FREE LIST BILL
 PASSES THE SENATE

Washington, Aug. 1.-Com- bined in the same alliance that resulted in the passage of com promise woolen tariff revision bill in the senate last week, the Democrats and Republican in- sugents of that body today pass ed a compromise farmers free list bill by a vote of 43 to 30. The original house bill first was de- feated, then reoffered in modified from by Senator Kern of Indiana. As amended and finally adopted by a vote of Az to 29.
 The senate earlier had defeat ed Senator Railev's amendment taking meats out of the free list bill. The Kern amendment re- presented the attempt to recon cile the Democratic interests with the insurgent Republicans who believed some further con- sessions should be obtained for agricultural products.
 The adoption of the compromise measure came after a narrow failure of Democratic efforts to pass the bill in its original form. But for the fact that Senator Bailey of Texas refused to sup port the bill in the shape it had passed the house, the measure would have been passed unchang- ed by the senate. AS it was, it was beaten by a tie vote of 39 to 39. Senator Bailey being the only Democrat to vote against it. The Democrats and insur- gents were ready for the defeat of the measure, While serveral of them had voted for it, it was apparently understood that if 1t was defeated it would be resur-

Senator Owens's General Criticism of Courts OkaOma Senator Be-
 Iieves in Recall.

Washington, July 31. A severe criticism of the su- preme court characterized the speech of Senator Owens of Oklahoma today, advocating the adoption of his bill provid ing for the recall of federal judges The bill provides that the judges of any federal court may be subject to re- call by resolution of congress and that district and circuit judges be eletced for four years.
 Answering opponents of the recall, Owens declared that the American electorate is abundantly conservative
 
 and moves more slowly than it's progressive representative He said: ''The people have been trained to glve the benefit of the doubt to any one assailed, and when in doubt always vote mo-"
 He contended that as the recall exists, judges will be so exemplary that no recall of a federal judges will be necessary. He argued that the recall is justified by ''rea- son and common sense. "

rected, amended by a compro- mise agreement, and again brought to a vote.
 With the Kern amendment adopted, serveral attempts were made to add other amendments to the compromise bill thus creat- ed. All feated. A free paper amendment by Senator Gore was voted down, 52 to 9. A free lemon amendent by Senator Bailey, offered earlier in the day, was again brought up but not adopted.
 The senate finally passed the free list bill with Kern amend ment, AS to 30, the vote being similar to that by which the Kern amendment was adoptbd, except that Senators Bourne, Gamble, Jones and Townsend voted against the bill and Sena- tors Gore. Piondexter and Smith (South Carolina) voted for it.

THE INTERESTING TRUST GAME.

In details (which are meager) the story that the National City Company is to be a sort of hold ing compang for the Standard Oil trust and the American Tobacco trust may be inaccurate. Essentially. it is quite indisput- ahle that the moves for reorganiz- ing those corporations will pro- ceed along the lines doing prac- tically what has been done be- fore, by methods which are sufficiently different form che old ones to serve at least during the three or four years of a prosecution.
 Then, heaven and then courts and the people permitting. a new device will give smother lease of life. And so ad infnitum, for the resources of eminent counsel are infinite.
 The National City Company is a new corporate from used by the same financial group which uses the National City Bank (the Standard Oil bank) as another from, Its creation as a medium of controlling two of the greatest trusts jointly as a cure for the activities of the same two trusts severally is what MT. Roosevelt might call delicious. De Tocque- vile long ago said, 'The remedy for democracy is more democracy That paraphrase of the ancient adage. The hair of the dog is good for the bite," may have given the money trust it's quint idea.
 If course, It IS not going to be possible for these trusts, or others, to reestablish themselves under any form which leaves them free of public control as they have been free in the past twenty years. Legislators (Sena- tor Newlands, for example) are already forward with plans for putting the government in con- troi. Public servants like La Toilette, in office, and Roosevelt, out of office, will work as fast and consistently to reorganize in- dustrial conditions Tn the inter ests of the common welfare as the lawyers of Wall Street will work to subordinate common welfare to selfish privilege. But it is well to keep ones eyes on the trust congratulations, for they are going to be thecenter of about as pretty and interesting a game as one would care to see.
 Historically, thIs is fine time to be alive. There is hardly a dull moment in it.

CARING FOR
NOTING HENS
Require Large Amount Of Feed
Containing Nitrogen, Such
ae Ot1 Neal and
Protein Feeds.
(By J. BAILEY BRUCE.)

Most people believe that II they
can force their hens to mott early they
will lay more eggs during the season,
but this Is not true. Hens that have
molted late will lay more eggs during
the winter than the early molters.
This has been shown by the most
careful experiments, but the facts are
not generally known.
Melting hens require large amount
OF feed containing nitrogen such as
oil neal, meat and other feeds rich
in protein. Noting can be forced by
cutting down the feed of hens as it
has been shown by experiments that
scantily fed hens begin melting ear
lier than those on full feed, but the
former do not finish molting much
earlier
Starved hens mott more uniformly
than others and this Ia particularly
noticeable In hens two or three years
old.
In an experiment conducted by the
Cornell experiment station It was
found that on basis Of 100 hens the
fed flock produced eggs to the value
Of $29.27 more than by the starved
flock.
The total income from all the birds
was $278 for the starved flock and
$3.50 for the fed flock, difference in
favor Of natural molting for the year
OF about $95.
A western poultryman OF long ex-
perience gives his method Of controll-
ing melting as follows:
AS soon as the hens are through
laying he turns them out In alfalfa,
feeding them dry bran only. in addi-
ton. Under this treatment they get
thin. Then he feeds them a mixed
ration o. grains and meat. giving a
light feed in the morning and all they
will eat at noon and night Under
this treatment they finish melting
quickly, get new feathers and begin
laying in September. BY October ]
they are all in good laying condition
and make profit through the fall
and winter

ROOTS OF CORN

Serve Abundant1y Their
Purposes When Soil
Is Exhausted.
(By WALTER B. LEUTZ.)

How the clover acted as a fertilizer
was not known until about fifteen
years ago. Since that time our
knowledge upon the subject has very
considerably increased and every year
now something more Is learned.
Leguminous and podbearing plants
unaided have no more ability to help
themselves to the nitrogen OF the air
under any circumstances than have
other green plants.
Certainly bacteria existing In the
soil penetrates the soft tissues OF
Young roots OF legumes and multiply
within these lively tissues so as to
form a little mass OF gelatinous sub
stance. Responding to the irritation
produced the plant builds nodular
structure about the bacterial invaders,
not unlike the formation OF a gall
consequent upon the sting OF an In
sect.
Numerous nodules may be formed
nm the roots of one plant and they
have characteristics peculiarp~t to the
snecies of plant on which they occur
