SOIL EROSION
CAUSE EYED

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
W. Va, June 10.-Speaking be-
fore the annual fertilizer conven'
ton this morning, John B. Alb
bott, pasture specialist, discussed
the opportunity to improve pas
lures through the proper use OF
fertilizers.
According to Abbott, soil ero-
sion is an effect-not a cause
an effect caused by faulty agri-
cultural methods. He said:
"The soil originally contained
enough plant food so that once
cleared from forest, clover and
grass took immediate possession
and thus rendered it relatively
immune to erosion.
"But every grazing animal
and every quart of milk sold off
these pastures and every drop
Of percOIating water removed a
portion Of the never too abun-
dant supply of plant food,
hence-in a generation or two,
at mOst-cI0ver and grass be-
gan to fail. With that failure,
the soil was no longer well GOV.
cred, no longer bound together
with roots, and no longer inn
mune to erosion"
The practice of open pricing is
intended to serve two major pur-
poses, said Charles j. Brand in
an address before the convention,
of which he is executive secretary
and treasurer.
The first purpose is to bring
competition into the open so that
members of an industry and the
buying public may have access
to and reliable information as to
actual conditions in the market
instead of being compelled to rely
on rumors and on information
in many cases unreliable; the sec.
ord purpose is to serve, through
the publicity involved, as an i'm
portant adjunct in the enforce
ment Of fair trade rules, as, for
instance, in the prevention Of
secret rebates, unlawful price dis
ordinations, and sales below cost
and commercial bribery, he said,

BANDIT ALLOWS WOMAN TO
KEEP PRESENT FROM SON

A holdup victims plea that she
did not car if she lost her money,
but did not want to lose a handbag
given to her by her son at Christ
mas proved successful in a Billings
robbery a few days ago.
Mrs. James Browne reported to
police officers that she was &C
costed by the robber shortly after
she had parked her car in a ga
rage.
Facing the robber, Mrs. Browne
told him that "You a have the
money in the handbag, but not the
bag, because it was a Christmas
present from my son."
"An right" said the robber. I'm
not going to hurt you"
So the robber was given 81 and
some change and the woman kept
her Christmas present.

GRASS SUPPLY
IS PLENTIFUL
SHARP CONTRAST WITH YEAR
AGO WHEN SOME SEEDS
WERE SCARCE
(MoNTANA STATE coLLRGE)

Supplies of most grasses, particular
ly timothy, appear to be more than
enough for the usual needs Of farm
ers in the United States, according to
a report by the department of agri-
culture. The situation contrasts sharp
ly with that of a year ago when some
kinds of grass seed we're scarce. Farm
ers harvested more acres of grass for
seed in 1885 than the year before.
This increase in acreage, the bureau
says, is due chiefly to the high seed
prices last spring at seeding time, to
ample supplies Of hay, and to rather
favorable weather for farmers to grow
and harvest grass seed. Current prices
that farmers have received for seed of
pasture and hay grasses average only
about one-third as much as last year
and about half as much as usual.
