Congress Helps Farming Interests and Other Notes
The agricultural appropriation bill reported to the Senate carries 11 642 146 dollars, up 133 340 from the House version, with 10 000 dollars set aside to cooperate with the department of agriculture and reclamation service for crop feasibility on lands under reclamation. Another 10 000 would fund Siberian forage plant imports for the northern prairies, and 10 000 enables immediate use for cotton boll weevil control. An amendment fixes grain grading standards to become official. In Burlington New Jersey local churches seek to ban merry widow hats during services as ushers struggle to seat congregants. Some pews shrink from six to four seats when large hats are worn. Churches may require women to check prominent hats at the cloak room.
