1MMI1IM1IIM &Ps43i HARPEL HEADS CREAMERY MEN yice-President Succeeds Nickerson McQuire Re-elected Manager Of Marketing Agency By Faim Biueau ,News Service. Co-operative creameries in this dis trict which are members of the Min nesota Co-operative Creameries asso ciation, Inc., have a new president at the head of their state marketing and service agency. William Harpel, of Glencoe, vice president of the association, was elec ted to succeed H. B. Nickerson of Elk River. Mr. Nickerson resigned at a meeting of the board of directors last week. Henry Arens, of Jordan, was elected to succeed Mr. Harpel as first vice president. The new president of the creamer ies association is manager of the co operative creamery at Glencoe, Minn., the largest co-operative creamery handling sweet cream butter in the United States. It also handles prob ably the largest volume of business done by any co-operative creamery in the co-operative marketing of eggs. A. J. McGuiie, who has served the Minnesota Co-operative Creameries as sociation as organization manager since its establishment more than a year Ago, was re-elected as general manager of the organization. The board of directors also made arrangements for opening a traffic de partment in conjunction with the new eastern office of the association on the !New York market. "At least 50 carloads of Minnesota co-operative creamery butter are mov ing to the eastern market this week xinder the consolidated shipping plans of the state association," Mr. McGuire said today. "The association plans to establish its own traffic department, so that the patrons of Minnesota's co operative creameries can rely on their own representative to see that freight charges are just, that shipments are properly inspected, and that the farm ers' interests are protected in all mat ters of losses and ovei charges." Co-operative creamery products will consigned by members of the as sociation to the association's own office on the New York market, instead of to private firms. The traffic depart ment will then distribute the ship ments to the firms selected by the co-operative creameries themselves. The state association has just moved into its new headquaiters in St. Paul. Since establishment of the association, it has had temporary offices in the state headquarters of the Minnesota Faim Biueau federation.

Suc culent feed in the form of lettuce, sprouted oats, tender wild grass or rape should be kept in the chicks daily ration. It is very important that chicks get all the exercise possible to keep in good physical condition. Exercise can be furnished by feeding the scratch feed in a thin layer of chaff, also by letting the chicks have access to free range. Sour milk fed daily in foun tains will keep the chicks healthy and promote rapid growth. Chicks should be watched for the appearance of body or head lice. If lice appear, they can be eradicated by applying a pinch of lard or vase line on the head, neck, under the_ wings and around the vent. Never" let chicks out in wet grass or rains, as they are apt to get chilled and con tract a cold, thus lowering their vitali ty and stunting growth.

The reductions took effect in January. They established rates on corn and coarse grain 10 per cent lower than the new rates on wheat. Now the railroads have asked the commission to abolish this differential between wheat and coarse grain in the territory west of the Mississippi river jyid east of El Paso and Den ver. The coarse grain differential in volves approximately $6,000,000 and it is trying to save the shippers of hay and grain. It is the position of the American Farm Bureau Federation that rates on coarse gram were generally lower than on wheat throughout this terri tory prior to federal control and that the commission's decision restored the old lelatoinship. _,, St. PaulAn organized fight will be made against any mciease in freight rates on coarse grain, according to officials of the Minnesota Farm Biu reau federation. J. F. Reed, piesj dent of the iederation, has taken steps to line up the state Faim Bureau in the corn producing territory to oppose the abolition of the rate differential. He is working with C. W. Hunt, pi ev ident of the Iowa Faim Buieau feder ation,'and head of the Midwest Farm Bureau conference, to prepare evi dence to resist the inciease.
