FERTILIZER TESTS.


A Comparison of Factory and Home
Mixtures of Equivalent Composition.
In the spring of 1897 the Ohio ex-
pertinent station began an experiment
in which several brands of factory mix
ed commercial fertilizers are being COM
pared with home mixtures of tankage,
acid phosphate and muriate Of potash
calculated to contain the same quanti-
ties of ammonia, phosphoric acid and
potash as are claimed by the manufac-
turers for the respective brands of fac
tory mixtures used in the test.
AS stated in a recent bulletin from
the station, the experiment was begun
ON tract of heavy clay land, and the
plan is to continue it several years in a
rotation of wheat, corn and clover, APP
plying the fertilizers to the corn and
wheat. The plan of the test and the re-
suits on the corn crop of 1897 are fully
reported in bulletin 80, which shows
that in the first crop of the fest the
home mixed fertilizers produced results
quite equal to those yielded by the fac
tory mixtures, although the cost of the
home mixtures was from So to $12 per
ton less than that of the factory mix
lures.
Following out the plan of the test,
one of the sections of land set apart for
it was sown to wheat last fall, the fer
tilizers being repeated on the same plots
and in the same order in which they
had been used on the corn. The wheat
was sown late and suffered severely
from the winter, the yield on the I'M
fertilized plots being reduced to less
than two bushels per acre. The increase
on this unfertilized yield given by the
several fertilizers is shown below.
The factory mixtures were used at
the uniform rate of 200 pounds per
acre, but it was possible to duplicate
their composition in essential constitu-
ents with considerably less than 200
pounds in most of the home mixtures.

Moslems are forbidden to drink wines
or spirits, but in Tunis they contrive to
reach the same ends by smoking prepa-
rations of hemp flowers. The milder
kind is called kif, and if used in noder-
alton has no more effect than wine, but
the concentrated essence, known as
ehira, produces intoxication as quickly
as raw spirits and leads to delirium

A Stone That Grows.

A West Gouldsboro (Me. man tells
queer story about stone that grows.
1t is an egg shaped, f1inty looking rock,
which he picked up in a cove near his
home over 30 years ago. Then it
weighed about 10 pounds and from its
odd shape was kept in the house and on
the doorstep as a curiosity. AS the
years passed the stone increased in size.
Six years ago it weighed 40 pounds,
and now it tips the scale at IS pounds.

GUS witnesses to back him up.--Ex-

Angora Goats.

Considerable interest seems to exist
just now in Angora goats, the profit
there is in raising them, etc. Some de-
tails Of the business are given by Texas
correspondent of The Wool Record and
Textile News as follows:
''The best Angora hocks yield about
four pounds per head per annum where
they are kept in large focks but they
will yield more . only a few head can
be kept i'll a bunch We always shear
early in the spring and early in the fall.
Shin oak country is pretty good for
them, but a live oak country affords
more feed in the winter if the oaks are
not too tall, but the falling leaves of
large trees give much food in the spring.
"Angora goats are scarce, or, rather,
they are hard to obtain, because so
many wish to buy. and hear of none
for sale. The cheapest way to care for
them is to keep them unherded in wolf
proof pastures. They can easily be
trained to come home by feeding lit
tie and by sailing regularly. They are
easily handled after one learns how to
handle them. The best market for mo-
hair know of is in New York, where
several commission men sell it to the
factories.
ut is difficult to say what it will
cost per head to attend to Angora goats
properly, but any one going into the
business will soon find that they pay as
well as or better than any other kind of
live stock. Fine goats seldom bear
twins They pay quite we'll enough by
raising one young one each year."
