After weeks of discussion, maneuvering and sparinif for vantage ground the actual fight over unreserved ratlfica ' tion of the league of nations arran gement as a purl of the peace treaty begun in the senate today.

OVER PIIIOSIDI'.XT'S V15TO. WASHINGTON, July, H. Believ ing that the dayiignt savings law is obnoxious lo a majority of toe labor ing people of the country, working a hardship on farming ranimunities and many other interests where la bor puts in all the available daylight anyway, under unanimous consent the house took up ai'uin the vetoed agricultural appropriation bill carry lug the rider tor repeal of the day light savings measure. It is hoped in the bouse to pass ho bill over the executive's veto. When the question was called the house failed to pass the agricultural bill with the daylight savings repeal rider over the president's veto The vote stood 247 to 135, lacking 23 altirmativo votes necessary to pksb the measure over Wilson's veto. This is considered final, and with the clay- light saving bill repeal as a dead issue, the agricultural bill will lie passed with the rider eliminated, and neither will an effort be marl to pass.the repeal as a separate bill. Agricultural district representative voted almost solidly for repeal of the measure, and there was no division along political lines. An attempt lo lorce a vote on repeal of the war time prohibition also failed in the house today On a point of order, raised by chairman Volstead, of the Judiciary committee, an amendment to the pending prohibition enforce ment hill, proposed by representative Isoe, of Missouri, Democrat, was ruled out of order. - wntiKH mors.

It 1h not enough that we merely decide to grow the so-called St. Valentine broccoli in this valley. Further than that, the best strains of this crop must be sel ected, decided upon na being of the superior type for market, and, if pos sible, later there should be a general production of this best type. "Compare, if you will, with this broccoli strain proposition, that of tho egg laying and non-egg laying strain of liens, the 200 egg type and the 80 egg type Poultr.wnon have In many cases sacrificed the breed name of their chickens for c-ug lay ing strains which are more profit able It Is equally true with the various strains or broccoli now on tho market "If all goes well with the test plants on t li e M el rose a rea , it -is homed that there will be a sufficient demonstration of typera which next spring can be observed by broccoli growers as a whole Hoy Bnnenbiirk. and C.

ORDERS LOOKED AFTER Tremendous llualntMg Concerns Pro pared to Fill Orders on a liennuk ably Short Notice. Interesting ri(fuiv tilvou Out. Sonio of tho great accomnpllah mentH of American business durlntt the war are Just bceinnins to creep to the surface now that the ban of censorship has been removed. Every industry devoted a great part of U time and energy to Hie manufacture of supplies needed not only by the United States but by the Allies, ami rov persons not actively engaged In tho work realize its extent. The preparation and handling of moat food products wus, of courBe. one of the grout necessary industries, und it was fortunate for the country that the packing Industry was al ready mobllizod for Borvlce long be fore the Lusitania was sunk. , , Tho problem of securing on ade qitute biidv of moat tor tho army and navy caused the government less worry than othor major problem. All thut was necessary for the govern ment to do was to determine the re quirements and need of theunuyand j navy, and notify tlie packers, and . they delivered the goods. The manner in which the packers met the emorgoncles which arose during the war Is well illustrated In, the case of Swift ft Company who in one week filled a government order for 32,000,000 pounds of meat and fat. This necessiated the dressing of 13,000 ciiltle and 200,000 hogs, and required 1,000 freight cars to trans port. Another instance is found in an order Wliich was received one Satur dny nfternoon at five o'clock for 2,000,000 iwunds of a special out ot dry suit meats. The war department wanted this shipment of 43 cars boxed and on tho way by the follow ing TuoRduy noon lesB that seventy hours dlstunt. 8wlft & Company had the last car loaded and rolling an hour before noon on Tuesday. ;In still another case the Govern ment could get no one to put up the fresh butter in tins for ovreBeas ship ment. Swift A Coinliiany accepted an order for 500,000 pounds on May 4, 111 1 8. It was necessary to equip three creameries with machinery and supplies, and to organize the-lielp tu do the work entirely new to them, but the llrst car was rolling eastward In 33 days and a mouth later the en tire order was completed. The tremendous total of 6C0, 000. 000 worth of sugplles was fur nlRhed by Swift & Company alone tu tl.n Amorlean and Allied rjovern monts during Um war. The peak, was reached In December, 1918, when the somIh furnished totaled $35,000,000 in this one month. MeatH nuturnlly formed the bulk of sales, but onnsldernble quantities of wool wore furnished the United Ktutes Government, while the AllieB puivhase.l large amounts of lard and lard products. Kven if there had been any Incli nation on the part of the .packers to "pi-ofltcor," this would have been out of the question under the rigid reeulRtlons enforced by the Food Administration. With meat prices olflrlally determined by the Govern ment and with profits limited to a detinilo percentage, possibility of un- rnir dealing was removed. The imeklng Industry required no redenit fliuinclal n-id, and additional raclllil.iH did not have to he con structed by the government -such, ns KhlnynrdH for the shlp-hutldors. und additional factory uults for mu nition manufacturers Over 8,600 eniiployes of Swift & Conipitny nnswored tlie call to the ilors and served In practically every branch of the army and navy. They nro returning rapidly to civilian lifo und the Coutoany has adopted the following broad policy with respect to the re-employnient of these men: Kvory returned soldier or sailor will he given his old position, or ono equally ns good, at a salary or wags equal to the amount ho was receiving when he left, or it the rate ot pay for his iKisltlon has been Increased In the meantime, at. the increased rate.
