Grail Still Wants
Arizona Kicked
Out of the Union

A bill designed to GUST the state
of Arizona from the Union because
of its dishonest stand on the Boulder
dam question" will be made at the
coming session of congress, Congress
man Joe Grail of the tenth California
district told members of the public
utilities league in session at Long
Beach.
The congressman will introduce the
bill, he said, adding that Il may not
get very far with it, but it is the
only way in which the American peo-
pie can get the true facts"
Congressman Grail charged Arizona
politicians with seeking to make their
commonwealth a tax free state at the
expense of the nation by levying
tribute in taxes on any water taken
from the Colorado river.

"Parlez-vous Francois ?" the man

Sorry; / don't quite get you"
The manager blushed family.
"Speak French?" he said, with g
casual air.

Stafford MAN KILLED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT

John Hiser, Is, ranch employee,
was instantly killed here last night
when the stripped down" light road
ster in which he was riding with his
two sisters, was struck by heavy
sedan at Lone Star crossing, two

Nearby residents, attracted to the
scene of the accident by the sound
of the crash as the heavy sedan
plowed into the lighter car, called

SlAIY-SlA
By Carey HolbroOk

From the pavements Of Chicago,
To the streets of old L. A.,
Can't you hear the jingle, jingle?
That's the tourists on the way.
Hear the putt-putt-putt of flivvers,
Hear the purr of limousines,
Sweeping on rolling army,
On the way to other scenes.
Through the traffic of the cities,
Through the hamlets in the sticks.
DOWN THE MAIN STREET OF
THE NATION-66i
Don't you hear the hum of motors?
That's the folks from Illinois,
Don't you see those cars a-coming?
That's the old Missouri boys.
Smell the liquid gold a-spouting,
See the Texas wheat fields stand,
Taste the breeze that means redemp-
ton,
In that blessed wind-swept land.
Through the dawns and moons and
shadows,
Ever on the engine clicks,
DOWN THE MAIN STREET OF
THE NATION-66i
There's a lifting sort of music,
In the throbbing engines hum;
There's a cleaner, better country,
Every year it whispers, "Come!"
There's a peace that comes with
rhythm
There's a JOY when all is said,
In the faint entieing promise,
Lurking round each curve ahead.
There's a Ford and lordly Packard,
How they meet and inter-mix

Gain on cattle enterprise ---$115
Return per hour man labor ---24.Sc
At the price at which growing
young stock was valued last year it
was improbable to raise it. The
average loss per farm on the young
cattle enterprises was $135. The to-
tai returns were large enough to cover
the cost of the feed they received but
were so low that no return for man
labor was obtained. Nevertheless it
is advisable for dairy farmers to raise
the animals that they will need in
their herd. The difficulty of pur-
chasing stock of the same quality that
can be raised and the danger of bring
ing disease into a clean herd through
purchased animals makes the plan of
buying cattle unwise. The return
from milk cows, however, was large
enough to absorb the loss on young
cattle and to allow return per hour
of 24.S cents on the entire dairy herd.
Very few dairymen can raise stock
for sale at a profit at prices that have
existed the last few years. Some
calves, however, must be raised to
maintain the herds. Since such
stock is being raised at a loss it is
evident that only the best heifers
should be retained. This condition
emphasizes the Importance of good
dairy sires. Not only must the milk
ing cows receive proper attention but
the young cattle must be carefully Sc
lected and reared if satisfactory re-
turns are to be secured from dairying.
*The young cattle enterprise" in
cludes all dairy cattle except milk
cows-an heifers up to the time of
birth of their first calf, and all bulls.

auditorium at st. Paul, according to
announcement made this week from
the headquarters of the Minnesota
Farm Bureau Federation, which is
cooperating in staging this big meet
ing of farmers.
Frank w. Murphy of Wheaton, Min
nesota, chairman of the Executive
Committe which has in hand the ar
engagements for this meeting, stated
that the following men had been in
vited to discuss various phases of the
agricultural problem in it's relations
to commerce and labor at the ST.

Montana; George W. Norris of Nebra-
ska, and James E. Watson of Indiana,
and Congressman Charles Brand of
Ohio; David H. Kincheloe of Ken
lucky; L. j. Dickinson of Iowa, and
Gilbert N. Haugen of Iowa, co-author
of the McNary-Haugen bill.
In addition to these members of
the federal Congress, the program will
include several addresses by state Of
ficials who have been active in the
fight for agriculture, including Chas.
V. Truax, commissioner of agricul-
ture for Ohio
The Western Passenger Association
has granted a special rate of one and
one-half fare for those who attend
this meeting, covering the states of
Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North
Dakota, South Dakota and Montana.
A large attendance of farm organiza-

pose of securing legislation in the
National Congress favorable to the ag-
ricultural interests of the country.

