farm. Such pit retains all the excre-
ment. with a small loss in food value.
1t need not be covered.
Not only are many large stacks OF
manure accommodating on too large
number of farms in this state. i'll the
opinion of Mr. Throckmorton. but
some farmers have invested in costly
equipment in the way of tracks troll
leys and sewers to dump the manure
into adjacent creeks or rivers.
Such practice is both dangerous
and wasteful-dangerous because it
pollutes the streams and shallow wells
for the farmer farther down the
stream, forcing him to use impure wa
ter. and making it easy for the spread
of contagious diseases; wasteful be
cause plant food is being placed where
1t will be lost instead of being return
ed to the soil which produced the
plant. The time is not far distant
when the farmer will hold in high re-
gard his predecessor. who conserved
the available food supply both for
himself and for posterlty.
Spread the manure as it. is formed.
and spread 1t evenly, advises Pro
lessor Throckmorton. Much OF the
manure distributed is put on the field
too unevenly and too thickiy If
spread too thickly it will burn" and
thus lose its nitrogen and have a
harmful effect where it Is put on grow
ing crops. Five to ten tons to the
acre is a sufficient amount for all but
the very poorest soils. Many farmers
are putting fifteen to twenty tons to
the acre. when greater results might
be had with one-half the amount that
they are using.

time, little or no actual work has been
done looking to that end, and today
Moscow finds itself far in the rear OF
other towns in this section in the way
of reads.
Pullman has been very active and is
now building roads and providing traf-
fic facilities towards that city from
several directions. Lewiston has ex-
pended thousands OF dollars on roads
for the purpose of bringing business
TO that point
These communities, by their pro-
Sressiyeness are gradually working
their way up to our back door and
stealing trade and business that
should be transacted in Moscow. If

ct least as easy for the trade to reach
this point as it is to reach the COM
petitive communities in this section.
This can be done only by good roads.
Some concerted action must be had on
the part of Moscow business men to
protect their territory.

Commerce has recently appointed a
comittee to determine how to meet this
situation. For this committee 10 ac-

Cover Crops and Soil.

When green organic matter. such as
Is obtained from cover crop, is used to
loan a soil it is important that the soil
be kept well irrigated after the cover
crop is plowed or disked in. The rea-
son for this. is that the ANNOUNCING
bacteria require an abundance Of wa
ter. and ammonifcation is the neces-
sary antecedent to nitrifcation of the
organic matter. In dung the ammoni-
ication has already taken place in the
heap, and when it is applied to the soil
the ammonia is absorbed by the soil
and can then be nitrified. Not under
standing this has frequently led to the
condemning CT cover crops by growers

SPREADING MANURE.
If Allowed to Stand Long 1t Loses
Much Plant Food Value.

Most Kansas farmers recognize the
value of manure in maintaining the
fertility of the soil, but few take the
proper precautions to prevent losses In
this valuable byproduct, according to
r. |. Throckmorton, associate pro-
,fessor of agronomy in the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
1.-THE manure should be hauled out
and put on the soil as soon after being
formed as convenient, the sooner the
BETTER" said Professor Throckmorton.
IF manure is allowed to stand as long
as six months it loses more than 60
per cent of its plant food value.
Manure may be stored in manure
pit situated conveniently near the barn.
The pit need not be expensive. 1t
may consist of cement floor and &C.

BURNING WORDS TO DIS
LOYALISTS.
(Tampa Tribune.)

