SCORE
At TRIAL TODAY

Chicago, Jan. 81. Steiner G. Lang
her, margin clerk for the Hammond
Packing Co, subsidiary of the Ma
tional Packing Co, under cross-ex-
animation at the trial of the ten Chi
cago packers. today read a long list
of shipments showing the weights,
margins and selling prices Of beef
sent from the Chicago, St Joseph,
Mo-, Kansas City and Omaha plants
of the National Co. to eastern cities.
The period covered from 1907 to
1910 and the prices ranged from to
SA cents a pound. In several in
stances he referred to where there was
a difference of over cent a pound in
the prices of dressed meats sold in
eastern cities the same day,
BY these comparisons the defense
endeavored to refute the charges of
the government that the test cost and
margin system used by the alleged
packers combination was uniform and
played an important part figuring the
selling prices of fresh beef. The wit
ness produced fred books" in which
the average sales and margins were
kept.

This was Tillmars only comment
1t had been reported earlier in the
day that he would make detailed
reply. Watterson in the meantime is-
sued another statement in which he
said:
In my letter to Tillman I promised
proof of any statement made by me
which might be disputed. Governor
Wilson denies had any authorization
from him or any agent of his to raise
money for his campaign. l have proof
that / not only had the authorization.
but l actually raised considerable
money. Be- ....
Il hold myself ready to furnish this
proof to Tillman at once if he'll do
me the honor personally to call upon
me, as I'm confined to my hotel and
cannot call upon him. If Tillman has
a single averment after inspecting that
this proof is either equivocal or in
sufficient propose that Wilson uame
two confidential friends, naming two,
the four to name fifth, and this court
to determine the issue between US.
Il must insist this be done without
delay as I'll have to leave for Wash

Senator Tillman later dictated the
following:
Senator Tillman declined to be In

The issue is now between Wilson and
Watterson and they must settle II for

he did not propose to say anything

NO EXTRA
POLICEMEN
TILL FALL
COUNCIL NOT in FAVOR OF IT
Claiming No Need For Them
During Summer

Americas will have no additions to
its police force until fall. according
to the action taken by council at it's
last meeting, when the plan to add
three policemen to the force was turn
ed down.
When the matter came up for con-
sideration from the police committee,
some discussion of it was had before
vote was taken. The gist of this
was that there is no need during the
summer for the extra policemen sug-
gested. For this reason a motion was
made and passed by unanimous vote
that the matter be postponed for fur
Their consideration until fall.
The cost of the installation of ad-
ditional policemen would be consid-
cradle, and this, of course, was a de-
termining factor in the matter 1t
was thought advisable not to incur
additional expense in this particular
unless matters made such step nee
essory. The consensus of opinion
among the board OF aldermen was
that there is no vital need of addi-
tional policemen at this time

acres and so would benefit not only
themselves, but every person in the
country.
For example, Germany learner
nearly geenration ago the tremen-
dous value of the sugar beet as a crop
to be used in rotation with cereals
and the cultivation of this crop has
been encouraged in all possible ways,
until Germany now produces half Of
the entire world product of beet su-
gar. In the United Safes the Guilt
walton of his crop has increased very
greatly but it is judged solely by its
direct return, without any cOnsidera-
ton of the indirect benefits in in
creasing the yield of other crops, al
though these indirect results are the
more valuable of the two. In fact,
the great increase in the acreage
yield of Germany's crops has taken
place since the general introduction
of the sugar beet as a crop to be used
in rotation one year in four-that is,
since the early eighties.
Il believe, however, that the Amer
lean farmer is gradually awakening
to the value of the methods which
have put Europe so far ahead of us
in getting the greatest returns from
the soil. The value of crop rotation
and the use of the beet is shown
by the fact that through it's culiva-
ton in rotation with wheat, oats
barley, rye and potatoes in Germany
their farmers secure from the land
they devote to these five crops an an
nual yield worth $900,000,00O more
than our farmers secure from like
area devoted to the same crops. If
from our total area devoted to these
five crops our farmers secured as
great yield as do the German farm
ers, our farmers would be richer by
81, 400, 100000 a year. Deplorable and
unwelcome as is the increased cost
of living clouw, it may still develop
a silver lining, if it brings our farm
ers to appreciate the need of meth
DDS which will enable them to work
their land to its full efficiency, and "a
the same time conserve its future
productiveness. There is no reason
why we cannot equal or surpass what
Germany has accomplished through
the careful application of crop rota-
ton. incidentally by giving more
attention to the most valuable of all
rotation crops, we can also produce
our own sugar.
