Fairness to Hughes,
AS a Matter of News,
Gives Space to Item

DELPHIA, Ind, Sept. 2t.-Judse
Charles E. Hughes, the Republican
nominee for President, today was
given an enthusiastic reception by
the Republicans and was shown
honor, as a distinguished visitor,
by the public generally.
In his address, Judge Hughes
said he would give the country
prosperity not based upon the war
in EUROPE; that he proposes to
have the country's prosperity rest
upon protection Of American in
dustry; to have employers pay
standard wages, and to resist the
un-Americon policy Of the Demo-
cratic administration which, in his
opinion, would before long disturb
tine social order and cause un.
procedented trouble.

 Tests show that the roots of these plants constitute only about 10 per cent of the whole, so that the great est amount of fertility can be secured only by pasturing them of on the soil, by turning them under, or by feeding and returning the manure.
