DEFINITE MOVES TO STOP UOOZK
Truffle-Doors of Kvory Distillery
?ind Uondcd Wurehouso Closed?
Washington, Fob, 2-Doors of dis
tilleries mid hooded warehouses in
every State in the Union, Hawaii and
Porto Rico were ordered Indefinitely
(dosed against liquor withdrawals
to-day hy Prohibition Commissioner
Kramer, and at tho same time whole
sale liquor dealers were ruled out of
further participation in the Salo of
intoxicating beverages hy Attorney
fJonoral Palmer.
Commissioner Kramer's drastic or
der stopped tho How of liquor from
storage, and the attorney general's
interpretation of the Volstead Act,
prohibition officials said, means tho
elimination of the wholesale liquor
dealers and makes possible tho pre
vention of "bootlegging" through
forged permits and illegal disposal
of intoxicant* j
Stoppage of liquor withdrawals all
over the country and In two of the
territorio? was an extension of tho
order of last week putting a ban on
romovals In New York, Pennsylvania,
Maryland, Massachusetts, Connecti
cut, Rhode Island and New Jersey.
Tho order does not apply to with
drawals of Industrial alcohol or rea
sonable quantities of sacramental
wine, and makes an exception in thc
case of retail druggists, who are per
mitted to make withdrawals up to
five cases of liquor at a timo.
Warnings Aro Issued.
Warnings against attempts to ob
tain whiskey despite tho nation
wide ban were sent out by Commis
sioner Kramer, who directed all own
ers of distilleries and warehouses not
to honor pormits for whiskey with
drawals "purporting to ho issued hy
any State director, Irrespective of
tho date such permits Issued or ap
proved by the dlroctor." No such ap
plications are being approved, he
said, adding that failure to comply
with the notice would deprive own
ers of tholr license to hold their stock
still in storage.
Mr. Palmer's opinion was made
public by Internal Revenue Commis
sioner Williams, and was said by
revenue bureau officials to constitute
the authority upon which tho swoop
ing closing orders were Issued
Wholesale liquor deniers, mo at
tornev erm ?I .??Md, .nc ont'Lied to
dispose <?. their warehouse receipt ?
foi stored in bonded ware
houses, to manufacturers and whole
sale druggists, "but the right ?to
withdraw said liquors from bonded
warehouses ls granted lo manufac
turers and wholesale druggists only."
On the question of the authority
of the prohibition commission to Is
sue permits lo st? 11 liquor in whole
sale quantities the attorney genet. I
held that power was limited to man
ufacturers and wholesale druggists.

TUA DINO OF SEED FOE MEAL.
Some Figures that Show thc Relative
Values UH Plant Foods.
( Progressive Farmer.)
A reader says she can exchange
a lon of oottcn seed for 1,500 pounds
of cotton seed meal, hut to do so she
must haul the seed livo miles and
haul the meal hack to thc farm. She
wishes lo know whether she should
usc the seed on the land for fertil
izer or make this exchange.
If we assume that 1,000 pounds
of cotton seeil meal is worth about
the same in value of plant foods as
one ton of cotton seed, then we have
."ino pounds of cotton seed meal, on
tho basis of this proposed trade, to
pay for hauling a ton of seed five
miles anti 1,.">00 pounds of meal back
to the farm. At $32 a ton for cot
ton seed meal, 500 pounds of meal
ls worth $8; therefore, it looks us If
il will pay to haul these seed and
trade them for cotton seed meal on
the basis proposed.
Below aro given the plant foods
In an average ton of cotton seed and
also the amounts of the different
grades of cotton seed moal required
to furnish approximately the same
amounts of plant foods:
Ono Ton Cotton Seed.
Nitrogen .64 lbs.
Phosphoric acid.20 lbs.
Potash.2 1 lbs.
1,000 Pounds Cotton Seed .Meal
(7 Per Cent.)
Nitrogen .63 lbs.
Phosphoric acid .27 lbs.
Potash.22 lbs.
1,050 Pounds Cotton Seed .Meal
(7?? Per Cent.)
Nitrogen.65 lbs.
Phosphoric acid .26 lbs.
Potash.21 lbs.
1,000 Pounds Cotton Seed Meal
(8 Per Cent.)
Nitrogen.66 lbs.
Phosphoric acid.L'.? lbs.
Potash.20 lbs.
From the above it is plain that,
since cotton seed meal is more satis
factory for use as fertilizer, when
ever one can trade a ton of cotton
seed for enough more than 1,100
pounds of 7 per cent cotton seed
meal, l,0f>0 pounds of 7 % per cent
cotton seed mool, or 1,000 pounds of
s per eon) cotton seed nie I t<> obj
fo.r the hauling or for making the
exc'ua???:e 't will hf . dvatitn:;eocs <?>
make ? Uti trade,
There ls another reason why the
trade should be made when lt ls
economical to the farmer to do so.
The oil In the colton seed is of no
value for fertilizer, but ls worth
something for food and to the oil
mills. The mills will almost always
Rive more than enough meal for seed
to pay the farmer to make the trade.
