By J. J. BARTON
Soy beans are among the principal
leguminous crops which are now recog
nized as bo Important an element in
good farming. They are more or leu
growu over much of the west and
south. Because the soy bean grows
more erect than the cow pea in some
regions and Is quite commonly bar
vested with a self binder, which keeps
BOY BKAN riiAHT,
It more free from dirt, it Is preferred
by many farmers to the latter. As the
. soy bean Is tender, It is not usually
planted till settled weather, the last of
May or first of June; some eastern
Kansas farmers say any time before
July as a profitable crop after wheat or
oats.
. The soy bean is valuable for green
manuring and for bay and is one of the
best of the legumes for the silo. The
beans, fed either In the straw or when
thrashed, are good food for all kinds
of animals, keeping them in thrifty
condition and with glossy coats. In
some localities the entire plant la har
vested in the field by bogs and cows
eating it to the ground.
. The crop is cultivated like corn, the
Beed being sown in drills at the rate of
one-half to one bushel per acre.
It to claimed that the yield of crop
of all kinds Is Increased where they
follow soy beans, wheat having shown
In large fields an increase of five bush
els per acre when following soy beans
over that grown on adjoining land that
bad not been In beans. This Increase
was shown where soy beans bearing
no tubercles were grown.
When the nitrogen gathering bac
teria that live In tubercles growing
upon the roots are present they take
nitrogen from the air and combine It
with other elements Into compounds
suitable for plant food. To Introduce
these bacteria Into toll from which
they are absent, soil la taken from a
field where tubercles are abundant on
tbe roots of the plants and Is drilled In
with the seed. . : - :

Today I am informed that about tba

that the extreme boundary of the prof

The American Lover
And the English Lover
By MRS. FRANK LESLIE
HE British lover and
a par, although the Englishman, as a general thing,
assumes aa soon as he is engaged a certain air of au
thority nd PROPRIETORSHIP which the Ameri
can never' dreams of at any period of his career as a
lover or EVEN AS A HUSBAND.
I feel sure that in the English marriage service the word "obey"
is spelled with a big "O," for it seems the principal point of the bride's
new duties, and the fiancee to cheerfully ready to begin to practice
her obligations. If she tries to rebel, her mother and friends, per
haps her betrothed himself, call her to account witk the ' threat
that if she doesn't take care SHE WILL LOSE HER OP
PORTUNITY, Say that to an- American girl, and what walls or roofs would con
tain her scorn I She would return that young man's rings and let
ters before the hour was out and not know him the next time she met
him. But with the English girl a different heredity and a different
training have produced an entirely different temperament She also
has insensibly gathered frc& the mutual demeanor of her father and
mother the standard of matrimonial manners and obligations. She
perceives that her mother's first duty is to def erf in all things to her.
father; to provide for his physical comfort at the expense perhaps
of her own ; TO COAX, CAJOLE, PERSUADE OR DECEIVE
TTTlf into consenting to an' entertainment, an expedition, a new gown
or a new visitor. The father is a little Jupiter, and the mother is an
"ox eyed Juno" whose principal virtue is amiable submission, and
whose principal study is how to circumvent the Thunderer.,
Oi course the girl accepts her father as the highest And noblest
type of husband and her mother as the INEVITABLE type of wife,
and her 'character molds itself insensibly to these limitations and
upon these lines. She becomes another Attentive, submissive, furtive
wife like her mother, the charming English wife of an Englishman.
But make the marriage international, and the domestic machine
declines to run in any such time honored ruts. A broad gauge engine
will not, cannot, adapt itself to a narrow gauge road, and some fearful
jolting, with very likely A CATASTROPHE AT THE END, will
be the result of trying to make it

Japanese Successes Furnislx No

SEE no new lesson from torpedo boati in the present

The essence of A torpedo boat Ul AtUck by surprise, to get in unob
served, launch a torpedo and get AWAy. If yon simply remain quiet
and 'trust in an obatrnction which yon put around yon, an Active,
rigorous assailant Is bound to find a soft place In it
. I do not regard the submarine a progress. In my mind it is a
somewhat HANDICAPPED TORPEDO BOAT. As I said, a tor
pedo boat depends on suddenness, and it also depends' on invisibility,
by which suddenness of attack is aided. If it ean leave its base, reach
its objective, deliver its attack and get nearly back to it base before
daylight it has a very great prospect of escaping with impunity. To
do this it is obvious that IT MUST HAV LUUU
SPEED. The submarine become, invisible only
when near the object of attack. It is then more
completely invisible than the ordinary torpedo boat,
but it has to pay what I regard m the very high
price of relatively extreme slowness in movement
I don't think a, submarine has been constructed, of
ia Ukelrto be. that ean cover mora than nine or ten
knots per boor. Therefore the
RARY rNTISTBLLITY is neutralied by lack of speed. -

