TRY ALL SORTS OF CASES.

Issues Up For Decision.

issues Up fOr decision.
Dublin, July 31.-The Sim Fem
courts in Ireland continue to extend
the area and nature of their opera
tons. Among the cases lately tried
have been cases of libel and SANDER,
OF judicial separation Of the unhap-
PLY married, and of seduction. These
were on the civil side. On the Grim
inal side all sorts of offenses are
tried. AS a rule the persons charged
think it safer to turn up and take
their chance of punishment. But in
most cases they do not get any
option in the matter. In a recent
case in County Glare the person
charged was a local magistrate ac-
cused of traspass. He ignored the
summons and refused to recognize
the jurisdiction of the Sim Fein
court The Volunteers captured him
and carried him off to an unknown
destination and the military are now
guarding his house.
The Sligo asylum committee is
real radical on Sim Fem. 1t has just
decided that the Sim F'ein flag shall
be permanently flown over the asy-
lum. They have vested in the Irish
Volunteers the task of conveying
lunatics to the institution. and left
the power of committing lunatics
to the Sim Fein arbitration assisted
by local doctor.
Kerry county council has decided
to refuse to insert advertisements in
the local papers unless they agree to
public reports in the Irish Language
of the councils proceedings.

One OF the greatest difficulties in
for motion pictures by amateurs is
the tendency Of writer's to slight
things with which they are entirely
familiar. For instance mechanic
may write a story, the plot OF which
Is dependent upon surroundings in
the shop where he works. lie cas-
ually mentions things in way so
that the words would mean some
thing to another machinlst, but to
one not versod in the craft would
fail to get the idea A director pro-
ceeding by such a script would pro-
duce a picture which would be
hooted at by every mechanic who
saw II and 1t would be no ones fault
except the authors.
II is for this reason, probably,
that fewer stories OF newspaper life
have reached the srceen than those
of any other procession. The big
majority OF all writers have had
newspaper experience and so when
they try to write of that profession
they fail in putting in the atmos-
phcre to make the story a COnvinc-
ing one. Directors shun newspaper
stories for Il is to the newspaper
men themselves to which picture
must be submitted for criticism and
woe betide the director who has let
even the smallest mistake in the
technic Of newspaperdom get past
him.
For this reason the latest achieve

in good condition throughout the sea- son. a good crop should be made. In heavy soils it is especially important 10 get the land level and in good condi- ton in the spring and then water it evenly and keep it we'll cultivated throughout the season. One of the most important points to keep in mind is that cotton will not yield well and the fiber will be uneven and weak if the plants during the growing season are repeatedly subjected to alterna- tions of very dry and very wet soil conditions. For that reason the ditches should not be far apart and the bor- ders or checks should not be too long Land that is to be planted to Egyptian cotton should be put into good filth not later than early in March. so that the seed may be planted as soon as the ground Is warm enough to permit it to serminate quickly and grow rapidly from the start. Underlying practically all of the soils of the valley. but more particularly the alluvial soils which include the gravelly. sandy and heavy loam soils, is hard pan locally known as "caliche." This hard pan is not Tn continuous layers and the closeness to the surface varies. It is not confined 10 any one particular locality, but may appear fin the soils of any district. Considering the acreage affected by canche and the acreage of soils which
 
 acreage. either large or small unsuited to cotton growing, some of which could be corrected by the growing of a green or leguminous crop preced- ing cotton, the total acreage of this county which would probably prove to be unprofitableA will approximate 40 percent of the total acreage This fact should be borne in mind by those con templating the growing of cotton and plant only the line which gives promise of profitable returns
 No one can be blamed for planting to cotton every acre of land that he has. upon which there is a reasonable expectation of producing three -fourths of bale to bale or more to the acre. but on land that for one reason or another will not produce more than a half bale, it would be far better to put it into alfalfa that the land may be built up to a high production stand point.
