''Lawd. Marse Bob, yo' needn't do

accuser; the insinuation was too ia
miliar to be misunderstood.
II there was one thing upon which
EN- prided herself it was her belief
that she was a lady. A typical
Southern darl1y of the "befo' de wah"
type, of uncertain age, short, over
stout, she would waddle along for all
the world like a duck, but with an
inimitable dignity which she alone
could assume.

But Ems besetting sin was an I'M
comfortable impulse to appropriate her
neighbours property, simply because
she believed she possessed a suzerain's
right over everybody and everything.
GarTulous to an extreme, with a
ready answer for everybody, she was
permitted more liberties than would
be tolerated in another of her race.
''How's Mis- Lu' an lille Marse Bob

unaciduIated Phosphates,

Acidulated phosphate fertilizers are
those to which sulphuric acid has
been added to make the phosphates
more readily available. The base to
which the acid is added is always
bone or phosphate rock. An agent
Oh one OF the Chicago packers tells US
that 80 per cent of all the bone phos-
pilates sold is acidula5ed. This is be-
cause the users want a fertilizer
whose phosphorus is available at
once. Yet the producers of phosphate
manures prefer to sell the .unacidu-
lated bone and can sell it cheaper
than the bone that has been treated
with acid. Our leading professors in
agricultural chemistry are advising
farmers to buy their phosphates in
an unacidulated state, whether the
base be bone or rock. Such phos-
phate is in its cheapest form. AS
soon as the manufacturers Of fertil-
izers begin to treat the bone meal or
the or 7und rock they begin to add to
its cost. There is not only the cost of
the acid, bu also cost OF the labor.
Moreover the Gcic is not desirable
element to add to our land, much of
which already has too much acid.
The farmer would do better to apply
mis- phosphate to the land before the
need for it becomes great. If applied
then it need not be accidulated, but
the ground bone or ground phosphate
rock can be left with nature, for her
deliberate process Of rendering it
available. II land needs phosphates
at once, the calculated material must
be used. If the land becomes too
acid, that condition may be changed
by the adding OF lime, either in the
form Of quicklime, or, what is more
desirable, ground lime rock.
