REORGANIZATION
 OF INDUSTRIES
 URGED BY BAKER

. IHepuDfICdII Ccd5tu
 NEW YORK, Feb. S.--Industrial re- organization in America. in order that '.our civilization may forge ahead, was urged by Secretary Of War Baker in an address today before the mem bers of the free synagogue. He made an appeal for a better understanding between employer and employe "who should have a mutual regard for the rights and services of each other"
 "Our civilization must forge ahead" he added, because we are too young a people to stand still. We must set out to follow the ideals of our fore fathers-gather around our leaders and sustain them.
 we did unpredictable things dur ing the war. So in the industrial struggle. we have it in us to estab- fish jsut civilization.1

LETTUCE SHIPMENTS SHOW BIC GAIN OVER LAST YEAR INDUSTRY GROWN IN VALLEY

early planting. First, manure should be applied during July and early Aug ust at rate or not less than three tons
 to the acre. Positively, 1 do not recom-
 mend planting unless this is done. It hastens maturity and produces a better
 grade The lettuce which was heavily fcrtilized last season was on the market
 and forgotten before the unfertilized acreage was ready for cutting.
 Planting should be done early in September at the rate of three quarters of a pound of seed to the acre. The seed should be sown in double rows on ridges running east and. west Plant dry and irrigate, and if within a req sonable length of time the seed does
 not germinate. replant and continue re- planting until the stand is obtained. One season the first seed germinated September IS, at which time we were favored with a few cool nights, and 1t required three paintings to secure this stand. It is not necessary to stir the
 land when planting a second time uT- less it has become foul with weeds, but care should be taken to supply plenty Of moisture which will have a tendency to keep the ground cool, for the season requires a temperature of about 65 or 70 degrees to germinate.
 Frequent irrigation and cultivation arc necessary during the warm weather and thinning should begin by the time the plants have formed the third leaf. Rush the thinning to completion as fast as possible to prevent plants from becoming crowded and slender. I do not recommend transplanting for 1t seems to retard the growth. Frequently it is reported by some one, who pro- fesses to know, that large, beautiful heads of lettuce cannot be produced without transplanting. but this is not true, for our best stock is produced from planting and thinning.
 From the time the plants are large enough cultivation should not cease
 and great care must be taken not to throw loose dirt in the foliage, for while a few leaves are trimmed off at the time of cutting it is impossible to
 trim close enough to leave the head free from drt and the result therefore is a poor grade.
 Lettuce requires an abundance of water. even after it apparently has formed large solid heads. but for ten or 15 days before cutting begins 1t
 should stand without irrigation, as this
 seems to bleach the heart and toughen the head the better to withstand ship ping. The New York and the Big Boston" seem the best varieties for market conditions. other varieties:
 however, have been grown here suc- cessfu1y.
 Ut is up to the grower to make the Salt River valley the leading section
