Washington weighs sedition penalties amid espionage debate
Washington lawmakers push a sedition bill with penalties of up to twenty years and ten thousand dollars for interference with government bonds and the draft. Senators debate its reach while fears rise over German spies and propaganda, with critics like Lodge and Johnson warning of free speech erosion and partisan use. George Creel defends Public Information, denounced by Watson who questions his role and past writings.

Preservation of Soft Corn in Cold Stores
Farmers should ventilate and turn soft corn stored in cribs to prevent spoilage as weather warms. Feed what can be used, transport remaining shelled corn to drying centers, lower drying temperatures and extend drying time to prevent breakage. Save old corn for seed and test germination before planting.

Manure Saving Tip for New Livestock Farmers
Save manure to reduce fertilizer costs. For beginners in livestock, fertilizer prices rise and supplies vary, so conserving manure helps supply nutrients to land and lowers dependence on purchased fertilizer.
SOSOOOOOL LOH FARM REFLECTIONS
When the average man wants to quit is the time to get interested in horse production. Gumption is ability to put the grease where the squeak in. Rats in the grain bin are almost as destructive as a bull in a china shop. A rat-proof granary is a national bulwark these days. Don’t neglect it. Many county fairs are apparently run in the interest of the faker rather than of the farmer. A general overhauling is in order if they are to serve efficiently the object for which they were established.
Feeding Corn Alone to Pigs Reduces Growth Efficiency
Feeding corn alone to young pigs yields slow gains and high feed costs. Avoid damp litter as wet dirty bedding can cause sickness in the flock.
