The Presidents Last Year.

II is the usual experience OF a two
term president to find during his eighth
wear in office that the country thinks
more about his successor than about
himself. Another common experience
Is for a president 10 find toward the
end Of his service the accumulated ami
mosities Of his years in office gather
ing about his head, until it might seem
that the executive has none but enc
mics left.
President Wilson j. in the midst Of
both these experiences. The country IL
busy discussing his successor. The Sen
ate has turned against him on the
treaty issue. Congress. with both
branches controlled by the party op-
posed to the president, i more inter
ested for the moment in making pO-
litieal history than in helping the ma
ton hack 10 a sound peace basis
The president. so far at least. has
avoided one source Of irritation which
has plagued some Of his predecessors.
He appears not 70 intend to try die

Nature Making Garden Soil This Win
ter,

Winter SHOWS and hard freezing
weather, reported in many parts of the
United States this winter, are the best
agencies for getting garden soils in
condition, according TO United States
department of agriculture specialists.
Soil is nothing more nor less than fine
ly divided rock with decsyed vegetable
matter mixed with it. Every time the
water freezes in the crevice of a rock
il makes the opening a little wider un-
til finally the rock Is split into frag-
ments; more water gets into the open
inQs in these fragments and freezes,
and so the work of reduction goes on
forever. Every time the ground freezes
new soil is formed, hut this new soil
is in need of manure or decaying vege-
table matter before it win hold water
in minute quantities and be in. condl-
ton to produce crops.
Every time the soil Is stirred in cul-
tivating, the particles are ground to-
gether and they rub or break off still
finer particles. II the soil IL too wet
when IL is worked, the particles viii
become eemented together and there
will be clods or lumpy soil. The little
hairlike roots of plants develop in the
space between the particles of soil. Here
is where they get their water and along
with il food materials that are essen
tial 10 the growth of the plant.

Geological crisis of adolescence and
bringing the student to the college at
the age of 49, The application OF the
plan has been the subject OF special
study, by Prof Charles III. Judd, head
of the department Of education at the
University of Chicago, and he is to CO.
operate with Dean Charters in intro
ducing it at Stephens.
1t is now agreed by many American
educators that the average American
youth who attends college is two years
belated in entering, and Dr. Eliot par
ticularly has urged that the college
course should be completed at an ear
lier age than now The proposed change
would be in conformity with general
European practice. A practical argu-
ment advanced by President Wood IS
that at the earlier age of entering
many more youths would be willing to
undertake at least the beginning OF a
college course. The theory of the new
plan of course embraces the belief that
bows and girls now in the last two
years of their high school course could
with equal grasp undertake some
courses of college standard, That many
students find the present high school
course quite hard enough does not nee
essarily mean that they would lind it
any harder if in some respects it were
more advanced" The practical prob
lem is one OF Encouragement and elm
nation.
Stephens college, which has already
demonstrated the strength of its faith
by its works, seems pretty sure to be-
| come an educational experiment sta.
ton whose experiences will be followed
with keen interest throughout the
untry.-Springfeld Republican.
