the Winnepeg market. But In the fall,
after the tariff became effective our
Minneapolis price on hard spring
wheat ranged from "a cents to 81
cents above the Winnepeg prices. And
Mr.. Walsh voted against the emer-
gency tariff and by his vote declared
that the Montana farmer should not

the benefit of the farmer.
Now monument for the terrible
wheat-draw back, or rebate provision
of the tariff law. Under this provis-
ion the importer pays full duty on the
wheat and receives refund of 80 Der
cent Of the duty paid when the flour
produced by the wheat is exported.
And one of the stipulations of this
law is that 80 per cent of American
wheat must have been mixed with it.
The records of the Department Of
Agriculture show that in all Of the
history Of the existing tariff law up.
to the first of last January the tota
number of bushels Of wheat upon

nothing new, even through some Of
our Democratic friends appear to have

away back in 1889 with the very first

an issue and are barking up rose

The real trouble with wheat prices
Is that we produce . surplus of wheat
every year-a surplus which the do
mestic market will not, at a fair ex-
change value, absorb, so that this sur
plus practically fixes the market price
OF the whole crop Of domestic wheat,
except that Of hard spring wheat. This
condition is q serious problem and one
which must be solved, but the reduc-
taon of the tariff ON wheat will not
solve it. II will, as any thinking man
can see, only emphasize the condition

VIII Be Big Factor
In Industrial World

While but twenty-seven years DID,
young Hugo SHINES is now managing
the estate of hundreds of millions that
belonged TO the great German industrl-
alist. He is thus described by DR..
Ludwig Stein, German publicist, IN
Hearst International Magazine:
i first met young SHINES in 1918.
He was eighteen, shy, reticent and re-
served, but extraordinarily mature and
intelligent 1 talked with him a long
time and enjoyed the conversation at
least as much as he did.
The next day / saw his father ana
he said, Junior is much brighter and
ADLER than / am adding that some
day the young man would succeed to
the control of the SHINES interests.
If young SHINES knows much about
business it is because he was always
in such close touch with his father.
1t was the custom of the elder SHINES
to hold nightly conferences with his
wife, son and daughters, during which
he would speak with the utmost free
dom of his business plans and pros
poets. These conferences perhaps did
not mean much to the ladies, but they
enabled young Hugo to see exactly
how his father went about it to carry
on his great enterprises.
During the war, young SHINES was
sent by, his father to Scandinavia on
innumerable secret errands of BUSH
ness ana lolitics. For months in sue
cession he was on trains running be-
tween Berlin and Stockholm most of
the time. On these errands he con-
ferred with bankers, statesmen and
diplomatists. To them he must have
appeared like a youth. But it Is in
dicative of his temperament and his
ability that he gained both the re-
spect of those with whom he conferred
and the undisguised appreciation of
his father. On these errands, Junior
always made good He accomplished
what his father wished him to do"

Spot was little white dog with
shaggy white hair and little pink
nose.
He was a cousin Of Snowfall, an
other dog who belonged to cousin
of Spots mistress.
SNOWFALL was white and shaggy and
little and a great pet.
Whenever Spots mistress went to
visit her cousin, Spot went along, too.
It was quite little journey by
train, but he was never left at home.
He had special basket in which he
travelled, and his mistress carried the
basket.
When he arrived he always had a
beautiful time. He played with Snow
ball, he played with the different. mem
bers of the family, he sat up on his
hind legs and begged" prettily for
good things to eat.
He looked now at the new rabbits
which had arrived since they had last
been here.
There were six of them, and they
were very white and soft and fluffy
and their little noses were pink.
The last time he had been here
there had been six or seven cunning lit
tie turtles. They had been amusing.

Tankage Will Increase
Rate of Gain in Hogs

During the summer of 1923 SO hogs
were carried on a 120-day feeding test
by the University Of Nebraska to de
termine if tankage is necessary when
good alfalfa pasture is available. The
SO pigs, weighing around 81 pounds
apiece, were placed in separate lots.
Two lots were seeded to alfalfa and
the third was dry.
The highest daily gain per head was
made In the alfalfa lot that received
shelled corn and tankage. The gain in
that lot was Ia pounds as compared
with .65 pounds in the alfalfa lot re-
ceiving no tankage and 1.25 pounds in
the dry lot where corn and tankage
were fed.
The feed cost per 100 pounds Of
gain ran highest for the pigs on al
falfa that received no tankage and
lowest on the alfalfa lot fed tankage.
The three lots ranked as follows: AL
falfa, shelled corn and tankage, $5.11 !;
dry lot, corn and tankage $3.50; al
falfa and shelled corn, $685.. Prices
at that time on corn were rs cents a
bushel; tankage, $65 a ton, and pas
ture, one-half cent a day.
The pigs in the lot which received
no tankage practically destroyed the
alfalfa by roofing, while those receiv-
ing tankage and alfalfa did not root
at all. 1t was found that tankage
greatly increased the rate of gain, re-
duced the cost of 100 pounds gain and
saved the pasture.

