poor start in the spring.
l have found that 1t pays big re-
turns to select one acre OF the best
land to grow seed oats on each year
and to keep this crop for seed only
and to buy new seed every two
or three years to plant on this acre
plot.
Under ordinary conditions I believe
that we should change oat seed every
three or four years. for there is no
farm crop that will thrive better when
moved from one locality to another
than oats, or that will deteriorate
raster when grown on the same farm
year after year. OF course proper
seed selection will help to overcome
this tendency, but Few farmers take
that precaution.

men of this country would like to have
business more rushing and not so quiet as
it is at present. They can easily bring about
such a condition Of affairs, as it is a simple

the wages of the producers so they will
have the money to buy back more of the

A lawyer should only seek justice for
his clients. By obtaining an acquittal for
a guilty man he has defeated justice.
Suppose lawyer knows his client is
guilty, and if convicted the sentence must
be imprisonment; but he obtains a verdict
OF acquittal. The client is turned loose on
society, and commits other crimes while he
ought to have been serving time for the
first crime, is not the lawyer partly respon-
sible for his crimes?
The knowledge that they can hire great
lawyers to defend them has given encour-
agement to criminals all over our land IF

Will Call Extra Session.

Governor Wilson has announced that
Immediately after his Inauguration as
President he would call an extraordi-
nary session of Congress to convene
not later than April Is for the purpose
of revising the tariff.
To set at rest all speculation as to
what he would do with regard to tar
iff revision, the President-elect issued
the following statements:
81 shall call Congress together IN
extraordinary session not later than
April Is. I sh Ill do this no. only be-
cause think the pledges of the party
ought to be redeemed as promptly as
possible, but also because I know 1t to
be in the interest of business that all
uncertainty as to what particular
items of tariff revision are to be re-
moved as soon as possible"
Beyond this brief announcement
the Governor said he had nothing far
ther to say. Most of the opinion he
had received from public men seemed
to be in favor of an extra session, be
declared. The Governor did NOT in
tend to express himself about an ex-
ira session because the present ar.
rangement would not bring the Lew
congress into session until thirteen
months after it's election he had ex~
pected to spend more time in ascer-
tanning public opinion. With the time
to be consumed in discussion, the Gov
ernor felt that if an extra session were
not called the benefits of tariff re-
vision would be postponed practically
for two years.
