Retort That Appealed to Roosevelt’s Humor The agitation about the useless noises of a big city remluds a cer tain eighty-three-year-old Washing ton contractor of a time when his company was filling In the land that Is now Potomac park. There was a battery of dredges at work there, and their puffing, snorting, and scraping so disturbed the repose of the members of the White House family that a certain Colonel Haines was sent to register a complaint by none other than the nation’s Chief Executive. “You tell the President,” said the chief of the contracting gang, "that I’m sorry I can’t grind out sym phonies.” And when he received the answer. Theodore Roosevelt laughed long and loud and the work of the dredg era continued. Known as Sea Unicorn The narwhal, an Arctic whale, Is known also as the “sea unicorn.” Like the dolphin, it travels in schools, but It Is seldom seen south of the polar seas. Little is known of it, but in the logs of old-time mariners, there was "frequent report of the piercing of a vessel's hull by a nar whal's ivory tusks. Because the cen ter of the tusk, or horn, Is hollow, ivory of the narwhal has never achieved commercial importance. He Knows Mrs. Diggs—John, have you any idea what marriage really means to a woman?

Adding to the commission’s prob lem, it reports, is the necessity for international agreement on fre quency allotments and the fact that this country Is now using more than Its share. At the next conference, to be held in 1932, there is expected an inter national scramble for wave lengths. To obtain even greater international s^isideration, or even to retain its hold on the lion’s share, the United States, through the commission, will have to show the best possible use of the present facilities. For that and other reasons, the com mission reports, it has become in creasingly difficult to secure per mission to broadcast. The applicant must not only show a real public need, but also prove ability to meet it During the last year there has been almost a complete revolution in the type of equipment, it is stated in the report. This was the result of the commission's order that all stations have equipment that would limit station interfer ence. During the year the total num ber of broadcasting stations was reduced by nine, leaving 612 sta tions operating. Eleven new sta tions were authorized and 20 de leted. Of the 20 stations off the air. eight were consolidated, two voluntarily relinquished their li censes and 10 were denied re newal. Of the 612 active stations, 420 now operate simultaneously at night—all on 90 frequencies. In the use of radio telephone, the United States Is leading the world, the report shows. Today over 86 per cent of the worlds telephones are offered commer cial inter-connection in one net work by use of radio. Rapid progress in the field of television was reported, but as yet It has not recognized commercial television. The radio traffic problem has been increased during the year by the increase of aviation broad casts, the commissioners declare Police radio also has added to the ether congestion, but, writes the commission, this development has proved so valuable in the re duction of crime that it is weJJ worth while.

The Japanese army, in violation of various treaties, in cluding certain to which the United States is a signatory, is marching on Chinchow. Secretary of State Stimson has gone off on a shooting holiday. The state department, lack ing a definite policy, refuses to act or comment on the Manchurian crisis. Rarely, if ever, has the foreign policy of the United States been so bankrupt as today. Japan’s betrayal of the (American) Nine-Power treaty guaranteeing the territorial and administrative integrity of China, and Japan’s betrayal of the (American) Kellogg Anti-War pact, cannot be jus tified. But at least it can be understood, considering the militarists in power. But America’s betrayal of the treaties cannot be un derstood. Our government has betrayed the treaties. It is a be trayal to refuse—as our government has refused—to in voke those treaties against a violator. Never since September 18, when Japan began her treaty violations, has the United States as a signatory of those agreements directly or openly charged Japan with guilt. Ana wnen tne League of Nations council issued a time ultimatum to Japan in defense of American treaties, our government—by refusing to co-operate—in effect invited Japan to defy the ultimatum. If the United States government had been in league with the Japanese militarists to seize Manchuria and de stroy the American treaties the result could not have been more disastrous. Of course, our government had no such motive. But, regardless of motive, in fact its cowardly secret diplomacy has played into the hands of the Japanese militarists from the beginning. This is not a case of hindsight being better than fore sight. Ever since the September 18 invasion supporters of the treaties have pointed out that the state department’s do nothing policy was encouraging Japan to destroy the world’s peace machinery. Now that the Hoover-Stimson policy has failed so com pletely; now that Japanese militarists are masters of Man churia; now that the United States has advertised to the world that it will not co-operate with other neutral na tions to restrain a treaty outlaw, the least our government can do Is to withdraw its ambassador from Japan in pro test. The United States does not run the world. The United States cannot and should not seek to dominate Japan or any other nation. The United States should not intrude in local foreign disputes which do not concern it. But the United States should keep faith with its own treaties. So long as Japan persists in violating its treaty agreements with the United States this government should withhold from Japan the friendly diplomatic relations ac corded to law-abiding nations. The choice is not ours but Japan’s. If she outlaws herself let her be treated as an outlaw.

