A GOOD SUGGESTION

We are today printing a letter
from r. +. Bradbury that should
command the close attention of ey-
cry water user and business man in
this county. 1t offers solution Of
problem that has been one of the
most veaatious of those confronting
the men of this county who have
sought to maintain an organization to
look after the commercial interests
of Klamath. That is the question of
moeting the expense of a competent
secretary. Heretofore the Chamber
Of Commerce or the Commercial Club,
or whatever name the organization
may have borne. would be organized
and launched with great eclat. 1t
then the secretary would be reduced
to the humiliating experience of 60
ing from door to door with his hat
in hand to collect his salary. AS a
result. the effectiveness of the organ
iztaion suffered. both in the opinion
of .the community and the secretary,
whose self-respect finally forces him
to step down and out and let the or
ganization go to pieces.
Mr.. Bradbury comes forward with
a constructive suggestion that must,
because of its great merit, command
the attention of the interests Of the
county. He shows his keen grasp on
the possibilities OF cooperative
movement on the part of both organ
izations, as well as extending 1t fur
ther to include the Good Roads AssO-
citation, the various irrigation dis
tricts, the numbering interests, and
everything that has a bearing on the
development of Klamath County. His
idea is to gather all these into one
great federated association, where
one will help the other by a union
OF fcroes that will enable them to
bring every possible pressure where
first move in this direction will be
the union of the Commercial Club
and the Water Users Association
through the joint secretaryship Then
will follow, as natural sequence. the
gathering in, through a union direct
crate. or some sucn plan of represen-
tatives of the other organizations OF
the county. Let the re-organizers of
the Commercial Club take up this
splendid suggestion and aid in bring
ing II to a successful development.

WORLD MUST HAVE NITROGEN
Men Of Science Preparing for the Time
When the Chilean Nitrate Fields
Are Exhausted.

Farmers of Europe and America
have been almost entirely dependent
for nearly a century upon the Chilean
nitrate fields, which have stood liter
ally between the world and starvation.
Behind a plateau 5000 feet above the
sea level and 20 miles from the Pa
cific coast, is dreary, parched, almost
rainless strip of land, where nature
has deposited millions of tons of nitro
gen In the form Of nitrate of soda.
Not only the power to produce crops,
but also the power to wage war and
to develop many essential industries
depends upon nitrogen. Before the
war the German chemist, OSWALD,
wrote: "If great war were to break
out between two great powers, one Of
which were to prevent the export Of
saltpeter from the few ports Of Chile,
1t would thereby make 1t impossible
for the enemy to continue longer than
its ammunition supply would last"
Germany had accumulated 100000
tons of Chilean saltpeter before the
war. It is estimated that the Chilean
nitrate beds will be exhausted some
time during the present century. Sci
entists and engineers, therefore, are
bending every effort to other means Of
supply. Nitrogen is now being recov-
cred from the air by various processes
and In several countries.

From plowboy to member Of parlia-

seph Arch who recently died at the
age of %. He was a unique figure in
English parliamentary life, being in
1888 the sole workingman member Of
the house of commons. At that time
there was no kind of labor party in
existence there. Mr.. Arch achieved
fame as the champion Of the English
farm laborer. when the tiller of the
soil reared his family on wage Of
50 week, subsisted chiefly on barley
bread and hardly knew the taste of tea
or sugar. In 1872 he enrolled 200 farm
workers in an organization that came

If, for any reason, the brooder is not

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Alternate grazing as relief for con
tinuous grazing has long been recon-
mended by experts, but little practiced
by farmers. 1t involves the division of
pastures so that each portion of the
field may be given alternate periods OF
rest during the grazing season. Grass
makes maximum yield If allowed
definite periods of uninterrupted
growth. However, the extra expenses
for fences and labor deter many farm
ers from following this system which,
although 1t is adapted for practice in
some sections of the country, 1t is not
so favorable In others.
DIsklng and Narrowing.
Cultural treatment, such as disking
and narrowing, are recommended
where a sod-bound condition of the
grass develops, as the slight mulch
ing of the surface obliterates weeds
and also improves the mechanical and
physical condition of the soil. Gen
erally speaking. there is considerable
expense attached to disking and har-
rowing, and unless the returns are
commensurate with the cost, farmer
Is scarcely justified in thus treating
hiE grazing lands. particularly if other
work on the farm is competing for
his attention at the same time.

The average disk will cut and turn
sods to some extent no matter how

mental than beneficial. Ordinarily, in

KNEW AND LOVED STEVENSON
Old Resident of Tahiti Proud of tiis
Association With the Famous
Romanticisx.

In the town of Papeete, on the Is
land Of Tahiti, lives an old man named
Donat. former comrade of Robert
Louis Stevenson when the famous ro-
manifest was journeying through the
South Sea islands. Donat loves to
tell of the days when the writer used
to rest In his home and listen to the
weird ghost tales which the old man
told and which Stevenson wove into
some Of his stories.
Their friendship began when the
writer rented house to rest In after
trip through the Marquesas Is
lands. On Donat's grounds were the
only vegetable gardens in the is
land. the formation of which was
mostly coral. sand and rubble. Each
morning the old man would send to
Stevenson's house a great basket of
! fresh vegetables. fruit and coconuts,
and later when the author came to
/ thank Donat for the gift the two would
sit in the shade and talk for hours.
Nothing delights Donat more than
! to talk Of his gentle friend and the
days when they were together. He
gives an intimate picture Of, Steven
sons simple life on the island. Of his
rambles on the beach among the COCO
nut groves, Of his friendly associations
with the natives. When Stevenson left
the island he invited Donat aboard his
ship for dinner and presented him a
valuable ring as souvenir of their
friendship. HE was good man. q
