Gentlemen's Agreement Defeated in
Senate, 76 to 2.
Washington, D. C The senate an
swered Ambassador Hanlhura's pro
test against Japanese exclusion legis
lation Monday by voting, 76 to 2,
against recognition of the "gentle
men's agreement" with Japan op the
Immigration question.
This action Is preliminary to adop
tion by tho senate by an overwhelm
ing majority of the house Japanese
exclusion provision.
Whatever tho result would have
been without the Incident of tho am
bassador's letter, that communication
served to change the votes of a num
ber of administration leaders, Includ
ing Senator Lodge of Massachusetts,
chairman of the foreign relations com
mittee. .
Tho republican lender Informed the
senate In open session that he regard
ed the Hanlhara letter as a "veiled
threat" and declared that In the face
of that threat ho could not support the
immigration committee's proposal lo
recognize by law tho "gentlemen's
agreement."
A number of other senators took
the same view and only one voice,
that of Senator Sterling, republican,
South Dakota, was raiBed in defense
ot tho ambassador's action. Senator
Colt, chairman of tho Immigration
committee, Joined Senator Sterling in
the vole, but did not speak.
Senators generally threw off the
usual restraints In dealing with In
ternational questions. They were blunt
mil outspoken In their declaration that
in view of tho "grave consequences"
warning In the ambassador's letter,
there was nothing for them to do but
to mako It clear for onco and for all
that Immigration Is a domestic ques
tion in the handling of which no Inde
pendent power could have Its sover
eignty questioned.
While tho debate proceeded, Secre
tary Hughes, who transmitted Mr.
Hanlhnra's letter to tho house and
sennto Immigration committees Inst
week, twlco conferred with President
Coolldge, He declined to say what
tho nature of tho conversations had
been and no Information was forthcom

VOTED BY HOUSE
Johnson Immigration Measure
Is Passed.
DISCUSSION IS BRIEF
No Effort Made to Eliminate Opposed
Clause-Percentage Based on
1890 Census.
Washington, D. C The Johnson im
migration bill, carrying a Japanese
exclusion provision against which the
Japanese government has protested
vigorously, was passed Saturday by
tho house, 322 to 71.
No effort was made to eliminate
tho Jupaneso soctlon, which provoked
only brief and perfunctory discussion.
There was nothing to indicate that
any of tho opposition votes wore
directed nt the Asiatic policy contain
ed in tho bill, but rather against the
provision fixing the 1890 census as
tho basis of the 2 per cent quota,
which was adopted.
The existing law, which expires on
next June 30, fixed the quota at 3 per
cent on the 1910 census and had no
provisions relating to Japanese Immi
gration which for years has boon regu
lated by the "gentlemen's agreement"
with Japan. Secretary Hughes hag
urged that the American government
continue to rucognlze this agreement
and the Japanese placed on the same
quota basis as the nationals of other
countries.
Representative Johnson of Washing
ton, chairman of the bouse immigra
tion committee, announced that when
the time cornea for the house and sen
ate to reconcile their differences on
Immigration legislation the managers
on tho part of the house will Insist to
tho end on tho retention ot the Jap
anese exclusion provision.
Ambassador Hanlharu's letter to
Secretary Hughes, which was trans
mitted to congress, protesting aginst
any exclusion feature, was not men
tioned in house debate on the bill.
When this proposal Is reached In the
senate, however, Senator Johnson, re-i
publican, California, and other sena
tors from the Pacific coast plan to
tuko formal cognizance of the letter
nnd redouble their efforts to have an
exclusion feature written into law.
There was no formal vote in the
house, on the exclusion features, as
tho failuro ot any member to offer
an amendment resulted In automatic
approval w hile tho bill was being read
for amendment. Only ono address re
garding this feature was delivered,
that being by Representative Ilurtou
of Ohio, a republican member ot the
foreign affulra committee. Ho dis
cussed tho provision for five minutes,
emphasizing what he regarded as the
luadvisablllty ot superceding the
"gentlemen's agreement" by legisla
tive enactment..
Farm Relief Bills Put up to Senate.
Washington, I). C The McNary
llaugeu and Norrls-Slnchilr bills,
designed for the relief of agricultural
districts, were reported favorably Sat
urday by the somite agriculture com
mittee. Several minor amendments
were attached to the McNnry-Haugen
bill, but the Norris Sinclair measure
was reported without change.
Action on the McNary lluugen bill
Is expected to bo tuken by the house
before Its consideration in tho senate
on account of Its tariff provisions,
which are required to originate In the
house. The house agricultural com
mlttee Is now engaged In redrafting
passages of the bill.
