EMPLOYMENT STATEMENTS
 BASED ON CONJECTURE

Propaganda in behalf of il moditi- cation of the present laws governing immigration is suspected, in some quarters, to be the true intent of many articles and statements announcing shortage of labor in different parts of the United States.
 Robert Creswell. a writer for the New York Tribune, (Rep'l has been Investigating the basis of the employ ment figures issued by various public and private organizations and presents a verdict that challenges the accuracy of all such estimates.
 All the statements concerning shortages or surpluses of labor in this country that have recently been given out for public consumption have been based on conjecture and probability alone" says Mir Creswell

COURT ASKS JURY TO INDICT
 BUYERS OF ILLICIT LIQUOR.

Specific directions to the grand ju- " to indict buyers of liquor as well as the sellers, and those who deal in pistols and other concealed weapons, were given hy Circuit Judgs John F. Tatum in his first charge to a grand jury in the Fort Smith. Ark. district, when the March term of circuit court opened, according to report received by Commissioner Haynes.
 The three great pitfalls of America are the disorderly houses, gambling and moonshining' the judge declared. These three are triplets, and like good twins. usually go hand in hand.
 The court calls on you in the name of the law you have sworn to support and everything that is holy and right eous, to sit down on these things hard and let's stamp them out of our body polite, for they are cancers and can kering sores in our society.
 The most infamous of them all is the bootlegger and moonshiner. Along next to them are the men and women who buy and drink the poisonous and rotten stuff and pay their money which enables the moonshiner and the bootlegger to debaueh the youths and carry on their death dealing business in open violation of the law.
 If you will indict the patrons of these joints, who drink the moonshine stuff, for entering into a conspiracy with the bootlegger an dthe moon- sinner to violate the law by paying out his money to carry on his unlaw ful business. then the matter can be fully tried out in the courts.-News item, Arkansas Democrat.

Why Burn Up Nitrogen and Then
 Buy It?

Why will Southern farmers year after year burn up millions of dollars worth of nitrogen right on soils that are so poor that these same farmers turn right around and pay millions ! of dollars for nitrogen in the form of commercial fertilizers?
 There are just two great big facts | ignorance of which we believe is main ly responsible for this vicious and rsinous policy on our part The first big fact which every father and mother ought to memOriZe and then require every boy and girl to memo rize. is this:
 1. Every leaf stalk. blade limb. or or trunk whether of grass, plant. or tree. if we put il back into the soil gives back to that soil the materials for making again the same general quantity of plant growth
 In other words, the constalks. cot tonStalks. or tobacco stalks left on the land have in them the ingredients for making other corn. cotton, or tobacco stalks. The good coating of grass on the old field or bottom land. if given back to the soil will make another harvest of growing vegetation as great or greater than the original. A tree trunk which n farmer in wooded areas will burn so quickly just to get it out of the way" has in il the materials needed for growing another tree trunk to take its place.
 In other words. we may look at any piece of land with a lot of dead vege- tation on it and say. There is ma terial for making an equal quantity of new vegetation already on the soil
 The second big fact which we are afraid we do not fully realize is simply this -
 ?. Whenever we burn up any dead vegetation, four fifths of its value as well as four-fifths of its bulk and weight goes up ill smoke,
 One foolish idea that we fear is Every widespread is that, "Oh, well. I'll get most of the fertility back in the ashes. IL isn't so Clean up your fireplace and start a fresh fire on the hearth Then weigh lot of heavy wood that you put on there-a load so heavy that Il strong man strains To carry it in Then burn it and weigh the resultant little bucketful or two of ashes that the wife easily carries out with one arm.
 It's queer how so much weight goes up in smoke but go it does. With wood, stalks, grass, leaves, pinestraw, it's all the same Burn them and the weight goes up in smoke. The fertility goes up in smoke The nitrogen goes up into the air Then we buy high priced nitrogen in sacks to take the place of what we burned up. GOT course in fighting boil weevils some burning is necessary, but by starting

FL. U. OF A. DEPARTMENT
Edited by NJ. l.. Lavender

The doctors and pharmacists are raising a howl about special acts of the late, lamented legislature passing a lot of special acts licensing q few men to prescribe medicine to people and horses and to mix drugs They are right. but only because special acts should never be passed. A special act always harms someone and they are generally passed with that end in view. However, my recollection is that these same professional gentle men were highly in favor of a lot of special road district acts passed hy the legislature in 1919.
