packing is the farmers or packing
houses character. The Legislature of
the State of Florida, at its last session,
passed a law that made box of a
certain kind and dimension a legal box
for packing oranges. At the same
time, if the first is constitutional
(Which we very much doubt, it would
have been good business policy to have
passed a law making it an offence
punishable by fine and Imprisonment
for the false branding of a crate of
tomatoes or other vegetables. Every
farmer and .fruit-grOwer should use
his utmost endeavor to- put out the
best possible pack to raise the stand
ard rather than degrade it.
+ This is one of the reasons why we
have been and are now in favor of
cooperative packing houses, under the
management of capable, careful SUI
perintendent. Managed in this way,
the pack would be uniform and a
standard pack would be reached, and
the average price would be higher
than under the present system.

COST OF LEGUMINOUS NITRO
GEN.
Our good friend DIR. Chamberlain, of
the Ohio Farmer says that he paid
this spring $50 for clover seen, and
S17 for commercial fertilizers. He
thinks that clover will trap some nj
trOgen from the air. but it will get
more from the soil. and will get all of
it's prosphOric acid and potash from
the soil. He adds that one of his cor
respondents implies that all the manu-
rial of alfalfa is clear gain to the farm.
whereas about nine-tenths of it came
from the soil and if returned to the
soil is simply returned to it. ''ClOver
and alfalfa and cOwpea advocates
often forget this and forget also the
considerable cost of the seed of all the
nitrogen gathering plants.'' So far as
the editor of the Practical Farmer is
concerned-and he may well be clas-
sed as one of the 'cowpea' advocates
he has never failed to call at
tentiOn of farmers to the fact that
while legumes will get their nitrogen
from the air, they are the greediest
and life-and that they do not get
these things from the air. But the
point in DIR. Chamberlain's argument
is the cost of the nitrogen we get
through the aid of the Iegume crops
We have insisted that we get it free
of cost. 1t is true that the 1egumes
will get some nitrogen from the SOIL
but that they will get more from the
soil than from the air is not the case
unless on soil very rich in nitrates, in
which case they make less effort, or
have less aid in getting the aerial nitro
gen, for in a soil Astounding i'm organic
nitrogen there is apt to be an acidity
harmful to the growth of the nitrogen
fixing bacteria. But on a soil where
clover thrives well we feel sure the
plants will get more nitrogen from the
air than from the soil. We believe
too, that the roots left in the soil after
moving the hay will contain as much
if not more, nitrogen than the crop
took from the soil. Then, say we get
two tons of clover hay, this hay will
contain S2.2 pounds of nitrogen taken
from the air. We feed this hay and
from the feeding make but the actual
cost of the hay. Then we should, in
the manure, recover at least IS per
cent. of the nitrogen, worth 1921. 1t
looks to us as though that nitrogen
has really been gotten without cost,
and we believe it has, for a good feed
er should get more, or some profit from
the feeding above actual cost. In the
feeding, too, the greater part of the
phOsphoric acid and potash will be
returned to the soil

state today is the fight being

A good many of Our exchanges
are referring to Goddard as a
"despicable william" and mora
monstrosity. The Herald is in
no sense a champion of Goddard
but he is at least entitled to the
truth. Aside. from his having
lived double life he was not a
bad sort. He was strictly
temperate man and used neither
liquor nor tobacco. In civic af-
fairs his influence was always on
the side of the moral forces of
the community and as justice Of
the peace he was fair and honest.
He was exceedingly erraticin his
nature and made no intimate
friends. That he acted the part
of william in his family life is
evident; but as a citizen his re-
cord III Turner county is good.

The Iroquois Chief has ex-
planned to the satisfaction of
most every one that our sta'e
officials do not ride on passes and
draw mileage too. Now we have
another proposition that we
would like to have Bro. Halliday
tackle. 1t was stated by the
Huronite and widely quoted that
an anti-pass' law would cost
the state S5o.0oo in mileage for
state officials. Isn't that esti-
mate pretty high? Let us get at
the truth of this matter. That
is all we care about.
