NOVEL POINT IS
RAISED IN SUIT.
Claim Made That Michigan Laws
Don't Apply To Contract Made On
Postofice Property.

Does the Michigan state law apply
to contract made on the site of the
Detroit J ;stoffice?'
This rs a question: that Judge Hos
mer, OF the circuit court. Is trying to
solve.
The point was raise by Attorney
M. II. Bishop In the case Oh Leonard
Il Speck against Conner Bros. con-
tractors for the addition to the federal
building. The plaintiffs are seeking
TO recover 500 on a sub-contract Tor
heating and plumbing work which was
let to them by Conner Bros. The de-
PENDANTS are not only contesting the
claim. but also contend that the laws
of the state of Michigan have no
Jurisdiction In the matter, inasmuch
as the contract was made and execut-
ed on federal property, namely, the
Detroit postoffice.
Attorney Bishop quoted q number OF
cases In which the supreme court OF
the United States had decreed that
actions In contract cases involving
two states should be tried In the state
where the contracts were consum-
mated.
II don't think those are parallel
cases." said the court TO Mr.. Bishop.
Anyway. don't you think that II
gave you promissory note In the
postoffice you could recover under the
laws OF Michigan IL l didn't pay the
note?"
Mr. Bishop admitted that he believ-
ed he could collect under the state
laws, but he argued that the making
and execution of a contract on fedar-
al ground was another matter entire
tirely.
Mr.. Bishop also contended that his
clients were immune because the law
of the state governing foreign corpora
tons can't apply to federal agency.
Common Bros, because OF having the
contract to build the postoffice add
ton, were a federal agency. Mr..
Bishop argued.
Attorney Frank c. Cook, for the
plaintiffs, sets forth that Conner Bros.
are not entitled to protection under
the federal agency laws. inasmuch as
the firm didn't secure a certificate
from the secretary Of state for larry
ing on business In the state OF Mich.
igan. He also contends that the laws
of the state are applicable In the suit
against the firm.
Judge Hosmer, who heard the arSu-
ments Thursday afternoon, took the
case under Amusement
The outcome Of the case will be of
more than ordinary interest TO the
lawyers throughout the state, as IL Is
the first time the novel point has been
raised.

wheat or cotton will soon make the
farmer poor and reduce the fertility of
his soil so that II will be difficult for
him to ever get paying crops again
The average thrifty farmer Is the one
who grows all, or nearly all, of the
feeds and foods consumed on the farm.
Dividing the farm into small fields, ro-
tating crops. and making each small
field as rich as possible will give
greater present returns on the farm.
Farmers are frequently so rushed
with their work, especially in spring,
that they never plant and cultivate
any crop well. Never let work push
you, push the work instead. Do not
try to plant and cultivate large fields,
but set aside small fields and make
them yield all that 1t is possible for
them to yield. Turn the rest of the
farm out to pasture, or let the land
rest for season. There is more profit
In this than In simply scratching over
a large field.
In mixed farming, the great value OF
having small fields is that when
fenced they can be used In rotation of
pasture for the better health of the
stock and the utilization of waste
feeds.

Perhaps there is not another class
of everblooming flowers of easy cul-
ture that surpasses the new Gladiolus-
lowered Cannas for a gorgeous dis
play in large beds. The plants be-
gin to bloom early. and improve In
beauty and showiness as they increase
In age, until their glory is suddenly
cut short by the hand of Jack Frost.
In the south they are equally effec-
tive until winter comes, and even then
the clumps can remain in the earth
until planting time in the spring. The
flowers are large, of bright colors and
distinct variegations and are borne in
huge, erect clusters, as shown In the
engraving, each plant bearing several
clusters, says Parks Floral Magazine.

SUCCESS ON
SMALL FARM
I'm Mixed Farming Great Value OF
Having Small Fields AZ That
They Can Be Used IN Rota.
tton of Pasture

OF late years much has been said
about the value of the small farm.
Few people stop to consider the value
of the small field when 1t is given in
telligent care and cultivation.
Not many years ago the farmer who
tried to cultivate large fields was con-
sidered the man who was doing large
things. Modern methods of farming
have taught us that large things can
be done in the small field. The man
who grows thousand bushels of corn
on a small field is a more successful
farmer than the one who grows a
thousand bushels on large field.
The farmer who intelligently re-
duces the size of his fields. and makes
each smaller field grow more in pro-
portion than the larger fields, is on
the right road to success. All corn.

a very long driver, and kept dropping
his ball in the neighborhood of the

Special Crops.

If a farmer finds that he can make a
success with a special crop, averaging
one year with another, it is best for
him to attend chiefly to that crop, and
to buy the machinery best adapted to
handle it at the least outlay of labor.
Also to make a special study of that
crop and to place it before the other
interests on the farm. Almost every
farmer should specialize more than he
does on the crop or stock that he
finds is making the best returns.
