CUTTING SWEET CLOVER

If a second crop of sweet clover is
to be secured the first crop must be
cut rather high. 1t was found at the
North Dakota Experiment Station
that when cut IL to IA inches high a
good second crop came on. If cut
lower than that the second crop was
small.
The buds from which the second
crop comes are produced in the angle
between the branches and the stem.
When the plant is cut below the lower
branches, the buds are all cut so that
there is nothing to start second

HOW TO TELL GOOD CANNING
RIJRRERS

/. 1t should be elastic. Stretch
it little. 1t should come back to
its original size. Lay it on one of
the others to see if it is the same
size.
2. Bend the rubber back on itself
then to the other side and note if
there is any cracked appearance. A
good rubber will not show any cracks
or breaks.
3. Rubbers should measure two
and one fourth inches inside diameter
and should be one twelfth of an inch
thick. That is, one dozen should
measure one inch.
1t is important to use only good
rubbers. Three fourths of the cam
ned stuff that spoils is due to poor
rubbers. Always use new rubbers.

BELGIUM'S FOOLISHNESS"

King Albert and his associates in the Belgian government in 1914, gave the su- preme exhibition of what many persons might have called foolishness. Germany desired to pass through Belgium, in order to strike France on its unprotected from tier It was ready to pay handsomely for the privilege. Yet the Belgian govern ment refused the bribe.
 Its decision meant Louvain, and the long series of horrors that followed-the burn ing of towns, the murder of hostages, all the terrors that a brutal army could bring to a conquered territory. But it deliber- ately accepted the risk of the long agony and destruction, rather than peace at the price of shame and dshonor.
 Today who questions the wisdom as well as the righteousness of the choice? The record written by Belgium in the hearts of men is an imperishable gain to civilization. It is not too much to say that the little na- tion's decision was profound moral sig nificance to the world that the world Is different because of it.

A LEAKING TREASURY
(Tucson Citizen.l

(Tucson Citizen.)
 It is popular pastime among papers of the state these days to advise Thos. E. Campbell, the new governor, how to run the states The Citizen has been indulging in this new indoor sport along with the other dailies The Phoenix Gazette thinks that the greatest service the new governor can perform is to get rid of some of the sur plus job holders at the capital The Douglas Dispatch gives as its opinion that his first duty should be to cleanse the Augean stables of the satellites of the Hunt machine. The Prescott Journal Miner also believes he should clean house from cellar to garret and he has taken the advice of this journal by appointing the editor his private secre- tary to help do the job. The Citizen has already said that his first task should be to fire the board of regents of the university and sever Johnnie Hughes from the office of chancellor.
 On one point, however, all of the papers are agreed and that is that economy should be the watchword of the new administra- ton. The Phoenix Messenger, a demo- cratic paper, which supported Golfer, sug- gests that there be thorough examination of the books of all state offices, with view to stopping the leaks. The Messenger does not contend that there has been graft but gross waste.
 Arizona has been surfeited with money since the mines began to bear their just bur den of taxation and the state offices have been spending it like drunken sailors. The sooner they are pulled up short the better. If the legislature will give the new governor its cooperation we believe he can save the taxpayers thousands of dollars without iln- pairing the efficiency of the state govern ment.
 It is true that liberal appropriations will be needed for certain reconstruction enter prises, but neither the small taxpayers nor the large ones will object to money expend- ed for this purpose as long as they get their moneys worth. Now that the contract system has been restored, on state work, it will be possible to make public improve ments at reasonable cost.
 Everybody expects Governor Campbell to clean house on January l bat once this is accomplished he must turn his attention to stopping the leaks in the treasury if he is to make good as governor.

latter, he may accomplish much good at the Versailles council that shall precede the peace council.
 Who can say?
 The temptation to go Is as great as can be- The temptation to fall before all this for eign flattery is greater than can be imag- ined Surely it was safer and saner to stay. The highest duty to country was to stay, As sure as fate there is to be reaction for President Wilson and he is rushing on to greater heights for greater fall.
