How many more were injured and how much property was damaged through reck less driving and lack of observance of traffic lawa cannot be stated acc urately, but the figures are enormous. Obviously there is crying neeo for better regulation of the operation of automobiles in a country where they are so numerous. The Illinois Law. Tm nn.1 states the administration of automobile laws has been placed in the hands of the Secretary of State but he has been given no power to en force observance, i nis is leu entirely to local police and sheriffs. In Illinois we have just concluded very successfully an experiment which seems to prove beyond ques tion that the State official who licena es automobiles and administers auto mobile laws should have police power so far as automobile laws are concer ned. For some five or six years we exper im.ntaj with vnlunteer automobile investigators.These were responsible citizens in each community who, ba lm, drivers nf antomobiles them- selvea, were interested in seeing auto mobile laws obeyed. A badge to ne worn on the radiator of the ear and a certificate of appointment were giv en those who would accept voluntar ily this responsibility, and some good eenmnliahed in this WaV. The volunteer inspectors, however, had no police power. Tney couia oniy report violations to local authorities and in the end the degree of enforcement of automobile laws depended entire ly upon the attitude of the sheriff, chief of police, or mayor. States Inspectors. Investigation showed that thous ands of dollars which should have come into the State Treasury in the form of automobile and cnauneurs license fees was not being collected and that traffic laws -frequently were ignored. While In some communities there aearcelv anv violation of the law, in other communities there was the grossest laxness. i view nt this situation, the last legislature passed a law permitting the Secretary oi otate to appoint Qtnte aiitnmnhile inanectora invested with power to make arrests for traffic laws of the state. Under tms law, zo inspectors were appointed. These Inanectora are costing the tste for aalarv and expenses less than $50,000 per annum and by their ArrnrtB thev have Increased the re turns from automobile license fees by at least a quarter of a million a In other words, they have paid for themselves five times over merely in the collection of fees. But the efforts of the inspectors are not confined to this one activity. They have aided very materilly in in- .... nir the safetv ot travel on me iiirhivflvt nf the state bv enforcing traffic laws and headlight laws. Illionis has 10 counties, so inai it haaH neeeiissrv to (riva each of the 25 inspectors four or five counties to look after. The inspector cannoi this larire territory ad equately by individual effort. He gets in touch with the shenns, cnieis oi police and mayors of the territory under his jurisdiction and secures their co-operaton. In this way unifor mity of regulation is mamtainea ana few violators escape punisnmenu To Increase Fees, U'heee there ere State Police this work perhaps could be left to them, but the experiment in Illinois has proved very conclusively that there huld he some state authority to se cure uniform enforcemnt of automo bile laws throughout the entire state. The first result of the regulation is to increase automobile fees, which in Illinois and in practically every otner state are used in the building of more hnrd no.U nr the maintenance of roads already built.

Phone 512, Heppner shows that the real advantage ot careful preparation of the soil be fore setting Is sometimes, but not generally fully considered and appreciated. "It to tery Important to first prepare the surface by leveling," says Campbell. "Then arrange for Irrigating In such a manner that water may not only be evenly ap plied over the whole surface but In as short a time as possible. In other words establish an even sur face with reasonably short laterals. Too much water In the soil beneath some trees or too little for others is detrimental, usually. Again, the low er places, especially In heavy soils, gather more water, keeping the ,i. hi ii u i -I ' ! m v r , s v -v f . f " i A 2, if-. - . : ,, f.- u J'- i if.

