ployed as seen through his searching
vision, by Miss Florence Kelly, chief
factory and tenement house inspector,
who treated of the overempIoyed, and by
Prof. Graham Taylor, of the chair Of
sociology OF the University Of Chicago,
on charitable relief efforts. The Rev.
DR.. Thomas D. Wallace, the retiring
president, was chairman Of the evening.
With him at the main table during the
dinner that preceded the speeches were
the president-slect, the Rev. Thomas G.
Hall, the speakers, President Coulter Of
Lake Forest university, the Rev. Fl. A.
johnson, D. D., pastor elect Of the Forty
first street church, the Rev. J. P. Hall,
w. A. Olmstesd, Robert F. Goldsmith,
the Rev. James G. Inglus, and Frank
J. Smith. There were IT'S ladies and
gentlement at the dinner. W. T. Stead
was the first speaker and he was given a
hearty reception. He opened his sub
ject with a graphic picture OF the scenes
at Harrison street station and the corri-
doris Of the city ball that he witnessed
the preceding night. "Thsse men, many
Of them l was told by Justice Bradwsll,
who accompanied me, are honest work
ingmen. They tramp your streets day
after day, eagerly searching help columns
Of the newspapers and trudRing three or
four miles through the snow, only to
find the place already taken, and then
YEARLY trsmping back to the heart Of
your great city, cold and hungry, seeking
shelter on the stone floors Of the station
house and the city hall. 1t is disgrace
to Christian civilization to thrust these
people into police cells, unworthy Of a
city tlke this, to convert the city hall
into a sleeping place for waits and va
grants. In Paris and London better
care is taken OF these unfortunstes than
in Chicago. There are plenty Of well
warmed factories and shops that should
be thrown open to these cold, stormy
nights" Mr.. Stead said though he was
only guests he could not help contrast
ing the $50 well fed people before him
with the 300 unfed, poorly clothed un-
fortunatss at Harrison street. On the
last day when CHRIST asks you what you
have done for these your brethren who
were cold and miserable, will you say
that you knew not that they slept without
supper at the Harrison street station,
while you dined sumptuously at the
Grand PscificP AT the prison at Ottawa
learned that it cost but cents day
to feed the inmates. The same amount
Will probably feed one Of these suffering
ones in Chicago, and if you have the 6
cents 1 do not see why you should not
pay"
Mrs. Florence Kelly followed Mr.,
Stead. She said as long as this misery
exists in Chicago, no one had right at
any place and at any time to forget it
This condition Of the unemployed was
due in large part to the, existence Of
the overemployed. For q greater part
of year large number Of workmen are
compelled to work from twelve to six
teen hours day and lay in idleness the
balance of the time, which always in
cluded the severe winter months. Mrs,
Kelley declared that the employment Of
children was to a great extent working

iu the city, but had run out Oh money
He had pawnsd everything but a pocket
Bible. He slept sOundly.
The watchmen who guard the city hall
night and day say they have no trouble
with the men, and they anticipate none.
At promptly 6 o'clock each morning the
watchmsn goes through the hall and
swaksns one at time. They must get
out then.
SLEEP IN RAILWAYS AND BoILERRoOMS.
Over on the great west side, where the
lodging houses abound and the VsgrRnt
class hibsrnstes, such a crowded condi-
tion Of affairs never before has been
known. Every lodging house among
the fly or more is filed to sufocation.
Men who cannot get lodgings at these
places or who have no money find rest in
Railways and boilerrooms OF the big
buildings. It has been calculated that
in the Eighteenth ward alone 10000
men find lodgings nightly. The police
stations, of which there are nearly a
dozen on the west side, furnish room for
many hundred more each night. Not
more than one.ffth OF the applicants
can be accommodated, and the men must
wander about all night or sleep in hall
ways.
HOMELESS ON THE SOUTH SIDE.
Nine hundred men were homeless and
hungry on the south side, between Van
Bursn street and the river, Sunday night.
There are numbers Of those who slept in
the South Side police stations. How
many slept in dOorwsys, barns, and un-
finished buildings cannot be told by the
police. Harrison street filled early be-
cause the Pacific Mission had closed it's
doors after taking in all it could care for.
At 8 o'clock $50 men had been taken into
the Harrison street station. Is was a
bitter night and few of the applicants
wore clothes enough to wRd shot gun.
Chief Brennan sent out an order some
days ago that no station should refuse
lodging as long as it had rUJm. Hsrri-
son street construss this order literally.
So long as there Is room for a man to set
his foot over the threshold none is
turned away. Men sleep on the stone
floor packed spoon fashion. There was
no room for individual turning around,
but at intervals there would 60 up
murmer Of "Spoon, boys, spoon" and the
whole crowd would turn on it's other
side.
Throughout the Lsvee the hard times
are showing and man will get "brsced"
for q dime where he never was before.
Clark street from Ven Buren, street
south is anything but an ideal hunting
ground for beggars, but there were many
shivering men on that street last night
who importuned everyone-even China
mentor the price of bed. 1t is fact
known to the police that many of
these men will freeze to death before
they will apply for lodging at a police
station, and many a man was run in"
last night whose only booking was q
kindly wink to the lookup keeper, and
whose only offense was that Of shivering
in the presence Of big policeman.
This is the record Of those who slept
at the south side stations last Sunday
night:

ing until at night and received for her
weeks wages 80 cents. Mrs. Kelly sug-
gssted that the only way to overcome
this condition of being overemployed
was by an enlarged scope to the present
factory and tenement house lay and the
employment of a greater number Of in
spectors.
"Prof. Graham Taylor devoted himself
to the relief and charitable methods of
the city, which, he said, were inadequate
to fully provide for the needs Of the peo-
pie and their own purposes. He sdvo.
Gated central charity bureau which
would embrace relief as we'll as the Rd-
ministration of charity itself. By such
central association, he argued, the
same results in charity work could be
accomplished as is accomplished by the
clearing house for the banks Of the city.
This, with the districting OF the city and
the placing of each district in charge Of
competent local committees, every case
Of dsstitution and suffering could be
reached, properly Investigated and
promptly attended to-"
The Chicago Tribune Of December
has the following:
More Than 900 Starving Fed By Business
Men.
Two thousand hungry men and boys
enjoyed a fine feast OK warm bread and
hot coffee at the Hub clothing house,
corner Of State and jackson streets, yes
terdsy. It was the best meal many Of
them had taken for a long time. There
was nothing extraordinary in the occs-
81 n. H. @. Levi wanted to do some
thing to help the poor, and ne thought
they needed food worse than anything
else. That is why he adopted the plan
Of serving bread and coffee. A large
room provided with a long pine table
was set aside on the second floor, and as
soon as the doors were opened at II
o'clock, 300 waiting beneficiRries rushed
in. They filed up the space and there
was still a crowd in the hallway, on the
stairs, and on the sidewalk in front.
Each person was given two large slices
Of bread, and big cup Of coffee with
cream and sugar in it. AS quickly as
they could eat and move out, their
places were taken by others. This con-
tinued about two hours, and in that
time nearly 1000 men were fed, but the
work OF feeding the starving was contin-
ued all the afternoon and evening. Six
hundred loaVes Of bread and $500 cups
of coffee were served, but great many
men managed to get q second portion.
George Frost had charge OF the sffsir.
It was q pitiful sight. Among the
dirty and ragged were scores of good
looking, well dressed men, evidently
clerks and bookkeepers, QUO of employ
ment and money, and suffering the psngs
Of hunger. Only two women applied.
One of them declined the food, but
asked Mr.. Frost if he could not supply
her with little loose change. Mr.. Levi
proposes to continue the work several
days, and it is believed other merchants
will follow his example.

