Origin, Of Jury Trial

Trial by Jury" Chief Justice Clark
shows that "broad as are the pro-
visions Of Magma Charta and great as

history, it has no claim to be styled

1t had nothing whatever to do" The
chief justice says trial by jury was ut

Free Use of Fertilizer
Increases Crop Profits

The. Windsor county, VT, farm bu-
reau has announced the results Of a
test Of the effects of various ferti-
lizers on potatoes on The farm Of K.
II. Atwood at Bridgewater. In addl-
tion to generous dressings Of stable
manure. 400, 600 and 1000 pounds Of
a 1874 fertilizer. and 500 and 1000
pounds Of a 3-S-8 were compared with
no fertilizer.
The largest yield and the largest
net profit followed an application Of
1000 pounds per acre Of a 3-8-4.
County Agent G. J., Frink. however,
>basing his advice on previous tests and
experience, recommends from 400 to
600 pounds of a high-analysis fertili-
ger, when liberal applications of sta
BILE manure also are made. ut is very

Steady Growth Is Seen
in Pure Bred Holsteins

An average Of $500 registrations
and 1920 transfers month during the
years 1921, 1922 and 1923 indicates
that the pure bred Holstein cattle
business is growing steadily despite
adverse live stock conditions which
have prevailed during this period.
Membership in the Holstein-Friesian
Association Of America increased at
the rate Sef from 1873 each month in
1921 to 149 in 1923. S
Since 1885. when this organization
Of HoIstein breeders was established
under Its present name, to January 1,
1924. 1899, 129 certificates of registry
and 1,291.9 1853 certificates of transfer
have been issued. Registrations num-
bered S77,520 for females and 421 500
for males. OF the transfers issued
860,24O were foy females and 431 ,71S
for males. A total Of over $4,000 Hol-

Importance of Yield to
Crop Production Costs

Investigators of the Cornell IN. -
experiment station have published the
results Of their efforts to obtain in
formation on the production and costs
Of the principal canning crops grown
In that state. The report contains
much of interest regarding peas. THE
cost per ton of peas,' states L. ]. Nor
ton, sis very closely related to the
yield per acre" Thus on 101 farms
where yields averaged 2,1S8 pounds
per acre, the return was $40 per acre
more than: on 81 farms averaging 1852
pounds. Furthermore. on 80 farms
averaging 2,9S8 pounds per acre, the
increased return advanced tof$52 per
acre. These Increased returns were
produced at an average, total. cost Of
81 per acre. The three factors that
seemingly had the most to do with
increasing the rate Of yields, were
fertilizer, manure and lime. 1t was
found that the yield per acre advanced
almost exactly in the same order as
did the amounts of fertilizer and
manure used, particularly the former.

One OF the great general problems
faced by the United States Department
Of Agriculture and by state experiment
stations Is the curtailing Of loss Of
crops through deterioration before they
can be marketed or consumed. The
prevention Of such wastes, brought
about by the agency of micro-organ-
isms, Insects, fire, water, and other
destructive agencies, Is to q large ex-
tent a problem for the agricultural
chemist. This problem" says Dr. G.
A., Browne, chief Of the bureau Of
chemistry. IL equal in importance to
that Of the utilization of,waste."
Loss to Sugar Industry.
Nearly all crops are subject to loss
through deterioration. In an address
to the Institute Of Chemical Engineers,
Doctor Browne called attention to a
number Of the more important ones.
The losses to the sugar industry from
deterioration OF the harvested crop
between field and factory, or from de-
terioration4 Of the raw sugar between
factory and refinery, amount each year
to many millions of dollars. The same
Is true of many other agricultural
commodities. The department has
numerous projects under way in the
field of loss prevention; among these
may be mentioned the checking Of
the deterioration of paper and leather,
improvements in dehydration and other
methods for reducing, the spoilage Of
foods, the prevention Of dust expl0-
sions. and. the proofinR Of fabrics
against damage BY water, mlldew. and
FIRE.
Spontaneous Combustion
{. A large number of unsolyed chemical
problems relate to this subject Of loss
prevention, according to Doctor
Browne. The agricultural interests Of
the country suffer millions Of dollars
worth Of damage each year from
spontaneous combustion. but the
chemical mechanism by which q NOV
of hay or car of stock feed catches
fire is not as yet explained. Less spec
tacular, but more generally destruc-
tive, is the deteriorative effect Of at

The Importance Of not allowing a
single weed TO produce seed cannot be
urged too often. But. If that has been
neglected, burning over the ground in
the fall or winter. or before blowing in
spring will destroy many weed seeds
and save weeks Of labor in raising the

feasance in office Mr.. keller's resolu-
tion was referred to the judiciary COM
mlttee, and on Mr.. Daugherty'S demand
the committee required Mr.. Keller to
file a bill of particulars. He then made
fourteen specific charges, all carrying
general assertion of deliberate failure
and neglect, fraud and deceit.
When the committee tried to obtain
from Mr.. Keller supporting evidence,
it failed to get anything it regarded d
as definite, and the Minnesota mem
ber finally claimed the inquiry was
not being fairly conducted, and said
he was through with the case. Fur
ther efforts to get him to testify

Attack on Injunction.
Officials of the American Federation
OF Labor appeared in the inquiry to
support the attack on the injunction
he obtained in Chicago against the
rail strikers. The Attorney Generals s
friends claimed this was one of his
boldest strokes in protecting public
interest, while his enemies condemned
the action most vigorously. He in
sisted, also, that he had acted as d
sincere friend of labor.
There was much controversy. too,
over Mr.. Daugherty's ruling that
foreign ships could not bring liquor
stores into American waters and that
American ships must remain dry
wherever they may be. Only the
former of these two propositions was
upheld by the Supreme Court.
Recently there have been repeated
attacks on the Department OF Justice
in regard to delays and failures to
convict in the war fraud cases.
Notable among these cases was the
Chemical Foundation proceeding and
that against Charles W. Morse, in
neither of which was the department
able to get a favorable verdict.
Basis of Investigation.
The war frauds prosecutions and
the delay in prosecuting those ac-
cused in the Veterans Bureau and
oil inquiries were among the specific
questions referred to in the reSolu-
tion of Senator Wheeler, democrat,
asking the Senate investigation. This
resolution was introduced after a re-
quest for a hearing had been made
by Mr.. Daugherty on the basis of a
previous resolution by Mr.. Wheeler
demanding his resignation.
Mr.. Daugherty was born at Wash
ington Court House, Ohio, and passed
his sixty-fourth birthday last Jan

when his father died, and through his
own efforts obtained an education.
