Iron Filings for the Soil

NorthernR fruit growers know that
the color of fruit is largely dependent
on the amount Of available potash.
which the soil contains. This, with
sunlight aids in the development of
both color and fine flavor A Califor-
MIA orange grower, Mr.. G. W. Pres
colt, has found that iron heightened
the color of his product and made it
more salable. His oranges were orig
lnally very pale, but by using five
pounds of iron filings around his trees
the color has been changed to dark
yellow, with increased quality of fruit.
50 much iron filings probably made
the soil more open and porous. If the
iron has served as plant food a small
quantity would have been sufficient.

he was the first animal Of the kind

Ailsa's performance during the latter
part of the race dumbfounded the on

Tho yachts started with Britannia in
the wind position. There was q good
breeze blowing, and 1t soon shifted to west
northwest causing the yachts to run along
alta spanking pace to half way to the Mouse
lightship Ailsa soon took the lead and
continued to increase the gap between
Britannia and herself until she was about
half a mile ahead at the lightship.
Ailss found 1t necessary to lower her
topsail and jib foressil. Even then she
heeled over considerably, while the
Bitannia, retaining her topsail,
was much sitter than her
opponent. After gybing round
the ligbtship, for the beat, Allsa simply
collapsed. The wind became moro shifty
and Britannia gained perceptibly on every
leg.
Brittania won by two minutes and AZ
