The New Jersey Experiment Station has
sent out circular OF information to farm
crs concerning the value of commercial
fertilizers. A new fertilizer, called Tex
ana Guano or Manure" the circular says,
sells at $40 to 81 ton, and is not ac-
companied with the guaranteed analysis
required by law. A sample analysed at
the station showed that its valuation at
the stations prices is but Sc. SO, aud that
it is of low grade in respect to quantity Of
fertilizing constituents, containing but
AGO pounds Of plant food. A large num-
Der of other manufactured brands now
sold In the State are just as bad. The
circular says that nitrogen, phosphofic
acid and potash are the only constituents
Of direct fertilizing value, and mixtures.
containing all of these in good forms can,
not be secured for low price per ton UNI
less they are contained in very small
amounts; and the expense of handling is
just as great for poor as for good ferll-'
lizers.

DR.. David Warman, in the course of
a paper read before the Board of Trade
in Trenten, last Thursday. evening, refer
red as follows to the danger to health from
dumping garbage in our near towns
There is no one source OF danger to the
public health of Trenton so serious. so
vast and 80 offensive as the garbage
dump. Already its pestilential odors be
gin TO reassert themselves. There arc
large sections of the city that are never
free from these odorous and dangerous
gases. Garbage and other refuse mixed
with ashes and other rubbish decomposes
very slowly. Excavation OF land made
up years previously of such materials dis
closed organize matter still decomposipg,
thus making il dangerous to live upon,
and carrying deadly poison to other parts.
Aside from air and soil pollution the
decomposing of organtic matter may also
give rise to the germs of specific disease.
Now what Is the remedyl We answer,
cremation OF the garbage. We would
therefore urgently and respectfully adj
wise the Common Council without further
delay to cooperate with tho Board of
Health in securing this speedy and eflica.
cious remedy.
The practice of throwing garbage and
ashes, as well as other refuse, into back
yards and alleys, and on vacant lots,
should not longer be tolerated. In many
places unsightly heaps OF this character
can be seen, where they ferment and de-
compose, and unless removed before the
approaching warm season will be men
ace 10 public health.

be held in Paterson in September. The
principal objects of the League, as ex-
planned by the Vice President, are to re-
peal such laws as are now on the statute

fanatical character, to secure a reduction
of the present high LICENSE fee, and guard
against an over -increase of the number of
licenses, particularly to dive keepers and
other disreputabie persons. An invitation
is to be extended to The Ministers of the
Gospel to attend, and give full expression

The Lehgh Valley Railways report fol
the quarter ending March 3lst last, filed
with the N. Y. State Railway Commits
sion at Albany, on Tuesday, shows: Gross
earnings from operating $84l, 107; operat-
ing expenses 1901, 653; net earnings $780,
464, fixed charges $3.50, 265; surplus for
the quarter $51, l89. For the correspond
ing quarter last year the road phowed a
deficiency OF $78, 800.
This is the kind of reading those inter
estcd in the Lehigh Valley like TO peruse.
1t indicates, 10 addition the fact that bust
ness generally Is increasing, that the Le-
high Valley management Is improving In
some quarters and that the result is q sur
plus on New York State business instead
Of deficit as heretofore. The Valley is
certainly coming out OF it's "Slough Of Des-
pond"

The New York Tribune OF Mond

The New York Tribune OF Monday
publishes in detail the tax returns of Sec
rotary Kelsey, aud says editorially
"These be hard times for the Hon.
Henry @. Kelsey, Secretary OF State for
New Jersey. Recently he was hauled
before the Senate Committee and COM
PEELED TO admit that he had unlawfully re-
tanned large amounts of the States money,
investing II for his own use and profit ;
but he pleaded in extenuation that he was
able to make good at any time the entire
amount OF his Indebtedness TO the COM
monwealth. Now the other side OF the
shield is turned, and Mr.. Kelsey's sworn
statements on file 10 the Trenton tax of
fee are ruthlessly exposed to the public
gaze. From these 1t appears that for
years be has owed more than his estate
was worth. Truly, Mr.. Kelsey is one OF
the most remarkable men in public life at
the present moment. Has he no fear of
violating the law OF New Jersey on the
subject of perjury2"

cape Stone Breaking.

cape Stone Breaking.
The Hopewel Herald OF Thursday gives
the following account of recent frustrated
attempts of the men at the Work House
below this city, to escape from that insii-
tuition: One day last week as G. W. KEEL
ly, Sup erintendent Of the quarry at the
county farm, was taking a couple Of pris-
oners from the quarry TO the workhouse,
they broke and ran and would no doubt
have made good their escape had they not
unwittingly run directly toward one OF
the guards who had charge OF some pris
oners engaged in making fence. The
guard drew bead on them when they stop
ped and were marched back TO the work
house.
On Sunday morning one Of the guards
who was on the ontside Of the building,
happened to see mans hand holding
something that looked like case knife,
saving away at bar in one window, but
could not identify the man as from the
position be occupied he could see nothing
but the hand. He notified the Warden as
soon as possible, who caused a search OF
the prisoners and their cells 10 be made,
but nothing was found that could be used
as a saw, and as he found IL was out OF the
question TO acertain who il was doing the
saving, he ordered all hands locked up in
their cells for the day. Upon examine
lion IL was found that the bar was cut
about half of.

Noted Inventions that Were Initiated In
This State.
In accepting the invitation 10 partici-
pate in the celebration of the semi GEN.
tennial anniversary OF the founding of the
New Jersey Historical Society at Newark
last week, j. Elfrelh Watkins OF tho
Smithsonian Institution, now curator of
chronological collections 10 the National
Museum at Washington, called attention
TO the following interesting facts, showing
New Jerseys influence upon the introduce
ton aud invention Of the steam engine,
steamship, locomotive and electric tele-
graph in America
First--The first steam engine on the
Western continent was erected at the
Bellcvile copper mines near Newark, in
1868, by Hornblower, sixteen years before
Watt began his Investigations.
Second-The first steamboats, driven by
single and twin screw propclers were
constructed by John Stevens at Hobokcn
in 1902 and 1904.
Third-The "PhGnix," the first steam
boat TO navigate tho ocean, was designed,
constructed and navigated by Jerscymen
John Stevens and his son Robert l..
Stevcns--in 1907 1908.
Fourth--Th first charter for railroad
10 America was granted by the Legisla-
1ure OF New Jersey in 1914 for railroad
from Trenton to New Brunswick, during
the war OF 1872
Fifth-The machinery OF the Savannah.
the first steamship to cross the Atlantic
Ocean, was constructed at the Vail Works,
Spcedwell, near Mornstown, N. J. in 1926.
Sixth-The first steam locomotive in
America to convey human beings on u
railroad track was constructed at Hobo
ken in 1926.
Seventh-The first successful expert
mcnt with the electro magnetic telegraph

by Vail and Morse at Speedwell Works,
near Morristown, In 1888.
The invention and introduction in Amer
ica OF the steam engine and steamship,
the locomotive and the telegraph the
mightiest factors OF modern civilization
were thus due, in great degree, to Jcr-
seymcn.

their goods at true values, 25c. instead OF

of roc, as we do at THE GRAND DEPOT,

OF flooding our town and neighboring
