FARM TRACTORS

Farm tractors in this state last season
made it possible for 142 farmers to plant
an average of 1-3 more acres of crops
than they otherwise would have. Ac-
cording to reports submitted, they did
this with one less horse per farm than
was owned before buying the tractors.
On an average each saved 81 days man.
labor and had the crops in the ground an
average of days earlier. Forty-three
users reported that because of this earlier
planting and better working of the land
they secured an average increase yield of
9 bushels of oats per acre and sc bushels
of potatoes.
1t cost S1035 per 1O-hour day, or ap-
proximately 81 per hour, to maintain and
operate tractors on these 142 farms.
These machines were operated on farms
averaging 1873 acres tillable land, of which
73 acres were in crops, including 38 acres
of potatoes, 28 acres of grain and 7 acres
of other crops.
Of the 40 days work per year 20 was
for blowing and narrowing, IL for miscel-
laneous work and the remainder for belt
power. Tractors were used very little for
hauling loads.
The principal advantages of a tractor
in Maine seem to be making possible
quicker handling of work in the spring,
ther by increasing the amount of land
worked, and getting crops in earlier, Civ
ing longer growing season, and saving
man-labor during the spring rush.

A FEW RULES TO REMEMBER IN
CASE OF AN AUTO ACCIDENT.

If you use an automobile you are pretty
certain to have an accident or to get in
tight position during the driving sea son.
Here follow few simple rules to guide
the autoist who finds himself in mixup:
/. Be calm and courteous. Do not lose
your head or temper. Do not admit you
are in the wrong or accuse the other
party.
2. Do not drive away without report
ing the accident to police officer or to
giving your name and address to the
comprises felony punishment by i'm
prisonment or fine.
8. If the other vel icle drives on be
sure to get its license number.
4. Get out on the ground Immediately.
Visualize Just how it happened Where
was your car VIII n you first saw the
other vehicle or person, and where was
the other vehicle or person when you first
saw it or him. Note carefully the rela-
tive position of your own auto and vehicle
or person struck as soon as accident is
over. Note carefully wheel marks on
road or pavement.
5. Get the names and addresses of all
| persons who saw the accident, or saw the
immediate results, including all injured

any expense except for immediate surgi-
cal relief. OF course, if there have beer

lance.

THE KNOX RESOLUTION,

1t is evident that President Harding
and the Senate have no intention to par
ticipate in the League of Nations and
that the treaty of Versailles will not be
ratified by the United States. Senator
Knox has reintroduced his peace resolu-
ton, which was passed both Houses last
May, and was vetoed by President Will
son. The resolution provides for the re-
peal of the declarations of war against
Germany and Austro-Hungary and de-
clares that the state of war which exist
ed between those countries and ours, IS
ended.
The resolution furta aer stipulates that
all the property of The German gov
.ernment which was, on the date of the
declaration of war, in possession of the
government of the United States, or
which since then has come into its pos
session or into the possession of its
agents shall be retained until treaty
has been made and :ratitied. and un-
til the German government has made
suitable provisions for the payment
of Just indemnity claims to all American
citizens who have suffered loss, damage
or injury to their persons or property, in
consequence of the war, by or through,
the German government since July IA,
1914.
The resolution furthi r provides that
although the United States has not rati-
fled the treaty of Versailles it reserves all
the rights, powers, indemnities and other
advantages, including the right to enforce
the same under the terms of the armis-
tice signed Nov. II, 1918. The resolu-
fion also requires that in all matters af-
fecting residence, business, commerce,
industrial rights, etc, the citizens of the
United States shall receive such privi-
Ieges as are accorded to the ''most favor
ed nations" This resolution, perhaps
somewhat amended, will doubtless be
adopted by the Senate aud approved by
the President.
The next thing in order will be the
making of a treaty. That is likely to be
delayed by much circumlocution. We
predict that Germany will bak, notes
and interpretations will be handed back
and forth and that years will elapse be-
fore an agreement will be reached In
the matter of reparations we fear none
will ever be made except such as can be
made from the proceeds of German prop.
erty now in our possession.

LOOKING FOR TROUBLE

1t IS SAID that France and Poland have
Dy treaty formed a defensive alliance
against attack by Russia or Germany.
1t is also said that Poland has made
similar agreement with Rumania Czecho-
Slovakia and Hungary. This shows that
these nations have lost all faith in the
League of Nations. In the event of an
attack on France or Poland the safety of
Belgium would probably lead her to Join
these countries in repelling such attack.
q 1t is probable that the above alliances
are strong enough to stand off an attack
fram Russia or from Germany, but an
offe nsive alliance between these two
cou ntries is, as we view the situation,
possible if not probable. Those now in
control of Russian affairs have refused
to recognize the right of holding property
and have made general confiscation of
mo ney. Jewels, factories, mines and
wh atever else they thought they could
use. The result has been that produc-
ton has dwindled almost to the vanish
ing point. Sovietism in Russia will
wear itself to tatters in a few months
more. A regime founded upon rapine
and murder will be it's own executioner.
g ermany has still her ambition to rule
Europe and evidently has not lost all
no pc of doing So She needs the mines,
the grain regions and all the other natural
res ources of Russia and she especially
needs, if she's to again become powerful,
to get control of the millions of Russian
peasants, to train and use them as "the
human dice with which the lords of ear; h
do play the game of battle" The terms
of the treaty imposed upon Germany are
hard but they are Just, and the Allies
should see that they are strictly enforced.
Failure to enforce them will endanger
the peace of Europe if not of the world.

