Facts Respecting Plaster.

Mr.. Editor:-I have for twenty-five
years been gathering facts on the best
authority of well-known farmers, such
as 90 to make clear what plaster does,
and how it does tor under what con-
ditions success or failure may be pre-
dicted-going to show, as l infer, that
the hay crop may be made perpetual,
so far as we yet know, without any
other fertilizer, on the lime soils, such
as nearly the whole of Northern Maine,
the valley of Penobscot river from three
to ten miles wide, the valley of Lake
Champlain for twenty miles or more on
the Vermont side, from Canada to Con-
necticut on the south, nearly the whole
of the state of New York, together with
all the lime regions of the Middle States,
Kentucky and Virginia. And now any
facts coming from any of these To-
calities corroborating or denying my
own statements will be equally well
come to establish the truth with its linn
itatiOns.
In Elmira, n. Y, DR.. Morrill,, an
educated physician, now large farmer,
will show where may be seen grass
ground mown for seventy-fve years
with a full crop of hay, without any
other manure and without the sod ever
being broken. Judge Cummings of Fort
Fairfield, Maine, will show field
moved in the same way now twenty
five years. The Isaac Haynes farm
near Passadumkeag, thirty miles above
Bangor, being left by its occupants, was
mown until the crop was one-fourth
ton to the acre in 1917. With plaster
alone the crop was restored to one and
one-half tons per acre for thirty years,
when last reported. In Masardis,
Maine, Sanfeld Read, as executor of
his neighbours property, applied plaster
to the mowing-land then yielding but
one-fourth ton to the acre, getting the
first year one and one-half tons, the
next year two tons, and the third year
nearly the same as the first. All over
Aroostook county can find where one

The Ben Davis Apple.

Our valued friend and correspondent,
w. p. Anterior of Hallowell, Maine,
who is an extensive and successful Or
chardist, writes in the Maine Farmer of
the Ben Davis apple as follows:
81 have recently tested this Justly
celebrated fruit, and am now satisfied
that it is much better apple in quality
than many people imagine, or even
than what it has already received credit
for. My previous judgment was based
partly on hearsay, but principally on
having tasted the fruit when not in its
best condition. 1t is far from being a
third-rate apple, as some would have us
think. i fear the apple has been toe
hastily, if otunjustly, maligned. The
fruit which l tested grew in Hallowell-

agricultural.
T. H. HosklNs, m. D., Editor,
Newport, Vermont.

THE REV. Mr.. KEEP, an old Ver-
monter and a graduate of Middle
bury, but long missionary in the
wilds of Northern Maine, sends us an
article on the use of land plaster (sul-
phate of lime-gypsum) as fertilizer.
Mr.. Keep has long taken lively inter-
est in agriculture, and is an acute OBJ
server. His article will be read with
interest, and will, we hope, draw out
the experience of others on this subject.
The remarkable effect of plaster as a
promoter of the grass crop in some
places, and its absolute inertness in
others, is one of the unexplained facts
of agriculture. Mr.. Keep thinks plas-
ter may prevent the escape upwards of
the nitrogen of the soil. According to
careful experiments conducted in En-
gland, at Rothamsted, great deal of
nitrogen is lost by forming insoluble
compounds in the soil and also by
teaching in very wet weather. May not
plaster act to make this nitrogen soluble
and to retain it near the surface? And
again, may not the sulphuric acid, which
constitutes nearly half the weight of
plaster, also act to make both the in
soluble potash and phosphoric acid in
the soil available? Certainly the sub
ject is both interesting and important.

THE Rural Ne,c Yorker says, speak
ing of oleomargarine: "Though thou
sands of pounds are handled each week,
we have never seen it retailed under
its proper name. 1t is next to impossi-
BILE for an ordinary person to tell it
from genuine butter. We have seen
very intelligent people eat it with salts
faction, supposing they were eating
tirst-class butter. In many cheap res
taurants and boarding-houses consum-
ers probably know what they are eating;
but it seems evident that the great bulk
of oleomargarine is sold and eaten as
butter. The fact that the imitation is
so perfect has led thousands of business
men who take their lunch in the city
to give up the use of butter when away
from home"

WE believe there is a good deal of
humbug in the statements recently put
forth in regard to the long credits al
lowed on fertilizers. We have talked
with several agents about it, and they
all say that their sales are either for
cash or very short credit, and that the
makers will allow but a small discount
for spot cash. How is this, Mr.. Bow
