WESTERN STATES
CAMP AI(N TO AID
DAIRY PRODUCTS

The states west Of the Rocky
mountains are carrying on stimuli
taneously a campaign to increase
use of dairy products at source of
production, according to Sam H.
Greene, secretary of California
Dairy Council.
1t is hoped in this manner to
withdraw from commercial dis
tributicn part of the production
which has SO greatly depressed the
current market prices and the
slogan of the campaign is swallow
the surplus
At current farm prices for milk
and cream there is no food that
the farmer can buy that will take
their place, Greene pointed out and
real economy is served by greater
use on the farm table.
The governor Of Montana has is
sued a proclamation designating
June as dairy products month.
In Idaho the campaign is going
strong under sponsorship of the
Idaho State Dairymen's association
oregon Dalfy CounclI is carry
ing on the work in Oregon and the
Washington Dairy Products associ-
alton is sponsoring the campaign
in that state. The dairy farmers
and others in Utah are setting up
a special organization for purposes
of the campaign and Nevada is par
ticipating in the California project.
In California the set-up is on a
county basis. County committees
have been organized embracing
leaders of farm and civic groups
Meetings are held and talks are
given.
The aim is to divert a quantity
into farm use, amounting to 10 per
cent Of current dairy shipments.

FAMOUS TEXAS
VOTING BUREAU
HOLDS BIRTHDAY
BY TOM MAHONEY

4
DALLAS, Textile famous Tex
as election bureau celebrated its
goth birthday recently by tabulaU-
ing 10000 Of the longest Demo-
cratic primary ballots in its his
tory. Since 1912, the bureau, an in
stitution unique in neWspaperdom,
has supplied Texas election returns
with almost unbelievable speed and
accuracy.
Election returns and expenses
are problems in many smaller states
but not in Texas, despite its super
lative dimensions. All Texas dailie5
printing election returns and many
Weeklies share in the expense Of
the bureau. 1t makes no profits
and has no other function than
the gathering of election returns.
Correspondents or newspapers re-
port votes from each of the 254
counties. Prizes are given CORE
spondents who transmit the va
rious blanks used by the bureau
first. Competition was so great f0l
these awards in 1880 that the bu-
reau received several thousand
votes before the polls closed and
had 4 per cent Of 856,761 ballots
counted the night of the election.
A. F.. Henning, veteran Texas
newspaperman, who is now head
Of the department of journalism at
Southern Methodist university, Is
the manager and perfecter Of the
bureau. He has handled it for a
decade under direction Of a con-
mittee Of managing editors.
He credits E. C. Murphy, a
Southwestern Bell Telephone COM
pany statistician, with deVising the
method of wholesale subtraction of
old from new totals, which is re-
sponsible for much of the bureaus
speed. Murphy directs the figure
work. which is performed by a
corps Of experts recruited from
banks and corporation offices e5-
pccially for the work.
A man is assigned each candi-
date and expert girl comptometer
operators add the columns. In
stead of calling off the figures in
a column for a check, it has been
found that READING the column
was faster. If the totals agree, it
is considered correct. More than
a score Of special forms are printed
to expedite the returns, and COM
municatiOn companies open their
transmission.

Christian Science

Christian Science" is the sub
iect of the lesson sermon on Sun
day in all branches of The Mother
Church. The First Church Of
Christ. Scientist, in Boston, Mass.
The golden text is from Paul's first
letter to the TheSsalonians: when
We received the word Cf God which
We heard of us, ye received it not
as the word of men, but as it is
IN truth, the word of God, which
effectually worketh also in YOU
that believe"
Among the scriptUral selections
in the lesson-sermon are verses
from Luke, relating to Christ. Jesus:
And it came to pass also on an
other. Sabbath, that He entered
into the synagogue and taught;
and there was man whose right
hand was withered And the
ecribes and PhariSeeS watched Him,
whether He would heal on the
Sabbath day: that they might find
an accusation against Him. And
looking round about upon them
all. He said unto the man, stretch
forth thy hand, And he did so,
and his hand was restored whole
as the other.
A passage from Science and
Health with Key to The Scriptures, 3"
by Mary Baker Eddy, states: MANY
years ago the author made a spirit
ual discovery. the scientific evi-
dence of which has accumulated to
prove that the divine mind pro-
duces in man health, harmony ana

