STATE BANKERS APPROVE
STATE COLLEGE METHODS
Continued agricultural success in
Centre county and all Pennsylvania
rests largely upon farmer cooperation
with county farm agents and the
agricultural extension service of the
Pennsylvania State College, accord-
ing to N. E. Robb, treasurer of the
Bellefonte Trust company, and H. L.
Ebright, cashier of the First Nation-
al bank of Centre Hall, who spent
the past week-end at State College
attending the annual summer meet-
ing of the agricultural committee of
the Pennsylvania Bankers’ Associa-
tion and the committee’s key bank-
ers from every county in the State.
For three days Mr. Robb enjoyed
the atmosphere of college research
and extension activities and declares
that he was greatly impressed with
the service that the College is render-
ing the people of the State in the field
of industry as well as agriculture.
“We could not help but realize the
economic value of agricultural re-
search and the well-organized exten-
sion service of the College which
takes the new discoveries right to the
farmers,” he said. “We found at
this meeting that the College is do-
ing excellent work. It is of such
calibre that bankers therg agreed
that by continuing to urge farmers
to take advantage of the State Col-
lege extension service they can in-
sure a prosperous agriculture for
any community. In other words,
farmers may be prosperous in pro-
portion to the cooperation they seek
from the county agent who repre-
sents the extension service.”
Although the visiting bankers saw
but a fraction of the college research
work and heard only a few phases
of the agricultural extension pro-
gram that serves 65 counties, they
saw and heard enough to convince
them that the banker-farmer co-ope-
ration as practiced upon recommenda.
tion of the State association’s agri-
cultural committee is well arranged
and is bringing results. “It is the
aim of the banker committee to urge
banks to encourage farmers to fol-
low modern methods,” Mr. Robb said,
“and it is this type of farmer who
gets encouragement when he calls
upon the bank.” During the past
year over 500 Pennsylvania banks
cooperated in over 35 different kinds |
of farm projects, most of them with
the assistance of college extension’
representatives.
In making their tour of the agri-
cultural school and experiment sta-
tion, the bankers heard of forestry
problems for farmers, how scientists
search for vitamins, proper feeding
of “dairy cows, how poultry is raised
in confinement from hatching time
to maturity, experiments in control
of insect enemies, ‘hothouse lamb
production, importance of organic
matter in orchard soils, potato pro-
duction employing only mechanical
power, and investigations in the con-
trol of potato diseases.
With this fund of research infor-
mation they then learned from exten-
sion specialists how they take this
information direct to the farmer and
put it into actual practice. College
men and women explained farm ac-
counts, boy and girl club work, and
the application of vitamin infornia-
tion in human foods. It was just
like going to college for an intensive
short course.
W. 8S. McKay, president of the
First National bank, of Greenville,
chairman of the bankers’ agricultur-
al committee, declared at the confer-
ence that State College has a great
future and that the interests of the
State of Pennsylvania will be mater-
ially advanced by the growth of the
institution. Walter W. Wilson, of the
First Milton National bank, vice-
president of the State Bankers’ As-
sociation, complimented the commit-
tee on its work. C. F. Zimmerman,
president of First National bank of
Huntingdon, secretary of the associa-
tion, told of the committee’s activi-
ties in the past seven years, including
five tours to agricultural sections and
two conferences at the College.
College speakers included E. 8S.
Bayard, of Pittsburgh, a member
of the board of trustees; A. O. Moore,
executive secretary to president
Ralph D. Hetzel, and E. K. Hibsh-
man, assistant to the president, who
was in charge of the program and
gave an interesting history of Penn-
sylvania agriculture.
STATE PRISONS ARE
NOT OVERCROWDED.
In a statement made at Harris-
burg, last week, Mrs. E. S. H. Mc-
Cauley, head of the State Welfare
Department. avers that State prisons
are not overcrowded. After giving
figures on the eastern and western
penitentiaries she stated that on July
1st the Rockview farm prison had a
population of 817 in housing facilities
of one cell block with 500 cells each,
large enough to accommodate two in-
mates. There is also a psychopathic
ward at Rockview which can accom-
modate forty inmates.
The Welfare Department does not
approve the policy of lodging two in-
mates in a cell, but at Rockview cir-
cumstances are so nearly normal with
the work furnished on the farm, in
the truck garden, the cannery, the
forest tree nursery and the construc-
tion activities, that the men are to-
gether at hight only, and not lodged
in the cells for long idle periods.

