MANY CHILDREN IN U.S..
BREAK Federal LAWS

Washington, CA. P)-Approximate-
ly 1000 children under 18 years of age
are arrested in the United States each
year for violations of federal laws,
Secretary of Labor Davis announced
today in making public a report deal
ing with the procedure of federal
pared by the childrens bureau.
The report presents the results of
study of methods of dealing with
children who have violated postal and
other federal laws The postoffice
department and the department of
justice assisted the labor department
in its Investigations by making avail
able their records. The study showed
1,145 children arrested during a two
year period for violating postal laws
and 211 arrested for other federal
offenses.
A measure authorizing federal pro-
sation, the report said, was passed
by Congress in 1917 but was not sign
ed by the President. A similar bill
is pending in the present Congress and
the legislation, the report sug-
gested, would enable the United States
courts to deal much more effectively
with children's cases. 1t was prob
able, the report pointed out, that the
the simplest, most practicable, and
least expensive plan for the proper
handling of children cases involving
violation Of federal laws would be the
development of definite system Of
reference to state juvenile courts at
least in certain types of cases.

DIVERSITY Wins
ON MIX FARM
IDAHO FARMER PUBLISHES STORY
OF DIVERSIFIED FARMING
NEAR MOSCOW

A recent issue of The Idaho Farm
er contains the following interesting
article from the pen of ]. E. Nessly,
regarding the farming operations Of
G.. P. and Frank Mix, who are carry
ing on diversified farming near this
city on an extensive scale:
Twenty-Five years without a crop
failure is the record of a 12-acre Bart
lett pear orchard on the G. P. Mix
farm, one mile from Moscow, in La
tab county, and the orchard promises
a good yield this year.
The yield has been better some
years than others and last year (192D
the yield was not nearly up to the
average, but the yield in the poorest
season since the orchard began bear
ing in 1899 would have been regarded
as a good yield in almost any other
country than the northwest The trees
are strong and healthy, have never
been afflicted with the blight and yield
a splendid quality of luscious pears
which are always in demand at top
prices, Buyers for shipment and for
canneries vie with each other every
fall to get the product of the Mix
orchard
G. P. Mix and his brother, Frank,
are farming 1000 acres near Moscow,
and are regarded as among the most
successful farmers of that section.
They do not summer-fallow an acre
of land "Summer-fallowing is out
of date and a waste of land, time and
energy said G. P. Mix to The Idaho
Farmer representative. 1--WE can not
afford to summer-fallow our land.
The average tax is 1925 per acre per
ery alternate year it would mean $3.50
taxes on the land producing a crop
and we can not afford that.
"The Pa1ouse country is getting bet
ter because we have more diversity
of products. We are raising more
livestock, greater diversity of prod
ucts and are keeping more dairy COWS
in the .Palouse country than ever be-
fore. The way we farm to avoid sum-
is to raise two crops
of peas on the land. We farm about
900 acres, putting 600 acres to wheat
and 300 acres into peas. We raise
hogs to eat the peas and keep dairy
COWS. By having one-third in wheat
we are able to alternate and take one
crop of peas and two crops of wheat
off the land, instead of the old sum-
mer-fallow method, that required
lot of work and expense that pro-
duced nothing. We find a ready mark
ct for the surplus peas, if we raise
more than needed for our hogs, and
always have a market for our pea
fed hogs The pea straw is about
as good as hay. We have 100 acres in
garden, corn and alfalfa,
which leaves us 900 acres for peas
and wheat and we never have failed
to get a good crop of BOTH
G.. P. Mix has fine herd of pure
bred Holstein cows, with bull for
which he paid $1,000 in the east when
the bull was a young calf, and paid
heavy express charges to get him to
Moscow The cows are proving
valuable addition to the farm, the sep
arated milk being used for feeding
calves and pigs and the cream check
going a long way toward paying the
expenses of the farm while the crop
is being raised. The return to the land
from the fertilizer furnished by the
COWS and the hogs is an item of no
small Importance on this big farm.