On his return from these con ventions he will stop at Tuma, Arizona, to Investigate conditions there. Interesting evidence of the direct evenly distributed, bo that when effect of properly prepared lands the trees or vines are set, there Is was recently received by Campbell a condition so favorable that not from a Metropolis, Nevada, grain- only the -veaker sets may quickly field prepared under his direction; take root and grow vigorously, In- In the form of three stools of wheat. One stool had 81 stalks, one 103 and one 120, each the result of one grain of wheat drilled In well prepared soil that was liberally supplied with fertility through well planned and timely work. This crop was raised without irrigation, but was pre pared for by summer tillage In 192 and grown this year. More evidence of what cultiva tion of a growing crop means was sent to Campbell by A. B. Shield of Delano, Kern County, California, In four heads of wheat from stool grown on Shield's ranch. This stool had ample space and was cultivated while growing, no fertil isers or Irrigation being used. The stool contained forty-four heads averaging 78 grains each or slightly over S400 grains from one stool. Such results, says Campbell, sim ply mean that under certain phys ical conditions brought about by (be right kind of tillage at the proper time, very much more grain, fruit or vegetables may be grown per acre than Is commonly ob tained. The usual query Is "Does It pay?" to which Campbell replies very emphatically In the affirma tive. Campbell recently Inspected a number of new orchards and vine yards In the southern and central portions of California to study meth ods and principles commonly prac ticed In preparing the land and the after care in irrigation and cultivation. One of these Inspec tions was of a 4000 acre peach orchard of one, two and three-year-old trees belonging to the Cali fornia Packing Corporation and lo cated east of Merced, Calif. What Is usually easy to obtain In sandy soils, but to do this properly In heavy soils it Is sometimes neces sary to go over the field a second time, after first going over Just enough to loosen the top when the surface Is simply dry enough not to stick. This prevents the crust ing or drying out. Then the second operation should come one to four days later, after the free water has gone down, leaving the soil moist, when it more readily separates, and makes a finer and much more effective mulch. This procedure stead of withering and dying, but .means much to the tree, as a tag the winner weather, Is a big factor. The ability tt supply this desired moisture In proper quanti ties the entire season through each year, is the first consldc atlon. "The next question is the perfect root bed. This should be supplied liberally with available plant food a healthy, uniform growth may be obtained the first year, which means much to the early and an nual traitage of the trees or vines. "To ach: jve this result, after lev eling, the field should be cultivated practically an entire season before setting to trees or vines, with only sufficient Irrigation to assist In establishing the ideal root bed which should be both fine and fair ly firm from the very start. The object Is to continually carry the proper quantity of both air and water through the heated part of the season. Under this condition, with the high percentage of moist ure held at the top of the firm soil, through careful and timely cultiva tion, there will be a liberal develop ment and growth of that most de sirable soli bacter a. This proce dure Increases the much needed plant food more evenly In all parts of the field, before setting, than can possibly be developed after higher precentage ot moisture Is held tn the root tone and a crust ing and cloddy mulch Is prevented. "The high value of this plan of preparation and one season's culti vation before the setting of the trees or vines, Is borne out by the Interesting results obtained from careful summer tilling tor wheat, oats and barle), and the preclse ness ot time In doing this work Is Just as vital. There are numerous records of large yields ot wheat as high as 40 to 60 bushels per acre, grown on correctly summer tilled land, where nearby fields, prepared and sowed under the more com mon plan of 'any old way,' yielded very poorly or nothing at all." The Southern Pacific Land De partment "Bulletin No. 10" deals quite explicitly with questions of Increased fertility by tillage. Bul letin No. 12 also explains In detail the summer tilling question as ap plied to the coast country. One Betting. This gives an advantage or both may be obtained without not otherwise obtainable. "Much can be said of irrigation and cultivation after setting, but to be brlof, care should be taken not to over-Irrigate, for to obtain the best results, the soil tn and about the root zone must be moist but not wet. When the soli Is sat urated there Is practically no healthy growth. As rule cultiva tion is not only Insufficiently fre quent but too often is so untimely as to be of little value. "There are certain conditions of moisture in the soil following irri gation, tbe same as following a rain, when the high value of culti vation to the fitwl crop is very much greater. These conditions cost by letter or personal applica tion to Hardy W. Campbell, 981 Southern Pacific Building, San Francisco. A Bulletin Is now un der way dealing with tillage and Irrigation of orchards and vine yards. Campbell's greatest pleasure Is to visit a farm or ranch where the proprietor or manager feels he is not getting satisfactory returns and work out, as far as possible, a practical remedy. The Southern Pacific follows the theory that Its interests are tied up with the terri tory It serves, and Campbell and the Compuny wish to be helpful In Increasing agricultural productivity.