In the hearings before the Federal Rail-
road Labor Board the railroad managers
have made out strong case in proof that
the wage scales are ruinous. On the
other hand the brotherhoods have made
emphatic statements charging waste and
extravagance by the railroad managers
to the amount of more than half bill
lion dollars annually. We suspect that
the statements of both parties in this
controversy have been considerably in
flated. Neither the railroad magnates
nor the brotheThoods seem to have the
slightest regard for the shippers of
freight, for the people who must nave
coal to warm their homes or for anybody
else except their own magnifled selves.
On the very day when the railroad man.
ayers finished telling their tale of woe to
the Railroad Labor Board, the Interstate
Commerce Commission authorized the
Delaware, Lacawanna and Western Rail-
road to issue stock dividend of $45, ,000,-
900. This, and coming generations are
doomed to furnish the money to pay an
nual dividends on this stock. The above
company had, in all, O,00O 900 surplus,
every penny of which was accumulated
from freight, passenger and other public
service. This railroad passes through
the great anthracite coal regions
of Pennsylvania and we have no doubt
that the people of Belfast contributed
their quota towards the accumulation of
the above enormous surplus. Is it not
about time for the public to have hear
ing before the Railroad Labor Board and
the Interstate Commerce Commission2

Forty-one obsolete committees of the
Uni ted States Senate have been elimi-
mated with their expense. Some of them
have been abolished and some have been
merged with other committees. Last
week The Journal raped the Health de-
partments and bureaus. Since then we
have somewhat extended our investiga-
tions and we find that there are 80 separ-
ate governmental agencies handling en-
gineering and architectural matters in
come ction with public works of various
kinds; 10 more are engaged in hydraulic
constructions; 26 more are surveying or
making maps; Is organizations are doing
chemical investigations connected with
public works. and there are q other sep
arate agencies connected with the vari-
Gus building operations and all the above
are being paid for out of the public purse.
This hypertrophied system of transact
ing public business is indefensible.

Some time last year it was reported
that our Navy department had purchased
an Italian Zeppelin type dirigible, the
reported that the above purchase has
saved more than million dollars and
that American officers of the Naval Avia-
tion Corp are on their way to Italy to
undertake transatlantic trip in it to

prehend how a million dollars can be
sa we'd by buying huge gas bag in Italy.
1t is extremely doubtful if it will get
here and if it does what use can we

plomacy of England, Japan, Germany

MIGRATION OF BIRDS STUDIED
Interesting Facts Concerning Their Habits
Secured by University of Illinois
Professor.

PROFESSOR
Urbana, ILL.,, April T. Though many
birds from this section migrate as far
south as Central and South America, it
has been found by actual test that many
of them return to the same localities and
sometimes even to the same nest.
Results of inquiry in the middle west
and south covering number of years are
reported by Frank Smith, professor of
zoology at the university of Illinois, in
the annual Illinois Arbor Day and bird
book.
Facts were obtained by trapping birds,
placing small leg bands on them, and let
ting them 60. Here are some of the
things Professor Smith records:
A cat bird banded near Cleveland, O.,
in 1914 was retaken in the same locality
the following year. Two cat birds banded
in 1916 were retaken in 1917, and one of
them was again taken in 1919 Cat birds
winter as far south as Panama.
A chimney swift banded in 1916 was
retaken in the same chimney the follow
ing year. Chimney swifts winter wholly
south of the United States.
A tiny house wren banded in 1915 was
retaken in 1916 and found to be using the
same nest box that it had occupied the
preceding year, in rearing it's second
brood of that summer. House wrens
winter in the south Atlantic and Gulf
States.
Tests at Thomasville, Ga, with birds
classed as "winter residents" because
they fly into the northern States and into
Canada during the summer months show
ed these results:
Eight chipping sparrows banded in 1916
were all retaken in 1917. Three chipping
sparrows were retaken IN 1917 that had
been banded in 1915. Several myrtle
warblers and white -throated sparrows
banded in 1916 were retaken the following
year.-Bozeman, Mont. Daily Chronicle

 An average of four licenses were issued for each day the bureau was open during the year 1920. The low est number issued in one month since Jan. 1. 1920, was S3 licenses, in Feb ruary, 1921, and the highest number was 148. issued in December, 1920.
