BOYS, LAMB CLUBS.

A news item states that in Missis-
sippi boys lamb clubs are being or
ganized for the development Of sheep
growing, which is a progressive and
commendable movement. The organ
ization takes its cue from the boys
corn and pig clubs which have accom-
plished so much in stimulating pro-
duction and intoxicating modern farm
methods. Much has also been done
in promoting intensified farming. All
of this served the country to good
purpose during the progress of the
great war.
The possibilities OF the lamb clubs
are, we think, even greater. 1t costs
less to raise a lamb than pig and
the profit is greater. Hogs supply us
meat, but sheep furnish meat, cloth
ing and leather. The world is just
now suffering from shortage of all
three of these. The great deterrent
to sheep growing is the dog, but he
is in process of removal as an obsta-
Gle. Many states have enacted effect
i've dog laws and others. we believe,
will do so ere long. Sheep should
increase in a corresponding ratio.
1t is a matter for congratulation
that Tennessee now has dog law
which ought to greatly encourage
sheep growing. We trust that the
boys lamb club movement will soon
be taken up in the state, II 1t hasn't
been already. A fund is now being
accumulated from dog fees which will
reimburse growers for sheep which
are killed. Some officials have not
yet thought we'll to put this law into
effect, but our information is that
generally speaking, the law Is being
very we'll enforced, Before long, 1T
is to be hoped that everybody VIII
fall into line.
BY all means, let's have the boys
lamb clubs in Tennessee. They Will
provide a profitable and instructive
pastime. The number of sheep in the
state ought to be trebled or quad
rupled. The people are hungry for
mutton and are anxious once more to
enjoy the luxury of wooden clothes
II the boys once turn their attention
to sheep raising, it is a safe bet that
the cur which interferes Nth their
flocks will not get off lightly. The
boys can be trusted to look out for

ELECTRIC FARMING.

A statement was noted a day or
two ago to the effect that vegetation
grows relatively more rapidly in the
colder regions because the atmos-
phere there is more heavily charged
with electricity than is the case in
the warmer zones. In thus promoting
! quicker growth, electricity seems to
serve as natures agent in compen-
sating for the shorter season. 1t is
not known, however, whether this
theory has any connection with the
old folklore idea that light is condu-
Give to plant growth-which 1t was
claimed, is more rapid in the full"
than in the dark" of the moon.
Speaking of electric stimulation Of
vegetation, a newspaper article not
long since insisted that the principle
had been established by experin emit
alton. II was stated that pineapples,
perceptible effects Of exposure each
morning TO ultra violet rays, and that
electrically stimulated wheat barley
and oats in England had shown in
creased productiveness of from TWEEN
ty-fiye 10 thirty per cent, with the
quality of grain improved according
ly. 1t is also claimed that seed grain
which has been subjected TO a process
of electrihcation is more productive
and freer from disease and defect
than other seed.
The writer wakes enthusiastic in
contemplating the possibilities that
will accrue TO experimental agricul-
ture and horticulture when the rivers
Of the country have been harnessed
for the wholesale production OF cleo
tricity. Picture a farmer counter
acting a late season by merely throw
ing on a master switch" was one Of |

COMBINATIONS AND THINGS.

Starting about the time OF the last
state convention to nominate candi-
dates for the supreme and appellate
courts, rumors have circulated over
the state of the formation of an of
fensive and defensive alliance to con-
troll the politics OF the state. It is
not known whether the names of all
of the parties to this alleged alliance
have ever been made public, but the
senator from Tennessee, the present
governor and the chief justice of the
state supreme court were bruited as
its chief promoters. Not very much
attention was paid to the stories at
the time, but every once In a while
something happens to suggest that
they had tangible basis.
The senator referred to has worked
assiduously for the creation of an
additional federal judgeship for Ten
nessee and 1t now appears thu. his
efforts are to be crowned with sue
cess. Coincident with this informa-
tion comes that also that the aforesaid
chief justice is to be transferred to
the federal bench. A story from
Nashville few days ago stated that
Gov. Roberts had already decided to
be candidate for election, but
since that some one suggests that he
has designs on a position on the
supreme court bench to I'LL the vacan-
cy which is now expected to occur
most any time.
Whether the Worley appointment
was in furtherance of the combination
has not been stated, but 1t probably
was, Our information is that on the

which it, was alleged, had already
been determined upon. In the light

NICE LEGAL POINT.

That Is an interesting point which
has been raised between the president
and senators regarding the majority
necessary 10 qualify the ratification
resolution by making certain reserva-
lions. The president IL quoted MS in
sisting that two-thirds will be re-
CURED, while senators contend that the
rules provide that two thirds Is only
necessary in the vote 10 ratify. "all
other motions" merely requiring a
majority. The contention seems a
simple one. but It may prove TO be a
deciding factor in determining the
course OF the ratification fight.
IL the presidents position is sus-
tanned. It is practically certain that
no amendment TO the treaty can be
adopted by the senate. nor can the
latter body qualify It's ratification by
means OF reservations. Whether this
would have the effect OF coercing fav-
orable action on the treaty Is another
matter. On the other hand. senators
declare that a simple majority is
competent, not only to adopt such
reservations as appear expedient, but
also to amend the text OF the treaty,
II 1t saw At. To contend otherwise,
they soy. would be TO insist that the
senate might not frame Its own ratif-
cation resolution.
Rules and usage probably incline
to tine senate side OF the controversy.
