WASHINGTON.—Plans for reducing by over one-third the fclze of the hall in which the national houso of
representatives sits, and yet increasing the number of seats for mem ors have Just been completed. They
will be brought to the official attention of the members of the house ul'hin e thort time, with the expec-
tation that they will be approved and that the work of alteration will be carried on in tha eight months interven-
ing between the adjournment of the present cession and the convening of the house of the S.xty-second con-
gress. The present hall of the house Is 139 feet long by 93 feet wide. I'nler the new pinna It will be only 8<>
feet long and 61 feet wide. In the preient hall there are individual chai-s and desks for < ach member; In the
proposed hall there will be rows of chairs as in the big theaters, wlh a !helf in frcnt upon which one who is
speaking can put his notes and other books and papers. Agitation for a reduction in the tlze of the hall of
the house has been continuous for several years. Many members have felt that they would like to be heard all
over the chamber w ithout shouting or w ithout having lung pow er made the teat of their oratorical abl.lty. The
present ball Is so large that the left hand side doesn't hear what the right, hand side is saying.
RECORD CORN CROP
South Carolina Boy Grows 228
Bushels on Single Acre.
Fifteen-Year-Old Lad Kept Diary,
Knowing Public Would Want De-
tails—Wins Quite a Bunch of
Money In Prizes.
Charleston, S. C—Jeremiah Moore
la the champion boy corn grower In
the world, and his record of over 228
bushels of corn of the finest quality,
grown on a single acre, Is the second
greatest acre yield in the history of
corn production, the only record that
tops Jerry's being that of Farmer
Crake, also of South Carolina, wbo
several years ago grew 255 bushels on
one acre.
Jerry Moore, wbo Is an orphan. Is
not yet 15 years old, yet on bis one
acre be has made more money than
thousands of farmers with 100 acres
will clear this year. His prices from
agricultural societies and kindred or-
ganizations will aggregate over $500,
while the profit from the corn itself
will amount to (130.70.
Jerry knew he was going to make
a bid for championship honors, and
though be is nothing but a poor little
South Carolina farm boy. he has the
news instinct and realized that If be
did win. the newspapers would want
to know how he did it, and so, In or-
der that the story would be correct,
Jerry kept a diary.
The diary, It Is said, will pass Into
There In on the ncre about 21 <W) s-atVa
an.! more than 80 0TM ears. Gathered fod-
der of August. Corn at this time
very ripe
Jerry then goes on to say that he
gathered in 3.000 pounds of fodder,
which he sold for $30. and then he
gathered in his corn, after which he
gives the names of the men who
measured his acre and later weighed
its yteld, which was 228 \ bushels.
This is the cost of ft all, as given out

"As the dirt has no commercial

did not count it in the list of commer-

improved at least $50 by the dirt and
fertilizer "
The name of Jerry Moore has now
become a household word In every
farm home In the South and West.
Among the prizes won by the boy is a

New York—Mngls'rate Freschl. no-

tled an Important point In the bringing
up of a family.
The case undrr consideration was
that of France* Pahner, thirteen years
old. who had her mother arrested on
a charge of assault. alleging that Mrs.
Pahr.er struck her over the head with
the heel of her slipper. Inflicting a se-

The mother proved by the testimony
of Dr. Costello. a Hrooklyn surgeon,
that the wound was nothing more
than an abrasion of the skin. It looked
formidable, however, in its big com-

Magistrate Freschl was certain the
punishment was Inflicted in a spirit of
loving kindness, so be discharged Mrs.

