pended in the purchase of materials
necessary for fighting insects should
be viewed as wisely invested and as
affording a greater projection than
any other form of insurance. No more
important move toward protection
from insect loss could be made by
any community than the appropria-
ton of money to be used in main
tanning supply of poison materials
and equipment which are in readiness
for immediate use in case of sudden
need. However, scientific farm prac-
tices, which not only insure increased
yields but assure minimum loss from
insect attack, can be much more gen.
orally adopted than they now are and
lit is possible to greatly decrease the
annual toll exacted by our six-legged
enemies by a process that is produc-
tive throughout.
The town which is built of fire-proof
materials does not need as much fire.
fighting equipment as one that is not,
and insurance rates are not so high.
Such town, however, needs some
machinery for extinguishing small
blazes before they reach proportions
sufficient to destroy even fre-proof
structures. Likewise, money invested
judiciously in materials for fighting
insects is necessary, but the amour.
need not be so great and insurance
rates to the community so high If
constructive prevention by means of
farm practice is followed more exten-
sively.

tematic and intelligent rotation of
crops, the farmer not only secures the
greatest production from his land,
but also prevents serious and con-
tinuous loss from insect depreciation.
Certain insects unusually attack GER
tain crops and will not feed to any
great extent on others. When land
is planted to the same kind of crop
for several successive years, pests are
enabled to maintain themselves with
ease, and conditions for their in
crease are made favorable. Land that
is planted continuously to the same
crop becomes low in productive power
for that certain crop, for each kind
of plant extracts from the soil GER
tain elements which are needed for its
growth. As these elements become
depleted in the soil, each successive
crop of the same kind finds plant food
more scarce. Plants that are unable
to secure necessary food in the right
amounts are weakened and their pow
er of resistance to injury or insect at
tack is lessened. In general, slow
growing, poorly nourishe6 plant When
attacked by insect pests may be de-
stroyed where another attacked equal
ly hard but with power to grow rap
idly and repair injury may overcome
the onslaught.
0 non-irigated farms, where a ce-
tain crop is raised continuously a
rotation, as is done in many parts Of
our state, insect injury is greatly les
sened where scientific and successful
farming methods are practiced. Sum-
mer following and cultivation are con-
ceded by all successful "dry farmers"
to be necessary to large production
and an insurance against crop failures
because of lack of moisture. Then
viewed in the light of incest control
these practices have an added i'm
portance. Dry land that is cropped
continuously on successive years, aside
from having a lessened amount of
plant food in the soil, is devoid of
surplus moisture, and unless rains
come at fortunate times during the
growing season, crops will become
stunted, weakened and rapidly suscep-
tible to injury from insect attack.
Where excess moisture is stored in
the soil by rotation and cultivation
the vigor of plants is often such as to
stand severe insect attack without
heavy loss to the farmer.
Poisons Effective
The fact that most of our harmful
insects are short-lived and live but
one season or a part of a season in
the soil or on vegetation and that
they must have food for their. con-
tinuance on any given piece of land
establishes the further value of scien-
ti6c dry farm methods in prevention
Of excessive loss from injury caused
by insects. While it is true that most
insects can migrate readily, it is ais }
fact that the greateh loss is caused
by those that winter over and breed
in the fields which they attack most
severely.
Poisons and various methods of con-
troll cannot be overestimated as to
their worth in the prevention of Sc
we're loss from insects. Money ex

GIVE CITY RIGHT
TO BOOST TAX

The right of the city of Memphis to
allocate to the board Of education any
amount Of money necessary to properly
operate the public schools of the city
provided the city stays within the legal
limit OF $2.25 as a tax rate, was upheld
by the supreme court OF Tennessee in
decision handed down Saturday. The
opinion of the states highest court af-
firms previous opinions of ChaR cellor
Israel Peres and subsequent affirma-
tion by the circuit court OF appeals.
The opinion, as handed down by the
court, denies the petition of S. NJ. VIII
Hanson and other citizens who filed a
petition for injunction against the may
or and city commissioners, seeking to
prevent them from enacting an ord
nance, under terms of which the school
board of Memphis would be given more
than the so cents mentioned as a man
datory allotment by the legislature.
Attorneys for the city contended that
the city had the authority to give the
school board any amount 1t saw fit so
long as the legal maximum tax rate Of
$2.25 was not exceeded
The committee of citizens headed by
Mr.. Williamson, filed the petition for
injunction in the chancery court in or
der to test the legality of the city's
action. The suit was friendly" one
in every respect and members of the
committee stated at the time the suit
was filed that it was their earnest wish
that their petition would be denied.
City Attorney Walter F. Armstrong
was assisted by the law firm of
Holmes g. Canale in upholding the
contention of the city while r. NJ. Met

The court held that the act did not
forfeit the employers properly rights
without due process of law; that IL
did not abrogate the fellow servants
rule.
The court overruled the objections
that many Of the provisions of the act
Were broader than the caption.
The exemption Of coal miners from
the operation of the statute was held
to be based upon a reasonable classifi-
cation within the power of the legisla-
ture, under the police power only TO
the extent that 1t cannot make an un-
reasonable arbitrary classification.
The application of the statute TO
minors was upheld on the ground that
the legislature has the power to au-
