Accurate grading is impossible unless the belt of the grader 
is of proper design and construction. 
The Boggs belt-\rithin-a-belt is the only belt that'will grade" 
up to four sizes accurately and without injuring or bruising the 
potatoes. It permits either round or long potatoes to be sorted 
and graded into No. 1 and No. 2 sizes, with less than 3% vari¬ 
ation in size from Government grades. No other grader can 
use this belt, as we hold basic patents thereon. 
The Boggs belt has an opening as near round as it is possible 
to get and still cover the whole surface of belt. With a square 
or diamond shaped opening, a large potato will drop through 
into the No. 2’s if placed diagonally; or if placed sidewise of the open¬ 
ing/ a much smaller potato will ride over into the No. l’s. This is not 
possible with the Boggs belt. No matter how potatoes strike 
they will be graded accurately.

A GREAT three-cornered fight has de- | 
veloped in the House of Representa- | 
tives on the Mellon Tax Plan. The regu¬ 
lar Republicans are for the Mellon Plan. 
The Insurgent Republicans are for much 
higher surtaxes than the Mellon Plan 
proposes. They claim that the Mellon 
Plan favors the rich. The Democrats 
stand solidly for another plan which in 
the main proposes continued high sur¬ 
taxes on rich men’s incomes. On Febru¬ 
ary 19th, the Insurgent Republicans 
united with the Democrats in the House 
of Representatives and passed the Garner 
Tax Cut. This Garner Plan, among other 
things, provides for a forty-four per cent, 
surtax maximum. 
Oil Still Boils in the Washington 
Scandals 
Secretary Denby of the Navy Depart¬ 
ment has resigned from the Cabinet and 
h is resignation has been accepted by 
President Coolidge. No one believes that 
Secretary Denby was actually guilty of 
any wrong doing, but he is bitterly criti¬ 
cized for having been neglectful in not 
passing on the leases which were wrong¬ 
fully given to the oil companies. At¬ 
torney General Daugherty is criticized 
for the same reason. He has not resigned 
from the Cabinet at this writing, but 
there is more or less expectation that he 
will. 
ALBANY NEWS 
The Smith Income Tax Bill passed the 
New York State Senate on February 19th, 
by 38-13. Twelve Republicans voted 
with the Democrats. This provides for a 
25 per cent, cut in the 1923 personal 
income tax. Attempts were made to 
pass amendments to this bill. One of 
these proposed a 25 per cent, return to 
localities as an indirect method of reduc¬ 
ing the general tax. Had this passed it 
would have brought some little relief to 
farmers. This bill will soon be up for 
vote in the Assembly. As long as 
farmers submit they will carry the 
greatest share of the tax burden.

Because it lasts many years 
longer —costs less per year — 
keeps silage better —than any 
ordinary stave silo. Proved by 
experience wherever used. 
And there’s a good, sound reason- — 
Craine scientific 3-wall construction 
Inside the upright staves. Over this, 
the waterproof, frost-stopping Silafelt. 
Then the continuous Crainelox Spiral 
Hooping that tightly binds the whole

Special emergency appropriation of 
$35,000 must be made this year by the 
New Jersey Legislature to stamp out 
tuberculosis in dairy herds or New Jersey 
taxpayers will lose $22,000 which the 
Government would expend within the 
State for the same purpose. The State 
funds now remaining from the present 
appropriation are not sufficient to conduct 
the work on a large enough scale to assure 
adequate protection in all sections of the 
State against infected milk, according to 
the findings of the New Jersey Federation 
of County Boards of Agriculture, which 
studied the situation recently. 
An appropriation bill now pending in 
the Legislature would provide $35,000 
for the appraisement and indemnification 
for cattle found to be affected with 
bovine tuberculosis. The measure went 
into the Assembly with the backing of the 
Newark Board of Health and the New 
Jersey Federation of County Boards of 
Agriculture, which represents the organ¬ 
ized milk producers in the northern and 
central New Jersey, identified with the 
Farm Bureau in this State. 
Penetrates 
Softens 
Restores 
For healing any external hurt on 
your cows, or other livestock, rely on 
Bag Balm. This wonderful healing, 
penetrating ointment protects the 
wound, restores circulation and pro¬ 
motes quick healing of any cut, scratch, 
bruise or inflammation. 
Bag Balm is especially valuable in 
treating any injury to the udder or teats. 
The delicate cells of this organ are very 
easily injured and unless quickly and 
properly cared for do not heal in their 
original structure. Bag Balm restores 
and rebuilds the tissues so that there 
will be no interference with normal 
milk flow. 
Soft, silky udders have a lot to do with full 
milk yield—as well as easy milking. Keep 
Bag Balm on hand for any healing emer¬ 
gency. Very useful in cases of Caked Bag, 
Bunches, Cow Pox.

Hunterdon County— Here along the 
Delaware River the winter has been 
unusually mild except with a few cold 
snaps. We have had little or no snow. 
Farmers with good flocks of chickens are 
selling their eggs to the hatcheries at a 
premium from 8 to 12c a dozen above the 
Philadelphia market price, according to 
the breed of birds that they have. Many 
are cutting wood and hauling manure, 
getting ready for spring work. Taxes 
have not been reduced as yet and hired 
help remains scarce and high.— Mrs.
