BUILDING UP The SOIL

The National Soil Fertility league
Is doing a good work and an entirely
aisinterested one. It has nothing to
sell. 1t wants to see higher and bet
ter crops raised all over this country,
because 1t realizes that ali other lines
CT business have their roots in the
soil as well, and when 1t Yields abund-
antly prosperity is general
Just as present the league is nut
ting forth the argrment for the Lever
Agricultural Extension bill, which
would greatly enhance the possibilities
of the extension work of the arri
cultural colleges, multiply the number
of county crop experts. and provide
federal aid for the same.
In its latest publication the league
summarizes needed legislation which
it is heartily supporting, and for
which 1t urges support, as follows:
l. Pass the Lever agricultural ex.
tension BILL
2. For state aid and federal aid
for good roads.
B. For the consolidating of rural
SShpoto, PioPCiiJ Win a
strong, well-paid teaching force and a
recast course of study emphasizing
agriculture and home economies.
4. To establish a national bureau
of marketing to aid in equalizlng dis
tribution, as outlined in u S. senate
bill No. AZ.
s. For simplified system of farm
leans that will enable the farmer to
borrow at the lowest possible rate of
interest.
6. To encourage cooperation in pro-
cuction and in buying and selling and
thus eliminate unnecessary expense.
7. To encourage and promote an in

BUYING MEXICO.

Finance, a Cleveland publication
We'll known in business and CONNER
cial circles, has a leading editorial
article in favor of the suggestion that
the United States government pur-
chase the states in the northern part
OF Mexico. including all that land
lying north of the twenty-sixth degree
OF latitude. 1t has been suggested that
the United states pay Mexico $780,
100000 for this land This would In
olude such important states as Chi
huahua, Sonora and Lower California
II is argued that these states are now
occupied largely by Americans, and
the. people residing there would wei
come American rule. Many millions
|of American capital are invested in
these states in various mining and
other enterprises. It IS further ar
gued that if tl9 United States should
purchase these states and give them
q territorial government, American
men and American capital would
flock there in great quantities with
in very few years. There would be
SO rapid DEVELOPMENT that these
states could be admitted to the Amer
lean union and would add very great
ly to our wealth and prestige. They
would serve as an outlet for many of
our people, who want to do pioneer
ing. In Lower California we could
Guild another state as rich and as
famous as southern California.
There is no question that the sale
of this country to the United States
by the republic of Mexico should be
splendid thing for that distracted
country. Most of the revolutions, of
which Mexico has many, are started
in these northern states. Whether
the United States should burden itself
with responsibility for them is an
other matter. For a generation at
least they would be liability rather
than an asset.

Got the Worst at il.

Galesburg Republican-Reg A
representative of the Chicago Record
Herald is attending the Elks conven-
ton in Rock Island and he is the one
who reported the hearing on the
Roosevelt scandal case In Marquette
against Editor Newett The cores
pendent was interviewed in Rock
island by a representative of the Mo
line Mall and the following is what
he saws about the trial:
Editor Newett deserves the sym
pathy of everyone who loves fair play
It was the old story Of newspaper
being made the goat. Mr.. Newett's
paper, the Ishpeming Iron Ore. is a
small country weekly. H. o. Young,
former congressman from that district,
has always been a close friend of the
editor During the campaign last fall
when Roosevelt was in Michigan on
speaking tour he made bitter attack
upon Young in an address at Mar
ouette. alleging the then congress
man, standpat Republican. was in
the pay Of the interests. This state
ment was challenged by a member OF
the audience, who characterized 1t as
falsehood and there was a heated
exchange of compliments.
AS a result Of this incident Young
went to Newett and avered that in
his belief the colonel was drunk when
he spoke at Marquette. Other friends
CT Young told Newett that Roosevelt
was a regular drinker, frequently be-
ing intoxicated. The editor, being
anxious to vindicate Young and be-
lieving the things he had heard about
Roosevelt, printed the story which led
to the filing Of the libel suit
Now Newett is a fighter, but he Is
old and is suffering from an incur.
able disease. When the case came
to trial Young and the others who had
inspired the alleged libelous article
were not to be found nor did they give
Newett any assistance On the other
hand, the editor was advised by 9TH
ers to retract and quit and this ad
vice finally prevailed The settle
ment was effected over the heads Of
the lawyers on both sides. If the de-
Tense had introduced its evidence and
the case had -one to the jury. which
was composed of course of local men,
in my opinion the editor would have
had fair chance of getting at least
"a disagreement"
The most striking thing about this
interview is the disclosure of the per-
fdy Of the congressman who would
not come TO the support OF his old
friend and staunch supporter. II he
had anything to tell he should have

Surgeon General Rupert Blue of the
United States public health service
recommends that states adopt laws
that make necessary the presentation
of health certificates before marriage
licenses will be issued. General Blue
says that in his opinion more social
problems will be solved by putting
marriage on a health basis than in
any other way. Young men wishing
to Sow wild oats he says, must be
taught that fathers and mothers of
the land will not entrust their limo
cent daughters to them. If they are
not capable of properly caring for wife
and offspring.

For the purpose of convincing Mr..
Warner that prices last year were
considerably higher than at present
the following data is submitted for
his consideration and attention of any
other parties interested enough to
study conditions and reasons for
change in prices:

price from May Gath until June 9th

ing men sold their wool:

No first class wool was bought in 1912
for less than 23c. BURY, heavy fine.
braid, black. etc, in 1912 brought from
18 to 19c.
Mr.. Warner quotes from trade Jour
nails 10 back up his argument Let me
submit one, sample of the kind that
comes to us every week. 1t doesn't
sound good even though 1t may be a
political argument.
Approach western banker with
sheep paper and the chances are ten
to one that he will plug both ears. The
free trade prospect has caught sheep
raisers in the northwest in the same
defenseless position that flocsmasters
found themselves when the Wilson
bill became effective In Cleveland's
time. They have been buying land
to put their business on permanent
basis. and many Of them are in bad
predicament. The Wilson bill de-
stroyed the sheep industry in Texas
and the Underwood measure promises
to produce the same result in Idaho,
Montana, Wyoming, Utah and ada
cent states. Discussing the situation
an Idaho flockmaster says: This
blow is to be dealt us without warn
ing. Certainly nothing was said about
free wool during the campaign Conse-
quently we have had no chance to
dodge the lightning. II congress in
tends to treat us fairly it ought to
provide for a gradual reduction of
say 25 per cent in the present duty
annually for the next four years, CIV
ing us an opportunity to get out of
sheep into some other business that
can stand on its own bottom, some
thing that cannot be accomplished In
one season" Western reports are all
of the same tenor Bankers are refus-
ing to look at sheep paper and many
flockmasters are faced with the neces-
sity of r11inous liquidation.
