W00DL0TS SAVE COAL

Many farms are well equipped
for supplying the fuel which is
needed for cooking purposes and
thus saving coal. A large per
centage of these farms contain
timber which has received little
or no attention. Most Of these
areas would yield an abundance
of frewood and yet leave the
woodlots in even better condi-
ton than before the cutting was
made. The removal of dead, de
,caying or otherwise defective
material from the woodlot
would not only serve as a source
Of fuel, but would leave the re.
naming timber in better condl-
ton for increased growth.

VALUE OF MELILoTus PLANT
Heretofore Regarded as, Weed and
Nuisance Is Now Hailed as I'm.
portant Farm Crop.

Sweet clover, otherwise known as
melilotus or bee clover, has been COM
monty regarded as a weed and a
nuisance, but experiments made by
practical farmers to determine its
a%daptability to various climates, its
feeding value and its effect upon the
soil, have shown it to be an important
farm crop.
1t thrives in great extremes of tenn
perature and grows readily in soils
too poor for alfalfa and where other
grasses failed to produce a crop.

All corn is apt to suffer from them

more apt to suffer from these pests.
The best way to destroy them is to
pillow and cultivate so that their
natural food Is destroyed and they are
starved to death before planting the
field. Some farmers let the chickens
follow the pillow and destroy hundreds
of them in this way.

DOOR CLOSED TO
TAX REVISION BY
COMMITTEE ACTION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Income
tax relief legislation requested by
business interests Is impracticable at
this session of congress, Republican
members of the senate finance ON
mitee decided today at an informal
conference.
This decision is in line with SIM
liar one by Republicans OF the house
ways and means committee, and, It
was said, virtually closed the door to
tax revision legislation during the
session.
The treasury's condition as outln-
ed by Secretary Houston, Republican
senators said. made impossible the
tax concessions urged by business
concerns. Congress has been urged
to extend the plan of installment
payment of income taxes and also
to allow deductions Of last years
losses in computing business taxes.
The finanoa committee took no ac-
tion regarding hearings on revenue
or tariff revision matters, nor on the
house bill providing compensation
to former service men. The senate
committee members will confer fur
ther with Chairman Fordney Of the
house ways and means committee
and other house leaders with a view
to -ordinating action between the
two committees on tariff and other
revenue matters.
