Answered by R. G. Doneghue.
The water which crops use is held
In the minute spaces between the soil
particles. When these spaces are very
small the water rises gradually from
the lower soil layers to the upper
one If the soil is compact the
spaces are smaller and the water rises
to the surface of the ground and evap-
crates, and more water rises to take
its place. When a soil is cultivated
the spaces are made very much larger
than they are when the soil is COM
pact and water will not rise in these
large spaces. 1t rises until it reaches
the cultivated layer and as it car go

Would you recommend corn fodder?
Which is the best kind, and how much
should be sown per acre?
Answered by Prof. J. HI. Shepperd.
Corn fodder produces the cheapest,
roughage that can be grown In this
state in my opinion. It also has the
advantage Of cleaning the land from
noxious weeds and Of putting 1t In
good mechanical Condition as the re-
suit Of cultivation which the corn re-
ceives. Any corn that will reach the
ripen stage the first week Of Septem-
Der and produce a good yield is suit
able for growing in this climate. For
the southern half of the state Golden
Dent and Northwestern Dent are the
most satisfactory. In the northern
part, Of the state Mercer or Gehu will

WHAT WASHINGTON'S
S0LONS ARE DOING
LARGE Amount of Business Done
During Second Week: Small
Amount Spent.

Olympia, Wash.-The second week
of the twelfth session of the Leg sla-
ture of Washington goes on record as
having transacted the largest amount
of state business and spent the small
est amount OF state funds of any pre-
vious session since statehood. There
has not been a serious wrangle on the
floors OF either house and no bitter
ness displayed on the part OF the
members. The insurgents recently
elected are pursuing a conservative
course and are being guided in the
unimportant measures by the more
experienced members. Should the old
line Republicans attempt to spend u
lavish amount for maintenance OF the
state institutions, raise legislative sal
aries unnecessarily or indulge in need
less extravaganza, the insurgents are
pledged to vote solidly in the interests
of economy and to keep the expendi-
lures within the states revenues.
Considerable Business Transacted.
Legislation actually enacted includes
the election of United States sena-
tor: instructing the Washington rep
resentatives in Congress to work for
the selection of San Francisco as the
site of the Panama canal fair; pass
bills recalling state officers and city
officials upon protest OF a certain mum
her of voters: killed a bill to dispense
with robes for judges of the supreme
and superior bench; appropriated
100000 for legislative expenses and
$4,000 for emergency printing; APP
propriated $4,000 for national guard
deficiencies; appropriated s4S,OOO to
buy university campus; passed resolu-
tions memoralizing Congress to reject

restrict unlimited immigration OF I'M

cago recommending the measure. II
was pointed out that several sessions
ago the Legislature was convr ED OF
the brutalizing effect OF pubhc execu.
tons and made it imperative that
such punishments could only be in
flicted at the state penltentiary and
in the presence OF only such officials
as were necessary. An effort to in
definitely postpone the bill was lost
and there is every prospect that it
will go through with. flying colors.
Combine State Offices.
In the Senate there is a bill already
in committee following out the recon
mendation of Governor NJ. E. Hay
that the offices of lieutenant-governo
auditor, insurance commissioner and
commissioner of public lands be abol-
ished upon expiration OF the terms OF
the present officials. 1t is proposed
to combine the work OF the auditor
with that of the secretary OF state and
the work of the land commission with
the tax commission's work
Empioyes' Corporation Bill.
1t is believed that no measure will
engage the serious attention OF the
Washington Legislature more or al
feet the interests of the state at large
more than the employees compensa
ton bill. The commission appointed
by Governor Hay has submitted its
report with a draft OF the bill
Arguments advanced for the passage
OF the bill are based on statistics
showing that sums OF money pad ~
the employer for employees liability
insurance have been little, il any, in
excess OF 20 per cent OF the amounts
that have actually reached the injured
employe or his family. In Washington
the sum paid for liability insurance
last year is SAID to have been more
than 100000, of which nearly 100000
was Absolutely wasted.
Antitrust Law Proposed.
Representative Hugh c. Todd, OF
Whitman County, has introduced bill
in the House to prohibit trusts and
combinations in restraint OF trade.
The proposed law is based upon the
California. statute as amended in 1909,
which has been proved valid in the
courts of that state.
Under the terms of Mr.. Todd's bill,
labor is not commodity and labor
unions are specifically exempted from
the operations of the proposed law.
Violators of the antitrust law are
subject to fine of not less than $50
or more than $1,000. or to be impris-
oned not less than six months or more
than a year Both fine and imprison
ment may be imposed and each days
