Farmers Organization.

Organization among farmers means better farming, for many heads are better than one. It means better busi- ness, for if anything is clear in mod ern business life it is that the man who stands alone is at disadvantage, writes Clifford Pinchot in Texas and Pacific Quarterly. And, most of all, it means better living on the farm, better social and educational ad- vantages for the farmer, his wife and their children, more comfort, greater satisfaction and less desire to leave the farm. When the things that make life worth living are found in greater abundance in the country than in the towns, as some day we shall all see that they are or should be found, then country life will take it's rightful place. And the way to reach it is along the road of cooperation.

Soy Bean Vs. CoWpea.

The Tennessee experiment station reports that the cowpea is preferable for planting either with corn or sor- ghum and generally for seeding broad cast, while the soy bean appears the more valuable of the two crops when grown as a grain producer, as an in- tensive farm crop. The best varieties of soy beans are more certain to pro- duce high yields of seed than any of the cowpeas. Soy beans at the sta tion have proved more resistant to light frosts than the cowpea and also less sensitive to cool weather in the spring Other points of comparison favorable to the soy bean are higher protein and fat content, freedom from weevil attacks in the seed, the ripen- ing of the seed at one time, and ease of harvesting and threshing the crop.

How often do you eat this food?

A short time ago there appeare in the columns of one of the prominent magazines an article on building brain and muscle by the proper selection of the foods you eat.
 A good many people were surprised to find oatmeal placed at the top of the list of foods recommended; but if the article had appeared in an English or Scotch paper every reader would have expected to see first place given to good oatmeal.
 As matter of fact, Great Britain and Europe come to us for tremendous quantities of Quaker Scotch Oats be- cause it represents to them perfect food, being the richest in flavor and best in cleanliness and purity, of all oatmeals.
 It is packed in regular size pack ages, and in dramatically sealed tins for hot climates. 55

COTTON TO MAKE SOUTH RICH
lent Climate Southern Farmers Have Many Advantages.

The Progressive Farmer and South cated crop diversifcation by southern farmers, and because of splendid soil and climate suited to the profitable production of a large number of crops, the farmers of the south have superior advantages for money ma king. Discussing the question how cotton growing could make the south rich, that paper says:
 Did you ever realize that the south ern farmer has the greatest cinch in all history. asked President Charles Barrett the other day And he went on to point out that we cannot only grow all the great staple crops that farmers grow everywhere else, but we have a virtual monopoly of cotton, the greatest money croo in the world. With such conditions southern farm CTS should indeed be among the rich est and most contented farmers on earth. That they are not is not the fault of the crop, or of the land they live in, but of the wrong methods that they have followed
 Let us suppose, as the children say, for little while. In the first place, let us suppose that every farm CT in the cotton belt would begin this year a systematic rotation of his crops; that he would plant at least one-third of his land to legume crops i; that he would feed these crops. along with his corn and stover and cot ton seed meal to live stock. and re-

The notice in the newspapers of the approaching marriage of his former wife came as a complete surprise to him. He said the only information he ever has had of divorce Is such as he has seen in the public papers.
 Tn case he receives no direct word from Nebraska, MT. Leavitt says he will leave here in time to reach Fair view before the marriage can take place.
 T should not hesitate to stop the ceremony if that were the only way to get possession of my children" he said.

Cotton FertiIizing Test.

In fertilizing test with cotton at the Florida experiment station the largest yield of seed cotton was se- cured where 260 pounds of cotton seed meal, 3S.4 pounds of muriate of potash and 150 pounds of acid phos- phate per acre were applied This plat was 04 acre in size and yielded PTS pounds of seed cotton. A plat fertilized in the same manner, with the exception that only 120 pounds of cottonseed per acre was applied, pro- duced 220 pounds of seed cotton A plat fertilized in the same manner iwth the exception that only 120 pounds of cottonseed per acre was applied, produced 229 pounds of seed cotton.

| turn the manure from the stock to his soil. Let us suppose that he would begin to take care of his soil, to study it's needs and to labor for its enrichment; that he would aa fast as possible fill 1t with humus, drain or terrace it if necessary, get rid of stumps and ditches and other l obstacles that hinder successful cul- tiyation with improved implements | and more stock. Let us suppose that 1 each acre planted to cotton this year would be we'll plowed and thoroughly pulverized before planting time; that the seed would be of the best obtain able strains; that the fertilizer ap- piled to the crops would be chosen with special reference to the crop needs on that particular soil; that cultivation would begin with weeder or light harrow before the grass started and would be kept up till late in the season; that the land would be sown in a cover crop next fall, and next years cotton crop planted on land where a leguminous crop had grown this year Let us
  suppose that these things were kept up for ten years, or even five years. At the end of that time would the south, i'll your opinion, be a poorer or richer country than it now is; would cotton farmers live in better houses, or poorer ones; would they have more money, or less; would re- finement and culture and progress and aspiration be more or less in evidence than at present?
 Every farmer in the cotton belt is not going to do these things, but why should not every reader of this paper so far as is in his power work toward this ideal? With first consid. eration given always to the upbuild- ing of the soil, with due attention given to food and feed crops and the growing of live stock, with a careful, painstakfng study of the great prob lens of soil preparation, seed selec- tion, fertilization and cultivation, with every acre of cotton made to produce just the largest yield prac- ticable, cotton is bound to be profit able crop-a wonderfully profitable crop, bringing wealth untold to the men who grow it, and despite boil weevils, bad seasons, spectators and the chronically shiftless and indiffer- ent, making the south the fairest and richest agricultural land upon which the sunshine falls.

Williams Demands Hearing.

The instant he concluded his slow, emphatic reading of one of the most savage speeches ever delivered in the grand ballroom of the Waldorf, and resumed his seat, up jumped Thomas T. Williams, publisher of the Evening Journal, and close personal friend of Hearst. Pale with rage and swing ing his fists within three feet of Mayor Gaynor, Williams demanded to be heard in defense of Hearst.
 There were TOO men in the banquet room. editors and publishers from all over the United States. The balcony boxes bloomed like a flower garden with the brilliant gowns of the women guests. Before Tom Williams explod. ed out of his chair, the dinner had been serene.
 Angry, or indignant, or excited, or merely curious, half of the TOO showed forward for the trouble center, while in the boxes the women were shiver. ing with excitement There was a steady roar of voices, over which Williams shouts rose high. The ban. queters tried to yell him down.

 Toastmaster Nat Wright pleaded with him. MT. Stone consulted with Mayor Gaynor, who shook his head, showing no emotion other than a stone man. Oscar, manager of the hotel, was sent for. House detectives fiocked in. There were cries for the police. Williams could not be budged.
 For half an hour he faced a storm of yells and threats, standing in front of the guest table or on chair di. rectly in front of Mayor Gaynor. The management of the Waldorf was in a quandary They tried to get per. mission to put Williams out, but neither Postmaster Wright or any. body in authority in the two associa tions would say the word The tur- moil was unceasing. Finally Adolph $. Ochs, proprietor of the New York Times, got Williams consent to speak for him. Not half a hundred people heard Ochs say that since Hearst was not present to speak for himself, and since Mayor Gaynor was guest of the associations, the mayor could not be answered at that time, but that MT. Hearst would reply to him later