+ - r. ~ y - r y y = y y = = = = =
In all Aemrica no man probably
hates war more sincerely and honest
ly than William Jennings Bryan.
Whatever one may think of propriety
in doing so, there is little doubt he
left President Wilson's cabinet be-
cause he thought he could more effec-
lively work for peace in private life.
But Bryan is no pro-German. He
is not a disloyalist nor traitor.
When his country has decided upon a
course of action Bryan, like the loyal
citizen he is, salutes and obeys. Hs
is good American, like most of US.
Recently, in his paper, Bryan
wrote:
Before our nation enters war it
is proper to discuss the wisdom of
going to war, but discussion is clos
ed when Congress acts. After that
no one should cloak attacks upon this
government or aid the enemy snder
the claim that he is exercising free
dom of speech.
"No sympathy will be vested up
on those who have been arrested for
unpa triotc utterances. They abuse
free speech, and this applies to at
tacks upon the allies as well as upon
the United States. We can no more
allow our allies to be crushed than we
r,n afford to be crushed. The de-
feat of our allies would throw the
whole burden of the war upon us.
We must stand together and fight it
through. There are only two sides to
war. Every American must be on
the side of the United States"
This should be the attitude of loyal
Americans. 1t answers to every dis
loyalst in the cosntry. 1t answers
the Sim Feiners who attack England
and the German-American who try to
play the German game, while skirt
ing close to seditton. 1t answers
every pro-German editor printing
stuff in which poison is insidsously
inserted. 1t answers every Senator
like Vardaman who, under his toga's
protection, talks like Junker in the
Reichstag.
1t makes our duty clear to every
one of US. There are but tive sides
to this war-the American and the
German. The English, French, Ital-
ians and Russians are with us. The
Austrians, Bulgars and Turks side
with Germany. Any man in this
country who is not ready to talk for
the American side, put up money for
it. write for it, pray for it and fight
for it is an enemy, avowed or implied
And he should be treated as such.

the cook would be particularly busy
inside.
Bennie Smith had been appointed
raider in his place. Snigger was sore
about it. Bennie was deep one and
already Snigger saw signs that he
was working for the presidency.
Gloom unmitigated descended upon
his spirits. Even the sallies Of the
sometime charming Mary Moore fail
ed to rouse him to repartee.
Nine twenty-five! Sniggers' ears
pricked in his anxiety to hear through
three walls what was going on in the
backyard outside. Supper at last. He
drew deep breath. By squash! if
they'd left so much as saucer of ice
cream behind he'd get it, yes, and eat
it, too, Mary Moore or no Mary Moore.

wanted t. Let her tell the whole

top. He had been cut out Of the
bananas and he'd been cut out of
Bennie's snake, but he'd be sawed
asunder if he was goin' to be cut out
of all the ice cream there was.
Swiftly Snigger sped to the dining
room and swiftly, with the deftness of
long practice, gathered up four sau-
GERS Of ice cream; neatly he balanced
them with the grace of jugglcr on
his outstretched hands and wrists, and
smoothly he carried them back to the
table at which he had left Mary Moore
waiting for him.
Snigger was no glutton, as gluttons
go, but this evening he was a sore,
hurt and cheated man, and he meant
to have his revenge by gobbling three
saucers of ice cream to Mary Moore's
one. Hsrror struck to his soul. Ma
ry Moore, not the unsociable animal
her cousin had proved himself, had
made room for her three best cronies
and bosom friends at the little table,
and Snigger, with tidal wave of re.
bellion rising within him, perceived
that with all his plans and schemes
he had brought just enough saucers
to go around.
Madly he slammed them on the ia
Bile. One of them upset on Mary
Moore's new PINK dress, but what did
he care. His heart was bursting with
q knowledge that no one in the room
shared, and with snort of rage he
plunged into the dining room. Ice
cream he would have though the heav-
ems fell; and even as he darted
through the door and made a mad
dash for the serving table where the
ice cream was dispensed, the heavens
fell indeed, for Mrs. McAdams, in a
subdued, agonized whisper which fell
harshly upon his ears through the
pantry door, was calling boulevard
1866" and pleading with the girl to
"ring hard. Somebody has stolen
whole freezer of my ice cream and
haven't nearly enough to go around.
You can't get them? You think they
have closed for the night? 0. you
must get them; try again, please.
They won't answer"
