manding what shall be done The organization of industry. The ge- of individual initiative and of prac- tical business arrangement. Those who really desire a new relationship D between capital and labor can read fly find a way to bring it about and perhaps federal legislation can help more than state legislation could.
 ''The object of all reform in this especial matter must be genuine dem ocratization of industry, based upon a full recognition of the right of those who work. in whatever rank to par ticipate in some organic way. Some positive legislation is practicable. The Congress has already shown the eway to one reform which should be work ed wide, by establishing the eight hour day as the standard day in every field of labor over which it can control It has sought to find the way to pre- vent child labor,' and will, hope and believe, presently find it. It has serv- ed the whole country by leading the way in developing the means of pre- serving and safeguarding life and health in dangerous industries.
 ''It can now help in the difficult task of new form and spirit to indus trial organizations by cooperating the several agencies of conciliation and adjustment whicf~have been brought into existence by the difficulties and mistaken policies of the present man agement of industry. and by setting up and developing new federal agen- cies of advice and information which serve as a clearing house for the best experimentals and the best thought on this great matter. upon which every thinking man must be aware that the future development of society directly depends Agepcies o< international council and suxges-

their cooperation. But as to pro hibition and tariff and internal rev enue taxation the case will be more doubtful Those are problems of which no very clear sentiment -appar- ently has been formed in either of the great parties.
 The recommendations regard ding Ia- bor were general, but the President called attention to the need for partnership between capital and la- bor and genuine Characterization of Industry.
 On tariff revision the President said the United States should have the means of properly protecting itself when there was danger of discrimina- tion against it by foreign nations.
 Though we are as far as possible from desiring to enter upon a course of retaHation.'' he said, i've must frankly face the fact that hostile leg tslation by ether nations is not be- yond the range of possibilities, and that it may have to be met by coun- ter legislation.
 Although the United States will gladly and uhhesitatingly join in the program of international disarrna- ment, 1t will nevertheless, be a policy of obvious prudence to make certain of the successful maintenance of many strong and equipped social plants"

THE BACK YARD ORCHARD

The back yard orchard will make
as valuable a return for the average
family as does the vegetable garden
itself. Everyone who puts out gar
den can just as well be growing "a
small homo orchard in it, according to
j. c. Written of the University of
Missouri College of Agriculture. The
cultivation given the VEGETABLES is
just what is required by the young
trees.
Select apples, cherries, plums,
peaches and pears of varieties that
will furnish succession from the
Early Richmond cherry, which ripens
in May, to the late keeping apples
like Ingrams and Lansingburg which
keep until the following May. One
tree Of each variety is enough.
Apples trees should be planted rs
to 30 feet apart each way and plum
and peach trees 16 to 20 feet apart.
One-year old trees should be selected
for planting, although in the case of
the apple, sour cherry and pear, two
year old trees will usually transplant
successfully if they have not grown
too large. They should be set about
as deep as they stood in the nursery.
AS soon as they are planted the tops
should be pruned back somewhat.
Fruit trees should be given as
thorough cultivation as corn or vege-
tables, at least until they reach bear
ing age. Any kind of garden vege-
tables, or strawberries and other
small fruits, may be grown between
the tree rows. If rank growing crop
like corn grows higher than the trees
one row should be left out, prefera-
bly, north and south, in the tree row
SO that the fruit trees will not be
shaded until they are well established.
Low growing vegetables or berries
may be planted as close to the trees
as desired.
More complete directions for plant
ing the back yard orchard and for
pruning apple trees are given in Ex-
tension Circular IS of the University
of Missouri College of Agriculture.
This circular has just been published
and will be sent free on request.

The cicada usually begins to emerge
during the last week of May. In or
der to map the distribution and re-
cord possible injury by the cicada, the

riculture requests that all persons in

the latter part of May and report on
its abundance, the date of its appear
nnce, and such damage as it may do.
Reports should be sent to the Depart
