ONE IDEA.
Very Essential, But President Is Slow
to Grasp II.
american Economist)

american Economist)
The following suggestive paragraph
appeared in an editorial in the New
York Times of January 10.
There Is one idea about which
President Wilson will do we'll to take
serious thought, for it has become well
rooted in this republic, and which takes
its roots deeper as the opportunity is
given for a careful study Of the com
position, the capacity, and the aims of
the democratic party. 1t is the idea,
the belief, that on the whole the people
of the country are better, more pros
porous and have less cause for anx-
iety under a republican than under a
democratic administration. If thai
belief prevails in 1916-but that would
be prophecy"
Heretofore the Times has been an
frdent supporter of President Wilson
IN all of his policies, more especially
free trade. The about face in the in
tsance quoted above seems to have
been inspired by disapproval of the
scheme of creating a government own
ed merchant marine. The Times balks
at that. So do many other newspap-
.ers which have hitherto seen nothing
but the most exalted wisdom in the
White House schoolmaster. Where
fore a pointed significance resides ir
the suggestion that the president
would do well to consider the one idea
that Is more and more growing in
strength and extent, namely, that the
country would be very much better off
If 1t never had another free trade aG-
lninistration. Yes; the schoolntaster
had best reckon with that idea in the
remaining two years of his term. There
is great deal in It,

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
Figures That Give Some Idea of the
Value of Its Work.

The United States geological survey
| is national in scope as well as in name
In the year ending June 80, 1914, geo
llogic Investigations were conducted in
AZ states, Alaska, Hawaii and the Ca
nal zone; topographic surveys were
made in 35 states, Alaska and Ha-
wall; and stream measurements were
continued in 80 states, Alaska and Fla !
wall The total area covered by the
biologists in reconnaissance and de-
tailed surveys was more than $4,000
square miles, and the area mapped by
the topographers was more than U.s.
900 square miles, an aggregate are
almost nine-tenths that of the United
Kingdom. The land classification
work Of the geological survey last year
included reports on an aggregate Of
45,000,Oo0 acres or 10000 square miles
Of public lands, an area of coal, phos-
phate, oil and dry farming lands

FISH FOR FERTILIZER
TWENTY TONS A DAY
ONE FEMALE CARP WILL MORE
THAN SUPPLY THE FER.
TILlzER FACTORY.

Five years ago 1t was q common
saying In Imperial valley that the wa
ders of Salton sea, Ariz., would assay 20
per cent carp. Since then the sea has
diminished through evaporation under
the rays of the sun and the carp have
multiplied and increased enormously.
Now an infinitesmal percentage, say
20 or 80 tons day, of these non-edi-
BILE fish, are to be taken out and con-
verted into fertilizer and oil
A company has purchased the fish
Ing rights from the Southern Pacific
company, which owns alternate Sec
tons of land under the sea, and pro-
poses to begin operations in about two
months. 1t will take out 20 to 80 tons
Of carp day.
Salton Sea carp weigh to Is pounds
each If the company converts 20 tons
of them day into fertilizer 1t will take

female carp spawns three times year
laying 100000 to 100000 eggs each
time Because the water Is warm and
conditions exceptionally favorable In
the Imperial valley lake, 1t Is said that
rs per cent Of these mature. So one
female carp, according to fishermen't
estimates, would produce In a year L.
100000 other carp, or 100000 more than
the fertilizer factory will use

rlsion at the puny efforts Of the fisher
men to 7eponulate the sea, must con-
slider or fish have anything to consid-
err WITH that myriads Of denizens OF
the air are on the job all the time
and their voracious appetites must be
satisfied. Pellcans, gulls and other sea
birds in enormous numbers make the
sea stopping or abiding place. Most
of them prefer fish diet and the carr
are usually their victims.

UNCLE JUD's ADVICE
TO ADVERTISERS

Newspaper advertising should be
looked on in this way;
It's either an investment, worth
the cost and bound to pay,
Or it's something a feIIow'd bet
ter not attempt at all.
To dabble in it makes what l a
wicked waste would call.
First rid yourself of the idea,
whoever put it there,
That you viii spend some amount
whatever you can spare"
If you expect from your invest
ment adequate returns;
If you'd increase and multiply
the sum your money earns.
The volume of the returns desired
should be proportionate to
The sum You spend-I hope my
friend, / make this plain to you.
The merchant whose announce
ments are worth money, say,
to me,
Will find his customers increasing
very rapidly;
While If the other fellows adj
vertising outshines yours,
Folks will believe his goods are
best and buy them just as
sure's
Pm writing this; if of the melon
you want a slice
You'll ponder on these words and
profit from my advice.

SOMETHING IN THIS

You are reading this paragraph
now because you have learned to
look for something of value in
these columns. Here's something
that is worth much to you. What
stores have the best goods and at
the most reasonable prices in this
town? How can you know which
stores they are9 Watch the ads in
this paper, for they tell the story.
The merchant who spends money in
advertising his goods invariably has
goods that are worth advertising,
and his prices must Of necessity
be right or he could not afford to
call especial attention to them
through the public print. Just

will save time, trouble and money

est prices and yield the largest
crops to the acreage, thus producing
the greatest financial returns.
8. Study the different crops each
season and devise ways and means
of increasing the yield while at the
same time reducing the cost Of
production. This is not difficult
proposition if person goes at it
scientifically and with a determine
ton to succeed.
6. When reports indicate that
the country is going in heavily for
pne certain crop, let that crop
alone and raise something else
equally as productive of financial
returns. The farmer who is long
ON a short crop has a small gold
mine.
7. Don't be afraid to try some
thing new. Others all over the
county are becoming rich by getting
in on the ground floor of new
and good thing.

THINK BEFORE YOU PLANT

The editor of this paper does not
profess to be an authority ON farm
ing, but to our mind it would seem
that the following of a few simple
rules would result in more salts
factory results from the standpoint
of the tiller of the soil.
, 1. Produce enough of each ar
ticle needed to subsist the family
from year to year and feed the
stock without having to go into
the market and buy those articles
at high prices. Let this be care
fully figured out before planting
time and see that provision is made
for quite enough of each article of
diet.
2. Keep enough hogs, cattle and
poultry to supply all of the meat
and eggs required during the year
without having to buy at the end
of the season.
3. Instead of planting the sur
plus acreage to the time honored
crops that yield small returns, study
the market reports carefully and
select crops that will produce well
ON the particular land in question
and yet bring high price in the
city markets. Then put every
available acre and all possible
energy into producing a large yield
from those crops and sell in the
city markets when prices are at
high tide.
4. To avoid wearing out the
land rotate the crops, always select
ing those articles that bring high
