INLAND WATERWAYS.
Great River Stems Should Be Made
Into National Highways.

The conservation OF our natural re
sources and their proper use constitute
the fundamental problem which under
lies almost every other problem of our
national life. We must maintain for
our civilization the adequate material
basis without which that civilization
cannot exist; we must show foresight;
we must look ahead. As nation we
not only enjoy II wonderful measure OF
present prosperity, but II this prosper
ity is used Alright It Is an earnest OF
future success such as no other nation
will have. The reward Of foresight for
this nation IL great and easily foretold.
But there must be the look ahead;
there must be a realization of the fact
that TO waste, to destroy our natural
resources. to skin and exhaust the land
instead OF using 1t SO as to increase Its
usefulness, will result in undermining
I'm the days of our children the very
prosperity which we ought by right to
hand down to them ampllfed and de-
veloped. For the last few years
through several agencies the govern
ment has been endeavoring to get our
people to look ahead and TO substitute
a planned and orderly development OF
our resources In place Of n haphazard
striving for immediate profit. Our
great river systems should be develop
ed as national water highways, the
Mississippi. with its tributaries, stand
Ing first In Importance and the Column
bia second. although there are many
others of Importance on the Pacific
the Atlantic and the gulf slopes. The
national gOvcTmCnt should undertake
this work. and hope II beginning viii

Of the department of justice during the
past few years has been such as to
make It evident that no man stands
above the law: that no corporation Is
so wealthy that II cannot I've held TO
account. The department of justice
has been as prompt TO proceed against
the wealthiest malefactor whose crime
was one OF greed and cunning as to
proceed against the agitator who in
cites to brutal violence. Everything
that can be done under the existing
law and with the existing state of pub
lie opinion, which SO profoundly influ-
encss both the courts and juries, has
been done, but the laws Themselves
need strengthening in more than one
Important point. They should be made
more definite. so that no honest man
can be led unwittingly TO break them
and SO that the real wrongdoer can he
readily punished.
Moreover, there must he the public
opinion back of the laws or the laws
themselves will be of no avail. At
present, while the average juryman UNI
doubtedly wishes to see trusts broken
up and Is quite ready TO fine the cor
poratiOu itself. he Is very reluctant TO
find the facts proven beyond reason
able doubt when 1t comes TO sending TO
jail a member of the business com
munity for indulging In practices
which are profoundly unhealthy, but
which unfortunately the business com.
munity has grown to recognize as
well nlgn normal. Both the present
condition Of the law and the present
temper of juries render II task of ex
IRENE difficulty TO get at the real
wrongdOer In any such case. especially
by Imprisonment, yet II Is from every
standpoint far preferable to punish the
prime offender by imprisonment rather
than 10 fine the corporation, with the
attendant damage to stockholders.
The two great evils in the execution
Of our criminal laws today are sentl
mentality and technically. For the
latter the remedy must come from the
hands of the legislatures. the courts
and the lawyers. The other must de
pend for its cure upon the gradual
growth OF sound public opinion
which shall insist that regard for the
law aud the demands of reason shall
control all other influences and emo
tlons in the jury box. Both Of these
evils must be removed or public dis
content with the criminal law will con
tinue.

CHILD And WOMAN LABOR.
No Industrial Question Of More lmpor-
lance Than This.

No question growing out Of our rapid
and complex Industrial development Is
more important than that of the en-
ployment of women and children. The
presence of women in industry reacts
with extreme dlrccfaess upon the char
ucter of the home and upon family
life, and the conditions surrounding the
employment of children bear II vital re-
lation to our future citizenship. Our
legislation In those areas under the
control of the congress Is very much
behind TIC legislation OF our more pro-
gressive HtatcS. A thorough and COM
prehensive measure should be adopted
at this session of the congress relating
TO the employment of women and chill
dren In the District OF Columbia and
the territories. The investigation into
the condition OF women and children
wage earncrs recently authorized and
directed by the congress Is now being
carried on in the various states, and
recommend that the appropriation
made last year for beginning this work
be renewed In order that we may have
the thorough and comprehensive invcs-
tigation which the subject demands.
The national government has NJ an Ill
innate resort for control of child labor
the use of the Interstate commerce
clause TO prevent the products of child
labor from entering into Interstate COM
merce. but before using this 1t ought
certainly to enact model laws on the
subject for the territories under its
| own immediate control.
There is one fundamental proposition
which can be laid down as regards all
these matters-namely, while honesty
by itself will not solve the problem. YET
the insistence upon honesty-not mere
ly technical honesty, but honesty IN
purpose and Spirits IN essential ele
ment IN arriving at right conclusion

METHODS or SEEDING.
When tho Earth Is Partly Frozen and
Later In Spring.

Whom tho Earth Is Partly Frozen and
Later In Spring.
In describing good methods Of seed
ing an Indiana man writes In Orange
Judd Farmer as follows:
One method OF seeding clover III this
section Is to SOW the seed In wheat or
rye during February or early March,
when the ground Is practically bnre
and has thawed slightly The frost In
the night forms honeycomb appear
nnce on the surface. The seed lodges
in this mesh, and further freezing and
thawing bury the seed so that 1t be-
comes we'll grounded and Is not germi-
mated by the first few warm days Of
carly spring when It would be killed
by frequent sharp freezes,
The Secret of Success.
The secret Of success with this meth
cd IL to SOW when the seed will not be
likely to wash into pockets and to SOW
early enough so that 1t Is completely
buried and out of danger of germlnat-
ing until warm weather This method
Is specially adapted to hard clay and
poor lands
Plan of Late Seeding.
Another good method Is late seeding
at a time when a spiked tooth harrow
can be driven across the field. This
must not be attempted until the land
Is dry and the harrow will work up
the surface soil This method is prefer
able on rich, loose soils, because there
Is little risk of the seed being killed by
early freezes. The seed begins at once
to grow in the fine seed bed. Besides,
the narrowing improves the growth of
the winter crop worked upon.
Method With Oats.
Seeding IN outs is practiced by many
and has given good results when prop
erly followed. The essentials are
mellow, dry seed bed on which the
seed is sowed close behind a disk har-
row before rain has packed the
ground. l use this method frequently.
broadcast the oats, disk the ground
both ways, then harrow with spiked
tooth harrow and seed to clover
Finally the ground Is rolled or harrow
ed thoroughly to cover the seed. BY
seeding close after the disk and before
rains and thoroughly rolling and pack
ing the ground this method will usual
ly prove successful. The oats should
not be seeded quite so heavy when
clover is sown, or the latter will be
smothered out.
Pasture Young Glover Lightly.
This clover should not be trodden
during the first year except to clip
down the weeds in August If, how
ever, it is very rank it may be pas
tured moderately until the first frost.
No stock should be allowed upon it
during the winter.
