Washington, February 15--Back of the proposals to ciotfte the incoming president with broad powers over government affairs is "the fear that Congress may overstep in its generosity to the new regime. The executive and legislative bodies of' the federal government have always been jealous of their rights and privileges, ihe most interesting development of ihcmonth relates to the unusual liberality of the Democratic legislators in abuicating their constitutional power so that tne President may have relatively free hand in re-organizing executive branches in the interest of economy and efficiency. Some of the seasoned veterans nave contributed' the "cynical observation that Congressional leaders may have a change cf heart "when the honeymoon ends" meaning, of course, alter Mr. Roosevelt has his first spat over policies. Letters coming into Washington invariably submit this question, "How will Roosevelt fare vyith Congress and Tyhat can the coiintry expert!" A careful check reveals that the, flext Chief Executive stands a splendid chance of having a large portion of his major projects written into law. But, it must be remembered that this opinion holds on the promise that a special session will be called in the early spring. The dopesters say that Roosevelt must stake his future on the first session as his party will be in complete Control and enthusiastic in showing their leadership to the country. The same promise is not held out for Sl»bsequent sessions during the new administration. Political wrangling- and factions will have a tendency to place rocks on the course for the ship of state. Controversies whicn apparently will not settle show the futility of beer legislation at this session. The Blaine measure now before the Senate promises nothing but prolonged debate. Even the "wets" are not satisfied- with the proposal which indi^ cates valuable time will be consumed with discussion of amendments. A summary of the talk in the cloakrooms indicates that the present Congress will adjourn with a few appropriation bills awaiting attention. It is said to be part of the Democratic strategy to obtain certain authorizations for Mr. Roosevelt. The banking and business groups are searching out information to determine the policy of the next Congress on deflation. Tariff revision, too, warrants concern with industrial leaders. The Senate was told this week "the country is interested in legislative results and not in irrelevant politics". It was truism uttered in condemnation of partisan oratory. But, the author of the sage comment, Senator Vandenberg of Michigan, Immediately launched into a political speech. It is typical of the session. The aftermath of the sensational Bary expulsion was not at all to the liking of the Senate. While they harangued on the inference of bribery in an article prepared by their sergeant-at-arms, it is generally conceded that the reference.ro ^'demagogues" inflamed the Senators. -/ , "The dictionary defines a demagogue fts "an unprincipled politician," a de- • Script ion which obviously cuts deeper ppder the Senatorial hide than bribery." There i's nothing more persistent or boresome than a fanatic. The House has repeatedly with an almost overwhelming vote rejected and censured Representative McFadden, Republican | of Pennsylvania, in his efforts to impeach President Hoover fof "high crimes and misdemeanors in office". McFadden persists in the exercise of his right of free speech and the Hou% is obliged to listen before voting down his proposals. Any and all measures bearing McFadden's name are foredoomed. He must depend on his friends in the House to sponsor legislation that he wants passed. The leaders explain it with the old phrase "he has only himself to blame." The appearance of nationally-known business leaders before the Senate Finance Committee to set forth their ideas on fighting the depression has not changed the picture. The views of these men have been advanced from time to time in their fields and their practical suggestions adopted wherever possible.' As Secretary of the Treasury Mills aptly said at Kansas City Saturday, February 11, "there is no dearth of programs, plans, schemes and panaceas of every variety". This Cabinet officer was particularly bitter against plans for producing inflation. New York Dairyman Tells of His Experience. ®fi AAg«r^icuuilTtuurre«.--ew wWTNmU k *Let the dairy record club keep your milk records for you,** Is the advice of George Heibler of Chatham, N. Y., a farmer member of the dairy record club. "The record club can test the milk samples cheaper than It can be done at home, and then, the club records are more complete and mean more," Mr. Heibler says. Mr. Heibler was formerly a member of the dairy record club In Columbia. County. He wq& In the club three months and then discontinued. He decided to keep the records on his cdws himself at home and sitve the money which he was paying the dairy record club each month to keep figure these records for him. , ; While doing his milk testing and record keeping at hoihe, Mr. Heibler decided to find out what it was costing him. He figured the cost of his aeid and other testing supplies. He charged up the time which was required. After a few months of this home testing and record keeping, he concluded that he could get his records through the dairy record club for less than he could afford to keep-- them himself, Mr. Heibler told his farm bureau agent he expected to go back in the club. Dairy farmers can keep their own production records, but which they figure the_lime It takes from other farm work, they will find It does not pay*-,. : Effect of White Clover in Producing Bloating According to Prof. Andrew C. Mc- Candllsh, formerly of the Iowa agricultural experiment station and now of the West of Scotland agricultural college, white clover not only has a varying content of cyanoglucoside, but the possibility of hydrocyanic acid content having a distinctly harmful effect has also to be considered. It would also appear probable that a saponin In clover forage may act as a preventive of normal belching of gas from the paunch and so help to cause serious bloating of that organ. It Is this saponin that Is supposed to cause frothing of feed In the paunch, and that frothing tends to cause bloat. These subjects are being studied, and there Is need of more experimental work on the question In America. Meanwhile it may be stated that the heroic four-ounce dose of pure turpentine and four-ounce dose of aromatic spirits of ammonia, administered In a quart of new milk, still proves remedial In a severe case of bloating, while many owners pin their faith to a large dose of formaldehyde solution, similarly diluted with milk, and others get good results from keroln milk.--Hoard's Dairyman. "Production Cost Figures , The feed necessary to produce a pound of butterfat may vary from 7 to more than 17 cents, even in tested herds, according to figures tabulated on 22 herds in the White-Carroll association by Tester Dale Haselby. One cow which produced less than 200 pounds of fat annually consumed $32.68 worth of feed, or 17.8 ccnts for each pound of hutter. Four cows In the 200-to-300-pound fat class required $33.78 in feed, or 13.8 cents per pound of fat". The feed for nine cows in the 300-to-400-pound group cost $37.95 per cow, but averaged only 10.3 cents per pound; while six cows producing between 400 and 500 pounds consumed $nly $40.34 worth of feed, or 9.3 cents per pound. The two cows In the 500- to-600-pound class were fed $42.73 worth of grain and roughage at a cost of 7.7 cents per pound of fat produced. Although It cost more for feed for the higher-producing cows, they were far more efficient In production.'-- Indiana Farmer's Guide.
