A N1ONG the presidents, John Quincy
IA Adams holds the record of hav-
fhg been the youngest and oldest pub
lie servant. From boyhood, when he
was a secretary Of legation at the e2-
traordinary age Of fourteen until he
fell at his post in the halls Of congress
in his eighty-frst year, he was in the
service of his country So of those 81
years.
A president and the son Of presi-
dent, all the other Is presidents from
Washington to Johnson were his asso-
ciates. From the day he climbed a
height near his Massachusetts, birth
place to see the battle of Bunker Hill,
is miles away, he was a witness to
nearly every great event in the history
Of the nation until the close Of the
Mexican war.
With John Adams in congress the
child had to be the man Of the family,
and at nine he regularly rode his horse
to Boston to fetch the mail. At ten
his father took him with him on his
mission to France. By twelve he had
crossed the Atlantic four times, run
ming the British blockade in leaky tubs
At fourteen, an American minister
appointed the mature youngster" his
secretary of legation. By seventeen,
the youth had travelled over much OF

Europe, and he came home to enter
Harvard. After graduation, he open
ed a law office in Boston. But busi-
ness was only beginning when the
young attorney was appointed by
Washington, minister at The Hague,
where the government to which he
was accredited fed before the armies
of France and left him in the midst
Of the triumphant revolutionists.
Meeting the daughter of the American
consul in London, Marylander, she
and the young diplomat were married
on the eve of his departure for Berlin,
to which capital he had been promoted.
Among his last acts as president
John Adams removed his son from
Office to deprive Jefferson of the ma
licious satisfaction Of dismissing him.
When the recalled diplomat was elect
ed to the senate he displayed his fam
ily trait of independence by taking
sides with his fathers hated rival and
supporting the Jefferson administ.a-
ton.
The infuriated federalists Of Massa-
chusetts savagely turned upon him as
a traitor to his party and a renegade
from his class. They drove him from
the senate, and when he came home
he found himself in his Boston house,
which stood where the Hotel Touraine
now stands, a social outcast on a
onely island entirely surrounded by ice.
With his name erased forever from
the Boston blue book, John Quincy
Adams was no longer gentleman: and
the Jeffersonians, who were not gentle
men, but only Democrats, took him up.
By their favor he became minister to
Russia, a negotiator of the peace OF
Ghent in 1914, and minister to England.
From London, John Quincy Adams
was called home to be secretary OF
state in the Monroe administration. In
that post he played the leading part
in shaping the Monroe doctrine.
In his retirement John Adams had
watched with fond admiration the rise
Of Tohn Quincy until he was only one
rung from the top. Although, in his
crabbedness, he complained tnat my
son will never get a chance at the
presidency until the last Eirginlan is
in his grave" fortune agreeahly sur
prised the aged ex-president in next
to the lest of his ninety years, When
ne saw the scepter of the republic pass
to lineaI hand.

BENEFITS OF RYE AS A WINTER
COVER CROP.

Southern soils are much in need OF
organic matter or humus. An excel
SIent opportunity for providing it is af-
forded by rye sown in the fall and
turEed under in the spring. Not only
win it increase the organic contents
OF the soil, but it will conserve plant
food and increase the yields Of SUBJ
sequent crops. It uses nitrogen that
would have leached out and would have
been lost during the fall and winter.
It also utilizes the phosphoric acid and
potash that becomes soluble during the
winter. All these and ther elements
OF plant food go into the ground with
the spring plowing and will be releas-
ed for the subsequent crops.
- Winter legumes are excellent where
they can be grown with success, but it
is much. easier to get stand of rye
on all kinds of soils and under vari-
Gus climatic conditions. Rye is in
TACT the most dependable crop for
poor soils, and it is the poor soil, Of
course, which needs Winter-cfop
most. "-'7' &
Mistakes are sometimes made in q
failure to plow under rye at the right
time If the spring Is dry it should
be turned under early, no matter what
its stage Of growth Is. The danger,
Of course is that rye will pump out
too mueh soil moisture, rendering the
soil hard and lumpy when plowed and
giving the following crop poor show.
II the spring is wet or normal, of
course, the rye should be allowed to
grow as long as possible, since it will
be adding benefits to the soil.
Rye being such a good soil helper
ought to be given a better show than
Is usually accorded it. The seed bed
should be we'll prepared and fertilizers
should be applied, to both of which it
HlRkes ready response.

We hear it said that interpretations
are unnecessary but they
will at least be reassuring to many

done is the repeal of the war taxes.
ssFederal taxation must be heavily

es, unjustifed, should be repealed"
ssAs possible substitute for the
excess profits tax suggest small
tax, probably one to one and one-half
per cent. on the total business of
every going concern"
sMorals can not easily be produc-
ed BY statute. The writ of injunc-
tion should not be abused. We need
q definite and precise statement Of
policy as to what business men and
working men may do and may not do
by way of combination and collective
action. Neither labor nor capital
should at any time take action that
would put in jeopardy the public
welfare"

am convinced that the expense
of government can without loss of
efficiency be reduced to a maximum

ssThe discourtesy to the president
