THE PALACE WAITED.
Builders Suggestion That Chang

A Builders Suggestion That Chang
ed the Plans of a Pope.
AT time when there was great suf-
fering among the people from lack Of
food and when famine in its worst
form was threatened Pope Alexander
vi had made arrangements for the
erection of magnificent palace. The
best architects had been employed, and
the plans had been submitted and ac-
cepted. and an accomplished builder
had been sent for to come from Venice,
a man whose work had won for him re-
nown and who was known to be Just
and upright man.
The builder had arrived, and at an
appointed time he waited upon his ho-
liness to receive the plans and make his
estimates. "rhere is one thing yet to
be DONE" said the pope. There has
been no proper inscription or legend
thought of to be placed over the main
entrance of the palace. 1t should be
put above the great gate. You have
had experience. Do you think of an
inscription that would be appropriate"
''If your holiness would pardon me
for the liberty, might suggest one
most appropriate at this time"
"You are pardoned in advance" said
the pope, smiling. "Now, what shall it
be-?
Sovereign pontiff, let it be thus
Command that these stones be made
breadv"
The pope was visibly and deeply af-
fected. He paid the builder munificent-
ly for his expenses of coming and go
ing, and instead of building his palace
he fed the hungry ones of his children.

THAT reminds me indirectly" said
the other drummer, "of yarn heard
lately over in South Carolina told at
the expense of a peculiarly guileless
old chap who keeps little crossroads
store up in the mountains. Everybody
wears boots in that part of the country,
and, as the story goes, the old fellow
had been buying his stock for many
years of a manufacturer in a big city
not 1000 miles away. He paid Sc
pair for his boots when he first went
into business, and the maker had con-
tinued charging him the same figure
year after year regardless of the fact
nat the market price had been steadily
going down. The old storekeeper, Sc
cluded from the world in his mountain
home, never dreamed that he vas be-
ing feeced and took pride in paying bis
bills with clocklike punctuality.
AT last, when that grade of boots
was quoted at $3.50, the manufacture
er's conscience smote him, and he de-
cided to make amends. So he wrote
the country merchant, saying that
there had Jeen a considerable decrease
in the price of leather. and he was glad
TO state that he would be able to let
him have the last lot of boots he order
ed at $4 pair. This, he added, was q

personal esteem and the fact that he
had been regular customer for such a

No Mystery About Politics.

There is nothing peculiar or mysteri-
GUS about politics or international rela-
tions, says Henry D. Sedgwick, Jr., in
The Atlantic. When two or three men
live within hail of one another, polit-
ical relations begin. Politics begin
when men realize that other men are
forces to be considered. Men meet,
bow; each drives his wagon to the
right; one sells, another buys; they
fence their acres in. They meet to-
gether to chop down a tree, to mend the
road, to regulate county matters with
the next community.
Whether they like it or not, politics
have begun: ethical relations have be-

vine known, and will quickly relieve and

Blackberry cordial is the proper remedy

Angora Goats.-It is said that this coun-
try imported the skins of 16, 266. 621 goats
and kids in the year ending June so, 1898
But the Angora goat or it's cross upon
our common goat, has other value bes lie
its skin The fleece is about as valua BILE
as that of a sheep,although weighing less,
as it sells at higher price per pound.
The flesh of the kid or that of young doe
or wether is pronounced equal TO the best
lamb, while of the older animals it is said
to be as good as Southdown mutton. They
seem to thrive in all sections from Texas
TO Manitoba. but are especially adapted to
a mountainous country. and are much bet
ter at destroying bushes and shrubs They
are also able to defend themselves against
dogs.
Why Oats Are Exhaustive.-Ther are
two reasons why the oat crop is exraus-
tive. One is that its grain contains more OF
the mineral and heterogeneous elements that
are needed by crops than any other grain
excepting wheat. Besides, the oat y ant h s

through the soil and search out this plant
food within the short space of 10 10 10
days. Farther North the oat crop can be
sown, and ready to harvest in 100 days
from the time the seed is put into the
ground The oat roots have to search out
all the available nutriment within their
reach within this short time. Winter wheat
makes a start in the fall, then goes into
its winter sleep under a blanket Of snow
or fast locked in frozen soil. and is then
ready to make further growth in sill

Sulphur on Soil.

