Dj CIIERIE NICHOLAS National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart Washington. Congress convenes on January, date, for the first time In our modern history. It meets at that Congress Um. punuant to the Under Way tltutional amendment that was added to our Constitution chiefly through the efforts of Senator George Norrls of Nebraska. Senator Norrls popular lied the Idea by calling it a "lame duck" amendment He argued early and late that a member of congress bad no right to sit In representation of his state or district after he had been defeated at the polls. Which may or may not be the correct theory. At any rate It has hap pened, and a new congress Is under way. Where It is headed as a part of the current phase of the new deal, time alone can tell. There are certain things, however, that are perfectly plain. One of thera Is that President Roosevelt is following a course designed to forestall as much controversy in congress as he Is able to do. In other words, the President appears to have planned a program that will prevent any snowballs from getting started down hill. As the session gets going, one hoars plenty of rumbling. Reasons for dissatisfaction are numerous and varied. But they can be concentrated suddenly. At least that is the record of disgruntled congresses of other years. Mr. Itoosevelt and his advisers and his leaders In congress know It and, hence, everything has been done and Is being done to keep the firing scattered. If there should be an Issue devised or arise on which the bulk of senators and representatives agree In opposi tion to the Chief Executive, there will be plenty of trouble for the administration. Republicans, you know, are not going to pour oil on troubled waters. They play politics, too. Looking over some of the possibilities of trouble, one observes such questions as taxes, permanent liquor control laws, extension of the life of the Reconstruction Finance corporation, banking legislation or revision of laws we now have, reconsideration of the law which requires that every corporation that sells its shares of atock shall register them and comply with laws about Its financial status, relief and recovery legislation In Its various phases and others of no less consequence. Washington observers are saying that each one of these contains elements that may lead to a break between congress and the President But they also are saying that Mr. Roosevelt holds the whip hand and that there are not many members of the senate or house who will take the bit in their teeth. I said a moment ago that Mr. Roosewus aimed to prevent the molding of a snowSilver ball, for It Is a physical fact that once a Buying snowball starts, It gains both In momentum and size. U'hls largely explains the action of the President In proclaiming the London conference treaty on silver buying in effect just when he did. The plan for the American government to consume all of the silver produced in this country will stop some of the inflationists, perhaps fifty of them, right In their tracks. Their states and districts will get the benefit of the silver purchases by the government. It means a profit for them that they have not had in half a dozen years. It is quite obvious that they won't become rabid supporters of a program for Inflating the currency, now. None of the observers here seem to be In a position to say that the silver purchasing and coinage order Is outside of the President's recovery program. They are agreed, however, that It constitutes a smart brand of politics and that It will go a long way toward sustaining the Presidential program In congress. And, If it need be said, there was no assurance heretofore that trie present session of conIngress would not enact straight-ou- t flation legislation on Its own responsibility. velt's course And while the discussion centers on congressional possibilities and potentialities, it seems proper to call attention to a battle that has started on the outside, but directed at congress. I refer to the revival of the long-timopposition to government competition In this instance, the with business. hue and cry concerns competition by numerous relief agencies and also by the Tennessee Valley authority which, to burlesque an old saying, is designed to make two bulbs for electricity grow on the home and farm where one or none grew before. The T. V. A. started out to be an Interesting experiment and a plan to demonstrate what was possible with water power in development of a more or less barren area. Its purposes have been expanded so rapidly that none of us here can keep up with all of its moves. Suffice It to say, however, that the T. V. A. Is now trying to sell electricity for power and light in scores of cities and towns and villages and farms throughout the section from the Ohio river to the Gulf of Mexico. e Getting back to the relief agencies, called, It was the general under- -- Oj Servlc. As crop production Is adjusted closer and closer to domestic needs, there will be less feed to waste, and this means that the $139,000,000 worth of live stock on farms will have to be given n, adequate shelter. Poorly sheltered stock cannot make the most of the feed it eats. Then, too, there Is the added waste and spoil age that comes when live stock feed ing is done without proper protection This is especially important because all feed crops were poor. Further more, the trend now Is toward the ad just went of live stock production, as well as of crops. If farmers are to conserve what live stock they do pn duce and put higher quality products on the market, they cannot neglect the sheltering of their animals. Some shelter can be provided with nothing more than a straw pile In the feed lot. It breaks the wind and fur nishes some overhead shelter during driving storms. Better than the straw pile Is the straw shed, which may be built at a small outlay of time. Forked poles cut from timber and set as posts will support poles, brush and straw for a straw shed. While such sheds are not permanent, they should last for two years and may be rebuilt easily. The saving in manure will more than pay for the time In build ft A 1JP ing. at all for It Is possible to obtain working directions at most any place where materials for paper handcraft are sold. We might say, however, that the swagger collar, cuff and belt set photographed on the standing figure is done in the favorite fish net stitch. The set pictured is In a lovely Chinese red and the dress is beige. Fish net, by the way, is one of the easiest stitches to do and with the t crepe paper you get a true fish-ne- lace effect.

