THE IMPORTANCE
 OF PREPARATION
john II. Page, Agricultural COmmis. siOncr, Advises the Farmers to
 Flow We'll and Re.HarrOw.

Good preparation of the land is half the battle. Plow well, harrow and re- harrow until a perfect seed bed is ob- tained. The preparation of the land is the first fight to make this season for better crops
 We are not in the corn belt because we have not given proper attention to live stock farming If bigger corn crops help produce better live stock more live stock means bigger corn crops. For better live stock plant good seed prepare a good seed bed, utilize every available bit of manure and humus making material, cultivate often and shallow, and study plan of rotation that will build up your soil. Our corn crops are small not so much corn but the way we handle our land. Get the land ready.
 One of the most difficult and im portant points in growing a crop of cotton is the getting of a good stand. On heavy land the task is harder. While preparing for work, see to it that your planters are in condition to do good work You cannot afford to have poor stand from careless planting. The preparation of the soil for cotton crop is of the greatest importance. It only insures better stand. but decreases the amount of cultivation required by the crop later on, and finally insures the farmer of more cotton. And that is the re- ward for all the care and work. Deep breaking and blowing under of or ganic matter should be the rule ill the spring for cotton or corn. Then there is no crop grown where liberal use of high grade commercial fertilizer pays better than on cotton, but do ! not get the fertilizer craze. Get humus (decaying organic matter) restored through the growth of legumes and feeding it to get manure.
 Deep blowing. thorough preparation and heavy fcrtiliZing arc all neces- sary to grow good truck crops In all cases uses goo dseed. It will be cheaper to pay a good price than to plant those of poor quality. Then ar range some seed plots and grow your own seeds.
 | The shoulders of the stock are ten der from the winters rest, and the mules will need attention to prevent galling It is a good thing to bathe 1 the shoulders with alum water, made by dissolving alum in hot water, after starting to work

MORALS AND WAGES

l The problem of Women's wages is one that cannot be ignored says the Memphis Commercial Appeal. In five states vice commissions have been in- vestigating existing conditions. In Chicago and in Philadelphia the most serious probes have been entered into this issue.
 There is something to be said on both sides of the question. Morals and Wages cannot logically be linked to- gether. There can never be consis- tent equation written between wages and virtue, whether of men or of wo- men. The beginnings of the down ward path art far more often the easy way of pleasure than the rugged road of necessity.
 In the worlds history vice and sin have been more frequently found in the homes of the rich than in the novels of the poor
 Brisset, to whom writings and con- duct the masacres of the Tulleries on August 10, 1792, have been principally 1 aseribed. exclaimed in defending him. of my dwelling and see whether you can reproach me With dissipation ol 1 frivolity For two years I have not been near a theatre.''
 The man whose starch moralit! will not allow him to witness trag edies in the theatre may possibly b. permitted to witness them ill real life but the point he intended to convey was that the intense simplicity il which he lived precluded the idea O crime
 Vice moro frequently turks beneath the silken sunshade than it does il the oren sunlight.
 That women are inadoQuatcly paid that they receive barely enough t l keep body and soul together is pitt fully true, but even in view of this the woman who prizes her virtue i above all else in this world will work ] her fingers to the bone before she will yield it. It is rather the temp 1 tation of wealth than the bleakness o | poverty which lures a girl to hel downfall. The lure of a good time is ] the impclling influence nine times as compared with ono instance where i the struggle for d living offers a suS- gestior of wrong.
 As said above, however. the problem of womans wages is one that can not be ignored. Her status in the 1 labor market must be determined, not only that she may he justly compcn- Sated, but that the masculine worker ! shall not be subjected to unfair and unequal competition. The problem is a difficult one. and it's solution must rcco snize practical as well as thcore- ! tical lines.
