insufficient Plant Food.

Estimates of the amount of plant food
removed from the soil by an average
crop have been made known many times,
and farmers endeavor to avoid this loss,
by supplying fertilizers which contain
the elements removed, but such a course
does not increase fertility of the soil
or induce the growth OF larger crop,
as only that which is removed is returned
To increase the yield there n ust be an
addition to the supply of fertilizer,
and the increased growth will demand
an abundance OF plant food ready for use
II the crop is advanced largely and
luxuriantly to that stage at which it's
mission ends (the production of seed),
all the efforts of the plants will be
concentrated to effect their object,
which is the most critical period with
the farmer, as bis crop may depend upon
the result, and should the plant food
not be abundant, there may be a loss
which should not occur. Farmers who
stimulate their crops by using fertilizers
induce greater growth and an increased
demand for plant food, which must be
supplied, or loss will result in the
cost of the fertilizer, but if the soil
and the crops are abundantly supplied
with plant food every dollar expended
for fertilizers will be regained from
the crop if other conditions are favor
able

Economy of a Large supply.

a large supply of fertilizer to an acre
OF ground will not only give much
greater return, but also pay for the fertil
izer itself. IL fruit growing section of
New Jersey one grower annually applies
ton of fertilizer to an acre, the cost
being sometimes as much as $50, but he
was the only one in that section last year
who made good profit, as his crops
grew rapidly from the start, were we'll
rooted before dry weather, and were
within reach Of continual supply of
plaut food, the yield being sufficient TO
repay the outlay for fertilizer aud give a
profit as WELL at the same time leaving
bis soil in better condition than before.
In such case he would have been extrav
agant had he attempted to eoonomize in
the cost, as he would have failed in his
crops, as was the case with some of his
neigh bors. 1t is on record that over
1000 bushels of potatoes per acre have
been grown on an experimental plot, but
the crop was due to the liberal use of
fertilizers and the excellent cultivation
given.

ON THE FARM.


Too much cannot be said about fertil-
izers at this time, IS farmers must decide
for or against them within the next four
or Eve weeks. 1t is, no doubt, the inten
ton of the majority of farmers to use
both manure and fertilizer, and the az
vantages of their use are we'll known;
but the quantity 10 use Las been regu.
lated solely by the cost, in which cases
inferior brands have superseded the
bettergrades. The farmers OF this country
have been educated to a greater know
ledge of fertilizers by the experiments
conducted at the experiment stations,
and they have practically demonstrated
he results of the use of fertilizers, but
they have not taken advantage of fertil-
izers to the fullest extent possible in
order to procure the largest yield in a
single season. Plant food sufficient for
an ordinary crop may have been supplied
without allowing for an increased pro
ductiOn,

Mrs. Alice G. Robinson, president of
the Baltimore Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union spoke thus eloquently to
San reporter recently about our organ
ization:
81 fear there are thousands OF women
in this city, as well as in the State, who
have little or no knowledge OF what the
White Ribbon workers are doing and
have been doing for the past twenty
years."
We have forty-swo departments OF
work, with a consecrated woman at the
head of each department. Our organ
izatlon is non-partisan and non sectarian
We know no creed ard no nationality.
We strike hands with any party standing
for righteous laws, and with any creed
that teaches temperance.
We count Our membership among the
lowly as well as the high born, among
| the poor as well as the rich. and because
of our faith, and the treless zeal of cur
| workers. there is no civilized country
where our missionaries have not been,
| and we truly and proudly say that the
white ribbon bolts the globe.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union is twenty-one years old. A great
book would not contain the record of our
splendid victories during these years for
God and home and every land, and this
wonderful do everything and look every.
| where club turDs it's hopeful face toward
the future. This year has witnessed a
grand work done at our State headquar-
tiers, where many waits of the street and
children of drunkarGs have been under
daily free kindergarten training Nor
| is this all. Each day these poor children
| are given one good meal, and to many of
them that one meal meaDs all that they
have. We are anxious to accomplish
more in the coming year than ever before
We want to feed and teach a larger mum
Der OF poor children, to send speakers
through the different counties to form
new Unions and revive old cnes, to
preach the gospel TO those who are under
the dominion of stroug drink, and to
strive for the rescue OF girls who have
gone astray.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union has declared its sentiments IN
favor of the ballot for women, We are
fast coming to see that the ballot is
power, and that an educated ballot in
the hands of woman counts for as
much as a ballot in the hands of man.
The papers are kind to us, preachers
generally welcome our speakers to their
pulpits. Young men aud women are
showing unusual interest in the plans of
our grand organization that stands fer
so much, that is good and true. AS for
discouragements, We never think of them
but go steadily on with whatever we find
to do, and | believe that the Woman S
Christian Temperance Union will go
down the ages by the side of the Christ
ian church.

And loving looks upon thee shine,
And loving lips speak Joys to thee,
That never, never may be thine:
Then press thy hand nard on thy side,
And force down all the swelling plin:
Trust me, the wound, however wide,
Shall close at last and heal again.
Think not of what is from thee kept,
Think, rather, what thou hast received;
Thine eyes have smiled, if they have went
Thy heart has danced, il it has grieyed.
Rich comforts yet shall be thine own:
Yea, God himself shall wipe thine eyes,
And still His love alike is shown
In what he gives, and what denies.'