. Wabhinoton, D. C, June 23, 1904.
The summer solstice finds more
political activity at tbe nation's
capital than exisU in average years.
Even the Chicago convention ha
not wholly succeeded in transferring
partisan discussion. . The pro
nounced opposition of great groups
business Republicans in New
York and Philadelphia to another
presidential term for Roosevelt is
reflected in our Board of Trade.
Men who supported Roosevelt for
Vice Presideu t and have watched
the evolution of some of bis brazen
audacitits say to oneanothsr "What
of the future ? What is Ronsevek
likely tb do if be gets a tree tether
four years ?" They feel sure that
he has courage and personal honesty,
but they think him capable of mon
umental indiscretions.
The disrepute into which the
Vice-Presidency teems to have full-
. ' At
en la a current surprise. Always
till now it has been regarded as a
very lofty and honorable office,
worthy of any mail's ambition. Of
those who have been elected Vice-
President of the United States, one-
third have been promoted to the
Presidency, either by death or popu
lar choice, John Adams, Thomas
Jefferson, and Martin Van Buren
were thus transferred by the people's
vole. " Roosevelt's ' ' contemptuous
kick four years ago and Cannon's
current sneers-have treated the office
aa if it were a degradation ; but the
Vice-President is the' President's
deputy and the director of the Sen
ate's business at all times, 'and he
has A salary of 18,000 a year, a con
siderably larger than either Roose
velt or Cannon ever bad in their
lives prior to the former's election
in 1900. '
General Palmer, Public Printer,
has this week perpetrated a gross
outrage against the people of -the
United States, by printing under
date of Monday, June 20, an edi
tion of the Congressional Record
containiug sixty psges of Republi
can campaign literature. This pub
lication two months after the ad
journment of Congress Is a wanton
violation of law. Towards tbe end
of the session concurrent protests
were made against giving leave to
print in the Record speeches not de
livered on the floor, and both parties
agreed to put a summary end to it
and to grant no more permission to
"extend remarks in the Record."
It now seems that the bargain was
made by tbe Republicans in a Pick
wickian sense only but was held to
be binding on the Democrats. Is
it thought that no treachery can bo
so dastardly as not to be justified if
thereby Mr. Roorevelt ia elected 7
Are Messrs. Payne,' Dalzell, Gros-
ve or, Hemenway parties to this in
iquity or does Mr. Palmer hope to
read in it his title clear for another
four years? Explatations are In
order. Such a publication Is a gross
fraud upon the people because it en
titles this sixty pages of Republican
literature to be sent free under frank
to all parts of the United Stales.
Secretary of the Treasury 8haw
has left bis office to take care of it
self while be does missionary work
In the Wast. He may not make
many Republican votes, however,
if tbe speech is a fair simple which
he made to An immense crowd in
the Chicago auditorium on Tuesday
evening. He indulged in the usual
apotheosis of a high tariff and rep
resented that one of ita glories waa
that it enabled American manufac
torers to sell their products in En-
rope at a price lower than they
could Afford to sell them for to our
own rjeonle I He did not hesitate
to specifically slate that "Four mil
lion dollars worth of mercbandiae.
the product of American factories,
U annnallr sold cheaper abroad
than in the home market" It
not reported that Serretary Shaw
blushed when be made this
nouitcecneDL or that be ever stam
mend. On tbe contrary, he waiv
ed bis arms proudly and blurted
out if be thought it something to be
proud of and something which tbe
American consumers would be glad
to bear. He said if A remedy was
demanded it should be found not In
a redaction of the tariff, but in a re
peal of tbe patent laws I .
Root's speech in calling the Chi
cago cooveotioo to order was a
euriosity ia IU way. . He pathetical
ly aaked the country to keep the
republican party cootinoaJly in
power f nd one of his pleas was that
if this was done, independence would
be granted to the Filipinos f lie
did Di sy wbeo ; but ha aaiJ
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAj
"Some time, Ultimately, . By and
bye." There is something astonish
ing about this, considered in the
light of Mr. McKinley's description
of the Filipinos ns "some eighty
wild tribes," and Roosevelt's com
paring them to Sioux and Apaches.
For some yeais now we have held
the Filipinos down with a mailed
hand ; we have given them no hope
of national liberty ; so have confer
red upon .them spelling-books and
the water cure ; in other wcrds, we
have treated them as helots and
subject races are always treated by
their subjugators. Now here comes
Root with the ghost of a promise
stalking like an aparition across the
Republican stage. : ' And Secretary
Taft, less than a week ago, announo
ed in a speech to the Filipinos tbem
selves that when a re-election would
absolve the President from the
pledges of his predecessor, the inde
pendence of the Philippine Islands
would be forthcoming. Aud now
Root t Is Saul also among the
prophets ?
The invitation to Paul Morton to
become Secretary of tho Navy is the
sensation of the week. - He has been
a Democrat all his life till within
tbe last three or four months, being
a son of that Sterling Morton who
was Cleveland's Secretary ; of Agri
culture. For the President of tbe
United 8tates to 'turn suddenly
around at a dinner table and offer
Paul a Cabinet portfolio without
consulting anybody with as much
insouciance as if he were , merely
passing the salt, is ; certainly
dramatic or comic performance.
The plea of delegate Reyburn in
the Chicago convention for a restor
ation of self-government to this city
bes been refused, and we shall still
struggle along under our trium
virate. It may be wiser to bear tbe
oppressions wnicn we sutler wan
fly to other kinds of tyranny which
we know not of but concerning
which we can fling a pretty accurate
guess.

give moral weight to the judgment,
of the court. This is a singular
prerequisite to the idea efficiency of

advance immorality and crime than
be does to foster morality and obedi
