BASS ALWAYS A WANDEREn
Fish Has No Special Abode, but Seeks
Places Where Food Is the
Most Plentiful.

The bass, both large and small.
mouthed is roamer. He is always
looking for the place where the most
food is, and is fond of variety. You
can fish for him night or day, as he is
24-hour feeder, but early morning
and late afternoon are the surest times
to get him right.
He is an active rogue. and continu-
ally rising from the bottom to the
surface, at times jumping above the
water in pursuit of food. De changes
his home and feeding ground as the
season passes In the spring he is
found in shallow water in stre9Vns and
rivers, below rapids and rifles, and as
the water warns up he moves to deep
pools sheltered by logs, weeds or
ledges. During the summer, he Mi
crates to greater depths, where the
water is cool.
The same Is true of the lake bass.
In the spring he frequents the shall
low places, but later he goes into the
weeds and lily pads. The small-mouth
bass favors stony bars or shoals vary
ing In depth from 9 to 40 or 80 feet,
while the large-mouth prefers weeds
and muddy bottoms.

Mars Green as Well as Red.

A few weeks ago we mentioned that
an English astronomer had gone to
Teneriffe to. make observations of
Mars during the planets nearest ap.
proach to the earth for the past 13
years Mr.. 2. Ryves recently sent the
following message to London paper !:
MY instruments have been installed
at lzana at an altitude Of 5000 feet.
Tho sky is cloudless.
"Mars has been observed at about
the time of its least distance from the
earth. Snow around both planets
poles is abundant. The south temper
ate regions are dark and pronouncedly
greenish.
The rest of the side of the planet
now visible shows little detail, but
there are red color marks suggesting
clear, dry weather over this part of
Mars."-Montreal Family Herald.

WE STAND ON CAPITULATIONS

A REPORT from Lausanne indicates
that in the conference with the
Turks the American representatives
will oppose any project to abandon the
extra-territorial privileges which per-
init Americans in Turkey to be tried by
American courts. The American theory
is that the Turkish law is based on re-
hgious tenets, to which the foreigners,
including Americans, do not subscribe,
and that when the lives and property of
Americans are involved it is only natural
they should desire to retain these juri.
dicial exemptions already authorized
either by tradition or treaty. *
This is in harmony with assurances
recently given by the Republican Pub
licity Association, at which times the
Association stated: Certainly the
American government would not con-
sent to submit it's nationals to a system
of justice which declares that murder
is no crime in the eyes of Islam when
the slayer is Moslem and his victim is
Christian or Jew-to a system which
in Turkey is purely religious and the
judges of which derive their main
tenance from church lands"
For long time the United States
and the other Christian nations insisted
on, and. were accorded, capitulatory
rights in Japan because the legal code
of that country was violative of inter-
national sanctions. Japan at length
adopted an enlightened code of munich
pal law which met with international
approval, and the capitulatory rights
became obsolete. What Japan has done
Turkey can do, and not. until the Kem-
alists have followed Japan's example
will the Christian nations submit to the
abrogation of the capitulations.

MAKING THE CORN MARKET
BETTER

Last winter board of county COM
missioners in Iowa had all the public
buildings of their county heated with
corn as the fuel instead of coal, justi-
flying this action on the ground that
corn thus burned would help the
market for the rest of the grain. 1t
turned out that at almost any time af-
ter the fires fed by the corn had died
out the corn could have been sold for
from SO to so cents bushel on the
open market, and if fed to cattle, hogs,
sheep or poultry would have brought
81 or more a bushel.
1t is true that the season of 1922
spect to the spread between the price
of grain and the price of livestock.
The profit of the feeder over that of
the seller Of grain has been greater
this year than usual, and is not ex-
pected to continue on the present bas-
is.
But in our enthusiasm for building
up farmer-controlled organization
through which to market grain, we
should not lose sight of the fundamen-
tai fact that the best market for
coarse grains such as corn, oats and
barley, year in and year out, is thru
good livestock. When fed to we'll
bred animals such grains yield larg-
er return than when sold under any
system of marketing we are likely
to be able to devise. This is true for
two reasons. Raising and feeding live
stock furnishes profitable employment
to the farmer at seasons when, if he
were grain farming alone, he would be
out of work. Short-time employment
on the farm means low annual in
come for the farmer, just as short
time employment in the city does for
the carpenter, bricklayer and plaster
er.
Feeding grain and returning manure
to the land helps keep the soil fresh
and productive. Selling grain is the
most effective way yet devised of
wasting land.
While through cooperative selling
the farmer may have a better return
from the portion Of corn, oats or bar
ley that he sells in a raw state, yet
this should be a small proportion Of
the total output. The most important
change yet to be made in our system
Of marketing coarse grains is in rails
ing the standards of the farm animals
through which the farmer sells these
products; in the wider use Of legunie
supplements in his system of feeding
and better system of selling live
stock products.
Exclusive hay and grain farming is
a poor system requiring no great
amount Of intelligence and yielding a
low return. Raising crops and feed
ing them to well bred animals is a
high type of agriculture, requiring
close application and much intelli-
gence. Livestock farming maintains
soil fertility and yields incomes large
enough to support high standards Of
family life.
