Tests conducted by the Indiana ex7
pertinent station at differnt places in
the state for number of years past
have shown that it will usually pay
we'll to use fertilizer on wheat.
While different soils, or even the
same soil under different methods of
treatment, require somewhat different
fertilizers, and about the only sure
way of determining the exact needs
of a particular SOIL is by a series
of fertilizer tests on the same, it
may be said in general way that
the wheat soils of the state are usual
ly benefited by all three of the es-
sential fertilizing elements, viz, nj.
trogen, phosphoric acid and potash.
Of these three elements phosphoric
acid is usually needed. in largest
amount.
A fertilizer tanning about two
per cent. nitrogen, eight per cent.
phosphoric acid, AM two per cent. pot
ash, will produce profitable results in
most cases, and is very commonly
employed. If used in addition to a
heavy crop of Glow Yer, the percentage
of nitrogen may be reduced, but if
used on land that has not been ma
nured or clovered for several years the
percentage of nitrogen can probably
be increased somewhat with profit.
Legume crops should, however, be
used to supply nitrogen whenever pos
sible, as they afford far the cheapest
source of this element.
On some of the wheat soils of the
state our experience has shown that
somewhat more than two per cent. of
potash can be used with profit, but on
most Of the yellow or red clays this
amount should be sufficient. =.
A fertilizer of the 2-8-2 composition
as above may be purchased ready
mixed Or it may be compounded at
home from the raw materials: If
mixed at home the nitrogen may be
secured in the form of bone; tankage,
nitrate of soda or dried blood The

Lovers of the legitimate were
given positive enjoyment last night
by Alberta Gallatin IN cousin
Kate"
Viewed from standpoint of dra-
ynatic merit, Miss Gailatin's en-
gagement is one of the essentially
meritorious events Of the season
now drawing to close. and there
Is tendency to say a great deal
in the way Of thankfulness for the
visitation and to employ adjectives
in the superlative degree to give
vent to appreciation.
Alberta Gallatin Is charming and
she has a charming play. The role
of Kate is natural one, calling for
great delicacy neither to overdo nor
underdo its possibilities.
In support of Miss Callatin are
some very capable people, few in
number, but conscientious in their
portrayals. Wilfred Rogers as
Heath Desmond is a capable young
actor with a captivating brogue.
The balance of the cast, Mr.. Mag.
nus as the clergyman; Mae Wells
and Charles Clifton, as Mrs. Spen
Ger and Bobby, respectively, did the
little required of them capably
while Miss Harrington, as Amy
Spencer, disposed of a part requir
ing a considerable amount Of care
full thought. and did it well.
The engagement closes tonight.

No funnier tale is told of the
prize ring than the incident that
happened at Buffalo, N. Y, shortly
after Peter Maher arrived in this
country.
II ever an Irishman was solid
with his countrymen it was Maher,
and to this day lot Of the wearers
OF the green think that Peter was
the peer Of the heavies Of his day.
He came to this country heralded
as the greatest pugilist the world
had ever seen and ever afterward
was called the Irish champion, de-
spite the fact that he has gone
down time and again before Irish
men.
Peter was given great reception
upon his arrival at Buffalo and his
countrymen were proud Of him
wherever he went.
Peter announced to the pugs In
Buffalo that he would meet them
one and all and put them in the
clear in six rounds or forfeit GER
tain sum of money. About that
time there appeared on the scene
one Thunderbolt Smith. You all
remember that name.
Thunderbolt had a streak of vel
low down his back that reached
from the top Of his head to his
heels, but when it came to run.

ming away from man in limited
round fight, Smith had it on his
opponent.
Tunderbolt met Makers man
ager and the bout was arranged. He
stayed the six rounds and the
sports came very near having to
enlarge the limits of the city to
allow both men to remain after the
battle.
But Smith had An untimely and
abrupt finish to his stay. So elated
was he over his showing that about
the first purchase he made with the
money was a heavy green sweater
and a cane.
Never thinking that it was in
suit to the sons Of the emerals isle,
Smith donned the sweater next day
and took walk. In the course of
his meanderings he strobe along
the docq where lot of good old
Irish grain handlers were busy at
work shoveling the cereal from the
boats.
One look was all that they want
ed. The whole bunch piled onto
Thunderbolt as if he had been a
national enemy. Not shred of the
sweater was left.
Smith went back to his quarters
bruised and sore at heart, but with
his mind fully made up that 1t was
out of order for a colored fighter to
wear the good old Irish color of
green.

kUBELik'S REMARKABLE
HlNDOO SERVANT.

In the retinue Of Jan Kubelik, the
grea t young Bohemian violinist,
who will appear at tho Spokane
theater Monday evening, is a Hin
doc valet, who has had a most re-
markable life history. Dawson is
his very unromantic name, that is,
1t is the name he assumed upon be-
coming Anglicized and Christian
lied. In the Indian province where
Dawson was born he had a name
that was very long and quite un-
pronounceable.
Kubelik met Dawson several
years ago and engaged him princi-
pally because the Hindoo spoke
English perfectly and as the vir-
tuoso was just learning the Ian
guage he wanted some one about
him with whom he could practice
conversation. They remained to-
gether for different reasons. A
great attachment sprang up be-
tween them, though in the relation
OF master and servant. Dawson
almost worships Kubelik and the
latter would trust the Hindoo with
his life. He does trust him with
tie next thing to his Hfe--his three
priceless violins. Dawson is the
custodian Of these precious instru-
ments whose value aggregates $685.
600. Until he engaged Dawson. Ku-
belik would not let these violins
out of his sight. He would lock
them in the safe of his hotel upon
going out. Now he merely leaves
them In Dawsonis charge.
The concert Monday evening pro-
misses to be one of the biggest
treats that Spokane music lovers
have ever had the opportunity to
enjoy.

Kid Scaler will leave for Medical
Lake today to commence training
tor his fight on May 4 with Maurice
Thompson. Lea Myers, Scaler's
manager, told the writer last night
that he had something up his sleeve
In this contest that would prove a
surprise for the fight fans.
81 admit" said Myers, that
am stacking the Kid up against the
hardest game of his career, but If
there Is anyone in the country who
should know all about his ability,
1t is myself, and l want to say right
here that the Kid will surprise more
than one person"
While Scaler has been going
quietly along beating the poor ones,
people have sort of lost sight of
the fact that be has been improv-
ting. Because they see him on the
streets every day they come to
think they have the only dope on
his performances. If al. the fights
he has made in the last fow months
had been made in some town be-
sides his home town, they would
commence to think him a world
heater. 1t has been the case with
every fighter ever known - they
have all had to leave their home
town before they got a reputation
emitting them to a main event.
Take, for instance, Abe Attell.
There is not one person in the
country that does not admit that he
Is beyond the shadow of a doubt
one of the fastest as we'll as the
best featherweights In the business.
How long ago was 1t found out
Not a great while. 1t was found
out in San Francisco, where his
home is. He had to go east and
win few fights before they ever
considered him anything but rank
selling platter. 1t is the same way
with Scaler. His worth is not held
so highly in his home town. At
that. it must be admitted that he
is stackingt'p against the hardest
game of his career. Maurice
Thompson ds a hard-fghting, plod.
ding boy, who Of late has devel.
oped lots of speed and Scaler will
have to go his fastest gait to make
q showing.
