The correspondent Of TheJ Journal
writes. from Hudson to say that Governor
La. Toilette was misrepresented in the
reports of all the papers In his remarks
about the United States senators. It
seems that what he said was not his own
description of the senators but that he
held In his hand at the time a copy Of
a magazine containing portraits of sew
eral senators and that he called attention
to the fact that in this magazine lover
nearly every one was written in large
letters the name Of the corporation he
represents" This Mr.. La Toilette said
describing the printed picture, but not
expressing his own personal opinion. 1t
is easy to see how this governor has
been misunderstood and misquoted and,
assuming that our correspondent is cor
rect, the governor is entitled to some
modification Of Judgment as to the i'm
polite character Of the politics which he
displayed in that address and which was
made the subject Of editorial comment
in this paper. It must be admitted, how
ever, that the governor displayed a lo1
of interest in that picture when he intro
duced it into his address,. f..

Richard Barry, a newspaper CORE
spondent, speaking Of his experiences at
Port Arthur, says that the most effect
i've agent used by the Japanese was the
shell filled with shimose powder. He
says: .---
''The mere effacement Of a whole bat
talon of men by one shell from a field
piece is not so surprising; but to see a
bastion that has required months to con-
struct and upon which the ablest engd-
neering skill has been expended, reduced
to dust and pebbles. by one large, well
directed shell filled with shimose, and the
men in supposed safety behind it buried
In the debris, Is terrifying to a degree
that cannot be conveyed to the civilian
mind"
The shimose powder must be a marvel
for all the correspondents agree that the
Russians soon found that a powerful
brand Of canned mule-kick was being
thrown by their enemies.

ROTATION OF CROPS.

DR.. Withycombe, Of Oregon Expert
ment Station. is working on a ten-year
system of crop rotation; but one Of a
shorter succession he has just now
given out to the farmers.
First. raise n crop of corn fOt the
silo. Whom the corn is harvested, disc
the ground once and drill in wheat.
This, in IN average season, will yield
about forty bushels 10 the acre.
The beginning of March SOW on the
ground six pounds Of red and two
pounds of alSike clover, and fifty to
scventy-fye pounds Of land plaster to
the acre. After the wheat crop Is
taken Off, with this treatment, there
will be three or four tons of clover hay
to the acre, and withal a second crop
may be counted on for seed or pasture
The following year, expect three tons
and good pasture to follow. After the
second years pasturing, turn in and
sow TO winter wheat in the fall, or. if
preferred, winter oats. Use land plas
ter each spring on the clover. The two
principal objects in this rotation are,
first, to reduce the labor to a minimum,
and secondly, the ground is kept in n
good condition. This cultivation can
go on ad infnitum without any great
loss Of plant food.

Feed PLENTY OF GRAIN.

There is no use in wasting time on
inferior beef creatures. In selecting
calf for beef purposes, l would choose
Durham. The first thing to know is
that your calf is of good beef type.
By feeding from calfh0od you are able
TO make steer that is ready to go to
market at short notice. \ calf should
be fed grain as soon as it will eat it
If flesh and fat are to keep pace With
bone and development, l think heavy
grain feeding is the only course to
pursue. All the grain the calf will eat
without taking the edge Off his appe.
tite is good rule. Corn should form
about half the ration. 1t is best to al.
low the same person TO feed the calf
all the time. Give it salt, and allow
it TO have access to a ,ank of fresh
water. BY the time the calf is a
month old allow it 10 eat some hay
BY careful feeding and attention. by
the time your calf is a year old it will
bring you a. good price for beef, at
your local butchers or any place you
want to sell it.
l believe that raising calves for mar.
ket, if they are the right kind of stock.
is as profitable as any line of farming
The helfers will always bring good
prices, and the steers will top The
market at the yards.-S. A. NJ, in In.

Cooperative Socialism In Belgium.
Socialism In Belgium has developed
largely In the direction OF cooperative
snterprlses. In that particular 1t
has taken a frmer hold In that coun-
try than elsewhere. Cooperative
evolution is already too far advanced
for any opposition by the State to be
effective. There are many huge CO.
operative organizations, and their
energies are directed toward almost
every phase of economic life. In the
main they may be said to be success
fui; certainly they are far more sue
cessful than any attempts at cooper
alton which we have seen in imerl-
ca. Without doubt their influence
Is beneiicent. Most Of the great CO.
operative associations have their own
libraries, devoted particularly to eco
nomic and social science. In the
Vooruit, at Ghent, | have seen col
lection Of many Thousands volumes
devoted to these two subjects.

Always Says State Of Maine.

A really curious question has been
raised by the Boston Herald. Why,
it asks, does a Maine man always
speak of his part of the country as
the State of Maine" instead of call
ing 1t simply Maine" as New
Yorker would say New York" or a
Nebraskan "Nebraska?" As an ade-
Quate answer to the inquiry it says:
Maine was not one of the original
States, but up to 1920 was a part
of Massachusetts. 1t was then known
as the District of Maine. In 1920
Maine achieved her independence
and became separate State of
ence and became a separate State of
the Union.

POTATO SCAB.

The potato tubers are often made
rough and scabby by the growth of
the disease on their surface. These
injuries vary from rough or rnsseted
appearance TO deep scabs or ulcers that
greatly injurc the appearance of the
potato. Singularly enough,' scab is
more common in the best potato soil
than It is in localities where the crop
is precarlOus. Sandy or grWvelly soils
when first brought under cultivation
often give large per cent. of scabby
potatoes. but after one or more crops
Of alfalfa have been plowed under,
this tendency is partially corrected.

SuAPING TREES.

1t used to be the practice OF orchard
lists to prune and train young trees tc
branch out six feet or more above tho
ground and induce them TO grow in III
upright rather than a spreading form
so that the branches would not pre-
vent plowing under and close up Ia
the tree. The opposite practice is to
train them to branch out close to the
ground and make low, spreading tops.
Some prefer the latter method be-
cause, they say, although it prevents
plowing close up to the tree trunk, the
trees do not need it, in fact, ii is often
harmful, rs many of the small feed
rootlets are cut, thus retardin" the
growth of the tree. The shade Of low.
headed trees helps to suppress the
growth Of grass and weeds, and the
soil may be kept moist enough by
the application OF little mulch. The
low-headcd trees are less exposed to
winds and a smaller proportion Of the
fruit will be wirdfalls. II is believed
that such trees come into bearing ear
lier. and that their naturally spread
ing habit Of growth promotes fruitful.
ness. OF course, it is easier to gather
fruit from q low tree than Il high one.
Most Of the fruit on tree trained with
this object in view may be reached
from the ground or from a short step
ladder and the cost Of gathering and
the risk of bruising the fruit be thus
considerably reduced.-The Epitomist.

INoCuLATING CLOVER SEED.

In most new countries it is the gen
eral opinion that clover will not do
well in that particular section. We
believe the difficulty lies in the absence
in the soil of certain bacteria, which
enables clover and other leguminous
crops TO appropriate free nitrogen from
the air. These nitrogen-gathering bac-
terra multiply rapidly when once in
troduced, but usually do not become
generally distributed until long after
the need Of leguminous crops is felt.
This is the situation in northwestern
Montana. With view of Fastening
the advent of clover the writer has
procured a package OF dried culture
Of clover bacteria from the Agricul-
tural Department of Washington and
proposes to experiment with it next
spring. The bacteria is TO be mixed
with gallon of water, which is used
to moisten the seed or soil.-National
