The Strawpile

should contain about equal parts of
cotton-seed meal and high-grade acid
phosphate. The beneficial effect Of COM
mercial fertilizers depends largely up
on the presence OF humus in the soil,
hence the Importance of using stable
manure and blowing under green crops.
In applying the foregoing instructions
the farmer must use considerable judg-
ment and modify his practice where
necessary to fit local conditions.
The fertilizer should be distributed
several days before planting, as there
lis danger of injuring the seed II
brought in immediate contact with
strong fertilizer. A very careful mixing
Of the fertilizer with the soil is neces-
sary for the same reason. On all ex-
cept very rich, waxy lands, it will pay
to use commercial fertilizers somewhat
literally.
Where as much as 400 pounds Of fer
tilizer is used for corn, we recommend
two applications, one in the furrow be-
fore planting, and an application of
from $50 to 200 pounds of cotton-seed
meal in the furrow when the corn is
about one foot high.
Where lime is used scatter it broad
cast when the land is plowed, using
about four barrels of air slaked lime
per acre, or apply in the row about two
barrels per acre a short time before
planting, mixing it thoroughly with the
soil.

CUTTING THE CAKE.

Milwaukee is attracting general at
fention thru its socialist mayor and his
platform The fame of Milwaukee is
not to rest entirely upon single bev-
erage.
The socialistic program is alluring.
There is also a lot of common sense
in il because il looks TO the general
good and convenience. But no man or
city or state can eat its cake and
have it. Conveniences, public or pri-
vate, must be paid for. But the Mil
waukee program appears to contem-
plate cutting the cake SO that all who
are entitled get at least crumb.
This is a new system Of cake cutting
and its Inauguration in a city so stolid-
~ capable of self-gevernmeft as Mil
waukee is significant Milwaukee's
so-called socialism is simply a mani
festation of the demand for a square
deal and the protection of the rights of
citizenship, rich or poor, high or hum
BILE 1t isn't socialism at all as the
average man understands socialism,
but cutting the cake according to the
count of noses.

Electricity From Wind.

The machinery of a modern wind
mill is just as far advanced over the
crude machinery of the windmill OF
fifty years ago as is the works of a
fine watch over the works of dollar
alarm clock. One type Of wind turbine
for instance, consists of a wheel about
sixteen feet in diameter mounted upon
steel tower fifty feet in height.
The entire wind wheel is of galvan
lied Steel and all its moving parts rua
on ball bearings. It's transmission gea;
works in an oil bath and, ACCORDING
to Popular Mechanics, the best methods
known to engineering have beer
adopted in order to eliminate friction
and enable the wheel to make the best
of light winds
The result is that even in a WIND
having velocity of no higher than six
miles an hour the turbine generates
electricity. Such an electric generator
and switchboard and a fifty-five cell
storage battery as it's electrical APP
paratus. The wheel is always in run
ming position, ready to make use OF
every puff that comes. and 1t steadily
makes and stores current except Il
times Of absolutely still weather.

Protecting Women Workers.
New York Tribunel.


The supreme court Of illinois has
Just sustained a state law limiting the
working hours of women employed in
mechanical establishments, laundries
and factories. The court declares that
the restriction is not unconstitutional
because it seems to violate the freedom
Of contract guaranteed to all citizens.
On the contrary, sufficient reason is
found in the fact that long hours of
continuous labor must impair the vi
tally of the average woman and make
her less capable of discharging the dut-
les of motherhood to warrant the in
vocation of the police power of the
state to mitigate condition threaten
ing the future welfare of the commun-
| ity. The individual right of free con-
tract, the court holds, can properly be
abridged when it comes into conflict
with the public interest. AS The
lSpringfield Republican" points out, this
! decision is the more notable because
! it exactly reverses an opinion OF the
same court delivered about fourteen
years ago. In 1895, when the Illinois
Legislature passed an act limiting tht
working hours Of women in certain oc-
equations to eight a day, the constitu-
tionality of such a. restriction ON thu
power of contract was broadly denied
The court then said: >ss

eJORNSTJsRNE BJORNSON.

Norway is in mourning for Bjornson
as America for Mark Twain. She has
lost her greatest writer, who was much
more than writer. Bjornson was the
adviser and friend of all Norwegians.
He came into their intimate relations
as Mark came into ours. Poet, journal
ist, novelist and playwright, reformer
and friend Bjornson was brother TO
king and bonde. He was Norways
first citizen
Like Clemens, he lived long among a
multitude of friends and brethren. He
was active in the literary and polit
ical life of Norway when Buchanan
was president Of the United States. His
Journalistic effort reused Norway and
famed the flame Of democracy. His
outspoken boldness sent him 20 prison
and forced him abroad; but he had his
part in the reformation and came back
to Norway to live IN high honor and
deep respect beyond the limit Of mans
years Not all reformers are 50 fortu-
nate; but not all countries reach the
mental manliness of Norwegian citi-
zenship.
These were two great men whose
genius was a blessing to themselves
and the age they lived in. Both have
left indelible foot prints on the sands
of time" And having lived their lives
and accomplished their devoir it was
time for viking and argonaut to set
sail toward the mystic island of Avalon.

