Up To the Farmer.

1t is possible within a few years to
double the average production of corn
per acre in the United States, and to
accomplish it without any increase in
work or expense. 1t should not be
understood that the present corn crop
will be doubled, but that the same
yield will be produced OH smaller
number of acres. If tifty-five or sixty
bushels are raised OH one acre instead
of two, the labor of blowing, harrow
ing, planting, cultivating and harvest
ing will be greatly reduced, and con-
sequently the cost of production will
be reduced. Poor corn crops are
usually attributed TO unfavorable
weather conditions, and quite often
this is the true cause as there are
few summers during which the crop
does not suffer more or less from un-
favorable weather conditions at some
stage of its growth. However, there
are other conditions which are re-
spOnsible for the low production
These conditions are under the direct
control of the farmer, and it is up to
him as TO whether he will increase
and in many cases double his present
yield.

US Of the National Capitol Briefly Noted in
Passing for the Reader.
Passing for the Reader.

President Taft and Senator Al6r::ch
are planning an investigation Of eco
nomic conditions as affecting prices
which will reach out and overshadow
anything of the kind ever attempted
in the United States. Behind it they
will put directing force which will
make new record in official investi-
cations. Quick returns, based upon
a scientifically practical inquiry, will
be demanded. 1t will not be long
tenure commission of plump salaries
and little labor. There will be a
snappy, vigorous examination by ex-
perts, with view to remedial legis-
lation. 1t will be intensely practical.
When Congress convenes next De-
cember the men who conduct the in
quiry will be expected to have at
hand information of broad general
character. and a plan to blot out any
thing which is undesirable.
Neither of the resolutions which
have been offered in the Senate is
likely to be found adequate in their
present form for the inquiry which is
desired. One which was offered by
Senator Lodge has been reported
favorably by the Committee on FL
nance. Having been reintroduced.
the Elkins resolution is also in the
hands of the Committee on Contin-
gent Expenses, which is estimating
the cost of tie inquiry which is COW
cred by the Lodge resolution. Some
combination of the two is probable.
Discoveries important to national
life may result from the inquiry. IF,
as Secretary Wilson contends. the
farms have been deserted to increase
the population of the cities, there
will be presented the problem of re-
colonization.
