In all the speculation concerning
Mr. Bryan's probable political activi-
ties next year in connection with the
presidential campaign his rapidly de-
veloping prohibition tendencies are
not ignored He is already commit
ted to state prohibitions that before
the next nominating conventions he
should espouse national prohibition
and seek to commit the democratic
national convention to the policy is
thought by some to be within the
range of probability. Prohibition is
certainly advancing territorially; 10
states already have it and six more
will vote upon it at the next state
elections. With nearly one,hhlf lof
the states of the Union ,on the dry"
side of the liquor question, great en-
couragement is given to a public man
naturally sympathetic with the policy
to proclaim it national issue be-
tween the parties.
Politicians like Mr.. Bryan, or our
own Mr.. Foss of Massachusetts, are
not likely to enter the prohibition
party of small size and blessed mem-
DRY these many years; their object
would be to make the issue para

Bryan may, be seryiceable, within a
very few months in disclosing by his
own course how strongly the winds
OF national prohibition are blowing. a
Bearing on this question OF prohibi
ton as national issue of perhaps
first-rate political Importance is h the
coming judicial test of the Webb
Kenyon, law passed by Congress in
the spring of 1913 over the veto of
President Taft. Several cases al
ready have been before the United
States supreme court apparently in'
volving the constitutionality OF the
act, but the court has lately decided
two of them, arising in Kansas and
Kentucky, without reaching at all
the constitutional issue which Presi-
dent Taft made conspicuous in his
veto, message No decision on the
main point is possible before the au-
tumn, but a West Virginia case now
pending is believed to afford the de
sired opportunity for final and con-
elusive judgment Should this de-
cision be handed down during the
next autumn or winter it might affect
the presidential campaign and as
well the platform declarations of the
nominating conventions.
The WebbKenyon law empowers
the states to regulate interstate com
merce in liquors in so far as it may
be necessary to fulfil the purpose OF
their own state laws regulating the
liquor traffic. A prohibition state
hitherto was hampered in making
dry its owp, territory because Ii
8quor could be shipped intp the state
TO persons who had bought it outside
for their own purposes. The express
companies did large business. con-
sequently in interstate shipments of
this kind of commodities.
President Taft vetoed the Webb
Kenyon bill because Congress dele
gated to the states the power of regu-
lating interstate commerce-a power
vested by the constitution in Con-
gress alone II the supreme court
should uphold his view and declare
the law invalid, the effort to make
state prohibition "water-tight' would
fail in so far as law could be used in.
that direction, and the prohibition
movement might easily assume
more national aspect. For, if prohibi
ton states cannot be safeguarded
against liquor shipments from the
nonprohibition states, the demand
for nationwide prohibition will prob
ably gain in force and volume

INCREASING SOIL fertility
Farmer Can Secure More Cotton by
Planting on Area Where Legumi.
nous Crops Have Grown.

Inasmuch as green crops suitable
for hog cholera can be maintained in
the South practically every month in
the year, 1t is possible for the south
ern farmer to make more money than
the northern farmer upon hog-pro-
ducing operations, and the profits
made are in proportion to the amount
of green food used. But in addition
to making ready money on the hogs
themselves the farmer who grows le-
guminous crops and grazes them of
with hogs has a fertilizer factory on
his own farm. In a test at the Ar
kansas station, hogs grazed upon areas
of peanuts, chufas and soy beans. The
following two years the land was
planted in cotton, and data were COL
lected to determine what effect this
grazing might have upon the cotton
yield.
The effect was remarkable; for in
stance, in the case of soy beans and
peanuts the increased yield of cotton
was 44.6 and Gil per cent, respective
ly. The effects Of growing these crops
and grazing them off does not stop
with the cotton grown the year i'm
mediately following the grazing. The
data show that the increase over the
corn lot vas still considerable in the
second year. 1t is therefore apparent
that the farmer can get more cotton
when it is planted on an area where
hogs have grazed or where peanuts,
soy beans, or other legumes have been
grown.
