The Tariff Commission Gill.

(New York Tribune).
Congress will do sensible and poll

sion law at this session The republic
can party is now definitely committed
to the plan of scientific revision Of the
tariff by schedules. 1t intends to ap-
ply the principle which the last repub-
licaa nationa! platform laid down and
which was laid down in many earlier
rational platforns-that OF offsetting
the differential In the cost Of produc-
ton here and abroad-in the only
manner In which the differential can
be accurately measured and fairly
counterbaianced. In all recent revisions
congress has had to work more or less

Crop. Amons Fruit Trees.

The large majority Of California fruit
growers do not grow marketable crops
between the trees, says a recent bulle-
tin of the United States department OF
agriculture. They believe in clean Gull
ture except where leguminous crops are
used to renovate and fertilize the soil
From thc standpoint Of the large COM
mercial orchard and the well-to-do
proprietor this practice has much to
recommend it. The planting of such
an orchard Is regarded as a long-tim
investment. Little il any returns are
expected for the first few years, but
when the trees approach maturity and
are in full bearing the anticipated
profits are supposed to compensate the
owner for all the lean years. Any treat
ment, therefore, which tends to rob
the soil OF its plant food when the trees
are young or to retard their growth
is pretty certain to lessen the yields and
the consequent profits in later years
Prof. E. ]. Wickson, director OF the CAL
nornia experiment station, says:
"All intercultures are a loan made by
the trees to the orchardist. The term
may be long and the rate of interest
low. but sooner or later the trees will
need restitution to the soil of the plant
food removed by intercropping."
Notwithstanding all this. the poor
man must needs make the loan or his
children may starve, says the bulletin.
The settler on a small tract set out to
young trees can not AFFORD. IL his means
arc limited, to wait four or five years
for the first returns. He must produce
crops between the rows and the Ques-
ton for him to consider Is how this
can be done with the least possible in
jury to the trees. A plentiful supply Of
water and a deep. rich soil are the es-
ssntials Of intercropping. In districts

MORE SEED. MORE CORN.
Mills County Experiment. Farm Favers
a -

Mills County Experiment Farm tavore
4 to Kernels.
Last spring at planting time men
drove over the county and took sam
pies OF corn that the farmers were
planting. This corn was planted care
fully. three kernels to hill. SA feet
apart. 1t was planted in four differ
ent parts Of the ground set apart for
the experiment work at the county
farm, and there We're "a hills in each
one Of these plots. They were dis
tributed about so that all samples had
an equal chance-rich or poor parts
of the field not affecting the average.
In addition to the samples from
the planter boxes of the farmers.
seed was secured from number Of
the seed houses, and also from indi-
vidual growers turnout the state.
These plots were planted in the same
manner as was the seed corn from
the farmers.
The tabulated results show that
the seed house varieties averaged liz
bushels less per acre than did the
corn from the farmers. The moral is,
buy your seed corn from your neigh
bors.
An interesting part OF Professor
I Mosher's talks was with reference to
the number of kernels that should be
planted per hill. Most of his hearers
seemed to disagree with him in his
contention that 4 or kernels should
be planted in order to insure a stand
of at least three kernels per hill.
Mr.. Mosher. however. showed by
the records OF Ames, covering as ex-
periments in % counties over a period
OF five years. that the planting OF 4
and kernels per hill had resulted in
bigger yields than the planting of a
lesser number.
Under the heading. Individual Ear
Test is an illustration OF what a
single bad ear can do. In one lot
one ear, supposed TO be as good as
the others. indicated a yield of only
six bushels 10 the acre. Other ears
yielded s. bushels. A bad ear mixed
in with the good is a mischief worker.
II planted by itself. the stand could
be replaced. Shelled in with other
ears. it leaves spots here and there
! in the field. representing loss to the
farmer, whether he repants or let's
his corn stand. either way.
Professor Mosher estimates that
Mills county this year has 100000 acres
OF corn. If by n little more care in
both planting and cultivating the yield
can be increased ten bushels to the
, acre. which is not unreasonable. it
would mean g. million more bushels of
corn for Queen Mills.
Two different lots Of corn We're
planted. ranging from one to five kerr
nels per lil: and as Will be SEEN the
thicker planted corn yielded the
heaviest per acre.