MANY POTATO GROWERS
HELP DEDICATE HOSPITAL.
Pennsylvania’s first potato exposi-
tion drew more than six thousand
visitors to the Pennsylvania State
College last week. The event was
sponsored by the Pennsylvania Po-
tato Growers’ Association, and ran
from Monday until Thursday.
Dedication of the college hospital,
built with funds raised by potato
growers of the State, occurred Mon-
day evening. Speakers of the occa-
sion were: Dr. R. D. Hetzel, presi-
dent of the college; A. L. Hacker,
county agent of Lehigh county; Dr.
J. P. Ritenour, director of the col-
lege health service; Dr. E. L. Nixon,
research plant pathologist of the
agricultural experiment station, and
Martin S. McAndrews, Penn State
athletic star from Scranton.
Three programs were run simul-
taneously each forenoon. On the pro-
duction program there appeared Dr.
W. J. Spillman, of the United States
Department of Agriculture; K.
W. Lauer, of the State Bureau of
Plant Industry; Professor J. B. R.
Dickey, E. L. Nixon, J. S. Cobb, and
L. T. Denniston, of the college agri-
cultural staff. Marketing talks were
given by George A. Stuart, director
of the Pennsylvania Bureau of Mar-
kets, Harrisburg; C. H. Lehmann,
Pittsburgh; H. A. Baum, New York
City; A. R. Black, Chicago, and W.
T. Doyle, Chicago. Speakers on the
consumption program were R. Bruce
Dunlap, agriculturist, Pennsylvania
Department of Welfare, Harrisburg,
and Miss Ethel Jefferds, extension
nutrition specialist of the college.
Dr. C. G. Jordan, secretary of the
Pennsylvania Department of Agri-
culture, spoke at the formal opening
of exhibits and demonstrations Tues-
day afternoon. More than one hun-
dred exhibits of potato machinery,
lime, insecticides, fungicides, fertil-
izers, insects diseases, potato soils,
varieties, conveyors, loaders, picking
tables, packages, bags, grades,
storages, processed potatoes and po-
tato by-products. Equipment for the
preparation of potatoes for table use,
including peelers, slicers, cubers,
mashers, mixers, and deep fat fryers
were featured. Demonstrations were
made of all types of field operations,
grading, packing, inspecting, and the
preparation of potatoes for the table.
A business meeting of the potato
growers’ association was held Tues-
day evening, followed by an enter-
tainment program under the direc-
tion of Professor W. R. Gordon, ex-
tension rural sociologist of the col-
lege. Wednesday evening Strickland
Gillilan, nationally famous hu-
morist, lectured on “Down with Po-
tatoes,” prepared especially for the
occasion.
During the exposition a book con-
taining “77 Ways of Using Potatoes”
was distributed to all of the visitors
and they also received a circular of
“Potato Grading.”

“WET” AMBASSADORS.
The President seems to be select-
ing men of banking experience for
some of the important diplomatic
posts abroad. Banker Dawes will
smoke his American tobacco at the
Court of St. James but drink no
Bass ale. Scotch whiskey or English
beer. The second important appoint-
ment of ambassadors is the selec-
tion of John W. Garrett, of Balti-
more, to go to Rome. While a bank-
er, Mr. Garrett has had a wide ex-
perience, and part of it in Rome. He
is part owner of a Baltimore news-
paper. Though he comes from what
is known as “wet territory” he prob-
ably will fallinline with a dry pro-
gram because of Mussolini. Hardly,
however, will Senator Edge do this
if he is finally sent to Paris, for he
is a rabid “wet” and the latter city
is not favorable to prohibition Amer-
ericans. Too much money is involv-
ed in French wines. This equation
of personal profit affects the Parisian
as the Washingtonian. One thing we
in this country have noticed is that
whereas the Washingtonian, who
has reasonable respect for the purity
of his water supply, always used to
take his drink “straight,” the
Frenchman dilutes his wine with
water he warns you from drinking.
But finances are more important
than liquor in our relationships with
these countries.

HOME MADE WINES
MAY ESCAPE DRY BAN.
Beverages made from fruits
grown on one’s own land for home
consumption must be proved to be
intoxicating, the United States Cir-
cuit Court of Appeals ruled. The
presence of more than one half of
one per cent alcohol is not a proof
of the intoxicating qualities of the
beverage, it was said. Sam Picalas
admitted he made sixty gallons of
wine containing five per cent alcohol
but insisted it was not intoxicating
and the District Court said it came
within the National Prohibition Act.
The Circuit Court reversed the ver-
dict of guilty returned by the Dis-
trict Court and remanded the case
for new trial.
