conference.
NJ. A. Traylor, American delegate, had
attempted to compromise on the prob
lem. Although there seemed general
support In principle for his suggestions,
they failed of adoption because of the
zeal of the conference to keep the bank

to be.
Yet even now, once every Winter or
so, there comes fog that Is quite suf-
ficiently dense to turn London into a
city Of adventure and to cause even the
experienced cockney to lose his way q
few hundred yards from his own door
step.
The average person rather ENJOYS
these visitations; but to the railway
companies they are an iinmitigated
nuisance. Trains run later and later
behind the schedule time and an army

tonators on the lines when the enri-

Cost Runs High.
The cost to the railway companies of
q thick fog runs into many thousands
of pounds, and if, as is quite possible,
it lasts for two or three days, the prof
its of a weeks normal running NAV
be wiped out.
The trafic police, too, have their
troubles during a "pea-souper," for
private cars, omnibusses, trucks and
other vehicles are apt to get into
hopeless tangle at such congested points
as Trafalgar Square, even though great
glowing braziers are imported in an
effort to pierce the gloom.
Thus, there still remains some truth
in the legend of the London fog, though
1t must be confessed that 1t is both
much less frequent and in general, con-
siderably less dense than the American
believes and the Englishman-who is
secretly rather proud Of the phenome-
non-may give him to understand.

VOTE THURSDAY.
ON DEBENTURE
Coalition Of Republicans
And Democrats Feel
Win Over Hoover

WASHINGTON, June i2-R-
The house will vote, probably to-
morrow, on the export debenture
plan Of farm relief. To that extent,
at least. the coalition of democrats
and republican independents in the
senate who have s~teadfastly insist
Cd upon inclusion OF this proposal
I'm the general farm bill stood victo-
rious today over the opposition Of
President Hoover and his support
ers In congress.
The agreement TO bring the issue
TO a vote in the house. where such
action ht5 been resisted throughout
the long controversy that has held
up enactment Of the farm relief
legislation, vas reached at a White
House conference last night after
the senate had rejected the joint
conference report recommending
elimination Of the dcbenture sec
ton from its bill.
The White House meeting. at
tended by republican leaders Of
both branches of congress. was
called after the president had made
public a statement reiterating his
opposition to the debenture plan
and expressing in unmistakable
terms his support Of the compro-
mise bill presented IN the joint con-
ference report and accepted by the
house.
Senate democratic leaders today
regarded the decision TO bring the
debenture plan to a vote in the
house virtually as a complete vic
tory for their contention. Senator
Robinson of Arkansas. democratic
leader. asserted in a statement is
sued after the senate rejected the
report. that IF the house takes a
vote and rejects the debenture plan.
its advocates i'm the senate will be
constrained to Yield. and the bill
will be passed With debentures
v eliminated"
The senate vote on rejection OF
the report WAS As to 43. as com
pared with Az to "A at the time the
plan was written into the bill after
President Hoover had outlined his
opposition to 1t on ten counts.

TOP DRESSING AIDS RETARDED
WHEAT

Not small part of the Sc aver
age increase per acre in State wheat,
from 1880 to 1928, may be attribu-
led to the increasing practise OF top
dressing winter wheat with nitrog-
genous fertilizers in the spring, it is
said by F. w. Oldenburg, Extension
Service agronomist for the Universi-
ty of Maryland. Top dressing be-
came more popular, especially dur
ing the last fifteen years, because of
the reduction in price of nitrates due
to the introduction of synthetic MI
.rogen. In addition, interest was
aroused through the experiment
work which was, and is, being con-
Quoted by the educational bureau of
the National Fertilizer Association
and educational departments of
other fertilizer companies in cooper
alton with the various agricultural
colleges.
Nitrogen is of particular help to
the farmer in increasing yields
where the wheat made poor growth
during the fall and was retarded by,
4 wet spring. Under these circum-
stances the application of from one
to two pounds of top dressing has
increased the yield of wheat, per
acre, from five to ten and even fifteen
bushels. Top dressing should be
put on the wheat as soon after
growth starts in the spring as pos
sible. which is generally from March
fifteenth to April fifteenth, depend
ing upon the general location of the
farm. The amount of fertilizer to
be applied will depend upon the soil
fertility and condition of the wheat.
Any grower desiring, to top dress
his wheat this spring may receive
additional information and assis-
lance in doing so from his county
agent or the Extension Service of the
University of Maryland.
