In 1896 and again in 1900 Calr Schur2

standard. He wrote columns about
our national honor" etc, but his
opinion failed to move the courageous
Parker, who cast his ballot on both
occasions for Bryan electors and l6 TO

declared for gold and Schurz calls his
action courageous. Carl may have
many STRONG points, but consistency
il not one of them.

PEACE CONFERENCE.
Notes From Various Papers on In
ternational Peace and Arbitra-
tion Societies.

Hon. Richard Bartholdt has accord
ed to Mr.. Wm. o. Mcdowell much
recognition for his distinguished
service" as Mr.. Bartholdt expresses
1t, in "the good cause of the Inter-
parliamentary Union"
The preparations for the Conference
of the Interparliamentarys Union,
which is to meet at st. Louis, Septem.
Der 1914, are well advanced From
one to two hundred delegates are ex-
pected from abroad. The delegates
from over the sea will be.entertained
by the United States Group from the
time of their arrival at New York
until their departure. Their program
includes visit to Washington and
reception by the President. The
opening session of the Conference at
st. Louis will be given to addresses
by representative delegates from the
Groups in different countries. The
subjects which have already been put
down for discussion include: 6'Pacific
Conventions, Reduction of Arma.
ments as Result.of the Actual Situa-
tion Brought About by the Recent
Arbitration Treaties" "a Revision
of the Geneva Convention, particu-
larly from the Point of sView of Ex-
plosives which Expose Neutrals to
Danger" The Conference will also
discuss the matter of the calling of
a Conference Supplementary to that
at The Hague, with the View of the
Generalization of Obligatory Arbitra-
tion," the Affirmation of the Right
of the non-Signatory Powers to Ad-
here to The Hague Convention, +"
"The Union of the American States
with those already Parties to The
Hague Convention and "The Study
of the Rights and Duties of Neutrals."
These subjects are all of immediate
practical Importance, and their full
and free discussioni ought to make
the Conference one of great interest
and value.

Lime as a Fertilizer.

\ SO-GdIled 'nydrateu' lime, maue
under processes upon which patents
are claimed, is being pushed upon the
market under the claim that 1t is d
fertilizer and that, because of its pecu
liar manufacture, it will produce bet
ter results than ordinary lime wher
applied 20 the soil. The price asked
for this lime is usually about ten dol
lars per ton.
A sample of this lime was procured
last fall direct from the manufactur
ers by the Ohio Experiment Station
and used at the rate of ton to the
acre on land that was being prepared
for wheat. At the same time an ordi'
nary builders lime, ground into a
meal and costing, delivered at Woos.
ter in car lots, S462 per ton, was used
in the same quantity and on adjoining
plots OF land, the preparation of the
land and the seeding being Identical
for both kinds of lime. In the spring
the whole tract was sown to clover,
and good stand was obtained.
The result of this test has been that
in every case the limited plots have
produce6 less wheat than those not
limited, there being but little differ
ence in the reduc tion in yield follow
ing the two kinds of lime. Following
are the average yields:
Bushels per acre.

100 lbs fertilizer, common lime (av ?
plpls) ss''.'. ..,''''..,..'.'.',' .',''.2b'OH
The clover now shows a fairly uni
form stand on all the plots. Where
no fertilizer was used the lime has had
no apparent effect upon the clover,
but where fertilizer was used the
growth OF clover is somewhat stronger
on the lined than on the unlimited
plots, there being no preceptible diff
ference between the two kinds of lime
in this respect.
In other tests made by this Station
where the common lime has been used
on corn, that being followed by oats
and the oats by wheat, seeded TO clo-
yer, the lime has produced a very
slight erfect on the cereal crops un-
less manure or fertilizer had been
previously used and even on clover
the gain mas been comparatively small
until the land is first manured or fer
tilted; out where manure or fertil-
izers carrying both PHOSPHORUS and
potassium have been literally en-
ployed the effect of lime is to produce
a most luxuriant growth of clover on
land where, without lime, clover re-
fuses 10 grow, no matter how liberal
the mannring.
present time may be condensed into
the following statements
j. Lime does not take the place of
fertilizers or manure and the farmer
who is led to use 1t will be disappoint-
ed.
2 Lime Is indispensa BILE to the
growth OF clover on some Ohio soils
but before 1t can materially benefit
the clover it must be preceded by lib
eral manuring, or fertilizing with
materials carrying both phosphorus
and potassium.
3. Lime may produce an increase
of cereal crops on some soils, but only
when used In connection with judicious
manuripg or fertilizing.
4. We have - yet no reason to be-
lieve that the so-called FERTILIZER
lime" now being pushed upon our
market possesses any virtues not
found In common lime.

The unexpected in the way of arbi-
tration conventions has this time
happened. On the 18th of July the
Foreign Office in London announced
that an arbitration treaty had that
day been signed by LordI Lansdowne,
the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and
the German Ambassador to Great
Britain.
This announcement took practically
the entire civilized world by surprise,
the English people as well as others.
A similar agreement with Portugal
or Switzerland or Belgium, or with
any one of half dozen other govern
ments, would have been taken. almost
as a matter of course after the trea-
ties signed previously by the British
government with France, Italy and
Spain. But only few people-there
were few-had surmised that Ger
many and Great Britain were in any
wise disposed to bind themselves by
any kind of arbitration bond.
This agreement has clearly been
brought about by the influence of
King Edward, who recently visited
the German Emperor at Kiel. He
has once more shown himself to be
justly entitled to the epithet Peace
maker" now so frequently applied to
him. His service in the matter is the
more noteworthy as he has led rather
than followed the British people in
the matter

A CHARMING WOMAN.

There are many qualities that contribute 20 the

there is a certain udescribahie charm that seems
