melee lent color to the already un.
favorable impression Of him in the
public mind.
When in the midst Of the fight and
a losing fight Garfield was shot, the
American people revolted at the
thought that Arthur and the "Stal-
warts should profit by the assassina-
ton. The public mind revolted also
at the prospect Of a political boss en-
throned in the White House, with his
motley following about him.
That popular picture of Arthur, as
q city politician out of the pages of
Puck, was distorted and untrue, simply
because the background was omitted
from it. The real, the native character
Of the man had been shaped in sur
roundings very different from those in
which the country found him when he
first came under its attention. Born
in Vermont to a Baptist minister, a
man Of education and high principles,
who had come over from Ireland and
who soon afterward settled in New
York state, Arthur had grown up in
village parsonages, where the living
was plain and the thinking high.
When the great test came and he
stood silently for three months in the
shadow of the high Office, Arthur found
himself, and he left petty politics and
factions behind him as he entered the
White House. The public was incred-
ulous at first, but was convinced at
last that he honestly meant to be pres
ident of all the people.
Some Of his old associates in ma
chine politics were as astonished at
the change that had come over their
"Chet" as Falstaff and his cronies
were when Prince Hal became King
Henry v. Not that the new president
coldly repelled the claims Of friend
ship. He simply put first his obliga-
tions to the whole country, though it
cost him dear in the regard Of men
like Grant and Conkling; who set him
down as an Migrate.

Republican committee, ?ou would be

WHEAT AND OATS
THE OUTLOOK
SOME FACTORS OF SUCCESSFUL
= SMALL GRAIN PRODUCTION
IN SOUTHERN STATES. s.;
c. A. WhittIe, Southern Soil
Improvement Committee. ::

Wheat is too closely related t. hu
man hunger ever to suffer serious
slump in demand. At this time the
great wheat producing areas Of Eu.
rope give no signs of getting imme.
diately back to normal production. So
Wet Russia, the greatest of all, offers
no signs of growing wheat beyond-if
even equal to-the needs of Russia.
Rouinania, Austria, Hungary and the
Balkans are so depleted in men and
means, and so disturbed with war and
international politics, as to grow not
even enough small grain for their own
hungry and starving millions. Other
leading European countries are i'm
porters and not exporters of grain.
The Americas will, therefore, be the
hope Of Europes bread. In fact, the
demand will continue to be very urg-
ent.
LABCR-The labor requirements
per acre Of wheat Is less, Of course,
than for cultivated crops. Where Ia
bor's scarce wheat and oats are, there
fore, to be looked upon with favor.
But the labor problem involved in
producing wheat will not be complete
Iy solved unless the farmer goes in for
large yields per acre. 1t requires no
more preparation, and seed, to grow
big crop of wheat than small one.
Therefore, the intelligent farmer will
look we'll to his soil treatment so that
maximum yields may be made at
minimum cost per bushel. Farm labor
is too expensive to neglect this precau-
ton.
PREPARATION-Wheat and Oats
do best on upland soils. The stiffer,
firmer soils are preferred. But it does
not pay to SOW these crops on eroded,
thin soiled slopes. II the crop is to
follow cotton, corn or other cultivated
crop, the soil may be disked. Deep
breaking is not necessary. After drill.
ing in the seed, the soil may be firmed
and smoothed with a roller.
FERTILIZATION Intelligent fertil.
ization will pay on wheat and oats.
Fertilizers will create good root de-
velopment and thus protect the plant
against winter-killing;; they will hasten
the growth of wheat that has been
sown late on account Of the Hessian
fly; it will increase stooling or tiller.
ing, and make plumper grain and full
sr heads; and well-fed plants are also
more resistant to rust and other dis
eases.
An application Of nitrogen in late
winter or early spring will prove very
helpful in giving the grain crops a Wig
orouS new start.
GOOD SEED-A variety Of wheat
may be good, but the terminating
power Of the seed poor. A farmer
should give more attention to his
wheat and oat seed. He should find
out their yielding record. Different
strains of variety will have different
yielding ability. Get only the best
it pays.
Good seed includes clean seed. Make
them smut-free by dip into blue
stone. Use only the varieties that have
rust resistance power.
Farmers of the cotton belt would do
we'll to go into the growing Of cereals
on a broader scale Small grains fit
in with a we'll arranged crop rotation.
They provide necessities, and thereby
add to the independence Of the farm
er and to his power to conserve the re-
ti1rns from his money crops.
