NATIONS FIGHT
FOR FAR EAST
TRADE
Battle U. s. to Regain Their
Old Position, Department
Of Commerce Warns
By ROBERT s.THORNBURGH.

European nations are making a
determined fight against the United
States to regain their prewar posi-
ton in far Eastern trade, it was
announced today by the Department
of Commerce in connection with the
statement that Great Britain, Ger
many, France, Belgium and Italy
are threatening Americas CONNER
cial security in the Orient.
Great Britain's trade with Japan
was ahead Of the prewar figure in
1924. Germany virtually had re-
gained her prewar position.
Figures show that United States
furnished about rs per cent Of
Japan's buying last year, Great
Britain IL per cent and Germany
from to s per cent.
Severest competition throughout
the East is anticipated in iron and
steel products,f rAineraI oils and
other finished articles now being
produced in quantity LOTS by
Europe.
Germany is said to be working
her way back into the Chinese mar
kets while Belgium and France are
making tremendous strides.
Officials said that the United
States must give closer attention
to the Chinese market where par
ticulariy the machinery and auto
mobile trade is seriously endangered
by Europe. Japan is competing
keenly with certain lines sold on a
price basis.
High quality of goods from this
country makes it possible for the
United States to supply about one
quarter OF the imports to Australia
and New Zealand. On the other
hand in India, Germany, Belgium
and Japan enjoy the bulk OF the
business because low prices are a
greater consideration than quality.

PROFIT TAKING
HALfS RISING
MARKET
Forward Movements Continue
in Many of Specially Stocks
in Early Trading
BY international News Service.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-After
firm opening in which most of the
active industrial and railroad stocks
registered moderate gains at the
start the stock market was called
on to absorb considerable profit
taking in the early trading today
and prices were again inclined to
sag.
Forward movements continued in
many of the speciality stocks and in
q few of the indusrrials which had
powerful support from the bullish
pools. Prominent in these lists
were Radio Corporation, Savage
Arms, International Paper, Amer
lean Locomotive and Maxwell
Motors.
The bulls derived most satisfac-
ton in the developments over the
holiday in Washington dispatches
relative to the prospect or further
reduction in income taxes this year
These reductions il they materialize
are to be made in the Surtaxes or
higher bracket taxes, a department
which received scanny consideration
last year. An increase in Fishers
commodity price index, higher oper-
ating rate in Carnegie Steel Mills
and other important manufacturers
and continuance of heavy distribu-
ton of commodities in domestic
trade were the otner main develop
ments over the holiday. Call money
renewed at 81 per cent.
New Haven replaced Rock Island
as the leader of the Iow-priced rail-
road stocks and raced ahead to
above 35, the highest price since
1920. when the stock sold at BIN.
Buying of New Haven was based
on the excellent earnings record for
1924, and improving traffic condi-
tions this year to date Atchison
and New York Central led the
dividend rails, the former selling up
2 points at 1874.
Railroads were reported as heavy
purchasers of cars, engines and
other equipment and this accounted
for active buying of the equipment
stocks. American Locomotive gained
5 points and sold at a new high
above 131 and Baldwin was active
around 143.
American Can, Radio Corporation,
Savage Arms and United States
Steel led a movement IN the indus
trials in the second hour which
gained some momentum only by
selling of the oil stocks. Oils have
lost their popularity in, the last two
weeks because of their reactionary
tendencies under the most favorable
developments in the industry. Frac-
.tional declines were made as the re-
suit of fairly heavy offerings OF in
dependent oil shares.
st. Paul stocks were heavy though
they managed to keep about l point
above their low of last week. Moth
ing authentic was revealed relative
to the refunding problem Of the st.
Paul lines, though President Harry
Byram is expected in New York
this week
The grain markets were strong,

Heifer Calves Deserve
Attention of Dairymen

The heifer calf dropped this fall
the COW of two or three years hence
should be given a fair start now.
Whole milk from its dam for the first
week and from the herd for two or
three weeks longer is almost essen
tial. But as early as the third week
of the calf's life 1t should be offered
grain and hay so that it will not miss
the fat of the milk when the change
is made to skim milk The change to
skim milk should be made gradually.
If whole milk is being sold and there
Is no skim milk available. powdered
buttermilk diluated with nine parts
water and fed at the same rate as
skim milk is equally satisfactory.
Experimental work has proved the
value of buttermilk for calf feeding,
only where there is no skim milk
available. Whole oats. cracked corn
and bran make good grain for the
calf. Coarse alfalfa hay is preferable
to leafy hay. A darkened shed will
afford the calf protection from flies.

