Difficulty In Getting Members
Tin TO date, the party heads have
ksd difficulty in finding the right per-
sons, That, Mr.. Baker said. was due
largely TO the vacation season. lie
lid il had been found impossible to
set into touch with some of those pro-
Sosed for membership. He feels con-
xIent, however. of getting the requisite,
number of men and women acceptable
n every candidate on the ticket, as was
nromiscd after Mr.. Pinchot threatened
70 conduct his own campaign unless
the State Committee rcnounced It's
fine. .honored custom of assessing State
oficeholders.
Little aid in raising money is ex-
pected from politicians. many Of whom
still feel the sting Of the Alter defeat.
They think Mr.. Pinchot's friends will
come forward with unlimited funds to
insure his election.
The sum of 500, 900 has been named
os necessary to finance the campaign by
political leaders here who were promi :
nent in the Alter campaign.
s25O,OOO Enough. Says Baker
Mr.. Baker ridiculed that idea and
said he had prepared figures showing the
amount raised by the State Committee
In past campaigns for guidance now.
When Sproul ran for Governor in
1918, Mr.. Baker said. the State Com
mittee raised S257.97S.S5 and sper!
S242, ,2GS.O4. In the Harding prcsiden

and S103. .277.G0 spent. In 1914, when
Brumbaugh and PenrOse were candi =

sation collected S153.S9 and spent

later.
Mr.. Baker thought $3.50. 900 would be
enough this year, us he and Mrs. War

Silent on Sieuths

David J. Smyth. City Solicitor,
has ruled that Director Cortelyou
does not have to reveal the identity of
his secret police who are paid out of
the $4,000 confidential fund given him
by Council for special investigations.
The question of expenditures from
the fund was brought about through
Director Cortelyou's refusal to lie, Con"
troller Hadley know the names of the
men hired to make the private investi-
cations. Director Cortelyou said II the
men became known their lives would
be in jeopardy.
The affair was brought to head
when Controller Had!ey refused to ap-
prove warrant for $500 drawn by
Director Cortelyou.
AS soon as Director Cortelyou re-
ceived City Solicitor Smyths opinion
the warrant for the $500 was sent back
to Mr.. IIadley for approval.

Alfalfa Growers.
= Alfalfa Growers.

Down near Fair Play and South
Union three nice fields Of alfalfa are
seen Oh the farms Of l.. B. Marett,
Geo. Davis and w. II. Casey. Mr..
Marett started his alfalfa last fall,
made two cuttings. He prepared the
aand ahead, however, by turning
under some legumes and giving the
soil more humus, and also lining it
we'll. Mr.. Casey started his alfalfa
in tho fall Of 1920, while Mr.. Davis
started his about this time or earlier.
Several other farmers contemplate
sowing an acre or few acres this
fall. Among these are Marett Farm
and Seed Company, }. Fl. NJ. Whit
>mire and Coke S. Campbell. Those
"ho contemplate sowing should bear
III mind that even the very best land
we have is none too good for the
king Of legumes," and our best land
needs one or two sowings with leg
umes and turning them all under
and lining with at least four tons
per acre Of ground limestone before
the fields are ready to SOW.
There Is 10 better crop grown than
alfalfa, and no richer feed, nor cas-
Ter TO handle. 1t also helps the far
mer to get out Of the fodder busi-
ness, which Is something worth your
feeding, which is appreciated by the
livestock
Sow your best land now in peas or
velvet beans to turn under ahead Of
alfalfa If you intend sowing.