The sporty girdle or belt, sketched to the right above. Is crocheted from brown crepe paper, cut in strips, stretched and twisted. The crocheting Is done in the favorite popcorn stitch and the finished effect In the brown is distinctly that of leather. Brass buttons set this girdle off to perfection. The vest and cuff set. sketched below to the right, is decidedly out of the ordinary. Taking its Inspiration from armor that knights wore in days of old. the designer most appropriately refers to it as the tournament set. The original of this sketch was mRde of Jade green paper.

Goodman of the New York State, College of Ag rlculture. will confine the A good bull safely and provide shelter from bad weather; it will keep the bull strong and virile by allowing him a chance for exercise; it will facilitate herd breeding. The yard should be constructed of good posts, nine feet long, set in the ground three feet and extending above the ground six feet. Rough planks, poles, or other strong, cheap material should be used for the fence, which should be spiked to the posts on the inside, or the side next to the bull. A breeding rack in a good breeding stall, the entrance of which is controlled by a gate, is of vital Importance. "A bull will take more exercise if he is given something to play with," suggests Professor Goodman. A keg, a log, or a steel drum, he says, will encourage the bull to move about. Or place a strong post six feet tall in the middle of the yard and to the top of this fasten a chain about two feet long. To the lower end of the chain fasten a keg or old milk can. The bull will play with this by the hour.

This suggestion is made by It. R. Vnrd, assistant in the forestry department of the Colorado Agricultural college. It Is recommended that the soil be listed in the plains region so it will collect and hold moisture for the use of trees, and at the same time provide a check against soil blowing. Trees planted In newly plowed ground or sod usually do not do well. It is stated. for Five Years with Dandruff Healed by Cuticura one-tent- h Shoes V.ot. Bull Needs Good Yard and Some Playthings The right amount of grain to feed dairy animals during the winter months depends upon the amount of milk the animal is producing and to a lesser extent upon the breed, according to one authority. With Jersey ani ma 3 producing less than ten pounds of milk no grain should be fed. Where the production is above ten pounds s of a pound of grain should be added to the ration for each pound of mill; produced in excess of the ten pounds. The grain supplement is reduced about from this amount for Guernseys producing more than 12 pounds a day, and for Nolsteins producing 10 pounds a The grain ration of course is day. dependent upon a plentiful supply of good legume hay. otherwise the grain ration will have to he increased. floor-lengt- With shoes going higher and higher the instep, the matter of trim fit las become a real problem.

University of WlnoU. W.N'U standing a year ago and less when "public works" were being promoted that the construction to be undertaken by the government should not be of the sort that would compete with, or hamper the operation of, private business. No one suggested that for the sake of relief, there should be paralleling of railroad tracks, one of them government owned. While that was not done it Is an exaggerated Illustration the government has promoted construction that has taken traffic away from the railroads by expanding every known artery of highways. At the rate the Tennessee Valley authority is moving, private enterprises of various kinds will be driven out of existence by a government agency. Then, the Public Works administration turned down a loan that was sought the other day by the city of Fort Worth, Texas, with which to build a municipal power plant. What has happened since, I do not know, but the reason for the first refusal was that the Fort Worth folks had not made rate schedules lower for their projected plant than were charged by private Interests. There are numerous examples available, but the import of each is the same. And they all give rise to the question : ought the government of the United States subsidize, directly or Indirectly, such developments, drive out private business aud then make up the difference from the general taxpayers of the country? From this vantage point, it looks to be decidedly questionable as a form of public works love to be the even In the guise of relief.
