Should his effort In this direction prove unfruit ful, however, it is his plan to make a fight in the senate. Lower Duties Urged The Wisconsin senator estlnrat. ed that the duties on the coarse wool products ranged from 26 per cent to 137 per cent. He made it plain that he was not opposing the committee duties on the fine grades of wool, either in the raw state or manufactured products. Before the senate met the fin ance committee majority agreed tentatively to a reduction of five per cent in the ad valorem duty on woolen cloths,- and other man ufacturers, including clothing. Whether these redactions are to be recommended to the' senate will be- considered further on Monday. Debate in the senate today was confined almost wholly to the 33 eentr a pound duty proposed on scoured wool, with Senator Walsh Democrat, Massachusetts, mak ing the principal attack and Chairman McCumber, and Sena tor Smoot of the finance com mittee, and Senators -Gooding of Idaho, chairman of the Republi can ' agricultural tariff bloc, and Bursum, Republican, New Mexi co, defending the committee "proposal.

At the ontsef Sena tor j McCumber told ; hew tb woolen manufacturers , t h a d brought In wool of low shrinkage which took a low rate, with a result that the producers received en actual protection of K7.S cents a pound, instead of 33 cents, as was: intended by the framers of the law. The manufacturers came fn for attack from Senator Jones. Dem ocrat, New Mexico, who charged that when the Payne-Aldrieh law was drafted they had "deliberate ly deceived" congress and the country as to the amount of com-j pensatory protection they., would j need on account of the raw wool duty. In this connection Sena tor Smoot said the committee this time had paid no attention to the testimony 'of manufacturers, re lying on an exhaustive report on the world wool industry made by the tariff commission at a cost. he said, of $250,000. Attacking the committee rate, BILLS Ringling, and Barnum and Bailey Shows Advance Heavy License Salem will aave a circus i genuine, all wool, more than yard "we coiossa conglomeration of mountainous montrosities and multitudinous marvels. It will be the ring-tailed peeler of all the circuses the Ringling Bros, and Barnum Bailey shows, all in one staggering, stupendous synchronism of sopoforie scenes Tne advance agent of the big show was in Salem Saturday, long enough- to pay their license fee, $110, into the city treasury, and Senator Walsh said that harrincjto make some other arrangements the "'Joker" in the emergency tar iff law, the duty proposed was the highest ever levied on raw wool. He asserted that it could be shown that the duty would cost manufacturing industry $76,060. 0000, which when paid by the consumer after pyramiding, would approximate $200,000,000. Senator Smoot argued lat this would not prove the ease, and undertook to refute the claims of manufacturers that the duty would result in a material in crease In the 'trice of clothing. He called attention that the pres ent duty was. 15 cents a pound, but Senator Walsh replied that the emergency tariff duty had not become effective, both because of for the coming of the 110 cars oi marvels. Tney actually do travel with 110 ears four trains, the animal train, the cook train, the two trains of performers. They have 40 elephants, and enough people to eat. the average town alive when the boss canvas man hollers, "Hey, Rube!"

SCOTTS MILLS NEWS statement issued immediately af ter his arrest. "He must seek its repeal in the legislature or its annulment in court. The Kansas legislature is not in session. My only other course is to seek the annulment of the order which seems to me to restrict freedom of utterance. The risk is great. but the action quicker. If, in seeking the annulment of fny order or law, the' protesting citi zens obey the order or law while the case is pending, no man can question his m6tive.

Jasi how it happens, is not provable. Maybe the boys are- smarter, an4 can go to school earlier; maybe they are duller, and have to: go earlier. Maybe there are more f 'em; maybe they are stouter, phy sically, and can traipse through the winter rains and muds with more safety, maybe they ain't worth as much, and they can be risked where the dear girls are saved at home. Maybe the war is actually coming; maybe these lit tle folks are showing the mental effects at the beginning of the World War, eight years ago, when by pre-natal legend the big crop of boy babies should start. And maybe it is like any other thing that just Is, without " other rea son. The school figures for the sec ond year, however, are yet more one-sided; for while 530 boys were registered in the schools of the county, only 404 girls were in attendance. One might figure this in with the third year, when there were 512 boys and 509 girls and argue that the' girls, here found in about their normal pro portion of half-and-half, had been able to skip the first two grades and make an even running start on the third grade. Maybe tb boys had to stay at home more and do the chores, while the girU sauntered off to school. Strange ly, nowever, ror the fourth year, the boys were largely in the pro- ponder ance, 576 to 454, or 27 per cent more boys than girls. This Is the greatest variation in the sexes, in any of the four early years. The school records, that give no explanation of this unusual dis crepancy in the numbers of boys and girls, seem to show that the girls make rather the better grades. The introduction of the Smith Hughes and "commercial courses in several of the schools and the adoption of the junior high school system ia Salem- that furnishes so important a part of the Marion county school census, account for the holding of a far larger proportion of boys no to the graduation point than used to be the case. But it does not touch the problem of so many more boys in the primary grades- nor where they are going to find sweethearts and wives when everybody grows up.

They vote that hereafter aH butter records shall be expressed in terms of bulterfat, and not as so many pounds of 'butter." "Butter" is an extremely yarl able term. As bufter is usually sold, It con-tains only about 80 per cent of actual fat, the other 20 per cent being moisture, of plain water. An extremely care ful buttermaker might use even less than 80 per cent of pure fat; he would make a 1000-pound but terfat cow into a 1250-pound "butter" cow without turning a hir. The revised form of checking will give every caw exactly the Fame scientific foundation Tot her record, and the Oregon Holstein breeders believe it will be" a dis tinct step ia adranee. Among theepeakers at , the Corvallis convention were Frank Conncll of ' ItUlsboro, president, and O. L. Dunlap, secretary of the Oregon association; and Itoy C. Jones. H. N. Goleman and O. Li.
