NO CORN ON BILL OF
FARE, BUT TOP MARKET

That calves can be bred, raised and
fattened in the Red River valley on
the small grains and roughages CON-
monty grown in the region, without
ever knowing the taste of hard ear
corn, once regarded as Indispensable
in finishing beef animals for the mar
ket, has been demonstrated anew in
experiments completed and reported
at the Northwest Experiment Station
at Crookston.
Furthermore, the calves sold on the
South St. Paul market for Sl4.60 a
hundredweight, which was the top
price for cattle at that point up to
that time.
Thirty Hereford home-bred calves
of the average weight of 379 pounds
1 and fed fer 224 days on local grown
grains and roughages. All lots re-
ceived oilmeal, corn silage and alfal-
ia hay. Lot 1 was given ground bar
ley only, for grain; lot 2, ground bar
ley two-thirds and ground oats one
third; lot 8, grodnf barley one-third
and ground oats two-thirds; lot 4,
ground oats only.
Common ground barley proved to be
much superior to ground oats as feed
for fattening. The barley-fed group
made more rapid gains, carried a
much higher finish at the close of the
feeding period, and was valued at 81
per hundredweight over the oat-fed
lot, and returned decidedly larger
profit, the margin per head over feed
cost being S17.59 as compared to
S7.07. Replacing part of the barley
with ground oats did not prove profit
able. Every increase in the proper
ton of oats to barley increased the
grain requirement, reduced the rate
of gain, lowered the degree of finish
and the selling price, with a cores
ponding decrease in the margin of
profit over feed costs.
The calves in lot 1 weighed S97.61
pounds at the end of the 224 days, or
total gain of 5O2.3S pounds. The
second lot gained 4S3.54 pounds each,
the third lot 45S.57rpounds, and the
fourth lot 1929 pounds

BAD FOR THE POOR

"Paternalism is bad only when it
helps the poor" declared Congress
mar Berger, of Wisconsin,, in urging
the house just before adjournment to
approve his age-old pension bill.
THE 'paternalistic' issue is raised
whenever any measure proposes &c
give the great mass of the people
some small part of the special priv
ileges the ruling class of our ceun-
try has enjoyed from the beginning
and which it receives today in the
form of tariff protection, subsidies,
land grants and the like" said Mr..
Berger.
Newspapers, in commenting on
this bill, say it is form of 'paterna-
lism' which should be stunned at all
hazards because it is contrary to the
genius of our institutions.
THE use of government to enrich
monopolists is not paternalism, in the
eyes of these editors.
Returning hundreds of millions of
dollars paid in taxes to the super
wealthy every time congress meets
is not, in their opinion, paternalism.
1.-THE granting of millions of acres
of land to- railroad companies and
enabling these railroads to charge ex-
cessive rates, never seemed to them
to be paternalism."

121 ENTRIES TO DATE
IN TON LITTER WORK

Despite all obstacles, such as the
low price of pork and the high price
of feed and a decrease in the spring
pig crop of about 10 per cent, Mime
sofas sixth annual ton litter mara
thon lasting for $50 days has been
launched successfully by the agricul-
tural extension service of the univers-
ity cooperation with the Minnesota
Livestock Breeders association and
alton.
One hundred seven individuals or
firms in "a counties have entered 121
filters in the 1928 ton litter race. A
few more entries may yet be made,
but the total, because of the unfavOr-
able conditions and the fact that the
contest is no longer new and novel,
will not be quite so large as year
ago. Swine growers of Winona county
lead the field this year with II filters
enrolled as compared with Is in Lyon
county, 10 in Mobiles, s in Mower. Z
each in Scott and Yellow Medicine,
and in LIE Sueur. Mower county was
first last year with 20 entries, and was
also first in point of numbers in the
new pork production contest.
Ton litter work eliminates in the
late fall when the feeding period hav-
ing passed, the state ton litter COM
mittee, H. G. Zavoral and E. F. Ferrin
of University Farm and H. A. Deren-
thai of Wykoff, president of the Min
nesota Swine Growers association,
will announce the awards on the ba-
sis of 60 per cent of the regular cash
prizes for the heaviest litters and 40
per cent for the heaviest average
weights per pig. Several hundred dol
lars in cash as well as trophies,
medals, watches, scholarships, and
trips will be awarded. Local prize
money and special prizes offered by
breed associations will be distributed
among those who meet the require
ments. Breed association prizes will
be paid only to owners of litters which
were sired by recorded sires.
Many boys and girls and few farm
women are in this years contest. Four
H club members had about one-third
of the entries year ago and are do
ing as we'll this year. Special prize
money will be awarded club mem
bers who keep accurate feed reports
and obtain high production.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
(Rv 6 w StrauS1

There are many definitions of thrift.
This one may be added to the list.
To be thrifty is to appreciate the
value of little things.
This may seem trite, yet it is one
of the rules of progress. The tower
ing office buildings in our great cities
are made up of a countless number
of small objects-brick, stone, steel,
tile. The great railroads that stretch
their way across the continent consist
of countless ties and rails. The
mighty engines that drive mans
steamships across the sea must turn
the propellers innumerable times.
One turn of the great screws means
little, but a succession of little revo-
lutions accomplishes the miracle of
ocean travel.
The story recently was told how
five British hospital beds are being
endowed from the proceeds of the sale
of tin foil collected by the Ancient
Order of Druids. Last year over sixty
tons of waste were collected and sold
for sum approximating $4,000.
There is an old saying, "save the
dimes and the dollars will take care
of themselves" Conversely, it might
be said, "Squander the dimes and the
dollars will be wasted, too"
1t is we'll to have ever in mind the
great Importance of the so-called
little things of life. Little sums OF

ing relieved of ailments, the bovine,
ovine, porcine, canine, and feline spe-
cies will simultaneously be cared for

Uniformity Aim of
National Plant Board

The National Plant Board, composed
of eight entomologists, two each from
regional groups organized for the far
western states, the gulf states, the
north Atlantic coast states, and the
central states, has in hand project
for establishing uniform rules and reg
ulations for the interstate movement of
nursery stock. Since conditions in the
different states composing a regional
group are similar, there is a prospect
that uniformity may be obtained in
each area, thus reducing 4S combina-
tions of requirements now existing, to
four, one for each of the areas.
A. G.. Ruggles, the Minnesota state
entomologist and faculty man of the
University of Minnesota, returned re-
Gently from Washington where as a
representative of the plant board of
the central states he attended meet
ing of the national board. Several
sessions were held and further prog
ress made, he says, in the effort to
substitute uniform quarantine and in
spection regulations for the many
types now in vogue. The board CO.
operates in an advisory capacity with
the Federal Horticultural Board.
The Central Plant Board takes in 10
states-Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kan
sas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota,
Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota,
Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.
George A. Dean of the Kansas Agri-
cultural College is the second member
of the National Board from the CEN
trail states.

money, continually saved, become for
tunes. Little habits of prudence and
watchfulness, develop sturdy charac-
tiers.
1t is not easy to bring ones self to
a realization of these fundamental
truths. But the difference between
happiness and misery, between prog
ress and stagnation, between wealth
and poverty, between good health and
disease, between success and failure,
is often just a matter of little things.
