Spare the Corn Roots.

In a four-year experiment at
the Virginia Experiment Station
corn cultivated three times made
three pecks more to the acre than
corn cultivated five times. Corn
kept free from weeds with the
least possible stirring of the soil
made ten bushels less to the acre
than the corn cultivated three
times. In a series of expert
ments running over several years
and covering every part of the
country where corn is extensive
ly grown, the killing of the
weeds without cultivation has
given practically the same re!
suits as thorough cultivation.
Only in the South and the drier
parts of the West has cultivation
given better results than simple
weed-killing.
Some farmers might conclude
from this that they can afford to
leave their corn fields uncultivat-
ed, or that they can quit cultivat-
ing very early. Either conclu-
sion would be risky. Small yields
result whenever weeds are allow
ed to grow. The largest yields
have come from fields cultivated
more than the usual number of
times. Late cultivation of corn
may pay. 1t will pay only when
the early cultivation has been
frequent and when the late cul.
tivation is very shallow.
1t is beyond question that many
farmers reduce their yields OF
corn by the last one or two work.
ings they give it. The value Of
corn roots is not yet appreciated,
Any cultivation that destroys
many roots is likely to do harm
rather than good. Kill the weeds
in the corn field and spare the
roots of the corn.

that it would be printed if his
signature accompanied it.
He very promptly declined the
tender, remarking that 1T would
hurt his business" There are a
lot Of people willing, anxious in
fact, for things to be said in the
newspapers providing they hurt
the business of somebody else
and not their own.
What newspaper has not had
this very same experience with
this very same yellow tadpole of
a citizen who splutters about
what ought to be printed in a
newspaper and what ought to be
omitted? And yet when you in
vite the coward to be responsible
for the manuscript he wants you
to publish, he whines like a sick
dog, skulks behind this pretext
and that, and wobbles out of the
Office with a crouch.
That is not all. He writes in
that he will stop his paper if you
don't print what he himself won't
sign. Yet if you were to suggest
to him that his threat to stop his
paper is pure and simple coercion
through a threat of blackmail he
would yowl like a tomcat with its
tail stepped on.
The fellow who threatens to
stop his paper is trying to do the
newspaper in a small way the
very thing that he would con-
demn as criminal in a corporation
that tried in any way to throttle
the freedom of the press.
Threatening to stop the paper is
an attempt at intimidation.
But it is worse than that
Threatening to stop the paper is
a confession of bigoted intoler
ance on the part of the delin
quent subscriber that pulls sucf
a bone. for it means that he doe:
not want the paper to have the
courage of it's own convictions
after all, but insists that it shal
have only the courage of the
convictions of the stop-my-papei
threatener.

Hoist by his own Petard.

At last a ray of light is seen
filtering through the dark and
noxious news print situation.
The Federal Trade Commission
has recommended that legislation
be enacted to permit the govern
ment to take over the paper mills
and govern distribution and fix
prices at cost plus fair profit.
The step was enevitable. De-
fiant not alone of the public in
terest, but of the government
itself, which through its COM
mission established the existence
of a price fixing combination. the
manufacturers have only them
selves to blame for any control
of their business that may be
established. They have seen
small publishers by the hundreds
driven into bankruptcy by their
oppressive methods. They have
ignored the pleas of the country
and the city newspaper owners
alike. They have remained sill
ent and sullen in the face of re-
peated public protests. They
have set at naught even the a.
greement made with the Federal
Trade Commission, which desired
only a return to honest business
practices on the part of men
whose acts warranted severest
condemnation. Now, patience
exhausted. the government is to
consider taking over their bust
ness of papermaking. The SOON
er the better. Of course we shall
hear loud talks about confiscation
and the undue interference with
private rights. But the time fci
talk has passed. Print paper is
a necessity. In its relation to
modern warfare it is as import.
ant as guns or powder. 1t has
done more to build the British
finance than any other element
in the present conflict. And il
is equally as important in this
country as it is in Great Britain,
With our great stretches of ter
ritory it if far more important
here. And if the paper manu-
factures believe that congress:
will be slow to recognize this
fact they are living in a fool'
paradise. Nothing now but tn,
quickest and most radical move
to sell news print paper at
reasonable price and establith al
honest distribution will prevent
remedial action by the congress
Both house and senate are fully
alive to the viciousness of the i'm
position that has been foisted OF
the newspaper publishers of tn,
country by the paper barons
And they know how to balanc,
in the scale the patriotism of tn
newspaper publishers of tn
country as against the graspinI
methods of the news pape
makers. Once such a bill as ha
been recommended gets befor
congress its passage is likely
be swift and certain if the news
paper publishers so desire
Shrieks about the invasion Q
private rights will then be to
late. The news print bandit wi
be hoist by his own petard. (
