Protecting Newly Set Plants.

Newly set plants should be protect
ed for day or two from the sun, and
the protection should be continued till
it is evident the plants are getting q
hold on the soil and securing supply
Of soil water. If this is done, the new.
ly set plants will generally live and
thrive afterward. The only time when
protection is not needed is when the
setting-out is done just at the begin
ming of wet spell, which, of course
is desirable time for transplanting
One nurseryman says that he trans.
plants at any time through the spring
or summer, whenever he can be sure
he is to be favored by three or four
days of rain or mist. However, every
spring in great many plants are lost
by not having protection from the sun
or by not having the protection con.
tinued till the plants can live without
it.

Farmers Should Plan For Next Winter
Feeding.

Feeding.
Build silos!
Economy demands that all crops be
taken care Of this year that can he
turned into high priced meat or milk.
Indications point to high priced feeds.
Every silo filled last fall in Kansas
paid for itself in one season, and the
chances are that similar results may
be obtained by those who build sllos
this year, says A. S. Neale, specialist
in dairying, division Of extension, Kan
sas State Agricultural college.
The wide awake farmer is planning
right now for next winters feeding,
and these plans should include silage.
Indications are that more silos will be
built the coming summer than in any
previous year. = Silo manufacturers are
already receiving heavy orders. The
farmer who intends to buy should Or
der at once, while he who would build
should be planning for labor or ma
terials.
In addition to building silO, an ef-
fort should be made to secure some
good, dry roughage to 60 along with
the silage, says Mr.. Neale. Those who
have alfalfa or clover need look no
further than taking good care of these
crops at the proper time. Those who
do not have these should make an
effort to get some other leguminous
forage.

Deep Flowing Improbable.

Because blowing to depth of seven
and one-half inches has returned about
the same yields and Is much cheaper
the Ohio experiment station does not
recommend the use Of deep tilling or
subsoil plow. The expensive operation
Of plowing fifteen inches deep with a
deep tilling plow has returned less than
4 bushel of corn and subsoiling only
two bushels more than ordinary plow-
ing as an average for six years. Oats
following corn has returned three and
q quarter bushels more on land plowed
to ordinary depth than to fifteen inches,
and a bushel and half more than on
land where subsoil plow was used.

Raoe For Sheep and Hogs.

Dwarf Essex rape is probably the
premier forage crop for both sheep and
swine. Successive crops can be planted
and it will do well during any peri
cd of the summer. For early June
pasture a mixture of one bushel of oats
and five pounds of rape per acre is
recommended by the Pennsylvania
State college, Two or three weeks
later a field may be seeded to rape
alone at the rate Of five to eight pounds
per acre.

GERMANS HURLED BACK WITH HEAVY LOSSES DURING MOVES
 LED BY TWO GROWN PRINCES

Bitter attacks by the troops of Crown Prince Rupprecht and the Ger man Crown Prince are being made against the positions vital to the de lenses of Lens and Loan, held by the British and French. Field Mar shal Haig and General Nivelle are holding their recent gains and throw ing back the attacking Germans, with heavy losses.
 South of the Souchez river, one of the natural barriers to Lens, the Ger mans have made. a third attempt to recapture the positions taken by the British Thursday and for third time have been thrown back. A momen- tary footing was won by Prince Rup- precht's men, aided by liquid fire, in the new British position but a Brit ish counter attack recovered the lost trenches and left the British line un- changed.

 BaIfour Stirs Hearers
 MT. Balfour stirred his hearers to high enthusiasm when he said:
 "We have not come here as in structors of the American republic, but it is important for me to proclaim my inalterable conviction that we have reached crisis when the whole of civilization must rise up and voice its appeal for the preservation of hu- man liberty.
 What has brought us together?" he asked What is, the meaning to be found in the crowding of your streets in welcome to us?"
 The answer lay in the fact, he said. that America has felt the menace of German autocracy, which he char acterized as an imminent and over mastering peril"
 What is that peril?" MT. Balfour continued. q will tell you. it is the calculating and remorseless use of civilized weapon to carry out the ends of pure barbarian.
 Different Lesson Tonight
 'The Germans have co-ordinated every means of science. not to better their own people. but to dominate others. The world is too full of un- scrupulous ambitions for us not to recognize it in the present circum- stances.
 Science has enormously expanded the ways and means of destruction, but always it has been believed and hoped that this would be controlled by considerations of humanity. We have been taught, however, a differ ent lesson by the ruling force of Germany. we have been taught that war has been made more heinous than ever There is not difference in any part of the world that Ger man diplomacy has not tried to in crease. that German money has not tried ta aggravate.

WESTERN RAILROADS DEMAND INCREASES
 IN FREIGHT RATES
Southern Pacific Representa- tive Declares Increase Is Alp solutely Necessary To Meet Conditions of War.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The west ern roads today closed their case in the hearing before the interstate com merce commission on a proposed coun- try wide increase of fifteen per cent on all freight rates, and a recess was taken until May 23 when shippers representatives of state railroad com missions and others will testify.
 W. B. Riddle, of the Frisco, said his road needed at least a 20 per cent in crease. Julius Kruttschnitt of the Southern Pacific declared a revenue increase absolutely imperative if the roads are to meet the increased de mands of the war.
 In closing their case, the carriers offered to present any additional in- formation desired and counsel for the shippers, who have protested that railroad witnesses were not telling the whole story about their financial con dition, immediately submitted re- quests for specific data. Some were approved by the commission and some were taken under advisement.
 At the request Of Clifford Thorne, of the shippers counsel. the commis- sion ordered the roads to submit data regarding stock certificates issued or sold since 1915, the dates of issue and sale, the amounts and the amount realized. In addition the carriers agreed to furnish more information about the source of coal supplied to the roads.
