PREVENT PLANT DISEASE

In order to prevent the spread of
contagious diseases of plants through
scale and other agencies harmful to
plant life, the postal authorities have
issued regulations governing the
transportation of plants, plant prod
ucts and seeds by mail, according to
an order from the department re-
ceived by Montana ~postmasters.
The regulations provide that every
parcel must be plainly marked. The
penalty is a fine of 500. The post
masters are authorized to accept
plants for mailing when the contents
are plainly marked on the outside. The
packages must also carry sufficient
postage to send the parcels from the
destination to the nearest inspection
terminal and back to the destination.
There are a score of these inspection
terminals established in the principal
postoffices in the state and the pack
ages are opened and contents inspect
ed by the postmasters before they are
forwarded to the addressee.

potatoes, although. sometimes used for
this crop.
Ashes from hardwoods (deciduous
trees) are richer in both PHOSPHORUS
and potash than those from pines and
other softwoods (conifers). The ashes
of twigs (faggots, for example) are
worth more for agricultural purposes
than the ashes of heartwood taken
from the middle of an old tree. In
general, the smaller and younger the
wood burned the better ashes. The
ashes of coal do not contain enough
potash to make them valuable in this
connection.
The hulls of cotton seed, according
to specialists, yield ashes which con-
tain from 10 to 80 per cent. of pot
ash and from 5 to 10 per cent. of
phosphoric acid. Cotton-hull ashes
therefore as a fertilizer are much
more concentrated than ordinary wood
ashes. AS a matter of fact, in the
opinion of some Investigators, the
ashes from %cottonseed hulls contain
such a large proportion of potash that
they might do considerable harm to
certain crops if they were used in
large quantities.
These ashes have been used with ad'
vantage for manuring tobacco, ant
have in times past brought as much
as $35 or $40 a ton in New England
One objection to their use is that the.

BAD ROADS ARE EXPENSIVE

According to government experts,
the cost of hauling a ton of farm pro-
duce a mile varies from II cents in
localities where fairly hard gravel
roads exist, to 35 cents per ton in
parts of the country where the roads
are in bad condition. On the other
hand, in those European countries
where hard roads prevail, the cost is
as low as nine cents per ton per mile.
The department of agriculture has es-
timated that the total haulage ex-
pense to American farmers for a year
is approximately $500, 900 900. And
every dollar of this stupendous sum
comes from the farmers pocket, for
he is the one great producer who can
not add the haulage expense to his
wares, for the prices he gets are on a
delivered basis.
If every farmer would take pencil
and paper; figure the amount in tons
of the produce and stock he markets
in a year; multiply it by the number
of miles he must haul it to market;
multiply the total by 25, which is
about the average haulage cost per
ton per mile, and then consider that
he could have nearly half of this am
cunt every year if he had an improved
road all the way to his market, he
would become an earnest good roads
worker.

OLIVE OIL FROM SUNFLOWER

The war as a teacher of economy is
scoring new results from time to time
even among a people already SO
economical as the Germans. The
newspapers are calling attention to
the extraordinary increase this year IN
the cultivation Of the common sun
flower; it is seer in great quantities
in the gardens in the suburbs OF ber-
lin and other cities and along railways
everywhere. In previous years the
only practical value of the plant was
in feeding the seeds to birds; but TINS
wear the seeds r used to make an
oil which is pronounced equal to the
hest olive oil for cooking purposes.
A writer is also pointing to further
possibilities of the plant. The ollcake
left after making oil, he says, is an
excellent feed for animals. Whereas
the seeds themselves car be roasted
and used as a substitute for cof1ee
The young shoots and u~ndevelopee
leaves can also be cooked and eater
as a palatable substitution for SPIN
ach.
In Belgium, too, the Germans ar
turning their thoughts toward d'scoV
er;nr new uses for old and fam'l'a'
plants. An agricultural weekly pup

ASHES AS A FERTILIZER

The farmer who burns wood for
heating and cooking should carefully
store the ashes and not permit them
to leach, az they have a peculiar Ter
tilizing value. They not only contain
potash and phosphoric acid in appre-
ciable amounts, but also contain mag
nesia and lime, and when applied to
the land they also act indirectly to in
crease the available nitrogen content
of organic matter in the soil.
Ordinary house ashes contain on
the average about eight or nine per
cent. of potash and two per cent. of
phosphoric acid. Investigators have
considered that there is enough pot
ash and phosphoric acid in a bushel
of ashes to make it worth 20 or rs
cents. Besides that, some 10 or ID
cents additional might be allowed for
the "alkali power" of the ashes. This
power is that which enables ashes to
rot weeds and to ferment peat. The
potash content of ashes will be lost
if they are permitted to leach, and
care should be taken to store them IN
a dry place.
Wood ashes may be p%rofitably ap-
piled as a top dressing to grass land
and to pastures, where they will en-
courage the growth of clover and the
better kinds of grasses, which will
then crowd out inferior kinds and
weeds. Wood ashes also may be used
for corn and roots. Because of their
lime content they are not SO good fol-

