BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

October 3, 1S14.-Residents of the
District were surprised and greatly
disturbed when the House today voted
that it was "expedient" to remove the
seat Of Government to some other
place. The vote was merely prelimi-
nary, and the resolution for removal
was thereupon referred to the COM
mittee of the whole for further con-
sidera ton.
The immediate cause of the Senti-
ment for removal was the burning of
the Capitol and other buildings by the
British in the previous August. An
analysis of the vote in the House in
Dictated that on final showdown, with
all Of the members present, the reso-
luton would be defeated by very
narrow margin. The Senate was be-
lieved to he strongly against removal.
Gen. William Winder, who com.
manded the American force at the
Battle of Bladensburg, today wrote a
letter. defending the conduct of the
Washington and Georgetown militia

praised the zeal, spirit and obedience
of the local units, declaring that they
showed utmost readiness to form
again between the Capitol and the

but he considered that useless, in view
of the dispersion of the front line.
October 3, 1S99.-All Washington
and the Nation on this day did honor
to Admiral Dewey. victor in the Battle
of Manila Bay. President Mckinley
and the admiral rode to the Capitol in
a great military procession through
cheering thrOngS on Pennsylvania
avenue. At the east front of the Capt..

was presented to Admiral Dewey with
impressive ceremony.

Teasing is bullying. Boys do not
tease those who are as strong as they
are. They usually pick on the little
ones. Instead of threatening them
with the anger of their father, it would
be better to settle them at once. Hold
them responsible for annoying their
sister. Punish them Immediately. Set
one in corner of a room, in silence
for half an hour, the very first motion
he makes toward teasing a younger
one. and he will think longer before
starting in the next time. And the
next time make IT an hour. Silence
and isolation offer a good cure for the
bully who leases his little sisters.

North Dakota mines were unionized
shortly after the war but the union
was broken several years ago when
union officials refused to make a
separate scale agreement for the
North Dakota Ignite field, it was
explained.
Since the North Dakota mines are
not unionized the strike is expected
to help their business. When the
last strike occurred in the Pennsyl-
vania field the use of Ignite was
materially increased in this and ad-

compiled by the state railroad board.
Persons who had been using eastern

product since.

Reports Indicate
Smaller Acreage
of Wheat and Flax

Approximately 14,5OO application
blanks for use by farmers desiring
state feed and seed loans have been
sent out by the state department of
agriculture and labor, j. A. Kitchen,
department head, said today.
Hundreds of applications have
gone to counties in which it has
generally been supposed that there
was mo need of aid, Kitchen said,
but the great majority have been
sent to counties which were known
to have been hard hit by last years
drought.
Financial difficulties which have
made it hard for farmers to obtain
seed and which also has prevented
them from hiring help to do spring
blowing and other work will result
in a reduction in the acreage plant
ed to wheat and flax as compared
with last year, reports to his office
indicate, Kitchen said.
Another factor in the case of flax
is that the dry fall weather in 1926
may result in more foul seed develop
ing on plowed land, Kitchen said.
He pointed out that one Of the es-
sentials of good flax crop is that
it be planted on land free from foul
seed.
Kitchen expects that acreage plant
ed to corn, oats, barley and rye will
be about the same as last year and
that sweet clover and alfalfa acre
ages will show an increase.
Spring blowing should begin with
in day or two, Kitchen said, the
usual time for the start Of such
operations being first week in April.
One factor in reducing the wheat
and flax acreage, Kitchen said, is
the small amount of fall blowing
done last year. The ground was
so dry and hard that fall blowing
was almost impossible in some Sec
tions, he said. As result all crops
planted this year must be on ground
pl0wed this spring.
