Senator Phillips Lee Goldsborough
in commenting on S. 1852, which he
introduced a few days ago, authoriz-
ing the Secretary of Agriculture to
establish grades and an inspection
service for canned foods, said that
for several years much interest has
been manifested by the Gamers OF
Maryland in legislation providing for
the proper grading and labelling OF
canned goods. For this reason after
a careful study of the situation he in
troduced this bill, which is compan-
ion bill to the one introduced in the
House some weeks ago by Represen-
tative Hope of Kansas. The bill
would give the Secretary of Agricul-
ture additional authority to that
already granted by the Pure Food
Law of 1905 and the Federal Ware
house Act of August II, 1916.

PROFIT TO FARMER
! IN cow TEST WORK
Many Benefits to Owner of
Dairy Herd From Mem
bership in Association.

The easiest way known for a farm
family to make from % per cent to
80 per cent more profit on the average
dairy herd, according to the De Laval
Bureau of Dairying, is to join a cow
testing association. These prosperity
building organizations of local dairy
farmers, Of which there are more than
LOCO in 40 states, have the backing,
cooperation and endorsement of the
owners OF. 414.S91 cows, every state
college of agriculture and the u. S.
Department Of Agriculture In these
organizations every member is visited
every month by the COW tester, who
tabulates the months milk yield, tests
the milk and figures out the monthly
butterfat production of each cow,
works out balanced rations for the
herd, tests the skim milk from the
cream separator to see that the ma
chine is not losing butterfat, etc.
Every dollar invested by the dairy
farmer in COW test association work
usually returns from Is to % times
more profit than money invested in
the SOundest bonds on the market,
states the De Laval Bureau. Directly
and indirectly the benefits derived
from joining COW testing organiza-
ton, the practical help and assistance
and inspiration they provide makes
the small yearly cost of being a menl-
Der seem mere trifle typical story
pointing out one of the benefits of be-
longing to such an association is found
in an item in the monthly report to the
Iowa Agricultural college made by
Harold StrOm, tester for the Mont
gomery-Mills Qowa) association.
The cream separator of one of his
members broke down one day, so he
took the milk over to neighhors to
have the cream separated. To his sur
prise he found that the machine left
"a of I per cent fat in the skimmiIk.
The owner of this separator had pro-
duced close to 1000 pounds of skim
milk during the month; therefore he
must have lost in the neighborhood
of 20 pounds of butterfat worth nearly
$40. How much better off that neigh
Dor would have been had he spent
the $40 which he lost in single month
from AN inefficient separator. for join
ing COW testing association which
would check the efficiency of his sepa-
rator every month
There are an untold number of poor
ly constructed and badly worn sepa-
rators on farms today that are "short-
changing" their owners every time
they are used. An effective method re-
sorted to by some farmers to check
the efficiency of their separators is
to have five gallons from their sepa-
rator reskimmed in a new separator
of known standard quality. Like the
neighbOr in the above story, quite a
lot of them are finding that they have
been feeding their stock on skimmilk
that is entirely too rich for their
pOcketbOoks. Responsible concerns are
glad to provide the facilities whereby
the farmer may make a test of his
separator and to furnish information
on how COW testing association can
be organized in a community.

THE LONDON NAVAL
CONFERENCE

Reports from London indicate that
the United States delegation to the
London Naval Reduction Conference
is still considering an agreement by
which this country would promise to
consult with other nations as to the
steps to be taken to keep the peace,
in case serious dispute occurs.
About week ago such an agree
ment was said by our delegates to be
out of the question now. They in
sisted that this country believes in
such consultation, which they say
are implied by The Kellogg Treaty.
But while believing in the principle
of consultation, the American dele
gates apparently felt that to make
such agreement to consult at a disar-
mament conference might involve
this country in moral obligtion to
go to the aid of some other party to
the conference in case of war.
sSuch reasoning is very appealing,
because the United States does not
want to be committed to 60 to war,
even to maintain peace.
"The war to end war" has not
proved effective. We want to be
sure that our future efforts to main
tain peace are by peacernl means
only.
It now seems to be recognized,
however, that peaceful means of
maintaining peace are desired like
wise by our colleagues at the Loudon
Conference. The situation is that,
while the Kellogg Treaty binds the
slgners to it to seek the settlement of
their disputes by peaceful means
only, it also leaves them the right
of self-defense. Secretary Kellogg
himself insisted on that interpreta-
ton of the treaty.

1t is estimated that less than three per
cent of American farmers are on i'm
proved, year-round highways. In many
agricultural areas farmers are cut of
from the rest of the world by barrier OF
muddy; impossible roads, during five OF
more months of the year. Under such
conditions agricultural prosperity and
progress are impossible.
Agriculture is the most basic of all
industries, and should be treated as such.
tits the duty of every state to provide
its farmers with efficient hard surfaced
year-round roads as fast as they can be
built Long-wearing, waterproof sur
faces can be constructed at very low
cost, and maintained without great
expense.
Trunk lines passing through farm
countries have to be laid out with the
aim of following the shortest line be-
tween cities, rather than reaching the
greatest possible number of farmers.
BY building secondary roads into these
highways farmers can be given an all
year medium of communication with
the outside world. Agriculture must be
given every opportunity to develop
along with other lerican industries

Try This Test on

Setting aside glass of skimmilk

dry feeds in the winter months, cream
may be present in the skim milk and
