HOW TO GET RID OF NUT.GRAss.

A friend wants to know if l have
conquered the nut-grass in my
garden. Yes, have nearly finished
it, and this summer it is the srarest
weed in my garden. Last year was
the first year the garden was culti-
waited as it had been lying out as a
vacant lot One end of the lot was
set in nut-grass, and / determined
that it should go. l did not dig It
out except whatever turned up in
the blowing of the land and was
raked out. Then every day / chop
PED off that nut grass. Cut off to-
day it was UP tomorrow, but / knew
that no plant can long survive if not
allowed to make green leaves above
the ground. So chopped it off daily,
1t got thinner by frost, and as none
was allowed to seed, find few plants
this summer and have simply been
pulling them out as fast as seen, and
have not yet even had to use the
hoe on them. This is equally ap-
plicable to any persistent weed. Keep
them chopped off and they must die,
the same is true of sassafras sprouts.
These will simply increase if dug
and the roots cut, but chopped off
or mown off regularly with the now
ing machine they will soon give up.
The mower is the best implemen
to rid land of sprouts and briers.-

In travelling through the South one
is more and more impressed with
the fact that the very best land in
nearly every State is not yet in cul-
tivation. 1t has not been drained.
Into these wet bottom the fertility
of the hills has leached down, and
yet our people have too often baked
at the little extra work of canalling
and ditching that would make these
lowlands outyield the prairies of the
West. Very likely on your own
farm, Mr.. Subscriber, there are
branch bottoms Or creek bottoms
which If cleared and ditched would
give you SO for your labor for every

hiring yourself to the unappreciative
field.-The Progressive Farmer.

Aged Woman's Injuries
Thought to Be Fatal

Because of her advanced age, phys
icians at Emergency Hospital entertain
practically no hope today for the re-
covery of Mrs. Elizabeth Kent, eighty
five years old, who fell down a flight
Of stairs late yesterday afternoon at
her home, 7n Eighth street southeast.
Mrs Kent has fractured right leg and
hip and also is suffering from internal
injuries.
The aged woman was in her room on
the second floor when her daughter,
Mrs Edith McCarten, called her to
come down for dinner. Tripping on the
top step, she fell headfirst down the en-
tire flight. She was unconscious when
members of the family reached her side.
An ambulance was summoned and she
was taken to the hospital where the
surgeons decided that 1t would not be
advisable to perform an operation to
set the broken bones because Of her
age.

LOAN SHARKS OF
POLITICS DOGG|NG
THE CONGRESSM[N
Desperate Expedients Re-
sorted to Because of Cut
in Patronage.

1t has been many a year since men,
bers of Congress have been driven to
such expedients to escape their political
been in recent weeks.
Because of the inability of the Demo
cratic members of the House to pay of,
to the aforesaid political creditors their
just dues in the shape of jobs, many OF
the members have lived for some days
the lives of hunted men. They have
adopted all sorts Of expedients to es-
cape the seekers for places.
Amusing to Onlookers.
The whole business has been funny in
the extreme to onlookers. 1t has not
members who have been hardest
pressed. Some of them have actually
stayed away from the Capitol in order
to evade the men who were persistently
camping on their trail to secure ap-
pointments. Others have not only
stayed away from the Capitol, but have
even remained away from their hotels
and boarding houses.
1t has happened, moreover, that men,
bers of the House in desperate straits
have secretly changed their abodes.
They have given their addresses as one
place, whereas they have found a place
to rest their weary head at some other
address.
Afraid to Be Seen.
Many have remained away from fheir
hotels or boarding houses until late at
night and then sneaked in. Then they
have hastened away in the early morn
ing.
No suspect with a shadow chasing
him has ever been put to it to turn cor
ners any more quickly than some of
the House Democrats have been. It is
all because at the first Democratic eau
Gus 1t was given out each member
would have 200 worth Of places to dis
pense and in a few days this simmered
down to about $500. The whole perform
ance has cost the Democratic party
votes.

SEEKS TO REGULATE
PRICES FOR EVERY
BAD CORPORATION
South Dakotan Believes That
Only Way to Enforce
Sherman Law.

Representative Martin of South Da-
kota, who has lately been appointed to
a place Oh the House Committee on
Interstate and Foreign Commerce, is
planning to urge legislation which will
give the Federal Government the right
10 regulate prices of corporations which
have come under the ban of the Sher-
man law and are monopolies or attempt
ed monopolies under that law.
Mr. Martin is convinced that in the
absence of legislation for the. regulation
of the prices of the. articles sold by
such corporations, 1t will be difficult
TO reach them effectively. If the Gov
ernment were clothed with that power,
he thinks the purpose of the Sherman
law, to prevent monopolies and COM
bines in restraint of trade, could be car
ried out.
Standard Oil Case.
An. example of the difficulty present
ed is seen in the Standard Oh Com
pany. In case in the suit now pending
the Government wins and the Supreme
Court Iestrains the Standard Oil Com
pany from holding and voting stock in
its subsidiaries and receiving dividends
thereon, it is not supposable that the
business now done by the company will
vanish. 1t will go on in a different
form.
It may be expected that there will be
a community of understanding between
the subsidiary companies, and that they
will pay the same prices for crude oil
and charge the same prices for the re-
fined oil or the oil products. In other
words, If this happens, the form OF the
monopoly will merely have been
changed.
In the Northern Securities case, while
that company was dissolved, it is gen.
orally believed and charged that the
Great Northern, Northern Pacific, and
Burlington have continued to have an
understanding.
To Give Relief
Tie question then is how to follow up
the ar.ti-trust decisions with legislation
that will actually give relief to the
public. Representative Martin has been
giving a lot of thought and study to
this question. and he is convinced that
Government regulation of prices would
go a long way to better the situation.
This is a radical step from some
viewpoints. But at the same time
there is a certain parellel between
Government regulation of railroad
rates and the Government regu-
lation Of the prices of great interstate
corporations and the regulation of these
corporations is now being widely dis
Cussed in Congress and out of II.
Mr. Martin is convinced that the
Government has the power of regula-
ton such as he proposes He is con-
WINGED that the whole question of fur
ther regulation of interstate commerce
and especially OF regulation of the great
interstate corporations is going to be
Rcominent in Congress for years to
come.
