County Grain Buyers Meet

dan County has attempted to give
the farmer the benefit of the protein
premiums secured for their wheat
when sold on the terminal market. In
many cases, considerable difficulty
was encountered both by the elevator
managers and farmers in marketing
on the protein basis. The principal
cause of this difficulty has been due
to the farmers not keeping their high
and low protein wheat separate at
threshing time.
There are many factors which in
fluence the protein value in wheat.
A series of tests conducted by the
Montana Experiment Station show
that the wheat that tests high in
protein comes from land that has
been summer fallowed or that has
had corn on it the previous year.
Also land that has previously been
sown to clover or legume crop pro-
duces a wheat that is higher in pro-
tein content than the land that has
been cropped year after year.
After some lengthy discussion as
to methods of handling wheat so that
the elevator managers would be bet
ter enabled to reflect protein pre-
miums back to the farmers, it wa
decided to encourage the farmers t.
make a preliminary survey of thei
|. fields before harvesting so that tn
protein value in different fields Nigh
be determined. Those fields running
, high in protein should be binned OF

Wheat low in protein could be mar
keted direct from the threshing ma
chine or combine at a season when
very little attention is paid to protein
values by the millers. Statistics show
that, over a period of years, the pro-
TEN premiums increase after Decem-
Der 1st. If the fields that test high
in protein were held on the farm I'M
til the millers were paying more at
tention to the protein values, the
farmers would be able to secure a
greater return for their high protein
wheat and the elevator managers
would be in a position to handle such
wheat in carload lots and there would
be much better opportunity for them
to pay the farmer on the protein
basis.
Information will be sent out from
the Extension Office from time tt

tests can be made prior to threshing

ABUSE OF STRONG DRINK
TO BE PROBED BY LEAGUE

GENEVA, September 14.-The foes OF
alcoholism won a partial victory today
by getting through the economic COM
mittee of the League of Nations reso-
luton for an investigation concerning
the abouse of strong drink. The vets
were not entirely vanquished, because
they succeeded in having wines, beer
and cider eliminated from the proposed
inquiry.
The resolution provided that the
health committee of the League should
institute the inquiry and collect statis-
tics and similar information concern

y. S. Clerk Loses Retirement Plea Despite
Total Disability Payment By Risk Firm

Payment of total disability and hcne-
fits by an insurance company is not
evidence of total disability for useful
and efficient service as a Government
clerk This ruling was laid down to-
day by Assistant Secretary John H. Ed
wards of the Interior Department in
upholding decision of the Bureau of
Pensions in rejecting an application for
retirement from the Civil Service on The
grounds of total disability for useful
and ef1cinet service tiied py John b
Gross of 1886 New Hampshire avenue,
formerly a clerk in the Adjutant Cen
erals Office of the War Department.
Interior Department records show
that this case was hard-iougnt, for
Mr.. Gross request for retirement from
the Civil Service was teJec,Ad on Au-
gust 9, 1927, by the Bureau of PEN
sions and reopening of the claim was
denied September Z. 1927, and June IA.
1923, on the ground that evidence fled
was deemed insufficient to show total
disability. In June and July several

affidavits of laymen were tiled to Sis
tain the claim Despite these reverses
Mr.. Gross, through his attorney, en-
tered an appeal from the adverse de-
cision on August /. The .indins reach
ed by Mr. Gross physician that he
did not believe him capable of filling his
present position was contested by a
Public Health Department surgeon, who
concluded that Mr. Gross ''is not totally
disabled for useful and aAc,fnt service" "
Referring to the payment by the in
surance company of total disability
benefits, Assistant Secretary Edwards
wrote in his decision:
There is no evidence filed showing
that the insurance company bases its
allowance on physical condition pre-
cluding the applicant from performing
the duties of the position folmSrly
held by him and from which he appar-
emily resigned

now en- the ascendency. He admitted
that there is considerable sentiment
for Gov. Smith among the Republicans
because his ideas regarding prohibit
lion, but he doubts whether these will be
sufficient in number to put that State
in the Democratic column.
Senator Edge gave three reasons why
he thinks New Jersey will be Repub-
lican. The first one was that many Re-
publicans who a few weeks ago were
shouting loud for Smith and declaring
their intentions to vote for him have
come to the conclusion that there is too
much at stake to bring about the de-
feat of the Republicans and because
of that they will remain in the fold.
Second, the Republicans who were with
Smith because of his wetness are now
coming to the realization that he can
do nothing to relieve the prohibition
situation. Thirdly, was that the Repub-
licans are well organized and that the
State and national ticket as it is being
presented in New Jersey represents
every element figuring in this campaign.
