25 acre field he plowed early and
later as it became weedy plowed
again, this time going down IL
inches. 1t averaged 80 bushels. An
other field of 10 acres he plowed
only once and gave the usual har-
rowing and it yielded 81 bushels.
A third field sown to Russian wheat,
plowed and disced, 80 acres, aver
aged only ~ bushels, growing SO
thick that the heads were small.
One of the notable features OF
the crop this year is the remarkable
variation of the yield on adjoining
fields. On one side of road the
crop has given over thirty bushels
and on the other only fifteen, with
little apparent difference in the cul-
tivation sometimes.
The Taylor families near Pearl In
the southeast part of the county
have about 27O0 acres Of wheat, the
largest wheat section of the county.
1t averaged 20 to 22 bushels on
upland ground with good tillage but
not especial cultivation. These
farms always have high average
Of wheat and have been cropped for
twenty years, mostly in that grain.
Flowing has commenced for the
next years crop, but the dry wea-
Their has made it difficult for the
advocates of early blowing to put
their plans in operation. To Kill
chinch bugs many fields have been
burned off, method more generally
followed than ever before.

10 fill Fleming has had long expert
ence in the legislature having been a
member of both houses at various
times, and he has always had some
thing hand to work for-some-
thing in which he has been deeply in
tarested For instance. he has been in
the brewery business for a number of
years. and he has led fights in the
legislature for liquor legisla ton which
would be as little harmful to the Iegf-
innate liquor traffic as possible. He
has been interested at times in rail-
road and corporation legislation and
whenever he has made a fight his pow
err has been felt.
If he gets out of the Legislature
SOMEBODY else will have TO lead the wet
side in the liquor fights. and it viii be
difficult to find a leader for this ele-
ment with the power that Fleming
possesses. Therefore, his passing will

have to fill.

The next fifty. or even twenty five,

economic changes in this country The
call for social and economic justice is
beginning to be heard among the ranks

heard among the hosts of the weak.
The new type of justice will come in
an orderly manner-by evolution; not
revolution. 1t will be realized when
the extremes meet on the forum of

abiding when it is won through an APP
