SOFT COPE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

proval of the Commissioners, issue per-
mits therefor; provided. that in so do
ing 1t shall be after due inspection

APPARENT EXTORTION
NIPPED IN THE BUD
District the Victim But for Superin-
tendent Stutler'S Vigilance.

An apparent attempt at extortion on
the part OF the local agent for we'll
known sewing machine company was
frustrated yesterday by Superintendent
Stutler, of the District Street Cleaning
Department. 1t appears that on Sep
tember one of the drivers in the en-
ploy of the Street Cleaning Department
became intoxicated and ran his wagon
into the delivery wagon of the sewing
machine company, damaging the latter
and two machines which were In II. -
soon as Superintendent Stutler ascer-
tanned that the fault lay entirely with
the driver, he asked the agent of the
company TO state the amount of dam
ages incurred.
After obtaining estimates the agent
declared that sS5 would pay for every
thing This was thought to be exor-
bitant by Superintendent Stutler, and
he instituted an Independent investiga-
tion. which resulted in the agent agree
ing to accept s29. in full liquidation of
the damages. The agent, over his own
signature, admitted that this would am
ply pay for all repairs TO the wagon
and both machines. The Commissioners
have not had an opportunity to act in
the premises.

Where HuntSmen
Bag Their Game.

Charles Smith bagged four dozen
reed birds Thursday on the marshes
along the Eastern Branch near the
Benning bridge. Because of the scarcity
OF reedies this season this is considered
q large killing.
William Wagner, the well-known
gunner, and Dr. Hemming several days
ago killed 800 reed birds on the Patux-
tent marshes, directly west of Marlboro.
Frank Bell and his brother probably
hold the record for the biggest bag of
ortolan on the local marshes secured in
one day. On Labor Day they brought
in five dozen, all of them fat birds.
A number of amateur sportsmen are
hunting daily in the marshes south of
Alexandria. Reed birds and soldier
blackbirds abound. Leo T. Downey and
c. Harrison Smith went cunning yes
terday just north of the old Hunting
Creek bridge and killed a number of
fine reed birds and blackbirds.
Lieutenant Smith, of the Alexandria
police force, Thursday last went on a
cunning trip to He'll Hole, in the marsh
es south of New Alexandria He killed
twenty-one sora and a number Of reed
birds.

Information for Fishermen

Joseph Burns, a well-knOwn fisher
man, who resides near Potomac Mary
land, caught seven good-sized bass yes
terday afternoon on the Potomac, near
Cabin John Bridge. Those caught yes
terday. Mr.. Burns said, are the best
which have been landed in that vicinity
this season.
Several days ago. some good catches
Of rock fish were made, just below the
bridge.
Alexandria fishermen report some fine
bass caught off Shepherds Wharf, op-
posite that city with hook and line.
William E. Eberhart yesterday caught
bass weighing two and a half pounds.
The condition of the Potomac is be-
coming more favorable to fishermen and
much good luck Is reported in conse-
quenee. Bass and white perch are said
TO be biting well and the continued
clearing of the water promises much
good luck. The muddy condition of the
water in the past week has permitted
little sport.

CHEMISTRY OF SOILS
AS RELATED TO CROPS
Exhaustive investigation Completed
by the Government.

The Secretary OF Agriculture an
nounces that the Bureau OF Soils has just
finished an exhaustive investigation of
the chemistry of soils as related TO the
yield of crops. The results indicate
that practically all soils have sufficient
available plant food for normal crop
yields, and that this supply is constant
ly maintained through natural agencies
in the soils dissolving the material of
the soil grains.
The difference in yield is dependent
upon the condition and kind of cultiva
tion and rotation of crops. maintaining
certain necessary physical conditions in
the soil, under which this plant food
can be used by the crop. A bulletin has
Just gone to press giving the details of
the investigation, and discussing the in
fiuence of climate. texture of soil, ro-
tation, fertilizers, and soil manage
ment upon the yield OF crops. The work
is based upon analyses by new and ex-
ceedingly sensitive methods, by which
the amount of plant food in the soil
moisture itself. which is the great nu-
tritive solution for the support of crops.
has been determined and not by digest
ing the soils III acids which attack the
inert mineral matter OF the soils.
While the conclusions appear to be in
conflict with the opinions held for so
many years by agricultural chemists, they
are in strict conformity with the expert
ence of good farmers in ell countries,
and with actual facts which have long
been established by agricultural chem
lists. The fertility of the soil is thus
shown to be due 10 physical causes
which control the supply of water and
plant food which it contains, as the soil
moisture in all cases appears to be about
the same in composition and concentra-
tion. The fertility is therefore con-
trOlled by a physical cause. and chem
ical examination OF soil cannot be ex-
pected to indicate the yield of a crop.
1t is believed that a simple physical
method Will be devised for determining
the relative fertility of soils.