The eight farms having the highest
production averaging 317 pounds per
cow had a net return of $46.S4 per
COW and a cost per pound of butterfat
of 345 cents. The seven farms hav-
ing the lowest production, averaging
1913 pounds, had a net return of only
1898 and a cost per pound of 457
cents. A correctly balanced ration
fed in quantities sufficient to insure
capacity production is essential. Fiji
teen farms on which well balanced
rations were fed, all having a nutri-
tive ratio narrower than 1:7.5, had
an average production per COW of 273
pounds, while 8 farms having a nu-
tritive ratio wider than 1915 had a
production of only 226 pounds. The
first group had a net return of $3.50
and a cost per pound of butterfat of
1873 cents; the latter had a return
of $911 and a cost per pound of 45.7
cents. Proper breeding wedding and
feeding are necessary to secure salts

Greater returns were obtained in
926 than in. 1925 although the butter
at sold for a cent pound less. The
production per cow increased very
Highly from 246 to $50 pounds. The
eed cost per pound of butterfat in
:reased one cent, due to the greater
amount of feeding made necessary by
Door pastures and to the high prices
or roughage during the last half OF
he year. Grain prices, however, were
over. The greater return was caused

expended per cow. 230 hours were
Used in 1925 and only 1864 in 1926.
AS labor is included as a cost at 20
cents an hour, the difference in labor
cost caused the greater net return per
cow last year. Although the total

ings, railway traffic and retail sales,
is large. There is some uncertainty
with regard to the future, but as long
as present conditions prevail the de-
mand for dairy products should re-
main active.
Within the dairy industry the pros
poets are favorable but do not war
rant any general expansion. The
number of COWS and heifers two
years old and over kept for milk de-
creased slightly during 1926, both in
the United States and Minnesota. The
number of heifers being kept through
out the United States is too small for
normal replacement of the milking
herd, but in Minnesota a larger pro-
portion is being retained. However,
any increase in the number of dairy
cows during the next two years must
come from keeping the older, less
productive cows that would ordinarily
be sold.
The production and price of feeds
during the coming year are still I'M
has resulted in excellent pastures and
should insure plenty of hay. On the
other hand, the continued cool, rainy
weather has retarded the planting and
growth of feed grains. Consequently,
we may expect hay to be cheaper and
grain to be somewhat heigher in price
but unless an unusual shortage de-
velops, grains should not be unduly
expensive.
The supply of dairy products on
hand and in storage is encouraging to
the dairy farmer. In April the
stocks of butter amounted to only
3,033,000 pounds, the lowest on record,
as compared with 17,392,OOO pounds
in 1926 and five year average of
100000 pounds. Butter is going
into storage with the price above Al
cents per pound, which would indi-
cate that the buyers expect relatively
high prices again this coming winter.
Condensed milk stocks in April were
the lowest on record for any month
since reports first became available
in 1920. Cheese production still con-
tinues to run to 10 per cent below
last year but the holdings on April
were about 100000 pounds heav-
Ter than the year average of 35, $685.
900 pounds.
Although, on the whole, the pros
poets for the dairyman are favorable,
expansion is not to be encouraged.
Production was curtailed last year
due to the shortage of pasture and
hay. This year, with prospects of
good pasture and plenty of hay, will
probably see an increase in produc-
ton with a possibility of a lower
price, depending partly upon the ex-
tent of the increase in production.
Dairymen should devote their atten-
ton to providing enough heifers for
normal replacement and to improving
the quality of the cows rather than
to increasing the size of the herd.
The indications are that this is not
an advantageous time for starting in
the dairy business except for those
who have especially favorable con-
ditions.

Dairy Prospects for the Coming Year.

Dairy Prospects for the Coming Year.
Satisfactory returns from dairying
during the coming year are indicated
by general business conditions and by
conditions within the dairy industry.
Business conditions which have
such a pronounced effect upon the
consumption of butter are not quite up
to the high mark of 1926, but are
quite satisfactory. There is more
than normal activity in production,
the employment situation is fairly
good and wages are still high. In
terest rates remain low. The volume
