During the past year sofge instances Of discriminatory treatment have been removed. but I re gret to say that there remain a few eases of diferential treatment adverse ta the commerce of the United States While none of these instances now appears 10 amount to undue discrimination in the sense of section of the tariff law Of August ,, la49 they are all exceptions ta that cnmplete degree af equality of tar if treatment that the department et state has consistently sought to obtain for American commerce abroad
 While the double tariff feature of the tariff law Of 1909 has been amply justi- fled by the results achieved in removing former and preventing new. undue dis crimlnations against American commerce.

Health Value Of a Whistle.

Boys should be encouraged to whis
tie. It's a good thing for the lungs
and can be made something of an &C
complishment by daily practise. To
learn to whistle unsteady one must
begin with the scales and then by
combination OF sharps and fats. After
time single song may be tried with
Ii:.no accompaniment. II iel surpris-
ing what a range Of music can be
whist!ed One can turn from bass
solo to a tenor sole ction without eff.
fort. Band music can be whistled
Any selection for the voice can be
chirped through puckered lips. 1t Is
said that. whistltng boys are seldom
troubled with bronchitis or pneum onia
Many medical men urge patients with
weak lungs to whistle as often and az
much as they possibly can without
causing positive annoyance.

Ballinger has resigned at last
and Walter L. Fisher, a Chicago
attorney, has been appointed in
his place. In accepting Balm
gers resignation President Taft
lauds his former secretary to
the skies, talks about "unscrup-
ulous conspiracies, % cruel trag-
edy' and that sort of thing, and
goes out of his way to abuse the
public press for their handling
of the doings of Ballinger. Taft
will make no. friends by such q
course. It will simply pave the
way for him to join his lame
duck, friends in 1912. But,
thank goodness, the interior de-
partment has been cleansed; at
least that's what the people be
lieve, and the people can gener-
ally be trusted.

Many letters are coming to the eX-
pertinent station regarding the adviS-
abiiijy'of sew ing COW peas. field peas
and other crops that will provide pro-
tein in place of the clover hay that
las been lost. Experience at Uni
versity Farm does not indicate the ad-
visibility of sowing very mach Of
these crops. Soy beans and cow peas
make excellent growth here, but our
climatic conditions are unusally unfa-
vorable for curing them. The stems
are very heavy and succulent, and it
is exceedingly difficult to get them
we'll cured for hay. The same trou-
BILE has been experienced in handling
field peas, though they are not as
troublesome as the soy beans and COW
peas, especially if they are sown to
gether with some grain-crop like oats.
However, oats and peas together
make a rather bulky form of hay,
which is quite difficult to cure, es-
pecially from the fact that it is prac-
tically impossible to so cock it in the
| field that it will shed water.
Another serious disadvantage in
growing peas very extensively foI
roughage is the cost of the seed. Ii
requires from two to three bushels
per acre for fairly good stand, and
the seed usually costs about $3.50 pei
bushel.
We think that millet and fod del
corn should be used very largely, this
coming season, to supply the rough
age. Fodder corn can be grown at d
cost of about $3.50 per ton, and is
worth SIS per ton for Neding wher
