DEFENSE MADE BY LAWN SHARP
 IF TARIFF BILL
Replies to Questions as to This or That Duty Not Convincing to Messrs. Bristow and Cummins, the Interrogators
ASSOCIATED PRESS D1spATcHl


 WASHINGTON, July 25.-SenatOr Williams of Mississippi, said in the tariff debate today that the democrats had found it difficult to deal logically with the tariff because it had been placed on stilts for years by republican protection. This prompted Senator Cummins to ask why the democrats would not cut off a little of both suited legs. Williams replied that they were afraid Ito kill the poor thing or make it walk straight all at once"
 You have put the county on stilts" said Williams, addressing the republi cans. we cannot reduce the duties in one bill all we would like to on account of the chaotic artificial conditions you have created. We can not run the thread of logic through this bill for that very reason.
 Senator Bristow, discussing the al- legged discrepancy in the duty on potato starch with none on potatoes, asked Senator Williams why the democrats put a duty on rice and not on potatoes. Williams declared one reason was that the republicans began the high duty on rice and the democrats could not take all the duty off al once; further, rice is not such an everyday food" as potatoes.
 Why do you put duty on bana- nas?" Bristow asked.
 First, said Williams "because it is not a basic article of food; second, be- cause the banana trade in this country is absolutely controlled by the United Fruit company which is also buying up banana lands abroad Again, the tax made is so small it could not pos sibly affect the retail price and the fruit trust would have to pay it.
 BristOw finally declared that in the pending bill the democrats had delib- erately and outrageously discriminated against the farmer and in favor of the manufacturer.'
 Does the senator mean to say asked Williams that the democrats of the house and senate deliberately got up a scheme to injure the American far mer?"
 "I do not like to attribute to the sen ator from Mississippi and his col leagues such an unearthIy purpose" replied BristoW but I say they framed a bill which does.'

of these countries, where only scanty
and coarse heritage exists, manifest
their great value in making other
wise worthless land bring in profit,
able returns.
Much of the quilted land and waste
hillsides of this country could be
utilized profitably in the production OF
sheep. Many prominent farmers have
proved this to their highest satisfac
ton. Much of the land which now
grows reeds and other coarse vegetar
ton can be restored to profitable till
age by the use of sheep. Fortunately
the sheep is a Illuminating animal and
with the compound stomach can
make use of much of the coarse grass
and weeds which thrive on these de-
pleted SOILS
In European countries where sheep
raising is carried on extensively and
usually profitably, little concentrated
feed is used, except through the flush,
ing and Landing season. During other
periods hay, grass and roots form
their mainstay. Amy farmer who is
willing to give to sheep the same
amount of intelligent care that he
gives to other livestock will find them
not only profitable. but good soil i'm,

large areas of otherwise waste land.
