FARMING OUTLOOK
FOR 1925 BRIGHT

The outlook for agriculture in
1925 is more rosy than it has
been for some time"
This was the conclusion.drawn
by Andrew Boss of the Minnesota
Experiment Station at the close
of his discussion of The Outlook
for Agriculture" before the Min
nesota Crop Improvement Asso-
citation meeting at University
Farm. Mr.. Boss said in part:
There is good statictical foun-
dation for the belief that prices
for hogs. beef. cattle. sheep and
wool will be higher in 1925 than
they were in 1924. There is strong
prospect for shortage of breed
ing hogs and known shortage
of wool. Apparently the cattle
business has been completely de-
flated and better prices seem sure
TO follow. Present prospects are
that prices for dairy and poultry
products may hold steady or in
crease slightly. provided there
does not occur a business and in

STATE QUESTIONS
TO CRUISING KING

In connection with King Georg IS
voyage abroad, it has been recalled
in London that King Edward dis.
pensed to a large extent with tbis
practice, as the system of using
a ltographed signature for certain
commissions in the service, end sim
liar affairs, has absolved the king
from the immense drudgery which
was constant annoyance to royalty
in Victorian times.
Most of the British rulers have
been keen yachtsmen, King George
being perhaps the most enthusiastic
of them all, so the physicians in a J.
vising a cruise in warmer climate
after the rulers recovery from in.
fiuenza and bronchitis in February
felt that he would enjoy himself un
der circumstances entirely to nis
liking. Queen Mary does not care
for the sea, but King George, ordin
arily. is not bothered by rough
weather in the least.

SENATOR RAPS
JAP SHIP PLAN

WASHINGTON. March "a Japan :
proposal that domestic water traff c
of all nations be opened to foreign
vessels was scored here by Senator
Joseph e .Ransdell president of thi
National Merchant Marine associ Il
ion.
Senator Ransdell said
Il am surprised that foreign =
tions should think for one moment
that the United States could be so
foolish and shortsighted as to ac-
cede to any plan whereby the great
domestic water traffic of this coun-
try should be opened to foreign
vessels.
"In what conceivable way coui
the United States be benefited by
such policy? No other nation Ill
the world has a coastwise traffic
that approaches a fractional part of
that of the United States. How an
one could believe this country would
agree to permit foreign vessels u
come into this exclusive traffic
return for a similar privilege bein2
accorded American vessels of to the
coasting trade of other nations, is a
puzzle to me-"
Japan, it is understood, will adj
vocate such policy at the Brussels
conference in June and will offer to
take the initiative in opening her
domestic trade if other nations will
do likewise.
