wistfully away toward the little rift

later this same much-discussed and as

striding forth in the wake OF the

eyes clouded with something like dis
pleasure at sight of a tall, lanky civil

lieutenant-colonel commanding. He

'te'J NS''Sa'ee' ESPo'sSs
Champ Clark looked over a publica-
ton recently issued by the agricul-
tural department entitled "Soil Inocu-
lation for Legumes." He found this
simple sentence The primary OBJ
ject in undertaking an investigation
of the fiXation of nitrogen by the
root nodules of legumes was to devise
If possible some method of bringing
about the artificial introduction of the
necessary organisms into a soil which
was naturally devoid Of them, and at
the same time to attempt as far as
possible to correlate and reconcile the
vast amount of conflicting evidence
that has been accumulated by various
investigators in regard to the exact
nature of the organism, where the
nitrogen is fixed, the effect upon the
host, and similar problems" After
wading through the wonderful com
! position the Missourian exclaimed
Fine, splendid. And now we ought to
