THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOClATION
CONDITIONS NOT SO TERRIBLE.

The Filipinos are assailed as in
competents because there are HARD
times in the islands, just as if the
United States itself had not been
and is not today in the throes OF
financial depression from coast to
coast as a result Of the readjust-
ment following the war. For proof
of this consult any of the hundreds
of thousands of workingmen who
have been out of work all winter, or
the farmer of the west and middle
west, who has had to scratch his
head to keep from losing his farm or
going into bankruptcy because the
bottom has fallen out of prices.
It is claimed that the roads have
deteriorated, and yet the Philippine
Islands have several thousand miles
of good roads that will put the aver
age American roads to shame.
The Filipino people are far from
perfect, we admit, and do not have
the same capacity for doing things
perhaps that Americans have. But,
like all peoples made in the image
Of their Creator, they have some
good qualities, and there are excep-
final instances where even the
United States could take lessons
from their conduct. There are nj
such things as lynching parties in
the Philippines, and statistics will
bear us out in the statement that
there is less crime disorder andrso-
cial unrest in the islands per capita
than in the United States itself.
AS to the unmitigated misrepre
sentation that is going the rounds of
the American press just now to the
effect that the Filipinos do not de-
sire independence, we only answer
that we will be perfectly satisfied to
have that question submitted to the
people Of the islands, and will cheer
fully abide by their decision.-Press
Bulletin.

Mr.. Taylor dwells largely on the

President Harding has become
convinced that single term of six
years for American Presidents, with
no reelection thereafter, would bet
ter serve the interests of the people
than the present method.
One year in Office has revealed to
him so many phases of the presi-
dency which would be benefited by a
single term that from an impersonal
basis he is Of the opinion now that
a constitutional amendment provid-
ing for the change would be good
thing. Representative Wood of In
diana has already introduced bill
covering such an amendment to the
Federal Constitution, but it takes a
two-thirds vote of the Senate and
House, as well as approval by the
Legislatures of three fourths of the
States of the Union, to make the
change effective.

A COUNTY PROGRAM OF SOIL.
BUILDING.
BUILDING,


This year completes a ten-year
period Of farm bureau work in the
Northern and Western States. Thous-
ands Of demonstrations of the i'm
portance of the various factors ar
fecting soil fertility, 1. e.; lime, till
age. crop rotation, manure, legumes.
drainage and fertilizers have been
made. They have been of tremend-
GUS value in pointing the way to
more profitable farming, and are
creating desire for comprehensive
soil-building programs.
Farmers are realizing more and
more that soil fertility can never be
reduced to simple formula. Lee
gumes, for example, build up the
nitrogen and organic content of the
soil at the expense of the mineral
elements which must be added SOON
er or later. Increased yields obtain
ed by the use of lime merely accent
uate the deficiency of phosphorus
and potassium. Long continued use
OF phosphates has developed an ur-
gent need for potash in many soils.
Some crops have a high lime re-
Quirement, some are Indifferent to
lime and few grow best in an acid
soil. These and other similar ex-
amples show that only a complete.
well-balanced, soil fertility program
can adequately meet the require
ments Of the future.
Local farm bureaus are frequent
ly petitioning for soil surveys and
some are aiding in the establishment
of county demonstration fields.
Tracts Of land are either leased for
long period Of years. or are pur-
chased outright and operated jointly
by the county farm bureau and the
State experiment station. The DEM
onstrations will become more valu-
able from year to year and will fur
nish the basis upon which a broad
program Of soil improvement and
fertility maintenance can be devel-
oped.

ENGLISH TEA IN DIPLOMACY

Perhaps the penetration Of the Eng
fish tea into the Versailles conference
was one of the most remarkable Of
its achievements. writes Muriel Harris
in the North American Review. In
a sense, of course. the conference was
itself something Of a return TO a state
Of society when society was small and
international and not, as today, large
and Intensely national. Nobody who
was uncOnnected with the conference
had for the moment any particular in
tereSt. and a limited and cosmopolitan
society was thus the cynOsure of every
eye. When Mr. BalfOur diverted VI.
Clemenceau with tea, IL was an inter
national Incident, I'm the sense almost
that upon the frOwn of kings mis-
treSs depended the fate of nations.
And Ii was tea made with canned
milk. too Was il a ruse of the willy
Lloyd George? Did he realize how
tea helped the inarticulate English
man? How IL gave him something
to do with his hands, filed In the
pauses I'm his conversation, compen-
stated for his French-or lack of it
and. most OF all among the voluble
Latins. gave him the feeling of being.
after all, at home?

One OF the oldest methods Of OBJ
tanning power. by means of the wind
mill, will be used on the newest air
planes between London and the Con-
tinent for the purpose of obtaining
electricity for lighting the passengers
cabins. The dynamos will be driven by
the wind as the air expresses speed
along at 100 miles an hour. How
long. one wonders, will Ii be before
further attempts are made To utilize
the power of wind that is daily going
10 waste? Steam and oil send mighty
liners blowing through the ocean, while
the wind sweeps. along as over a des-
ert. Express trains rush through the
country at sixty miles an hour, AMI
the wind creates nothing but q draft.
If dynamos were fixed to the roofs
of the carriages, as in the case OF
the airplane. perhaps the electricity for
lighting, heating, and cooking could
be obtained practically for nothing.
