ROOSEvELTS DEAREST FOES
Big Interests Afraid to Say what They Think, But One Editor Calls Him
 "Besotted Eeotist."

The big interests" and the news papers affiliated with them hate every hair in Roosevelt's head, but more than they hate him do they fear the people behind him, and only now and then does one of those to whom Providence, in it's wisdom, has en- trusted the property interests of the country dare disclose the feeling of the gang toward the disturber of special privilege.
 The Argonaut which does not de- pend upon the common people" for circulation, blurts out what the others think and abuses Roosevelt heartily.
 The real inspiration of MT. Roose- velt's activity says the Argonaut, lis his gluttony for personal distinc- tion. To sit on reviewing stand, to gallop forth across a parade ground before the, eyes of applauding thou sands, to win huzzas for ringing com monplaces-all this is a passion with him. He has indulged his propensi- ties in these respects until all power of resistance has been lost. And so at an untimely moment he is cavorting about the country saying and doing things which tend to the confusion of political purpose on the part of the multitude, to the embarrassment of the President and of the party. He wants to be the central figure in every picture, the supreme popular idol, a man bigger in the public esteem, big ger in influence than the President himself. It is the course of a besotted egotist lost to all sense of modesty and of patriotic obligation, a man in whom greed of applause has subordi- mated all of the ordinary considera- tions of political propriety and loy- atty"

SCIENCE FOR FARMERS
Experts Will Tell What They Know About Soil at Convention in
 Los Angeles.

The question of soil fertility has been an important one in the Impe- rial Valley ever since the first settlers arrived. Various reports have been made by the Government, the State, and by private companies and indi- vlduals and considerable information has been secured, but the problem of handling the soil to the best adyant- age is still the most important con- slderation to the farmers outside of securing a permanent and, adeuuate water supply
 Ihls problem can only be solved by a careful study of soil conditions and or the results of experimentation Good crops have been secured. on various soils in the valley, and con- sequently the immediate need of soil study is not realized in many cases. Here however, as in every other agri cultural section of the world diff culties will arise regarding the treat ment and handling of the soil to pro- duce the best results. The question Of alkali reclamation, of plant food requirements for crops, the improve ment of physical conditions of the soil, are all important considerations now and will become more important as irrigation continues.
 These are vital questions. and while the State Experiment Station cannot undertake to solve every mans prob lens for him, it is anxious to help in solving some of them.
 With this aim in view, Professor Ralph E. Smith, Superintendent of the Whittier Laboratory, cooperating with the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, has made arrangements for a Soil Convention, or more accu- rately, a short course of lectures on soils' to be held in the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce on October 8 to inclusive.
 Dr. Cyril G. Hopkins and Dr. F. H.. King two of the most widely known soil experts O this country, will spend some time investigating our California conditions and will then deliver four illustrative lectures each. There will be lectures also by Professor J. H.. Norton, of the Citrus Experiment Sta ton at Riverside and by Dr. c. B. Lipman, of Berkeley, on Soil Bacter- iology. An exhibit of fertilizers and soil samples, agricultural implements. irrigation paraphernalia, etc., etc., will be held at place convenient to the lecture hall.
 Agricultural scientists are continu- ally discovering new facts relating to economical plant feeding. These soil experts are coming to tell about, the latest achievments of science. There will be ample opportunity for ques- tions and discussions.
