The records show that the soil Of
the United states has decreased in
fertility in the last fifty years while
the soil of France has increased its
productive capacity. During the
year 1917 with more than fifty per
cent Of her grown men in the army,
France was the third wheat produce
ing country i'm the world. How are
these wonderful achievements in
agriculture wrought? BY religious
care of the soil and a knowledge of
IFS power TO respond to proper
treatment. The French farmer
loves his soil; he loves his animals
and treats them both with humanity
kindness. Through many years OF
trial and difficulty he has developed
into scientific farmer. He is not
scientist who has arrived through
the spirit of adventure or aided by
the government funds but one forced
by necessity to squeeze living for
large population from a small area
Of land. On an area smaller than
the state of Texas France is prOduc-
ing enough food TO feed sixty-five
per cent of her population, equal TO
one-iifth the entire population of
The United states. Only by keeping
up the fertility of the soil and care
ful business management is il pos
sible to do this.
The farmers of the United States
and especially those of the noun
iains must introduce more business
management into their profession.
They must acquire some of the
thrift of the French and learn to get
larger annual yields from small
tracts of land.
French methods can be used more
successfully in the mountains than
upon the plains as the rich coves
and creek valleys are usually in
very small tracts and not best
adapted TO the use of large ma
chinery. BY proper crop rotation
and suitable combinations il is often
possible to have two crops year
on one field and leave the field better
than when you began. These COM
binations will have to be worked
out with crops that are suited to
the soil and climate of the CON-
munity where they are grown and
must be tied up with stable mar
ket.
Scientific agriculture and farmers
organizations are necessary to bring
about this great change and these
are both taught in good schools Of
Agriculture.
If we are TO have permanent agri-
culture we must have permanent
soil fertility. If our farmers are to
pay their debts and lay aside some
cash they must have thrift and
business methods. A good school of
Agriculture emphasizes both of the
above principles. But in choosing
that school be sure il specializes in
the branches of farming that are
suited TO your locality. Agricul-
tural education pays big financially.

lions. He is proud of the fact that
his soil is more fertile today than
il was when his forefathers came
into possession of it, maybe, three
hundred years ago.
France was an old agricultural
country when Columbus discovered
America. The soil is by nature
poorer than the soil of the United
States, yet the yields per acre Of the
crops that are common to both
countries are greater in France than
in the United States. France pro-
duces five bushels more wheat TO
the acre than we do, from two TO
five bushels more rye and thirty
bushels more potatoes TO the acre.

DOG, RELATIVES AND
NtICHDORS FIGURE
IN SUIT Of DIVORCE


The divorce suit of Gertrude Tuleja
-ersus Jacob Tuleja was taken under
ladvisement yesterday by Judge George
IG. Bingham after hearing the mass Oh
conflicting evidence presented by the
attorneys for the parties to the suit
BY the complaint of Mrs. TuleJa
and the counter complaint of TuleJd
the marital troubles of the couple seem
TO have been aggravated by multi
plicity of dog, relatives and neighbors.
In her complaint Mrs Tuleja charges
that her husband drove her aged faith
er from their home and locked out the
lneighbors who attempted to visit her
while she was ill. Tuleja denies these
charges and claims tha- his wIle
whom he characterized on the witness
stand as being 'The biggest liar in
the world" had persisted in calling
in Chinese doctor when she was ill
and that she insisted on sleeping with
and kissing a dog. Present at the hear
ing were Tuleja's children by former
marriage, he having been married four
times according to testimony submitt-
ed yesterday.
The Tulejas were married in Port
land, August 80. 1919 and according
| to evidence submitted, the marriage
was one of convenience, Mrs. Tuleja
| tc take care of her husbands five
small children while Tuleja was to pro-
vide the home for her and for her
aged father.
In testifying yesterday, Mr.. Tuleja
denied that he had ever made the
statement that he 'would rather live
under the Kaisr than in the United
States" claiming that he was patrio-
tic, though admitting the fact that he
had never completed his citizenship
in the United States, being a native
Of Poland.

BUSINESS Men
URGE SUPPORT
OF WILLAMETTE

Urging that the business men Of the
city get behind Willamette University
In it's efforts to make good in it's new
status as a member of the Northwest
intercollegiate conference. prominent
business and professional rnen u he
city are backing the pan of the uni
versity student body to sell season tick
cts for admission to all athletic events
and other attractions In which the uni
versity or its teams participate here.
4 The plan as suggested is that the
student body issue tickets, similar to
those issued by most of the conference
colleges to their students. covering all
of the games and contests played here
during the year, and put them on sale
to anyone, college student or otherwise
for $40.
Expenses Increased.
The added responsibilities assumed
by willamette in entering the confer
ence has created the demand for more
money than has been needed before
to carry out the athletic and other pro-
grams and the ticket sale idea appears
as the most logical method of raising
The needed funds.
In carrying out It's conference ath-
1etic schedules the university will be
put to far greater expense than ever
before. Trips of teams into California.
Washington and Idaho will call for big
outlays and considerable money must
be spent in putting the athletic fields,
floors and equipment into shape so
that they will meet conference require
ments.
Realizing the value of the work done
by Coach Mathews In securing William
ette's admission into the conference,
those who are backing the movement
for greater support for the university
on the part of the business men of Sa-
lem point out that Mathews ana M

feel that he will be able to make a

GIVEN SALARY INCREASE
New Wage Scale for Employees OF
american Express Announced :.

New Wage Scale for Employees OF
American Express Announced ;.
Washington, April 15.-Wage IN
creases, averaging about SIS month
for approximately $4,000 employees OF
1.-THE American Railway Express Com
pany, were announced last night By
Director-Genera1 Hines. The increase
represents an advance Of S25 month
above the wage scale in effect Janu-
airy l, 1918.
The director-general also raised the
wages of 10000 sleeping and parlor-
car employees s25 a month above the
basic mininla in effect Jan. l, 1918.
Since approximately half of this sum
was awarded by the general wage in
crease of last year, the net addition OF
this order will be the remainder, OF
about $3.50 per month.
Wages of 10000 dining-car en-.
ployees were advanced $25 above the
basic monthly minimum in effect an
'uary /, 1918. This will yield approx
mately IS m3nth, additional to each
employee. since two-thirds of this S25
increase was taken up in the general
wage advance last year.
The wage orders are to become eff
fective at once.
The express employees applied more
shan six months ago for more pay,
and in some localities threatened a
strike. Later they presented their case
to the War Labor Board, but withdrew
it when assurances were given by the
director-general that the railroad adj
,ainistrat;on's board Of railway wages
and working conditions would take
Up their case. About that time the
American Railway Express Company
was taken over for operation by the
railroad administration.
