It made the (light from Cape Verde islands to Fernando Noronha off the coast of Brazil In 12 hours and 15 minutes. I'efyinj superstition, 13 persons were aboard the PO-X. It was announced by the State de partment in Washington that Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh will start before lone on a pleasure cruise of the Orient in their Lockheed plane, fiying to .la pan and China via the North Pacific and Uussla. They probably will follow the route taken by the army flyers In 1024, going to Siberia by way of the Aleutian Islands.

CC. TEA (ICE, one ?of the original members of the feder al farm board and Its vice chairman, has re signed. having served one more year than he at first intended. In his letter to Presi dent Hoover tender ing his resignation Mr Teague declared the board had fully r* f t ' Justified Itself and its Teague cost to the taxpayers. He said that without its advice and revolving fund many farmers* co-operatives would have gone under; and he warmly de feuded the emergency operations of the hoard ?n >; ibilizing wbent ?md cotton. "There are two di>:inct methods of stabilizing ? ir he pointed out. "Probably the one that has been ern pt isi/ed most in puMiejty has been the stabilization operations on wheat and cotton, which were entirety em??r gency operations undertaken to meet eniergeney conditions and which I be lieve are entirely justified and whieh will have resulted in benefit*; to agrl ?

T> A litical - financial troubles wore ap proaching a climax durinsr the week with the state legislature preparing to vote on the question of Im peaching t iie gover nor, Henry R. Mor ton. The situation in Nashville was tense. Though the foes of the executive were ENNESSEE'S po Gov. Horton apparently in the majority, Horton seemed undaunted. Most of the eight articles of Im peachment reported to the legislature by a committee relate to a main charge of conspiracy, alleging plots between the governor and Col. Luke Lea and Rogers Caldwell, two bank ers who are now under indictment as a result of '.he bank failures of last November. Congressman Ed Crump, the Memphis political boss, was conducting the tight against tne governor, though he kept himself In the background. The resignation of Senator Scott Fitzhugh. one of the Crump faction, from the speakership, and the election of Senator A. B. Jiroadbent of Clarksville to fill his place took much of the thunder away from the defense, for Senator Broad bent is an independent, an anti-Crump man. and he will be the next gov ernor if Mr. Horton is forced out.

The troubie cen ters in the Catholic Action clubs. Mussolini decreed the disbanding of all youth organizations connected with Catholic Action because of al leged political propaganda and closed , the clubs and playgrounds. The pope protested against this, both as head of the Vatican City and as head of the church. He made effective Ids disap proval by withdrawing his personal representative from the Padua cele brations, canceling the diocesan eu charistic congress in Rome, prohibiting | church processions and placine the Catholic Action societies under charge of the bishops. Mussolini gave out j a statement sayins; there was nothing temporary about his acts and that the clubs were permanently closed. Wednesday the directory of the Fas cist party ordered the leaders of all groups to be ready to defend Fas cism against its foes "under whatever banner." and charged that sotne sec tions of the Catholic Action society had been "openly and surreptitiously** hostile to Fascism. 1M1.

