MUDDLING PUBLIC BUSINESS

President Coolidges plans for economy carry
very little appeal to Senate Democrats. Senator

program at the National Capital was blocked by
the attempt of Florida Democrat to attach an
item for $SS,OOO,OOO for public buildings all over
the mIntry. The first week of the session also
HaF launching of Democratic drive to over
ride the Coolidge veto of the postal pay bill that
proposes to add $6S,OOO,OOO more to the taxpay-
ers burden. Republicans realize that enforcing
economy in their own departmental organiza-
tion and in Congress controlled by a Demo-
crat-radical combination are two different
things.

PEACE WITH INDEPENDENTS

President Coolidge-"At no period in the past
twelve years have our foreign relations been in
such satisfactory condition as they are at the
present time. Our actions in the recent months
have greatly strengthened the American policy
of permanent peace with independence. The at
titude which our Government took and maintain
ed toward an adjustment of European repara-
tons, by pointing out that it was not political
but a business problem, has demonstrated its
wisdom by it's actual results"

MILFORD, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1924

MANY LEGISLATORS will need no more than
the recent election-day suggestion that the coun-
try wants no hair-raising, throat-cutting legis-
lation. The tremendous rebuke of radicalism
has changed many a legislative ambition over
night.
Nowhere would it be out of place for business
organizations, Boards of Trade, oranges, and in
dviduals to call their legislators into friendly
counsel. Most legislators sincerely want to
serve their people; it is usually where the peo-
pie refuse to take an interest in public affairs
that they go off on their own personal tang
ents, wool-gathering in the maze Of unstabilized
speculation as to what is fright"
A little commonsense now. like the proverbial
stitch in time that saves nine, might eliminate
the nine superhuous laws to every one that is
really needed.

TAX BURDEN HALVED

President Coolidge-"The establishment of
system of drastic economy in public expendi-
ture, which has enabled us to pay off about one
fifth of the national debt since 1919, and almost
cut in two the national tax burden since 1921,
has been one of the main causes in re-establish-
ing a prosperity which has come to include
within it's benefits almost every one of our in
habitants. Economy reaches everywhere. It
carries blessing to everybody"

IN THIS ISSUE of the Milford Chronicle the
proposed plan for the handling of Delaware's
educational problem as suggested by Mr.. Pierre
S. dupont is offered in full While lengthy, the
entire proposition should be read carefully by
everybody you agree with the plan or
not Mr.. du POnt has spent thousands of dollars
in gathering the data and information which is
incorporated in the plan outlned and it has
been given to the public only after careful YER
iication on the part of those who have studied
the situation. This educational plan will be
to the General Assembly in the form
of a bill when it convenes next month. 1t is
the idea of men who have given it careful
thought and due consideration but it is not Of
fered by Mr. DUPONT as the ideal solution of Del
aware's school housing problem. It is open to
amendment; either by adding to or subtracting
from. 1t is the basis from which it is hoped
hat something tangable and progressive will
develop. 1t is interesting to note that the filing
Zee is wiped away in the proposed change, that
IN entirely new tax system is proposed, and that
he tax rate on real estate remains at twenty
i've cents on the hundred dollars of assessed
as at present. Additional revenue, I'M
Ter the DUPONT plan, would be derived from
stocks and bonds which at the present time are
lot taxed in Delaware In other words, the
ak burden will be lifted somewhat from the
shoulders of the farm owner and placed upon
he class holding non-taxable investments at the
present time. The plan is a step in the right
Erection and should be given very careful con-
liberation and study by all residents of Della
ware The legislature will be called upon to
'ass on this proposition very sOon and it is on
y by constructive criticisms that it will be i'm
roved upon. Read the proposed plan now. Read |
carefully and with open mind-then an

| THE LATEST POPULAR APPEAL that is be-
ing made to legislatures and voters is the es-
tablishment of compulsory automobile insur-
ance which has many arguments in its favor as
measure to protect the public.
It is altogether probable that compulsory au-
just as has workingmen's compensation been
adopted in practically all states.
This will not be the issue for the people to
consider, however. The real issue will be
competition by private companies in the auto
mobile insurance field VS.. state monopoly of this
kind of business"
Let the state pass its laws requiring proper
safeguards for life and property, then let pri-
vate industry operate under and in conformity
with these laws.
The government has provided pure food act
to protect the public. 1t was not necessary for
the government to start canneries meat pack
ing plants and all the other manufacturing Op-
erations necessary to give the people food in
compliance with the law. 1t was simply neces-
sary for the government to enforce it's man
dates.
The same applies to insurance. The govern
ment can specify what it deems best in the pub
lie interest on this matter and then see that it's
mandates are carried out both by individuals
and companies furnishing service under the
law. This is the real issue for the public to
consider.

IT SEEMS HARD TO REALIZE that the
great Christian holiday of Christmas is only six
days distant for the year of 1924 So much has
been crowded into the past two months which
was of absorbing interest and of so great i'm
portance to all the people, that the time went
swiftly and brought the Christmas season alb
ruptly to our attention. The national election
with all its tense interests, came in early days
of last month, while Thanksgiving followed so
quickly upon that strenuous period that the
people had little time to relax or adjust them
selves to the holiday season; yet it is at hand,
with its anxieties and perplexities. Only six
days more and the home comings, the greetings
of loved ones and the happy memories of other
days, with the reminiscent social gatherings,
will bring joy to the elderly, the young and to
those who are in the full strength and beauty
of their lives. May good digestion wait upon ap-
petite and may all have a feast according to
their desires of good wholesome turkey and that
which is prepared for the Christmas season.

