Commercial Fertilizers for Irish Po-
tnfOea.

Experiment has pretty conolusively es-
tablished the fact that commercial fertiliz-
ers can be used to greater advantage on
the Irish potato crop than can barn-yard
manure says an exchange. The use Of
barn-yard manure, especially freshly made
manure, almost invariably produces a
scabby crop of tubers. There are on the
market specially prepared Irish potato fer
tilizers which usually give good results
when used with liberal hand, say from
500 20 1000 pounds to the acre. If such a
fertilizer cannot be had, then use a fer
tilizer made UP of
300 pounds of nitrate of soda.
GOO pounds of cotton seed meal.
800 pounds of acid phosphate.
300 pounds of muriate of potash.
1900 pounds.
If more than 500 pounds to the acre is
applied, let it be spread broadcast over
the field, and be narrowed in. Five hun
bred pounds or less may be applied in
the rows, and should be well mixed with
the soil by running a cultivator through
the row before planting.

PHALEN PARK VALUES.
Board of Public WOrAs to Consider
Them Tomorrow.

The assessment for Phalen park will be
taken up by the board of public works to-
morrow afternoon and the owners Of
property to be taken for the park will
be heard as to the value of the property.
The last time an assessment was made
by the board of public works the 127 acres
We're valued by the board at a trifle over
81, 900 per acre. The interest and other
expenses of the assessment made the to-
tai amount to be raised Sl37, 900, of which
81, 00G was paid from the park board fund.
This left $4,000 to be raised by assess
ment on the property benefited. An APP
peal was taken to the district court and
Judge Bum set aside the assessment.
The decision of the lower court was sus-
tanned by the supreme court. Under the
present assessment the park board has
reduced the acreage III the proposed park
to about 120 acres, and it is expected that
the owners will place the value of the
land to be taken at q much less figure.
IN fact, President Wheelock, Of the park
board, has expressed the opinion that
with the $4,000 which is available in the
park fund, the total amount to be rails
ed by assessment will not exceed $4,000.
The only matter to be considered at
the meeting tomorrow is the value Of the
land to be taken.

America has become a land of nervous

against the dietetic health laws of ma
ture.
Only outdoor exercise in a cold climate
would enable vigorous individuals of our
species to digest the viands forced upon
alimentary organs enfeeb.ed by sedentary
occupations" writes DIR. Felix Oswald
Brain workers must have different food
than dav laborers because brain work
uses up paris of the brain and nerve CEN
ters, while physical labor uses up other
parts of the body A food for brain
workers has been prepared by scientific
food makers and called Grape Nuts 1t
Is a pure, natural food made from select

the natural phosphate of potash and 9TH

building and repairing the brain and
nerve centers. This food is skillfuIly
cooked at the factory and is ready to be
served instantly either cold with cream,
or as a hot breakfast dish with hot milk
or cream poured over it. All first-class

in the city last night on his way to Chi
cago and the East. He has recently
made en- extended trip into the country
lying east and north of Lewiston and
states that there is considerable activity
there in mining and farming lands, owing
to the surveys which have been recently
made through the Bitter Root mountains,
indicating that line of road will be built
from Missoula through to Lewiston,

ABOUT TO SUI SURETIES
CITY ATTORNEY WILL DEMAND
CITY DEPOSIT FROM GERMANIA
BANK RECEIVERS
City VIII Claim That 1t Is a Pre-
ferred Creditor, and Will Follow
the Demand, When Refused, by n
Suit.

The corporation attorneys office has
prepared demand which will be served
on the receiver of the Germania bank
tomorrow requesting the return Of $751;
1858, which the city had on deposit in
the institution when 1t closed 1t Is not
supposed that the receiver will do any,
thing Of the kind as under the law the
city stands in the same position as other
creditors of the bank. The formal de-
mand, however, Is necessary in order to
commence action against the surettes on
the bond given the city by the bank.
The bond given by the bank and ap-
proved May IA, 1898, was in the sum of
500, 900, with Theodore H. Menk, John B.
Herman, John Douglass, John K Elm, Jo-
seph Haag, Albert Spangenberg, W.
Schornstein, P. M. Kerst, Gustave Will
Illus and E o. Holman, each Of the sure
ties justifying in the sum Of $1,000. In
order to make 1t a certainty that the
city would be protected In its deposit
the bondsmen were given collateral in
Guiding notes and mortgages, so that
in the event of closing of the tnsti-
tuition the city would get its coin and
the bondsmen would also be secured.
1t is understood that a part of the
collateral held by the bondsmen has been
collected and the amount is now in the
hands of the bondSmen. The point has
been raised, however, that the city should
be obliged to take its chances with the
other creditors and wait for its $21, 900 un-
til the usual dividends are paid. 1t is
the intention of the legal department,
however, to force, If possible, the pay
ment of the money by the bondsmen
and as a preliminary step the notice to
the receiver will be filed.
