Legume Hays and Grain

lose flesh, waste feed and Interest on

heifers. Too often, BECAUSE OF poor
pastures, heifers make too slow gains
or are stunted.
Tests made by C. C. Hayden at the
Ohio experiment station showed al
falfa hay to be slightly superior to
soy-bean hay when fed literally with
corn. Either alfalfa, clover or soy
bean hay when fed with corn. Is ca

Iegume hays and corn are available,
Hayden concludes that greater va.

West Virginia Dairyman
Gives Some Poor Advice

Constantly farmers are told how 70
run a dairy. herd. but seldom are they
openly given advice ON how to run II
down. ~. n.
A West Virginia farmer, long a
dairyman, an honor pupil IN the grad.
nate school Of experience and hard
knocks. offers six rules for dairymen
who want TO iflirt with bankruptcy.
It's this way:
Feed timothy to cows-lt's good
for race horses.
Keep water Ice cold--slIivering
gives the COWS exercise.
.Cnw-testiag associations are need
less--they show how 10 save and
know.
.Don,t- have any windows IN the
barn-the hired man might look out.
avoid hedvy Ihilkers-tfiey take up
too much time.

DAIRY
FACTS
MILK PRODUCTION
EASY TO STABU IZE

Livestock farmers can more nearly
stabilize production than grain taFm-
ers Weather does not influence five
stock production 10 as great an extent
as grain crops Dairy farmers can
stabilize their production more than
most classes Of live stock for the rea-
son that their production Is constantly
going to market Labor also forms
an important factor In the production
OF dairy products and IS an additional
factor which makes for stabilizatlon.
The dairyman, however. has not
equallzed his production during the
different seasons OF the year as much
as might be generally profitable. Dur
ing the high prices for butterfat In De-
cember there Is only or o per cent
Of the product marketed, while on the
cheaper June market approximately
- or I3 per cent OF the product is sold
Older dairy territories are rapidly
correcting the summer milking tend
ency and are more nearly stablllzing
production. They are doing this as II
gives them more profit II all OF the
dairymen In the country would change
1t would mean that winter dairying
was not as profitable us summer dairy
ing.
Feed and market conditions cause
changes In the dairy market condi-
tions II feed prices are high as COM
pared TO the price Of dairy products
the feeding Is curtailed, some cows are
sold for beef, both helping to relieve
the general market condition. When
the opposite condition exists, which
has been true In the past. feeding and
milking are both expanded The fact
that butter prices are becoming lower
at the present time is proof Of the
working OF this factor

ATTACK MADE ON
UNSIGHTLY SIGNS
Danger to Motorists by Lit
tering Roadsides With
Misleading Markers.

An appeal for state officials every
where to bring about the removal OF
unsightly signs that create driving
hazards and mar the beauty of the
landscape has been sent broadcast
from national headquarters OF the
American Automobile association.
In calling upon officials. principally
those In charge of road maintenance.
construction and supervision, the A..
A. A. bases its appeal on two points :;
First, that there is so much advertis-
ing material along the highways that
the mOtorist constantly is confused
between these varfegated signs and
those set up by the authorities to in
crease the safety and convenience of
his journeylng; and. second, that In
many instances the scenic beauty,
which is the great appeal in the call
Of the roads, is married because Of the
unsightly, tumbledown shacks OF all
kinds that constitute an eyesore to
the automobilists travelling along
many of the main highways.
Good Work is Admitted.
In regard to the cleanup campaign
urged by the national motoring body,
Thomas p. Henry, president Of the or
ganization. has the following to say
Everyone recognizes the splendid
work the state highway departments
are doing not only in road mainte
nance and construction. but also in
the vital work OF sIgnposting and
marking these roads. At the same
time there can be no doubt that the
prevalence Of advertising material
side by side with legitimate road signs
Is a constant source of confusion TO
the motorists. In this respect the big
commercial advertisers appear TO be
a great deal more careful in their
methods than are the other agencies
that resort to outdoor advertising to
attract the motor tourist.
ION a recent motor trip noticed |
dozens of cases where filling stations |
and faFmheHses seeking tourist trade I
put up signs along the road that ap- /
peared a deliberate imitation OF warn
ing signs set up by the state authori-
ties.
Examples Of Signs
For example, / frequently saw
sign something Hike this, Slow Down
Tourist Accommodation Ahead. or
SLOW Down - Pawhawk Gasoline
Ahead When the motorist gees the
slow down he Immediately thinks
OF danger ahead. and the practice we
complain of cannot fail to annoy and
confuse him.
"Signpesting is. getting more and
more vital with the increase In traffic
and the resultant congestion. or
course a man has a right to place an
on his own property or
to rent ground on which TO place 1t,
but the safety and convenience Of the
public is paramount
at Is entirely feasible TO work out

would be placed further from the cen
ter OF the highway than the warning
and direction sings. in order that the
after may be easily and quickly diff
This is something TO
which the state highway departments
nay well give their consideration.

search for bandits he alleged held
him up early yesterday, Russell
Smithers, taxi driver, of 1874 P ST.
N. W.. is said to have admitted to
Detective Dennis Murphy last night

to And Street and Canal Road,
where he claimed they held him up
at the point of pistols and robbed
him Of $3.50.
The detectives searched all day
yesterday and then took Smithers
into the station house to question
him. There, it is claimed, he adj
mitted that he had spent the money
in company with two women.
Finding that he had spent the
money he had collected in fares, he
reported that he had been robbed.
Police say that he and the women
who accompanied him signed a con-
fession that his first story was a
hoax.
After Questioning he was released.
He tore up his Identification card
saying that he would never again
drive a taxicab.

PEPCO DECISION

Officials Of the Public Utilities
Commission today expressed dissat-
isfaction with the decision of JUS
tice Wendell P. Stafford, in which
a request for writ compelling the
Potomac Electric Power Company
to distribute its share of the $6,O0O,-
900 impounded fund among con-
sumers, was denied.
It is understood that Edwin w.
Davis, petitioner for the writ, will
note an appeal. He requested that
he be allocated $40 in addition to
the $39 he has already been given
by the electric light company as his
share of the impounded fund.
Although the Government inter-
vened and asked also that it be
allowed to share in the redistribu-
ton of the 100000 which has
been given the power company, it
was decreed that the consumers had
waited too long in bringing legal
action.