Sulphur as a preventive of potato scab
is receiving much attention at present.
The Rhode Island station presents an in.
teresting summary of its observations on
the after effect of sulphur when applied
to soils for this purpose:
Sulphur employed in considerable guam
titles upon soils which are acid or which
contain but limited excess of basic in
gradients is capable of causing much sub
sequent injury to crops, the extent of the
same being greatest upon acid or neutral
soils.
The application of sulphur to soils for
preventing potato scab regardless of the
character of the reaction of the soil is
liable to occasionally cause much injury
Sulphate of ammonia, which has a high
manurial value by virtue of it's nitrogen,
gives promise of being far more satisfac-
tory and economical than flowers of sui
phur as a means of lessening the tenoen-
cy to scab in contaminated soils which
are favorable to the growth of the fun
gus.
The ammonia of the sulphate of ammo
mia is changed to nitro acid, and this, to-
gether with the sulphuric acid thereby
liberated. decomposes carbonat ties, forming
compounds which are taken up by plants
or gradually removed by teaching. This
process decreases the basicity of the soil
and thereby the tendency to promote
SCaD. Iue large amount OF Sulpnuflc dclQ
obtained from the sulphate of ammonia
as a residual product may be considered
as costing nothing, since the ammonia re-
turns its cost by its action as a manure.
Sulphur, on the other hand, is much
more expensive than sulphate of ammo
MIA and has little if any even indirect
manurial value.
Sulphate of ammonia, particularly if
used in connection with muriate of pot
ash upon soils where the tendency to
scab is great. is capable of wonderfully
improving them in this particular. To ac-
complish this wood ashes, lime, basic
! Stag, stable manure and undissolved phos-
| pilates should be avoided Acid phos-
phate should in such cases be used as a
| source Of phosphoric acid.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1900-02-05

An Unbalanced or incomplete fertilizer
is one which does not supply all three
of the elements of plant food, phosphoric
acid. nitrogen and sometimes material
may furnish one or even two of the es-
sentlal ingredients, but If all three are
not present the mixture may be regarded
as incomplete, and what the plant fails
to find in the fertilizer it must look for
in the soil with the result that if the
soil does not contain il, the crop has to
suffer accordingly. On the other hand, if
the ingredient which is missing in the
fertilizer is present in the soil, 1t will
gradually become exhausted through con-
tinued dropping, and the yield naturally
falls off in proportion.
1t is an established fact in fertiizing
that one element of plant food cannot re-
place another. Each has its special func-
ton to perform. To illustrate: If there
is enough phosphoric acid and nitrogen
in the soil to produce a 200-bushel crop
of Irish potatoes, and only enough potash
to make a 100-bushel crop. the yield would
not go above the latter figure. The ele-
ment present in the smallest proportion is
what regulates the extent of the yield.
In other words, we meet, in feeding the
plants, the old maxim, "A chain is not
stronger than its weakest link"
From what has been said, it can be seen
at once that it is both wise and econo-
mical to feed crops like animals No one
would think of giving a horse or a COW
one-sided food and expect to get a full
days work from it. Every hard working
animal must have proper food and plenty
of It.
As said before, the three ingredients to
make up a complete food for plants are
phosphoric acid nitrogen and potash.
Manufacturers embody all three in their
mixtures. and the proportions vary TO
suit the crops, some requiring more of
one than of another.
The principal point to bear ia mind is
that one-sided fertilization seldom. if ever,
pays in the long run. 1t is much easier
to keep up the fertility of soils by using
what is needed annually to meet the de-
mands of the growing crop than to build
up land which has become run down or
exhausted. George K Wilson