Proper Care Increases
Life Of Farm Tractor

Tractors, like horses, do not last
long If they are neglected or abused.
Some simple rules for increasing the
life of these machines as well as for
reducing their repair bills are offered
by E. r. Gross. professor of rural en-
cheering at the New Jersey State Col
lege of Agriculture.
1. Handle the tractor as though It
could feel. This win avoid many
broken or bent parts.
2. Do not race the motor except
when it seems necessary. The gov
ernor is intended to protect the motor
when under load. The operator must
throttle it when 1t is running idle.
8. In almost all cases move slowly
instead of by jerks. 1t is easier on the
machine. This applies to shifting gears
and operating the throttle and clutch.
4. Examine the machine throughout
in order to detect any loose bolts.
Tighten them before damage is done.
This, with oiling and greasing, is as
essential as the daily care given a
work animal.
5. Motor repairs and adjustments
such as taking up bearings, replacing
piston rings, cleaning spark plugs, re-
moving carbon, and the like, must be
done eventually, but may be deferred
If the tractor is carefully operated.
6. In addition to the daily care, give
the tractor each winter a thorough
cleaning with water to remove dirt
and with kerosene to remove grease
II it is needed, an oyerhauling should
accompany the cleaning.

They Bother Then, Nosv

The coal crisis in England served to
recall the methods employed by the
miners in bringing their grievances to
public attention more than century
ngo--in 1915. 1t that time the work.
ers made their protest In person. They
dragged loads of coal to London and
demanded to see the prince regent!
But the magistrate sent for them, told
them they must not bother London's

back home, carrying their loads be-
hind them.

Clover Mix Better
Than Timothy Alone
Yield of Hay Can Be Ma
terially Increased.

Why not make It timothy and clover
when planting for the next hay crop?
There are three good reasons for do
Ing 50. according to A. w. Blair, asso-
ciate soil chemist at the New Jersey
agricultural experiment station.
First. clover enriches the soil in
nitrogen. whereas timothy takes all
Of its nitrogen supply from the soil.
Second. the yield of hay from the
mixture OF clover and timothy is gen.
orally greater than from timothy
alone.
Third, the mixture gives a hay hav-
ing a decidedly higher protein value
than timothy alone.
In 1921 the average yield of hay
from -four timothy plots at the expert
ment station was at the rate Of 1880
pounds per acre. while the average
yield on four corresponding timothy
and clover plots was 2.6T6 pounds per
acre. In 1922 these plots gave average
yields Of 2,906 and 4.525 pounds per
acre, respectively. Thus, in the two
years the difference in favor of the
timothy and clover was almost one ton
Of hay an acre.
In 1921 the timothy and clover plots
yielded a fair second cutting OF hay
(much richer in protein than timothy
hay) whereas there was no second
cutting from the timothy plots.
In most cases the percentage Of
nitrogen is nearly twice ms high In the
mixture as in timothy alone. In the
1921 experiments, the timothy plots re-
turned an average yield Of 2O.5 pounds
of nitrogen per acre, whereas the tim
othy and clover plots returned an av-
erage yield Of aga pounds per acre.
The corresponding figures for 1872
were 34.7 and 1874 pounds per acre
respectively.
According to the 1870 United states
census, New Jersay farmers seeded
$1,000 acres OF land to timothy In
1919. Had this land been seeded to
timothy and clover, the yield Of hay
would have been materially increased
and its feeding value would have been
distinctly improved. se

FARM NOTES

Few farms are without cats. yet rats
abound.
Timothy has a good reputation. but
clover gives it an added lustre.
Put aside few bales of fourth cut
ting alfalfa for the hens to pick at this
winter.
Junior calf club activity is an avoca-
tion that may be the father of profit
able vocation.
1t costs just as much to raise 40
bushel crop as one that yields 90
bushels, so why not plant your farm to
adapted varieties?
Yields of alfalfa have been increased
an average of 4500 pounds annually
from 1915 to 1920 by the use Of acid
phosphate and limestone.
Homegrown seed is always best II
the variety is an>adapted one. Perhaps
you are fortunate In having a com
munity "seed crack" Use him.
