BRYAN ASKS u. s.
TO SEND DELEGATE
TO GENOA MEETING

Lincoln, Nebr., May William
Jennings Bryan last night made pub
lie a letter he had sent President
Harding, making strong plea, on
religious basis, that the United States
send delegate to the Allied econom-
ic conference now being held at Cen
GA, Italy.
Following are excerpts from Mr..
Bryan's letter:
HIt would not hurt US to have a
representative there if he went em-
powered to advise only and with the
understanding that our nation is not
bound BY any conclusions reached,
except as our people, acting through
congress and the president, or at a
referendum, may expressly approve.
"The failure of the United States to
enter the League of Nations was a
national and international calamity,
the responsibility for which was di-
vided between the refusal of the DEM
ocrats to ratify the treaty with res
ervations. The covenant was so much
more important than the reservations
that it was unspeakable folly for
either side to subordinate the idea of
international cooperation to the
minor details about which they diff
fered.
"But a mistake in the past should
not prevent wiser action in the pres
ent and future. It matters little
whether it is called a League Of Ma
ttions or an Association of Nations OF
anything else, our nation should use
its influence to aid in securing world
peace. .5ff'5a js2

Knob Lick An
Easy Victim

The ball game here Sunday after
noon between the Knob Lick and
Pennington teams was far short of
the classy ball playing that had fea-
tured the two previous games of the
season. In fact the visitors fell an
easy prey to the local team. They
failed completely to show any special
ability on the diamond, particularly so
in the outfield.
Their playing failed utterly to prove
any stimulus to the local players, who
had practically the same lineup that
has heretofore proved so efficient,
causing them to go through the game
in dusultory manner. The score was
18 to 2 in favor of Pennington. Such
poorly matched games have deaden-
ing effect on ball fans. Therefore
care should be used in forestalling
such poor exhibitions.

Iron Mountain
Chat Being Used

Liberty street is now being inn
proved with q coating Of Iron Noun
tain chat, which has proved itself bo
be the best loose surface road dress
ing thus far discovered, in the minds
of those who have seen it thoroughly
tested. This chat not only has most
remarkable wearing qualities, but al
so has atendency to pack in most sat
isfactory manner, and is practically
free of dust and decay. This same
chat has been on the Iron Mountain
tract roads for many years, and those
roads have not only failed to wash
away, but they are still in an exceE
lent state of preservation, though for
the past ten years or more they have
received practically no attention. This
indicates most unusual merit for Iron
Mountain chat as a road surfacing.
1t is, therefore, the general belief
that the Improvement now being made
on Liberty street will be the most en-
during and satisfactory work that
has ever been put upon that street.
When Liberty street has been thus.
chstted from STAINS corner to the
square, most of which distance
has already been completed, the
square and Columbia street will be
completed in like manner, and it Is to
be sincerely hoped that the streets of
Pennington will then be in the best
and most enduring condition they have
ever been. 1t will require but short
time to thoroughly test out the quail
tiles of Iron Mountain chat to stand
the strain of heavy traffic, as this is
the most used road in the city, which
has more heavy traffic than many
places of much larger population.
If this chat stands the strain on
Liberty street, it will not be long, per-
haps, until all the streets of this city
will be so dressed. 1t is also expected
that the sprinkling of oil, which will
soon be due for our streets, will
have a tendency to assist in the pack
ing process for this road surfacing.

How To Get 100000 Credits

Here's an example Of how
easy it is to get HALF MIL
LION credits in The Times $3,-
900 campaign:
25,0O0 credits are allowed on
each 5-year subscription to The
Times, provided the same is
turned in before the close of the
"First Period"-May 13.
Twelve such subscriptions
mean 100000 REGULAR cred
its. IF outside of Pennington
100000 regular credits.) Then
according to the rule of issuing
O,000 EXTRA credits for each
Club of $50 turned in 1890 con-
stitutes four "clubs") you would
be entitled to 100000 EXTRA
credits. This number added to
the 100000 regular credits
makes a grand total of 100000
credits for just twelve 5-year
subscriptions, and if these twelve
people reside outside of Farm
ington your total would be $780,
900 credits and a $40 start on
another club.
Therefore, twelve 5-year or
ders or the equivalent in shorter
term orders, mean half mil
lion credits. Easy enough,
isn't it?
Haven't you twelve friends
who would help you to the ex-
tent of a 5-year subscription to
The Pennington Times toward
winning that handsome Stude-
baker Six Touring Car, worth
$3.50?

Inoculate for Soy Beans.

To get the best results from grow
ing soy beans, there must be nodule
producing bacteria on the roots. II
these are not present, the plant gets
no nitrogen from the air but uses up
that already in the soil. These hac-
terra as rule are not found in most
soils.
There are several methods of inocu-
lating. One is by securing soil from
a field where soy beans with nodules
on the roots have grown recently
About two quarts of the soil may be
mixed with bushel Of the seed and
be planted with the seed, by using
some glue. The culture containing the
bacteria may be secured by writing
to the Soils Department at Columbia
Enough bacteria to plant | bushel OF
