POLAND SUPPORTS
new LEAGUE PACT

by the Associated Press
GENEVA, September 1.-THE pro-
posed pact for mutual assistance
among the nations which the COM
missions of the league OF nations now
are celebrating a a new Internal tioaal
agreement calculated to solidify world
peace received the formal support of
Poland II todays meeting of the as
sembly. Former Premier Skirmunt of
Poland declared that il the league ac-
cepted this pact when it was perfected
BY suitable amendments all doubts
about the usefulness of the lea que
would be removed.
The pact is being attacked BY
number of the small states on the
ground that ii does not provide
clear and practical plan for the re-
duction of military ornaments and
also because it authorizes regional
defensive alliances which il is feared
may increase world perturbation
rather than calm it. The whole
scheme will doubtless be debated by
the assembly before action i5 taken
upon it.

JERSEY PASTURES
NEED ATTENTION

"The pasture lands of New Jersey
receive very little attention, as a re-
suit they do not produce anywhere
nea the amount of pasturage they
might is the observation Of the
specialist in farm crops at the State
College of Agriculture.
"Many of our dairy farmers could
increase their profits by improving
their pastures. The best methods of
improvement vary according to cir
cumstance. If the land can be titled
fairly easily a good plan is to run it
through a rotation, or at least put it
to a crop of small grain, followed by
~re-seeding to grass and clover. Ma
nure, lime, and fertilizer should be
used and it might be desirable to NOV
the grass the first year after seeding
down.
"Most farmers, however, will not
find it convenient to cultivate pasture
land. For such men the best method
of pasture improvement will be the
use of top dressings. A ton of ground
limestone-or its equivalent in other
forms of lime-together with 400
pounds of acid phosphate to the acre,
will be of much benefit in increasing
the stand and growth of clover and,
indirectly, of the grasses. In addition
to using lime and fertilizer many
farmers could to advantage make
light applications of stable manure to
their pasture lands. 1t will often be
found more profitable to use less ma
nure on corn land and more on the
pastures and meadows. The fall sea
son is a good time to make these top

OF which a charity fund OF jersey
City was to receive the net profits of

were started before Justice Swayze
to have the shows stopped, Vice Chan

that no charge of criminal neglect of
