Need Of Crop
Rotation.

a cropping system that will ad'
NIT Of the conservation of as
much moisture in the soil as pos
sible, the liberating of plant
food, and the maintaining of a
permanent system of agriculture.
To do this the farmers of Kan
sas must grow crops in rotation
with each other that feed differ.
emily in the soil-that is, to diff
ferent depths, and that effect the
soil-physically and otherwise
differently. We always advise
the growing ola legume such as
alfalfa, cowpeas or soy beans
or any adapted legume-occas'
ionally, upon the land, in rota'
ton with such crops as corn and
wheat.
We strongly advocate the grow
ing of cowpeas after wheat, that
same year, and blowing them un-
der for green manure. Our Kan
sas soils need humus. Possibly
the quickest and cheapest way OF
adding humus to the soil is by
blowing under a green manuring
crop such as cowpeas. Humus
is the substance in the soil that
enables it to hold water. Kan
sas farmers have exhausted a
large percentage of the native
humus or organic matter of the
soil through continuously crop
ping to one crop-wheat or corn.
Some of the counties of the state
plant as much as seventy per
cent of their tillable area to corn
every year. These same counties
have less than thirteen or four
teen per cent of their lard down
to legumes, when they should
have at least thirty.
The primary reason for the
low yields, and the constantly
increasing low yields of corn and
wheat in this state, are due to
the exhaustion of humus in the
soil-which lack of humus leaves
the soil in poor physical condi-
ton to retain water and to give
up plant food. 1t also leaves it
in the best possible condition to
erode and wash away.
We also advocate in the rota-
ton the application of as much
barnyard manure as can be OBJ
tanned, and to the end of secur-
ing more manure than we can
now secure, we strongly advo-
cate the handling of more live
stock on every Kansas farm. To
handle more live stock means
that the farmers must put more
of their land down to legumes,
grasses or hay crops OF some
kind. The rotation must include
the crops best adapted to the
given area. It must include the
crops that will make the most
money for the farmer. The ro-
tation should also make possible
the proper distribution and econ
omic utilization of labor, ma
chinery, etc.
In the corn and wheat belt of
Kansas we recommend the fol-
lowing rotation, because it is the
rotation that is doing best for us
in this district: Corn, oats
either on fall blowing or on. the
corn stubble thoroughly disked
in early spring-then wheat.
The ground for the wheat to be
plowed deeply early in July and
worked into a thoroughly firm
seed bed at once and kept free
from weeds until planting time.
After the wheat is removed
which will be the last of June

Lady Abinger First
The list of titled Americans begins with
the name of Lady Abinger, which is ap-
propriate enough, considering that she
was the first of the long line OF American
peeresses, having married Lord Abinger,
a distinguished Crimean officer, in 1863.
The last name in the list which one can
notsread without refiecting how thorough
ly the British peerage has been Ameri-
canized. is that of Lady Wolseley who
was Miss Anita Murphy of New York, and
married Sir Charles Michael Wolseley, the
ninth baronet, in 1888. Their seat is
Wolseley Hall in Staffordshire The next
name to Lady Woseleys is that of Mrs

Fifteen men were arrested in San
Francisco in connection with the opium
smuggling expose, on September !, and
many other persons whose identity is
being held a secret by the federal of
hcials are being sought by deputies
from the office of the United States
marshal ut San Francisco. 1t is re.
ported that many of these are higher
up in the customs service than the in.
spectors and guards who were arrested.
In an account of the arrest of the
inspectors the Chronicle stated that
suspicion rested on one official, "said
to be in Honolulu, and it is said to be
possible that his arrest and extradi.
ton will be ordered within the next
few days.
Confessions obtained by the federal
officials led to the statement that on
nearly every steamer reaching San
Francisco from the Orient opium was
muggled ashore through the connivance
of the inspectors and guards.
When the Manchuria. OF the Pacific
Mail line reached San Francisco ON
Monday of last week the revenue cut
er McLuloch stood nearby and kept
its searchlight trained on the vesse
until daybreak. The liner was off the
heads all night anu not for an instant
did the powerful light cease playing

party of armed sailors boarded the yes.

valued at $4425. This was found in

The officials had information in ad-
vance from Hongkong that the opium
was aboard.

HILO POI FACTORY
PROVES A SUCCESS

A new poi factory in which the best
and most sanitary machinery is being
used was started recently in Hilo by
John r. Baker. As yet the concern is
being run on small scale, the plant be.
ing located in the rear of Mr., Baker g

are located in many parts of the Ter
ritory. 4 number of persons in Homo
lulu have shares in the company, it is
said. Mr.. Baker interested number
of friends in the project of starting
poi factory in IIIlo where the natives
rould dispose of their taro at a profit.
His plan met with approval from all

is made comes from the taro patches
of the native planters and from a Chi
nese who owns one Of the largest taro
