Ohio NAV not likeit, but Ohio is like
the South-she cannot help herself.
We perhaps made mistake in get
ting too thick with Japan in the first
place.
Perhaps the President only wanss
to put some OF the Republican friends
OF the negro OH record.
One while we thought the trusts
were responsible for all Of our trou-
bIes but now it appears to be the rail
roads.
The Watts law is all right where it
will give those who favor 1t what
they want, but this is about as lar
as it goes.
Even the man who wants to be let
alone by the law makers does not
stanmuch Of chance ofgetting what
he wants.
II the President has the mind to
he can make Mr.. Foraker powerful
sick Of this niger business before his
term is out.
Instead of doing away with the
second class passenger rate on the
railroads, it would be better If they
sOuld add a third.
There will perhaps he nothing
doing until they find u way OF stick
inc it to the Southern and allowing
the Others to escape.
1t is pcrniciOus activity when re-
publican federal officials so farforget
themselves as to give battle to demo-
cratic State officials.
1t might also be possible to find a
reason for questioning the motives Of
some OF those who are determined
that the railroads shall catch it,
1t is perhaps no worse to force pro-
hibition on a community that does
not want il than to force it on an
individual that does not want it,
BY his conduct one would natural
ly think that the Southern has done
something to Mr.. Justice at one time
or another. lie seems to have been

Some of those who went to Raleigh
iii the hope of making a reputation
for themselves at the expense of the
railroads are not finding the propo-
sition as easy as they had been led to
believe 1t was going to be.
We know nothing of the qualifca-
tiOns OF the negro that the President
proposes to appoint to office in
CINCINNATI, but he isperhaps fully AZ
competent as those who have been
appointed in the South.

APPLYING FERTILIZER WHEN
PLANTING.
While it is certainly true, in our ex-
perience, that the greater part of the fer
tilizer should be applied about two weeks
before the crop is to be planted, well
mixed in the soil of the bedding fuTrow
and bedded on. there are circumstances
that would justify a farmer in making
one or more intercultural applications
including one at the actual date of plant
ing. The following are such circumstan-
ces:
% When farmer has not been able
to secure the whole amount of his fer
tilizers before planting time.
CO When he concludes, after his crop
has been planted and is growing, that
he did not buy and apply as much as he
should have done before planting.
90 When the yellowish green color and
want Of vigor in the appearance of the
plants indicate that more nitrogen Is
needed by the crop.
We believe it may be safely accepted
as a general rule that a small portion
of Virginia Carolina Fertilizer should be
applied with, or near the seed, at the
time of planting. The effect of this small
application is to supply the young plants
with available food during the first stage
of their growth, inducing prompt and
vigorous development For this purpose
40 to so pounds per acre may be applied
of the same fertilizer that had been bed
ded 1on two weeks before planting.
A second application Of high-grade fer
tilizers may be made at the second or
third blowing Of cotton, or at six or eight
inches height Of the plants up to Is inch
es or the middle to last of May, and the
J.liddle to last of June.
The intercultural applications may be
made in the siding furrow, or the fer
tilizer may be strewn along in the middles
Is no need to fear that the plants will
yet get the benefit of a high-grade fer
tilizer if put anyhere, on or between the
rows. June 18th is the latest date at
which the writer has ever applied fer
tilizer in this way to either corn or cot
ton, although there is little reason to
doubt that even later applications would
benefit the crop; but probably not enough
to pay the cost Of the fertilizer.

Wilm ngton Messenger
The two bills now pending in the

paper men of the state ask that the
present law as to this be allowed
to stand. There is doubt, however,
whether it will be done. There seems
to be a determination on the part OF
some members of the legislature to
put a stop to these contracts. We
do not know whether they are actu-
ated by hostility to the press or the
state or think they can in this way
strike another blow at the railroads.
