Fall Flowing Advantages.

There are sufficient advantages in fall
blowing to warrant greater amount of it
than is done by the average farmer The
practice on the college farm for several
years has beento fall pillow all Of the land
TO be planted to crops the following
spring. if possible to do SO. There have
been times. however, when for lack of
horses and work pressing that it was i'm
possible to get all Of the land fall p1owed
The crops in such instances never failed
to show the results. Fall blowing always
produces better crops. The difference is
so great that the line where spring and
fall blowing comes together is well mark
ed and can easily be 70 lowed with the
eye from a distance of the grain. Grain
on the fall blowing is, if properly handled,
free from wild oats. Fall blowing can be
worked and be ready to seed in the spring
by the time the land that has been left
for spring blowing is dry enough to stir,
consequently earlier seeding can be done
Flowing can be done as late as the 18th
of December. aud there are times when
even later in the month. even till
Christmas
The land intended for summer fallow
should be fall plowed, thus admitting a
greater amount of moisture into the SUBJ
soil. Summer fallow so handled can be
rid of the wild oats and better mulch
or seed-bed maintained. Crops depend
upon the seeded or the condition Of the
soil. If in poor condition poor crop
should be expected. and a good.seed bed.
all other conditions being equal, pro-
duces enough extra to pay for the hand.

Parcels POST

United States Senator Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., Of Oregon, introduced bill in The
Senate. which If enacted will reqnire The
Postmaster General to establish and en-
force rules .and regulations which will
give the people Of the United States rights
and privileges the United States affords
to the people of the most favored nation.,''
In explaining his hin. Senator Bourne
said itmay seem strange tozmemhers Of
the Senate that there should be posi-
bility Of legislation giving American
citizens privileges in the United States
mails hetweeu themselves equal with
those enjoyed BY residents of this couil.

dents of foreign counties. The facts are
these: Within the United States the rate
of postage OH fourth-ciass matter is is
cents pound with limit of four pounds.
The United States is party 10. a treaty
under which residents of go foreign
countries may send fourth class matter
through The United States mails Al IL

In other words, man may send a H..

pay g cents pound A Japanese re-
siding in New York can send an II pound
package to his friends in Tokyo at IL
cents, but an American in New York can
send only a pound package from New
York to Washington. and just pay is
cents pound.
believe Congress will establish
parcels post rate Of less than IL cents a
pound, and a rate very much less than
that for short hauls But whatever the
ultimate action on the question Of parcels
post, see no reason for the enactment of
this law, giving American citizens as
favorable facilities as his Government ex-
tends 10 residents of foreign countries.
Especially is this true when investigation
by the Post Office department shows that
the cost Of transporting fourth-class mat
ter is approximately II cents pound.
The passage of this bill will in no way
conflict with any subsequent legislation
on the subject Of parcels post.

In recent years it has been rare thing
that real farmer has been member OF
the United States senate For some
reason this august body has been COM
posed of lawyers and capitalists Tois
being the case more credit is due to the
governor of the great statesof Maine for
appointing TO that position, 10 succeed the
late Senator Frye, real, live, practical
farmer, in the person of Obidiah Gard.
ner an active member of the Grange,
and who for six years was the master OF
the Maine State Grange. A man whose
whole life has been devoted to practical
agriculture and one who is on record as
favoring all the important measures that
the farmer has been asking for these
many years, such as more liberal system
Of parcels post, the election of United
States senators by direct vote Of the
people and other measures that the
National Grange has from time to time
embossed. This appointment is in direc,
interest Of agriculture and every farmer
in the United States without regard to
party should feel that 10 the selection Of
Mr.. Gardner the great interest of the
farmer has been recognized.

Use OF Odd Leagths.

Tbs investigation carried on last
year by the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, cooperating with
lumber manufacturers in the South,
to determine the saving that can be
effected by using odd lengths of
lumber as well as even, has begun
to bear fruit. That investigation
showed that a material saving was
practicable, and at recent meet
ing of a southern lumber manufact
urers' association the fact was
brought out that a beginning has
been made in putting the new plan
into practice, and that an increase
in the sale of odd lengths is antici-
pated for the near future.
1t was formerly the custom, and
generally is SO still, to sell lumber
in even lengths only. Waste re-
suited from cutting off the ends of
odd lengths to make them even.
A considerable percentage of a
sawmill's output is defective.
That is, boards have had knots,
|decayed spots, or split ends, and
the defective parts are cut out.
To make an even length of what
remains, it is often necessary to cut
off a foot of good wood with the
bad, and it is wasted. The prac-
tice of marketing odd lengths as
well as even is meant to lessen this
waste. The sale of odd lengths of
lumber will frequently lessen waste
in the woods also; for example, a
log may be cut fifteen feet long
which, following the old custom,
would be cut only fourteen, and
the extra foot would he left in the
woods.
The introduction of odd lengths
meets with opposition. from many
builders who are prejudiced in
favor of even lengths simply be
canse they have never used any
other kind. Nevertheless, there
are many places in which odd
lengths are more economical than
even ones. Some manufacturers of
flooring successfully sell odd and
even lengths, thus lessening waste
in the woods, at the mill, and in
the construction of buildings.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10. 1911.


The election returns at this writing,
Wednesday morning, are very meager
and incomplete. but seem to indicate q
complete republican sweep in Cecil
county. with the possible exception Of
one Office, that Of States Attorney.
The returns from the vote in the State
are also meager, the republicans claiming
the election of Phillips Lee Goldsborougb,
which would indicate that the voters bad
repudiated German because Of the
methods of the Baltimore city gang who
forced him on the democratic ticket
against the wishes Of the rank and fill of
the party, the voters refusing TO stand
sponsor for the sort of politics served up
by Mahon and bis crowd Of crooks, the
revelations Of fraud practiced in Balti-
more at the primaries making il apparent
that the Baltimore machine could not be
trusted, but would resort to any means,
no matter how crooked, to retain their
control Of the city and get the entire
State in their grasp.
This population OF the Baltimore city
gang. il is hoped. will be the means Of
Kidding the democratic party of the
milestone that has dragged it down to q
defeat that can be charged to none
other than the Mahon bunch Of election
thieves.

Where Taft Is Popular.

A newspaper correspondent visiting
Utah shortly after President Taft had
passed through on his recent swing
around the circle declares it is a mistake
TO say that Mr.. Taft and his celebrated
veto policies are unpopular everywhere in
the west. There are spots-there is even
q whole state--in the west where Taf,
and Taflism are so popular that the senti-
ment for INSTRUMENTATION and reelection
is justly described as overwhelming.
The state is Utah which is dominated
and controlled by the Mormon church
and represented in national politics priu-
cipally by Senator Reed Smoot, who was
Senator Aldrich's first lieutenant in put
ting through the Payne Aldrich tariff.
In general way, Of course, Intelligent
men have recognized that ever since 1896
and the days of Mark Hanna there has
existed disrepuiable give aud.take alli-
auce between the bosses of The republi-
can party and the Mormon bosses. In.
asmuch as Mr.. Taft has surrounded him
self with the same republican bosses
through whom Mormonism has neeotia-
ted its deals Of protection aud immunity,
il Is possible that The Norman leaders
have thought il safe to Judge the presi.
dent BY the company be keeps.

develop in this country. says Farm Prog
ress. There is only one way to get them,
and that is to tax ourselves for them.
Build good bridges. The stone and con-
crete bridges are the only ones that are
really economical to build. Iron and
wooden bridges are too short lived.
When things get adjusted the motor
