WGakley county farmers failed
to get the rain that was due the
past week. The week was ideal for
hay saving and many farmers put
in their bean and pea hay The
young clover seeded the previous
wet weather is having a struggle
during this dry spell.
4g'Sa~~"--s-- -
A great number of inquiries are
made concerning the methods Of
preparing pea and bean stubble
land for grass. Some of the best
results have been had when the
land was thoroughly disced and har-
rowed well, this work being done as
soon as possible after removing the
hay, Then following the first rain,
harrow again seed and cover light
ly. If corrugated roller is availa-
BILE use this to cover, If the seeding
can be done by September /, five
pounds of red clover seed can be
used with eight pounds Of grass. If
seeding is later than Sept. Is, seed
only grass and in February seed
red clover or Japan clover.

GRASS RUG MAKERS
ASK HIGH TARIFF
ON JAPAN IMPORTS
Protection Also Demanded for
Flax Growing Industry by
North Dakota SeantOr.

Washington, Dec. 12.-Additiona]
tariff protection for the American
grass and fibre making and flax grow
ing industries was urged and opposed
Monday before the senate finance com
mittee.
H. A. Dammeyer and F. e. Cars
partben. of New York City, speaking
for the rug manufacturers, declared
that the American market was being
flooded with japanese grass and fibre
rugs under low tariff with the result
that the American industry was being
seriously injured. They said Amer
lean rugs had twice the durability of
the imported article. They asked for q
rate of 36 cents per square yard on
imported grass and fibre rugs.
Opposing any increase in the tariff
duties on these rugs, J. M. Macdonald.
of New York City, representing the
Association of Importers :md Distri-
butors of Japanese Floor Coverings,
declared that the importation of these
articles was a steadily decreasing b,lis-
ness and that at half the duties asked
by the American makers no foreign
grass and fibre rugs would come into
the country.
Senator Iadd, of North Dakota, in
urging protection for the flax growing
industry, told the committee this in
dustry had not flourished because it
rever had received real protection" !"
If the industry is to be encouraged. he
added there must be such duties as
will justify, the farmers in developing

Chinese and Japanese
Delegates Working on
Shantung Problem.
Peking Representatives,
Pleased at Prospect of
Money Settlement.

Washington, Dec 12.-(By The
Associated differentiation of
the value Of the Kiao Chow railroad in
Shantung with view to compensating
Japan in case she agrees to restore
to China complete control of the
road. was taken up by the delegates
of the two nations Monday at the
resumption Of their conversations on
the leasehold. Withdrawal of foreign
postoffjces from China by January 1,
1923, was authorized at another meet
ing by the far eastern committee.
These were the principal develop
to solve the Chinese problem and
were considered as bringing nearer a
final settlement acceptable to China.
China Makes Offer
The Chinese were said to regard as
highly significant Japan's willingness
to discuss the financial basis on which
the Kiao Chow railway. might be re-
stored. China made financial offer,
described by a Chinese delegate as
very LIBERAL and a discussion devel-
oped ON valuation of the road.
According to the valuation made by
the reparations commission under the
Versailles treaty, Japan would pay
Germany 59,OO0,0OO gold marks. a
delegate said. This figure included
adjacent railway mines and certain
other ore fields and formed the basis
for Mondays consideration.
Chinese delegates declined to dis
close how near their offer approached
the reparations commissions valuation
on the ground that their figure would
naturally be subject to change"
Will Furnish Data
The japanese delegates have agreed
to furnish data ON improvements and
the financial condition Of the road
and one of the many phases to be
discussed was declared to be whether
earnings would be deducted from what
China would pay if her offer were
accepted.
The far eastern committee, after
agreeing to resolution providing
withdrawal of foreign postoffices on
the tentative terms outlined two weeks
ago, took up the question of spheres
Of influence and reopened the wire-
less settlement made last week to con-
slider a proposal by France. Further
discussion went over until Wednesday.

PROMISES He
WON 7 ESCAPE
Charges Crime Urge to
Skull Pressure on His
Brain, Says Lawyer.
Prison Authorities Will
Be Asked to Perform
Operation on Head.

| Phoenix. Dec. 12-Withdrawing his
plea of mot guilty., Roy Gardner,
twice convicted Of mail robberies, Mon
day pleaded guilty in the United
! States district court to another charge
of having attempted to rob a mail car
| and received his third sentence of 70
years in federal penitentiary. Gard
ner now has been sentenced to serve
total of Is years in federal prisons:
Gardner's trial here ON charge of
| robbing a mail car at Maricopa, Ariz.,
| resulted in ashung jury Sunday. Judge
| William H. Sawtelle Immediately SEN
fenced Gardner.
Gardner was captured during his
attempt to rob mail car here, by
Herman Inderlied, clerk in charge of
the car.
Trial Brings Reward
At first the justice department
ordered that Gardner be taken to
Leavenworth, Kan, to serve the SEN
tences already imposed upon him
without further trial here. When It
was found, however, that this would
prevent the payment of reward of
5000 to Inderlied,. it. was ordered
that Gardner be tried here. Gardner
will be taken to Leayenworth to serve
his sentences.
In sentencing Gardner, Judge Will
liam FL. Sawtelle told him that this
sentence did not mean that he would
have to spend 75 years in prison.
How long you stay there depends
entirely upon your conduct" the judge
said.
Hope that Gardner would change
his attitude toward the laws and gov
ernment and become good citizen
both for your own sake and for that
of your wife who has stood by you
in this case, thus demonstrating her
sed by Judge Sawtelle. Mrs. Gardner
was beside Gardner as sentence was
pronounced.
Ono Charge Dismissed
As soon as sentence was pronounc-
ed, Thomas A. Flynn, United States
district attorney, moved that the
copa, Ariz., on November 3, be dis
missed, and the court ordered that
that be done. 1t was on this charge
that Gardner was tried last week. He
admitted committing the robbery, but
claimed he was insane at the time.
The jury was unable to agree on

guards ON the way to the prison. Mr..
Davis also said that an effort would
be made to have the prison author

Gardner's skull in an effort to remove
the pressure from the brain which
the defense claims caused Gardner to
commit crimes.

COOLIDGE PRAISES

SUCCESS ASSURED
Japan Anxious for Naval Re-
ductiOn and to Get Out of
China, He Declares.

Philadelphia. Dee $50 important
have been achievements of the Wash
ington conference that its success is
assured. Vice President Coolidge de-
clared in an address here Monday
night. All recent developments have
shown that the japanese are as anx-
ious as the other nations to get out
of China, he said, while the prompt
response Of Admiral Baron Kato to
accept the proposals of Secretary
Hughes for naval reduction indi-
Gates that an agreement of naval ratios
will be reached
The highly important development,
however, he said, has been the sug-
gestion of President Harding that the
meetings be continued. But it was
even more important, he added, by the
further suggestion that Germany be
included in the deliberations.
'Some have been alarmed at this
suggestion" he said, asserting that our
country might become involved in the
detriment and be led into an attempt
to exercise authority over peoples and
in places where we have no responsi-
bility or to submit our affairs to out
side influence and dictation. This is
but restatement of the contest waged
over the ratification of the Pacific
treaty. This question has been de-
cided by the American people and the
suggestion of the president could not
have involved US in any undertaking
of that nature"
He said that the conference is work
ing in harmony with the republican
platform and added:
'It does not appear to be >in any
way interfering with agreements or
operation Of the treaty of peace and
its accompanying covenants made at
Marseiles. Should there be further
conferences they would partake Of the
nature of the present conference. 1t
is well, however, to keep our thoughts 8
