TALK FINANCE
ON MARCH 5TH
Raskob May Answer
Criticisms Made
Of Loans

WASHINGTON, reb. li-iF-
The democratic national committee
viii set together in washington the
day after congress adjourns to
straighten up its finances and to
lay plans for action during the
next Is months.
The call for the March 5 session
was issued yesterday by Chairman
Raskob. A comprehensive plan for
soliciting funds TO meet the deficit
now existing and to carry on both
during and between national cam
paigns" viii be presented AZ that
time.
This plan, said the chairman.
: now Is being drawn up by the John
Price Jones corporation Of New
York, which has conducted an ex-
+ tensIve survey OF the possibilities
+ curing the past two months.
One OF the first interpretations
\ placed upon the call was that the
, meeting would be Raskob's an
ever 10 criticism within the party
growing out OF his loans which
have gone far toward supporting
the national committees operations
during the period since the last
national campaign. There were
some indications the fund raising
plan would involve solicitation OF
email contributions from the rank
and file Of the party. 10 put an
end to the borrowing which has
been necessary since the demo-
Gratis ended the unsuccessful 1928
presidential campaign with a big
deficit.
Faskob set out as the first pur-
pose of the meeting ITO receive re-
ports OF the splendid accomplish
ments secured during the past
eighteen months bv the fine or
~ganization in washington built no
under the able direction and Lead
ershtp Of Jouett Shouse. chairman
az our executive committee"
The recent criticism OF the DEM
ccratic chairman was voiced bv
Frank r.. Kent. ~ the Baltimore
sun whose assertions Faskob In a
sweeping denial summed up as. I'm
short. thai I have bought and paid
for the party
Kent described him as the First
mortgage holder OF the party.
Faskob maintained he had not
assumed any liabilities or debts OF
the committee. but that he v-as one
OF q group which endorsed the only
outstanding note. lie expressed
confidence also that the commit
tee would repay the loans ne had
made It. He also disclaimed having
controlled the appointment and
administration Of Shouse. who has
been in active charge Of the partys
sTTairs.

BONE MEAL OF VALUE
IN CATTLE RATlONS

Bonemeal is a valuable addition
to the ration Of COWS and hogs In
a year of deficient rainfall says
Howard Welch of Montana State
college. Feeds do not contain the
usual amounts of minerals and es'
pecially are deficient in calcium
and phosphates, the most import
ant bone building elements.
Cattle show the lack Of phos-
pilates by a depraved appetite and
lack of condition. Phosphate-hun-
CRY cattle hunt out and chew
bones, rocks, dirt, boards, almost
anything. They are commonly
known as "bone-chewers". Extreme
cases become lame, may have
swollen joints, become very thin,
and may die. Cows with calves by
their sides seem to be affected
more than dry ones.
Hogs when suffering from a
phosphate shortage, generally de-
velop a "rear-end paralysis,
"breaking-down", weak back" or
other similar conditions, indicat-
ing that the bony skeleton of the
hog has not sufficient strength to
carry the weight of the animal.
Sows with filters of pigs most
commonly show this "hind-end par
Growing pigs may devel-
op lumpy or swollen joints, lame
ness, and may develop a paralys-
is of hind quarters.
For cattle good results follow
mixing salt and bonemeal fifty
fifty or salt 2-3 and bonemeal 1-3,
putting the mixture out in salt
boxes. A distinct improvement in
condition will be noticeable in
three weeks or less. With dairy
bOnemeal may be fed with
grain, feeding from one to three
daily. An occasional COW
continue to chew bones even
supplied bonemeal.
Bonemeal may be supplied to
logs with or without salt, in a box,
citing the hogs take as much as
hey wish. Sows that have already
broken down. will probably not
ecover with this treatment.
Horses and sheep for some reas-
do not show any distinct SYM
toms of phosphate shortage.
Most commercial mineral mix
ures contain too little calcium
