Making Vegetables Tender.

Many people have notion that a
black soil must of necessary be a
-ich one. But on the contrary, it
may be almost devoted of nitrogen,
and so stands in need Of some ferti-
ilizer. Whilst it is true that garden
soils in general have sufficiency of
both potash and phosphoric acid in
them, the chances are that these
two food materials are to a GER
tain extent locked up"-that is,
they are not Immediately available
to the plant, and are only taken out
by slow degree. Therefore, the am
ateur gardiner will find that the
best all around fertilizer for him to
buy is one with an abundance of nj
trogen, and moderate qualities of
the other two substances. Ofcourse
for large operations, special COM
pounds of fertilizers are an economy
and, while the same things holds
good in theory on the small scale,
yet in practice as the amount involv-
is so little, wiser to have one all
round fetilizer. Succulent vegeta-
bles practically will thrive on nitro
gen. 1t makes them grow rapidly
and that means tenderness. Potash
is used to improve the quality. Phos-
phoric acid helps to build the tissue
of the plant. What fertilizer con-
tains can always be ascertaincd by
reading the analysis which much &C.
company it. Look only for those
three terms. Don't regard anything
else. How much to use? Of course
the answer largely depends on the
grade of fertilizer. Stable manure

HOW TO KEEP FISH ALIVE.
French Naturalists Discover a Plant

Purity OF Water.

Consul General Richard Guen-

in the old days plain Dick"
Guenther. of Wisconsin, writes of
Il report that the French natural
lists Billiard and Bryant have made
a discovery with reference to keep
ing fish alive which may be of prac-

preserving the water in which it
exists in a state of great purity
for an almost unlimited period.
The little plant possesses also
the advantage of multiplying rap
idly and thrives in almost all kinds
of fresh water. To the naked eye
the presence of these algae is no
ticeable through the brilliantly
green color of the water, provided
it contains a large number of them.

EQUAL TO NINE ELEVATORS
Moving Stairway, or Exalator, Fully
Tested in a Holiday Rush
in New York.

The moving platform, applied
either as a sidewalk over bridges
or as a stairway, is attracting the
close attention of experts. In re-
gard to the former use, exact fig
ures conclusively established the
extraordinary carrying capacity
of the moving platform as com.
pared with a train of street cars,
AS well as the smaller amount OF
current needed to haul the load.
In like manner moving stair
ways or exalatOrs, as they are
called, are far more efficient than
elevators in handling large
crowds in department stores and
similar places of business. In
two large stores in New York and
Boston during the recent holiday
season careful count of the num-
Der of people carried by the exala'
tors and the elevators was made.
The results went to show that Il
single exalator was equal in eff
liciency to eight or nine elevators,
Furthermore, as the ascending
and descending crowds are mar
shaded by the exalatOrs and never
allowed to come into conflict, the
advantage in preventing confu-
sion and congestion is great and IN
striking contrast to the conditions
attending the handling of similar
crowds by ordinary elevators
The exalator assuredly has CONT
to stay.

SENATOR McCREARY
Announces That he Will Vote
For Denatured AL
COhOi Bill.

Mr.. r. E. Settle is in receipt OF a
letter from Senator Jas. h. Nc
cCreary announcing that he will vote
fer the denatured alcohol bill, which
as recently passed the National
House of representatives and is now
,,cending in the Senate. Denatured
alcohol is alcohol that has under
ne chemical process which de-
-slroys its medicinal properties and
renders its unfit for drinking pur-
poses. Experiments have proven
that olcohol surpasses gasoline as a
fuel and light producer. but its use is
practically out of the question on
account of the heavy duties upon the
liquid. The proposed bill provides
that alcohol which has been chemical
ly treated or denaurted, shall be put
on the free list thereby rendering
it much cheaper and bringing it in
completing with coal oil and gaso-
line. The the bill if passed will have
a greater effect on the Standard Oil
Company than any measure yet pro-
posed as farmers can erect distiller-
les and manufacture their surplus
corn into fuel and no combine can
secure control of the industry.
