CONTRACTS FOR SWEET CREAM


The Minnesota Cooperative Cream
cries association has been successful
in making contracts for 200 cars of
40 per cent sweet cream to be de-
livered in regular weekly shipments.
At the present time the association
is shipping six cars of sweet cream
in 10 gallon cans weekly to the east
ern markets and in addition is ship
ping four cars of frozen sweet cream.
This is entirely new bust ness for
Minnesota creameries which has been
worked up by their marketing associa-
ton. Shipping sweet cream reduces
the amount of butter to be made and
put on the wholesale markets to that
extent" General Manager A. ]. Nc
CURE says in an interview with a
Farm Bureau representative. "Rath-
er than to have a big make of butter
in May, June and July, all dumped
on one or two markets, the association
is availing itself of sweet cream and
unsalted butter outlets so as to bal
ance production with consumption, ;"
The demand for Land O'Lakes
print butter has forced the print room
of the association to work at top
speed with day and night shifts of
late. All records were broken one
day last week when $4,000 pounds of
butter was put UP in quarters, halves
and one pound prints.

5000 Potato Reports
Returned in Single Week
Decrease In Acreages In Ex-
change Backs Up Government
Crop Reports

Over 5000 Minnesota farmers,
members of the State Potato Growers
Exchange, have reported their 1925
acreage to the office at st. Paul, ac-
cording to S. E Elliott, in charge of
the associations field service depart
ment.
''This response to our request for
prompt reports is one of the best in
dications that we could have with re-
spect to 1925-26 operations" said
Mr.. Elliott. ga year ago, it took
three months to get 5000 reports in
to the state office. The fact that ov-
err 5000 already have sent back their
cards indicates that our members now
appreciate the necessity for giving
the administrative officers definite fig
ures on which to base their plans"
Reports received thus far consti-
tute 60 per cent of the maximum
membership and about rs per cent of
what reasonably could be expected.
The fact that these reports are near
ly 90 per cent of the total number of
deliveries last year indicates that the
Exchange is in stronger position
than ever, considering the state as a
whole.
Though June 10 was the time limit
set for sending in their cards, every
day of last week saw the arrival of
large numbers at the state office.
These late arrivals made it impossible
to compile lists of those who had not
reported, hence it was decided to
keep the records open until the end
of the month.
A special report blank will appear
in the next issue of the Potato Grow
err, official house organ of the Ex-
change, on which all members who
have not reported are asked to send
in their acreage.

President Cooldge's hobby has a,

pushing different buttons. get his
mount to gallop, trot, pace, canter,
raise up on its hind legs, and a lot

dreamed of.
This horse IS similar TO the ones
used by passengers on ocean liners
to timber up. In fact, friend of the
Presidents, who had used one on a
sea trip, suggested this hobby to Mr..
Coolidge. From the very day II was
installed in the White House the
President has used it in his usual
systematic way. Three times day,
and sometimes more, he mounts this
horse and goes through about 10
minutes of canned horseback riding
He takes one of these rides just as

"CoW PUNCHER" IN YOUTH.
DR.. Jardine Started ION His Own
at Fifteen.

William NJ. Jardine began his ca
reer as cattle puncher" in the IA
nous Big Hole Basin of Montana.
Born on a ranch in Idaho in 1879,
when that country was still an Indian
frontier, he started to make his own
way at the age of Is and sought first
the hardy life of a Montana ranger.
At the age of 20, however he forsook
the lariat and the saddle for a degree
at the Utah Agricultural College.
Years on the range had intensified
rather than dulled the students intel
lectual capacity, and it was not long
after he had been graduated before
he was summoned back to his alma
mater to become dean of it's agricul-
tural department. His doctors de-
gree came soon afterward and then
his researches in grain attracted the
attention of the Department of Agri-
culture in Washington.
In 1906 DIR. Jardine came to Wash
ington and became assistant United
States cerealist in charge of the grain
work in the western half of the
country. Four years later he as
sumed directorship of agronomy work
at the Kansas State Agricultural
College. After occupying several
other important chairs in that college
he became it's president in 1918.
AS head OF agricultural production
In Kansas during the World War, DR..
Jardine won national fame. He was,
In addition to president of the Kansas
State Agricultural College, agricul-
tural advisor to the American Bank
ers' Association and lecturer at the
national school for the training of
chamber of commerce secretaries.
AS a writer on agricultural subjects
he is well known, and was one of the
most ardent opponents of the McNary-
Haugen bill which was defeated in the
House of Representatives.

LEAGUE AID ASKED
IN GREEK-TURK ROW
Former Appeals for Action in

GENEVA, February 11.-Greece has
appealed to the League of Nations

pelIing the Most Rev. Constantinos,
ecumenical patriach of the Greek
Catholic Church, from Constantionple,
claiming that this action endangers
the friendly relations between the

Greece bases her appeal on Para

the friendly right OF each member
of the league to bring to the atten-
ton of the assembly or Of the coun-
Gil any circumstances whatever Affect
ing international relations which
threatens to disturb international
peace or the good understanding be-
tween nations upon which peace de-
pends.'
The appeal was contained in a

COPELAND ASSA|LS
GRANT TO v. R. {.
Declares Competition Is De.
stroyed by Street Railways
Operating Bus Routes.

Characterizing as Outrageous the
granting of the crosstown bus line to
the Washington Railway and Electric
Co. instead OF the Washington Rapid
Transit Co, Senator Royal 8. Cope
land of New York announced today
that he intended to have a few words
to say on the subject when the street
car merger bill comes up in the SEN
ate Friday night.
Declaring that the bus line was
the future means Of transportation,
Senator Copeland said that fndepend-
ent companies should be encouraged
and not hampered In their develop
ment.
Here you have a bus line" said
the New York Senator, which is
bound to operate on routes where
they can get the most travel and
give beneficial service, but as long
as the Public Utilities Commission
grants bus lines to the street railway
companies the independent lines can
be nothing but feeders to the street
cars.
Fears for Outcome.
Il am not in favor of paralleling the
street car lines with Independent bus
lines, but / am in favor or develop
ment of new fields by the automobile
busses If the Public Utilities Com
mission persists in turning down the
petitions of the bus lines to establish
new routes, all competition in trans
portation will be eliminated, and
think it would be a great pity.
There is also a serious question OF
legality in street car companies
operating bus Enes. There was a case
remember out West where a rail-
way company desired to operate q
steamboat line The petitions were
promptly turn down by the court,
which held that the railway COM
pany was incorporated to run trains
and not steamboats,.
The sooner that the Public Utili-
ties Commission and Washingtonians
generally realize that independent
bus lines will be the future transpor-
tation systems, and of the most bene-
fit to the public, the sooner progress will
begin. Any board serving in the in
terest of the City should serve with
reference to the most good of the COM
munity.
Sees BENEFIT by Com pc tition.
Competition in all lines of endeavor
works for the best results. / think
that the street cars serve to good
advantage the large proportion OF
the public and will continue to dc
so, but l also think that there is
another field which properly belong.
to the bus companies and which will
work no BARN to the street cars.
