AUTO INDUSTRY TRIES
TO OFFSET TRADE LOSS
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The automobile industry Is continuing
its valiant effort to lead the country out
of the business and financial chaos.
The steady improvement which set In
six months ago Is characterized In
Washington as an omen of encourage
ment, indicating that at least one of
Americas most powerful businesses re-
fuses to fold up and quit.
May automobile production, estimated
by the National Automobile Chamber of
Commerce on daily average basis,
amounted to 338, ,307, equal to the pre-
vious month and showing a smaller per
cent decline from the same month of
last year than any month thus far in
1881.
Sales of automobiles in April likewise
showed q smaller per cent decline from
last year than any previous month this
year. Fragmentary reports for May in
dicate but little change over April.
However, production. which is being kept
strictly in line with demand, Is ex-
pected to show q decrease along the
seasonal precedent of Is per cent de-
cline.
Best estimates on the production of
automobile tires this year places the
total at around $1,000 900, against
54 900 900 In 1880. OF this amount,
10000 900 are for original equipment,
2.500,oO0 for export trade and the bal
ance for replacement. The latest re-
porting month, April, showed an in
crease of Sc per cent over the bottom
touched last November, whereas the
usual seasonal rise from November to
May is approximately Is per cent. Tire
dealers are said to have their stocks in
good order, the inventories for April
being % per cent under the correspond
ing month of last year.

grades of Western woods were quite

Gas and finer woods in the original bags
comprising the greater portion OF the
aggregate volume.
Grain Markets Irregular.
Grain markets were irregular during
the third week of June. Wheat futures
reached new lows at Chicago and Liv-
erpool, with continued liberal offerings
from exporting areas and only nnoder-
ate import inquiry, despite the recent
relaxation in milling regulations in
France and Germany. Quotations on
corn held within q narrow range.
Feed barley held steady. with light
offerings meeting only moderate in
quiry. High-grade mill feeds were quiet,
with limited inquiry. Linseed meal was
slightly lower, but cottonseed advanced
moderately.
Hay markets were quiet, with liberal
offerings meeting dull demand. Good
pasturage in most areas is restricting
the demand for hay.

overproduction and unfair competition

Bacterial Blight Most
ImpOrtant Bean Disease

Development of bean varieties re-
sistant to bacterial blight appears to
be the most promising control for the
disease, reports DR.. w. J. Zaumeyer,
assistant pathologist in the United
States Department of Agriculture, who
has been conducting investigations on
this disease. The results of his find
ings have been published by the de-
partment as Technical Bulletin 1867,
the Bacterial Blight of Beans Caused
by Bacterium Phaseoli.
Next to anthracnose, says Doctor
Zaumeyer, bacterial blight is the most
important disease of beans with the
annual loss from the disease approx
mately quarter million bushels.
Losses in very bad seasons have run
as high as Is per cent of the crop
and in isolated instances and in par
ticularly bad years, complete destruc-
ton of field is not uncommon.
In field tests no variety showed
complete resistance, the author says,
although four varieties of the Refugee
type showed a very low degree of
susceptibility. ALI other varieties
tested showed moderate or very slight
resistance.

Farmers Travel Far in
Feeding All Live Stock

Farmers travel farther In feeding
than in any other operation connected
with dairy or meat production. Any
practical method of reducing travel
should be beneficial. Convenient silos
and feed bins, with labOr-saving
plan of moving feed to the cows or
live stock, are big help. In the
dairy, carrier trucks which will hold
enough ensilage or meal for several
compared with carrying feed in bas-
kets. Arrangement of the barn, smooth
floors, accessible hangers which are
easily cleaned, are all factors in max.
ing feeding a shorter task.

The Nations Fuels

During 1929 the energy supplied by
water power was only one-thirteenth
Of that furnished by mineral fuels
in the United States, according to
special study by f. G. TryOn, of the
United States bureau of mines. An
thracite coal and natural gas each
supplied more energy than did water
power, while oil furnished 31a times,
and bituminous coal IA times as
much. If the figures for the work
done by windmills, animals and the
energy contained in firewOod and
miscellaneous fuels are taken into
consideration, the proportion Of wa
ter power in the total of the ma
tons energy supply is less than Z
per cent.

Wind-Va Insect Trap
Aids Control Beet Pest

A new wind-vane insect trap devised
by entomologists of the United States
Department of Agriculture is proving
useful in determining the source of
beet-leaf hopper migrations, the de-
partment reports. Once the source of
infestation is known, it may be posi-
BILE to apply direct control measures
before the insects migrate to the SUI
gar-beet fields, if the natural breeding
area is small.
This new trap consists of a light
wooden box housing a series of paral-
lei upright screens. connected by a
funnel with a jar containing cyanide.
A weather vane attached to the box
causes it to rotate so that 1t always
faces the wind. The traps are mount
ed on high poles.
Insects flying with the prevailing
winds are caught by the screens and
carried by air currents down a tube.
through the funnel, and into the Jar
Of poison. BY examining the jar at
regular intervals entomOlogists can
tell which winds hiring the insects at
what height they are flying, and the
"-+ent of the fight.

Black Locust Grown
for Posts and Money
Good Tree to Plant to Check
Damaging Soil Erosion.

of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Service.
Early rapid growth into hard,
strong, and durable wood, suitable for
fence posts, insulator pins, hubs, mine
black locust as tree crop, says the
United States forest service.
Few hardwood trees equal black To-
Gust in growth for the first 20 to 80
years. Its network of roots and
sprouts make 1t also good tree to
plant to check erosion. Thick stands
develop shade, which causes the young
trees to drop their lower branches and
develop clean, straight poles in the
first ten or fifteen years of their
growth. Shade is also a deterrent TO
the locust borer, the trees worst en-
envy.
One-year old seedlings for planting
may be bought from nurseries or from
state forestry departments. 1t is also
easy TO propagate planting stock on
the farm. The seed should be soaked
eight to twelve hours in warm water,
not over 160 degrees F., and sOwn i'm
mediately one-half inch deep. Spring
sowing is preferable.
The tree thrives especially well in
the Appalachian region and is grown
successfully in most other parts of the
United States. AS post timber. good
black locust in Ohio has shown II per
cent of sound posts after AZ years in
the ground. Although tree crop is
not usually expected to yield as much
profit as a cultivated crop, black To-
Gust timber on an abandoned cornfield
in Ohio produced 2,1S0 posts to the
acre in % years, netting $3.50, or SIC
per acre per year. Under ordinary
forest conditions in the Appalachian
region, the stand will range from one
to twenty cords per acre.