The tariff features of tho McNary
lluugen bill brought a communica
tion from the tariff commission to the
house ways and means committee, in
which the committee contended if
domestic prices of agricultural staples
are raised substantially above world
prices as a result ot such legislation,
the application by foreign nations of
unti dumping law might prevent the
sale In those countries ot surplus
American farm products. Tho commis
sion further said that tho foreign coun
tries might also claim that the policy
is Inconsistent with the tariff act ot
1922.
Boys Would b Sporty.
Washington, D. C "Enormous num
bers ot young people in Washington
are fascinated by the idea of drinking
for the purpose ot being a good sport."
Sergeant lihoda Milliken of the w
men's bureau of the police department
told the women's national committee
for law enforcement here Sunday.
She added that even In high schools
boys had been found to bo telling
liquor not only to their boy friends,
but to girl classmates.
MILK SUBSTITUTE
IS EASILY MIXED
Dairy experts at the United States
Department of Agriculture experi
mental farm at Beltsvllle, Md., have
worked out a calf meal milk substi
tute which is practical, and easily
mixed and which contains a greater
proportion of home-grown feeds than
is used In most calf meals.
The department's recommended ra
tion Is as follows: Take 50 parts fine
ly ground corn, 13 parts linseed oil
meal, IS parts finely ground rolled oats,
10 parts dried blood Hour, 10 parts
skimmed milk powder, one-half part
salt Stir up with warm mixture at
the rate of one pound of the i ieul mix
ture to about six pounds of wuter. In
crease gradually us the "whole milk la
decreased, until at the time the calf
Is DO days old It should be getting only
the gruel. At this time 14 to 2
pounds of the meal mixed with water
will constitute a day's feed. The total
quantity of milk used Is about 300
pounds; If less Is fed the calves are
likely to be unthrifty.
The time at which calves can be put
on milk substitutes alone, say depart
ment dairymen, depends upon the
same factors os In tho use of sepa
rated milk, nnmely, the breed, develop
ment, nnd vigor of the calves, etc. It
Is hardly safe, as a rale, even with the
most vigorous ones, to attempt to put
them on milk substitutes alone within
one month after birth ; ond with calves
below normal in vigor some milk for
two months or more may be necessary
to raise them.
The department suggests, as a guide
for feeding the above substitute to
large, vigorous calves, the following
schedule: First 10 days, 10 pounds of
whole milk dully; second 10 days, 8
pounds of milk and 0.4 pound of meal
(mixed up in 0 times its weight of
warm water) ; third 10 days, 6 pounds
milk and 0.3 pound meal; fourth 10
days, 4 pounds milk and 1.2 pounds
meul ; fifth 10 days, 2 pounds milk and
1.6 pounds meal; after 50 days, 2
pounds meal and no milk. Smaller
and less vigorous calves should be
fed somewbut less, and the milk feed
ing should be continued a little longer.
In any event, a totnl of 300 pounds of
milk should be sufficient. Grain and
roughage should be fed with milk sub
stitutes the suuie as with separated
milk.
Whole milk Is the best food for a
calf; skim milk ranks second. Calves
fed the substitute as stated above
have been subject to no more diges
tive troubles than the skim milk fed
calves and the gains In weight have
not been mnterlully less.
Dairy Calf Is Subject
to Digestive Disorders
It ll best to let the calves stay with
their mothers for two or three days
after birth. Then they should be
taught to drink from a bucket. Care
should be taken to see that the pall
Is clean for, as every farmer knows,
calves are subject to digestive disor
ders. The calf should get from 6 to 12
pounds of whole milk dally for the
first three weeks and then may be
gradually switched over to skim milk
and a little gruln. Most feeders find
It best to give the calves their grain
Immediately after they have finished
drinking their milk. A good concen
trate allowance will contain muscle
and bone-building nutrients and will
contain some fat to replace a part of
that abstracted from the milk.
Here are three rations recom
mended :
1. Corn. 3 parts; brnn, 3 parti;
outs, 3 parts; oil meal, 1 part.
2, Corn, S parts; oats or bran, 3
parts; oil meal, 1 part
S. Outs, 3 parts; bran, 1 part; oil
meal, 1 part.
The calf should be kept hungry,
rather than overfed. Overfeeding
causes digestive troubles.
Ringworm on Calves Is
Very Common in Spring
Itlngwonn or brun Itch Is very com
mon among calves In the winter and
spring months. It Is a skin disease
and easily distinguished by the bare
and crusted upots It causes. These are
while or yellowish In color, first ap
pearing un the hesd snd neck and mov
ing back over the forerunners. If no
treatment Is used It euuses an Irrita
tion or Itching and spreads by contact
with other calves.
It Is caused by a fungus or vegetable
parasite which Is under these crusts oi
scabs. In order to get the seat ot the
trouble the scabs must be washed of!
with hot water and soap and the speti
painted over with tincture of Iodine
llepeat this treatment every two oi
three days as long as necessary. I
Difficulty With Hubam !
It may be said that the culture ot
