Bryan.s New Defeat.

 such crazy blanks in his platform.
 The cable brings the story that Mir.

 just handed him the heirloom because they could not resist his plea. Ills

 was forced to return It to the mayor when the people protested. and he gave 1t up. It was as worthless to him then as the nomination which he failed to turn into an election. and he satisfied himself with chair upon which the mighty Togo sat, and he did not seem to bother with the fact that the chair had come out of a saloon. Verify. doth Mir. Bryan play in hard luck. On two occasions he was whip ned In politics; once he failed to grasp the Bennett money when it was at his finEer tips, and now to lose the Togo stool Is adding to his misery.

Where Norway shows Wisdom.

Norway's decision to become mon archy and have a king has doubtless been disappointment to many of those the world over who hold republic the only true form of government. Aut a close inquiry into the case must tend to somewhat reconcile the most ardent republican with the step that has been taken. The value. to Norway as she starts anew her independent ex- istence of the royal connection with Denmark is obvious. But the further point is worth noting that by choosing a king Norway ceases to offer the temptation to the intrigues of unem- ployed princelings that she would have offered had she become a lonely repub- lie. As the case stands it is by the will of the people that Haakon VII has betn elected king of the constitutional monarchy. It is form and not sub stance that the Norwegians have sacri- flced.

Ds.cusssou sf son Fertifity.

Discussion Of SOu Feruuty.
 Two of the sessions of the recent con yenticn of Experiment. Station men n cusSion of this suoI,,t. .Dr. Hopkins of the Illinois station presented pa per on soil fertility in rclatloa to a per manent syst sm If agrs9iiturc. He made the point f;iat how6Fef great the advantages of livestock insbardry, and Of returning the stable manure to the soil, yet 80 per cent If Aarr.s'an farm CTS make their living chiefly from sales of corn, cotton and other special cropssl in which systems of farming the amount of stable manure is entirely inadequate. Therefore he argued that an imperative duty of station men is to advise sys- tenn of farming adapted to the needs of such farmers. having in view not only the immediate returns. but the perma- nent maintenance and improvement or the fertility of the soil. He did not subscribe to the doctrine that in nearly all soils there IS enough plant food, 1T 1t could be rendered available, nor did lie subscribe to Darwin's theory that the work of earth worms in mixing the subsofl with the soil was an important agricultural process. He believes that most farm crops draw practically all of their food from the upper eight inches of soil.
 He showed eonclusively that no H. linois farm growing corn for sale could afford to buy the full amount of nitro ren that corn needs. Instead he urged the Increased use of the leguminous plants to transform the Iimiticss amounts of nitrogen in the air into soil nitrogen.
 Taking the average results of ana- fysis of illinois soils, he calculated that there was enough potash in the upper layer for about 1900 crops Of corn. but only enough phosphoric acid in she up- per seven inches to afford large corn crops for a single lifetime, provided 1t could all be made available. Fhere- fore he argued that in Illinois, and in- deed throughout the greater part of the fJnited States the principal question is to provide an adequate, cheap and in- exhaustibIe supply of phosphoric acid, in other words, to prevent the exhaus- tion of the phosphoric acid of the soil. He said that the supply of American high grade phosphate rock from which acid phosphate is made is sufficient to last only about fifty years. Serious as this prediction. is for Illinois farmers, it is a matter of great moment for cot- ton growers He stated that at pres ent two-thirds of this high grade Amer ican rock is exported to stimulate the agriculture of European countries, while only one-third of it is used in America, and also that our soils are being rapidly depleted of phosphates by shipments to Europe of our corn, cot ton seed meal, and other products. This he considered Americas greatest crime against posterity. In view of this fact the question is raised whether an export tax on phosphate would not be the part of wisdom, however foreign te American systems an export tax may be. ls

of supplying permanent supply or acid is to increase the use of raw phosphate instead of acid phos- phate, since he estimated that the same amount of phosphoric acid lput lnso luble) could be bought in one ton or raw phosphate, costing about $s, as in three tons of low grade acid phosphate, costing five or six times as much. This whole contention while theoretically correct for soils rich in vegetable mat ter and considered chiefly from the standpoint of improvement of the soil, >fs scarcely advisable on soils almost entirely depleted of vegetable matter, as are SC many Southern soils. Dr. Hopkins's views on this point was prac- tfcable for Southern farmers only pro- vided the amounts of raw phosphate were made at rates several times as great as the usual application Of acid phosphate and on soils whose vegetable matter has been largely increased by the growing of leguminous crops. HIS conclusion would be highly advisable if the raw phosphate were employed in connection with stable manure. Ex- periments at the Alabama Station have shown that raw phosphate sometimes gives results equal to more expensive phosphate. Applied alone or only with other commercial fertilizers on average Southern soils. raw phosphate has pTONeQ Tar I0IeTlOI tO dCi0 pnOophhtCs Professor Brooks of Massachusetts called attention to the difference in the fertilizer requirements of different plants, of the special need of phos- phoric acid by turnips and other mem bers of the mustard family; of nitrogen by hay grasses, and of potash by clo- vers.
 Professor Thorne of Ohio presented a carefully prepared paper dealing with Int nf 2niI fQrfitffv inc Ohio Experiment Station. Acid phos- phate and kainit he found to make the soil more acid. The acfdity of certain ohio soils, which is not sufficient to in- jure wheat, is not due, he states, to carbonic acid.
 pr. Lipman of New Jersey called at- tention to recent investigation in which l the amount of nitrogen in the soil was l increased by certain bacteria without growing the Ieguminous crops. Professor Moore of Washington had found five or six times as much potash | in one plant as in another of the same size, and Dr. Wheeler had found that where the yield of turnips was greatest the percentage of phosphoric acid in the crop was greater than was that in tur- nips grown on other soils. His inves- l tigations have shown that soda, for ex- ample that found in salt. may conserve l the soils supply of potash, a point of | minor importance for soils rich in this | material
 | Professdr Thorne, Director of the | Ohio Experiment. Station. who has con. | trol of the main station and q number | of sub-stations, stated that sub-stations are absolutely necessary to the proper l conduct of experiment station work, ant that without them the results of ex. periments would be misleading.

Some Literature on the selection of Seed
 Corn.

Some Literature on the Selection or seed
 Corn.
 Circular No. 4e of the Ohio Experi- ment Station presents an elaborate plan for the breeding of corn under a sys- tenn by which both the male and female parents of eachs ear may be definitely known and under which the possibility of self-fertilization or inbreeding may be entirely excluded. This scheme is of course better suited to the scientific plant breeder who makes the breeding of corn his business than to the farmer unable to spare much time to such de- tails. However. careful study of this paper would be profitable for any far mer and would afford hints for the im- provement of corn by less elaborate and hence slower methods. The ad- dress of the station is Wooster, Ohio.
 Farmers Bulletin No. 225 is entitled 'The Production of Good Seed Corn" and details with the well known prin- cipIes underlying this work. Too much stress cannot be laid upon the need of attention on the part of farmers to the improvement of their seed and the read ing of these bulletins should be a use- full step towards that end.
