ton Governor Blease was raked fore
and aft and bitterly arraigned IN the
speech of Senator Waller.
Ready to Fight. Again.
Senator Waller, who was a Con-
federate soldier, stated that he had
fought once and lived on cowpeas.
and he could do the same again. He
said this was a crisis and called on
every one to stand up for the welfare
OF the State and assert the rights OF
the Senate. He denounced "a man
who attempted to rise to greatness at
the cost OF his countrys ruin" plain
~ referring to the Governor. The
venerable Senator displayed much
feeling and spoke plainly and to the
point.
At one point in the speech Senator
Strait interrupted Senator Waller
and asked "if an irresistible BODY
comes In contact with an immova-
bic body, what would be the rcsult?"
to which the Greenwood Senator re-
sponded, quick as a fash "No one
but a fool would bring two such
bodies together" and Senator Strait
TOOK his seat amid laughter, while
the Greenwood Senator finished his
speech.
senator Waller closed by calling on
the senate to assert it's preference
ana put ourselves on record, and let
future history know where we
stand"
Senator Clifton then offered reg
olution that the ,enate rescind its
part Of the agreement to adjourn
sine die, which Senator Appel moved
to lay on the table. This motion was
lost 13 to II.
By the same vote the Senate
agreed to the Clifton resolution to
take recess until March 10, having
changed the original, which was May
2S. After more wrangling, roll calls,
speeches, etc, the Senate took a re-
cess until 4.30 p. M, and two min
utcs later followed the action of the
House in adjourning sine die

A WARNING TO MANY
Some Interesting Facts Regadial
Health Statistics

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the condi-
ton OF the kidneys.
The physician in nearly alI cases of
serious illness, makes a chemical an
alysis OF the patients urine. He knows
that unless the kidneys are doing their
work properly, the other organs cah-
not be brought back to health and
strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused In any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health
statistics, Bright's disease which lis
really an advanced form of kidney
trouble, caused nearly ten thousand
deaths in 1910. in the state of New
York alone. Therefore, it behooves us
to pay more attention to the health
of these most important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as a kidney
remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great Kidney, Liver and Bladder
Remedy.
The mild and healing influence of
this preparation is soon realized. 1t
stands the highest for its remarkable
record OF cures.
Il you feel that your kidneys re-
quire attention. and wish a sample

Swamp-Root is sold by every drug

The above table shows that the
a-erage results from a two years
trial on the three sub-experiment sta
tons, Edgeley, Dickinson and Willis
ton, gave 37.S bushels more tubers per
acre from planting large entire pota-
toes than from the ordinary two eye
pieces. The difference in the amount
Of seed used, however, was twenty
bushels or slightly more per acre,
which leaves the balance in favor OF
the large tuber rather small. The
price is usually enough greater al
planting time than at the digging sea-
son to more than Offset this advantage,
The results are interesting in that
they show that under dry land con
ditions even those minor features
which tend to stimulate the early
growth of a crop have an advantage
not observed under humid condi-
tions.
The quantity of seed per acre will
depend entirely upon the size OF the
seed pieces and the distance apart
of planting. 1t ranges from eight to
twenty bushels per acre. 1t is poor
economy to plant long distances apart
merely to save seed.
Maturity Of the seed seems to have
an important bearing on productive
ness. Potatoes not quite fully mature
frequently give the large yield. This
probably due to the keeping quail
IS Of the seed. It is supposed that
'ly mature potatoes undergo some
Biological change when stored, and
I this change is detrimental. The
nges are more rapid in mature than
immature tubers. hence the lessened
!eld.
1t pays to grow the potatoes to be
used for seed on heavy soil on ac-
count of the larger yields secur id. This
probably accounts for the great popu-
larity of Red river valley potatoes in
the south. Something of the same re-
suits may be secured by growing the
seed under a heavy mulch of straw.
This has been proved by many trials
in both this country and in England

No harm is done by coating the cut
surfaces with land plaster.
If for any reason it is desired to
keep the cut seed for several days,
it may be done by pouring water
on the ground on the north side of
a building, then place the cuttings on
the moist ground and over with a
heavy canvas. Seed may be kept firm
and in good condition for several days
in this way. 1t may be necessary to
use some such scheme in case of heavy
rains or disagreeabIe weather.

ADVICE ABOUT
SEED POTATOES
SIZE or THE POTATO is NOT AS
IMPORTANT As THE sELEc-
TON SAYS PROF. ]. il. sHEP-
PERp. AoRIcuLTuRlsT AT THE
A. c.

The size OF the seed potato is not
as important as the selection, says
Prof. j.. H. shepperd, agriculturist at
the Al. G, in q recent bulletin. A
medium sized taber is as good for
seed purposes as q large one from
the same hill. It has been found that
when large. medium and small po-
tatoes were planted whole, the crop
decreased in proportion to the size
of the tubers planted. This varies
with different varieties. Yet the
greatest net profits were not secured
from the largest potatoes as the extra
yield did not equal the greater quanti-
ty Of seed required. Sixteen stations
have reported similar tests and all
agree with the preceding statement.
This would be sufficient to settle the
question of what sized seed to use.
This does not however, favor the
selection Of small or even medium
sized seed from the bin; there is no
surer way Of running the crop out.
The size of cut seed pieces should
depend upon the variety and upon the
fertility and culture of the soil. Pieces
should be cut to weight and not to
number Of eyes. On good, well pre-
pared soil small pieces are satisfac-
tory, but they should be planted clos
err than large ones. Unfayorable sea-
sons favor large sizes. Pieces weigh
ing about two ounces win be found
satisfactory under ordinary conditions.
A crop grown from large pieces will
mature slightly ahead OF one grown
from small cuttings.
The results that we have secured in
trials at three Of our substations in
planting whole large, whole small and
two eye piece average tuber cuttings
indicate that under dry land conditions
there may be more advantage in plant
ing whole potatoes than under those
prevailing where the trials quoted
above from the sixteen stations were
made.

FOR UTAH DAY
TAKE DEFINITE SHAPE

The joint press committee Of the
Utah Development league, the Utah
Newspaper association and the Utah
Press association held a meeting at
the numerical club yesterday to hear
the secretary s report on preparations
for the celebration OF Utah day, which
will be April 25.
1t was shown in the report that let

giving all required data had been sent
to every school teacher in the state,
outlining programmes appropriate for
the occasion. Responses show that
great interest is being manifested in
the coming event throughout the state.
The committee selected a tentative
list of fifty speakers, who, as repre-.
sentatives Of the Utah Development
league, will be assigned to different
cities, where they will deliver addresses
on Utah. AS soon as the list has been
definitely passed upon and approved,
the names of the speakers and their as
