Want Documents Separated

this week. .o
Want Documents Separated rel
One plan suggested is the circula-
tion of another round-robin to notify
the Paris conference of the strength
of the opposition in the senate before
the treaty is signed and sent here for
ratification. Another suggestion con-
templates an attempt to adopt reso-
luton in the senate itself demanding
that the league covenant be separated
from the remainder of the treaty so
they can be considered, ratified or re-
jected separately. '''s"
So far neither of these proposals
has taken concrete form. A resolu-
ton for separation of the covenant has
been introduced by Senator Sherman,
Republican, of Illinois, but league OPP
ponents have made no united effort to
bring it in for a vote.
In the house repeal of the luxury
tax section of the war revenue bill
and probable action on the resolution
for investigation Of war department
expenditures will be considered on the
floor along with the agricultural APP
preparation bill and its rider to repeal
the daylight saving law. p 'rN .d

CROPS POSSIBLE ON BURNED.
OVER PEAT

IF you have land on which at
least four inches of peat was
burned off last year, it should be
seeded to crop this season be-
fore the weeds have a chance to
get foothold," says F. j. Away,
soil specialist of the Minnesota
Experiment Station, St. Paul.
"On all such burned peat soils
good growth of crops may be ex-
pected in the first season after
burning. In the second and fol-
lowing years on some there will
be only a poor yield, while on
others the beneficial effects will
only gradually disappear in the
course of four or five years. On
some very shallow peats the pro-
ductivity may continue as on
ordinary soils.
The benefit from the burning
is caused by the addition of ash
and not simply to the removal of
the whole or part of the peat
layer. If the ash should be large
ly blown away by the wind, the
beneficial effect of the burning
might prove very slight. Peat
soils in general contain much
phosphate, but it is present in
such a form that the plants can
not make use of it. The burning
releases the phosphate so that it
is readily available to plants.
The peat ash may be regarded as
low-grade phosphate fertilizer,
containing also considerable lime
and a little potash, and when ad-
ded in sufficient amounts to pro-
perly drained unburned peats it
will cause good crop yields"
