Early Tillage Will
Save Soil Moisture

Early tillage has been found to be
the most effective means of storing
and saving the moisture in early
spring rains to bridge over the
drouths which come later in the sum-
mer, according to members of the
Soils and Crops Department of the
College of Agriculture. This method
of tillage is more satisfactory than
that which is practiced after the
drouth has arrived.
In order to thoroughly mix the
soil and mulch the surface tillage
should be started Immediately after
plowing. A mulch which is obtained
at that time has been found to be
more important for saving moisture
than one which is obtained after a
large growth has been established,
since most Of the moisture is taken
up by the plants before there is time
for evaporation after the crop has
become large enough to send its roots
through the soil. The same tillage
which produces the mulch will also
start the termination of weed seeds,
making it possible to kill most Of the
weeds bu continued cultivation.
The Importance of saving soil
moisture is shown by the fact that
800 to 500 pounds of water are re-
quired to produce pound of dry
matter in the form of crop. Weeds
use as much water and also as much
plant food as a useful crop in max
ing similar growth and for this
reason it is important that they be
controlled.

The New Ten
Commandments

1. Thou shalt not wait for some
thing to turn up, but thou shalt pull
off thy coat and go to work that
thou mayst prosper in this affair
and make the word "failure" spell
success"
2. Thou shalt not be content to go
about thy business looking like a
loafer, for thou should't know thy
personal appearance is better than
recommendation.
3. Thou shalt not try to make ex-
cuses, nor shalt thou say to those
who chide thee: 81 didn't think"
4. Thou shalt not wait to be told
what thou shalt do, nor in what
manner thou shalt do it, for thus will
thy days be long in the job which
fortune hath given thee.
5. Thou shalt not fail to maintain
thine own integrity, nor shalt thou be
guilty of anything that will lessen
thy good respect of thyself.
6. Thou shalt not covet the other
fellows job, nor his salary, nor the
position he has gained by his own
hard labor.
7. Thou shalt not fail to live
within thy own income, nor shalt
thou contract any debts when thou
! canst not see thy way clear to pay
them.
s. Thou shalt not be afraid to blow
thy own horn, for he who faileth to
blow his own horn on the proper oc-
casion findeth nobody standing
ready to blow it for him.
9. Thou shalt not hesitate to say
"no" when thou meanest "no" nor
shalt thou fail to remember that
there are times when it is unsafe to
bind thyself to hasty Judgment.
10. Thou shalt give every man a
square deal. This is the last great
commandment, and there is none like
unto it. Upon this commandment
hangs all the law and profits OF the
business world.-Anonymous.

The formation of the fund prac-
tically brings to close the arrange
ments for Junior Week, the first
event of its kind ever held in the
history of junior agricultural club
work in Kentucky. The program of
the event which includes recreation

lures has been completed, according
to the announcement. The enrolment
of delegates for the week, which has
been limited to 160 youngsters, is
rapidly being completed, Mr.. Buck

dependence without further delay.
Congressman King is one Of an in
creasing number of Republicans In the
House who are urging quick action
on Philippine independence. Mr..
King is the author Of bill which pro-
vides that within one year the Philip
pine government, under presidential
proclamation, may assemble cOnven-
tion and frame a constitution.
After the constitution is ratified by
the Filipino people the President may
recognize the Philippine islands as "a
separate and self-governing nation
The transfer Of authority is to be
completed within one year. Provision
is made for safeguarding American in
Vestments In the Philippines and for
! the providing of coaling stations and
submarine bases In the Islands by the
United States.
Word from the Philippines is that
the people expect early Independence
and will he sorely disappointed If they
do not get It,
mo nation has the right" said Con-
gresham King ito hold another people
IN peOnage, even though 1t may be
argued by the prOfessOriate that the
condition is simply one Of 'tutelage.'
"a little more observance OF the
golden rule In national and interna-
tiOnal affairs would soon dIspel that
desire for exploitation, the fiercest foe
OF freedom in the world today.
"When we went to the Philippines
we declared before the whole world
that we were not actuated by any self
ish desire of conquest or territorial
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, but solely by humani'
tartan impulses"
Congressman King called attention
to the fact that FlliplnOs are now
raising funds to erect monument tc
Admiral Dewey, which he said was in
directly a tribute to the American peO
pie as well as to Dewey. He recalled
the cable that Dewey had sent tC
President Mckinley, which was rs
follows:
"In my opinion these people Gill
plnos) are superior in intelligence ant
more capable of self government thar
the natives Of Cuba, and am familiar
with both"
Congressman King then recited th'
preamble to the Jones law, passed
August 20, 1915, and declared It was
definite pledge of independence. Th'
preamble stated ut is as 1t has Away
been the purpose OF the people o
the United States to withdraw thel
sovereignty over the Philippine Island
and to recognize their independence a
soon as stable government can b
established therein"
Congressman King stated there wa
no question but that the Filipinos ha
established the specified stable gov
eminent and, therefore, 1t is tn
solemn duty Of the United States t
grant the promised independence.
