SPECIAL SESSION
DEALT IN BILLIONS
Four Appropriation Measures
Called for Total of
$5,274,M0,0 900.

BY the Associated Press.
The special session Of the Seventy
third Congress was one that really
dealt In billions
For instance, it passed only four
appropriation bills where regular ses-
sion handles about H. BUT where II
have been amounting to around $4,000.
100000 these four called for about
$5,274, 100000.
OF course, all that Is not to be raised
by taxes and duties. Much is to be
obtained on long-term bond issues.
The first money bill was the third
deficiency, passed shortly after the
special session convened and carry
ing $994. .000,0 Then came the $30,-
100000 District Of Columbia bill, fol-
lowed by the $4,000, ,0O0,0O0 fourth
deficiency and the $3.50, ,000, 600 inde-
pendent offices bill, which included the
controverted veterans clause.
Second Biggest Money BILL
The fourth deficiency was the secorid
biggest money bill ever to have been
passed by Congress. The only larger
one was that enacted in July, 1918,
and appropriating $10,00o,00000 for
war purposes.
Most Of the fourth deficiency money
Is to be supplied by long-term bond
issues-S3, 400, 100000, according to the
director of the budget.
The money will be used to finance
many things on the Presidents recovery
program, including S3,250, ,O00, 900 for
public works, not more than $50 ,000, 600
for the Tennessee Valley development,
$50, 600, 900 for the Glass -SteagaIl de-
posit insurance bill and lesser sums for
other projects
In addition to these bills the Congress
authorized the issuance of 81 500 ,000, 600
In bonds by quasi-Federal institutions
$4,000, 100000 by the Home Owners
Loan Corporation, $4,000, ,000,0 to re-
finance farm mortgages and $500, ,00O. 600
by the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
tion for direct relief.
Relinquish Huge Claim.
At the same time a 1851 900 900 claim
against railroads was relinquished when
the administration railroad reorgani-
5atfon bill passed, repeating the provision
OF the law that required carriers to
put into Federal fund one half OF
their excess earnings.
And to cap the climax, the Congress
voted around $3.50 100000 a year In new
taxes. That included S227 100000 to
finance the bonds authorized in the in
dustrial recovery bill, s138,000,000 for
general purposes, to be raised primarily
by the gasoline levy and S150,000, 900
to $200,000,000 my the legalization and
tayation of 80 beer.
Despite these figures, one of the bills
carried millions les than heretofore. One
of President Hoover's last acts was to
veto the independent Offices bill passed
by the last session of the last Con-
gress. That measure carried 81 los ,000,-
900. The new one appropriated about
s65o,00o,000.

Common Brick Is Best
for English Type Home

People who are insistent upon hav-
ing their English type home reproduce
as nearly as possible in appearance
and effect the originals beyond the
ocean are careful to have common
brick specified for the exterior walls.
And the rougher, the more irregular,
the harder burned and deeper in color
they happen to be, the better. For 1t
was of that character of brick that
most of the oldest English manor
houses were built. Many of them.
hundreds of years old, are still stand
ing and in use.
The English mason of the earlier
days was not the scrupulously careful
artisan that is his prototype of the
present age. Nor were the architects
so careful to have everything work
out to nicely. .....s
In many Of the older English houses
are found walls that, instead of being
plumb and exact, bulge and recede In
a manner most inexplicabie. Yet even
so these walls have stood for cen
turtles and today are serving as models
for ambitious architects

Oil From Soybean Seed
Valuable Part of Crop

Brought here from the Orient, the
soybean has proved valuable adj
dition to American crop plants.
However, the problem of develop
ing it to its full possibilities Is
complicated and will take long and
patient study.
The oil that Is pressed from the
seed Is one of the most valuable
products of the soybean crop and
naturally has received part Of the
major attention of Investigators.
Studies have established that In
breeding for quantity and quality
of Oil in the soybean, the best pro-
cedure seems to be to analyze
adapted varieties and then isolate
the best line from, the best variety.
After the best line has been isolat-
ed, further selection is ineffective.
Differences In oil content are be-
lieved to be inherited, but attempts
to obtain types with increased oil
content by crossing lines from the
same variety were unsuccessful.

Hog Ration

At the Illinois experiment station
some years ago, two lots Of TO
pound pigs were fed in dry lot till
they reached a weight of 237 pounds
per head. Lot / was fed shelled
corn, alfalfa meal and tankage,
while Lot 2 was fed corn, soybean
meal, alfalfa meal and a mineral
mixture composed Of equal quanti-
ties by weight of ground limestone,
steamed bone meal and salt.
These two lots both consumed
exactly the same amount Of feed
per hundred pounds of gain. Lot 1
ate 800 pounds corn. "a pounds OF
tankage and 8 pounds alfalfa meal
per hundredweight of gain, while
Lot 2 ate 352 pounds corn, Sc
pounds soybean oil meal, IL pounds
alfalfa meal and one pound of min

about 40 per cent of protein while
tankage contains 60 per cent. Thus

Simplicity and Dignity
49,. Needs of Small Home

Dignity and simplicity are the ba
sic essentials of the successful small
house. Pussy and elaborate details
not only detract from the architec.
tural merits of a house, but needless
~ add to it's cost. -
The realization Of this fundamental
architectural principle is slowly being
driven home to the American people
with the result that we are begin
ming to see a great improvement in
our domestic architecture. r -
The increased cost of building that
followed the armistice has at least
one good effect. 1t made people give
more serious consideration to the ma.
terials used in home building and
greatly increased the use Of the more
permanent materials.
People appreciate more than ever
that there is little difference between
the cost of the cheaper materials an0
the best, especially when the differ
ence is reduced to percentage OF
the total investment. The use of bet
ter materials and construction and
the growing appreciation Of the good
in architectural design is adding to
the attractiveness of many an Amer
lean community.

Great Damage Done by

The other day q merchant who

through the skin, while along the
back were several tell-tale holes, the
work Of the MARBLE fly. Branding
is no doubt a necessity for ranchers
where stock roam the open range,
but why cannot the marks be placed
on the neck or other less valuable
part of the hide than the rump or

Experiments in Feeding
Beef Calves for Market

Live stock growers and feeders
are interested in cutting the cost of
production of the market animal.
One Of these methods is to use as
large a portion of roughage as pos
sible to replace the higher priced
grain feed. With this thought In
mind q number Of experiments In
feeding beef calves for market
have been conducted at the Michi-
gan State college. 1t has often been
said that the production of baby
beef is special project which re-
quires expert knowledge of cattle
feeding. This tradition has been
upset repeatedly when these vigor-
Gus youngsters have outstripped the
older cattle on the feed lot. 1t is
an outstanding fact with any class
of live stock that the younger the
animal the more pounds he will add
to his weight on given amount Of
feed.

Best Handling of Manure

IF manure is left in the stall or
feed yards where it will be kept
moist and thoroughly tramped, so
as to exclude air, there is no better
method of storing. Some of the
liquid manure may be lost when
earth floors are used and it may be
economical to provide concrete
floors to prevent this loss. This
method of handling manure Is ad-
visable mainly where well-bedded
stalls are provided for horses, and
In cattle sheds or mule barns where
the animals run loose and the
tramping is very thorough. .s
1t is best to have a system of
cropping so that place to scatter
manure will be available during
most Of the year. This will avoid
the necessity for storing any great
amount of it about the farm. Thus,
In rotation of corn, oats, wheat
and clover, the manure would usu-
ally be applied to the clover sod
and plowed under for corn.-Mis.
souri, Farmer.
