Nature and man are both contributors to the aging of soils, says Norton, and man Is the greater offender as he has removed the protective covering of sod and allowed the rains to gully the land. Removing crops continually from the land has depleted the fertility and moisture holding capacity. Good management of soils prevents their aging and as In man it preserves yonth.

Msalf Editorial ASaodatlbK Questions have been asked of late as to what mysterious force holds a handful of Senators and Representatives in Washington when the majority of their fellows were glad to abandon their official duties on March 4. The motives that inspire this apparent devotion to the public service are easily discernible. No other city or town affords the opportunity for personal glorification and political notoriety at so little cost to themselves. Even the lame ducks, relegated to a political limbo, are hang, in? around the scene of past triumphs hopeful that an appointive office will fall to their lot. This week the resourceful Senator Borah of Idaho has succeeded in attracting attention in the press on domestic and foreign affairs. Senator Brookhart of Iowa has seized on a controversy over government workers' salaries that gives him much needed publicity. Senator Moses of New Hampshire has stood up outside the meeting house and testified as to his own oracular power in predicting voting trends in 1932. The Democratic Senators have been quiet lately letting their hired man, Mr. Jouett Shouse of the national committee, ak his prepared pieces for the public. It will be their turn tomorrow. Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, who possesses comparable talents of sarcasm like Moses for the majority party, is too much of a golf enthusiast to heed political matters. The versatile Southern Senator is in town running high in honors in local golf tournaments. When you consider that the President of the United States holds only two press conferences each week and Senator Borah finds it necessary to have himself interviewed daily on current matters, you will have a rough idea of the com|>etition for favorable propaganda. Obviously the dramatic staging of Borah brings him out only a pcxjr second. In the House the candidates for the Speakership are fighting for front page space to keep their personalities before the public. It will be observed that the theme song of these publicity-seekers in calculated to impress the public with their ability as leaders. They take pride in parading their opinions and achievements, mostly designed for public enlightenment or deception. It is the only political racket paying good dividends to participants. Something dearer to the heart of every citizen than prohibition or religious differences is the weekly pay envelope. On its existence or shrinkage in size will hang the fate of political parties no matter what other issues are provided during the forthcoming season. Notwithstanding the fact that wages are primarily economic subjects, it will be recalled that j many Presidential campaigns have been waged with such islogans as "Every man a job" and "The full dinner pail" which clearly identifies the worker with politics. j At present the Hoover Administra-! tion is striving desperately to influence business men to maintain wage levels. The President and his Cabinet have frowned on advancing salaries j of government employees despite j Congressional generosity. To advance j wages of Federal workers whose pay j is derived from taxes imposed on private workers would be highly inconsistent in view of unemployment j and depression elsewhere. Yet, the "master-minds" of politics persist in J trotting out selected issues knowing I full well that changes must be made a year hence. In all the talk of depression there can be no escape from figures compiled this week by the Bureau of Public Roads revealing an increase Of three and one-half per cent in the consumption of gasoline in 1930. The revenue from this source totaled 495 million dollars, an increase of nearly fifteen per cent over 1929. Officials attribute the gain in tax revenues as due in part to increased use of commercial vehicles and passenger vehicles. Ohio with a four cent a gallon tax topped the list of states with tax receipts in excess of 37 million. The consumption was higher in New York and California, but the tax rate was lower than in Ohio. Yet, reports from various states indicate that other sources -of revenue are sought to meet the mounting costs of state and municipal government. Most of the legislatures sidestepped the tax problem with ineffectual schemes this year. Opinion is current that the situation is growing more serious and that the taxpayer in self-defense must take a more intimate interest ip governmental affairs. Would Eliminate. Black Cuirants Cultivated Plants Threaten vj ^ to Destroy White- Pine Forests. (Pr«»»r*d by the United States Department of Agriculture.)--WNU Service. Because of the relatively small value of cultivated black currants In this country and the role of these plants In the spread of white-pine blister rust, a disease which threatens to destroy our white-pine forests, United States Department of Agriculture recom mends that farmers and nurserymen and the public generally discontinue growing these currants In regions where white pines grow. Carriers of Blister Rust In Its light to save the white-pine forests of the country, the department recognizes other varieties of currants and gooseberries as potential carriers of the blister rust disease, but the cultivated black currant, sometimes known as the English black currant, is by far the most susceptible to the rust. This variety is responsible for spread of the disease over long distances, department specialists declare. Compared to cultivated black currants, other species of currants and gooseberries are relatively resistant to blister rust, the department says However, in the course of a season the disease may spread from the original black currant center, to any type of currant or gooseberry. This Is caused by successive cycles of tts summer stage of the rust. How Disease Is 8prsad. Farmers' Bulletin 1398-F, "Currants and Gooseberries: Their Culture and Relation to White Pine Blister Rust," a publication Just Issued by the department In revised form, tells how to grow these plants and explains how they spread the rust disease. In some sections currants and gooseberries are commercial crops, and the department does not wish to interfere with this industry any more than Is necessary to protect the white-pine forests, the bulletin says. So great is the danger from cultivated black currants, however, that the department Is asking state authorities, nurserymen, and farmers to help eliminate this plant entirely in the Pacific, Rocky mountain, Atlantic, Appalachian, Ohio valley, upper Mississippi valley, and Lakes states. Copies of Farmers' Bulletin 1398-F may be obtained free from the Office of Information, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Miss M.

Early New York New Amsterdam was renamed New Tork and the state government reorganized in 1665, after possession had been taken from the Dutch by the British in 1664. The schout, burgomasters and schepens were replaced with a sheriff and alderman and mayor. The actual charter of New York city upon which most of Its civic rights were based was granted April 22, 1086. Prune Young Trees for More Profitable Yields Although butchering young apple trees with the pruning shpars Is n poor practice, the training of permanent trees so that they will develop Into vigorous, strong trees capsible of carrying their crops is an essential part of profitable orchard management, declares F. H. Reach, extension specialist In horticulture ut Ohio State university. While the unpruned young tree will grow more rapidly, have the greatest size for its age, and come Into bearing earlier than heavily pruned tr«<»s, he says. It does not follow that tftyn- Ing the trees with the help of The pruning shears should be overlooked. Light pruning that aids In developing the modined leader type of tree and that prevents splitting from weak crotches is highly desirable. The modified leader type of -tree. Beach points out, is secured by allowing one central branch to eontinuc through the lower part of the tree, other branches from which the scaffold branches may be developed will grow from the central branches at different heights and positions. In this way it is fairly easy to prevent crowded heads and weak crotches. It Is best, he states, to allow the lowest limb to grow on the southwest side of the tree so as to prevent si<nscald injury., Relatively light pruning may also be given this aide of the tree.
