Crop Must Be Treated With
Bacteria to Secure Nitro
gen, Say Experts.

In the majority of cases where
alfalfa is sown for the first time, it
will need to be innoculated by
some artificial means. is the state
ment of alfalfa specialists of the
extension department of Purdue
university. Like other legumes.
this crop requires for its proper de-
velopment. certain species of bac-
terra which work on the roots and
gather nitrogen from the atmOs-
phere. If these bacteria are not
present. the alfalfa will have 10 de-
pend on the supply in the soil for
its nitrogen and this is usually not
sufficient to insure a thrifty
growth.
The surest and most practical
course to follow in innoculating the
alfalfa seed is to secure some soil
from an old. well-innOculateL al
falfa feld, or from a place where
sweet clover is growing and use this
in the process. Care should be
taken 10 avoid transfer of weed
seeds or plant diseases when this
soil is being taken. Ii should be
unnecessari Iy exposed TO the sun as
this will kill the bacteria When
the seed is ready 10 SOW. the sim
plest procedure to follow IS TO mix
a gallon or so Of the fresh soil with
every bushel of the seed.
Moisten With solution
If the soil is dry. it will insure all
seeds becoming coated with thin
covering Of soil If they are moisten-

Measures for Relief.
Some relief from the intolerable

"by:
Il. A rigid enforcement OF the
laws against monopolistic control of

"2 Legislation forbiddlng produc-
ers of hides engaging in the tanning
business.
"S. The adoption of a device in
the distribution of shoes that will ac-
quaint the consumer wit hthe selling

retail shoe merchants all made 4un-
rrecedented profits"
Even in 1914 the tanning indus
try was prosperous said the re-
rort, in perhaps majority of cases
earnings were 10 per cent or more
and only a few suffered losses. BY
1916 and 1917 it was rather unusual
for company to earn less than 20
per cent A similar comparison for
manufacturers of shoes shows that
more than twice as many made a
profit of 20 per cent or more in 1916
ard 1917 as did in 1914
Retail Business Profitable.
The rate of return on investment
tie shoe merchants can not be stated,
but it is evident from the volume of
business they mad and from the gross
margins of profit they secured per

very profitable.

Washington, Aug S.-The high
price of shoes was declared to be
due to excessive profits taken by
every factor in the shoe production
industry in a report by the Federal
Trade Commission to congress, made
public today. The packers were
charged with having begun the pyra-
mlding of shoe prices by an unwar-
fGa1ted increase in the price of hides,
the supply Of which they were said
to control. On top of this increase,
1t was charged the tanners have tax
en- exceptional profits" while the
s1oe manufacturers have demanded
en- unusual margin" and the retail
eTs have charged prices that are
not justifiable."
The commissions report covering
the fouryear period from 1914 to
1918 is the result of an exhaustive
inquiry into the price of hides, leath,
er and shoes begun more than year
ago it was said 1t has been in the
Presidents hands some time and it

Anderson of the United States District Court after a hearinq in which the union attorney fought Vainly for d chance to present arguments on the right to strike.
 MT. Ames offered ahdavits from H B. Spencers and Marion Underwood of the railroad administrati ton at Wash ington, as to diminishing coal SUD- plies and diminishing financial re- turns through operation of the roads.
 Taken together, the affidavits show" said Judge Ames, that the government is operating the roads now at a loss which will increase with diminuton of supplies for oper- ation.''
 Judge Ames then read an affidavit from Thomas L. Lewis, secretary of the New River Coal Association of West Virginia. This document de tailed the alleged violation of union contracts in that field. Similar afff- davits were offered, detailing alleged similar conditions in eastern Ken lucky and Tennessee.

 Bail Fixed At S5,OOO
AND WALCHUK TAKEN IN RAID COUNTRY WIDE BY WHICH DEPAkTMENT OF JUSTICE TOOK 200 RADICALS, MOSTLY RUSSIANS WERE PREPARING TO CELE- BRATE SOVIET INDEPENDENCE WITH VIO- LENCE.

Two men who describe themselves as Antone Demetrof, of Putnam street and Nick Walchuk, of Hunt ington Road were arrested last nigh, by members of the local detective force and United States government agents, and were held under $5,0OO bonds for the Federal authorities this morning in the City court.
 The Bridgeport arrests were made simultaneously with many others in all parts of the country. The Fed eral agents conducted raids in fl cit les of the United States and the per sons who were taken face deportation or other such action as may be taken againSt them.
 No definite information as far as the Bridgeport arrests were concerned could be secured this morning. The mems cases were quickly disposed of in the City court, and no one was all lowed to converse with them in any way United States t,olnnrissione CT Hugh J. Lavery stated today that he knew nothing of the charges which will be brought against tbe local pris- oners. The Federal officers who par tieipated in the arrests left town early this morning, and the Bridgeport pc lice maintained strict silence On the matter.
 It is believed that Wakshuk and Demetrof have been definitely con-
