Lewis of the Philadelphia Common Pleas court. He predicts that barriers will be erected by the leading cities to prevent the wholesale |entry of such persons. Judge Lewfa, made these statements yesterday in addressing the October grand jury. They Were severely criticised and disputed by a numlber of prominent Negroes of this city* "It is amazing," said Judge Lewis, to appreciate the great number of members of the colored race who are charged with crime Aparently 70 to 80 per cent of persons held in prison charged with crime are colored persons. I believe that Jus is due to the indiscriminate mig ation from the rural section to the large cities. "I believe that large cities should have the right to say who shall m. 7, L',r confines, otherwise Ih.ladelph.a and other large cities withm the next ten years will not be f.t to live in. Some sections of them are not fit to live in now." Among the Negroes who took issue with the judge were Rev. Charles A. Tindley, a Methodist preacher; Fred Henry, ? police magistrate, and Charles R. Whyte principal of the public school. His statements also were assailed by the John M. Langston Bar. association, an organization of 27 Negro lawyers. Judge Lewis' statements are damaging to the colored race and unjust,' said a statement by the Langston association. "The best way to prevent ignorant Negroes from coming here is to educate them in the south where they are. Any law to prevent an American citizen from going from one part of the country to another would .establish a ghetto *y*pnn and wotiW be;unconstitutional. .. _ the learned judge himself from the south, is not of the proper attitude of mind to deal partlall 8?Uthern Ne*roes ? m M Ti lmembers of Die Honorable and Ancient Order 6t Henpecked Husbands' escape from to spend a day in doing things forbiddejT in their hb?es.

S. Buie, chief j agronomist of the Station, in intro- I duction Station Bulletin 242, Experi- ' ments with Small Grains, which is a new publication now ready for distribution by the division of j>ubli? ( cations, Clemson College, S. C. I rhe new bulletin is a 20-page * booklet reporting results of tests * with oata, rye barley and wheat on a varieties found best suited to this ( state and fertilising practices that 1 give best results. 4 Results of variety tests of the J small grains are reported with Ful- J ghum, Red Rust Proof, Hastings' > 100 to 1, and Appier as the highest 1 yielding oat variety tested. Abruz- * zi is shown to be the outstanding ivariety of rye, included in the tests. Alabama Blue Stem, Boggs, Fulcat* 1 ter, and Forty to One were the highest yielding varieties of wheat included in the wheat variety test. < Winter Bearded was the highest yielding barley tested, although Tennessee Bearless and certain selections of Hooded and Awnless appear promising. 1 The small grains are shown to be most responsive to applications of nitrogenous fertilizer, with increases due to phosphorous and potash on ( the lighter types of soil. j The benefit from increasing the 1 application of complete fertilizer is shown to be due largely to the additional nitrogen supplied. ( The value of topdressing small grains with a supply of readily, available ammonia early in the spring *s clearly shown. But little difference was noted in one year's test of the more commonly used inorganic sources of ammonia when applied in equivalent amounts early in the spring. Increased quantities of soluble ammonia applied as a spring top-1 dresser resulted in increased yield.j Applications of' readily available ammonia made on or prior to March 15 gave highest yields.
