Will Revise the Tariff.

Speaker Clark made the following statement with reference to tarfff re- vision at the present special session of congress, which apparently refers to President Taft's intimation in his speech that he was opposed to all legislation bearing on the tariff at this session with the exception of Cana dian reciprocity:
 The tariff ought to be revised from top to bottom. The people of the land so decided last November That Is their IatestI mandate. The house de- cided that it Is best to revise 1t schedule by schedule. We have made a good start on that plan. We will continue as we have begun. The country indorses what the house is doing If the Republican senate beats our bills or President Taft ve- toes them we will appeal to the coun- try and it will sustain us. We believe we are right and we are not afraid of a contest"

Root does well to fear.

DOWNING STREET, LONDON.
Il Bears the Name Of Q Clever Man
From Massachuaetta.


Downing street. London, where are
tile Brltish colonial and foreign offices
and the official residence Of the first
lord OF the treasury and where cabinet
councils are held. perpetuates the name
Of q clever man from Massachusetts.
Those were the days before the Fourth
Of July had any significance in Ameri'
can annals. and George Downing. the
flrst scholar In the flrst public school IN
Massachusetts and the flrst graduate
sent out by Harvard college. came to
England and became a chaplain IN
Cromwell's army.
BY n remarkable stroke Of fortune
he was sent to represent England at
The Hague when Europe was trem'
bling before oliver. and during three
distinct eras In Engand's history be
held the office of British ambassador
at the Dutch court. He was as popu'
lar or rs clever under the Merry Mon
arch as under the protector and the
commonwealth. and II came to pass In
the reign of Charles II. that the man
from Massachusetts, was granted a
great tract Of land at Westminster.
where he built huge mansions and laid
out Downing street
To this day Downings street is
Downing street still. and, though
George Downing Is forgotten. there Is
no name In the British empire which
is more familiar to us than his.-St

Harrow for Moisture.

"If were to come on to your farm and
set $50 teams to work for week hauling
water on to q quarter section at the rate
of four tons day, would then only put
on as much water as evaporates In a week
when there Is good moisture content In
the soil" This Is the striking illustra-
ton that President Worst Of the North
Dakota Agricultural College gives of the
tremendous amount Of water that escapes
by evaporation. He then concludes: "a
thorough narrowing will stop this evapo-
ration and save that amount OF water. ="

Lime should not be applied immedi-

are more likely to be affected with scab
should such an application be made.

Lime should not be applied immedi-
ately preceding crop of potatoes. They
are more likely to be affected with scsb
should such an application be made.
METHOD OF APPLYING LIAE.
Although lime applied as top dress
ing on grass land Is often beneficial, 1t
proves most effective in correcting most
of the faults of soils needing lining II II
can be applied to the ploughed surface
and thoroughly mixed with the soil. The
autumn or early spring is usually best,
but lime may be applied without hesita-
ton at any season of the year when the
land is not occupied by crops and when
it can be ploughed. If manures or fer
tilizers containing ammonia or organic
nitrogen are to be used in connection
with lime the latter should be put on and
incorporated with the soil before the ma
nure or fertilizers are applied. Lime
should always be applied broadcast, and
as soon as possible after it is spread upon
the rough furrow it should be deeply
worked into the soil. For this purpose
either the disk, cutaway or spring toothed
barrow will be most effective. To apply
by hand is disagreeable, especially in the
case of the finest and dryest forms OF
lime. A machine distributor or ma
uure spreader should be used If possible,
and the extent to which the lime will fly
into the air when distributor Is used
will be much reduced by an apron of
heavy burlap attached to the bottom of
the hopper and extending to the ground.
QUANTITY OF LIME NEEDED.
The amount of lime needed under diff
ferent conditions varies from few hun
dred pounds to several tons, but an aver
age of about one ton of good lime to the
acre will usually be sufficient. If grades
Of line are used which contain 30 per
cent or less of calcium oxide, larger
quantities will be required. Such appli'
cations as have been suggested will not
be called for second time.
Smaller applcations-perhaps from three
hundred to six hundred pounds-once in
two to four years, will be preferable to
very heavy applications at longer inter
vals; if basic Stag be freely used as
source of phosphoric acid, it is probable
that second application of lime will in
most cases be unnecessary. w. P.
