UNITED STATES ISSUES
PEACE CONGRESS CALL
Secretary Hay Carries out PresI-
dents instructions by Sending a
Circular Note 70 the Powers.

Washington dispatch: In circular
note Secretary Hay has carried out
the presidents instructions relative
TO proposing n second Hague confer
ence. The note not only contemplates
the reaSsembllng OF The Hague con
ference for the consideration OF Ques.
items specifically mentioned by the
original conference. as demanding
further attention-such az the rights
and duties OF neutrals. the inyiolabil-
ity OF private property in naval war
fare and the bombardment OF ports
by naval forces-but goes further by
practically indorsing the project OF a
general system OF arbitration treaties
and the establishment OF an interna-
tional congress 20 meet periodically
In the interests OF peace.
The issue OF the call while the
present war Is In progress is iusti-
fed by the fact that the frst Hague
conference was called before the
treaty OF peace between the United
States and Spain was concluded.

cowpea Bacteria.

The cowpea bacteria are already
quite widely distributed in southern
Illinois. especially where this crop has
been grown for several years. but
they are not common IN the soils OF
other parts OF the state. II In doubt
ful, however. n II Is necessary or even
worth while 60 take the trouble TO
inoculate soil for cowpeas. Some few
tubercles almost invariably develop
on eowpea roots the FIRST year they
are seeded, even where they have
never been grown before. and II seed
ed the second year on the same land
the plants are usually abundantly
provided with root tubercles. Just
why the cowpea bacteria develop so
rapidly even without special inocula.
ton is not definitely known. II may
be that the same bacteria also live
on some other leguminous plant which
Is more or less widely distributed over
the state. but II seems more likely
that the bacteria are brought with the
seed. As a matter OF fact. the cowpea
harvest Is usually dirty. This Is an
annual plant. and consequently tho
crop is grown on recently plowed land
and is sometimes cultivated during
the season Cowpeas are commonly
harvested with moving machine and
then raked up on the loose ground.
When they are threshed more or
less dirt remains with the seed. Fur
thermorc. the seed coats are not In
frequently cracked. thus providing an
excellent place for the Judgment OF
PARTICLES OF soil
Whether II would be profitable 20
inoculata the land for cowpeas would
depend very largely upon the difficulty
or cost OF obtaining the infected ma
terial. II soil thoroughly infected with
the cowpca bacteria can be scattered
over the land az the rate OF about
1000 pounds 20 the acre nj cost -
81 or less per ton. Il might prove
profitable. II Is doubtful II n light
application OF 100 or 200 pounds would
produce any very marked effect In
the yield the FIRST season. After the
soil becomes well infected the cow
peas then obtain much nitrogen from
the air. and the yield Of cowpeas is
likely TO be largely Increased. OF
course there Is no fxation OF atmos-
pheric nitrogen II there are no tuber-
cles on the rootl.
In 1902 several plots OF cowpeas
were seeded on the soil experiment
field at tho university One OF these
plots GOD had become thoroughly
infected with the cowpea bacteria. be
cause OF It's being so situated that
more or less surface drainage water
flowed over II from an adjacent field
upon which cowpcas had been growr
for three successive years Another
plot (i0S). owing 60 a slightly differ.
ent situation. had not become in
fected. The two plots were seeded
In July after a crop OF oats had been
removed from the land. Within three
weeks after seeding. numerous root
tubercles could be found on the plants
on the infected plot Later on. ten
average consecutive plants were taken
up as completely as possible. and 4i2
tubercles were found on tho roots.
making an average OF more than 40
tubercles 20 tho plant on plot 4OS
only an occasional plant was found I'm
