AMERICANS BUY 95 PER CENT
 OF LIQUOR SOLD AT BANFF

CALGARY, Alta, Feb. 20.-Ninety- five per cent of the hard" liquor sold at the Albert government liquor ven dor's in Banff famous Rocky noun tain resort last summer, was purchas- ed by Americans, the year end check of liquor permits reveals.
 A permit to buy liquor is rapidly becoming as prominent part of the equipment of a touring motorist in Alberta as tent or a frying pan, ac cording to Banff officials.
 A similar condition prevails at all the central points on the scenic trails through the mountains of Alberta and British Columbia. While it is not even remotely suggested that open sale of booze is the chief attraction to tour ists in Western Canada, it is an un- doubted fact that many motor sched- ules are laid out so that the end of each tourist day brings the motor par ty to a town where a government li- quor store it situated. And they are placed at strategic intervals along the route that bring them within easy au- tomObile distance of one another.

Proponents of Cooding
 BiIl Offer Rebuttal

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Rebuttal testimony by proponents of the Good ing bill was offered today before the House Commerce committee.
 James A. Ford, secretary of the In- termediate Rate association, declared the system the railroads are trying to put in is causing congestion of population under unfavorable condi- tions, and is driving small industries out of business.
 The wool growers in Idaho and ad- joining states, he contended, were un- til recently, forced to ship their wool west to the Pacific coast and then eastward to the Atlantic seaboard to reach the market, to take advantage of what he called discriminatory rates
 Various agencies of government, Ford contended, have drawn, attention to the point that railroad rates are detrimental to navigation.
 "The development of water trans portation and discrimination against communities" MT. Ford said, in urg- ing the adoption of the Gooding bill, are the main elements involved. He introduced into the record communi- cations from farm organizations in inter-mountain territory favorable to the bill which declares it's purpose would aid diversifcation of crops by putting up industries which would form market. Ford denied this was a jobber's fight and declared that the adoption of the bill would not ad- versely affect commerce, but would make for economy on railroads.

HISTORICAL TREES-BROOKE
GROVE SYCAMORE

While many trees of the primitive
forests still stand which are much
older than the Brooke Grove Syca-
more, no record has come to light of
a tree planted in Maryland prior to
1887 when this tree, then a mere
sapling. was planted in front of the
Brooke house near Sandy Spring,
Montgomery county. 1t is said that
an ancestor of G. f. Brooke, who
now owns the Brooke property.
while riding horseback from Wash
ington to his home. pulled up 3
sycamore sapling to use as riding
crop. When he reached his home
he decided to plant the tree. placing
it in front of the house. Such Is
the history of the earliest planted
tree in Maryland. This tree is 1873
years old, ITO feet high and has q
circumference of 16 feet inches at
one foot from the ground.

TUBERCULOSIS FREE COUNTIES

= CA'A|AsoSAOoAO rIOEL SOONl1ES
With SO counties on the modified
accredited list of the United States
Department of Agriculture, July 1,
eradication of bovine tuberculosis
from the country is showing I'M
usual progress. A place on the
modified-accredited list means that
the county has completed a test of
all cattle within it's borders, that in
lection was less than one-half of l
per cent, and that all reactors were
promptly removed and slaughtered
The SO counties show a note
worthy increase over So, the figure
on the first of the year. Besides the
countrywide testing, an increase of
approximately 10000 in the num-
Der of accredited herds occurred
during the same time. Coupled
with this progress is the removal
and slaughter each month of from
10000 to 10000 cattle found
through systematic testing to be
tuberculous. The removal of these
diseased animals greatly reduces the
menace to healthy stock and also tc
people. According to a summary
of the work up to July 1, just issued
by the Bureau of Animal Industry
United States Department of Agri1
culture, total of 1,120,536 herds of
cattle were under supervision for the
eradication of tuberculosis at the
end of June.
The continued popularity of sys-
tematic tuberculin testing under
State and Federal supervision is
evidenced by waiting list of more
than 100000 herds ready for the
test as soon as the veterinary in
spectors can reach them.

IMPROVE RADIO
RECEPTION

A few simple suggestions from
radio engineers as to the value of
overhauling and putting In first
class shape, radio equipment for
summer use, have materially aided
IN overcoming static trouble. The
further suggestion that radio users,
during the summer, take advantage
of programs from broadcaatfng
stations nearer home instead of try
ing to get China or Tfmbuktu has
increased the use of radio equipment
and added greatly TO the pleasure of
listeners.
Announcement is now made that
1t is virtually assured that the radio
audience in the United States NAV
nightly listen to radio programs
broadcast from England, in the late
fall and winter of this year. as the
result of an agreement made be-
tween the British Broadcast Com
nany and the Radio Corporation of
America. This will give further in
eentive to radio fans to perfect and
tune up their equipment for winter
programs. In commenting ON the
arrangements, David Sarnoff, of the
Radio Corporation of America.

are many foods which appeal more

raw meat, yet gourmet often wants

Before summing up the result, il
might be well to take few other

the principle of protein cookery
