Way for Mr.. Underwood.


Democratic wiseacres at Washing
lon are busy organizing the Senate
committee on finance to make a place
Tor Oscar w. Underwood. who will en-
ter the august body as senator from
Alabama when Congress reconvenes
In December. Just who is to retire
to provide the necessary vacancy on
this coveted committee has not vet
been determined, but it is limited that
Shively OF Indiana ar Stone or Mis-
souri, will graciously step down and
allow the great revenue producer
from the southland to have the same
prominence in the Senate that he had
in the House.
It is now admitted by the Demo-
Gratis that the revenue laws viii need
serious attention. Even the most
obtuse could see, this when the deficit
for the fiscal year 1916 on August 81
amounted to more than $31 ,000, 900, or
q little more than half million day.
This presages a final deficit close to
$3.50 100000 for the year, sum that
must make even Democrat reflect
ana wonder il his party is on the right
track That Is one reason why they
want Underwood on the Senate finance
committee, so he may assist in devils
ing new forms Of war" taxes to meet
the current expense OF running the
government at peace ' with all the
world,

American Congress to do but to face
the situation without illusions and

To Mr.. Wilson and the Democratic

Treasury Comparisons ImpracticabIe.
Because the American people are
entitled to know the condition Of the
business Of their government, many
have been publishing
once week or oftener, statement
OF the condition of the federal treas
ury, showing the net balance In the
general fund as compared with the
balance two years earlier. when Re-
publican revenue laws and appropria-
tions were in effect Needless to say,
the showing was not at all creditable
to the present Democratic administers
ton Perhaps the repeated pubfica-
ton OF the daily diminishing balance
got on the nerves Of Secretary Of the
Treasury McAdoo. son-in-law OF the
president and supposed exponent Of
President Wilson's "pitiless publicity
At any rate, Secretary McAdoo made
a change in the form of the daily
treasury statement. effective October
4. SO that hereafter it will be fmpos-
stble to compare Democratic with Re-
publican treasury conditions.
On the last day Of September, 1915.
the net balance in the general fund
was S4o.S9S. 1884. On the corresponding
date two years ago, the balance was
$123. 41S5613. Since this admfnistra-
tion could not otherwise get away
from the showing made In It's daily
statement. Secretary McAdoo changed
the method of keeping accounts so
that a balance of less than $41 5000
on September 80 leaped to the crafty
ing sum of $12S, 06S, as on October !.
Undoubtedly it is pleasing to Sec
rotary McAdoo and to the president to
read these figures in the daily state
ment but far more pleasing must be
the thought that hereafter Republican
will not be able to print
between Democratic and
Republican treasury balances. Great

We believe that Invariably
where the stand is not what it
should lie in early planting, it
should be relisted. breaking the
middle>; while in late pl Uniting a
planter may be used.
The one other thing we want
to here mention is the matter of
rapid. fire work at planting time,
and particularly so where there
has been no preliminary
work in preparing the seed bed.
Where no prior work has been
done, finishing planting in two
weeks should be possible, and
three weeks should be consider
ed the limit in doing the work.
Where the seed bed has been
prepared by. prior listing or 9TH
erwise,, the planting may be con-
tinued to five weeks-in case
there is team force to cultivate
the first planting when it needs
it.
We believe there is nothing
gained by continuing to plant af-
ter the first planting needs culti-
walton.
This year particularly the
farmer is prepared TO do rapid
fire work. There Is both feed
and grain in unlimited quantities.
Pour it into them; and then for
two or three weeks make them
get up and dust.
One of the best farmers in the
county-an old timer, once told
the editor, after n day or two l
put my team right down to ten
acres>a day, and make them keep
that pace till the planting is
DONE"
Those horses when they begin
on that ten acres a day should be
in good flesh and grain hardened.
If they are not what they ought
to be now, get the grain to them
until you get them in shape.
Ard remember all the time
that about fifty per cent of sue.
cess in dry farming depends on
the beginning to plAntat&ha right
time, and the ability to do rapid
fire work, as above indicated.
