CORN AND COTTON
 NOW COMING UP

Much corn and cotton of recent planting is now coming up and is ready to receive attention. It would always be better if the corn and cotton both were har- rowed after it came through the ground, running the harrow across the rows. It is not all ways practical to use the harrow on the cotton where it is bedded. and for this reason it would be better not to bed the cotton. but to level the bed, or plant level.
 Where the land is low and wet, this plan will not be best. as the bed is necessary to keep the young cotton out of the water and prevent it's being drowned out by the spring rains. fit is practical to run the harrow across the rows of corn and cot ton, it will prove a good thing. It will loosen the ground and will also rid the field of a good deal 0t young grass and weeds. It may seem like it will be too de. structive, but experience will teach you different, and you will find that you have a good stand left.
 Be ready to meet the great bat ties you are sure to have with grass. Wet weather will most likely come along and keep you out of the young corn and cotton longer than is good for the crop, but keep things moving, so that you can be in the field every time the ground is dry enough to. cul- tivate. Whenever the ground is too wet to blow, be getting your plows. tools, gears, etc, ready to pitch into the crop at the earli- est moment, without delay. By keeping up with your work and always making preparation in advance, you will be better able to win the battle with the grass and keep your crop always grow ing. If it gets too wet to blow and stays that way too long, take up the hoe and go after the grass and weeds, anyway. Do not blow when the soil is too wet. It will be hurtful to the growing crop.
 Now is the time to get busy and keep busy until the crops are made. Close application and un- relenting energy will make a good crop in the face of lots of bad luck, sometimes.

FOR UNIFORM LABOR LAWS
Plan to Amend Constitution, Putting States on Same Plane to
 Avoid Discrimination.

Washington, April 2S.-An amend ment to the constitution which, when ratified by two-thirds of the states, would give congress the power to make uniform the hours of labor throughout the United States, is pro- posed in a resolution introduced in tho house by Representative Curley of Massachusetts.
 He contends that the difference in the hours of labor in many states, varying from 54 hours a week in Mas sachusetts to 66 hours in the South srr states, creates an "unwarranted discrimination" in favor of manufac- turers in states where the long hours prevail.
 The agreement for the suspension of hostilities between the Bulgarians and the Turks is officially confirmed. The armistice will last until April 23, and may be prolonged if peace has not been concluded in the interval.

LIBRARY AND FIRE
 BUILDING PROBABLE
-O-o

The subcommittee of the Juneau Library Committee that was appoint ed at the meeting held recently at the Governors House to confer with the fire department concerning the cree. tion of building to be occupied joint ly by the fire department and a pub lie library believe that a plan of CO operation can be devised for raising the money to construct and jointly oc- cupy such building at the corner of Main and Fourth streets in this city. The committee addressed a letter to the fire department that was consid- cred briefly Wednesday evening, and that will be considered further at the regular meeting next Wednesday.
 The letter is signed by Mrs. J. c. Mcbride, chairman; B. L. Thane, Mil ton Winn and A. B. Callahan, com mittee, and is as follows:
 "The undersigned have been select ed by the City Library Committee of the Juneau School Board for the pur- pose of determining the feasibility of erecting joint building on the lot re- served for municipal purposes at the corner of Main and Fourth streets.
 'It is the opinion of the committee that it is possible to secure in the i'm mediate future, the erection of a building which will not only serve the purposes which the fire department has so long needed, but for a city li- brary and a council chamber, and for other municipal purposes.
 ''It is the belief of the committee that these other purposes of the build ing will not only be objectionable to your organization, but will be desir- able for the reason that it will hasten the accomplishment of your plans, and for other reasons which readily sug- gest themselves.
 'If the plan as here outlined meets with the approval of your organization, we ask that you select a committee for the purpose of working out plans, and for the purpose of presenting the matter to the City Council for their approval and assistance"
