EARLY FALL FLOWING
BOOSTS SMALL GRAINS

Early fall blowing is desirable for
all small grains and helps to in
crease the yield, says A. C. Army, in
charge of farm crops at the Minnesota
Agricultural Experiment Station.
Mr.. Army was moved to make this
remark by report issued by the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment station
to the effect that for three years
at the Ohio station land plowed Au-
gust 1 gave an average yield of 81
bushels of wheat to the acre whereas
adjacent tracts plowed from two to
six weeks later gave from II to SO
bushels less to the acre.
Mr.. Army says that early fall plow-
ing is particularly desirable for wheat
and oats and that he has no doubt
that it is also as good for barley as
spring blowing.
The reason, that early fall blowing
increases yields is that it gives a
longer period for the decomposition
of stubble and other vegetable matter,
opens the soil to the fall rains, and
helps to eradicate weeds. Early fall
blowing has a further advantage of
lessening the amount of spring work
and permits the prompt sowing of
crops in the spring.

SOW THISTLE CROP
CALLS FOR ACTION

The sow thistle crop of this year
and reports of the spread of the weed
are creating demand for informa-
ton as to methods for control. A
circular issued by the agricultural
extension division of the department
of agriculture, University of Mime
sofa, for free distribution says that
cultivation will win"
Complete eradication, says the
circular, is possible by two rotations
of crops; one a three year rotation
of grain the first year, clover the
second year, and cultivated crop
the third year, or a four year rota-
ton of grain, clover hay, and corn,
followed by corn again.
For either of these rotations the
held is sown to grain and with grain
clover and timothy seed. The grain
is harvested, and the next year a
crop of clover hay is cut about the
first of July. AS soon as the hay
is removed the ground is plowed four
or five inches deep. 1t is then double
disked, to keep all green from show
ing, until August Is or September 1.
1t is then plowed about two inches
deeper than before and the disking
is continued until freezing weather
comes and again in the spring until
the cultivated crop is sown. The
four-year rotation provides second
year of cultivation to make the work
complete.

The death Of Il young woman In a
stra|stack fire at Carlisle. Iowa, last

Kansas City police advised Iowa
authorities that Mrs. Thompson had
appeared alive and well in that city,
and the local officials appeared con-
WINGED that Mrs. Thompson was the
same woman who Mrs. Harman said
was the murder victim.
Nothing further Of an official ma

found.
Despite Mrs. Harman's positive
Identification, the body still lies in a
local undertaking establishment, un-

WORKERS FAIL
TO RETURN TO
THEIR PLACES
General Strike Theoretically Y
Over. But Troubles Are
Not Yet Ended

London. May l3.--tP Great Brit
aims general strike theoretically is
over, but practically is still continu-
ing to function this morning, more
or less as it has for the last nine
days:
Throughout the country there is a
disposition thus far on the part Of
many unions to stand out. There
are various reasons for this. Among
them are the mems desire in some
instances to take advantage of the
strike to exact better terms of en-
ployment; sympathy with the miners,
who are still on strike; refusal of
some employers to discharge volun-
teer workers to make room for the
old employees and the edict issued by
other employers that they will not
take back the workers until they have
torn up their union cards.
This situation is possible because
the trades union congress, in calling
off the general strike, issued orders
that the men were not to return to
work pending instructions from their
individual unions.
Easy To Start, Hard To Stop
Comments were heard today that
it was far easier to start IA general
strike than to halt one. There was
some improvement in conditions this
morning, traffic accommodations be-
ing little better, but the citizen who
retired last night with the thought
that his troubles were ended was
amazed upon awakening to find that
he still had to walk to work and en-
durc other Inconvenience.
&, Even in London, volunteers con-
tinued to man the comparatively few
busses running, hardly any tram
ears were functioning, and the SUBJ
way service was about the same as
yesterday
The authorities predicted that
things would begin to right them
selves forthwith. although it would
take considerable time before condi-
tions approached anything like nor
NAL.
As far as the miners are concern
ed nothing is expected to develop be-
fore their national meeting OF dele
gates here tomorrow.
Much agitation was shown at trades
union congress headquarters this
morning on account of the men not
returning to work and it was admit
ted the situation was serious though
not alarming.
