south and the undeveloped north are
to be represented as well as the new
west Indeed, it is question II the
term international" would not be
more fitting as applied to the con-
gress, as many foreign countries,
among them Australia, the farthest
away, and Canada, our neighbor, Will
have representatives present. An op-
portunity will be offered at the session
to further national effort In conserva-
tion and development, and speakers
have been chosen to discuss the ef-
feet Of such effort in the various in
dustries Of the country who have made
a thorough study and know whereof
they speak Not only have irrigation
lists and agriculturists been invited to
attend the sessions Of the congress,
but the manufacturers Of the east,
whose business is dependent upon
streams for power the southerner
who must drain his land In order TO
make It fruitful and the man Of com
merce whose interest is in naviga-
tion.
In addition to such attendance Con-
gressman Theodore E. Burton Of Ohio,
chairman Of the Inland Waterways
commission, has notified the chairman
Of the executive committee that the
commission will be represented at
the fifteenth session. The following
members Of the commission have been
delegated by Mr.. Burton to represent
that body in the irrigation congress-
Senator Francis Newlands Of Nevada,
Senator John H. Bankhead Of Ala
bama, Clifford Piuchot, United States
forester; F. H. Newell director recia-
nation service: and Dr. W. ]. McGee,
secretary of the commission, and for
mer president Of the National Geo
graphical society. The presence Of
members Of this very important body
will be an important factor in the
congress. To what extent the specific
work Of the commission will figure in
the discussion cannot be foretold, but
it is certain that the larger effort in
the direction of the streams and the
/ preservation of their watersheds will
form an important topic Of general
discussion.
The suggestion that the eastern for
est reserve question be discussed al
the session has created much interest
among prominent men Of the eastern
states who are identified with the
movement to establish reserves in the
Appalachian and White mountains
Letters have been received from al
over the eastern states approving the
suggestion and expressing the hops
that the matter will be scheduled fol
discussion at the Sacramento meet
ing. The officers Of the fifteenth con
gress are: President, Hon. George Il
Chamberlain Of Oregon; first vies
president, Hon. John H. Smith O
Utah; second vice president, Hon. H
B. Maxson, Nevada; third vice presi
dent, Hon. G. &. Barstow, Of Texas

Charles I. was imprisoned.
The Oxford pageant, which ran
from June n TO July 8, achieved q
brilliant success and attracted thou
sands OF American visitors to the
old university town. That Of Rom
sey abbey, which preceded it, was
scarcely less notable triumph. The
gray abbey itself, the milenary Of
whose foundation was thus commem-
GRATED, is admittedly the most perfect
example Of a Norman conventical
building in the kingdom. It is true
to its type--a sturdy bulldog a
building. Doubtless that is Bh it
has lasted out the centuries SO won
derfully
Mr.. Parker when appealed to as to
the possibility Of successful historical
pageants in America replied:
my knowledge OF American his
tory is limited, but | should say that
towns In America with histories suit
ed to reproduction in the form Of
pageants are rare. But there are
few OF them that would lend them
selves to such purpose admirably.
Plymouth, Mass. for intsance. would
be an ideal place for such show. /
could imagine none better In America.
According TO my ideas. speaking of
hand, an historic pageant there should
be worked out something like this:
The first tableau should depict a
scene In the English town from
whence Il takes its name. Successive
tableaux should represent the landing
Of the Pilgrim fathers. the early trials
OF the settlers and their struggles
with the Indians. the split with the
mother land, and 30 on through the
independent history Of the country
Salem. Mass, is another town that
affords abundant material for an his
toric pageant. the witch incident, es-
pecially. being we'll adapted to dra-
matte representation Boston is an
other city that has the necessary his
tory. but fine city though II is. from
what have seen Of 1t should say its
people are TOO busy to bother about
pageants. The same Is true Of New
York. It's population is too cosmo-
polltan and too much absorbed in
trade and commerce to enter with en-
thusiasm into the preparation Of an
historic pageant There are many
people there who know nothing and
care nothing about the history Of the
city"
But the towns in America whose
history goes back far enough TO az
ford good material for the presenta
ton OF pageants In them are by nc
means so limited as MT, Parker ap
pears to think Anybody familiar
with American history could easily
specify. dozen or more that would
well answer the purpose.

able to Plants.-The fertility of the
soil, in the limited meaning above
given, depends upon the amount Of
material which It contains in a form
available to the crop. Soils are fire.
quently very infertile which contain
an enormous amount OF all the es-
sential elements. because one or more
of these elements does not exist in
forms which can be taken up by the
plant in sufficient amounts. A good
illustration Of this fact was found in
the soil Of field in north.central Wis
consin surrounded by very fertile
land. Although this field had produced
but two or three crops since it was
cleared, it had become so completely
exhausted that corn made practically
no growth This soil was In the very
best physical condition, or tlth, and is
fine clay loam. From all appear.
anCes one would expect Il to be quite
fertile. When. however test was
made BY filling eight fouggallon jars
with this soil and adding to them
different fertilizers, it was found that
the soil contained all essential ele-
ments In sufficient quantity to allow
good growth except phosphorus. Fig

which It was derived A very consid-
cradle part, however, has been
changed BY the processes Of weather
ing from the original form to sec
ondary condition. A large part Of the
first class is not soluble In even hot
strong acids. while the forms produced
by weathering are soluble in such
acids. Some Of this weathered ma
terial has been further transformed
into material soluble in water and, in
deed, the amount in that form would
ordinarily be quite large were It not
that It is removed almost as rapidly
as formed, In regions where there is
sufficient rainfall,
2. Organic Matter-Most soils have
a large or small amount Of matter de-
rived from vegetation in various
stages Of decomposition. Part Of this
is still in such a condition that the
tissues and fibers Of plants can be
recognized, while another part has
completely lost its form and structure,
and has changed into a black, wax
like substance which forms a coating
around soil grains This latter ma
terial is called humus, while the for
mer is simply undecomposed vegetable
matter,

shown in Fig. 2. in which the cylinders
were filed with a black marsh soil
from a field in the university farm on
part Of which corn had made a very
poor growth. In this case 1t can be
seen that the single element, potas-
SUM, is not present in sufficient
quantities in the right form for crops
in the portion Of the field from which
the soil was taken. Here again chem
ical analysis showed that the entire
amount of potash in the soil Of an
acre, to depth Of one foot amounts
to 2s.600 pounds while so pounds OF
potash (K2 % per acre applied in an
available form will allow the soil to
produce an excellent crop. Many more
instances Of this kind might be cited
where the soil contains large amounts
Of the essential elements, but one or
more Of them are not in the right
form for absorption by the plant, as
shown by the failure OF the crops to
make good growth unless the soil is
fertilized with these elements in an
available form.
It is probable that most Of the ma
terial in the soil, in order to be avail
able to crops, must be soluble in
water, at least in the soil moisture
which contains carbon dioxide and
