Fab and Sinclair charged the Dis
trict of Columbia Federal courts
erred in holding the Walsh act of
July 8, 1926, constitutional. This act
prohibited the appeal to the District
Of Columbia Court of Appeals from
any interlocutory order in a criminal
action.
The act, passed after Fall and Sim

Of Fall and Sinclair's special ap-

Fall and Sinclair alleged that Con-

Congress came back to work
today-the same Congress that
was given such q shaking UP
at the polls a month ago.
It faces a veritable noun
tain Of problems, with only u
scant weeks ii which to solve
them, and the opinion was
general among the leaders
when the gales fell that the
dying session Of the Sixty
ninth Assembly will pass into
history on March 4 with COM
paratively little accomplished
outside of the routine and the
necessary.
Sharp Fighting Expected
1t will be session, according
to its leaders, that will see much
sharp fighting, much political
maneuvering, much oratory, and
little of first rate accomplishment.
Lame duck" Congresses rarely
set any records for achievement,
and this one is expected to prove
no exception.
With the sentence of death al
ready passed upon it at the polls,
the efforts of the leaders will be
devoted to keeping legislation off
the statute books, rather than
seeing how much can be put on.

a special plea also is made Of
Congress by the Commissioners to

The law now provides that no more
than 125 per cent OF the assessed
value may be paid for land for

ROTATION OF CROPS
QUITE AS
AS USE FERTILIZER

IN the practice Of crop rotation a
farmer has at his command a ear
whereby he can materially reduce
acre costs or increase the output of
his land, says w. W. Weir, associate
soil technologist of the United States
department of agriculture. Perhaps
that fact is not news to many farm
ers who have been using rotation in
their crop system; they know it IS a
beneficial practice.
They may be surprised, however,
says Mr.. Weir, to learn that crop ro-
tation is nearly as effective in in
ereasing soil productivity as the use
AZ manure and commercial fertilizers.
Furthermore, crop rotation can be
practiced usually with no outlay of
money, whereas the use of commerce
ial fertilizers requires an expenditure
Of money.
4 study of the long-ccntinued soil
fertility experiments of this country
and Of England, made by the depart
ment Of agriculture, has brought out
some important facts about crop re-
tation in it's relation to soil produc-
tivity. In general, says MIR. Weir,
they show that rotation without the
use Of manure or commercial fer
tiIizcrs is nearly as efficient in effect
ing crop increases as the use of fer
t~ilizers without rotation. The bene-
fetal effects of crop rotation are
different from the benefits derived
from the use of fertilizers; so that
when these two farm practices are
combined the one practice adds to th5
benefits of the other, making the re.
suItant increase almost twice that Sc
cured by either practice used alone.
On soils long under cultivation
highest yields are possible only wher
rotation and the use of fertilizers arr
practiced together.
