terms. 1t was these editorials under
which the senators on the other side,
in charge of this bill, squirmed and
writhed. 1t was these editorials that
drew their fire. But, it became nee
essary to ascribe sinister and a cor
rupt motive to the newspapers, es-
pecially of the Republican press, that
were so severely criticizing and de-
nouncing this bill; and then for the
first time. coming in force, in over
whelming force, we saw and heard
these assaults upon the department
stores and the importers. For what?
For the purpose OF firing an ulterior
and unworthy motive upon the news
papers for their attacks upon the
bill"
81 say here now" the senator con-
tinued, "and l challenge successful
contradiction, that up to this time
there is not one particle of eveidence
to sustain this charge of the United
States except the bare. unsupported
statements of those who have made
the charge in the senate. Therefore,
ask, have you proven your case?
You certainly have not prove it
against the importers as to prices or
against the department stores as to
prices. Where is your evidence to es-
tablish your charge-a charge that
involves and presupposes almost un.

more in diameter and having special
devices for preventing clogging at
the outlet. Where it is necessary to
use an old style gun, the arsenate
should be mixed with an equal bulk
of sifted wood ashes. The dust'ng
should be done when there is no
breeze, either in the morning when
the dew is on the plants or in the
evening. An active operator can
dust several acres IN a day.
Under average conditions from
three to five pounds of the arsenate
an acre Is sufficient for one dusting.
At least two dustings should be made
while third is sometimes necessary.
Where it is necessary to apply the
poison as a spray, because of the
lack of busting apparatus, from three
to five pounds of the arsenate should
be used to 100 gallons of water.
Brands of arsenate of lead containing
at least 80 per cent arsenic oxid, OF
Which not more than one per cent is
free of water soluble, should be used.

that subsequent preparation will help
distribute it through the soil. Unless
the soil is known to be naturally sup
piled with lime, this material should
be applied at the rate of three or four
tons of ground limestone an acre or
one-half this amount of burned lime.
I'm all parts of the state outside
of the central bluegrass region it is
desirable to apply from four to five
hundred pounds of acid phosphate an
acre. This may be done any time
after the limestone is applied and
previous to seeding and should be
narrowed into the soil.
Just before seeding, it is a good
practice to harrow and roll the
ground. The seed should not be GOV.
cred any deeper than is necessary
to get it in contact with moist soil
and in no case deeper than one and
one-half inches. II it turns dry after
seeding. rolling may help. The sub
surface type of roller is best for this

HORNWoRMS START ANNUAL
RAID ON TOBACCO PLANTS

Tobacco growers are facing the an
nual task of ridding their plants of
hornworms, recognized as the worst
insect pest of the crop in Kentucky,
according to H. H. levitt, entomolo-
gist at the Kentucky Agricultural
Experiment Station. The adults, or
moths, appear from the first week in
June to about the middle of August,
while the maximum number of
worms are apparent in the field about
August Is, he said. The worms are
so destructive that tobacco could
not be grown successfully without
the use of control measures for them,
he added
Hand worming cannot be relied
upon to keep tobacco free from the
worms, even with the most careful
examination of each plant, while Pa
ris green, which formerly was used
suite extensively to kill the pests, is
giving way to arsenate of lead. The
latter material adheres to the plants
longer than does Paris green and,
therefore, is more effective, while it
rarely Injuries the plants even when
an excessive amount is used. This
material has an added advantage in
that it can be used during periods
of unsettled or rainy weather.
The arsenate of lead is applied 10

The old style guns are being replac-
ed by those with fans ten inches or

SIMMONS DEFENDS PRESS

While the metropolitan press is
being assailed in the senate in the
interest of tariff extortionists. II does
not lack defenders in that body. The
able Democratic senator from North
Carolina (Mr. Simmons), former
chairman OF the finance committee,
not only defended the integrity OF
the press. but exposed the reasons
for the assault in his usual clear and
forcible manner in a recent speech.

SUMNER ALFALFA SEEDING
BEST DONE AUGUST 10 10

Under favorable moisture condi-
tions, the summer seeding of alfalfa
is best done in Kentucky from Au-
gust 10 to TO- according to George
Roberts, head of the agronomy de-
partment of the Kentucky Agricultu-
raj Experiment Station. When seed
ed at this time of the year, the crop
usually follows wheat, oats, rye, ear
ly potatoes or any other crop that
comes off early. Farmers who ex-
pect to seed alfalfa this summer
should prepare the ground for it as
early as possible, Mr.. Roberts de-
clares.
THE ground should be broken six
or seven inches deep and worked
down to a well pulverized, firm con-
dition. 1t usually is a good plan to
precede the breaking by disking. AT
this time of the year it is also usual
lY advisable to drag or harrow each
days breaking in order to pulverize
the clods before they dry out. The
soil should be narrowed after rains
in order to conserve moisture. II
also is desirable to harrow whenever
young weeds or grasses appear since
alfalfa does not thrive in their pres
ence.
IF the ground is to be lined 1t IL
a good plan to put the material OF

CAREFUL cRossINe CAMPAIGN

ChHEFOL CHOooiNG ShWTftcN
During June, the first month of the
Careful Crossing Campaign" the
Chesapeake and Ohio railway did not
have single highway crossing acci-
dent at any point on its more than
$500 miles of track. This would in
dicate that this campaign, which was
inaugurated by the American Rail
way Association through its safety
section, is making an impression on
motorists in the territory covered by
the Chesapeake and Ohio.
II is difficult to understand why
there should be failure to respond to
the appeal to the posters being used
to advertise the Careful Crossing
Crossing Campaign" which portray a
crossing condition such as exists at
thousands of points and a practice
that is being INDUCED in daily by
thousands of automobilists-that of
trying to beat the train across the
track.
The railroad safety officers, COM
prising the safety section of the
American Railway Association, hope
the campaign will demonstrate that
by using reasonable care the horrors
of the Highway Crossing Crash"
win he lessened greatly.
There is vast need of EDUCATION
and acknowledgment of personal re-
sponsibility for safety at highway
crossings, and upon no one does this
responsibility rest more heavily than
upon the driver of the motor We
hicle.
The automobile driver sometimes
resents an inclination on the part OF
other persons to protect him from
harm at highway crossings. A case
in point is as follows:
Since the Careful Crossing Cam
paign" started a Chesapeake and
Ohio safety worker tried to stop an
at a crossing, but was
when the driver ran
over the crossing in front of an ap-
preaching passenger train. In fact,
the safety man was forced to jump |
aside to avoid being run down by the
The driver stopped af- |
ter crossing, and displayed great in
dignation, abusing the man who had
tried to save him from harm.
Besides the driver, the car contain
ed two mothers with babies in their
arms and an old lady who may have
been the drivers mother. 1t is need
less to state that while the driver
was deaf to entreaty and warning,
the safety worker received his re-
ward in the thanks of the mothers.
Crossing Crossings Cautiously"
takes only a little thought, a little |
care and possibly moments time |
The results can be measured only in
terms of lives saved, limbs unbroken
and homes that have not been rem
dered grief stricken. Certainly the
owners and drivers ought
to display an active interest and par
ticipate to their utmost in this great
undertaking.
