A STATEMENT TO CONGRESS

IRON per-onal acquain.an and contact
with our farmer readers it is our opinion
that they want the Tariff Bill passed with as
little delay as possible.
They regard the early passage of the Tariff
Bill, with its increased and comprehensive
farm rates, as more important, from the
standpoint Of farm prosperity, than anything
else Congress could do at this time.
This belief of many Minnesota farmers is
based on two things:
First-The prospect for larger American
market for farm products, which will come
through the operation of these new farm tar
iff rates.
second-An understanding of how this
large and more stable market will fit into the
prosperity program accompanying the new
marketing systems to be developed under the
terms and with the assistance Of the Agricul-
tural Marketing act.
These marketing systems, with their farmer
control and their more direct consumer con-
facts, are calculated to give the farmers q
larger share of what the consumers pay for
farm products. Tariff protection will enlarge
and stabilize the markets. This Is the combi-
nation upon which Minnesota farmers believe
their opportunity for permanent and depend
able prosperity now really rests.
Hence the widespread desire that the Tariff
Bill be passed without unnecessary delay.
We do not believe the Tariff Bill should
now be held up indefinitely to slash the in
dustrial rates of the 1922 law, as it will be de-
layed If there Is an attempt to make indis-
criminate changes. There would be delays
not only In the Senate, but in the House. and
especially In the Conference Committee.

Agricultural Notes

Corn, Skimmilk and Minerals Best
for Rapid Growth in Winter
Says Blue Valley Institute
Fall pigs are especially popular
on many midwest farms because
they make good use of the skim
milk produced by late summer and
fall-freshening cows. and because
fall pigs sell on the early spring
market when hog prices are gem
orally high, says the Blue Valley
Creamery Institute. On farms
where cows freshen to produce
most of their milk in winter, whom
butterfat prices are highest. the
liberal use Of skimmilk with ple,,-
ty Of corn and a good mineral mix
ture makes one of the very best
and most economical rations for
putting on big gains In pigs.

serve as protection against sun

warm days Of early spring start
all growth and cold freezing
nights that follow damage this will
be prevented. A warning is added
that the protective material be
removed in the spring. Mr. An
derson states that ordinarily in
this section Of the state the time
for removal will be around May
first.

Farmers Warned As to Alfalfa
Seed Supplies

Buyers Of alfalfa, clover and
sweet clover seeds are warned by
c. p. Bull, in charge of the state
laboratory at University Farm. st.
Paul, to be on their guard in
spring. He says that purchasers
should examine closely all seeds
of the kinds named, to make sure
that they contain no red, green, or
violet colored seedsf If such
colors are present, at least a part
Of the seed is from Europe, South
America, or Canada and the hard
mess of such seeds may be ques-
toned.

Measuring Hay


We found the following interest
ing article in this weeks issue IF
The Farmer and Farm, Stock and
Home:
Not all farmers in Minnesota or
the Northwest own wagon scales.
Much hay is sold in the stock. It
is always a puzzling problem %
know how to determine the tonnaa g
Of stack of hay and the price that
should be paid for it. At best, any
attempt to learn the contents of a
stack must be an estimate and it
is difficult to make it an accurate
one. Requests are constantly COM
ing in for information about the
amount of hay required to make a
ton and the best method of measur-
ing stacks. An attempt will be
made to offer a method which, if
used, should enable one to deter
mine fairly accurately how much
hay his stacks contain.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has been investigating
the question of hay stack contents
and advises that the old Quarter
masters rule is the most accurate
of the various rule in use at the
present time. This rule reads as
follows: Add the width of the stack
and it's "over" (The distance from
the ground on one side of the
stack, over the stack, to the ground
on the other side-usually deter
mined by throwing rope over the
stack and measuring the rope) di-
vide the sum by four, and multi
ply this result by itself. The re-
sulting product multiplied by the
length of the. stack will give it's vol
ume in cubic feet.
After determining the cubic con-
tents Of a stack, as directed in the
rule, the next step is to determine
the number of cubic feet required
to make a ton under the conditions
prevailing. Here again the United
States Department of Agriculture
offers the following suggestion,
stating that these figures are used
by many agencies which buy or sell
stacked hay in quantity. The fig
ures follow.

CLEVELAND "'HAMS"
TIMED AIR RACERS
Amateur Radio Club Fur
nishes Quick Communica.
ton With Judges Stand.
BY MARTIN CODEL.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, August 81
ClevelandS crack amateur radio club
stepped into the breach when officials
Of the national air races, being held
here this week, found it necessary to
establish quick communication between
the judges stand and the outlying py-
Ions, or course markers.
Using 7l2-watt transmitterS, 20 anna
teurs are maintaining four-way tele-
phone communications in a way that
would do credit to a group of profess
sional radio men. Transferring their
ham" apparatus from their homes
they have been allowed by the city to
house 1t in voting booths near the three
pylons beyond the range Of observa-
ton Of the judges and spectators.
Race officials built special control
station house under the judges stand,
and from this station the amateurs can
booths, furnishing complete liaison
between the main field and the pylons.
Keep Track Of Planes.
Each station, of course, communicates
directly with observers on the pylonS
who are timing the planes and other
wise watching the progress Of the races
These observers tell the amateurs what
to report to the control station, and in
IctuIH IcCclVc OluCIdl HlcSSdScS Via Tie
CONTROL station. Thus a quick and ready
method is furnished of dispatching news
to the spectators, curious to know how
the planes are faring when they get
out Of sight Of the grandstands. In
emergencies like accidents, Of course,
the hams" are excellent standbys for
summoning first aid.
While the pylons mark a triangular
course Of miles and rhomboid course
Of 10 miles, making the radio trans
mission distances short ones, the little
group of amateurs, working purely for
love OF radio, Is very proud of its
achievement.
It Is claimed that this Is the first
time such unique telephone set-up
has ever been tried at air races any
where, and the amateurs are literally
! basking in the good will Of the race
ofiicials.
Hams" Talk to Capital.
At the national air races at Los An
geles last year amateurs tried their
hands with considerable success in es-
tablishing a radio network to facilitate
smoother and safer conduct of the races
But only telegraphy was tried, and tele-
graphic communication by radio is COM
paratively easy.
So successful has the voice transmits
sion ana reception been that the opera
tors in spare time have been able to
talk with other ham" stations as far
East as Newark, N. j., and Washington
D. c., and as far West as st. Louis and
Denver. in spite Of the extremely low
power employed.
The project Is wholly non -commer-
cial, and Is being handled under the di-
rection OF Harry Tommonds, WSBAH;
e. T. Huddleson, W8DBU, and Edwin
Pulitzer, W8CK5. The three outlying
stations can talk to the control station
simultaneously, using adjoining chan
nels IN the 85-meter amateur telephony
