A CROP ON THE sUMMER-FAL-
LOW.

The land that is summer-fallawed pro-
duces no crop but is being put in con
dition to raise a better crop next
year.eEqually good preparation can b
given the land by growing corn or po-
tatoes on it. The corn should be
grown in hills or if in rows not more
than n stalk per foot of row. When
the corn is planted too thick it does
not make so good growth as it does
not leave the soil in good condition for
next years crop. Thick planted corr
pumps out too much moisture.

HUsTLING THE CORN CROP

Shallow cultivation is one way of
hustling the co n crop. The surface
soil warns up first and contains the
most available plant food so that is
where many of the corn roots go.
Deep cultivation will cut these roots
which results in a set back for the
corn plant.

Amsterdam, April 2s.-Directly
contrary to the governments ap-
peals, the Socialist minorities in the
reichstag and the Prussian Dandtag
have adopted resolutions faYoring a
general strike on May day, according
to Berlin dispatches today.
Gen. Groener's proclamation, de-
handing that workers call of their
strike and bitterly excoriating strik-
ers as guilty of treason, has aroused
considerable resentment among Ger
mon Socialists, Berlin dispatches in
dicated today. Formal protest
against Croener's manifesto was re-

committee
David Sohn, one of these, predict

workers would be undertaken by the
government if demands such as

FORECASTS GREAT EFFORT
Correspondent Says Germany viii
Strike by Land and Sea.

London, Jan. 24.-The Daily Chron.
icle's Amsterdam correspondent sends
the following;
Il have just received reliable news
from Germany that the moment when
all hopes of success for the peace in
trigues must be abandoned and when
naval and military preparations are
complete there will be a sudden gen
eral and widespread return to the
most violent warfare, in which every
shred OF restraint will be thrown to
the winds.
Probably within a month frightful-
ness will break out In all Its ferocity.
Vast hordes OF troops, very largely
consisting OF men between the ages
OF forty and forty-nve, with young men
of the newest classes OF recruits, are
now equipped and have been sent
chiefly to western Germany.
This land onslaught will be waged
simultaneously with utmost destruc-
tiveness at sea, where the submarines,
which official guesses say number
nearly 800, will sink on sight"

ROOSEVELT SCORES
WILSON'S MESSAGE

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Jan. 24.-Label.
ing President Wilson's address as a
erandiloquent promise made in an
attempt to conceal" the pitiful ig.
nominy and Sinking of the admins
t%ration, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
here took issue with the peace argu-
ment voiced before the senate.
Unless the words of our govern.
ment in this matter are to be accept.
ed as the idlest and most empty of all
idle and empty words" he said, we
must remember two of three plain
bits of homely fact.
THE first Ia that 1t is worthless to
make promises about the future un.
less in the present we keep those we
have already made. Unless this gov.
eminent Is prepared at this moment
to take an emphatic position as re.
CARDS such a hideous outrage as the
deportation of the men and women OF
Northern France and Belgium it Is
both ridiculous and insincere for us to
mouth about standing for righteous.
ness In the nebulous future.
Moreover, unless this government
can bring the peace OF justice to Mex
leo, 1t had better not talk about pro-
curing the peace of justice through.
out the world.
"As regards freedom of the seas the
most important element in it Is free
dom from murder and until this gov
eminent has taken an effective stand
to prevent the murder of its citizens
by submarines on the high seas 1t
makes itself ar object Of derision by
speaking for the freedom of the seas
