SECRETARY ICKES-"D Donald
Duck has had little luck in playing
the pigeon of peace :"
cessful, that the liberals and the
conservatives had agreed to lie down
together like Isaiah's lamb and lion.
"Ickes departed. The fog lifted.
The fun began. Feathers began to
fall from discontinued doves. Man.
chester Boldly, Los Angeles publish
er, was the first to have himself in
cluded out. Too much Washington
influence, declared the liberal An
geleno. J. Frank Burke, California
radio station owner and political
commentator, who was the COVER
nor's campaign manager, was the
next to 60. c. I. o. and Workers
Alliance members next prevailed
upon California's lieutenant COVER
nor, Eli E. Patterson, to get off
the harmony ticket
Popular Patterson is now head
ing a slate of his own and the ticket
could not have been redder if the
names were Illuminated with GRIM
son neon. With Patterson now
thumbing his nose at the Ickes list
of harmony loving lads, it is ex-
pected that Cong. Lee E. Guyer will
be the next to take walk. (He has
already done so since this was writ
ten.) Finally, word had come from
McAdoo himself. I'm out of poll
tics ard am unwilling to re-enter.'
1.-THE self-elimination of McAdoo
from the Olson-McAdoo slate now
leaves the ticket headed by Cover
nor Olson and Olson is headed for
political oblivion what with recall
staring him in the face: more than
100000 signatures of the necessary
100000 have been secured on recall
petitions demanding new guberna-
torial election. With leading Demo-
Gratis and Republicans secretly
backing the movement, the election
will be coming along-about July.
"In other words, the old quack-
wack-Ickie, has waddled himself
into about the worst situation mag
Unable. He has left at the head of
his Roosevelt-for- ird-term-ticket a
governor whom more than 100000
registered voters have expressed a
desire to yank out Of office before
his term expires.
Gas if that were not enough, two
million ham and eggers, seeing a
chance for more nationwide atten-
ton, have entered their own slate
to contest the nomination.
"When Horrendous Harold first
came to California, there was pos
sibility of only two states, the Gar
ner delegation and the proposed
Roosevelt ticket. Now there are
four: Garner, Olson, Patterson and
ham and eggs"

There the mass-murder racket in
vestigation continued under Dis
trict Attorney O'Dwyer. 1t turned
out that the mass-murdering outfit
maintained branch offices in various
cities, on a truly national scale. Kid

SUPREME THE COURT:

Our top tribunal found guilty the
Ethyl Gasoline corporation, in an
antitrust case. Ethyl, despite her
attractive name, was accused of IL
censing jobbers in way contrary
to the public veal. At the bottom
of the case was an anti-knock COM
pound Also, according to the
court, the Federal Communications
commission may license new radio
stations freely, without bothering
about the veal of other radio sta
tons Also, Judge Gordon, of
the Washington federal district
court, declared that trade unions
were just as liable as anybody or
anything else, under the Sherman
antitrust law, including the serious
charge of criminal conspiracy. This
decision was good news to capital
lists the country over.

The house slapped through mere
billion dollar Labor-Security appro-
priatioh, voted down about quar-
ter of million for the ailing Ma
tional Labor Relations board, which
has been getting panning on many
fronts, and approved ST., 49, 900 for
the National Youth administration.
The Civilian Conservation corps,
one New Deal institution generally
approved by Tories and pinks alike,
stood in for $50 ,O00, 1000 worth of gov
eminent gold.
The President got back to his Of
flee desk after a lengthy and fevered
cold. He talked to Sumner Welles,
fresh in from Europe, and gave out
indications of pessimism as to any
early peace abroad. Opponents of
the President limited that he did not
want peace abroad, until the allies
won by knockout. Senator Van
denberg got off an epic: Lets swap
horses, and stay on this side OF the
stream" Senator Taft limited that
the New Deal was heading toward
a totalitarian state; statement
with which many calm political sci
entists, who neither like nor dislike
fascism, tend to agree.
But, despite Vandenberg and Taft
and others, Secretary Hull succeed
ed in beating the Pittman amend
ment to the Trade Agreements res
olution, which would restore to the
senate the power to ratify all future
reciprocal trade pacts. Vanden-
berg, at this point, declared that the
Roosevelt-Hull trading system would
cost Uncle Sam his shirt. 1t was
close senatorial vote: "A to Al.
The New Deal tide was promoted by
three anti-Roosevelt Democratic
senators, who evidently preferred
Hull, whom they consider One of
the Boys. It was lucky thing for
the White House, that it had not
succeeded in purging these three,
way back in pre-war 1888.

FACTS FOR FARMERS

Commenting on the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration work re-
Gently, r. o. Stelzer, Delaware exec
utive officer for the AAA, remark
ed: Results obtained under the
Farm Program point toward an in
crease in longtime improvements in
farming methods built on better ro-
tations and production of crops less
exhaustive on the soil. Farmers can
count on increased efficiency In crop
end livestock production as a re-
suit Of this soil Improvement Ex-
periences OF farmers have shown
that every dollar spent on improV-
ing the soil is returned many times
over during period Of years.
In an effort to restore tomato
production to the place 1t held in
Delaware agriculture some years
ago, workers Of the Delaware Agri-
cnltursl Experiment Station and Ey-
tension Service are cooperating with
the Libby, MeNeill and Libby Com
pany. Ia conducting test tomato
paintings on more than dozen
Kent county farms. Last week, more
than so Mid-Delaware tomato grow
ers met at the Frank w. Richard
son farm near Rising Sun, TO look
over the fertilization, pest control
and cultural work being carried on
there.

