(Continued From Page One) wet territory and claim their constitjuenta Mil not stand for as high a II(ccnae us fixed by the senate last week. I Senators Curtis. Proctor and Gavlt opposed the proposition and urged that the compromise of $700 and $500 k reached last week be recognized as i binding. They insisted it had been reached after careful consideration and represented a compromise in which all parties and sections of the fctate tiHd Joined. ' .They Insisted that the people of the state wanted a restrictive and regulative measure that was virile and that in its making there must be a middle ground, and everyone must yield something. The point was also made that the people of the state wanted, above nil else, that the legislature take the whole iiiestlo out of politics by fixilng all restriction and regulations Instead of throwing It bark upon them to settle in their city and local clec'tions. Oppose Principle of High License. Their pleas fell upon deaf ears. .Senator Itoyse, of Terre Haute, who in not In favor of any restriction worthy of the name, repudiated the comi promise, denounced it as vicious and .abortive of the puropse for which it was purported to be made namely to 'treatrlct. He said $700 license fee was !& revenue raising; measure, instead of : restrictive measure. He warned the laenate If this fee stood the saloons (would get Into politics fore than ever Sn order to rut the fee down. 4f Senator Heal delivered a philippic gainst high license and added to the remarks of his collogue that a $700 'license was so high that It invited opposition from the saloons and would destroy any effect the measure might .otherwise have as a regulative measure that would take the saloons out of jpolltlcs. Senator Fleming again riddled the Jlgh license feature, showing that it placed an extra tax upon the saloons of over two and a half million dollars, 'after they had already been tied down by tho most stringent restrictions ever niado In Indiana. He said the high license feature was merely an invitation to the saloon keeper to get Into politics. Curtis Delivers Ultimatum. Then came tho first ultimatum. Senator Curtis delivered It. Ho said ho tenolaIly favored a $1,000 license and his constituency favored It, but that In the Interest of compromise he had consented to the $700 and $500 license and had thought the matter settled. He gave warning, however, that If the senate went back on Its agreement and reopened the question he would then take the bit in his teeth and assist Senator Proctor in bis' fight for a flat $1,000 license. Senator Gavlt, who claims to repreent more wet territory than any other member of the senate, took up the cudgel In defense of the $700 and $500 license upon the ground that It was a compromise, that while it might not be satisfactory to him, yet It represented tho combined opinion of the enate and he whs willing to abide by 1t. He strenuously objected to Stotenberg's proposition to throw the burden of fixing tho license upon the city 'councils upon the ground that it would make the saloon question the main issue In every city campaign. Oavit's was the last speech of the day as it was nearly six o'clock when Je concluded and a motion to adjourn topped proceedings. The further consideration of the bill will come up Thursday under the head of unfinished business and there Is no telling how Jong it may be dragged out. 1 Just what you have been waiting: for Blue Gills, Friday at the Waldorf.

He said that Dehonty was using his power in an autocratic manner, that he was using the department of the state board of accounts as a medium to blackmail public officials and others of Indiana, and that in this he was aided by the Indianapolis News.

Be that as it may. after a running fight In which it was cut and thrust and parry, in which blood was drawn and both combatants pinked, the Wells bill was finally referred back to the committee for further consideration. This action was taken after Cra vens had carried his amendment to make the state board of accounts a one-man omce ny dismissing doio deputy-examiners, whom he accused of insubordination and scandal bearing. All in all It was the loveliest row the legislature has staged up to yet. and enough dragon's teeth were sown to raise a record breaking crop of trouble. The first dash out of the box, when the Wells' bill came up for consideration under special order of business was a motion by Representative Wise to recommit it to the committee. He gave as his reason the fact that the house bad just received a senate bill by Yarling, dealing with the state board of accounts, and with this bill before the committee it could take Wells' bill and out of the two report a Dill tnat couiu oe consioereu wnn saving of much time. This argument made scant appeal to the house for by a vote of 72 to 23 It decided to wade right into the bloody fight and have It over. To Equalize Authority. Representative Wells started off Thursday with an amendment which would make the state board of ac counts what it purports to be and what the people believe it is, a bipartisan board in which the three members have equal voice and salary. As it now is Dehority has complete charge, ruling like a czar over both of the chiefs with him. and drawing more salary than either.