FUNGUS GROWTH
CAUSES THREAT
TO WATEPMELONS


The Klondike watermelon will
cease to be grown in Imperial VAL
ley within a few years in the opin-
ion of DR.. D. R. Porter Of the di-
vision of truck crops Of the Uni
yersity of California. Dr.. Porter
has Just visited a number of water
melon fields in the valley accom-
panied by Frank Beyschlag, farm
advisor. The present varieties Of
Watermelons will be forced out by
watermelon wilt, a fungus disease,
according to Dr.. Porter He Is very
hopeful, however. that by the time
the disease has become prevalent
in all Of the fields Of the valley
that the division Of truck crops Of
the university will have a KlCndike
strain Of desirable type that will
be resistant to the disease.
The following facts on the dis
ease are pointed out by Beyschlag:
Watermelon wilt kills the vines
by the fungus growth stopping up
the channels IN the stems through
which moisture moves from the
roots 10 the leaves. When the sup
ply of moisture IS cut off the plants,
Of course, wilt. Plants, however,
that are only slightly infected often
show no wilt symptoms. Even such
plants SOW the infection for a crop
Of melons grown on the same land
in a later year. Il is decidedly
dangerous TO grow WatermelCns
more than one year on the same
piece of land, even though no wilt
was apparent in the field the first
year melons were grown. Every
season there are many watermelon
growers in Imperial Valley who
suffer the loss Of 30 to 95 per cent
of their vines because they chose
to run the risk Of growing water
melons TWO or more years on Lhc
same piece Of land. once land is
infected with watermelon wilt it l.
known to remain in the soil ready
10 attack succeeding crops Of
watermelons for eight to twelve
years or longer. Fortunately, the
disease attacks no other plant eX-
cept watermelons.
There are many ways. says the
farm advisor, that a clean field
can become infected Watermelon
pickers can carry the spores Of the
disease from one field to another
The wind can blow it about. The
fungus is distributed by cultivating
machinery. It can be brought in
on watermelon seed.
Growers who feel that they have
TO grow Watermelons more than
one year on the same land are ad-
Yised by Beyschlag to take certain
precautions. The first Of these is
to treat the seed, preferably iu
bichloride Of mercury solution o,
with an organic mercury dust &c
kill any disease spores that may be
on the seed. Second. 10 clean al
machinery and equipment taker
into the field from other fields OF
which watermelons have beer

however, he emphasizes, do not

KANSAS FARMERS
ASK MORATORIUM
ON LAND TAXES

LEOTI. Kan. June 25. lU.R -
Farmers in W.c.llta county have
started a campaign for a morator-
ium On land taxes until the de-
preston is over"
They point to the fact that in
their section the wheat crop this
year is practically a failure, and
that last years crop went for far
less than production costs.
j. A. Braden, one Of the most eX-
tensive land owners and farmers in
the county, is also advocating a
cessation on road building until
times are better. with the gasoline
tax to be expended for necessary
costs Of local and state govern
ment.
Braden usually raises some 100
head of hogs to pay his taxes. This
year. he says. the taxes are Just as
high but his 100 head Of hogs will
not pay more than one-third the
assessment against his land.
He explains the situation further:
7 have 1000 head Of ewes. Wool
is low in price. the sheep are prac-
tically worthless, and 1 am putting
in 500 acres Of corn ito try and
feed the livestock next winter.
There is no telling. where this
is going to lead the farmers. IN
less the local and state officials
heed the appeals and reduce eX-
penses in accordance with the re-
duced incomes. we are going to de-
mand delaying of road building.
1T would be no hardship on the
state to stop construction for a
time until we catch up. I know
4, expenses have been reduced some
what. but nothing in comparison
with the reductions we have taken.
