the d. z. A., as it is called in Ger
many, addressed a meeting in Min
neapolis Monday at which he told OF
the appalling fate that threatens the
child life of Germany unless Americas
aid intervenes.
Nearly all the children are stunted
in size owing to the hardships through
which they have passed. Prolonged
undernourishment however has had
more serious consequences than sim
ply stunning the growth. Ricketts,, in
younger children particularly, is pre-
valent, causing deformities of the
bones of the body. And, the sorrow
full part of it is that the actual food
is not in Germany. It must be ship
ped in. That the work is being well
administered by the Quakers is stating
only part of the real facts Aside
from the efficiency of the organization,
above all is the Christ of brotherly
love that prompts their every move
Future generations of Germans will
bear in their hearts and in their very
lives gratitude to America which no.
thing can destroy. News Letter.

two important points, the evident be-
lief of Congress that it is not obliged
to give heed to anything that the
President says, the seeming willing
ness on the part of Congress to find
new grounds of disagreement-all of
these are weathervanes pointing in
that direction
The President has told Congress
that in the investigation of Treasury
affairs, particularly in the employ
ment of Francis j. Heney, who was
to be paid out of the personal pocket
of Senator, it is exceeding its pow
er and encroaching upon that of the
Executive. There was some vigorous
talk as the result of this. Some Sena-
tors stanchly supported the Presi-
| dents position. Others talked of ex-
| punging the message from the record.
And, after the talk, things went on
pretty much as they would have gone
| in any event.
The President has told Congress
that 1T ought not to embarrass the
Government by writing Japanese ex-
clusion clause into the immigration
Law. In the face of that, both houses
passed the Japanese exclusion mea-
sure by tremendous majorities, some
of the most regular of regular Re-
publicans being it's most active pro-
ponents.
If there could be such thing as a
disinterested observer, he could hardly
doubt that Congress is undertaking to
make itself supreme.
There have been efforts of the kind
before. In 1887 the House of Re-
representatives. appointed select COM
mittee to investigate all of the execu-
tive departments. The President was
requested and the heads of depart
ments instructed to appear before the
committee and give evidence, as Pre-
sldent jackson construed it, against
themselves. He sent his secretary to
the committee with note to the effect
that he would "repel all such attempts
as violation of the principles of
Justice as well as of the Constitution"
That ended the investigation.
The fact that practical dictator oc-
cupied the White House at that time
put quietus on Congressional am
bltion which has lasted for almost
ninety years. President Coolidge, in
the nature of things, cannot speak in
quite the vigorous terms that Presi-
dent Jackson employed A supreme
executive power is no more to be de-
sired than a supreme legislative pow
er. But it is not seriously to be
doubted that the sentiment of the
country would be behind the Presi-
dent in making it entirely clear to
Congress that this will continue to
be Government of coordinate pow

Good Pointer for Seed
Corn Picker Given Ont

II you wish to keep your corn In a
constant state of improvement, the
thing to do is to select for vigor with
out close attention for score card type.
That is the new word, based on years
of careful study and experiment at the
Minnesota experiment station, Univer-
sity farm, st. Paul.
For several years the Minnesota ex-
pertinent station has carried on activi-
ties designed to encourage the selection
of seed corn from the standing stalks
in the field before frost time In the fall
The idea was to get early maturing
corn from vigorous plants. But now
comes III. X. Hayes, plant breeder of
the division Of agronomy and farm
management with a new bulletin, No.
210 of the Minnesota experiment sta
ton series, Methods of Corn Breed
ing" which among other things says:
Corn should be selected from per
fect-stand hills and from vigorous
healthy stalks. Plants which are green
when the ear approaches maturity in
sure normal maturity of the ear.
"Close selection for ear type leads to
a reduction in yielding ability For
this reason no close selection for ear
type should be made"

Cocklebur Plants Found
Poisonous to All Stock

Cocklebur plants are poisonous to
swine, cattle, sheep, and chickens, &C
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. This weed has
long been suspected. but many persons
thought that deaths reported from this
cause were produced by the mechanical
action Of the burs rather than by the
toxic effect of the plant. While the
burs may produce some mechanical
injury, and while the seeds are very
poisonous, stock poisoning, the depart
ment says, is caused by feeding on the
very young plants before the develop
ment OF true leaves.
To avoid losses from this cause the
most important thing is to prevent the
animals from eating the weed. II
there is shortage of good forage, they
may eat enough of the young cookie
burs to cause serious results. Feeding
milk to pigs Immediately after they
have eaten the weed has proved bene-
fetal, probably because of the fat con
tent. Good results also may be ex
pected by feeding them bacon grease,
lard, or linseed oil.

Arrange Official Grain
Standards for Sorghums

An order promulgating official grain
standards of the United States for
grain sorghums to become effective De-
cember 1. 1924, was issued on August
% by the Secretary Of Agriculture.
The Department of Agriculture is
sued in 1922 a circular containing
grades for grain sorghums which were
recommended for use by the grain
trade and inspection departments, but
were not made official under the grain
standards act. Since that time these
recommended standards have been
adopted by state grain inspection de-
partments as well as by commercial
inspection departments and have
worked out satisfactorily. Repeated
requests have beeen received by the de-
partment that the standards be made
official in order that interested parties
may have the benefit of supervision
and appeal under the act
In making the standards official no
change was made in the grades or re-
quirements as set forth in the recon-
mended grades for the reason that they
have been In satisfactory commercial
operation for the past two years.

Poisonous Gases Formed

That poisonous gases formed in silos
overnight while in process of being

warning of the United States Depart

If there is no circulation of air this
gas remains In considerable volume
Death may result from entering a silo
containing this gas.
A precaution recommended by gov
eminent specialists will avert the
danger of entering a gas-filled silo.

Air currents stirred up by the blow

Larger Consumption
of Dairy Products
Per Capita on Farms Much
Greater Than in Cities.

prepared by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.)
The increasing Importance Of dairy
ing in the United States as a source
of the nations food supply is striking
iy brought out In study just COM
pleted by Il. Il. Pirtle of the dairy and
poultry products marketing division
OF the United States Department Of
Agriculture. The per capita consump-
tion of milk and cream has increased
about ~ per cent during the past ten
years, and per capita consumption of
butter has increased more than per
cent, Mr.. Pirtle says.
Special efforts have been made by
the department during the past two
years TO obtain data on the consump-
ton OF dairy and poultry products on
farms. Based upon reports from 3d.
600 township crop reporters In all
parts of the country 1t is shown that
the per capita consumption Of milk
and cream on farms Is much larger
than in cities. The average per capita.
consumption on farms with cows last
year was approximately 81 gallons
whereas the average for the entire
country was only SO gallons. Average
consumption Of milk and cream on
farms ten years ago was only ~ gall
Ions.
Farm consumption OF butter has
also increased greatly, being now
more than double the average for the
United States Per capita consump-
tion of butter on farms last year is
placed at 3S pounds as compared with
an average Of IL pounds for the coun-
try as a whole. This farm consump-
ton shows an Increase of over two
pounds per capita since 1913.
The average person on farms also
eats about one case of eggs a year,
and about one fowl per month, Mr.
Pirtle says.
