corporate limits of Chicago, yet the
population is growing by many thou
sands every year. But even if the
population increased by two million,
there wouldn't be another square
foot of land in Chicago unless we ex-
tended the corporate limits.
But the demand for land, and
hence its selling value, increases as
the population increases.
That's why it is possible for
man who owns land in a growing
community to sit back and take life
easy while the people make him
rich.
Old Marshall Field was wise to the
game when he gave instructions to
his administrators, in his will, to buy
land in Chicago, or get 99-year
leases.
His two grandsOns, one about 20
and the other about IS, are now be-
ing educated in England, while the
land he owns in the loop and else
where goes on increasing in value.
InOSe boys don't nave TO even wig
gle their toes. Everybody in Chicago
is working for them.
And the high rents in the loop,
caused by the growing demand for
land-YOU have to pay them, for the
merchants who pay the rent have to
get it out of the people they sell
goods to.
But if we taxed the vacant land all
over Chicago so that the owners
could not afford to keep it out of use,
very likely Chicago would grow all
over instead of in spots. We could
grow along the ground instead of up
in the air.
Yes, YOU are interested in the va
cant land.

 Now there are some parts of this country where it is thus grown with success, but in most of the South that will be too, early and you had better SOW peas in the corn and cut and shock the corn at maturity. and then disk down the peas and SOW the clover in September Pro- gressive Farmer.

WEEKLY LETTER OF JOHN H. PAGE, COMMISSIONER MINES, MANUFACTURES, AGRICULTURE

ltlaliy VI LBC ldI IIlCIo . DCHillO WItll their work. At some time dur ing the spring we always have too much rain, and it would serve us mighty. well if we would al- ways keep this in mind and pre- pare flor it the best we can. During the good weather we can make note of a good many odd jobs that we can do on rainy days B. making list of them we will soon find sthat the rainy days come in proftably and the time is not lost.
 During.wet weather the grass and weeds grow rapidly and are hard ito. kill.M M Use the. harrow cross wise of the rows on the corn and cotton after the plants are up. Do not start the harrow early in the morning, but wait | until nine or ten o'clock. The young plants are tougher after the sun shines on them awhile, and will not break down so easi- l ly. Do anot blow when the ground is too wet. It is time thrown saway'Eand often does more harm than good. Better use the hoe than blow when the ground is wet. It is costlier but pays the best. Hoe-made corn Is high-priced cor1., but it is bet ter than no corn at all. Plant some COW peas, velvet beans or soy beans this month.
 If you can't plant this month, make arrangements for next month. Set aside the land for one or more of these crops. Don't forget the sorghum patch either. It is needed to make molasses and also to furnish good pasture for. hogs later on. Cow peas and sorghum together makes a good hay crop. The sorghum doesn't benefit the land, but the COW pea the velvet bean and soy bean do. The two. latter add lots of nitrogen to the soil, and that is l the costliest element required to make rich soil. Every farm should have a potato patch. Ar ter the potatoes are dug do not let the land lie idle. but plant 1t tc another crop. Several crops can be grown after potatoes. If in doubt aoout what to try, fall back on the old reliable COW pea Every farm should have either alfalfa or clover on it. It is not every farm that will grow alfal- ia, but most of them will grow some of the clovers. Prepare scme land for clover and SOW it th.S fall. You can not do better than try some bur clover. AL syke clover is good for wet land,
 Is good for pasture and hay. l Crimson clover is soil builder
 hat is hard to equal 2ud makes a fine crop.
 By all means take care of the calves and pigs. There are few CT cattle in Arkansas than for the past twenty-five years. This is fact. You know what it means. Keep the cows and heif- CT calves especially. We need them for breeding purposes. One acre of Arkansas land can be made to sustain one head of cat tie, and yet we haven't an aver age of one head to every forty acres. The Lord gave the in- junction to his people to Multi ply and repienish the earth. " As a Christian people we are obedient to this command, and so Arkansas is land of babies. Now all we need to make and keep this land of milk and honey. is to supply the milk. Hence one of the demands fo
 more and better cattle.

