WASHINGTON, March 19.-Thirty
members of the senate are in the last
year of their present terms. The con-
ventions or elections of the summer
and fall will decide, in almost all the
cases, whether the toga wearers shall
return to their law practice or disport
for six years more in the marble tenn
pie of legislation on the hill.
In regard to several of the senator's

would not be a candidate for re-elec-

The disk harrow is the most valu-
able implement that any farmer can
have-it does not matter whether ne
farms 40 acres or 10000 acres. There
are certain soil conditions which must
be overcome if good crops are to be
raised, and the disk harrow is the
only implement that has yet been
invented that will overcome these
conditions in a most satisfactory man.
ner. The raising of crops depends upon
the physical condition of the ground,
temperature and moisture, it is essen
tial that the farmer should under
stand how to conserve moisture, par
ticularly in dry years. There may not
be a rainfall enough in one season to
raise large crop, yet If the moisture
has been properly conserved, no farm
er need fear a failure.
The principle of conservation or
moisture is based upon capillary at

must be in contact with the next one
above it. When the ground is dry,
hard and sun baked, the particles of
soil are in the best possible condition
for capillary attraction, consequently
moisture escapes rapidly. Disking this
ground forms a mulch of fine loose dirt
which breaks up capillary attraction,
thus preventing undue escape of mois-
ture from the surface, but in no wise
interfering with the raising of the sub
soil moisture near to the surface This
mulch of dirt also permits the ground

traction with the turned over furrow
and the ground underneath, thus MAX
ing a much better seed bed than is
possible when the ground is turned
without previous disking. A compact
seed bed cannot be made with trash to
form ar spaces, and the atmosphere
in the sub soil Isl prevented from rails
ing to nourish the roots of the growing
plants. This same thing is true of
any kind of ground which is not mel
low.
Suppose in a dry fall field of stub
BILE land has been cleared of shocks
and is ready for fall blowing. If the
farmer would disc the stubble well as
soon as the shocks are removed, loose
mulch would be formed which would
help to avoid excessive evaporation
of that moisture which remains in the
soil, allow the moisture in the sub-soil
to accumulate near the surface and
prepare the surface to absorb rains
readily, thus enabling the farmer to
pillow in the field when, under ordinary
conditions, the ground would be too dry
and hard.
One year may be too wet to grow
good crops. another too dry and the
third most favorable The use of a
disk harrow in any one OF these sea-
sons is not going to hurt the land a
particle-even if it is not necessary,
and it may do d great deal of good.
Thus the farmer is not taking any
chances when he disks, and he is TAX
ing grave chances when he does not.
In the coast section where rains pack
the soil during the winter season the
disc has been used to good advantage
in preparing the seed bed for the var
ious crops. In one instance, farmer
figured that an oat crop yielded nearly
double that of an adjoining field, mere
Nv because the ground had been twice
disced and narrowed before planting.

A new phase of the high cost of liv

The increased rates prevail in all
parts of the city except the great east
side, where the infants got together
and refused to stand for the increase.
Owing to the great number of them
