Scotland Yard has the greatest re
Spect for the abilities and efficiency oi

would probably be able to accomplish
much more il they had nor power to

realized that the task before the Amer

have more room to work III and more

Speaking of the Americanism or
the immigrants to this country, the
slowness of the melting pot is due to
our own fault to large extent. In
the first place an educational quail
fication for admission would help,
and in the second place, all immi-
grant children should be compelled
to attend our public schools and
learn to read and speak English.
Every child and youth in this coun-
try should get their education in
English. Iowa Falls Citizen.
Bro. Nichols is absolutely right.
Every child in the United States
should be taught the American Ian
guage and the state has right to
insist upon. such teaching. Yet
there are communities where chill
dren are allowed to reach maturity
without being taught the prevailing
Language of the country, and efforts
by, the parents are made to keep the
children as loyal to the fatherland
as possible. Germany is not the
only language against which this
charge can be sustained. There are
Italian, Irish and other centers
where only the language Of the ma
jority is taught. 1t is time for the
United States government to put a
ban upon such things and to see to
it that the melting pot melts. II
immigrants do not want to conform
to the customs and languages of this
country they should not be made
welcome, but should be shipped back

find seed of favored varieties diff
cult to secure or high in price will
do we'll to save their own seed, ac-
cording to the United States depart
ment of agriculture. The saving Of
seed from beans, peas, corn, peppers,
okra, egg plant, squash, cucumbers.
muskmelons and watermelons is very
simple, the chief requirements being
to select seed from good plants. OBJ
tanning seed from tomato, radish,
lettuce, kale, collards, cabbage, kohl

while not so simple, is not beyond
the ability of any amateur gardener.

to gather and cure seeds commonly
needed by truck growers.