Paris Designer Exploits Louis XIV Period Styles

Redfern uses all the latitude of mod
ern fashion to make his collection in
teresting, observes a Paris fashion
writer. He has period gowns Of Louis
XIV and directoire style, and in con-
trast he has the simple, straight dress
with just enough width to walk. He
also emphasizes the godet and much
gathered fullness. The Spanish inau-
ence is recognized only once in the
collection and that is in black dress
which has a long silk fringe and a
draped stole scarf which is also edged
with fringe. The Spanish effect is
heightened by the hat that accom-
panies it-a hard black felt with a
straight brim.
A feature Of the collection is the
talbot collar, which adorns number
of dresses and coats. This designer
is also attempting to revive the three
quarter length cape and has two ex-
amples in royal blue velvet, one
trimmed with chinchilla and gathered
into a band of the fur at the hem, the
other plain and with gray squirrel
collar.
The most striking dress is that called

REDUCE DEATH LOSS
IN SHIPPING HOGS

At nine of the principal live stock
markets during a six-months period
In 1929 there were received total of
28,375 dead hogs and 38,7O8 in more
or less crippled condition. Very re
cent reports from the yards at Denver
show that the losses there during the
past two weeks have been extremely
heavy, five or six dead hogs in car
being nothing uncommon, and In one
instance thirteen dead hogs were
found in one carload.
In eliminating the losses the first
thing, of course. is to get at the cause.
The minimum load for freight car
is 1900 pounds. In the case above
where there were thirteen dead hogs
In the load, at the point of origin
this load weighed $4,000 which is 1000
pounds in excess of the maximum al
lowed by the insurance companies.
The insurance company, of course, re-
fused to meet the loss because the
car was loaded in excess of their
specified maximum. In most of the
cars coming into the Denver yards
with dead hogs the cars were over
loaded, so that overlooking is with
out a doHbt one of the principal
causes of loss in shipping.
There are other factors which cause
losses in shipping during hot weather.
Overlooking at time of loading is
without question important. A hog
with an empty stomach has much
better chance of reaching the market
in good condition than one that has
had full feed just before being load
ed. Hogs which are over filled are
very APT to become overheated and
get sick. If the weather is warm, it Is
better to feed a little less at the last
regular feeding period before loading.
The shipper should see that the car
Is well cleaned out, especially If 1t has
manure In it as manure is very liable
to be cause of great deal of heat
In the car. After the car is well
cleaned, 1t should be bedded down
with two or three inches of sand or
fine gravel; cinders are also good but
possibly not as cooling in the summer
as sand or gravel. Before loading
the bedding should be well wet down.
Ice in gunny sacks hung in the cen
ter of each half OF the car will also
help to lower the temperature.
When loading hogs in the summer
time keep in mind that the greatest,
cause of death is due to overload
ing. 1t Is better to load little I'M

He Looked Now at the New Rabbits

But he was told now that the turtles
had gone to sleep in their mud beds
for the winter.
Spot couldn't imagine a mud bed be-
ing very nice. He always had nice
soft bed with big cushion on it. But
then the turtles were funny, anyway.
He had thought the way they lived
in their shell homes all the time was
most strange and they had spent their
time in the water when he had been
here last and had not bothered to ex-
plain why they did this.
Perhaps they had, but then they
talked turtle talk, and he only knew
dogs talk and peoples talk.
He could understand all that the
people said.
Well, he had a beautiful visit and
enjoyed himself immensely, but when
it was time to go home he went and
shifted at his basket, for he had heard
his mistress asking what time the train
left, and he knew that meant that they
would be starting pretty soon.
He went and crawled inside his bas-
ket, as though to say:
"Here am, all ready to start. Why
should there be any more delay?'
But they told him that they were
not quite ready to start, and t0 come
out again.
So he came out once more and sat
on his hind legs as though to say:
please let's start now"
Then he thought perhaps that was
not very polite, so he wagged his tail
as though to say to these cousins:
"We had a charming time. Thanks
so much for having us. Delicious food,
pleasant society, charming time"
But after awhile it was really time
to get ready and Spot got in his bas-
ket and with one paw waving a good
by and his tail wagging his thanks,
they were off.
Down at the station it was raining,
so he went inside the waiting room
with his mistress and sat up in her
lap.
Then the train came along and she
told him to get in his basket Whlcn
was down on the floor.
He bounded down and into the bas-
ket and the people all around smiled
at such a smart little dog.
And then they started for home In
the train.
1t wasn't very long trip, and some
might have left their little dog at
ZONE, but his mistress didn't.
No, he went travelling, too. He
liked to go where his mistress did, and
he enjoyed visiting and good com
pany" food.
But when he turned around three
times and then curled himself into a
comfortable position upon his home
pillow that night he said to himself !:

comfortable of all"

Wraps and Things
for Women's Wear
Late Paris Displays Show
Very Few Real Tailor
Made Dresses.

The time has come, so Paris says, to
talk Of winter things-of sleeves and
skirts and wraps and tunics planned
by fashion kings. Latest word from
that city gives the information that
the smartest displays show very few
real tailOr-made dresses, and these
few have very simple straight short
Jackets with belts not much lower
than normal waistline.
Many belted jumpers are shown in
plain kasha velvet, jersey crepe, full
gurante and satin, and are quite long
and straight.
The sweaters are fastened with a
few buttons either at the top, middle
front or side, like Russian blouses.
Also few buttons are places yerti-
cally at the sides to tighten the bot
tom. These jumpers are worn with
very short skirts, plated, straight,
portefeuille or shaped three-piece,
with long redingotes, either straight
or shaped, with many seams, remind
ing one of princess robe, not quite
so narrow at the waist, but wider at
the bottom. These are made in vel

Grinding Buckwheat for
Cattle or HOGS Is Best

Buckwheat can best be fed to fat
tening cattle or hogs by grinding 1t
rather coarsely and feeding it dry.
Much better results are secured
where buckwheat forms only about
cne-third Of the ration, especially
when fed to hogs. Because of its
coarse outside huh, buckwheat con-
tains too much fiber to give the best
results when fed alone to hogs. The
best results wiz be secured when it
is fed along with corn and tankage in
a mixture of SO per cent corn 80 per
cent buckwheat, and 10 per cent tank
age. Practically the same results will
be secured as where ration of 80 per
cent corn and 10 per cent tankage is
used
