of the midwest, whose representa-

Minor changes to meet objec-

some Of the leaders declared, but
the fundamental principles of the
McNary-Haugen bill must stay.
Senators and congressman, gov

their support to the movement.
The conference was told by var

We should approach the 10th
session of congress with the best
organization possible, and pass the

LONGEST HIGHWAY CON-
CRETE IN THE WORLD
Minnesota Now Hold Record for
Continuous Pavement of One
Material

The longest pavement in the
world, of one material, is now
found in Minnesota. When the
last concrete was poured July 2 on
T. H. No. /, near Rush City, it
made continuous ribbon of con-
crete 1855 miles long, from
White Bear to the bottom of the
long hill in the City of Duluth.
The next longest concrete road is
between Olympia, WASH, and
Vancouver, 1875 miles, and the
third longest is from Kansas City
to Columbia, Mo-, 125 miles
The new pavement on No. 1
will be opened as soon as shoulder
grading is completed. After that
it will be possible, by starting at
Brainerd and going via st. Cloud,
the Twin Cities, Duluth, Virginia
to Grand Rapids, Mimi, to take a
continuous ride 416 miles long on
pavement. Not all of it is con-
crete, however, other types being
used in several places. This is be
lieved to he the longest continuous
pavement west of Illinois, except
on the Pacific coast.

Minnesota's official council of
agriculture, created by the last
legislature, took part in the con-
ference with j. F.. Reed, presi-
dent of the Minnesota Farm Bur-
eau Federation and a member of
the state council, taking the lead.
Governor Theodore Christianson,
who is member of the council
under terms of the law. welcomed
the visiting conferences.
Speakers today were Congress
man Gilbert N. NHaugen of Iowa,
one of the authors of the bill; L.
J. Dickinson Of Iowa; Senator A.
w. Barkley Of Kentucky; George
Peek, president of the American
Council of Agriculture; Charles
Truax Of the Ohio committee on
agriculture; Thomas E.. Cashman
of Owatonna, chairman of the con-
ference, and Mr.. Reed Frank W..
Murphy, Of Wheaton, leader of
the delegation which conducted
the fight for the bill at Washing
ton last winter, is to speak.
Congressman Haugen traced the
history of relief legislation. The
second bill, defeated in congress in
1925, would have given farmers
for their 1925 crops profits as fol-
lows: Wheat, $318,0O0,000; but
ter, $123,000,000; corn, 1922, 900,
900; lard S44, 100000. and beef,
$332,000,000.
The farmer now would receive
the benefit Of the tariff laws had
the last bill been enacted, Con.
gresham Haugen said.
The question Of constitutional
ity is an evasion, he went on, be-
cause other laws, questioned in the
same way, have stood the test.
Twelve other nations have pass
ed laws ''to give producers con-
troll of the marketing of their
products" he said. and all are op-
Grating satisfactorily.
Congress succeeded in passing
the bill by a large majority in the
two houses" Congressman Haugen
said. Judging from the increas-
ed sentiment manifested in favor
of farm relief legislation, the pas
sage of a real farm relief measure
seems certain. Notwithstanding
the Presidents veto. Judging from
press reports, the opposition has
given up hope of it's defeat except
by the possibility of defeating it
by amendments, and elimination
Of the essential provisions, to thus
make it ineffective.
Congressman Dickinson declar-
ed that diversiication is not the
answer to the farm problem. be-
cause it merely shifts the burden

food commodity in which sur

He made the statement that eff
the plan fails, farm relief will be-
come the major issue of the 1928
campaign. .

OF course, such plates are reserved
for formal dinners and lunCheons
while for lesser occasions and for the
usual home meals the plates are con
slderably less expensive. If not. IN
deed. duplicates of the service used
at the meal
When Meal Is Served.
When the meal is served these serv
ice plates are at all places. Whether
viduals with the next, or she may re-
them is governed by what is being
served for the first course Here in
the United States the first course is
on the table when the dinner is an
uounred Whatever dishes the indi-
vidual portions are in are placed on
! tho service plateS. When course
is changed the dishes used are re
moN Cd from the service plate and the
dishes needed for the coming course
are set dovr IN these plates. When
there is maid she removes one
course of plates as she serves indi'
viCluals with the next or she may re,
move all the former course dishes,
thus uncoverinS the service plates.
Two Advantages.
There are two distinct advantages
in this method. One is that it obviates
any possibility Of person not hav-
ing a plate before him. The second
is that ii prevents the table from any
, likelihood of getting marred by too
hot dishes The home maker who
serves her own meals will find this
method a great saving of work. The
table can be cleared before any of the
next course appears, which, should II
be either piping hot or icy cold. can
come on at it's correct temperature to
all at about the same time.
Doilies In Plates.
Those who do not have extra fine
service plates can follow another
European idea. and that is TO have
dolies in each plate. These are never
taken off during the entire meal, but
remain on the plates Sometimes
very sheer doilies are used on the
plates that are eXtraNagantlN costly,
for they save the plates. So in fol
lowing this custom the home-maker
is in the best Of company. for dOilies
are correct whether service plates are
costly or not In the first instance
they protect the china, while in the
second they add ornament TO simpler
dishes.
Service Plates Omitted.
Unless this method is followed. the
maid has TO bring to an individual A
serving of the coming course, and
while with one hand she removes the
plate of the course just over, with the
other hand she replaces the dish with
that of the coming course. When hot
plates are necessary for the main
course of a meal, and waitress does
the serving. she hands the man of the
house, who is carving, one plate, hold
il in a napkin as she places it before
him, and is ready 10 replace it as soon
as he has put the meat on the one
at his place. While the man is serv-
ing the next portion the waitress
serves the person for whom the plate
is intended. and continues TO place and
replace plates before the host in this
manner.
1t is considered bad form to have a
pile of plates before the person serv-
ing a meal. but the question arises
whether il is better to follow this
dictate or to put hot plates around and
let them get cold before being filled.