Growing Leeumes.

There is gas called nitrogen which
is present in the atmosphere in i'm
mense quantities, and which is neces-
sary to the growth and thrift OF vege-
tation 1t is found in some form In
many different substances. and when
sold as a fertilizer commands a very
high price. 1t is doubtful IL nitrogen
can be bought with profit in the form OF
fertilizer for use in enriching farm
lands except under special conditions
For greenhouse purposes or for the
truck gardens, where intensive farm
ing is practiced. it may prove profitable
but the ordinary farmer can not af-
ford ii. He can, however, secure an
abundance of nitrogen and add ma
terially to humus in his soil by grow
ing some one OF the leguminous plants
and occasionally blowing under
crop. Perhaps cowpeas are the best
for this double purpose. tho any kind
of clover is equally valuable. one
hesitates to pillow up good field u1
alfalfa for the sake of the nitrogen
and the humus that would be added tc
the soil, while he might not hesitate
to plow up a crop OF cowpeas or soy
beans-Kansas Farmer.

INDICATING TAG6AR1.

Tom Taggart is candidate before
the democratic state convention OF Ind
lana for Endorsement for the office Of
T. S. senator Taggart says he needs
the Endorsement as ''vindication.'
1t will be remembered that Mr.. Tag
CART was mixed up justly or unjustly
with very nasty mess in Chicago
recently and that serious charges were
made against him. He now proposes
to the democratic convention thaa he
be 'vindicated" by being Endorsed as
the democratic candidate for the United
States senate. In more than one way
his application is in the nature of an
appeal
Mr. Taggart has been very promi-
nent democrat Outside of politics he
has become so well known as to be
notorious. His hotel business at
French Lick the size OF the ante and
the rake-off ob tanning in the French
Lick games have all assisted to pub
licity for Mr.. Taggart and the resort
ing place.
No doubt Mr.. Taggart needs "vindi-
cation" Perhaps a democratic state
convention is the easiest and quickest
place to get it. But it is hard to see
how such vindication Will go far
toward the re- establishment of Tag
CART vindication should at least par
TALLY vindicate.
II is natural enough that Mr.. Tag
CART should look toward the senate ito
round out his career" But it is hard
lines in citizenship when the United
States senate IS looked on by men
Of the Taggart stamp as refuge and
nomination TO the most distinguished
legislative body as the "vindication' of

For Seed Potatoes.

Experiment shows that the most eco
nomic potato seed is made by cutting
a medium-sized tuber into quarters. It
also shows that larger pieces OF seed
potatoes will produce a very much
heavier yield as the young plant has
more nourishment to begin with; under
field conditions, however, the medium
sized tuber cut in quarters is the best
and most economical. Plant fmmedi-
ately after cutting the seed. If this can
not be done, spread the seed out in a
thin layer in a cool, dark place, and
they may be used at any time within
ten days after cutting without APP
probable loss. Never sack or barrel

constitution and law, to tho endow
ment Of woman with the Fundamental
and inalienable rights of liberty and
property, which include the right to
make her own contracts, the mere fact
of sex will not justify the legislature
in putting forth the police power Of the
state for the purpose Of limiting her
exercise of those rights. unless the
courts are able to see that thu ere Is some
fair just and reasonable connection be-
tween such limitation and the public
health, safety or welfare to be secured
by it.
The connection between such limi-
tation and the public health safety and
welfare" was not apparent to the
judges Of the Supreme bench of Illinois
fourteen years ago. Now it has become
apparent, and this Qualification of Wis
ion proves that the movement to regu-
late the employment of women as well
as Of children in industry is making
progress and upsetting the laissez faire
doctrine of the recent past. The New
York Court Of Appeals has inclined in
recent decisions to give free scope to
the right of contract and to minimize
the protective interference of the po-
lice power in regulating the employ
ment Of women in industry or at occu-
pations requiring labor in the evening
or at night. But the tendency of the
times is towards fuller recognition of
the rights of the community where in
dividual freedom is prejudicial to social
welfare. AS factors in industry, women
do not stand on the same footing as
men, and the interests of society as a
whole demands that the state protect
them from the strain of too exhausting
physical labor, even though 1T may
seem to deprive them to some extent of
equal power with men to dispose of
their own terms Of their own services.