24,7OO cows ARE UNDER TEST

Eighty.four Minnesota COW testing
associations, testing 24,700 cows, were
in active operation in April, accord
ing to the report of E. A. Hanson OF
University Farm, in charge OF this
work. New associations have been
formed in Becker, Pipestone, Murray.
Redwood, Todd and Isanti counties.
Blue Earth Association No. 2, with
306 cows under test, led all other as
sociations for April with an average
butterfat production per cow OF 1874
pounds The Hutchinson-Biscay as
ISOLATION, AL cows, was second with
average butterfat production Of 34.1
pounds. Blue Earth No. /, 336 cows
was a close third with average but
terfat production Of "a pounds.
Crandall & Danforth of the South
ern Dakota County association had
the highest producing herd in April
the average butterfat production be
ing $50 pounds. However, there are
only four cows in this herd as against
16 in the herd Of Nelson & Mulch OF
the Blue Earth No. 2 association
which produced an average Of sos
pounds Of butterfat for the month.
The highest producing cow MIXED
three or four times daily gave 1908
pounds of butterfat in April She is
a graded Holstein owned by Crandall
& Danforth Of the Southern Dakota
County association. The highest
producing cow MIXED twice daily is
owned by J. A. Bauman Of Jackson
County No. and had a record Of S8.S
pounds of butterfat in April. She is
purebred Holstein.
One hundred six of the 1876 cows in
Blue Earth No. association gained
the 40 pound merit class, according
to the April report of E. L. Smith,
tester. Seven Improbable cows were
sold for slaughter and IL for daily
purposes. Four faulty separators
were detected. The tester aided in
the sale of two purebred herd sires
and helped one member select foun.
dalton stock for new purebred herd.
These are things which show the
value and Importance of cow testing
associations.

ALFALFA THRIVES
ON SANDY LAND
Successful Experience Of Sher-
burne County Farmer Told in
New ~" Bulletin.
Edited by the Agricultural Extension
Dept. University of Minnesota.

Edited by the Agricultural Extension
Dept, University Of Minnesota.
Seeking advice and counsel from
time to time from the farm crops spe-
cialists Of the university, ]. H. Craft
of Zimmerman, Sherburne county,
has developed prosperous dairy
farm on the wind-blown sand land of
that part Of Minnesota.
Mr.. Craft had had no previous
farm experience when in 1901 he pur-
chased the first S0-acre unit OF his
present farm OF 240 acres In the
winter Of 1911 he visited University
Farm to learn whether there was
crop that could be grown on his sandy
acres that would support dairy herds
and other livestock. The university
men recommended Grimm alfalfa be-
cause successful stands had been Sc
cured on sandy lands underlaid by
gravel on the prairies south OF Mon
ticello, Wright county.
Mr.. Craft returned home resolved
to follow out the suggestions Of the
university men. In the years since
he has sown Grimm alfalfa until he
now has SO acres In that crop. In all
recent years but one he has produced
all the alfalfa seed needed on his
place in increasing this acreage and
in some years has had seed for sale.
Alfalfa has solved the hay problem
on his farm, he says, and in large
measure is meeting the demand for
pasturage as we'll, although much still
remains to be learned regarding the
best practices in the use of alfalfa
for this purpose. Before 1912 only
two cows were kept on the farm, but
in 1913, after an alfalfa hay supply
was assured, a purebred sire was
purchased and the herd was gradu-
ally increased to IA. In 1920 five
purebred females were added to the
herd. Each COW, fed alfalfa hay,
corn silage, a mixture OF ground corn
and cob-meal, and ground oats, is
good for a cream check OF from $40
to $50 every month. Here Is what
Mr.. Craft says about this wonderful
forage plant and what it has done for
him: IF it hadn't been for alfalfa
I wouldn't have stayed on the farm.
Alfalfa Is the only crop can depend
on for hay every year. I could not
afford to keep cows without depen-
dable feed supply"
What Mr.. Craft has done other
men on the light sandy soils Of Min
nesota can do. Because Of its extern
sive root system, which penetrates to
the deepest moisture bearing strata
Of earth, alfalfa is peculiarly adapt,
ed to sandy soils. Facts concerning
Mr.. Crafts experience are interesting.

MEMORIAL FOR GRIMM URGED
VIII Be Erected on Farm Where He
Grew His Alfalfa.

University men and members Of the
Minnesota Alfalfa Growers associa'
ton will on Tuesday, June 10, dedi-
cate an enduring memorial to Wen
delin Grimm who propagated from a
handful of seed brought with him
from Germany that hardy alfalfa
which has been given his name.
Tho memorial will take the form
Of a gigantic boulder, bearing a
bronze plate inscription, which will
be set up on the very farm in Carver
county on which Grimm grew and de-
veloped his alfalfa. Persons plan
ming to attend are urged to meet at
10 a. m. on June 10 in the park at
Excelsior. At 1890 a procession OF
automobiles bearing the company will
leave for the site of the memorial in
Carver county.
Beginning his experiments with al
ialfa growing before the war, it was
not until 1890 or later that Grimm
alfalfa came into notice as superior
variety. Eventually Minnesota Elk
pertinent Station men became inter
ested and 1t was a university profess
Ior who suggested that the variety be
named for the man who had so per-
sistently and patiently propagated It.
Alfalfa is fast becoming the major
legume crop in Minnesota. Its adapt.
ability to sandy lands encourages the
belief that dairy farming can be prose
cuted with great success on what have
been considered waste lands in vari-
Gus northern counties.
