MAURy FARMERS TO = =. !.
! @S SAVE CLOVER SEED
BEST CROP HAY EVER PRODUC-
ED IN COUNTY is NOW BEING
HARVESTED.

Cutting of the finest crop of clover
ever grown in Maury county is Under
way. In every section of the county
farmers are busy saving hay. The
harvest has been badly interrupted in
some sections Of the county by rains,
but in other sections practically no
rain has fallen for several days and
work is making rapid progress.
1t is expected that larger amount
of clover seed will be hulled in this
county this year than ever. before.
The second crop will be allowed to go
to seed after the first crop has been
harvested, and scores of, the. county's
best farmers will save the seed,
which sold this season for as high as
$37 per bushel. 1t is impossible to es-
innate just what amount Of seed will
be secured from the acre. but. it will
average from a half bushel to bush
ell and half per acre. probably more
in some instances. The residue will be
used for feed.
Still other farmers are planning to
turn under their second crop of clover,
lime the land and SOW alfalfa. which
crop is Row rapidly coming to the fore

HARVEST LABOR is PLENTY.
(Lincoln Journal

-H ~ AAAs rsie
To see that a change has come over
the spirit of the scene in the past
year one has but to note the quiet in
the harvest fields. A year ago the
air was full Of the difficulty OF get
ting men to harvest the wheat. Pre-
dictions of a like condition this year
were common until recently. The
beginning Of the harvest has eAded
such talk. Oklahoma gets in its
wheat without using all the hands Of
fered. Kansas wheat growers have
found themselves able, in q measure,
to say what wages they should pay.
Last year the laborer alone named
the price. Men in considerable num-
Der have been stranded in the Kansas
wheat country through inability to
secure work in the fields. Apparent
!ly the labor situation in Nebraska is
to be equally easy. The appearance
of an unemployment problem is not
of itself a thing to be pleased with.
What 1t indicates just now, however.
is significant and no Of i'll omen. The
public mind has turned from extrava-
gance to necessities. Labor has been
released by the topping OF public i'm
provements and by the general cftmp
In the luxury industries. The appear
ance of this enlarged labor supply
means that the necessary r%e-adjust-
lment is seriously under way. and that
the mind of the country IL at last
turning seriously to q useful applicA-
ton Of Its. strength.

Grau Insists That City Has
Facilities to Handle the
Largest Ships.

Milwaukee, Wis. July 15.-Opening
of the. Great Lakes waterways {
ocean navigation will, find Milwaukee
prepared to become an ocean port,
according to Phil A. Grau, business
manager Of the Milwaukee Associa-
ton of Commerce. /.
mo change in the improvement
program for the Milwaukee hafbor
will be necessary to prepare for ocean
tonnage" Mr.. Grau said. For nine
years. or since the organization Of the
Milwaukee Harbor commission, the
harbor improvement schedule has
been such as meets all requirements
for every variety of ocean tonnage.
Such a program was adopted, firstly,
alone in the Milwaukee harbor was
coming to require all the facilities
commonly demanded for the handling
of ocean tonnage, and secondly, be-
cause Milwaukee commerce n in
dustry long has seer h opening OF
the Great Lakes Waterways to ocean
navigation is one of the inevitable de-
velopments of he future, however
distant,
milwaukee already is favored with
n of the best harbors in existence,
comprising elaborate inner and outer
harbor systems. Two most important
features of the harbor improvement
program involve h new lower mar
Dor basin and the protected outer
harbor terminals. Both these pro
jects were inaugurated several years
ago and are designed on lines tina
meet all requirements for ocean ton
mage.
Ocean boats commonly draw 25
to 80 feet. and both the tower harbo1
basin and the outer harbori terminals
are designed for 80 feet or NOR
draught. The basin and terminal sys'
tenn both s;mplifes and improves ar
already economic harbor system
Navigation companies, whether do
nestle or foreign, will save mucl
time in port and almost eliminate
towage bills. Shippers saw mucl
time through the terminal service
and much transfer expense. The diff
%ferential on coal alone in the Mil
waukee harbor is about five cents pc
on.
milwaukee,, like many other. TAXI
parts. already has marine interes
equal to most of the ocean ports a
regards both facilities and tonnag
handling.
eff foreign shipments from tn
Great Lakes region could be started
by water instead of being janlme'
through railroad traffic to reach sea
board. thirty to forty per cent of tn
present traffic load could be taken OF
the railroads and the railroads sti
be kept employed to their capacity il
