' The Constitution's plan relates most to the past and j. resent than to the future, more to a condition than to a theory. In stead of pointing out new ways and asking the country to adopt them and walk therein," the Con stitution proposes to arraign the Republican party for crooked walking in old ways. It is an in- dicunent rather than a collection! of isms that our Atlanta contem-. porary, greatly aided by depor able events, proposed to put in the place usually occupied by the platform. "It is, indeed, 'a sickening story but it is just what might have been expected under the cir cumstances.

Of iourse, the ruling parly must be held primarily responsible or its 2.scals and their evil deeds, but is there no responsibility attach ing to the opposition that fails to oppose to a great party that wastes its strength and its oppor tunities in factional contentions? " We recollect that when - the postal frauds came to light our Atlanta contemporary counted on them for , the ousting of the Re publican party in 1904, but it is not apparent ihat they cost the Republican ticket Presidential, Congressional, or local a single vote in any State.

C, July 12.- The com mittee from the State Board of Agri culture to locate the truck test- farm met here to-day and decided to retain the farm at Wlllard. The committe issued the following statement, to the public, explanatory of its action' "The committee has given much time and thought to the selection of a site for the test farmIor truck' crops in the eastern part of the State. The importance of the undertaking and interest in it has demanded this. A large number of towns were visited and the tracts of land offered were carefully examined. V The Department of Agriculture has been conducting experimental work for a number of years, and as a result of its experience the commit tee was able to begin the seeking of a site with reasonably definite ideas as to the necessary requirements. "First, importance was attached to types of soil, which must be such as are ufced for producing large and im portant truck crops, particularly ones wfcich are grown on large areas and are more in the nature of staples. Not only should the types of soli be satisfactory, but the particular tract selected must have at least a consid erable area of uniform soil, having a good average depth of clay containing subsoil. This is absolutely essential for comparative results in experimen tal work. One line of tests will be with various kinds of truck crops. Two hundred and seventy-nine kinds of cabbage seed were' experimented with this season to determine their comparative yields and other qual ities. If the subsoil on which a test of this kind is made is at a very vary ing depth, the results will not show the comparative merits of the differ ent kinds. "In the case of fertilizer and other experiments the same is true. In any kind of experimental work,' even in obtaining new facts, it is necessary to compare the old with the new to de termine the relative merits of old or new facts or methods of crops. Uni forniland is essential for this. "The above are some of the mahi considerations leading the committee to place the first and greatest import ance on the type of land in making ita decision.