In the me instance, several farmers who >wned a 12-horse power gas engine md 17-inch cutter found that it ook an average of 12 hours of man power and 36 hours of horse power to cut 10 acres of corn. The hauling and the loading of this 10 acres re quired three men and two teams, or 48 hours of man power and 64 hours of horse power. One man in the silo and one at the cutter accounted for another 32 hours of man power. The total cost against the 80 tons of su rge secured from the 10 acres is as follows: rx hours of man labor at $0 50_$ 48 00 100 hours of horse labor at $0 20.... 20 00 IS pounds of twine at $0 14. s so 10 gallons of gasoline. 1.S0 Lubricating oil .60 18 hours of engine and cutter hire or depreciation . 18.00 Utnder cost $0.40 per acre. 4,00 The total cost of $91.SO averages $1.15 per ton. Another group of farmers had a 12-horse power engine with a 14 inch cutter and filled silos 14x41 feet with 15 acres of corn at a to tal cost of $218.50. Their detaUed costs were as follows: 214 hours of man labor at $0 50... $107 00 302 hours of horse labor at $0.20.... 60 40 34 pounds of twine at $0 14. 4 68 28 gallons of gasoline. 3.12 Lubricating oil . 1.2S 32 hours engine and cutter hire.... 32 00 Binder cost . 6.00 Total for 140 tons of silage.$218 45 Filling cost per ton. 156 From these two one Is able to ar rive at a more or less average cost of filling a silo. Costs of filling amount to about 40 per cpnt of the total cost of silage. As to the market value of silage, that is best obtained by comparing It with the price of hay. One ton of hav equals In feed ing value about three tons of silage. Where hay In the mow is worth $18 a ton, silage Is worth $6 a ton. An other basis for figuring is that the feeding value of a ton of silage ir, equal to three bushels of corn plus 320 pounds of hay. Where corn is selling at 85 cents and hav at $20, silage on this basis would be worth $5.75. SWINE INFLUENZA During the early winter months when swine are becoming ac customed to their winter quarters, and to sudden and sometimes ex treme changes in temperature, in fluenza or “hog flu" is most likely to cause trouble if not severe loss. Thus far there is no known pre ventative for this disease as in the case of hog cholera; there is no cure except as good nursing may be ap plied to aid affected animals make their own recovery. It is important that swine producers be able to recognize the symptoms of influen za, that these be not confused with tlte symptoms of other diseasees, and that good nursing be applied as quickly as possible to aid the affected animals in their recovery. Here are the chief symptoms of swine in fluenza. "A slight dullness and diminished appetite are observed in from four to seven days after sus ceptible swine are exposed to the infection. Ther is pronounced labored breathing and a coarse, spasmodic cough which appears to be painful. The cough is most noticeable when the animals are first driven from their quarters. Great prostration, loss of appetite, and high temperatures mark the height of the attack. The course of the disease is from two to five days in uncomplicated cases. In some herds large numbers become sick without a death. Those that re cover show a marked loss of flesh. Occasionally many deaths occur from a broncho-pneumonia. “Certain stages of swine influenza bear some resemblance to hog cholera. It can be distinguished from hog cholera, when it occurs in the uncomplicated form, only by the sudden onset and rapid recovery. Swine influenza spreads rapidly in a herd; many animals appear to he extremely sick within a short time and the res pirator symptoms predominate. Hog cholera is a progressive, destructive disease and "rnduallv affects the en tire herd. "Swine influenza may. in mnnv cases, be prevented bv quar antine. All ho