GOOD SOILS MEAN
GOOD FARM HOMES

Some outlay of cash is always
needed for keeping farm homes anG
farmstead buildings in repair. This
repair consists Of repainting, re.
building, the construction Of needed
additions and making essential al
terations.
Director George L. Schuster Of the
Delaware Agricultural Extension
Service, maintains that when soils
are neglected crop production costs
are so great that nothing remains
for farmstead Improvements after
crops are sold. For upwards of 100
years, many farms in Delaware have
produced crop after crop with little
thought to replenishment Of the
plant nutrients taken from the soil.
Today the situatio mis- almost reyers-
ed. Farmers are faced with the need
to spend 3 good bit of their profits
on soil improvement with q result
ing lack Of funds for proper main
tenance Of farm homes and build
ings
Before we can hope to restore
buildings to their former condition
or to make wanted repairs and alter
ations on farmstead buildings" 4"
points out Director Schuster, Della
ware farmers must restore the fer
tility Of their sells. Fortunately,
much of the present agricultural ex-
tension work in Delaware is con-
cerned with assisting farmers to
realize greater net incomes through
satisfactory crop production. Among
the ways we see working success
fully for profitably increasing crop
yields on many Delaware farm
are:
Growing and turning under
legumes and other green manure
crops,
Good soil preparation,
Planting good seed at the
right time,
Cultivating properly, and
Making wise use Of CONNER
cial fertilizers"
Besides increasing crop yields,
farmers can boost cash income by.
essentials like pasture, !
hay and silage on the farm rather
than buying them. The entire oper-
alton Of farms. depends on produc-
tive soils. The constant wiseIy-ex-
ecuted conservation Of soil resour-
ces determines available cash for
farm buildings and for a
generally bettered standard of liv-
ing for the farm family.

DUCK HUNTING
ZONES ASKED
REQUEST OF MONTANA SPORTS
MEN PASSED ON TO BIOLOG-
ICAL SURVEY
Continental Divide Would Be Bound
airy Set to Even Up Diversified Con-
ditions Described to Game Board;
One Day Upland Bird Season.

If a Montana fish and game
commission recommendation made
to the United States bureau of bio
logical survey is acted on favorably
Montana may be divided into two
migratory water fowl hunting
zones. At a meeting Of the game
commission the zone recommended
ton was made along with one
asking Montana's migratory water
fowl 45-day season begin Oct. Is.
The continental divide was desig-
mated as the dividing zone line.
The coming recommendations came
as result of requests from sports
mems groups in far-flung sections of
the state where. hunting is highly di-
versified through weather differences
One-Day Season
Chairman B. L. Price of Laurel an
nounced the commission had decided
on a one-day upland bird season for
Sept. /.
Price emphasized the fact Hungarian
partridges and Chinese pheasantS were
not included in the upland classifica-
ton adding the pheasant season will
be set at later date.
In one area, however, a three-day
blue grouse season, starting Sept. l
was declared. This was in Lincoln
county where climatic conditions are
not conducive to the growth of ordi-
nary uplanderS. There the bag limit
as for the regular one-day upland sea-
son-will be three birds. A possession
limit during the three-day period was
set at six birds.
The commission authorized State
Fish and Game Warden James A
Weaver to ask the bureau of biological
survey to hold its S6918495 appropri-
alton for Montana under the Pittman-
Robertson bill.
Price explained that unless the bu-
reau was advised to hold the funds
they would be lost to the states use
in go days. Actual participation in such
money, however, rests with the legis-
lature. Should Montana's lawmakers
pass a measure designating participa-
ton in the Pittman- Robertson wildlife
bill, then Montana would establish
game projects to be maintained by the
appropriation.
Drift Fence
The state game warden was also
authorized to purchase materials for
a siX-nile drift fence in the Sun river
country to keep elk from ranging in
privately-oWned lowlands. The pro-
posed fence will extend SIX miles north
from Smith creek along the national
forest boundary.

az %OST Ellis. GUILT
Of LOGS BY SOLDIERS
IN 1885, ~ ~ NJ

In the late sixties Fort Ellis was con-
structed near BOzeman and was for a
number of years one of the important
army posts of the northwest. It was
erected on the site of the camp made
by Captain Clark of the Lewis and
Clark expedition on July Ia, 1908. The
buildings of the fort were constructed
of logs. Fort Ellis was strategicaIIy To-
Gated so as to command the buffalo
hunting grounds of Indians who trekked
from Idaho and western Montana to
that section every fall for their annual
buffalo hunt. II also was n provision
ing point for hunters and trappers in
the Yellowstone region and for tourist
parties who visited Yellowstone park
during those early days. A number of
years ago, n bronze marker on a gran
lite slab was erected by Mount Royal
lite chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution to mark the site
of this historic place which had much
to do with the early settlement of
Montana, located as il was on the road
followed by pioneer freighters, emf
grants. stagelines and the pony express.
Fort Ellis, what remains of ii, is not
only one of the states historic spots,
but is located in one of the most beau
tiful sections of Montana, In the Gal
latin valley.
