Dairy Profits
Are Measured
One New Jersey Man Cleared
$197.66 Per Cow, Tests
Showed.
How Costs Per Cow Vary

A study of New Jersey CONTEST
ing association records shows that
it costs $4.29 to produce a hun
dred pounds of milk with some
cows, whereas with others it
costs $1.16. This difference, con
tinues the dairy department OF the
State College Of Agriculture, IS
due to a difference i'll the milk
production Of the COWS.
Eighteen members OF New
Jersey cow-testing association
cleared this, one man making
s197.66 per COW. One Holstein
herd in this association averaged
12,4219 pounds of milk for the
year. Only one COW MIXED less
than 10000 pounds. This man had
been member of a cow-testing
association for several years and,
consequently, weeded out all his
poor COWS, raised calves from his
best cows and used high-quality
pure-bred bull. Besides this, he
supplied balanced rations accord
ing to the amount Of milk pro-
duced. He weighed the feed as
we'll as the milk.

Protests against the practices of
commercial fisheries along the
New Jersey coast and request for

been sent to all the Congressman

These petitions ask If CONNER

the pleasure of deep sea fishing
as they threaten to do. The hook

struction of food fish.
The State has laws against the
catching of fish in purse nets near
the shore and the scooping i'll OF
tons of them for fertilizer, but
fails to enforce the law as it does

Prune Grape Vines

Annual pruning of grape vines
is essential if profitable crops are
to be produced, says j. II. Clark,
of the New Jersey Agricultural
Experiment station. Even one
year of neglect will cause the
clusters to be small and irregular,
while the canes will be weak and
unable to produce satisfactory
crop the next year. 1t is adv1s-
able to prune during late Febru-
airy or March so that the job will
be completed before growth
starts.

Chicken Parasite

A peculiar parasite has recently
been discovered by F. r. Beau
dette, poultry pathologist, in
number of chickens sent to the
Agricultural Experiment Station
for diagnosis. 1t belongs to the
same group as the round worms,
though different in shape. The
worm is found imbedded in the
wall OF the proventriculus, or true
stomach, which is just in front of
the pizzard. Prevention lies in
rearing young stock on new
ground entirely separate from
adult birds.

WORKERS SCHOOLISMS

Thru the merger of the Armour
Engineering Institute and the Engi-
neering School of Northwestern Uni
versity, Accommodations are to be pro
vided for 1000 students. How soon
will we have that enrolment?
On Monday, Feb. 1, the commercial
and financial leaders of Chicago laid
plans for a uniform training course
in Americanism. The Communist
leaders of Chicago are actually CIV
ing training course for all workers
in Leninism.
It is the success of education in
Leninism that compels financiers to
make attempts at education in Ameri-
canism.
The capitalists are against all isms
except Americanism.
The Chicago public school trustees
have started a campaign to wipe out
radicalism,> for the Qualification of
goslingism. The Workers School is
the beginning Of education that will
wipe out the capitalist school system.
We are counting on all nuclei meet
ings this week to take up the ques-
ion of enrollments for the second
Term, beginning Feb. 8. If you who
see this will remind the nucleus about
it, we'll start the term off with
bang.
Show me the chap who looks down
on schooling, and I'll show you the
chap who will stay in rut. Unity
of theory and practice" is the slogan
Of our school. Or as the French Com
munist Party says: "Our education
is not academic, but polemic."
-
Is the party school your school?
Then what are you letting it do for
you? And what are you doing for
it?
Agitation and propaganda are be-
coming more and more important in
our party work. The Workers School
for elementary feminist education, as
well as preparation for party work, is
an indispensable part of the agitprop
work.
We know that you are behind the
Workers School, but how far be-
hind?
Lenin says: ENROLL" This is Lenin
school enrolment week.
