A NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Tariff Bill Passed by Senate After Months of Heated Controversy. of heated and AFTER months controversy the senate passed the tariff hill by a vote of 53 to 31. It goes back to the house which passed it last May and will be thrashed over In conference committees of the two houses. The result will be a compromise bill which may be expected in about six weeks. The bill as passed by the senate represents a higher degree of protection than that alTorded under the present law, but provides duties on a somewhat lower level than the bill parsed by the house. Senator Reed Pmoot (Rep., Utah) told the spuate that the dutiable Items In the hill as passed represent the equivalent of an average ad valorem rate of 38 99 per cent, as compared with 40.54 per cent as reported from the finance committee, 43.15 per cent as passed by the house, 34 GT per cent In the present law and 21 OS p4fr cent In the Underwood act of 1913. The senate made 1,253 amendments to the house bill, according to Senator Smoot. Among the features of the senate bill are Included many Increases in rates on agricultural products over those granted in the house bill, a somewhat smaller Increase in the duty on sugar than In the house bill. Imposition of duties on cement,and brick on as In the house bill a new-dutsoft wood lumber, elimination pf duties on shingles and hardsood lifiubeu as proposed In the house bill, lower duties than in the house on aluminum, pig Iron, watches and clocks, and on many chemicals and other manufactured articles. Bitter contests in the deliberations of the conference committees of the two houses are expected over the export debenture farm relief provision and repeal of the flexible tariff which are In the senate bill. Senator Borah, who voted for the bill, indicated that he did so chiefly because of his support of these two provisions, and Intimated that he would vote against an conference report that eliminated them. On the final vote on the bill 46 Republicans and 7 Democrats voted for the bill, while 26 Democrats and 5 Republicans voted aga'nst it. The radicals split, seven of them voting for the bill and one being paired for the bill while five voted in the negative. question of paying the pi ice France demands for Joining a navy reduction treaty has been passed up to Great Britain by the United States delegation.

Under a bill fatheied by Representative Cochran the $033,000,000 now held to the credit of the adjusted compensation fund would be made available for the payment to certificate holders of 25 per cent of the face value of the certificates. In his letter Secretary Mellon point ed out that the Cochran proposal Is based on the false assumption that all of the $033,000,000 reserve is immediately available. The fact is that in order to finance the scheme it would be necessary to Increase taxes or authorize a bond issue for the purpose, he wrote, thereby increasing the public debt with a consequent disruption of the orderly program upon which the government is proceeding." Department of Agriculture that a 2 8 per cent Increase in the acreage of corn this par, a 15 per cent decrease in that of durum wheat, and a .1 per cent in crease in the acreage of all other spring wheat, as compared with last year's harvest acreages, were indicated by farmers Intentions on March 1 to phi nt tills spring.

Treasury experts hold that with set tlement of the pending tariff bill tl custom duty collections will expand. Federal actuaries believe the heaviest drain on the treasury will com from the federal farm board. Congress has just appropriated an additional $100,000,000 for the board. How much the boaid will he forced to draw from the fund is dependent upon the agriculture situation. 'TMIE great North German Lloyd liner Etiropa broke the world's record on her maiden trip to the United States.

Throe feeding trials were conducted involving 130 lambs. In which oats, cottonseed meal, clover hay and corn silage were fed In direct comparison with shelled corn, cottonseed meal, clover hay and silage. Corn is a highly efficient grain for finishing market animals, but oats proved to be equally as good, requiring 577 pounds of oats, 51 pounds of cottonseed meal, 261 pounds of hay and 2S4 pounds of silage for 100 pounds of gain, whereas it required 367 pounds of corn. 51 pounds of cottonseed meal, 462 pounds of hay and 434 pounds of siluge for the same amount of gains. Lambs receiving oats in the ration consumed approximately 40 per cent less rough age than the lambs receiving corn. The market value of oats In recent years has often been very low, which is an added advantage of this common grain as a lamb feed. For economical gains It has been found that oats should be supplemented with a protein feed as cottonseed meal, linseed oil meal or soy beans. Twelve pounds of oats to one pound of protein feed is a good proportion In the case of feeding corn, seven pounds of shelled corn to one pound of supplement produces an economical proportion. Gluten Unsatisfactory as a Corn Supplement Corn gluten meal alone Is not a sat corn for fatlsfuctory supplement lo ' tening pigs in a dry lot, tests with choice uniform pigs at the Kansas ag rlcultural experiment station at Manhattan indicate. One group of slioats was fed coi n r and and alfalfa hay In a ,4 pounds of tankage per head, hand fed once a day. A second group was fed corn and alfalfa hay in a seif feeder just as in the first group, but received .6 pounds of corn gluten meal per head once per day, thus differing from the first group In its protein supplement. The pigs receiving tankage gained 1.16 pounds per head per day. Those receiving corn gluten meal gained only .5 pounds. The pigs receiving tankage required 3S3.55 pounds of corn to produce 100 pounds of gain. Those receiving corn gluten meal required 609 56 pounds. Wliere the tankage was fed, cost of gains was $6.62 per 100, and where the corn gluten meal was fed, the cost was $10,65 per 100. The pigs receiving tankage required less than half as much alfalfa hay per 100 pounds gain as those fed corn gluten meal. The results secured In these tests indicate that corn gluten meal alone is not a satisfactory supplement to corn for fattening pigs in a dry lot from the standpoint of daily gains, finish, and cost of gains. self-feede- colic, or diarrhea, yields to the soothing influence of Castoria.

These crops, particularly the alfalfa and clover, are rich in protein, of good mineral content, and palatable. They are highly efficient for hog pasture. To use them often means little else than fencing, temporary or permanent, to hold the stock. Then, to till In the times at which these crops cannot be used or In case of their ab sence, annual forages should be provided. Several such annuals have demonstrated their worth for this purpose.
