OLD SOLDIERS HAPPY
 AND COMFORTABIE

One of the Confederate Veterans who are finding a refuge in their old age at the Soldiers Home at Mountain Creek. writes the following:
 There has been such an improve ment in everything at the Home since Captain Simpson has been commandant that I feel that I must write you ana tell you of 1t. There is more order and everything is more quiet and peace able and I feel more safe and secure, The Home is Godsend. We get plenty to eat and good beds to sleep on.
 Tell Mrs Falkner that three of the men in the Lizzie Cameron cottage are so fat that they can't get about as well as they did when they first came here.''
 Such letters as the above giving evil dence of true heartfelt appreciation of and wholesome gratitude for the ef- forts made in behalf of our veterans make everything done for them seem douhly worth while. They are balm to>the heart of the noble man whose inspiration the institution was, anG whose daily thoughts are full of wishes and plans for the welfare of the Home

The Nitrogen Problem.

The question OF an economical source
of commercial nitrogen seems likely to
become a serious one in the near.
future. Up to about two years ago
nitrate OF soda MAS the cheapest source
Of nitrogen i'll the markets and il has
been extensively used by fertilizer
manufacturers and farmers who mix
their own fertilizers. Last spring nj
tratc of soda reached the highest point
in the trade ii has for several years,
says tho AgriCulturist.
Early in 1901 nitrate Of soda could b.,
bought for $42 10 Is per ton at whole
sale. but last spring the wholesale price
was $50. At present nitrate of coda il
worth So per ton at wholesale. On ac-
count Of the strong demand for the
meat by products OF the great slaugh-
tcr-houscs. for use as poultry feed. the
price Of organic nitrogen. which comes
mainly from these sources. is likely 10
continue high. Sulphate OF ammonia il
also relatively high.
Until some more abundant and
cheaper, supply OF commercial nitrogen
can be found it bchooycs farmers to do
all they can to increase The home made
supplies. The supply Of phosphOric
acid and potash seems adequate to
meet all demands for many years. and
the prices are fairly constant from wear
to year. 1t has been found by recent
experiments at the New Jersey expert
r:leIit station that on a dairy farm.
where all milk is sold. all the coarse
folders produced are fed on the farm.
and all the grain feeds used are pur-
chased. that the gain to the soil in
nitrogen fertility Is considerably great
er than the gain in pf1oaphOric acid or
potash. This means that where we'll
balanced ration Is fed 10 the dairy herd
he manure can be relied upon chiefly
to supply nitrogen to the crops grown.
Where the amount Of stock kept is
not sufficient to supply manure for all
crops grown. the nitrogen may be
gathered from the air by growing
| leguiEes such as the clovers, cowpeas
and the vctches. and blowing them I'M
der as manure. Here again the nitro
gen of the crop pIowed under needs to
| be supplemented by the adding of some
| commercial form of phosphoric acid
| and potash. AS far as possible the
crops grown for green manuring should
