commissioners of labor on the cost Of
living, the advance in price Of neces-
sites and the value Of labor since
1907. At that time a report was
made to the effect that labor was not
able to purchase as much as in pre-
.vious years.
The report was severely criticised
by Republican statesmen because q
political campaign was about to open.
An amended report soon made its
appearance and its comparisons, more
exhaustive than in the first report,
explained some of the most damag-
ing statements previously made.
Since 1907 there has been a sharp
increase in the cost Of living, al
though there has been a gradual in
crease for a dozen years. In a spe-
cial dispatch from Trenton, N. j., it.
is stated by the state board Of labor
and statistics that the cost of living
in New Jersey has increased in
thirteen years 81 1900 per cent.
These facts have been brought
home to a number of Senators by
their constituents. The people want
to know whether combinations and
price arrangements have raised prices
to the existing excessive figures. They
want to know what the farmer and
the middle mar get to determine
whether the margins of profit are
too great. Senator Crawford will
have little difficulty in getting his
resolutions of inquiry passed.
Senator Bristow Of Kansas be-
lieves that combinations have some
thing to do with the advance in the
cost of necessities, but thinks that
the desire for Injuries has more.
"The people of this country have
grown accustomed to luxuries," he
said. For years they got the best
of everything at prices lower than at
present. When prices were advanced
because Of demand they had to take
the next best. The result has been a
general advance of all grades of ne
cessities.
81 believe the combinations have
had much to do with it, but not all.
When the wholesaler advances slight
ly the retailer advances and the two
or more advances made before the
articles reaches the consumer make
the general advance a burden on the
wage Garner.
II would like to know the relation
ship that exists in all cases or in
large communities between whole
saler and the retailer. l have heard.
but do not know, that in some in
stances the wholesaler controls the
retailers and fixes the retail price.
81 do not think the tariff can be
held responsible for these advances.
There can be no defense Of the wool
en- schedule; no justification for the
sugar tariffs except to insure perpet-
uity to the sugar trust. A wholesale
condemnation of the tariff. is not JUS
tilted. however. 1t should have been
built to cover the difference between
cost of labor at home and abroad and
to give protection to American indus
tries and 1t was not built in all its
schedules"

MUCH KNOWLEDGE /. 1. &.
required BY U. S

AS a. result of IA new set of BLANKS
which are used in all homestead
proofs as a result of an order of the
department, Ia Is seldom that u claim
amt appears I'm the United States
land Office prepared to make "a per
feet proof. It Is possible that the
claimant dn question was informed
by his neighbor as to what was re-
quired when he proved up and the
fact that there has been q recent
change, Is confusing to some extent.
At the present time, witnesses in
Homestead proofs are required to- an
swer "a series Of questions concerning
the land which tells its entire his
tory for the past five years, the length
of time the homesteader has resided
there.
The land is taken up by forties
and description of the crop, the
amount harvested for each Of the
five years is required. To man not
Moore interested than neighbor and
wdnose observations have mot been
particularly close, 1t is often next to
impossible to get the matter straight
ened out. It would doubtless be nee
essary for the claimant to keep a
derry in order to get his story abso-
lutely correct.
When appearing before land Of
fire to make proof, claimant and wit
nesses should be p1 epared to give the
exact crop history for five years.

The indirect benefits of dairying,
through the return to the soil of the
starw and manure produced on the
farm, are much larger than we or
dinarily think.
The average load OF barn yard ma.
nure is worth not far from $3.50 ton
reconed in the market prices, one
would have to pay for the nitrogen,
phosphorus and potash contained.
Rotted manure will give much
quicker results, but in rotting, much
Of the value has been lost This Is
especially true Of the nitrogen.
The best way to handle manure Is
to haul it direct from the barns to
the field and spread it thinly with a
manure spreader. Ten loads spread
over five acres will give larger results
than ten loads spread over one acre.
One of the main objects OF manur-
ing is to get back into the soil large
amount of vegetable matter, and for
that reason we cannot afford to burn
the straw that we produce. An acre
of wheat land will yield not far from
ton of straw, and a ton, on the basis
of fertilizer values, Is worth about
1925 to $3.50.
In other words the man who burns
his straw piles from quarter section
field sends up in smoke the cost of
five first class dairy cows. Or the
straw piles Of the quarter would ed
ucate his boy at a farm school. 1t
would buy him a fair team of horses.
With it he could pay the grocery bills
Of a. large farnre for the year.
We want the straw back into the
soil in part to enrich it, and in part

to make 1t hold water better. Soil
that has lost its vegetable matter cas-
lily dries. out and becomes what we
farmers know as dead" soil. The
working back into the soil of this
straw manure Is one OF the most i'm
Sportant things and in NO way can he
50 easily do 1t as by keeping stock
in sufficient numbers to pick it over
tramp it down, and reduce it to ma,
nure.
