FAMILY CONCERN,

In Minnesota, says Farm and Fire
side, is a Scotch farmer, named Nc.
Callum, who thought out new way
to increase the efficiency of his prop.
erty and keep his children on the
farm.
The result of this scheme is that
eight Of his nine children arc farm
ers and glad to remain SO.
Mr.. McCallum had his farm incor-
porated as a business. Reserving a
third Of tho stock for himself, he di.
vided the remainder among his chill
dren. At a directors meetng-the
directors were all his sons and daugh
ters-he was elected president, while
his sons became the different officers
of the company. The advantages OF
the scheme, says Mr.. McCallum, arc
that now each of his c.lfldren has q
direct personal interest in the family
property and the different farm de-
partments, such as hogs and poultry
have become business departments
with the manager responsible to the
corporation for tle departmental
stock and management.

Syllabus: CD The doctrine Of

deprive a party of his defense, mere
ly because he negligently or incau-
tiously, when the claim is first pre-.
scented. while denying his liability,
Omits to disclose the ground of his
defense, or states another ground
than that upon which he fin.

be evidence from which the jury
would be justified in finding that with
full knowledge of the facts there was
an intention to abandon, or not to in

ward relied upon, or that it was pur.
posely concealed, under circun.
stances calculated to, and which actu
ally did, mislead the other party to
his injury. The mere fact, there.
fore, that an insurance company, dur
ing the negotiations between the par
ties after loss, merely justifies its
refusal to pay the claim on the
ground that the premium was not
paid does not debar such insurance
company from interpOsing a defense
based upon proper pleadings that the
conditions of the policy in regard to
the making of an inventory and o!
the keeping Of books of accounts and
the keeping of the same in an iron
safe have been violated.
(2) The defense that the insured
had not made an inventory and kept
books of his purchases and sales and
kept the same in an iron safe as
provided by the terms of ais policy
is one which must be specially plead
ed in an action upon such insurance
policy.
| ca 1t is error for q trial judge
after he has refused to allow the
amendment Of an answer upon the
trial, in order that certain defense
may be interpOsed. and has thus lull
ed the plaintiff into sense of Sc
curity that no such defense can be
relied upon, to afterwards, and after
a verdict has been rendered in favor
of the plaintiff and judgment has beer
entered thereon, to allow an amend
ment to the answer setting up such
defense SO that judgment notwith
standing the verdict may be entered
thereon.

SMOKING THEM OUT.

Nebraska Republicans have been
using their presidential law to smoke
out the various aspirants. Petitions
have been circulated in that state
for Charles f. Hughes, Theodore
Roosevelt, George w. Norris, William
Hale Thompson, Henry Ford and Mr..
Estabrook, the New York attorney
and law partner of Ormsby McHarg
The Democrats, however, have
been very inactive. Wilson petitions
were circulated, but the only devel-
opment of Importance was the re-
fusal of Mayor Charles Bryan of Lin.
coin to sign on the ground that he
was not convinced the President
would run again, in view of the one
term plank of the Baltimore platform,
which only the Bryan family seem to
be taking very seriously.
Nearly all the aspirants have de.
clined the honor the Nebraska politi.
clans sought to force upon them. The
primary law of that state is peculiar
ly adapted to the smoking out pro.
cess.
What is agitating the politicians
now is whether the Nebraska Demo.
Gratis will send William Jennings
Bryan to the st. Louis convention.
It is safe to predict that Bryan will
be there in, some capacity.

BUkOWlrNA.

According to the Pail Mall Ga.
zette, the Russian army has launched
a formidable movement for tho con-
quest of iEukowina, with the idea Of
Offering this province to Rou.nania
as a bride for her support in the war.
This is London's explanation of tae
marked activity during the past three
days Oh the battlefront in Volhynia
and eastern Galicia.
There is no doubt that the Rus.
slams have launched another deter.
mined effort to improve tleir posi-.
ton on the southern part Of the 500.
mile battle line, which crosses Rus.
sian territory in almost straight
line, from Riga to Roumania. About
the only way in which they might
roll up the German line is by a sue.
cessful attack on the Austrian posi-
tons along the Sereth and the Styr.
II they break through here they will
compel readjustment of the entire
German line south Of tie Pripet riv-
err. And what is more important
they would then be in position to
reoccupy Bukowina, and to use that
province as pawn in the political
game with Roumania
Whether the offer of a province
which the Russians have already won
and lost twice over since the war
began would suffice to tempt Rouma-
mia is another question. Much de-
ponds upon what the Allies accom-
plish IN other fields. Just at present
their military prestige in the Near
East is at a low ebb. A decisive vic.
tory in east Galicia by the Russians
would .lelp restore, but would not
necessarily re.establIsh IT. @

FERTILIZER SITUATION.

American farmers arc confronted
by serious situation in reference
to fertilizer materials. As result of
the embargo placed by the German
government on the expectation of
potash, the supply of this substance
has been entirely cut off. Under nor.
nal conditions sulphuric acid, which
is required for making super-p.los.
pilates, is sold for S. or Sc a ton.
The increased demand for it since
the breaking out Of the European wal
has caused the price to rise to about
$25 ton. 1t is impossible, there.
fore, for farmers to secure super.
phosplates at prices which they have
been accustomed to pay. The nitro.
gen supply is not materially less thar
usual. .....
In 1918, when conditions were nor.
NAL, about $l25,280,00O worth of com.
mercial fertilizers was used in the
United States. OF this amount, the
farmers paid $4S,S3O,O 900 for nitrogen.
GUS substances, $56,OOO,OOO for p:los.
pilates. and $20,45O,OO0 for potash
salt. Practically all the potash salts
were imported from Germany and the
entire quantity of nitrate of soda
came from Chile. Ammonium sulphate
to the value of $3,72O,OOG was receiv.
ed from abroad, mainly from Eng
land.
There is practically no potash in
this country at the present time for
fertilizer use. The small quantities
which we're held over from former
years are now priced at from eight to
twelve times their normal value. The
investigations of the department and
the geological survey have SHOWN the
possibility Of producing from Ameri
can sources an ample supply of pot
ash salts for domestic consumption
These sources are: The giant kelr
of the Pacific coast from Lower Cal
ifornia to Alaska the alunite deposits
mainly in the mountains of Utah;
the feldspathic rocks of tie eastern
part of the United States; and the
mud of Searles lake in California.
In the unusual conditions existing
in the fertilizer trade, it is important
that all fertilizing materials on the
farm, especially those containing pot
ash, should be conserved. Tie fer
tilizer ingredients already existing
in the soil should be utilized and de
velOped to the fullest extent.
great deal can be accomplished il
this direction by deep blowing, con
slant cultivation and thorough tillage
