Preside,at Coolidge is deeply rel: giotis, end his accession is welcomed by the God-featring portion^ot the na- tion. He is broadminded ` in his con- victions and ;oarries:his -religion; .not his Sectarianism, into his public life. As with Lincoln, he has a deep rev- erence for his mother and just before coining: to Washington to assume WS duties,;. he. stetod with bowed head'"by his mother's grave in silent;comrnun- fon with his Creator and his mother's spirit. Calvin Coolidge is of average height, thin end wit'y of. body, .blue- eyed' and auburn -haired. Quiet and dignified, he differs completely from the usual type of politician. His long fingers mark him as a mastercrfde- tail , .He is of the old school Who be- Lieves that what one does oneself is certain to be done right. He is not a grandiloquent orator. He has in impressive manner, and the infirma;ive nature of leis s to ch - 1 e. es. holds`hi8 alidieuce, His political speeches have aidvays been carefully prepared and: succinct, His inaugural addresses aseGovernor of Massachu- setts, contained exactly forty words. The peculiar effects of- the Systena used in nominating party candidates for. the Presidency -and Vice-Presi- deney are exemplified by what hap- pened in the 'Republican .National Convention in 1919.which placed Coolidge in .line for the Presidency, The political = bosses wrangled and fought long over General Wood and Governor Lowden, andfinally cont - promised on Harding. Whn the Vice -Presidential candidate "cause up for decision, the boss -ridden dele- gates rebelled, and rejected the :ma- chine candidate for second place. The old guard bowed to the 'enthus- iasm with which Coolidge's name was: quoted as a candidate for the Vice- Presidency. Calvin Coolidge was born in 1572, on a \rerrnont home and,was. "raised" as a farmer. These is nothing in ag- ricultural g ricultural life with he is not la,nailiar. He can milk, handle an axe like a t aird • . `ir at r i wU r s Y4 1 e 4V p r sr w sy h the best et them: f'lis father says he used to de as znucli as any two hit;ed :kinds, Coolidge atteneled A,niheee t ° College r g li Vermont, from which he graduat- ed. drill: high scholastic aIGain meu its 5 . Through in 190xlrroiirlr lack ofi, means, he could not enter law school, and fitted himself for the bar examinations whi.le'wovki'ng In a law office. Oe be- ing admitted to the Bar, he began his. law practice in Northampton, where he . began his pplitical career. Throughout his career he has never be ' been (Ideated in an election. His d grasp of detail has been in'ealuabio to lura and his conception at a pol- rtici"an as one who is willing to put pito geverument more than are takes oat has _earned Bins the position he holds to -day, After serving as rep- resentative and thn nenator in the Massachusetts Legislature, he was Lieutenant -G ovrnor in 1916-1916 and Governor from 191S to 1920. 'While Governor of lYlaSsacirusotts, he ably 'handled the Boston police strike and larojeGteCl himself 'into the national' political, arena. The Amer jean people admired his stand, When the Boston police deserted their posts and: the city fell into a state of;>dis- o•der and crime, Coolidge called out the State Guard and issued a'procla-' rnation—there is no right to strike. against public safety by anyone, any- where, any tinge! In the senatorial election which followed, he was promptly named "law and order" Coolidge. He won a sweeping victory with a plurality- of 125.000 and won the<,largest vote ever, recorded for a,.' Governor of Massachusetts. His platform abounds in ``Coolidge brevities:" Do the day's work. If it be to protect the rights of the weak, whoever objects, do it. It it be to help a powerful corporation the better to serve ;the people, what- ever the opposition; do that. Expect to becalled a stalid-patter but don't be a stand -patter. Expect to be cal- led a demagogue, but don't be a .dem- agogue. Dont hesitate to be as rev- olutionary'as, science.

Do not;give the bindweed a chance to make ,any early spring growth. If the field' is in sod, plow shallow. If the land was plowed last fee it will not be necessary to plow again this spring.' Cultivate every week or ten days with a cultivator tiith broad points, that .will : cut all the plants off an inch or two below the ground without bringing .the creeping root -stalks .to the surface. Continue cultivation until the 24th of May or let of Tune. Then plant corn in hills 42 inches apart each way so that .it can he cultivated both ways. As soon as the cornjs up, cultivate it. with a corn cultivator at least every two weeks, oftener•,if possible. Just as soon as tlie'corn is cut plow out the stalks and'' cultivate every ten days or two weeks with the broad- shared cultivator. It is very import- ant to cultivate again as soon after the corn is cut as possible, so that the: bindweed wjll not have a chance to get started into growth. The last thing in the fall rib up the land into drills, and allow to stand over winter. Thefrost in all probability will render Material as- sistance in the 'eradication. The fol- lowing spring start cultivation` with the broad -shared cultivator as soon as you can get on the land. Repeat' frequently enough to prevent the'' bindweed making any growth above the ground, until the first or middle of June. Then sow pasture rape: (Ut}arf "Essex variety), or turnips, in drills 26 to 30 'inches apart, at the rate of about 11 pounds per acre., As soon as the crop is up, 'cultivate every week or ten days until it oc- cupies all the ground and makes further cultivation impossible. If the -bindweed should get started in the rows, hoe it out as cornpleteiyas possible. This„ however, should not 0* necessary if the previous eultiira tion has:been frequent. and tboroulr,: This plan requiresdw° years to coma- �' plebe, but 11, is 'worth doing. ---J. L. Howitt, 0. A.
