Uncle Sam to Sell Milk. 
The Department of Agriculture 
will soon be operating a 500-acre 
dairy farm at Beltsville, near Wash- 
ington. Crops are already in on 400 
acres and bids were opened June 21 
for the construction of concrete 
stables. The milk will be sold in 
Washington, the farm will be made 
self-supporting, and the land, which 
is rather poor, will be brought to a 
high state of fertility.

Dr. A. K. Fisher, chief of the eco- 
nomie division of the Biological Sur- 
vey of the Department of Agricul- 
ture, holds that the house eat and 
the English sparrow have no place 
in the economy of nature and ought 
to be exterminated. The sparrow 
drives away useful birds, and cats, 
the professor says, will not catch 
rats or mice except in rare instances, 
EDITORIAL COMMENT 
In just a month from today the 
first ground will be broken for an ex- 
position to be held in celebration of 
the completion and opening of the 
Panama Canal, and President Taft 
will press a button which will close 
an electric circuit in San Diego, Cal., 
and “break out” a great flag —the 
President’s own flag, especially con- 
structed of unusually large size for 
this particular event—right over the 
spot where the ceremonies are to take 
place. The ceremonies will last four 
days and will be of unique splendor. 
The President very cheerfully prom- 
ised Director General D. C. Collier 
that he would do this, for, he said, 
he took an unusual interest in the 
San Diego Exposition because it will 
exploit the achievements of Uncle 
Sam in reclamation, irrigation, for- 
estation and conservation, and it also 
aims to bring together the Latin- 
American republics and unite them in 
an illustration of what has been done 
in the development of the new world. 
While not outlined on such a large 
scale as the Panama-Pacific Exposi- 
tion to be held coincidently in San 
Francisco, the San Diego Exposition, 
with $2,500,000 already available, has 
a definite plan and idea, and promises 
to be an artistic, financial and indus- 
trial triumph. 
It isn’t so common to hear people 
decry farming as an occupation as it 
used to be. Young men are flocking 
to the agricultural schools and col- 
leges and many of them are graduat- 
ing into professorships, or into posi- 
tions as experts with the government. 
One of the latter has just returned 
to Washington after spending two 
months in Spain and Sicily investi- 
gating lemon growing. He is G. 
Harold Powell, whose work for the 
Department of Agriculture in the in- 
vestigation: of causes of fruit decay 
in cold storage and in transit attracte! 
such wide attention. The citrus fruit 
growers of California held his talents 
in such esteem that they tried to get 
him to go out there. When they got 
up to $10,000 a year, he succumbed, 
and he is now secretary and manager 
of the Citrus Protective League of 
California, a model business organiza- 
tion of agriculturists which has been 
fighting for a tariff on lemons that 
will permit the industry to survive. 
Having secured that tariff, the or- 
ganization is now combating the or- 
ganized campaign of the Sicilian im- 
porters to have it reduced.