ODD FELLOWS DEMAND THAT
GRAND MASTER BE DE-
THRONED.

Wherever tyrants have set them
selves above the law the people have
risen in their wrath and rescued their
rights. No mention need be made OF
Phocas, Robesjierre, Marat and Crom-
we'll; it is enough to read the pages
of current history and see that but
yesterday Huerta ruled as dictator OF
Mexico. while today he skulks abroad
on foreign shores an exile from the
land he called his own.
The voice of the people is the voice
of God. The people loudly call for
Edward H. Morris to be dethroned.
Morris Has Held Office For Twenty
Two Years.
Edward H. Morris was Grand Direc-
tor in 1883 and 1884; Deputy Grand
Master in 1885 and 1886; Grand Di-
rector in 1897 and 1893; Grand Master
for four years from 1900 to 1892;
Grand Attorney eight years from
1903 to 1910: Grand Master for four
years from 1911 to 1914. One would
think he would be satisfied with this
long record of drawing money from
the treasury of the order, but in ad-
dition to this he placed his brother
on the Odd Fellows Supreme Court
to draw a salary; and now Grand Mas
ter Morris is again a candidate to
succeed himself in violation of Law

TO COMPLAIN AGAINST DIS
ELIMINATION.

Persons who visit the Minnesota
State Fair should protest any discrim-
nations against them, by reporting
same to the police officers, also to the
Secy. Mr.. Simpson, who can be found
in the Administration Building. This
should be done quietly and in good
order, that no reflection may be cast
upon the compliments. The State
Fair Board will tolerate no discrimina-

SUMMER SCHOOL LECTURES.
Topics Discussed at Various lnstitu-
tons by DR.. G. e. Haynes.

Topics Discussed AT various Instttu-
tons by Or. g. e. Haynes.
DR.. George f. Haynes, director Of
the National League on Urban Condi-
tons Among Negroes. recently COM
pleted a course Of ten lectures on so
cial problems given before the teach
ers attending the summer normal at
the Virginia Union university. Rich
mond, Va. Tuskegee institute. the
Tennessee Normal school and the West
Virginia institute.
These lectures are designed to stimu,
late an interest among leaders Of Ne
gro groups In community needs and TO
lead those favorably impressed to or
ganize their followers in the various
sections for general improvement in
conditions that have been made bet
ter by the branch organizations Of the
Urban league In New York. Philadel-
phia. Richmond, Atlanta, Augusta. Sa-
vannah and Louisville.
DR.. Haynes opening lecture EN-
phasized the relative Importance of
heredity and environment In their eff.
feet on future and immediate genera
lions. He urged the teachers to guide
the young while acquiring character.
istics toward those habits Of life which
would lead the race to achievement
and higher standards of living.
In subsequent lectures housing, In
dustrial and health conditions were
treated intensively. BY means Of Ian,
tern slides the various types Of homes
and occupations Of Negroes were indi
Gated to the audience.
The lecturer was unusually frank In
his treatment Of the industrial prob
lens. He urged upon his hearers the
importance Of efficiency in service-the
absolute necessity of well trained, com
petent artisans In the skilled trades
and regular, sober and reliable un-
skilled labor. "An employer of labor. u
he said, wishes q job well done in as
brief a period Of service as the most
skilled workman can execute 1t In. II
does not matter to the employer wheth
er black or white hands bring about
the results so long as the desired re-
suit follows"
DR.. Haynes final lecture was on
THE Faith Of the Fathers" In which
he showed the earnestness with which
the Negroes Of the years just before
and after slavery stuck to the ideals OF
progress and kept the faith with their
country, their race and their God. He
emphasized the necessity Of the pres
ent generation Of the race keeping
faith with their progenitors by sticking
to the same ideals and improving upon
their methods because Of the added ad
vantage in intelligence and opportunity
for service at the command Of the race
today.
DR.. Haynes also delivered this series
