Opposition to Measure.

In opposition to the bill. Hugh r. Har-
vey, secretary Of the Washington Mer-
camille Association, was the first speaker
At the very opening Of his remarks he
characterized the bill as a prohibition
measure.
1.-THE title to the bill reads that it Is to
regulate the liquor traffic." he said,
'tbut the bill means its determination
rather than it's regulation
He called particular attention to the
provision establishing an extended pro-
htbitive zone.
A letter was recently sent to every
man who holds q liquor license in the
District, asking him to reply IL he were
not within 1000 feet OF one of the res
ervations or buildings named In the bill.
Not q single reply has been received.
to show that any saloon could escape
the limitation. It Is upon that showing,
said Mr.. Harvey. that he based his state
ment that the bill Is prohibition meas
ure.
.sDo you object to that provision which
will limit the number Of saloons to for
every 1000 OF the population" asked SEN
ator Gallinger.
II do not know how that could be
brought about" replied Mr.. Harvey, ex-
planning that there are many more than
| that number now.
do you think. Mr. Harvey. as a good
citizen. that liquor should be sold twenty
out of the twenty-four hours?" Senator
Gallinger asked a minute later.
IT have found that men will get liquor
anyway. Therefore do not see any OBJ

Simon VOLTS Arguments.

Simon Wolf addressed the committee. in
behalf of many affiliated German organ
izations Of the city, in opposition to the
measure. Mr.. Wolf declared there Is not
q better governed city in the world than
Washington, and this is the view taken
by him after visiting many in all parts
Of the globe.
II have not seen the tremendous reel
ing about the streets and on the street
cars that we have heard about here to-
day." he continued. 1.-THE present law Is
efficient, except in minor details.
81 know that prohibition does not pro-
hibit. I visit Atlanta every year and, al
though Georgia Is prohibition state. I
can get all the liquor I want In every
hotel in the city. Such legislation makes
liars and hypocrites.
II was recently in the city of Savan-
nah and I asked a policeman where
could get a drink of liquor. He took me
around in front of q Catholic cathedral
and then said that this cathedral was
the only place in Savannah where could
not get liquor"
Mr.. Wolf started discussion with
Senator Gallinger by declaring that the
BARRIERS violate every Sunday the law
compelling barber shops to be closed on
the Sabbath.
Sunday in an effort to get shave and
couldn't" declared Senator Gallinger.
.'You come to me and Til take you to a
dozen places where you can get a shave
on Sunday replied Mr.. Wolf.
.aThe passage of this bill means con-
|hscation Of property" concluded Mr.. Wolf.
LET the present law be enforced and the
police force reinforced. Do away with
the American system Of treating and
adopt the Dutch system of having every
body pay for himself"
do you think that is feasible in Wash
ington?" asked Senator Galliuger.

After this the cultivator is used, but

keeps the surface of the soil loose,
.conserves the moisture and gives a
chance for the root system to spread.

One Of the recent farmers bulletins

The improved planters of today open
the furrowH drop the seed, cover it.,
firm the dirt over the seed and mark
the next furrow. Such planter is
drawn by two horses. The writer
plants the potatoes about two or two
and one-half inches below the surface
of the soil. Experiments with potatoes
planted in rows all the way from thir-
ty-six to forty-two inches apart indi-
cate that the best distance depends
upon the seasonal conditions and type
of soil. 1t is problem for each grow
er to solve for himself The distance

each farmer must determine this from
his own experience. l plant them
eight inches apart in rows thirty-six
inches apart. This gives the largest
tonnage Of potatoes of desirable size.
The writer's experience has been that
seed of large size two to six ounces)
produce strong. vigorous shoots, as
they furnish an ample supply of plant
food to sustain strong and vigorous
growth until the feeder roots, can take
up the food from the soil.
During the last two years the best
results were obtained from planting
medium sized whole seed. While the
cost Of the seed has been considerably
greater. the stand has been approx
mately perfect. Experience has prov
ed that from one or two eyes only are
sprouts developed in uncut seed. The
seed end furnishes a strong vine. The
other eyes usually remain dormant.
One of the greatest advantages Of
using whole seed is the protection
from disease which may be present in
the soil and which may attack the
more tender exposed parts Of the cut

toes are planted the cultivator should
be started. This implement has four

PREPARING CORN FOR HOGS.

Iowa Bulletin Offers Valuable Suaaes-
tions to Farmers.
In the corn belt, where corn is the
principal hog food and hogs one of
the principal farm products, the best
method of preparing corn for feeding
to hogs is a question worthy of the
attention of every farmer. The most
common method Of feeding corn is in
the ear just as it comes from the
crib. Other methods that are often
used are Smelling and soaking, grind
ing and feeding dry, grinding and soak
ing and grinding together with the
cob. 1t is estimated that it took a
hundred million bushels Of corn to
feed the hogs Of Iowa last year, &C.
cord1ng to bulletin from the Iowa
experiment station. To have shelled
and ground this corn would have cost
100000. In order to find out wheth-
er or not such an expenditure would
be justified the animal husbandry sec
ton Of the Iowa experiment station
conducted a series Of experiments in
which corn prepared in all these diff
ferent ways was fed to both young
and old hogs. These experiments,
which were conducted during 1907 and
1903. produced some interesting and
valuable results. The data and con
illusions obtained from these expert
ments have been published in bulle-
tin No. 1O6 a careful study Of this
bulletin will be Of great value to every
hog grower in the corn belt and give
q definite basis on which to plan fu-
ture feeding operations. Copies can
be obtained from Director G. r. Cur
tiss, Iowa experiment station, Ames,

it grows, and sells for about $50. A
ton of butterfat, on the other hand,
sells for about $500 and takes only
SO cents worth of fertility from the
soil. Selling wheat is selling soil,
while selling butter is selling air, sun,
shine and water. A dairy COW returns
to the soil three-fourths of the fertil'
ity in the food she eats. The dairy
COW produces several times as much
food as a beef animal. She yields Oh
an average about one thousand lbs
of dairy food matter each year for
about six years. The average beet
animal, according to careful compu.
tation, produces about 240 pounds OF
food matter in year, and has to die
to yield it.-Chicago Dairy Produce.
