The size and enthusiasm of the typi

goes far toward compensating the Wis
iting singer for a limited reimburse
ment under the Soviet system.
Although Emma Redell could not
carry away the rubles she made during
a 10-month concert tour. she left Rus
sia with vivid impression of crowded
halls and vigorous applause.
Not that Miss Redell claimed the ap-
plause for herself Although the for
mer Washington girl is the only singer
outside Russia to be awarded a medal
by the Soviet for artistic excellence"
she is convinced that the star system
is out in that country.
There, as in other European coun-
tries" Miss Redell said today, "the
music is the thing. And it may sur
prise most Americans to know Russia's
classics are far more popular with her

Operas Popular.
"Ir Moscow three opera houses were
going full blast 10 months out of the
year. Everywhere in Russia operas are
being produced. Almost every impor-
tant city has at least one opera com
pany.
"All classes patronize them. the
worker and the peasant no less than
the government official, because admis-
sion prices under Soviet control are
within the reach of every one"
Miss Redell was born in Washington
and spent her early life here
She studied in New York and abroad,
making her debut in 1925 in the for

opera roles in Germany for four years,

to become the soprano for the Chicago

in from distant sources or they are put on
short rations The second unfortunate develop
ment Is the drying up of dairies during the
strike II it Is Of too long duration.
The production of milk is kept stimulated
during the flush period through heavy feeding
The general average in feeding requires q
pounds Of all kinds of feed per day per COW to
maintain the COW itself, and the feed beyond
the quantity up to the limits of the individual
is converted into milk. During a strike period,
naturally, the dairyman cuts his feed back to
minimum and the flow of milk is abruptly
diminished. Once this has occurred the COW
cannot again be stimulated into heavy pro-
duction until she has freshened again.
strike always entails suffering and hard
ship for all concerned, yet farmer who finds
himself receiving his milk check from the milk
station and then carrying it over to the feed
mill to settle his feed bill cannot be entirely
blamed for expressing his dissatisfaction with
the situation. The strike, powerful weapon,
has seldom been resorted to by the farmer, but
when 1t has been used 1t has been successful
in winning his point, at least in part The
average farmer is slow to go into this drastic
campaign, and even when it is decided upon
the opinion Is seldom unanimous, for the
farmer, as general rule, is fair-minded and
sees the point Of view of the consumer in the
city, but when milk drops to a price less than
the cost Of production he finds 1t necessary to
do something.

Test Preserves Pears

HE great problem facing those engaged I'M
marketing pears is to know when the fruit
is approaching the so-called dead period, after
which green fruit cannot be brought to ripe
ness. The present method of storing pears calls
for their removal from cold storage to warmer
temperatures short time before being placed
on the market in order that they may be
brought to maturity. Often, however, the de-
Lay has been too long and the pears fail to
respond to the warmer temperatures.
Experts of the Department of Agriculture
have worked out method of determining when
this dead period is approaching. --.s'
Pears breathe" while in storage and SO long
as this breathing continues normally and the
content Of alcohol and acetaldehyde continue
level, the pear is In good condition, but once

gins to increase. the dead period is known to
be approaching. Chemical analysis reveals the

Mik Strikes Cause Much Loss

THE threat of a milk strike has be-
come really serious in Wisconsin and New
York, two of the greatest dairying States in
the United States. Particularly in New York
would this be problem, for much Of the dairy
output Of that State goes to the teeming pop
ulation of New York City. The greater part
OF the Wisconsin production goes into manu-
factured products, such as condensed and evap-
GRATED milk, butter, cheese and so on.
, When the first really successful milk strike
was called more than a decade ago. the young
but nevertheless lusty Dairymens League of
New York shut of the supply of milk both 10
the huge manufacturing organizations and to
large proportion of the fluid milk dealers In
New York City for 10 days and during that
period laid the foundation for the entry of
that organization into the manufacturing and
distribution Of its own products.
The league, faced with loss of income by
the dumping of such milk as was produced,
decided to establish its own condenseries and
cheese and butter factories, so that in the case
Of future strikes the milk could be diverted to
these plants to be turned into products which
could be held in storage without loss for what
ever period should be necessary These plants
also handled the problem of surplus production
OF milk during the flush periods when the
private milk plants were unable to handle the
entire output.
Two unfortunate developments always ac-
company milk strike, however for the chill
dren and babies in the large cities affected
