INSANE PATIENT RETURNS

John Fraser, former inmate of the
Steilacoom asylum, yesterday morning re-
turned to that institution and announced
to the authorities that he had come to
pay them visit. He came to Tacoma
stop and in his attempt to reach the
asylum he became lost and spent the night
in the woods. On reaching there he was
found to be in a wretched condition physi-
cally and mentally.
As soon as Fraser arrived his relatives
in Seattle were notified and some of them
were at Steilacoom last night, when an
examination was made of Fraser's mental
condition. Judge W. o. Chapman decided
to recommit Fraser to that institution.
1t is a somewhat rare occurrence for a
lunatic to voluntarily give himself up to
the asylum authorities.

BOATS MANNED
BY INCOME ETENTS

In a company of marine men, speaking
of the loss of the Clallam's lifeboats, the
startling statement was made that there
was not boat on the Sound that car
ried a crew of men competent to handle
small boat in sea, the very place
where they would be needed. Aside from
the chief officers and engineers, the crews

they can run a truck and know how to

there is ever a drill in lowering and
manning the lifeboats, it usually takes
place in smooth water, where any Junk
head could pull an oar. When catas-

Toward the close of the reign OF

Bone Meal as q Fertilizer.

Mr.. Groome, of Warrenton, Va, re-
Gently wrote the Bureau of Soils, Of
Washington for an explanat ton Of the
reason for the long continued appre-
cable benefit derived from the appli-
cation of raw bone meal as 4 fertil-
1zer: The following is the reply re-
celved from the soil chemist, and will
no doubt be read with interest:
In reply to your favor of the 10Th
INST, L would say that we recognize
that such fertilizers as bone meal will
continue to exercise an influence over
crops Tor considerable length of
lime. But taking fertilizers in gen.
eral, and especially the more soluble
ones, it seems to be general law that
they prove most beneficial in the in
ltlal stages Of plant growth before the
plants have developed a large and Wig
orous root system and are, in a sense
better adapted to looking out for their
own food supplies.
Raw bone meal is essentially cal
cum phosphate, and is slightly solu-
Die Itself. But it is one of a class of
substances which is readily acted upon
and decomposed by water, forming in
this case, lime and phosphoric acid:
and while the lime goes into solution
to but very slight extent, h fairly
large amount of phosphorie acid is dis
sclved. The amount that will be lis
solved depends largely on the proper
ton of solid phosphate to the volume
of water. While it takes some DAYS
for the solution to dissolve all the
phosphoric acid it can, the larger part
is taken up in few hours. Carbon
dloxlde, which is always present in
the soil and soil mixture. helps to dis
solve phosphoric acid from calcium.
