GIFTS WITHOUT STRINGS

The recent million-dollar gift of
John d. Rockefeller Jr to the Muse
um of National History. and his gift
OF 100000 to the American Acad-
envy in Rome, are enhanced in value
because there are no strings tied to
them, says the New York Times
They are given without conditions
because of a realization of the "un-
wisdom of seeking to forecast the
requirements of the distant future"
and of the danger of establishing any
endowment in perpetuity. The sem
ior Mr. Rockefeller himself, few
months ago, set an example by Civ
ing to his own Foundation authority
TO spend capital as we'll as interest
too. 1t is a wholesome tendency in
philanthropy thus to grant those to
whom funds are committed or be-
Queathed in trust discretion to use
them as the changing conditions may
determine to be best.
England has been trying by par
iamentary acts to free for the liv-
ing many trust funds that have not
been so Internationally giyeu-trust
funds the strings of which have
through years and generations been
held by dead hands. Among the 40
600 foundations or trusts created in
England alone. there are such as
those whose income was to be used
in redeeming captiyes from pirates.
IN purchasing snuff for old ladies in
certain parish, or i'm providing
waistcoats of the color suggested by
the name of the testator for four
women eac hyear, though such gar
ments are no longer worn These
are ludicrous and extreme illustra-
tions Of what comes of trying to
keep hold of things and control them
indefinitely. Even if the dead
hand can be released by an act of
Parliament, there is generally long
delay. with expense and waste.
There have recently been organ
lied in several cities of the United
States trusts for the specific purpose
OF carrying gifts and requests intend
ed Tor the community from one gen
Grafton 10 the succeeding generation
or generations. In New York City
a corporation under the name of the
community Trust was created in
February, 1920, to perform such
service, primarily for the residents
OF New York City. This trust.

poverty weed, common milkweed
and quack grass. They are contrast
ed with root crown perennials such
as mallow, dandelions, docks, and
others. These last can not produce
new plants from their underground
parts, but resist ordinary tillage
methods with considerable success.
Usually they are heavy seeders,
whereas rootstock perennials usual
ly seed only moderately. or in some
cases scarcely at all Whitetop is

Gradual Yield Reduction
A gradual reduction of wheat
yield under present farming meth
DDS was forecasted during the con-
ference by Henry f. Holtz, soil
physicist at the State College of
Washington. Soil investigators in
other wheat growing sections of the
United States have found that nitro
gen and organic matter are fast be
ing depleted" he stated. Analyses
by the soil department shows that
% per cent of the nitrogen and "a
per cent of the organic matter have
been lost in 4 o years of cropping by
the summer fallow and wheat sys-
TEN of farming.
The organic matter that is left
is becoming more resistent to decay
and consequently less nitrogen is be-
ing made available under the same
climatic and soil conditions we have
had in the past. This means that
the yields of wheat will gradually
decrease under present farming
methods.
Straw has been considered valua-
bic in organic matter maintenance,
but it has been found, on the con-
trary, to be of little value in this
regard. In order to increase the or
ganic matter and nitrogen. crop resi-
dues and fertilizers must be returned
which contain a high per cent of
nitrogen, as nitrogen is the funda-
mental basis upon which organic
matter maintenance depends. This
can best be done by growing le-
gumes. which have a high nitrogen
content, or experimenting straw
with a high nitrogen fertilizer"
Winter Wheat TilIage
How to till land to get best re-
suits in growing winter wheat was
told by D. e. stephens, superintend-
ent of the Moro experiment station.