house. wi yes; and it is needless to add it
is left in good hands. We will now state
a fact that is not as generally known as
it should be, viz, that our city cousins
are Just as fond of the good things OF
this life as are the farmers, and that, as
they have no hogs of their own to
slaughter, consequently none OF the by
products named above, they are more
than willing to pay literally for them
(when rightly and cleanly prepared); in
short, each of the above possess a pos
tive cash value in any and every local
market, end all the farmer has to do in
order to obtain remunerative prices for
same is TO show his "wares" ne atty ,cleanly
and attractively done up; this will insure
him market for all the ''surplus" by
products of the hog. For instance, we
have readily obtained, in our local
market 12A cents for hams; 12h cents
for souse, and 12A to Is cents for sau-
age; we have never sold below above
prices, and have never seen the local de-
mand fully supplied.
Our surplus lard likewise has readily
sold the present year for twelve and q
half to fifteen cents, and the lowest price
ever obtained for same (right at hOme)
was ten cents. We will now briefly
notice lard. Country made lard is pre-
ferred by our city cousins to the CONNER
cial product whenever Obtainable, and is
prepared as follows: Take the clean leaf
fat cut in small pieces and put in large
tin bucket, set this in a pot of boiling
water, stir from tine to time, until it is
melted; put in little salt which will
cause the sediment to settle, simmer
gently, do not boil fast at any time, and
give your whole and undivided attention
to it until it is done, and above all, be
sure it does not get burned; to obviate
this, stir constantly, and from the bot
tom. This makes a superfne article.
For ordinary uses, take the fatty pOr-
tions Of the hOg-scraps-Fa from the
entrails, cut them up, put in large pot,

water Ito prevent scorching). add little
salt and simmer till done, then strain
through a close cloth into jars, cover
closely, and when cold bury them in the
ground within an inch of the top in the
coolest part OF the smoke house.
SAUSAGE.
Take the pieces Of meat designed for
sausage (about three pounds OF fat to
six of lean), il the meat is already too fat
little lean beef may he added, chop fine,
season to suit with salt, pepper and sage;
the proof, as to when it is seasoned right
is in the eating, cook a small piece and
try it; this may be packed away in the
larger entrails( (Which have been previously
thoroughly cleansed and soaked in strong
brine), or in shucks or even sacks of cot

The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-12-13

From the last Bulletin OF the Florida
Experimental Station we extract the
following:
COMMERCIAL FERTILIZERS.
Not many of our farmers, even though
they practice most rigid system OF econ
omy, will be enabled to save from the
various domestic sources sufficient
quantity of fertilizers to supply their va
rious agricultural needs.
The design of commercial fertilizers is
to supply in an available form the three
elements OF plant-food, viz: phosphuric
acid, potash and nitrogen, that are
likely to become deficient under con-
tinuous system Of cultivation. A COM
mercial fertilizer may contain one or
more of these substances. A complete
fertilizer is one known to contain all
three of them in proper proportions.
soil may or may not need to be supplied
with g. complete fertilizer. Much will de-
pend upon the system of cropping that
has been practiced. One crop will re-
quire more OF one particular element to
grow successfully than another crop
would likely employ. Such an element,
ii not resupplied to the soil in the form
of fertilizer. will soon become exhausted
in the soil. In this way the soil would
soon be rendered unproductive and in
capable OF yielding good crops. This is
fo0 &c poOcnn-if ic pIoin
sense-and yet we encounter men every
day who claim to be intelligent. who are
always ready to disparage the use of
commercial fertilizers, and advise all to
leave them severely alone.
Doubtless many Of our sO-called ''com-
mercial fertilizers are frauds, put upon
the market by class OF dealers whose
only aim is to swell their own purses by
practicing their nefarious traffic. 1t is
the province of the chemist to find these
men out, and expose their rascality.
Much has already been accomplished
along this line, and much remains to be
done.
SOURCES OF NITROGEN.
Nitrogen is one of the most expensive
elements OF plant food. 1t is, at the
same time one OF the most important,
and is also the most difficult to keep in
the soil to supply the needs OF growing
crops. When it is present in the form Of
nitrate of soda or nitrate of potash it is
dissolved and carried out OF reach of the
plant roots very rapidly by water.
If present in the form of ammonia as it
occurs in manure heaps, unless precau-
tions are taken, a very large per cent. of
it will escape into the air. And whenit is
applied to the soil in the form OF am
monia, it will soon be changed into the
form OF nitrate, and as nitrate, if not
very soon appropriated by the growing
plant, it will be dissolved and carried of