Soil Treatments Help Crops on Worn Out Land Sw.-et clover ??n land medium to low n tertiliiv will not usually grow with ut c\p. '.sive soil treatments. lied v\er ?*n such soils will grow only fairly w? i. and if the land is both . or and sour, costly treatments are -u.i!!y necessary for successful pr?? : !ion. Whet 3mt the farmer should _o to the ex;>i !jse ??f growing red or ?>woet clover, or siioahl use Korean lespedc/a as :? v,j?stltute. can l>e d"' ermined only after considering the ? onditlons of the individual ease. Korean le-r . U-za can be grown to ad \antage on many soils where produc tion of the clovers Is diflirult or Im nracticable. It may be sown in small _ra;n crops, in grass. clover mixtures f.>r temporary or permanent pasture, or on Idle and waste land not now affording any profits and yearly be coming less valuable. Bees Get Pollen From Different Forest Trees Many forest trees are as valuable to ft keepers for their pollen as for the nectar of their flowers. Without po| ?n. for which no satisfactory subsil :ute has been found, bees will fail to raise new brooch Pollen furnishes meaty, nitrogenous elements In the diet af the larvae. The barely notice :?l?le flowers of many trees are often rlrh in pollen, as well as in nectar. Willows, u::ip!es. Mack locusts, tulip I ?r yellow poplar trees, tupelos, bass woods. sour sums, and wild plums are important sources of both pollen and nectar. Kims and aspens are also pol 1 i?r'u producers, although not considered to be nectar plants The presence of certain hardwood pollen-bearing forest ??-Pes thus Incomes an Important con sideration In the choice of sites for apiaries. Massachusetts Favors Two Feeding Mixtures The Massachusetts station makes ;he following recommendations for poultry feed mixtures. Much of course will depend upon local conditions such as the price and availability of the in gredients. The layinc mash is: 200 lbs. corn meal. H*> lbs. wheat bran. 100 lbs. . middlings. 100 lbs. ground oats. 50 'bg. meat scraps, 25 lbs. fish meal. 25 ibs. alfalfa leaf meal. 25 lbs. dried skimmilk. and 5 lbs. salt. Scratch feed : 500 Ibs. yellow corn. 250 lbs. wheat, 150 lbs. barley, and 100 lbs. oats. Lower Fencing: Cost With Large Fields Irregular Enclosures Have Too Many Corners. Fencing small irregular fields It an expensive operation, according j0 j ^ Falconer, chairman of the department of rural economics at the Ohio Stale university, who finds ihat fur most , kinds of general farming the fields should he at least 40 roils Ion::. Rectangular fields and small flehie require more fencing per acre than square or large fields. With nells of the same shape, he states, the larger th?* field, the fewer rods o[ fence *o the acre are required to enclose it, and a proportionally smaller area of tillable land is occupied by fences n square field of oue acre would require .*??? rods of fence: one of -0 acres. U S rods of fence per acre: while ii square !i id of 40 acres could he fenced with < ight rods of fence per acre. If the width of land occupied by fences in the one acre and 40-acre field were uniform, the amount of waste . :id due to femes would he more than vix times as much in the one-sere field ; 1 s in the 4??-arre field. Falconer says. IA square field of ten acres requires 100 rods of fence; a rectangular r.>-ld ? f ten acres. l?y 5*'? rods. requires 17?? rods of fence: and si rectangular field --*1 hy so rods requires 2<H) r?"is of fence. If the fields are not to he fenced this disadvantage of the rec tangular field need not he considered. Irregular fields are especially w-wkuI of fencing and land, and uneconomical to operate. They have too many cor ners. too many short rows, nnd too many corner posts. Inoculate Lepume Seed by Making Them Sticky Dry materials u<ed on lesrttine seed several week before planting the s?*ed have not given satisfactory results compared to Jelly or moist applica tions. according to work done at Pur due university and hy the Fnited States Department of Asriculture and reported recently hy K. K. Itecson, Purdue university. Soil from well iuoctilated fields can he used satisfactorily but the only way to tell how well the field is inoc ulated is to observe this fact when the It* mi me is growing in the field. Stimll seeded legumes should he n::ide stirk\ hy use of a solution of ot;c pnrt sugar to two parts water. Beeson rec ommends. Less than a pint of the sweetened solution will treat a bushel of seed. Afier the solution is applied 1 he seed should he mixed and have the dirt applied. If the seed is not left moist it can he sown or stored. Soybean seed should not he mois tened hut should he made slightly damn, as much moisture causes the seed coat to slip and clog the drill. All land that has not been inoculat ed before should have seed inoculated j this year, Bceson suggests. Weedy Clover Seed Not Popular on Any Farm Buckhorti, dork and pigweed seeds ? weed seeds commonly contaminat ing clover seed ? produce many times more seed fo- each seed sown than the clover seed, making it vitally Im portant that none hut scrupulously clean clover seed he sown, says Sam uel M. Jordan, weed aud seed special ist of the Missouri state hoard "f agriculture. For eac h clover seed sown one may expect to harvest 30 clover seeds: for each seed of I > uck horn, 2.400 seeds ??f Its kind; for each seed of dock. SO.UJO dock seeds: and, for each pigweed seed. 1 .000.000 weed seeds of this kind. From the foregoing facts. It is easy to see, Mr. Jordan says, that It Is hot ter to sow no clover seed at all than to sow a lot of weed seed with it. Hack the apple barrel frequently while it is heing tilled. To be effective against quack grass, cultivation must he thorough, fre quent. persistent, and property timed. ? ? ? Based on past experience, proflr In growing cucumbers depends primarily on the control of insect and disease pests. ? ? ? One hour out of every ten that the tractor is used should be devoted to keeping the machine in good condi tion. ? ? ? Grape arbors can be used to pood advantage in making the farm honia grounds attractive. Try to give some thought to the location of these. ? ? ? Fruit should be thinned out If the usual June drop has left more fruit on the trees than will mature prop erly. Thinning will improve tb# quality of the remaining fruit.
