FALL is BEST TIME TO
BUY CATTLE AND SHEEP

Cattle and sheep can usually be
purchased to better advantage during
September, October, and November
than at any other time of the year
and farmers who contemplate buy
ing beef cows or ewes for breeding
stock should take care of their needs
during the next three months, accord
ing to w. H. Peters, animal husband
ry chief, University Farm, St. Paul.
When possible, Mr.. Peters says, it
is desirable to purchase breeding an
imals for shipment direct from the
ranch or farm on which they have
been produced to the farm of the
purchaser. This, however, is often
impractical because of the difficulty
and expense involved in locating and
purchasing animals that way. By
using careful judgment and taking
the necessary sanitary precautions,
highly satisfactory purchases of
breeding animals can be made at the
large central markets, especially dur
ing the fall season when a wide range
for selection is usually available.
Sheep and beef cattle are both in

very strong position at present am
prices are moderately high. TIT
makes it especially important that
the buyer understand his business,
says Mr.. Peters. If he does not, he
would be wise to employ the services
of some reliable person who knows
market grades and values and who
understands market practices. The
old adage that "well bought is well
sold' is still one of the big factors
in determining profits from livestock
and has a particularly pertinent ap-
plication to the purchase of feeder
cattle and feeder lambs.

Wounds in potatoes are the most
frequent source of storage rot, and
careful handling during harvest and
storage will decrease loss from this
source. Cooling freshly harvested
potatoes too rapidly may cause
wound rot, because of the slowing
down of wound repair. If wounds are
properly healed before potatoes are
placed in storage, and if sufficient
ventilation is provided to keep them
dry during storage, very low temper
allure is unnecessary to prevent loss
by storage rot.

project the World Court proposition
until the time was ripe, meaning that
the Senate could give it's full attention
and not neglect other essential mat
ters. Mr.. Hoover made it clear to
Senator Borah and others that con-
slider themselves specialists in inter
national affairs that he would send
the World Court protocol to the Senate
for it's approval with special mes

One of the subjects that has been
close to the heart of the President
since he first entered the government
service is the reorganization of gov
eminent departments and bureaus.
Criticism is directed to the habit that
the President has acquired of appoint
ing commissions to deal with govern
ment problems. A special secretary,
former Congressman Newton is at
tached to the White House secretarial
staff, to assist the Chief Executive in
out these ideas. The pro-
gram still has long and rough trail

WASHINGTON LETTER
Continued from Page y

Some entertain the belief that the
Hoover partisans will attempt to put
forth the argument that the country
was saved from panic as result of
measures proposed by this Adminis'ra-
ton, and that this contention may
offset the disadvantages of the Senate's
bad behavior on the tariff matter.
There is no secret of the fact that
they hope the Senate will pass the tax
reduction bill with the same CELEBRITY
that characterized the House action
Considering the tactics of the Senate
on other important measures there is
no basis for such sanguine outlook
One of Americas industrial leaders
passed the comment while here last
week that if the press restricted it's
space allotments dealing with Senate
debates that legislation would be ex-
pedited. The theory of this prac.i-
Cal citizen is that these controversies
would end if the spotlight of publicity
was shut-off or subdued. 1t is an
old argument advanced during the war
as to the effectiveness of 'the thunder
of silence"
Mr.. Hoover has disappointed some
of the groups in the Senate by his
refusal to contribute ammunition for
political fire works. Many years have
elapsed since international affairs
held the center of the stage in the
Senate to the exclusion of all other
important business. With program
crowded with important domestic is
sues demanding attention of the Sen
ate the President in his annual mes
sage made it clear that he would not
