THE APPOINTMENT OF BRANDE1s.

''There would be no question about Mr. Bran
deis's qualifications for the supreme bench if his
public services had not won him the hearty detest
alton of certain powerful corporations and finan-
cial interests says the New York World, an
opinion with which many newspapers agree and
which doubtless leads the Christian Science Mon
itor to remark that "the nomination of Mr.. Bran
deis will be received with acclaim by social service
workers throughout the country and generally by
people holding progressive economic views.''
''The hard fight that is to be waged against Mr..
Brandeiss confirmation will surprise nobody
comments the Puyallup Valley Tribune, which,
after pointing out that the supreme court really
controls legislation and suggesting that it is a
mighty good thing to have on "your side" says
that Mr. Brandeis as supreme court justice would
stand for American ideas which have been pretty
we'll lost sight of for some years. He is a man Of
the type Of Benjamin Franklin. His feelings are
homely, humane and in the deepest sense, Chris
tan. His wisdom is not class or partisan but
universal. His judicial labors would be performed
for the whole country not for any favored section
or privileged group"
'Brandeis will not be confirmed by the senate
without growl from the lawyers of that BODY
says the MOntesanO Vidette, while the Inter-
Mountain Register, noting the Oregonian's oppo-
siton, suggests that if Brandes chad the reputa-
ton of being the friend Of capital suppose his
nomination would have been approved by the
Oregonian." But the Registers contemporary,
the Ellensburg Capital, Republican newspaper,
says 1.-THE American people will not relish Bran
deis on the supreme bench.'
Louis D. Brandeis admittedly is different type
of man than usually appointed to the United
States supreme court. Generally those who
achieve this highest legal honor in the land are
men whose ability has enabled them to command
high fees from the big corporations and uncon-
sciously but because of this service they have
become trained to the corporation, capitalistic
viewpoint and though their honor, integrity,
their intentions and their desires in their court
work undoubtedly of the highest order, there
is always that viewpoint to tinge and color their
decisions. Brandeis, with ability none the less,
has served on s'the other side of the fence,' has
accumulated the other viewpoint.
Is it not altogether likely that it would be an
excellent thing if this other viewpoint were intro
duced into the deliberations of the United States
supreme court?

Those fourteen Thurston county farmers who

farm where it is used, but is gathered
together from all parts Of the world by
wholesale seedsmen. The farmer is told
little about the place Of origin and
very often less about the quality of the
seed which he purchases. Practically
the only way he can obtain the infor-
nation that he needs for his own pro-
lection is through seed testing.
Seed testing helps the farmer, first,
by telling him what proportion of the
seed he is buying is alive, of what
seeds it contains, and, second, by fur
nishing the means of discovering and
putting a stop to the sale Of adulterat
ed and low grade seeds. In this con-
nection the article already mentioned
points out that when the United States
department of agriculture began to
make analyses of different lots of seed
and to publish the results. marked
decrease in the adulteration of each
particular kind of seed followed the
next season. The temptation, how
ever, to adulterate seed is great, for
large profits frequently can be obtain
ed by the substitution of one variety
for another. During the spring Of 1915,
for example, if per cent of timothy
was introduced into a carload of seed
sold as redtop it meant a profit of SIS
to $500 to the seller. Over 100 lots of
redtop examined by the department
were found to contain an average II
per cent Of timothy seed.
Such instances as this indicate the
necessity of seed testing. This alone
will give the retail scotsman accu-
rate information about the seeds he is
selling and make it possible for him to
conduct his business with intelligent
interest. 1t is suggested, however,
that it will be more practical and eco
nomical for seeds to be tested as far
as possible in large lots while in the
bands Of the wholesale dealer, copy
ST the analysis accompanying each sale
as a guaranty of quality. In this way
the labor and expense of testing each
small lot of seed will be avoided, and
the purchaser will at the same time
have accurate information as to the
agricultural value of the seed.

Dat yields in Ohio can in most cases
be increased at least per cent if farm,
ers treat their seed oats for smut, IS
the opinion of ]. G. Humbert, assistant
botanist at the Ohio agricultural exper-
iment station. Because Of the unusu-
ally wet season last year many farm
ers secured increased yields of 10 to 20
per cent by spending a few hours in
treating their seed just previous to
planting time. In all tests the results
at the experiment station show that
the increase in yield has paid the farm

One pint Of 40 per cent formaldehyde,
or so called formalin, to forty gallons
of water is recommended for forty to

are spread on canvas or a clean floor
and moistened thoroughly with the
liquid. Any sprinkler may be used
while the oats are shoveled over. Aft
er being covered with a blanket over

Washin gtOn, City,

JuAg . ISL, ~ u,
The democratic party is the first
to give the farmers of the country
legislative recognition. To what ex-
tent they appreciate the service thus
rendered them will be shown by the
way they vote in the national cleo
ton.
SO far the farmers have been out
Iawed IN the matter of money priv
ileges In other words they have
had TO approach those who had the
cash to loan, with their hats under
their arms, so to speak, readily ac-
eepting the terms of the money lend
ers and promptly signing papers for
the same. The banking business be-
ing apparently conducted upon a bas-

The Rural Credits Act recently
passed is a movement which has III
timately the placing of agriculture
in the forefront of professions, where
it logically belongs, Up to the cleo
ton Of President Wilson the banking
prerogatives of this country belonged
exclusively TO Wall Street and the
opportunity of borrowing money for
farm developments was lodged en-
tirely in the hands of New York
bankers Now, this is not said for
the purpose of appealing 20 preju-
dice, bat because it is the truth.
All along the farmers have occu-
pied position of singular disadyant-
age, they have had less freedom and
opportunity 70 get credit on their
read estate than manufacturers and
other commercial enterprises. And
vet ali along. laboring under this dis
elimination, they have had to sus-
tain the life of business enterprises
The measure just enacted creates
twelve land loan banks under the
direction of a Federal Board While
it NAY be delayed Justice, it's COM
ing is nevertheless opportune. The
Rural Credits Bill, along with the
liberal provisions of the Federal Re
serve Act literally puts the farmer
on an equality with all Others who
have genuine assets and makes the
great credit of the country available
to them. 1t is a thoroughly demo-
cratic step out of Wall Street to-
wards the people with the control of
the country's purse strings.
This bill is not only evidence of
craftsmanship, but good business
Judgment, for it lessons the chances
Of wealth concentration, while it
broadens the opportunities for
wealth distribution. 1t is indeed 4
source of much qualification and
genuine pleasure to note in connec-
ton with te&S measure that Senator
Hoke Smrh of Georgia. was one of
the principal as well as original ad-
vocates Of this wise and just legis-
ati0n, Just now, perhaps the in
tluence of this measure upon the
rapid, general and individual pros
perity of the average farmer in the
future cannot be properly appreciate

wholesOneness begins TO be felt.
then will the foresight of those
whose genius and patriotism gave
