has been found worth
about Sc more to the acre than corn
alone.

Federal meat-inspection records for
the year 1922 show that an average of
one hog out Of every seven slaughtered
In establishments under federal in
spection during the year showed les
ions of tuberculosis. Altogether, 3d.
416, 439 hogs were slaughtered under
federal inspection IN 1922, and $780,
061 of them showed LESSONS of the
disease.
Hogs are infected principally by fol-
lowing diseased cattle in the feed Lot
and by drinking milk from tuberculous
cattle. Because of the short feeding
period of hogs, the tuberculous LESSONS
are usually localized; the head and
glands of the neck are most commonly
affected. However, 1t is estimated
that in 1922 more than 100000
worth of pork was condemned as unfit
for human food on account of tubercu-
losis. This is but part of the total
loss sustained by the nation on ac-
count of tuberculosis in hogs. Animals
affected with the disease cannot make
the best gains, and the danger to
human health is factor always to be
considered
The vigorous campaign being con-
Quoted for the eradication of this
dread disease has resulted up to
March 1, 1923, in 24,132 accredited
herds in the United States, in which
more than half million cattle have
been pronounced free from tubercu-
losis. Every herd that is freed re-
duces the menace to the hog industry.

Advantages of Motor
Trucks in Corn Belt

The experience of other farmers who
have owned motortrucks is the best
guide in determining if one will prove
profitable on farm and if so what
size will prove most profitable, accord
ing to the United States Department
of Agriculture. Farmers Bulletin 1914,
sMotortrucks on Corn Belt Farms" by
III. r. Tolley and L. M. Church of the
division of agricultural engineering, is
just off the press and gives data based
on the experience of over 500 grain
and livestock farmers located in the
Corn Belt who have owned motor
trucks for more than two years. From
these men there has been collected in
formation on size of truck used, cost
of operation, amount of hauling done
and the advantages and disadvantages
of owning truck. The bulletin is in
tended for use primarily in the section
where the data were collected but will
be of interest to farmers in other Sec
tons. Copies may be obtained upon

Experiment With Live
Stock at Many Points

At 20 principal points outside of
Washington the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture is conducting ex-
perimental livestock work. Problems
in feeding and breeding of live stock, in
the prevention and control of insects,
parasites and predatory animals harm
full to live stock, and other subjects
related to the welfare of the live stock
of the United States are studied. The
stations have been. so located that it is
possible to study problems confronting
live stock men under conditions SINH
lar to the actual conditions on the farm
or range. This makes the results of
greatest value, because the live stock
grower can apply them without great
modification.
