PANAMA CANAL BLOCKED.

The rejection OF the Panama canal
treaty by the Congress of Colombia,
marks one more triumph for the Amer
lean railroad combine. There is almost
a moral certainty that the railroads,
which have made canal bills their spe-
ciaI victims in the United States Con
gress for over twenty years, have cor
rupted enough Colombian Legislators to
spoil the chances of Panama for good
and all. Naturally President Roosevelt,
acting under the discretionary powers
conferred upon him by Congress, will
turn once more to Nicaragua. There,
as in Panama, he will meet his old
enemies Of the railroad trust, but the
desire OF the people and planters of
Nicaragua to get a canal is so strong,
that the legislative body may not dare
to play the railroad game.
So far as Hawaii is concerned it
would prefer a Nicaraguan to Pana-
ma canal. The distance from here is
less; connections with disease are not
so good; the great area Of Gains off
the United States of Colombia are
avoided by vessels going through. The
work of digging the Nicaragua water
way is nothing extraordinary. AS to
route. it traverses the lowest dip of the
Oordillera between the Arctic ocean
and Cape Horn. is 40 miles long with
a total excavation of only twenty
eight miles. the rest of the distance
being free navigation in river and lake.
A ship can pass from ocean to ocean
in twenty-eight hours and $4,000 can go
through in a year. a tonnage OF 49,
Oo0. coo. The minimum depth of the
canal will be thirty feet.
II the President settles matters with
Nicaragua the country will sustain
him. There is no particular choice Of
routes on the mainland. All the peo-
pie there want Is a canal.

One OF the good things for Hawaii
which we hope to see realized is the
substitution OF a large steamship for
the Alameda ON the ferry line between
here and San Francisco. For that pur-
pose a steamer like the China would be
incompatible. People who go beyond
the seas for pleasure are particular
about the vessels to which they entrust
their comfort, and the time has long
passed when third-raters of the Alamo
da and Zealandia class could attract
tourists. Many people are actually de-
tered, in these days of 12.0OO-ton liners.
from going to sea in vessels of any
thing less than 5000 tons; and this
prejudice is bound to increase with the
size OF ocean liners as a class. One
would think that the Oceanic line
might largely increase its business by
putting a really good steamship in the
island trade.

Justice Jonos's oat crop.

Lancaster, s. c., June 27.--Some
fine yields of oats this year have
been noted recently in this cores
.pondence. In this connection the
result of an experiment made by
Geo. w. Jones, manager of Judge
Ira b. Jones's farms, is well worth
mentioning. Judge Jones made a
practical test of theory in regard
to oat planting that Col. Redding, of
the Georgia experiment station, has
been exploiting for several years, a
leading feature of which is the non
covering of the seed by blowing or
narrowing, as is usually done. For
the purposes of the experiment Mr..
Jones selected ten acres of very ordi-
nary upland. The ground was first
broken up with plows and then har-
rowed. The breaking was done
diagonally across the terraces and
the narrowing parallel with them.
Then, with four-inch grab, burrows
eighteen inches apart were run, along
with the terraces, throughout the
field. Thus prepared, seventeen
bushels of oats were sown broadcast
over the ten acres. Nothing what
ever was done to cover the seed.
The preparation of the soil and
the sowing were done in the month
of October. Judge Jones himself
was skeptical as to results, but his
manager was so confideht of success
that he volunteered to pay all ex-
penses in case the experiment proved
to be a failure. Some weeks ago
the oats were cut and harvested
and, notwithstanding the fact that
this has been a very unfavorable
year for small grain, the yield turned
out TO be 523 dozen bundles. The
total expense, cost of seed, plowipg,
narrowing and harvesting, was
S39.85, leaving, at present price OF
oats, net profit of over ten dollars
per acre. No fertilizers of any kind
were used. Similar lapd planted in
the ordinary way did not make a
third as much. One Of the advant-
ages of the burrows referred to was
the protection they afforded the oats
from the damaging effects of freezes.
Every freeN} in fact Judge Jones
says, instead Sf doing injury, acted
as working" to the crop.

Hands Needed on Farms,

Farmers in many sections of the
country are beginning to face the
usual serious proposition of scarcity
of help in cultivating and harvesting
of their crops. Notwithstanding
advertisements are run in the city
papers daily asking for hired help,
the demand is twice hesupply. Men
who are idle in the city seem to have
no desire to 90 to the farm for work,
regardless of the fact that good
home, plenty to eat and reasonable
pay awaits them. And majority of
the people lose sight,of the principal
reason for this state of affairs. The
fault to a great extent lies with the
young farmers themselves. AS rule
as soon as they attain their majority
the first thing they think of is to
rush to the cities, where, in the
minds of many of them, money is
plentiful and gay life awaits them.
This reduces the force on the farms
and in itself prevents young men from
the overcrowded cities seeking homes
in the country. 1t ia hardly to be
expected that men from the cities
will take kindly to farm life when
young men who have been reared as
farmers rush off to the cities. The
remedy lies with US. Let us make
our home life desirable to our young
men. Encourage them in their work
and offer them every inducement pos
sible. The labor of son is far more
profitable to the sire than the labor
of inexperienced men from a city.
And our young men have better
opportunity of making name by
remaining at home and using industry
and thrift than they have in rushing
off to the city and becoming a nom
entity in place where there are ten
men for every opening. The farm is
the best place after all.
