average -of .00119 per ear. 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

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. Chauffeurs' fees
in Illinois have increased from aw,

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

without L-lgatlon, as well aa under
a much lower rainfall than even
now Is commonly conceded neces
sary for successful crops. Camp-
must be considered. Nothing can
prove this more convincingly than
the soil auger.
"It Is very desirable, so far as
possible, to not only carry the high
percentage of moisture at the top of
the firm soil, immediately below
the mulch, but also to Induce fre;
delaying timely cultivation, and not access of air throughout the entire
Infrequently causing the higher growing season The ideal condl-
spots to lose much of its already
short supply. When the trees or
Tines reach the bearing period, the
tion to furnish this : ir is to cover
the firm soil with a granular mulch,
neither too fine nor too coarse. To
obtain this ideal mulch, the culti
vation must be ione when the soil
Is moist not wet or dry. The

Ject of "Soil Fertility by Utility

same subject before the Minnesota
Hankers' Association at Minneapo
lis. 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.
