Pettengill Of Ohio, Says

Most Needed
OPPOSITION SEES
ITS CAUSE BOOSTED

WASHINGTON. April |. (UP)
Opponents of President RooSe-
velt'S judiciary program claimed
today that the administration is
losing ground in its own tabula-
ton of congressional support for
enlargement of the supreme
court.
There would not be 81 votes
in the senate for the pending jul
dietary bill if it were brought 10
a vote today" Senator Burton h.
Wheeler, d.. Mont asserted in
surveying this weeks offensive
against the measure.
THE administration is not even
sure. of 35 votes. They might get
4 majority if they cut the pro-
posed increase of justices from
six TO two"
Another Democratic senator OPP
posing the bill said privately that
the administration leaders check
ed senate sentiment on the mea-
sure some weeks ago and report
ed they could count on go votes.
Later, he asserted, they reduced
their claim to 5G votes and the
last poii resulted in q statement
last weekend that there We're At
least 50 votes behind the mca-
sure.
Administration leaders counter
ed that they were certain OF
enough votes 10 pass the bill.
Dean Harry " Bates of the
Michigan law school continued
the attack on the plan before the
senate judiciary committee today,
He said that by accepting the
presidents proposal Amer { a

tional birthright for an mmcdl-
ate gain leading toward a change
in our form OF government To the

Opposition leaders generally
viewed developments as favorine
their cause. They pointed in par
ticular to the Monday court de-
cisions upholding the Washington
minimum wage law which they
viewed as taking the strength out
of much administration argu'
ment for the court bill.

Good News For
Chicken Farmers

The national situation in regard
to feed, eggs in cold storage, output
of chicks from hatcheries, and per
capita consumption of eggs as re-
ported to the Arizona agricultural
extension service directly reflects
conditions in Arizona, says County
Agent K. K. HenneSs.
A more favorable situation is in
sight for poultrymen after the first
of the year. Ample supplies Of feed
grains, including wheat for poultry
feeding, and somewhat higher egg
prices as compared with those this
year are in prospect.
The more favorable feed situa-
ton as affecting poultrymen is like
ly to result in a larger hatch in
1898 compared with 1887, but that
the supply of poultry in the first
half of next year will probably be
less tnan IN IHe CoIlOopOHuiHo
period this year.
1t is reported that the consump-
ton of poultry in the first half OF
1897 was much larger than in the
corresponding period of 1886, as
indicated by the exceptionally
large out-of-storage movement, and
bv the large reduction in laying
flocks from January to July l this
wear. But in the last six months or
1897, reduced consumption is ike
ly because of smaller marketlngs'
For the same reason, consumption
in the first half of 1898 is expected
to continue low.
Poultry storage stocks are ex-
pected to be less in the first hall
of 1888 than in the corresponding
period of 1887. With probably
smaller marketings of eggs, stor-
age of eggs also are expected 10 De
smaller in 1898 than they have been
throughout this year.
The size of the farm laying
flocks, the report pointed out has
fluctuated quite regularly in three
year cycles, the last low point be-
ing in the winter of 1934-35. 1t is
expected that the winter OF l9of-oo
will make another such low point
hut that by the fall of 1898 laying
flocks will be larger than in the
! fan of 1887.

New Rules Issued On
The Cotton Farming

Oct. 22.-There are several
points in regard to the Cotton Price
Adjustment Payment Program and
the 9 cent commodity credit cor
poration loan program on which
farmers should be informed accord
ing to County Agricultural Agent
X. X. Henness.
1t is necessary that all cotton be
actually sold before July l to be
eligible for a cotton price adjust
ment payment. Cotton which is
held under the 8 cent loan after
July l, 1888, will not be eligible.
The cotton price adjustment pay
ment will be made on 65 per cent
of the base production which was
or could have been established un-
der the 1887 Agricultural Conser-
walton program.
Any farmer who has filed work
sheet in 1897 should Immediately
contact the office of the County As
sociation to fill out the necessary
forms.
Word has recently been received
from George F. Farrell, Director OF
the Western Division that the date
for filing sales certificates has been
changed in order to take care OF a
situation arising through lack OF
forms.
The new regulation provides tha;
all cotton sold previous TO October
Is must have a sales certificate
filed for it in the office of the Co
unity Association before October 81.

Borah Attacks Crop
Destruction AS Policy

Compulsory reduction Of crops a
feature of the Administrations past
agricultural programs-has no
place in "a sound, permanent agri-
cultural policy" William e. Borah
declared October 20.
"If it is found necessary to draw
upon the public treasury in order
to deal with the farm problem" he
said. 81 would rather support a
measure to buy up and store the
surplus and see that it gets to those
in need of it rather than to buy de-
struction"
Citing farm legislation as sub
ject for the impending special ses-
sion OF Congress, the Republican
Independent said in an address
here: Things which may be ex-
tremely unwise as permanent
policy.
'In this country we have millions,
literally millions, in great need OF
those things which it is proposed
by some that we destroy.
when we advertise to the world
that we are going to reduce our
acreage in any world commodity it
exctes other nations to increase
their acreage, which other nations
now are doing.
"The cotton producer is in al
most as serious a condition now as
he ever experienced. What has hap
pened to the cotton grower will in
evitably happen to those who pro-
duce wheat or corn under the same
policy"

AGRICULTURE COACH RE-
VIEWS KANSAS CITY TRIP

VIEWS KANSAS CITY TRIP
Mr.. Robert NJ Springfield, form
er coach for tn eDuncan Livestock
Judging team, gives the following
summary of his Kansas City trip
with his team:
We left Duncan early Friday
morning-Saturday found us in
Dallas, Texas, where we attended
the Pan-American Exposition. Sun
day night we arrived in Kansas
City, where we had reservations
at the Drake Hotel.
Most of Monday was spent at the
American Royal Stockshow, one of
the greatest shows in the world.
Governor Stark was Mtssouri's
spokesman at the American Royal.
The following is quoted from the
governors speech:
1--WE come here each year in the
knowledge that we will find here
all that is best in high bred i've
stock upon which so much of the
prosperity of our western states de-
pends.
But we do not come to the Am
erican Royal solely for the purpose
of watching the blue blooded aristo-
Gratis of the farm and show ring
compete.
To my mind the feature of this
show is the youth activities which
have been gathered here and around
which the show is centered.
am told that those who fostered
the American Royal had this in
mind. 1t was their contention that
the future of the livestock industry
depended largely upon the coming
generation. Therefore, they gave
special attention to the boys and
girls engaged in the raising oil
livestock, by arousing their interest
in the improvement of breeds and
the problems Of feeding and mar
keting. which are inseparable from
successful operation in this highly
competitive field"
Tuesday morning the boys judged
against all the other teams OF the
United States. LIE Roy Rainvlile
one of the Duncan boys, judging IN
competition with ia boys on beel
cattle. made a perfect score, and
thereby stands in first place IN the
limited States in beef cattle ]udg
ing. His award for this really out
standing achievement was a ~
Jewel gold watch plus $40 in cash
and a Judging certificate.
Ire Lunt, a second team member
placed seventh in the United States
in the Sheep judging contest.

over to the great American Royal
Horseshow.
