}. @. Borton, ranehunan who lives in
Colorado about mile west OF Kanorado
lost . head of sheep Tuesday that had
got into a cane field and ate the fodder
from the shock. Mr. Borton has about
400 head Of sheep but only a part Of
them got into the field, and those that
did were driven out before they had
been eating the cane an hour.
It is well known that second growth
cane viii kill live stock, but this is prob
ably the first case in the county where
stock were killed by eating cured cane
IN the shock.

coming much more general in the
immediate future. a great deal of
the Stag has not beeI3 used in the
United States up to tho present time,
but it is beginning tos find its way
into the general markCs Is, and twill
unquestionably become an article of
great agricultural val fe with us as
it now is with the G .rmans. The
Stag produced in thj country is
made at POttstOwn, pennsylvania,
under the patents OffdacOb Reese,
and is known on the NJ S4rket as OdOr-
less phosphate.
The process of manufacture in
brief is as follows: u he molten pig
iron which is to be Aade into steel
is run into the cOnvelf lfer and suit
able quantity of Ii me added, A
blast Of air is forced through the
iron, which burns Op the carbon
and converts the phs ssphorous into
phOsphOric acid. Th4 heat becomes
so intense that the | me melts and
unites with the phoslSOrie acid and
other impurities forIk hing the Stag,
while the iron is cOnvI rted into steel.
The Stag is poured Fl and ground
to a very fine pOwdef and is ready
for market. As might be expected
from the process of md nufacture, the
composition Of the sag is variable.
But it nearly always contains a con-
siderable amount of 4 lee line.
It is expected tha the prepared
Stag will soon be ma sie in Birming-
ham, Alabama. In this case it can be
placed in Florida at ess cost than at
| present. According 10 the German
estimates, more than half the phos-
phoric acid is availa lie, and at pres
ent the Stag is quOtSl at about half
the price of acid phosphate.
A number of exs seriments have
been made with bal sic Stag in this
country by the experiment stations
and in many cases Il Z results obtain
ed with it were better than those
from any other phoS Sphatic material

PREACHER, DAM AND FISH.

"YOu must be on your good be-
havior this evening, George, for the
minister is to take dinner with us" !"
said Hyattsville lady to her worSer
half, as he got home from his office
in the city last Thursday.
"What have you for dinner"
queried the husband.
"Well, I know he is fond of fish,
so bought quite a string of small
river fish and several larger ones
from the dam"
"Pm not much at doing the non
Ors when we have a minister at the
table" said George, "but 1 guess we
can get through with it all right"
Half an hour later they were
seated at the table, and a blessing
had been asked by the minister. A
little nervOusly the head of the fam
ily began dishing out the vegeta-
bles, and, turning to the guest, said:
"Will you have some of the little
river fish, or would you prefer some
of the dam big fish?'
The warning kick under the table
from his wife was unnecessary. He
knew be had blundeled, and cold
beads of perspiration started out on
his forehead.
81 mean," trying to repair the
error, twill you have some of the
dam river fish or some of the big
fish?'
Worse and more of it. His
daughter slyly pulled his coat-tail tc
bring him to his senses.
''That is, would you like some O
the river fish or some of the othel
dam fsh?"
The deep carnation spreading
over the good lady's face didn'
mend matters bit, and, with gasp
he plunged in once more:
"Ahem! Which of the dam fish d,
you prefer, anyway?"-Ex.

BASIC STAG.
Experiment Station Bulletin. }


Basic Stag is obtained as a by-pro-
duct from the manufacture Of steel
by the Bessemer process. It contains
from Is to 25 per cent. of phosphoric
acid. In acid phosphate the phos-
phOric acid which is regarded avail
able is present as mOnOcalcium phos-
phate and as dicalcium phosphate
the first being soluble in water, and
the second being soluble in ammon,
ium citrate. The phosphoric acid
in the untreated Florida rock is in
the form Of tricalcium phosphate
and is supposed to be only very slow.
ly available to plants. On the Other
hand, the greater portion of the
phosphoric acid in basic Stag is in the
form of tetracalcium phosphate. In
this form the phosphoric acid is
largely available on certain soils.
In England, France and Germany
this material has been used for a
number of years as a phosphate ma
,nure with very satisfactory results.
In Germany such great success has
attended its use that at present the
amount consumed is even greater
than that of acid phosphate. In
America basic Stag has been used
somewhat. extensively in Canada

Brother Walton, of the / East

rubbed the wrong way by ia Ie ad-
vertising agency or a fake hdver-
tiser. He remarks in the CURRENT is
sue of his paper: "What catches
many a man is the so-called Id w rate
of some paper. which has absolutely
nothing else to offer as an induce
ment-nO prestige, no circulation, no
nothing, just low rate. 4ter the
advertiser has paid his dow rate''
and>got nothing, he finds thai it was
a high rate. In fact, he pal 4 about
100 per cent. more than tt f thing
was worth" Nothing nearer correct
was ever written. A cheaI adver.
tisement is about as near wSrth no,
thing as anything a business man
can get. The most expensive ad.
vertisement always pays. When
