Editor, Tribune: The experience of Chester Johnson would seem to prove that few if any contests are fair and impartial. Just recently we read an article on the subject, and the writer declared that the winners of the big prizes were Picked before the contests started. Every Sunday evening Major Bowes declares that it is the votes of the radio audience that decide the winners of his contest. If, as Mr. Johnson states, the number of votes received has nothing to do with the amateurs being placed in the various units touring the country, we feel that ® rank injustice is being done both to the contestants themselves and those who have supplied the neces- sary money to send them to New York, From all accounts it would seem that Mr. Johnson, as the representa- tive of his home city, received a rath- er cool reception, and we also wish to comment on the fact that nothing whatever was said during the broad- cast about our new state capitol.

Miss Jeanne Paris, worthy adviser, named several com- mittees to make plans for the func- chairmen and past department presi- dents residing in the various districts are expected to attend the meeting within their territory. An interesting feature of the pro- gram at each place will be the annual quartette and trio contests, the win- ners to compete at the department convention at Jamestown in July. The president's and national membership citations will be awarded to the win- ning units, ition will be given to the district winners of the Ameri- canism essay contests now being con- ducted in many schools throughout the state. The North Dakota department now has enrolled 6500 members. This is 98 per cent of the 1935 membership and 96 per cent of the quota required JOBLESS STILL HOLD ASSEMBLY CHAMBER Threaten to Remain Encamped Until ‘Sissy Legislature’ Convenes The Thursday Musical club named Mmes.

It may—or may not—have been fear of a reaction adverse to the product which Major Bowes is ad- vertising via the ether. At any tate Chester's recital of his ex- Periences indicates that his re- ception was admittedly cool.

One reason is that it is too easy to “fix” the voting. In one case of record, a friend of Chester Johnson called the tele- phone office and voted as often as he could make a connection. All votes were, of course, cast for Chester. If it could happen here it could and would happen else- where. Another factor is that the troupes make personal appear- ‘ances and the public has oppor- tunity to react to more than what they say or what they play. Hence Major Bowes’ rather ob- vious preference for dancers. They help to balance his vaude- ville programs. sion which had been called for Fri- day to deal with the problem. No reason was given. The chamber, which had been oc- cupied by the unemployed persons since Tuesday except for a brief period Thursday when they moved to the senate, again was thronged with the jobless. The assembly, which had been in recess, had agreed previously to meet Friday in response to demands that it do something quickly to replenish ex- hausted relief funds. After learning of the postponement. of the session, leaders of the job- less drew up a resolution promising to remain encamped “in ever-increas- ing numbers and improved morale” and await the return of the “sissy legislature.” Vandenberg Attacks ‘Democratic Digest’ Washington, April 24.—(#)—Senator Vandenberg (Rep., Mich.), Friday de- scribed as “shocking political ef- frontery” a suggeston he attributed to a publication of the Democratic national committee that a guillotine be set up in front of the new supreme court building. “The March number of the ‘Demo- cratic Digest,’ published by the Dem- ocratic national committee,” he said in @ statement, “contains the follow- mazing editorial: “The original guillotine which de- capitated Louis XVI, loyal friend of the American colonies when they needed a friend, was sold in France on St. Valentine's day for $167. With American liberties at stake, it might not be inappropriate to buy that guillotine and set it up in front of the new judicial temple which frowns across the park that separates it from the capitol.’” White House Audience On Seed Loans Denied Washington, April 24.—(?)—North- west members of congress were de- nied an immediate audience at the White House when they sought to carry an appeal to President Roose- vit for seed loan relief Thursday. Senator Nye (Rep., N. D.) said Marvin McIntyre, the president’s sec- retary, requested conferences on the subject be delayed until the White House could make its own investiga- tions that destitute farmers still were unable to get seed for spring plant- ing. Nye said McIntyre told him addi- tional information was being sought and that the senator would be noti- fied as soon as it could be obtained.

Moreover, it has been dem- much: rainfall will mature a crop as where the soil, otherwise, is lacking in barnyard fertility. And here are some suggestions: 1.—Barnyard manure conserves soil moisture. The manure resists rapid evaporation, 2.—The soil bacteria convert barn- Mey manure into abundance of plant 3.—Plants depend on moisture that ascends through the plant (in order to return to the atmosphere) to dis- charge within the plant what plant food it holds in solution; for only pure water is transpired from the leaves of @ plant. This plant food, so dis- charged, supplies the plant with the nutrition required for its growth and ultimate maturity. However, the plant requires a given amount of plant-food, regularly supplied, in order to insure its growth and maturity, same as a sheep or pig requires regular rations of food. In either case lack of food ma the plant or stunts the ani- mi And since a plant requires a given amount of plant food in order to grow and mature, the water conveying it to the plant is charged with plant- food, held in solution, in proportion to the abundance or lack of said Plant-food in the soll. This deter- mines the amount of fall required for any region. In other words, where the soil is well fertilized less rainfall is neces- sary to insure (other conditions fa- vorable), fair harvests. To avoid the evil effects of drouth to @ considerable extent, therefore, apply barnyard manure liberally to the soil. This means more depend- ence upon animal husbandry. If the foregoing is based on fact, at least one-third of a farmer's income should depend on livestock. For the grass and hay required for their main- ATTENTION R. A.
