disposed to lay it to the lack o.
rainfall. In fact, normal rain
fall is the exception this year ir
most states. Lack of rainfall Of
prolonged drouth the rule. 1t i:
we'll, however, for them to inquire
Does this account for all of the
shortage?
On many farms the farmer
may have an object lesson, if he
will but keep his eyes open. Per-
haps he will find on the next
farm a crop of thirty bushels OF
corn per acre, where he has but
fifteen bushels. There has been
no difference in the rainfall, nor
in the temperature. Many a
farmer has harvested a fifteen
bushel wheat crop, while his
neighbor has harvested twenty
five or thirty bushels. Now in
the same neighborhood there was
no difference in the rainfall or
temperature. What has been the
matter with your crop? Why is
it less than your neighbours? 1t
takes more than rainfall, and
more than temperature to make
the earth yield its full increase.
If you will look into the mat
ter closely, you are very likely to
find that the main difference be-
twixt you and your neighbor is
that he has vegetable matter in
the soil and you have not. If a
chemist were to analyze the soil
in these two farms he would not
likely find any difference. There
is probably just as much potash,
just as much phosphorus, just as
much lime, in your soil as in
your neighbours. You may not
have as much nitrogen, because
you do not have as much humus
or humus material.
You may say that your neigh
boris corn was put in on clover
sod and yours on cornstalks.
Possibly you put three or four
crops of corn on the land in sue
cession. This in itself may ex-
plain the difference; for you had
no right to expect as much of a
crop as your neighbor, who put
in his seed on clover sod. His
soil, we'll stored with vegetable
matter, retained moisture better
than yours. His soil was in bet
ter physical condition, and the
roots of the plants could get
1old of the plant food in the
soil. Your soil ran together; the
.oots did not have a chance for
'ull development. But, you say,
am a grain grower; he is a
stock farmer. Very we'll; this
should teach you that you cannot
ROW one crop nor any succession
# grain crops on land continu-

eaSon as this.

RODGERS TO WIND UP
HIS FLIGHT IN PLASTER.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Nov. 10
Aviator c. p. Rodgers is planning to
complete the ocean-to-ocean flight,
which was so nearly ended when he
fell neal Compton, early next week.
Rodgers is suffering from severe
sprains in both ankles. and 1t will be
necessary for him TO be strapped in his
machine with his feet In plaster casts
If the flight is made.
Plaster casts won't bother me- said
Rodgers. II can fly with feet am
putated II necessary, and I'm going to
touch the Pacific with my skids IL 1t
kills me-
1t will take the staff of mechanics at
least five days to repair the broken
parts and tune up the biplane. Then
Rodgers viii be ready to ny yer the
remaining seven miles to Long Beach.
Ethereal asphyxia, a dread somno-
lent something which turks in the up
Fer air and creeps irreslsJibly pon the
senses of an aviator, lulling him to
dreamy Inconsistencies, is blamed by
Rodgers for the accident which hap
pened to him. TO the same form Of
coincidence Rodgers also lays the death
of Hoxey, tombstone, Ely and other
aviators who fell from great heights
after they had seemingly lost control
Of their machines. Rodgers's explana
ton of the cause of his fall is believed
to have given scientists a subject which
will require much study before its So
luton.

Baroki, a Syrian. and his son George,
to be allowed to visit another son and
brother in Canton, o.
Father and son recently visited two

business at Trinidad. They arrived
here on the steamship Byron. of the
Lamport & Holt line, on october 20.

of money. They were sent to Ellis
Island because the Marine Hospital
doctor did not like the appearance of
George Baroki's eyes. There it was
found he had trachoma, and he was or
dered deported to Trinidad. The father
refused to travel without his son and
appealed to Washington. In vain a
relative from the West offered to give a
bond. stipulating that they would leave
the country after visiting Canton.
The law requires that deported aliens
be sent back on a ship of the line that
brought them here. Lamport g. Holt

SECRET FACT THAT HE HAS

Truth Comes Out When He
Faints on Way to

ing the opening of the Metropolitan

cause of the young princes sudden at
tack was the fact hat he was suffer-
ing from six broken ribs and had re-
fused to take his physicians advice
and remain In bed. The prince gave a
private steeplechase exhibition two
weeks ago, Just before leaving Hot

had accepted any number of invita-
lions to dinner and the theatre, and it
was necessary for him to keep them.
Ais ideas of punctilious courtesy pre-
vented his doing otherwise. He did as
he wished.
