PUSH CULTIVATION OF
 CORN AND COTTON

Persistent early cultivation largely determines the success of the corn or cotton crop.
 It not only makes it possible to control the grass and weeds which must not be toerated be- cause they hinder the growth of the plants and utilize the fertil- ity needed for the crop but stirr- ing the soil helps to warm it by permitting a circulation of air which is necessary for the roots. Warm soil hastens the growth of young plants. By, all means do not let the corn become stunt ed in growth. Good early culti- vation also helps to put the cot ton in a thriving condition and enables it to resist disease. Push the cultivation of both corn and cotton without delay. Do your work thoroughly. Cultivae af- ter each rain, as soon as the soil is in condition to work, and in dry weather it will be well to go over the field every ten days or two weeks.

"Our policy has been directed to making the government and majority turn away from the reichstag resolu- ton of July 19. (Peace without an- hexations and indemnities). In that we have succeeded.

 In other words. all Germany is now planning both annexations and indem- nitles, such as will leave her without 2 formidable opponent in the world.
 Can we make peace now and leave Germany, flushed with victory, in pos session of all she has gained and lust Ing for further conquest7 If we did, would not the whole world live in perpetual terror of German aggres- sion, each country awaiting it's turn to ee gobbled rs?
