is THE SOIL GIVING ours

American soil Is losing IFS fertility,
recording to James j. Hill. The great
railroad magnate ought to know, foi
he has made a careful study OF the
subject.
The yield In wheat, for instance.
has fallen of heavily, says Nh. Hill
While Minnesota soil yielded 1912
bushels 70 the acre ON the average
during the first Ave years OF the past
decade. during the last five the aver.
age was f21s. In New York the
figures are ls.4 and ia. while In
Kansas there has been a drop from
l5.14 bushels TO 1913. Similar find
ings are made In the other States.
Mr. Hlll makes his point clear BY
citing the average yield IN Denmark
-6O.i9 bushels, which he says Is due
10 the scientific cultivation and en-.
richment Of the soil. Although the
land has beeu titled for centuries. Il
has Ave times the yield Of the praeti.
cally virgin soil OF America, simply
because the Danish farmer looks AZ
tor the soil instead Of leaving IL to
chance and the elements TO see that
IL does not run down.
The intelligent among American
farmers are learning. and the less
Intelligent will learn. that the prodi-
sal exhaustion OF large holdings OF

The SUNS washington correspond
emit comments upon DIR. Bryans speech
Of acceptance as follows.
'.Mr. Bryan dealt the Republican
party some terrific blows ON some very
Vulnerable spots. Mr.. Bryan charges
secretary Taft with attempting 70
amend the Republican platform,
which Is an admission that the trusts
and not the people wrote It. It Is
well known that motion was made
In the Republican National Conven-
ton to provide for the physical valna
ton OF railroads as a guide by which
the amount Of stocks and bonds should
be issued by the roads. II Is well
known that the Republican National
Convention voted down this PROPOSE
ton. A great hardship on the people
OF this country results from the fact
that when a railroad IL organized and
its stock Is sold, the money for that
stock goes into the pockets Of the
organizers and promoters as pure
greft, and then the crowd Of grafters
that organizes it issues bonds for
building the road. SO that all OF the
proceeds. OF the stock is practically
stolen and the bonds 60 to the build
ing OF the road. BY this wholesale
stealing and grating, which has
characterized all the roads Of the
country, the people are compelled 70
pay rates for transportation high
enough TO pay the interest on the
bonds issued and dividends on the
stock, which Is practically all water
n the railroads OF this country had
been built on honest principles. and
II they we're now being built ON hor.
est principles, the public could secure
transportation at one.half OF what they
are now paying. Mr.. Taft has seen
the evil OF this and has recently held
joint debate with his own platform.
This only shows how completely the
Republican party has surrendered to
corporations and trusts. Mr.. Bryan
not only stands 10 correct this mighty
evil, but his party Is united at his
back, whereas the Republican party
Is bitterly opposed TO 1t as shown by
their vote IN the Chicago convention,
which voted down the physical valua-
ton proposition by $50 votes against
li2, showing that more than 8 to
OF the leaders Of the Republican
party are opposed to H."

The following Is taken from the
August number OF Florida Health
Notes, issued BY the State Board OF
Health. and is especially commended
to the dairymen and cattle raisers OF
AIachua county:
while many cities and towns OF
the Union. and even in the State OF
Florida, are introducing and passing
laws looking to the closer inspection
Of cattle to insure pure milk and 10
guard against that dread disease,
tuberculosis. the town Of DeLan0
stands n the unique position Of being
the first in the State Of Florida 70 be
thoroughly inspected. That fact Is
due TO the enterprise and conscien-
tiousness OF oar dairymen. who did
not wait for laws TO be passed, fore.
ing them to have their cattle examin-
60. but as soon as they learned that
there was danger from that source,
and that the State Board Of Health
stood ready to help them, they made
their request for veterinarian to be
sent down to inspect their cattle"
And the veterinarian was sent, and
every herd furnishing milk to the
citizens or DeLand was tested. All
the herds except two were found 70
be absolutely free from tuberculosis.
one OF these had two cases, These
were made away with Immediately.
The situation then was narrowed down
to single herd. and that, by the way,
Is a most interesting one. In that herd.
a COW died of tuberculosis, some three
or four years ago, but no effort was
made TO clear the herd at the time.
what has the result been? That Of
twenty-three cows twelve we're found
TO be tuberculons. one strongly sus-
pions, and only ten negative. The
lesson Is. that when tuberculosis gets
into herd. II gradually but surely
infects the COWS, one after another
SO It IA only a matter Of time when
the majority Of them will have the dis.
ease. The lesson Is that II man
would save his COWS from tuberculo-
sis, and thereby save his purse. ne
must have them tested often, at least
once year. and remove every
tuberculous COW. This man did not
DO H. and while his neIghhor had
twenty.ssvcn cows absolutely free
from tuberculosis. he had twenty.
three with only ten free, The environ
ments OF the two herds were the
same. the climate and other condi-
tiona the same; the only difference
being that the one let tuberculosis get
started. and did not remove II until
II had made terrible Roadway.

The Jacksonville Metropolis OF last
Monday contains an article referring
to the recent dastardly murder Of w.
II. AIoreland at High Springs,
which spreads It on" entirely too
thick. What brought about the article
was threat" The Metropolis claims
to have received from a member OF
what it terms ''The Gang" as follows:
Metropolis You had good
article about the High Springs
fire. am one OF the gang that
started it. oWners were against
our gang when Billie shot that
d. Moreland. and we want to
put them out OF business. They
talk too d much.
/ am now pursuing Eaton, and
viii kin him II he goes back to
High Springs. Yours truly,
MEMBER OF GANG.
P. S.-Drummers will have to
carry winchesters in High
Springs.
The Metropolis says the above was
mailed in Jacksonville, and The Sun
therefore doubts that 1t came from
any citizen Of High Springs, or any
Member Of the Gang" II has the APP
pearance of having come from another
source
The Metropolis says that during
recent years not less than twenty-three
murders have been committed in High
Springs What does The Metropolis
mean by recent years?" There have
not been twenty-three murders com.
mitted in High Springs and surround.
ing country during the writer's resi-
dence OF thirty years In Aiachua coun-
ty, though God knows there has been
a sufficient number to have resulted IN
several hangings had the iiends been
apprehended and properly punished.
But in some instances killings at
High Springs have been declared
justifiabIe by iuries, and not all of
them have been Of the nature of the
murder OF seIlars and MoreIand.
The good people of High Springs, and
there are as good people there as are
to be found anywhere. are put TO sufi-
cient shame for the crimes that are
really committed there by the lawless
element. without having the condition
Of affairs made to appear so much
worse than II really is. and The Me
tropolIs has exaggerated matters 10
entirely too great an extent. Just as
dastardly murders have been commit
ted In Jacksonville and Duval county
and the perpetrators gone unappre.
hended as were ever committed IN
High Springs and AIachua county. and
they viii be committed in every State
in the Union many years after the
present generation has passed away.
The Sun Is making no apology for
the lawless element OF High Springs.
On the contrary. we deeply depIore
that the town has been the scene
Of so much lawlessness and sincerely
hope that the perpetrators OF the
IouI murders and robberies committed
there viii be brought to justice and
made to pay the penalty OF the law.
