 FAVOR VI TE PROHIBITION

The territorial legislature has de- clared that the people of Alaska are to decide by secret ballot for or against the saloon. By a two-thirds vote the House instructerd the com mittee to present bill under the pro- visions of which a vote is to be poll ed at the general November election, 1916, and if the returns by the canvass ing board, February, 1917, show the majority to favor the drys the legisla- ture which convenes during March, 1917, is to pass a prohibition law, or if possible ask congress to enact a prohibition law for the territory, effec- tive January l, 1918.
 The bill results from a compromise effected by Dan Driscoll, leading the House forces against hasty action on prohibition, and Representative Snow, author of prohibition legislation in the House.
 The question of a dry or wet terri tory arose over the Snow memorial asking congress to allow Alaska to cast a secret ballot on the question. This memorial was tabled in favor of one ordering a vote in 1916 by the territory itself This memorial was attacked by Driscoll and others on the grounds 1t would hamper the revenues of the territory and there would be no session of the territorial legisla- ture to provide revenue in case the territory went dry.
 Representative Daly also saved the colored population of the territory from being disfranchsed at the cleo tion by having the word white" strick en from the bill. As originally drawn it provided for white" citizens only to vote on the question.
 Representative Driscoll complained that a Juneau newspaper had heralded a front page with Tried kill the dry bill," when he had had the original Snow memorial tabled. Representa- tive Driscoll declared he was in favor of allowing the voters to express their preference in any and all public mat ters affecting their welfare and would abide by their verdict recorded at the polls.
 Representative Held asked: Has any representative body of citizens petitioned the legislature for secret ballot on the subject?
 Representative Shoup informed the House that 300 Douglas citizens has presented petition to Judge Jennings asking a secret ballot on the question of "wet or dry" at Douglas City. He also declared his territory to be dry and 1t was not a question of revenue but one of the injustice of "cutting off at the pockets" the business of the re- tail liquor dealers now licensed by law.
 Representative Holland declared there was a strong sentiment in his section. Already a petition has been sent from his home section signed by ninety per cent of the residents asking for chance to vote by secret ballot. He said he hoped the matter would not come up, but he knew how his people at home stood on the subject.
 Representative Moran declared the ballot of the people was the best way to settle such questions. He also de- clared the Day objection to be a good one.

FEED COTTONSEED TO HOGS
Hoard's Dairyman Says No Uniformly
Successful Method Of Feeding
Has Yet Been Found.

In response to the query "What ex.
perience have you had In feeding
cooked cottonseed to hogs and young
pigs?' Hoard's Dairyman makes the
following reply:
We have had no experience in feed,
ing cooked cottonseed, nor do we re.
call any experimentation along this
line. No uniformly successful method
or feeding %cottonseed or %cottonseed
meal to swine has yet been found. The
poisonous effect Of c%ottonseed meal Is
said to be due to its content Of pyro.
p%hosphoric acid, which is developed
when the seed is subjected to great
heat. Reasoning along this line we
would be inclined to believe that
cooked cottonseed would not prove q
safe feed for pigs. However, the
Louisiana station states that It's ex.
periments do not uphold this theory,
and that the poisonous effect Of the
cottonseed Is due to some other factor
whose virulence Is decreased by heat.
Ing. The seed Is held to be more pois,
onous than the meal. 1t is probably
safe to feed cottonseed meal when Il
does not constitute more than one,
NTH to a quarter of the grain ration
and is fed at this rate for not more
than thirty days.

SUBS0ILING MAY BE HARMFUL
Increase In Yield Does Not Paw for
Work Done-Bad Practice to
Advocate, Says Expert.

Gy o. o. CHURCHILL. Oklahoma Ex,
pertinent StationN
The practice Of subsoiling Is receiv,
ing a good many notices in the press
Mt this time. 1t is advocated par.
ttcularly on tight soils and under
drought conditions.
A good many of the stations In diff.
ferent parts of the United States have
conducted many experiments to deter
mine the benefit derived from this
practice. Very seldom, II ever. does
the increase in yield pay for the
work done, and we. therefore, advise
against subsoiling under most condi.
tions, In some cases subsoiling may
eve be harmful.
We have been unable TO find any rec.
ords indicating that subsoiling will
pay. 1t seems to us. therefore, to be
a bad practice to advocate, even il
in theory it does sound we'll.
Subsoiling is usually performed by
an implement made of a straight blade
with n shoe on the bottom. This i'm.
plement is run in the bottom of the
furrow and follows Immediately after
an ordinary pillow. II does not turn
the soil, but merely loosens It. 1t
takes as much power to pull the
subsoil plow as 1t does an ordinary
pillow.