A careful preparation of the ground before planting the seed was declared by Mr. Clore to be of vital importance. protein or carbohydrates. It should be succelent, and above all, economical. A great help in the feeding problem in Indiana is the use of silage. Talk on Horticulture. On Thursday morning in the Horticultural section. Prof. Richards spoke j on "Small Fruits and Garden Crops." j He said the vast importance of the small crop is not realized by the average farmer of today. With the minimum of care they will yield enormous crops of fruit not only for immediate consumption but for canning There are numerous fruits classed under the head of small fruits but the main ones are the blackberry, red raspberry, black raspberry, currant, gooseberry, and the strawberry. Every farm garden should boast of at least three plants of each of the above mentioned fruits. The culture- of these fruits is quite similar and they pranged that every four years the entire garden will have been in clover. Smaller amounts of the general garden crops should be planted and a larger variety attempted. Most farmers only grow such vegetables as lettuce, radishes, tomatoes, cabbage, when they might also be growing such newer and less used crops as cauliflower, cress, kohl rabi, salsify or okra. The great trouble with our Am erican gardeners is that they are afraid to depart from the vegetables that our fathers grew, he said. With a little more care to the garden the farm family could be fed much cheaper and at the same time receive a far greater variety of foods. Spend an hour a day in the garden and note

how the grocer bills will decrease and .j shortening are usually added. The lithe quality of the foods increase, he quids are usually, milk, water, or milk

Now obviously it is impossible to cover ihe ground in a. couple of lectures; but it is possible to point out some of the sources of reliable information. The experiment station and the United States department of Agriculture publish bulletins from time to time and these are good as far as they go; but I want to urge each of you to get ar.d study at least one good book on soil fertility such as "The1 Fertility of the Laud" by Roberts or ""Fi rst Principles of Soil Fertility" by Vivian; or some of the other soil fertility books which you can get through your local book store or through the Agricultural extension department of the experiment station.

"in what way can we mofct cror.omically correct existing deficiencies and i prevent the occurrence of others?" After discussing the requirements j of crops and the deficiencies of the soil the speaker closed with this statement: "Cropping the land necessarily uses up more or less plant food and organic matter, thus decreasing the fertility. Heretofore farmers have been drawing on the supplies that slowly accumulated during the centuries that the land lay idle, but this virgin fertility is about exhausted and we are rapidly approaching the time when we must do something to increase the rate of loss or the land will cease to raise profitable crops. The pioneer type of agriculture is a thing of the past, and it is up to the present generation of farmers to develop u system that will permanently maintain the fertility of the soil to take its place."

Mr. Otis Crane talked on "Hatching and Rearing Chicks," on Thursday morning in the domestic science sec- i t ion. He said. " nature supplies the i joung plant and animal with food and: strength to live until it can have time ; and a chance to get the necessary j nourishment. The yolk of an egg is j ttored up in the body of the chick j to supply its wants until it is able to leave the nest and search for food, j ;TMs supply is sufficient for 3tJ hours.; At the end of this time he recommend-1 !

EASTERN LANDS ARE DRAWING FARMERS Migration from West to East Very Great An Odd Condition. Albany, N. Y., Feb. 9. A widespread and substantial migratory movement from the west to the unoccupied and unused farms of New York state has been in progress for some time, and it. has now reached a far away as Minnesota, Nebraska, Al berta, Saskatchewan, and the state of Washington. In a few years the so-called abanbe a thing of the past, and millions of dollars' worth of produce will be iell. "thing. This movement back to the old in many ways, cniei oi wuicu, n seems !to Maj. R. R. Riddell, head of the i bureau of farm statistics of the New York department of agriculture, is its empathetic contradiction of the long prevailing opinion that agricultural opportunities lie only in the west. West Just Learning About East. Things had got to such a state, said Maj. Riddell, in explaining how large had become the eastward migration, that the possibilities of the west were much better known in the east than the possibilities of our home lands were known to ourselves. Fertility of the soil being equal, the forms of New York have tremendous i advantages. The best markets of the world are almost within rifle shot of the farms; the state is spending millions upon its roads, the school system is surpassed nowhere, and more money return is obtained with less effort. . A case in point, which is typical of hundreds that have come under the notice of Maj. Riddell, is that of a man named Douglas, who gave up his farm in Chenango county nearly thirty years ago to settle in western Nebraska. Two months ago he sold his farm there, for half what he received bought a farm of equal size in NewYork. He maintains he will get a better income because of his proximity to markets. Advance agents of fifty Swedish families, all of whom settled near one another in Nebraska many years ago, will soon be at work on as many unused or unoccupied farms. These people have sold their Nebraska lands lor J,J an atre ana "ougnt tarms in New York at prices ranging from $5 to $20 an acre. No Really "Abandoned" Farms.

"There is a social scourge more blighting and more destructive of family life than Mormonism. it is the fearfully increasing number of divorce mills throughout the Unlteti states These mills, like the mills of the gods are slowly, but surely grinding to powder the domestic" altars of the na1 lion. Husband and wife are separated on the most flimsy pretexts. And as if the different states of the Union were not sufficiently accommodatingin thi respect, one state has the un-. uneviable distinction of garnting a bill of divorce for the mere asking of it on the sole condition of a brief sojourn within her borders. j "A lady, prominent in society life, once said to me in Newport: 'I do not recognize any law, human or divine, that can deprive a husband or wife of the right to separate and to enter fresh espousals when they do not live in harmony together.'

There are. no rights against the law of God.' TOWER HILL.' " A Notad London Spot, th Seen ef Many Famous Occurrences.

" William Tenn was born on this hill In a, bouse close to London wall. Forty-four years later that is, in A. D.
