NEIL (Associated Press Foreign Staff) Asmara, Eritrea, May 21.—(P)— responsibilities as viceroy of Rthiopia in the hands of Gen. Rodolfo Graziani, was on his way home Thursday for a conquering hero's return to Italy. General Graziani, commander of the southern campaign, arrived in the power of government in the name ot king-emperor Victor Emmanuel just before Marshal Badoglio took his leave of the former Ethiopian capital. The commander-in-chief was ex- pected to arrive. by military plane later Thursday at Gora, about an! hour's drive from Asmara, and pro- ceeded to Massawa where he probab- ly will sail Monday aboard the hospital ship Arborer for Italy. There, he expected to lead a trium- phant procession through Rome's an- cient arch of Constantine June 7 when Italy will celebrate simultaneously its “Constitution Day” and its conquest and annexation of Ethiopia. Well-informed sources considered it unlikely the 65-year-old chief of the Italian army general staff would ever return except for a visit. General Graziani, a giant of a man, hardened colonial campaigner and hero on the southern front, was ac- cepted as an ideal choice for the task ot completing the conquest and oc- cupation of Ethiopia.

Another reason is that} the farmers in general rarely have) seen any real effect from manuring | the fields, except in form of weeds. ‘There was not a word about how the manure was to be handled, how to protect it and how to apply it. If Dr. Worst knew it he would probably be the first to admit it was a bad oversight. If he, on the other hand, does not know it, he will find the explanation in this article. Many farmers fear to use it and the Treason is that a horse has a poor di- gestion and a short intestinal canal. ‘Whole grain and weed seeds can go through a horse without harm to the germination. Most horses are fed on wild hay. This hay could contain more than 50 per cent weeds. When mangers were emptied for rubbish it was used as bedding with its millions of seeds. The most common advice from the “experts,” who did not know more about this matter than a cat on mustard, was: “Don't let the manure lie at the barn and burn, haul it right out and spread it on the field.” An advice based on plain ignorance, in spite of the fact that it is still) very common. And the effect was that the farmer himself was seeding weeds in his field, and later had to spend time and money to destroy them. Hence his fear of barnyard manure. Advertisements advising farmers to buy spreaders explain that barnyard manure is worth $2 a ton, rather con- | servatively estimated, but never a word about handling, protecting and applying these two dollars worth of manure. And Dr. Worst wrote as though he believed barnyard manure under all circumstances would remain a fer- tilizer. That is, unfortunately, not the case, and that is the reason why | so few farmers have seen any real effect from it. Agriculture is a sci- ence. Soil culture is a part of that science and fertilization is a part of soil culture. North Dakota's future depends on the soil culture. The farmers must become agriculturists, not merely farmers, as that term gen- erally is understood. What we first of all must realize is that barnyard manure is not a fertilizer in itself, but only in the chemicals it contains. The problem will therefore be how to protect the manure from losing these chemicals, that is, to make it remain a fertil- izer until it is applied to the field by plowing it down or harrowing it in. How does it lose its fertilizing ingre- dients? By exposing it to sun, wind, and—at the barn—rain. If a load of manure is taken direct from the stalls and spread on the field on a warm summer day, the next after- moon the fertilizing elements will hhave disappeared and only the dry stuff will remain, and that is hardly worth more as a fertilizer than dry straw from the stack. This is the feason why farmers rarely have seen any real fertilizing effect from the | FRED KNUDSEN. —_ | Editor's Note: In his letter, | Dr. Worst attributed the decline | of North Dakota agriculture to | decreased fertility of the soil.

Gums ¢ | | Spurn Human Help Fort Myers, Fla., May 21.—()— Death drew near for some 20 stranded black whales Thursday because they preferred destruc- tion with their leaders to rescue by humans. The whales, led by four large bulls, ran aground on a beach at nearby Captiva Island Wednesday. Several parties of fishermen saw the peril of the mammals so they secured ropes and managed to drag several of the smaller ones back into deep water. The res- cued animals promptly lunged back on the beach. The rescue workers were unable to move the three and four-ton leaders so they finally were forced to leave all to die.

EARTHQUAKES KILL HUNDREDS IN CHINA Chinese Offer Sacrifice to Ap- pease Angry Monsters of Earth's Interior Shanghai, China, May 21.—(7)— Earthquakes killed hundreds in Cen- tral China, caused extensive damage and terrorized the superstitious na- tives, reports reaching Shanghai Thursday said. Several hundred were killed and injured Saturday at Pingshin, Szech- uan Province, by a severe shock, the reports said. Sixty per cent of the buildings in Pingshin were leveled. Similar quakes occurred Wednesday in Chunkking, Szechuan Province, and at Lanchow in neighboring Kansu Province. Death and damage from the later shocks was not reported in edad and belated accounts reaching ere. Drums were beaten, sacrifices of- fered and other magical devices re- sorted to by the terrified Chinese in their eagerness to appease the mon- sters they believed cause the shocks. The Chinese believe these earth- quakes are caused by huge whales in the interior of the earth arching their backs against the upper firmament DIETING TO REDUCE Dangerous Fat Cut out fat meats—you don't need them—eat sensibly of lamb, lean beef, fish and fowl.
