CONsERvNG THE SON.

Because the wonderfully rich soil
of Kansas which is devoted to agri-
| cultural purposes is new land" prac-
tically speaking, the farmers who are
growing rich in the working of it have
not paid much attention to conserv-
ing it's fertility. There has been no
need for it. in one sense of the word,
and they have gone ahead growing
the same sort of crops on the same
land with generally good results for a
number of years. But the time is not
far distant when the Kansas soil, or a
good portion of it that is now under
cultivation. will become worn out by
being forced to produce the same sort
of crop with each succeeding year.
Then the agriculturists will have a
condition confronting them which will
not be easy of solution.
1t is possible for them to delay this
day by paying attention to this i'm
portant matter now and add new zest
and life to their soil through a rota-
ton of crops and in a variety of other
ways. Attention is called to this fact
in brief but pointed editorial COM
ment in recent issue of the Wiscon-
sin Farmer under the suggestive head
ing of Banking Principles in Farm
ing" It follows:
THE absolute necessity of conserv-
ing the fertility of the soil has never
been more aptly and emphatically ex-
pressed than by James j. Hill, the
railroad builder, when he said: You
can no more take wheat from the soil
continuously than you can take money
out of a bank without making de-
posits.'
''Mr. Hill counts restoring fertility
to the soil a far more important ques-
ton than tariff, banking, trusts or any
other of the topics that find frequent
discussion. He believes that if Amer
lea is to continue great and wealthy it
must nurse that which is the source
of the greater part of its wealth: the
soil.Y

matter of fact it will be of no benefit

And this is the tariff revision down
ward that was promised to the peo-
PIE and also that has been demanded
py their president, Mr.. Taft. The
necessity for increased governmental
revenues was apparent to everyone
when the tariff revision was promul-
gated. President Taft recognized it
and in his special message to con-
gress on the tariff question he asked
for a tariff for revenue. Now the
best kind of tariff for revenue that
can be devised is one where the
schedules are all generally low and
which will attract imports in such
large amounts that the aggregate ina
posts on them will be far in excess of
any revenue that can be obtained
from high tariff schedules on a small
er amount of imports. But Aldrich
and his friends propose to increase
the revenues by increasing the tariff
burdens, and such decreases as they.
have made in schedules on necessities
are very nearly Offset by the increases
on other necessities. But this is prob
ably the last time that the people will
place themselves in a position to be
fooled by any such tariff jugglery.

TARIFF LuGGLERY.

That there is really going to be no
such thing as a tariff revision down
ward If Mr.. Aldrich and his friends
have their way is made plainly ap-
parent by some figures which have
been made public finally on the esti-
mated revenues that will accrue to
the country under the measure as
they propose it. These show that the
bill, such as they have in mind, will
increase the revenues of the nation by
$10,321.515 each year. The aggre-
gate increase. will be $14,573,052 but
this will be offset by some decreases
provided in the bill to the extent of
| $4,251.537.
Emphasis is laid on the fact that of
the aggregate increase 81. 54o.24
will come from advances in the rates
on luxuries and only-please mark
the "only'-S3,O32,S1 from increase
on necessities. Further on in the
statement of these figures come the
announcement that of the aggregate
decreases, all of this amount except
$265,544 is by reason of reductions in
/ the rates on necessities.
! Now does Mr.. Aldrich and his
1 friends think that the consumers, who
made the demands for a tariff revis-
ion downward, are going to be salts
fed with any such sop as is conveyed
/ through this clever juggling of fig
ures? Let's analyze them for a min
ute. The total decreases amount to
$4,251,537. All of this consists of re-
auctions on necessities except $265,54
which deducted from the aggregate
decreases leaves the decreases on ne
cessities amounting to $3,9S5.993. But
the bill carries increases on other ne.
cessities to the amount of "only'' So
i O32,S10. Placing that in comparison
with the decreases on necessities
and it is seen at glance that the mel
Il decrease on necessities amounts to g
paltry $953,1S3. 1t certainly is te

that will be to the pocketbooks OF
