years the tuberculosis death rate In
the island was about 100 per 100,-

measures were neglected during the

DANISH RED" CATTLE TO
BE TRIED IN MINNESOTA

A new breed of dairy cattle, de-
veloped within the last so years, is
to be used in breeding experiments
by the Waseca branch of the Min
nesota Experiment station, in CO
operation with the United States
Department Of Agriculture.
The cattle came originally from
Denmark, but the % heifers and
2 bulls to be used in the Waseca
experiments were imported from
the Virgin Islands, West Indies.
They are known as RED Danish"
and rose from a foundation of ma
tive Scandinavian red cattle, i'm
proved with selections from the
leading breeds of continental Eur
ope.
The heifers in the shipment to
be sent to Waseca are each 2 years
old, and the bulls are yearlings.
Mature Danish Red cattle are of
medium height, weigh from LOO
to 1000 pounds and range in color
from light red to a deep cherry
red. The dams of the heifers in the
shipment averaged 525 pounds of
butterfat a year, and the dams of
the sires averaged 622 pounds. The
dam of one of the two bulls aver
aged 768 pounds, and the dam OF
the other bull 637.
Red Danish milk cattle make up
about IS per cent of the dairy COW
population on the Danish islands,
and the greater part of that on the
southeast coast of Jutland. Near
ly so per cent are in control asso-
Citations which keep careful produc-
ton records, and are similar to the
dairy herd Improvement associa-
tions of this country.

that it is a 4-year contract with the
privilege of Withdrawing at the end
of two years or the year 1887. The
contract calls for benefit payments
of not less than 35 cents a bushel
for 1886 on an allotment of 30 per
cent of the production during the
base years. 1t is necessary to grow
for grain 81 per cent Of the base
acreage. The base years are the
same as in the cast of the wheat
contract, namely the years 1930-1-3
Growers that did not grow rye dur
ing this base period but grew rye
since 1892 should make application
if they are interested in this con-
tract even though it cannot be
stated definitely at this time what
base acreage will be permitted for
them. In other words pool is set
up and growers since 1882 will be
given an allotment from the pool

5S-CENT TARIFF
TO BAR POLISH RYE
AAA RYE HEAD SAYS

When rye growers of the United
States embark on their program of
production control, during the COM
ing year, they may rest assured that
their efforts will not be offset by
imports from one of the worlds
largest rye-exporting countries
Poland.
A statement to this effect was
made by DR.. A. H. Benton, national
director of the 1869 rye adjust
ment program, in a conference at
tended by grain allotment commit
teemen and county agents of q
Minnesota counties at University
Farm, st. Paul, last week.
During the last two years, when
the United States raised less than
enough rye for its own needs, DR..
Benton said, "the nation imported
more than 100000 bushels of rye
annually. Most of this came from
Poland, which paid a subsidy as
high as 38 cents per bushel to its
exporters. The United States gov
eminent, under it's tariff laws,
might have levied a countervailing
duty on these imports equal to the
Polish subsidy, but hesitated to do
so because Poland buys goods, both
agricultural and industrial, of a
from Poland. Under conditions
then existing, we needed some rye
also, to supplement our own drouth-
depleted stores.
This year, however, the rye sup
ply in this country, because of a
large 1885 crop and heavy carry
over, is about double the amount
this nation will need for home use
The Treasury Department, there
fore, boosted the tariff rate from
Is cents per bushel, the rate in eff
feet during the last two years, to
SO cents per bushel. This new rate
went into effect November %, and
should be high enough to keep out
any foreign rye.
DR.. Benton reported that the ap'
plication forms for the rye adjust
ment contract, for which the
Stearns County Wheat (Grain) Pro-
duction Control Association has
been waiting patiently for several
weeks, have been printed and will
be placed in the hands of the county
allotment committees soon. ...
Stearns county farmers will be
given an opportunity to sign these
applications as soon as they are re
ceived from Washington, Edwin
MANI chairman of the county al.
lotment committee announces.

CROP REPORT

The month of October, with the
exception of one cold spell which
killed all vegetation and did some
damage to potatoes, was generally
a good month. 1t was a little too
dry in some districts for fall plow-
ing but most favorable for fine
quality of corn. Much corn is being
husked and picked, some of which
is in such a condition that it can be
shelled for market. In other sec
tions there is little too much
moisture and favorable weather is
needed to obtain the best grade of
corn.
Winter grains, on the whole,
should go into the winter in fair
condition.
There was very little snow during
October so that livestock could
range longer than usual and are
generally in good condition.
November reports confirm ear
lier indications regarding the gen.
eral crop situation. There still
appears to be an adequate supply
of nearly all food crops except GER
tain classes of wheat. The potato
crop is smaller than was expected
and includes some potatoes that
were damaged by freezing. While
there is no real shortage, there will
be closer utilization of the lower
grades than was expected. The bean
crop is large, but not seriously ex-
cessive.
Feed grain supplies are sufficient
tc provide about the usual rations
for the reduced number of livestock
on the farms and leave a rather
small carryover. Hay production
was above average and there is
sufficient to permit feeding slightly
more than the usual ration per
head and still leave an average
quantity In reserve next spring.

Industries Assisting
 In Fighting Disease
State Health Department Reviews Successful Efforts
 in Preventing OccupatiOnal Illness

Connecticut's leading industries have lent the very finest coopera- tion to the Bureau of Occupational Diseases of the State Department of Health in it's efforts to secure a healthful working environment for industrial employees, Dr. Albert S. Gray, director of the bureau, stated in the fourth of the departments series of Il Tercentenary broad casts today.
 This cooperation is evidenced. Dr. Gray said, by the many re- quests that have been made by in- dustry to the buerau for surveys and studies of their working con- ditions, and py industry's willing nes to correct any condition affect ing the health of it's workers. In- dustry is deeply concerned, for if it's environment affects the health of the workers industrial costs in- crease. The worker is primarily af- fected, for anything that hurts his health affects his capacity to earn a living and to enjoy life. The com munity is vitally interested, for If the workers health is affected his family suffers.
 The cost of occupational disease is tremendous, but diseases of this type are prevefitable, the director declared. Their control has become health problem of first magni- tude, since modern industry with its vast array of mechanisms, pro- cesses and methods, constantly changing to meet new demands for increased efficiency and speed of production, presents an environ ment embracing a wide variety of conditions which if not controlled bay definitely have an adverse eff feet upon health. Their effects vary from skin irritations to most seri- ous effects on the vital organs of the body.
 Preventive Plan
 To prevent occupational diseases the State Department of Health has worked out a comprehensive plan for control, which starts with a law requiring physicians to re- port cases of such diseases to the department within AS hours. and which empowers the department to investigate such reports. and to un- dertake studies of conditions sus- pected of causing occupational diseases, and to make recommen- dations for their control. These re- ports and results of investigations cannot be used in compensation hearings os as evidence at law.
 The Bureau of occupational Diseases with its staff of technical ly trained experts visits factories or plants having particular nrooess- es or conditions known to be poten- tially hazardous to health. pr. Gray
