Commercial Fertilizers,

President NJ. III. Buckhana, U. 2. N.
and s. Il. c.:
Dear Sir.-During the past winter
[ have had occasion to address the
farmers in various parts of the State
on the subject of the use on their
farms of commercial fertilizers. /
have, among other things, advocated
their purchase of ground bone as
being the cheapest and best source of
the phosphoric acid so much needed
by their crops. The reply has been
constantly made that the State fertil-
izer law does not include this class of
fertilizers that the manufacturer is
not required to place on the packages
any guarantee of the quality of their
contents, and if he should, the law
does not require that they be anal
yzed to see if they are up to the stan
dard. This is true, for while the law
provides most admirably for the pro-
lection of the farmer against fraud in
the case of superphosphates and
mixed fertilizers, yet it does not ap-
ply to any simple fertilizer, such as
potash salts, sulphate of ammonia,
dried blood, ground bone, etc. OF
these incomplete fertilizers, but little
is sold in the State, except the ground
bone, and in the purchase of this the
farmer has to depend entirely on the
good faith of the fertilizer agent. In
this state Of affairs it seems best that
the University should come to the
aid of the farmers and by chemical an
alysis of the various brands of ground
bone for sale in the State, put the
farmers in possession of the needed
information. The analysis of all the
fertilizers coming under the law |
have just finished, and would now like
to complete the work by Analysing all
the bone manures of the State. If the
plan should meet with your approval,
L would suggest that the farmers be
to send at once to the uni
versity, samples Of the various brands
of ground bone, which they have pur-
or are thinking of purchasing,
the results of the analyses to be pub

The Hon. Augustus H. Garland, at

only regrets over the fact that the
Department of Justice had become an

was that the speculation did pot pan
out better. Still it PANIED out very
well. Nobody has made very much
money out of it yet, but what large,
constant, and increasing dividends of
disgrace and dishonor it makes paya-
BILE TO the Democratic officials engaged
in it; and every one of these dividends
of dishonor is endorsed over to the
Administration and the party. Oh,
Mr., Garland need not fear. The

A curious sort of boycotting is that
instituted against the wife of Gov.
Foraker, of Ohio. The Governor sent
a message to the Legislature, calling
attention to the manner in which
wealthy people avoid taxation by re-
fusing to make a proper return of their
property to the assessors. This
reused the ire of the rich people at
Columbus, and when the Governors
wife gave her regular reception the
society danes with one accord re-
NAMED away-boycotted her, in short.
Nobody in this free country belongs
to any privileged class possessing the
inalienable right of exemption from
taxation. The rich people of Column
bus ought to be ashamed of them
selves. Their conduct goes very far
toward proving the truthfulness of
Gov. Forakers allegations. And
their boycott will be as big a failure
as that directed against Mrs. Gray,
the plucky New York baker. Pie and
the tax gatherer laugh at the vain eff
forts of the boycotter.

There is now being exhibited in
Chicago beautiful picture done en-
tirely with a needle. At the distance
of few feet it has the appearance of
a mellow old engraving or etching,
but on close inspection shows itself to
be needlework. The background is
of white silk, grown somewhat yellow
with age, and the material used in
working is thread drawn from black
silk Grape. The drawing of the pic
ture is perfect, and aside from its
value as a curiosity, it is a marine
view of real merit. Its present owner,
an English gentlewoman now living
in Chicago, can furnish satisfactory
proof of its having been in their own
family siEce the year 1897. Before
leaving England she frequently re-
fused offers of large sums for it, not
forseeing the misfortunes which now
compel her to part with it.

1t is estimated, says the Milestone,
that there are over $4,000 workmen
at present on a strike in this country
that represents 100000 a day lost
to the producing classes. Supplement
this by the enforced idleness of six
time $4,000 persons who are unable
to produce anything, and there is to
be admitted a very pertinent text for
the rampant anarchist. Yet, notwith-

pose to settle these matters without
