than was predicted. Concluding,
therefore, that the surplus application
was not necessary, he applied the
next year just the quantity thought
necessary to give fifty bushels more
than the production of the soil with
out manure. The result was that
the unmanured plot produced thirty
four bushels to the acre, while the
MANFRED plot gave 1928 bushels TO
the acre.
Similar experiments were con-
Quoted with potatoes, oats, hay and
beans, with correspondingly satisiac-
tory results. Not only so; but the
same plot planted the second year,
gave large increase over the unma-
nured plots; showing that the effect
OF the manure continued through the
second year. These experiments
have not been conducted sufficiently
long to establish the principle, but
the results thus far justify further ex-
pertinent on the same line.
While plant fertilization alone gen
orally gives satisfactory results, its
effects are much more satisfactory
when used in connection with soil
fertilization, especially when green
manuring is resorted to as a means
OF soil improvement.-Farmer's Sea

Assuredly, a soil containing up
wards of SO per cent. OF slick, can
not be hurt by the go per cent. in
pine straw ash. But it is true that
in land so unretentive Of moisture, the
straw may, if turned in by the usual
shallow blowing, remain undecayed
SO long, as to act in the way CON-
planned Of Then, by all means, in
stead of turning in, do what nature
does, and use it simply as a match.
1t will then be sure TO act IN precisely
the opposite manner, counteracting
drouth, suppressiTg weeds, and yet

Our greatest want is a ration al sys-

business as cropping itself. Our ag.
ricultural salvation does not depend
nearly so much on the composition
of this or that mans patent fertilizer
as on the outstanding OF home re-
sources and rational practice accord

as established by experience, and ex-

The editors on this coast, where the late
meteor was visible, must have been full of
benzine at the time of its appearance. No
two accounts have agreed in any respect,
but the most remarkable statement is the
following from the Phoebe Record Alarge
ball Of fire, which appeared to be thirteen
inches in diameter, suddenly burst forth
through the clouds in the northwest in the
vicinity OF Bristol, which dropped about
200 yards, where a bright flash occurred,
as though an explosion took place. and the
ball Of fire darted to the southwest about
two hundred feet. where another flash
took place, when the ball of fire darted
back, leaving a space of about three feet
between the top and bottom lines, when
the third fash occurred, then the ball pro-
ceeded TO fall, first In a zigzag, then in O
straight line to the earth, growing smaller
as it went down. Where the flashes oc-