GRIW.NG CAMPHOR IN TEXAS
Soils of Country Ara Greatest Asset
Nation Has and Progress In All
Directions Depends Largely on
Their Condition.
James Wilson, secretary of agricul-
ture, in a recent address delivered in
Chicago, told of the necessity of bet-
ter larining throughout the entire
country. In the course of his remarks
he said:
To stop a growing decrease In the
yield of the average acre, the govern-
ment has made provision for the es-
tablishment of agricultural colleges
and experimental stations. Within the
last few years the acre has been re-
sponding better and the yield Is In-
creasing. Conservation of natural re-
sources has had a great deal of at-
tention lately. I think broad-minded
men will have no difficulty in reach-
ing the conclusion that the soils of
the country are the greatest asset the
nation has. that progress In all direc-
tions depends upon the condition of
the soil, and that there is no material
inquiry of such great value as what
pertains to the soils of the United
States. The notion Is not worth be-
ing entertained that any of our soils
are beyond redemption.
The people of the older nations of
the world took care of fertility of the
•oil as a matter of prime necessity,
and long ago ascertained the proper
succeEsion of crops and their relation
to the soil, the food of man. and the
food of animals.
They knew the soil must be fed.
that proper physical conditions must
be maintained, and they learned from
experience how to do It. They learned
that the decaying plant returned to
the soil Is the best food the growing
plant can have. They became aware
that the removal of the crops from
the farm resulted In soli deterioration
unless the equivalent was returned
from some source. They bad discov-
ered the value of the legume in farm
management long before Hellrlegel
discovered Its office In fixing nitrogen
in the soil.
The southern states are making
great progress In agriculture, and In
Etances of production, Indicating what
the soil can be made to do, might be
cited. Hoys under sixteen years of
age In South Carolina grew 228 bush
els of corn to an acre. Even In the
great corn belt nothing of that kind
has ever been done. The average In
the corn belt la quite low; that aver
*g> might be greatly Increased.
Each of 46.400 boys under alxteen
years of age has grown corn or pota-
toes or tobacco or some other crop
during the season just passed. What-
ever the boy Is doing Interests the
mature man. The southern states are
offering prizes to boys wbo have or-
ganized themselvrs Into clubs for the
purposo of bringing up to full activity
the productive powers of the southern
soil.
That might be done In other sec-
tions of the country with great profit.
The boy of 16 who has grown two or
three times the average amount of
corn grown on an acre In his state,
begets an Interest in the farm. He
sees the profit resulting from good
management. He learns bis first les-
son with regird to fertilising and with
regard to cultivation, the proper selec-
tion of seed, and all that; and he also
learns the most valuable lessons he
Will ever get"In his life.
Work similar to this need net be
confined to corn, tobacco and pota-
toes, but might slso be done with re
gard to all other farm Interests.
DEVICE FOR CORN PLANTING
Drops Kernels Neatly Into Rowa and
Spade-Like Apparatus Covers Them
Over—Works Easy.
Among the many implements In-
vented from time to time to make
the lifa of the farmer easier Is the
corn-planter shown here and designed
by an Oklahoma man. It will save
the farmer from many an aching back,
for where he formerly had to stoop
Innumerable times In sowing corn and
covering up the trenches, this device
will enable him to walk along the
rows with head and shoulders erect.
The general shape of this apparatus
Is shown In the cut. Below the handle
A Corn-Planting Device.
Is a lever, which can easily be operat-
ed by the same hand that carries the
Implement. Thla lever controls a
hluged lip at the tapering bottom ot,
the receptacle, which, of course, holds
the corn kernels, and when It la press-
ed the Up opens a crack and leta the
kernela Biter through. When the
pressure on the lever Is removed the
Hp closes by means of a spring. The
little spadelike arrangement at the
bottom, also controlled by tha lever,
Is used to scrape the dirt Into the
trench as the corn Is sowed.

Methods of Japanese Are Improved
Upon on an Experimental Farm—
Growth of Planta.
Houston. Tex.—The United States
may, within tbe next few years, be-
come a competitor with Japan In the
production of camphor The experi-
ments which the department of agri-
culture has been conducting In the
gulf coast region of this state In
growing tbe trees from wblch this ar-
ticle of commerce Is distilled have
proved beyond question that It can be
made a highly profitable Industry.
On the demonstration tarm at
Pierce. Just north of Hay City, cam-
phor seeds were plantt^l several years
ago and they soon germinated, the
trees having a remarkable growth In
one year's lime tbe plants reached a
height of 18 Inrhes. which Is said to
be a more rapid growth than they
have In the camphor producing re-
gions of the world
The seeds were planted In row*, and
were not fertilized, nor did th«-y re-
ceive unusual sttentlon. Meat results
are obtained by planting the seed un-
der shelter, where the tender plan's
have protection until they are well
enough advanced In size for trans-
planting.
An unusual method of harvesting
the camphor crop Is recommended foi
this region by the agricultural experts
of the federal government It la h ld
by them that a regular annual profit
of 1300 to 1450 an acre may be oL>
talned from a camphor farm In the
gulf coait territory by cutting the
camphor planta with a mowing ma-
chine when they reach a nelgbt of
about 12 Inches from- tbe ground. In-
stead of waiting until the trees are of
full growth size and then cutting
them, as la done on the Island of For-
mosa, frpm which the bulk of the
world's output of camphor comes.
It haa been demonstrated that by
cutting tha plant* yearly In tbe man-
ner suggested, a larger percentage of
camphor can be obtained from tbe
twigs and leaves of the plant <han If
the harvesting Is done until tbey at-
tain the size of a tree.
The stubble left by the cutting of
the plants soon sends up new sprouts
and la 12 months It Is again ready for
another cutting The camphor Is ob-
tained by putting the plants through
the distilling proci ss
