OF VIRILlTY

The New York Evening Post, in an
article on former Senator Edmunds,
who is low in Pasadena, Cal, says
that the veteran statesman still reads
the Congressional Record daily, fol-
lowing it as closely as he did when he
was in the United States senate him.
self. This report in itself d~iscredits
the idea that the senator is feeble.
The man who can wade through the
Congressional Record when he is not
obliged to is a perfect glutton for work
and his constitution is in good shape,
for the Congressional Record as a
daily habit is as hard on the individual
constitution as it's contents are upon
that national constitution which is so
dear to Joe Bailey.
Outside of the one fact stated, the
article referred to gives no evidence
that Senator Edmunds Is not in the
best of mental health.-St. Paul

Perhaps the greatest discovery of

Perhaps the greatest discovery OF
modern time is the rediscovery OF
Mendel's law relating to the ~reproduc-
ton of unit characters in life, such,
for example, as white and black in
sheep, beared and beardless in wheat,
wrinkled and smooth in the corn
kernel. The direct progeny of any
cross shows only the dominant though
always tainted with the recessive char
acter, but in the second generation the
individuals are one-half tainted, one
fourth pure dominants and o~ne-fourth
recessive. Thus the progeny Of a pure
sane mother and an insane father are
sane and apparently normal, but
tainted with insanity; whereas If both
parents are tainted, then as an average
the children are one-fourth insane, one
fourth purely sane, and o%ne-fourth sane
but tainted. Thus insanity is the re-
cessive or hidden character.
Albinism in corn is an interesting
and instructive unit character. Every
farm boy has observed the white corn
plant, which now and then appears in
the field; but how many have observed
that this is a fatal character? The pure
albino in T always dies without pro-
ducing seed.
What think you is the fatal character
in the mind of man? The character
that tells man he is not his brothers
keeper; that though he be his chill
dren's father he is not the guardian of
their birthright, of the possibility of
their future prosperity; but that he
liveth unto himself and for his time
alone. The fatal character in the mind
of man is selfishness-fatal, because
selfishness leads not to success but to
ultimate failure. .
This is a law as fixed as gravity,
always and eternal. Because of our
viewpoint, we often deceive ourselves,
but the law remains true. Though
millions believed for thousands of
years that the earth was fiat, twas
never true. So long as man held the
earth on which he lived as the center
of the universe, encircled by sun and
stars, progress in astronomical science
was impossible because his fundamen-
tai premise was never the truth.
Success is won by service, not by
selfishness; and this law abides,
thoush millions may hold the contrary
view.
There is that scattereth, and yet
~increaseth; and there is that with.
holdeth more than is meet, but it tend.

have obeyed the first two, but the last
two we have disobeyed in America for
three hundred years. In 1913 the entire
population of the United States was
less than the present population OF
one state. When my W father was
born there were only II million people
in this country, while the census OF
1910 found go millions in contiguous
continental United States. Yes, we
have muItiplied-multiplied by 500 per
cent during the time of one life; but
have we ~replenished the earth? No.
We have taken from the earth from
Virginia to Dakota, but We have not
replenished it with any significance
except on small areas used for market
gardens neal the cities. Have we sub
dued the earth? No. On the contrary
we have been subdued by it-driven
away by the inanimate earth and fore
ed to surrender back to nature mil
lions Of acres of farm lands now ag-
riculturally abandoned.
The knowledge is common that old
land Is poorer than new land. Why?
Because of the failure to replenish the
earth. There are ten essential ele-
ments OF plant food and seven Of these
must be furnished by the soil for all
cereal crops, but who knows which OF
these elements may limit the crop
yield on this or that soil?
On Illinois land worth $3.50 al acre
the addition Of one element Of plant
food has changed the yield of wheat
from "a bushels to ssh bushels per
acre in the tenth year from the begin
ming of the experiment. On a differ
ent type of soil a different element
has changed the yield of corn from 1877
bushels to 6S.7 Bushels per acre in the
fifth year of the experiment; and on
another type OF soil a still different
plant-food element has changed the
yield OF corn from 5 bushels to 70.S
bushels per acre in the second year OF
the experiment. In all these cases
the yield mentioned Is the average OF
four separate and distinct tests.
A few years ago i had a letter from
Professor Kerr, written as editor Of an
agricultural journal. He wrote, in
effect, as follows:
"The farmers generally report that
they cannot grow wheat any more, but
/ think they a II they treat their
soil right"
And Professor Kerr's opinion is cor
rect in this matter. Tin fact when
Professor Kerr forms an opinion 1t is
usually correct, as ten thousand stu
dents will bear witness.)
Why should the average yield of
wheat in Dakota be only IL bushels
per acre? Some say it is because
farmers grow wheat year after year
on the same land, but such answer is
made in ignorance and with no ade-
quate knowledge Of the available facts
bearing upon the problem. The aver
age farmer follows no such practice,
and il mere rotation of crops would
solve the problem there would be no
abandoned farm lands in the United
States, for in most places they have
gone down to abandonment under good
crop rotations.