A SCHOOL FOR STOCKMEN

After it's recognition as a great
mining region, Montana came tt DC
known as a stockmen's paradise. NO
region possesses better all-the-year
ranges. Growing competition for lane
is making it necessary to improve the
quality of livestock and market EARL
err than formerly.
A convention and school of stock
men has been called at Bozeman fol
the last week of January, to study the
livestock problems of Montana. Al
this meeting stockmen from all ovel
the state will assemble to consider
livestock matters, and listen to ad'
dresses by such men as Dean Robert
Shaw, of Michigan; Professor Cochel
of Kansas, and others, including those
best qualified in Montana.

SUGAR BETS PROFITABLE

Farmers of the midland empire re-
Gently received checks aggregating
$341, 900 for beets delivered SO far this
season to the Billings sugar factory.
That sum represents the first pay
ment made this season. A second and
larger payment next month. In all,
the sugar factory will pay $1,5OO,OOO
for the 100000 tons of beets contract

Verona Is Being Pursued
By Giant Enemy
Submarine.

Madrid. Nov. 22.-(via London).-A
telegram received here today gives a
wireless message said to nave been
sent out by the Italian Verona stating
that she was being pursued by a large
submarine with two periscopes.
According to this telegram the sub
marine is accompanied by a steamer.
The position of the Verona was given
latitude 40 longitude 6, off Cabopalo.
The telegram was received from the
town Of Soller. on Majora island in
the Mediterranean off the Spanish
coast ITO miles south of Barcelona.
The Verona. was scheduled to sail
from Genoa November 9. touching at
Naples November 10 and Palermo No
vember IL on her way to New York.
No word of her sailing, however, has
been received.
Latitude 40, longitude G. is a point
in the western Mediterranean about ITO
miles west of Sardinia.
The Verona is owned by the Italian

PLANS TO uNIONIzE
~UN0RCANIzED LABOR
American Federation Hopes to
Take In 5000, 900 So-Called
Migratory Workers.

San Francisco. Nov. 22.-Initial steps
toward organizing the unemployed men
of the United States were taken today
by the American Federation of Labor,
in convention here.
Organizers, acting under direction OF
local central bodies of various parts of
the country, are to undertake the work
in conjunction with the executive coun-
Gil of the federation.
The plan was announced by the exe-
cutive council, which recommended
that the task be started as soon as
practicable The convention approved
the councils recommendation.
Announcing the plans and recon-
m%endations, T. w. Mccullough, Of
Omaha, chairman of the executive
council, sal that it was estimated
there were more than 100000 "migra-
tory workers" in the United States at
this time. Where strikes occur, he said.
some of these men usually appear and
are taken on as strike breakers under
promise of lettering themselves as
time goes along, and when the strike
is eventually at an end these men find
themselves again among the ranks of
the unemployed.
by organization under the central
labor bodies said Mccullough, " we
can put some hope and some system
into the struggle these men are making
for existence"

LABOR IN
ROW OVER CARPENTERS
Builders Charged With Encroaching Upon Jurisdiction Awarded
Machinists-Union With 200, 900 Members May IA
s Forced Out Of Nat ional Organization.

San Francisco. Nov. 22.-The Amer
lean Federation OF Labor. In the Gloss
ing sessions of its 35th annual conven-
ton today, face the problem of att
tempting to heal a breach in its ranks
thai developed at the session last night.
which, in the language of prominent
officers n delegates, threatened dis
ruption of the organization.
The trouble arose over consideration
of a resolution that, a it been adopt
ed, would have meant the loss OF 200,-
600 members OF the federation. The
resolution, offered by h adjustment
committee, called for the suspension of
the United Brotherhood Of Carpenters
& Joiners, the second largest interna-
tional union in America.
The resolution to withdraw the car
penters' union was the result of the
failure Of the organization to refrain
from alleged encroaching upon juris-
diction awarded the machinists, cou-
pied with the carpenters unions atti-
tude toward the federation.
Gompers Fears Split.
In the course Of the debate, Samuel
Gompers. president of the federation
said:
1--WE are not safe from disintegra-
ton and failure il we lose sight of the
ideals of human brotherhood"
John B. Lennon, opposing the expul-
sion of the carpenters, said:
1--WE are not safe from disruption
Andrew Furuseth, secretary of the

clared his belief that the carpenters
