A National Greed

The Chicago Herald suggests the
following as National creed by
which the men, women and children
of America may affirm their Amer
icanism:
II believe in the United States,
one and indivisible; in her mission
as the champion of humanity-as the
friend of the weak and distressed; in
the singleness, dignity and inviola-
bility of American citizenship; in
the validity of our national tradi-
tions in peace with honor; in friend
ship with all nations that respect our
rights; in entangling alliances with
none; in reasonable preparations for
national defense by sea and land in
Sinking no sacrifice needed to hand
down to the future the priceless
treasures bequeathed to us by the
past; in the necessity of keeping the
western hemisphere free from the in
trusions of European institutions and
ambitions; in the capacity of free
men for self government: in the love
of home and country; and in the un-
flinching resolution that government
of the people, for the people by the
people shall not perish from the
earth

The hearing in the Riggs bank
case, AS far as it has gone at this
writing, has been useful largely in
disclosing that the banks no longer
run the government. and that Comp
troller Williams is not training to
take IA bank presidency as soon rs
his term of office expires. One of
the pledges of the Democratic adj
ninistration was to place the govern
ment back into the hands of the
people, and here is some substantial
evidence of the way that promise has
been kept.-The Commoner.

The Bryan episode is still a live
topic all over the land. A large
majority of the papers and men of
prominence in public life severely
censure Mr.. Bryan for his action in
rendering his resignation at the time.
Some of the criticisms of the Com
moner are very severe-particularly
that of Henry WattersOn, the great
Democratic editor of the Louisville
Courier-Journal, who characterizes
Mr.. Bryan's desertion of the ship of
state at time when the government
was engaged in IL grave controversy
with Germany, as ''rreachery I'm
speakable."

You see by this list of prices that all
of the metals are appreciably higher,
and the end is not yet by any means.
Gold of course remains the same.
There is a market for everything, and
with silver, zinc or spleter, copper

Deep Flowing

Professor Alvin keyser of the
Agricultural college in II recent bulle-
tin gives some excellent advice on
deep blowing. The bulletin reads rs
| follows:
"A great deal has been said and
have advocated the system in season
and out of season, for all soils, and
crops and all conditions, and others
have opposed the system.
Deep blowing certainly has its
place in nearly all systems of agr-
culture. but it has to be used with
discretion. Deep blowing immed-
lately before planting II crop on the
dry land is almost sure to insure a
failure of the crop. Unless rain
should come Immediately after plow
ing, injury will surely result because
| of moisture conditions. II rain comes
Immediately afterwards, no damage
| is done. The moral of this expert
| mental fact is that deep blowing
should de done IA considerable period
| previous to seeding time so that the
moisture relation and proper com
FACTION can be completed in the soil
before seeding.
| Deep blowing is sometimes not
advisable in high attitudes because
of the fact that growing conditions
are quite different, so that the crop
4 does not mature as quickly In the
| very high attitudes. This is some
4 times serious factor with such
| crops as the grains. IF the crop is
/ delayed in maturity for ten days, it
may be caught by a severe freeze,
running the crop. Deep blowing, es-
\ pecially short time before seeding
\ in these attitudes sometimes has the
effect of delaying maturity more
\ than that number of days. 1t must
4 therefore, be used with caution for
crops where early maturity is de-
| sirable factor. This caution only ap-
1 plies to the high attitudes which
have, normally, very short seasons. y
