State Capitol News

For the first time in its history,
the Minnesota Federation of Labor at
its state convention at CloQuet last
week endorsed candidates for public
office. The full state ticket Of the
Farmer-Labor Party was endorsed by
name, the only party which received
endorsement for state office. Endorse
ment also was given to President
Roosevelt.
This was labor's answer to the pre-
posterous claim of Martin A. Nelson
and other Republican spokesman that
this party of reaction was the friend
of labor. 1t was labor's answer to
its foes who profess to believe in the
rights of collective bargaining but
who constitute the only political party
in America today which represents
a barrier to labor attaining the right
of collective bargaining.
Our esteemed contemporary, Mr.. r.
w. Hitchcock, Republican prOpagan-
dist, has been making some rather pre-
pOSltTOuS duu ldHldStlC Va
friendship displayed by the Republi-
can Party to labor. He has cited IA
labor bills introduced in the 1898 SEES
sion which he says were passed by
the Republican-controll Senate and
killed" by the liberal-controlled
House.
The burden of his argument is that
the Republican Senate was far more
generous in passing labor legislation
than was the House, under more or
less liberal control through union
of Farmer-Laborites and Democrats
Hence, he says, the Republicans and
not the Farmer-Laborites are the
friends of labor.
Naturally, our curiosity was aroused
and we looked into this situation
What did we find?
In not a single instance was one OF
the labor bills introduced in either
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1936-10-01

the Senate or the House by a Re-
publican. In the Senate the bills met
the opposition of all the Republican
leaders.
Let us take one Of the bills. Senate
file No. 742 and House file No. 1928.
This bill provided for paying the
highest rate of wages on public works.
1t was passed in the Senate by vote
of 80 to 81. the liberals in that body
winning the support of the more
moderate Republicans. Among those
who voted against the bill were the
following Republican leaders: Rockne.
Lightner. Bonniwell, Sullivan. Weber
and others.
In the House this same bill passed
by vote of 80 to 10 with Roy Dunn,
Republican House leader and now
national Republican committeeman
voting against it.
The same story is repeated in all
he other Is bills. The vote was
virtually the same as on this one.
Mr.. Hitchcock says that the House
'silled the bills which the Senate
voted. What happened was that the
Senate bills and the House bills diff
fered slightly in phraseology and word
ing and hence the Senate bills were
substituted for the House bills. There
fore, Mr.. Hitchcock's fictitious con-
tentions that the House killed" these
bills.
This is the kind of stuff they are
using to fool the voters! Incidentally.
it presents a type of specious argu-
ment which a scribe Of Mr.. Hitch
cocks standing should not resort to-.
1t does his profession no good.
In some counties the local admin
istrative bodies for old age assistance
have been in doubt as to just how
medical and hospital assistance might
be provided for, if needed, in the
monthly budget of a recipient.
In other instances it has been as
,umed that no local relief provisions
could be made for such medical care
or services to an old age assistance
recipient who was not receiving the
maximum grant of $4,000 per month.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1936-10-01

The state Attorney Generals office
has given a recent opinion upon these
points which will clear the matter up
for the old age assistance county
agencies and the local relief authors
ties.
The Attorney-Gen holds that an
old age assistance grant may properly
include items for medical, dental.
surgical or hospital assistance or
nursing. 1t is also held that local
relief agencies may grant such care.
where needed. to any old age assist
ance recipient, regardless Of the
amount he or she may be receiving
monthly from this source.
If the LaFollette Senate investigat-
ing committee accomplishes nothing
else, it already has succeeded in pro-
ducing evidence of what is behind
some OF the labor disorders we have
experienced in this country.
The testimony before the Commit
tee disclosed scores of cases where
strike-breaking agencies engaged to
break strikes actually were engaged
instead to create disorders, even to
the point Of killing, in efforts to dis
credit the workers. Union men were
slugged for no other purpose than to
start a riot, and machine guns were
placed in the hands of irresponsible
people to use Unfortunately.
All of these things may startle the
average citizen, who would find it
very difficult to believe that those
hiring strike breakers would resort
to such extreme and inhuman prac-
tice. 1t, however, does not come as
surprise to those familiar with the
situation.
Labor men in Minnesota for some
time have cOntended that their organ
izations have been infested with spies
not so much to find out what the
unions were doing, or were planning,
but for the purpose of creating mis-
chief, and Indictment to riot.

Stripping Cow Now
Practical Routine
Incomplete Milking Does Not Hasten Decline in Milk
Flow or Inure Health Of Cow Experiment Shows

Dairy farmers who are short of
help at milking time can dispense
with the laborious chore Of strip
ping" and the only Ill effect will be
the loss of about half Of the milk
in the stripping.
In a recent experiment conducted
by T. E. Woodward, r. p. Hotis. and
r. y. Graves, of the U. 8. Bureau
OF Dairy Industry, they found that
leaving pound or so of milk In the
uddsS at each milking does not
cause rapid drying of, as Is COM
monty believed. Neither does 1t lower
the percentage Of butterfat in the
milk, affect the normality Of the
milk. nor injure the health of the
COW. Furthermore, neither com.
plete nor incomplete milking showed
any tendency to force cows into
clinical cases Of mastitis or to cause
other udder troubles.
The bureau investigators conclude,
therefore, that the only factors hav-
ing bearing on whether or not
stripping. or complete milking,
should be practiced on a dairy farm
are the value Of the extra milk OBJ
tanned by complete milking. the cost
Of the extra labor. and the santa
tion Of the product.
In the early part Of the expert
ment. the cows were stripped by
hand after the teat cups of the
milking machine had been removed,
to accomplish complete milking.
Stripping was soon discontinued,
however. and complete milking was
accomplished while the teat cups
were still in place, by manipulating
or massaging the udder with the
hands at the close Of the milking
period. Observations had shown
that this nassaging method removes
the last milk as completely as hand
stripping. The fnassaging method
consists In pulling down on the teat
cups and at the same time gently
squeezing the lower part of the I'D
der, care being taken to avoid
squeezing so hard as to cause
bruises. Bruises are generally rec
ognized as one Of the causes OF
mastitis.
Fourteen cows were each MIXED
for at least two lactation periods
during the experiment. Seven were
first MIXED completely for a lacta-
ton period and then MIXED incom-
pletely for the next lactation. The
other seven were first MIXED incom-
pletely and then completely.
The quantity Of milk left in the
udder by an incomplete milking va
ried with the different cows from O.8
to al pounds at a milking, the aver
age being IL pounds.
The Investigators conclude from
this experiment that not all the
milk left In the udder at an incom-
plete milking is permanently lost.
Some Of 1t is recovered at the next
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-11-12

milking resulted in only 300 pounds
more per COW, 1t is evident that 270
pounds, or Al per cent Of the 576
pounds, was recovered in subsequent
milkings, and only SO per cent of
that left at each incomplete milking
was permanently lost.
The extra time spent in stripping
or massaging to complete milking
averaged 80 seconds, or So hours
during a lactation period. Since
complete milking resulted In net
gain of 306 pounds over incomplete
milking, the return was SO pounds
of milk for each hour spent In the
stripping or massaging process.
"Under ordinary conditions" the
investigators reported ut Is unlikely
that one hour of labor will cost
more than SO pounds Of milk is
worth. AS a rule, therefore, 1t will
pay to complete the milking process.
This experiment would indicate that
not much milk should be left In the
udder, but neither should the mixer
spend much time trying to get the
last drop of milk; otherwise, the
cost OF stripping may exceed the
value of the 'strippings.'
Although the cows In this expert
ment were MIXED by machine, 1t
appears that the results are also
applicable to hand milking"
