VETCH and WHEAT AS A HAY
CROP and SOIL IMPROVER

Undoubtedly more vetch and wheat
for a hay crop will be sOwn this fall
than has been sOwn in any previous
year in Kent county. This increase
is due to the difficulty experienced in
getting a stand of clover the last few
years, and even if a stand is secured
of having it withstand the winter.
Last spring most farmers experienced
a shortage in the hay crops in many
cases. and they are seeding vetch and
wheat this fall to guard against such
shortage next spring. The excellent
yields of hay, in some cases four and
five tons per acre on exceptionally
fertile soil, has shown the possibility
of this crop under the proper condi-
tions.
No doubt many of the fields seeded
this fall may fail to come up to the
expectation of the growers as some
will be sOwn too late and on a poorly
prepared seed bed without any inOcu-
lation. Vetch, after it has been well
inoculated with the bacteria that pro-
duce the nedules on the roots, will
thrive on poor soil and add much nj
trogen and increase the soils fertli-
ity. but fertile soil is necessary to
obtain a large yield of hay the first
year. Early seeding on poor and un-
inoculated soil is also essential. In
most cases the chances of success are
better if seeded before October 1st.
On very fertile soils sOwings made
much later have given excellent re-
suits.
Although vetch will grow without
incubation the growth will usually
be more rapid and the soil better inn
proved where the soil has been in
oculated by having previously grown
vetch on the same soil or by scat
tering soil from an old vetch field on
the new seeding of vetch.
Wheat is preferable to rye as
mixture with vetch for hay as the rye
natures too quickly and is past the
proper stage for hay before the vetch
has made its full growth. Wheat is
also sitter and holds up the vetch
better than rye. 1t is almost impos-
sible to cut Yetch for hay unless it is
grown with wheat or rye as it falls
down badly and makes a tangled
mass.
1t will be worth while for those
seeding yetch for the first time to Sc
cure from someone who has previous
ly grown vetch sufficient soil from an
old vetch field to apply at least $50
pounds of this soil per acre on the
piece to be seeded and harrow it in
before it becomes dried out in the
bright sun This soil for incubation
can be well and evenly distributed by
first screening and applying through
the fertilizer attachment of the grain
drill
1t will pay to use about 300 pounds
of 16 per cent rock at time of seeding.
Vetch, like other legumes, respOndes
well to the use of lime if the soil is
acid.
For further information concerning
this crop inquire of your county agent
H. H. Zimmerley, Phone 429. Dover.

STRIKERS AND patriotism

At this time when a million or
more young Americans, the flower OF
the Nation, are giving up everything,
their Jobs, and chances for the future
being the least of their sacrifices, In
preparing to serve their country, those
who are left behind, either because
they are over age, have dependents,
or because they are vitality necessary
to industries of the country, should
be no less regarded as privates in the
industrial army, and should no less
Re subject to the stern discipline de-
manded by military necessity. 1t Is
quite true that labor should not be
imposed upon permanently because of
rigid conditions; on the other hand
that element in labor which endeav-
ors to rule things with a high hand
and enforce its own selfish desires, re-
CARELESS of labor as whole. or of the
country's needs, should not be dealt
with lightly. II working pan or a
labor union makes demands on in
dustry which it Is not willing to sub
init to arbitration. that man or that
union is just as much Stacker as
the man seeking to escape military
duty, and should be treated just as
severely. This Is no time for temper
izing, nor lenient indulgence. The
sooner the country realizes that ev-
cry individual in 1t is part Of the
army, and adopts industrial conscrip-
ton, the sooner will the war be over,
and the less disaster and needless
hardship will devolve upon those who
are trying to do their bit.-Exchange.

CURLING ALIEN ENEMIES

The surprise is not that the govern
ment has taken steps to curb alien
enemy activity by forcing Germans
resident in thif couthy to register
and to comply with other regulations
designed to safeguard the nations
interests, but that this action was not
decided upon until six months after
we entered the war.
There is nothing whatever vindic-
tive about the governments regula-
tions, and, in fact, they are much
less strict than those Germany i'm
poses upon Americans and her other
alien enemies-and this notwith-
standing that there are about 100000
unnaturalized Germans in the United
States as against only a few hundred
American citizens in Germany. Nor
is the movement directed against the
alien enemy who obeys the law. The
government is forced to place restric-
tions upon all in order that the COM
paratively few cannot escape.
The imperative necessity of such a
measure of self-defense is shown by
the fact that since the United States
went to war $25,00O,000 worth of
foodstuffs have been destroyed by
fire and that fully $20.O0O,000 of this
is laid to enemy spies or their sympa-
thizers.
Under the provisions of the presi-
dents proclamation alien enemies
including Germans only-not only
must register. but they also are pro-
hibited from approaching within 100
yards of waterfronts, docks, railroad
terminals or storage houses and are
not allowed in the District of Colum-
bia during the war. They are barred
from employment on all vessels on the
ocean within the three-mile limit as
we'll as on the Great Lakes and may
not even travel in their own motor
boats. The only way In which they can
traverse these waters is on public fer
rtoS.
The attorney general is given au-
thority to declare additional prohibit
ed zones whenever he deems 1t advis-
able. The proclamation does not. how
ever, interfere with existing regula-
lions forbidding enemies to live within
half mile of munition plants. ship
yards and other government establish
ments. All registered persons must
carry their registration cards but may
not be required to report periodically
to the officials.
The public can be of material as
sistance in helping to carry out the
provisions of the proclamation. Alien
enemies who fail to register will be
