JULY OR AUGUST TIME
| TO SOW ALFALFA CROP

To start the alfalfa crop there is nj
better time than the latter part o1
July or the first part Of August.
In eastern and northeastern Ohio
alfalfa is not grown as usccessfully
as in the western part of the State
though many eastern Ohio farmers
have learned how to grow it.
Conditions favoring the growth Of
alfalfa are through drainage, an
abundance of limestone, and inocula.
tion with the necessary legume bac-
terra. If the soil shows any sign Of
acidity it will be well to apply 2 to 4
tons of ground limestone per acre.
From 300 to 400 pounds of acid
phosphate or steamed bone is valuable
for fertilizing alfalfa. Under these
conditions only 10 pounds Of seed Of
high termination test are required pei

smile when the statements Of as
sistants to Attorney General Palm-
er that the activities of the depart
ment of justice are responsible, are
called to their attention.
1t is pointed out that the specu-
lators, both large and small, have
since the beginning of the war
taken advantage of every Oppor-
t,nity to raise prices on necessities
and Injuries and that the point
has now been reached when the
public has been unahle to assimi-
late the huge stocks hgd for specu-
lation at the prices demanded. This,
together with the failure of Eu-
rope, through the difference in for
cign exchange, to make the antici-
patc;! huge purchases of American
products, thus forcing the reten-
ton of the stocks held for export,
are given as one natural cause for
sudden siumps i'll prices to figures
approaching normal.
The reason for the sudden drop
in prices of grains, provisions and
slumps on exchanges in industrials

mainly due, however, to the fact
chat financial experts realize that
the period Of financial depression
which of necessity must occur after
the period of artificial initiation
caused by the war, is now due.
Banks are calling in their loans in
order to weather the storm, credits
are being refused to big business
as well as smaller business, as witt
ness the recent refusal of the finan-
cial interests to come to the rescue
of the railroads. Wholesale houses
and jobbers in turn have been
forced to curtail credits to dealers
and are demanding payment on
stocks already purchased. Because
of the inflated prices at which these
goods were held the dealers are
forced to make sweeping cuts in
their prices in order to attract
trade by placing the prices within
the reach of the general buying
public.
'Thc statements of Attorney
General Palmcr's assistants that the
slump i'll cost of living is due to
threats of prosecutions by his de-
partment, is laughable," said one
member of the senate who is noted
as an economic expert. "Such state-
mcntS are on Il par with that gen.
tleman's promises of last year to
reduce the cost of living, which re-
suited, however, in steady increases.
1.-THE fact OF the matter is that
the conditions of the worlds fin
ances today is such that Il read
justment is bound to occur. Such
readjustments always result in pam
les. Such il panic is now in prog
ress in japan and is spreading
throughout every civilized country
in the world. The peak of the
crisis will undoubtedly reach the
United States soon and it behooves
the financial interests here to take
precautionary steps to weather the
storm. That they are doing.
