Among the Farmers 
Committee Studies TB Work—News from Albany 
T he New York State Farm Bureau 
Federation recently appointed a 
committee composed of H. E. Babcock, 
E. R. Zimmer, M, E. Buckley and L. A. 
Toan to make a thorough study of the 
tuberculosis eradication work that is 
being done in New York State, and to 
make recommendatiohs as to what the 
State policy covering this work should 
be. J, Coryell is secretary of the com¬ 
mittee. At its first meeting the follow¬ 
ing resolution was passed: 
Whereas, The failure of the State 
of New York to provide for the prompt 
payment of indemnities on condemned 
cattle is requiring the expenditure by 
the State of a large amount of money 
for interest, and is causing financial 
embarrassment to cattle owners; there¬ 
fore; be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of 
this committee that all appropriations 
should be made by the Legislature of 
the State of New York to cover indemi- 
ties incurred to date; and further be it 
Resolved, That it is our opinion that 
an adequate appropriation should be 
made to finance future work. 
FARM NEWS FROM ALBANY 
Bills have been introduced in the 
Legislature to require an examination 
for licensing horse-shoeing. The exam¬ 
ination fee and license would cost $5. 
To be eligible for this examination, one 
would have to be an apprentice in the 
trade for three years.

Assemblyman Kahon has introduced 
a bill which would require every auto 
owner to have an automatic governor, 
approved by the State Tax Commis¬ 
sion, on his car which would prevent a 
speed of more than 30 miles an hour. 
* ♦ 
The Lockwood House bills are caus¬ 
ing much discussion. ^ They are very 
sweeping and broad in their powers 
regarding labor unions and business in 
general. If passed, they would create 
a trade commission to regulate busi¬ 
ness, prohibiting stock and mutual 
companies from taking^ compensation, 
and provide for prevention of fraud in 
the distribution of securities. They 
also provide for licensing stock and 
bond dealers, limiting investments of 
fire insurance companies, and provide 
that these companies dispose of certain 
securities which they now hold. Coop¬ 
erative leaders of the State are giving 
considerable attention to certain fea¬ 
tures of the Lockwood bills which 
would, in their opinion, if passed, re¬ 
strict the work of farmers’ organi¬ 
zations.

A bill before the Legislature would 
restore the printing of the ^ Session 
Laws in county papers. A previous law 
providing for such printing was re¬

Assemblyman C. P. Miller introduced 
a resolution to investigate the wages, 
hours and working conditions of women 
and children, committee to submit re¬ 
port to succeeding session. An investi¬ 
gation of this kind seemed necessary 
after the apparent division among the 
women themselves as to what they 
would recommend at this time for their 
own welfare.

Chairman McGinnies of the Assem¬ 
bly Ways and Means Committee intro¬ 
duced in the Legislature to-day a bill 
appropriating $150,000 for the use of 
the Conservation Commission in com¬ 
bating the gypsy moth. It was ex¬ 
plained that the insect pest had worked 
■ much harm in New England, and that 
it was desirable to prevent it getting a 
foothold in New York. 
LEAGUE CANCELLATIONS TOTAL 
10,768 
The Dairymen’s League Co-Operative 
Association repoils a total cancella¬ 
tion of 10,768 contracts. Of this num¬ 
ber of producers who served notice of 
withdrawal on their Association, 5,000 
were selling milk in Classes 1 and 2, 
and 4,000 in Classes 3 and 4. The bal¬ 
ance were producers whose contracts 
with their association were inactive be¬ 
cause they were no longer _ producing 
or lived in localities where it was im¬ 
possible for the league to pool their 
milk. 
The organization reports that of the 
5,000 producers in Classes 1 and 2 who 
withdrew, there were a considerable 
number who had already violated their 
contracts and were selling to other deal¬ 
ers. Except in a few places the asso¬ 
ciation’s own plants were not effected 
much by the cancellations. There were 
very few withdrawals from the more 
important plants owned by the organi¬ 
zation. 
The cancellation was especially large 
in the so-called “cheese territory.” The 
total cancellation in Lewis and Jeffer¬ 
son, where there are many cheese fac¬ 
tories, were 1,096 and there was 957 
withdrawals in St. Lawrence County. 
A Doctor of the Old School 
{Continued from "page 239) 
of night. I will wash and dress the 
baby, which he did with all tenderness, 
then cared for the mother, made her 
comfortable, and went his way. 
And there was -the poor Polish 
woman who came running begging 
him: “Queeck, queeck, my baby die!” 
When Dr. Brown got there he found 
the child in a bad way indeed, having 
fallen and cut himself about the head 
so badly he needed the care of a sur¬ 
geon; so, hurrying the child with its 
father and mother into a car, Dr. Brown 
took them to the hospital. On arriving 
he called the Polish doctor, and they 
attended to the baby, but the child had 
lost so much blood they saw he was not 
going to come out from under the anes¬ 
thetic. The Polish doctor said: “Well, 
it’s no use; only transfusion will save 
him, and you can’t get any blood.” “I 
can’t!” said Dr. Brown. “You see.” 
And, going to the room where tlte 
father and mother sat, he explained 
quickly to them and said: “Unless you 
give some of your blood at once to your 
child, he will die.” 
Although she understood but little 
English, the Polish mother rose to her 
feet and with the mother love of all 
true mothers shining in her eyes, said: 
“I go, I give.” What a text for a ser¬ 
mon! What a sermon in itself! She 
may have thought it was her life they 
wanted. She lay beside her boy and 
gave him of her life blood. After a 
short time color began to conie back 
into the child’s face; then his eyes 
opened and he said: “Mum, mum!” 
That was reward enough for Dr. Brown. 
I know of more doctors like Dr. 
Brown, but fail to see younger doctors 
coming on to take their places, and 
so for what these old country doctors 
have done and are doing yet for us 
country folks, I wi’ite this and say 
with George Turner: 
“If with pleasure you are viewing any 
work a man is doing, 
If you like or if you love him, tell 
him now; 
Don’t withhold your approbation til 
the parson makes oration 
As he lies with snowy lilies o’er his 
brow; 
For, no matter how you shout' it, he 
won’t really care about it; 
He won’t know how many teardrops 
you have shed; 
If you think some praise is due him, 
now’s the time to slip it to him, 
For he cannot read his tombstone 
when he’s dead. 
“More than fame and more than money 
is the commend kind and sunny. 
And the hearty, warm approval of a 
friend; 
For it gives to life a savor, and it 
makes you stronger, braver, 
And it gives you heart and spirit to 
the end. 
If he earns your praise, bestow it; 
If you like him, let him know it; 
Let the words of true encouragement 
be said; 
Do not wait ’till life is over and he’s 
underneath the clover, _ 
For he cannot read his tombstone 
when he’s dead.”
