1t is said that SO pupils OF For

blocking the roads that day SO that

the pupils at their homes. They
were taken in by farmers near by
until they could be taken home
with teams.

STRAIGHT FROM WASHINGTON
fRy Stephen NJ. Youngl

A Democratic senator who had
campaigned throughout his entire
state for Al Smith in 1928, used
some forceful language the other
day in an address on the floor Of
the senate. 81 want Governor Al
fred e. Smith," he said, when he
is surrounded by these leeches and
blood suckers from the American
Liberty League to remember that
the attacks he makes are on the
very best friends he ever had and
that the first principle OF hapDl-
ness in life is the remembrance Of
friendship and tempted as he will
be to give way to following the ad-
vice of J. Pierpont Morgan and
] Pierre dupont and all Of the rest
. Of these rascals ard crooks who
control the American Liberty
League-I say that Governor Smith
ought to first remember that no
man can successfully turn his back
on a friend

with Japan. Serving on the naval
affairs committee, naturally war
talk bobs up now and then. The
facts are that Japan, of all coun-
tries of the world, is Uncle Sans
second best customer. In 1885 the
Japs bought 115 million dollars
worth of cotton produced in the
United States They purchased
many millions of dollars worth of
additional products of American
farms and factories. In 1885 they
sold us less than one million dollars
worth of merchandise. In other
words, for each soc in American
money paid to Japan, Americans re-
ceived more than $115. A man
should not fight one of his best GUS
toners nor should a nation.

Molasses, Cheap
Live Stock Feed
Can Be Fed Either Diluted
or Undiluted, Sprinkled
on the Hay.
BY Prof E. S. Savage, New York State Col
lege Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Service.

BY Prof. q. s. Savage, New YoTk State COL
lege of Agriculture.-WNU Service.
Cane molasses is a good feed for
livestock, and is the cheapest feed
on the market. Farmers are urged
to become familiar with it and to
learn to use it.
Molasses is hard to distribute, but
it is planned to have it widely avail
able in drums this winter. Reports
from a hurried study of the New
York milk shed indicate that retail
prices for molasses in drums may
be from $21 to $26 ton.
Cane molasses is about one-fourth
water and has in it more than Sc
per cent of total digestible nutri-
,ents. The principal constituent is
about SIS per cent total sugars which
give molasses its feed value. A ton
of molasses, or III gallons, has
about .three-fourths the value of corn
when properly used in the ration.
The following amounts may be
used for stock with excellent results
along with other feeds:
Seven to nine pounds a day for
horses and mules; two to three
pounds for dairy cows; three to
four pounds for beef cattle; one to
two pounds for hogs; and half
pound for sheep and lambs. These
suggestions as to amounts are con-
sentative, and every feeder should
try to use the maximum.
1t can be fed either diluted with
hot water or undiluted. If diluted,
the molasses can be sprinkled over
the hay, silage or grain. If undilut-
ed, a paddle or big spoon spreads
it on the roughage or grain in the
manger. A mixture of one-haf mo-
lasses and one-half water will not
freeze.
Roughage such as corn stalks can
be cut or shredded and sprinkled
before feeding with diluted molas-
SEES; or stout, shallow box about
four feet square with faring sides
about six inches deep, put up on
strong, well braced legs, makes a
good self-feeder in the yard. A bar
rel of molasses can be placed end
up in the feeder and a single
placed under it so that the molasses
flows out slowly.

Dry Period 3l-6o Days
Found Best for JERSEYS

Perhaps no definite answer can be
made as to the exact time a COW
should rest between periods of lac
tation, for much depends upon the
condition of COW when she
is through milking and how well
she RECEIVERS from her work, states
a writer in Hoard's Dairyman.
Arnold and Becker of the Florida
Agricultural Experiment station
found that dry period of 81 to 60
days was necessary for Jerseys to
produce maximum milk yields. A
dry period of longer than 81 days
appeared to result in lower milk pro-
duction. When COWS were dry less
than 80 days, there was an indica-
ton of an earlier decline in milk
yield than those receiving a longer
rest period.
In practice it has been stated that
a COW should rest from a month to
six weeks and this research by the
Florida Experiment station indi-
Gates that this is about the right
period for cows to recover in order
to secure the best flows of milk.

Built Straw Silo

When the hot July Sun scared
Frank Canfeld's cornfeld, running
promising crop on which he had
counted to feed out a bunch of cat
tie, he felt blue. Mr.. Garfield, who
farms east of Des Moines, Iowa,
reports the Country Home Maya
zine, began figuring the best way
to use his fodder crop which was
good. He had a big pile of baled
straw and that gave him an idea;
build silo of straw bales! He lost
no time building a huge round silo
and filling it to the brim with his
blasted corn crop Now he finds that
a straw silo has'several advantages.
The walls 60 down as the silage re-
cedes, and there is no pitching up as
with pit silo. Pliers, pitchfork,
and little headwork are providing
his hungry cattle with both bed and
board.

gressive members of The Sewing
Circle.
Pattern 1812-Little Miss Two
To Five can manage her own
dressing with the aid of this frock
that buttons down the front. She
will be the picture of daintiness

cess lines, puff sleeves and an in
triguing little collar. The one piece
step-in is the essence of practical
ity-a great boon to the young
ster's comfort. This ensemble is
available in sizes 2, 3, 4 and 5
years. Size requires 25s yards
of 35 or 80 inch fabric and rs
yard contrasting.
Pattern 1998-This new dress

women alike. 1t is a combination

the strictly formal.

MastitiS

Mastitis may be regarded as any
abnormal condition in the cows I'D
der. Whether this condition is such
that it can be transmitted to other
cows depends on the nature of the
trouble and perhaps more on how
far it has progressed. Young ami
mails are not so likely to be affected
as are older ones, particularly those
of high production. 1t is not unusual
for good dairy cows to have a swol-
len or congested udder for several
days after calving. The milk at
such times is not always normal.
This does not mean that the COW
has infectious mastitis. - Hoard's
Dairyman.

gram to realize that the representa-
tives' inquiry into it was political in
its motive.
The plan was rolling up following
which alarmed many of the lawmak-
ers who did not care to subscribe to
it-meaning most Of them, both DEM
Ocrats and Republicans. However,
though they regarded it as too much
of a crackpot idea with which to be-
come identified, they were fearful
that their reelection chances would
be endangered if they refused to do
so.
Accordingly, they hit on the scheme
of trying to make it ridiculous.
REAL PURPOSE
That was the real purpose of Chair
man G. Jasper Bells committee.
The Townsendites were given a mo-
dicum of representation in it's MEM
bership, but not enough to have any
significant voice in it's proceedings.
The majority were totally unconcern-
ed as to the propositions merits or
dement's. They already were convinc-
ed that it was unavoidable. Their
whole purpose was to give it plenty
of unfavorable advertising.
At this task they were quite sue
