REELECTION OF MIR. G0MPERS.

The reelection of Samuel Gompers as president of the American Fed eration of Labor was foregone con clusion after the defeat of the paci- fist Socialist faction at Buffalo. but it will be a source of qualification to every American who has appreciateu the critically important service that Mr. Gomrers has been performing since we entered the war.
 MT. Gompers aas proved himself 100 per cent patriot in this great test of all Americans. He has la bored faithfully to support the gov ernment in preparing the nation to take it's part in the struggle against German military aggression and he has done so without sacrificing the interest of organized labor in any es- sential. On the contrary. he has done more than any one man in the labor movement to prevent it from being misled by traitors and false prophets into acts injurious to it's influence in the country and rb1 structive to it's progress. The com nrehension of the ideals and legiti- mate intertsts involved in the war, shown by MT. Gompers and his al lies in the labor movement-by lead CTS like Walker and Olander of our own state strsngthensthe whole cause of labor throughout the coun- try. It is because of the intelligence and spirit of these leaders that Am. erican labor has taken its place be- side the fighting labor of Great Brit ain. France, and Italy, and when the war is won it can look back with pride to it's share in the victorious peace of democracy.

UNNECESSARY ISSUES BARRED.

Bankers throughout the nation are sald to oppose the unnecessary is. suance of stock during the war. nor the unnecessary borrowing of money in the form of bonds.
 This is a move in the right d,rcc- ton. The federal government Is reaching deeply into the investment powers of the nation, and unneces- sary competition for money by cor. poratlons would be in the light Of unpatriotic activity.

really fears is not efficiency, Du, nationwide co-operation-the kind that to large extent does away with the individuality he lands.
 Individuality is a grand thing-in theory. But we cannot win the war with it. About the first thing the allies learned in the first year of the war was that individualistic conduct led to disaster. There must be CO operative efficiency in which the claims of the individual must be set aside in favor of the claims of the nation. And since learning that les son, the allies and our own govern ment-have been giving snort snr1ft to that individualsm and liberty" that gave aid and comfort to the kaiser.
 Even now the allies are sufYering from a remnant of national individ rality. They have been individualiz- ing on their various fronts, and are now confronted with a centralized conduct of the war to prevent such disasters as that of Italy.
 lndividualism has gone to seed if we don't have centralized efficiency there will be nothing worth while in the future. Individualism cannot save humanity-only cooperation and the one for all and the all for one spirit, can achieve that end.

Fertilizer FOR TRUCK
Three Types Used in Cultivation
of Potato Crop.
Soy Beans. cowpeas and Velvet Beans
Are Chiefly Used by Truckers Along
Atlantic Seaboard for
Green Manuring.
(By L. T.. Correctly


Preliminary results of Investigations
o in progress to determine the kind
and quality of fertilizer best adapted
to truck crops indicate that on the
soils of the Long Island and Norfolk
areas the source Of potash for a potato
fertilizer should be sulphate Of potash,
and that the use of large quantities Of
nitrate in the form of nitrate Of soda
Is not economical. The treatments
which show greatest promise in both
areas as n result of two years trial
are heavy applications Of %cottonseed
meal, tankage, and sulphate of potash.
Three types of fertilizers are used
in the cultivation of potatoes, namely,
commercial fertilizers, green mannres,
and farmyard manures. Commercial
fertilizers are extensively used in the
production Of truck-crop potatoes,
particularly or the Atlantic seaboard.
II they are supplemented at all it is
by growing q crop of green manure
upon the land the previous season and
turning it under so that it will become
thoroughly decomposcd before the po-
tatoes are planted. For this purpose,
soy beans, coWpeas, or velvet beans
are chiefly used. These should be

Equipment Is Costly.

Your fruit trees and bushes, your
crops, your animals are the machines
of your farm mandatory. Are they
efficient? Do they return to you the
biggest profit on the raw material and
labor spent on them? You must see
that your machinery of production is
worthy OF your time and labor. Low
quality, nan-gunranteed trees may LOOK
cheap, but they take as much room,
time and work as the fine kinds,
says American Fruit Grower.

SCRUB STOCK IS EXPENSIVE
Demand for Purebred Animals IN.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Is Sometimes
More Than Halt of Herd.

The unprecedented demand for pure
bred live stock will sooner or later re-
suit In the marketing Of many animals
eligible to registry. which are inferior
as individuals and which may prove
poor breeders. S. T. Simpson Of the
Missouri College Of Agriculture re-
minds buyers that the present high
values afford all the better reason for
investing in only good breeding ami
mails even though they appear high in
price. In this way only can the pres
ent high standard be maintained and
the scrub purehred finally eliminated.
The use of the registered scrub can
but discourage the cause Of purebred
sires and better live stock. The breed
er who markets such individuals will
ultimately suffer the criticism Of those
who know good live stock, and finally
be Disseminated against in buying and
selling. The purchaser Of the scrub
purebred can breed nothing but infe-
rior individuals Sc long as he per-
sists in buying IL i~'t~~ec with no
regard 1OA iiitiLtiAlll 4--N-4.
The purebrcd sire is the best means
Of live stock Improvement. Whether
good or bad he is half the herd and
sometimes more. For this reason
the selection Of the sire demands
equally as much attention as the en-
tire group of females, and it is far
more important to have a good sire,
both in individuality and breeding,
than to have one or two good females.
If sacrifices must be made, let them
occur in the selection Of the females.
Better still, let every be a good
one, both in breeding and individual
excellence.
