Nitrate Fertilizers.

The use of nitrogen as a fertilizer
starts a quick growth. as shown in the
greener and more vigorous leaf. The
results are so prompt and noticeable
that the value of nitrogen Is often
overestimated. Nitrate OF soda on new
sown grass land or similar crops acts
almost like magic, the difference in the
growth being seen long way of. But
it should be noticed that the growth
produced by niyo~en IS weak and lia-
BILE to lodge and that there is more
water and less nutrimeut in the prod
uct, also more liability to rust and
other diseases because CT the tender
unsound nature of the nitrogen forced
growth Even the weeds are more
liable to mildew on land that has been
made too rich in nitrogen. y single
kind of fertilizer will serve useful
purpose for the time being, but its use
must be followed by square meal
in the line of plant fOod.-American

in Tombstone when Red Face was

THE men went into the accusations
pretty thoroughly. There was no evi-

they must pronounce him innocent at

The big income that every farmer

to keep the soil just as fertile as posi-

Perhaps the most common cause of
hens not laying is lack of meat in the
ration. says American Cultivator.
While most people feed meat or meat
scraps, many do not give enough of it
to do much good. The morning feed
should comprise at least one-eighth
meat scraps. Many poultrymen keep
scraps before the fowls NIL the time in
hoppers, allowing them to eat as much
as they choose Fresh cut bone is pre-
ferred by some. 1t should be fed mod
erately.

phlet in advocacy of the freedom
of the press; but he meant the
freedom to print ones opinions
without first submitting the copy
to government inspectors. He
was not advocating the liberty to
print all sorts of slanders about
people. Newspapers have no
more right to print and scatter
lies about people than a public
speaker has to utter false state
ments about his neighbors. There
can be no such liberty allowed to
either publisher of newspapers
or speakers.
Recently President Roosevelt
felt called upon to send a mes
sage to Congress relative to an
alleged slanderous publication by
the New York World. That news
paper had published the untruth
that certain men in close touch
with the President, had stolen
much of the money which was
supposed to have been paid to
France for the remnants of the
old Panama canal which had been
failure. Forty million dollars
was the sum agreed upon. This
sum was paid over to the French
agents as was alleged at the time.
The New York World, without
giving one iota of proof, charges
that much of the forty millions
stuck to the palms of American
statesman, among whom are one
Robinson, brother-in-law to the
President, and Charles P: Taft,
brother to the President elect,
and a candidate for the Ohio SEN
atorship. Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr..
Cromwell, attorney for the
French claimants, say emphatic
ally that the men accused had
nothing to do with the transaction
that there was no foundation
whatever for the Worlds infam-
GUS charge. The President got
wrathy over the matter, threat
ening to prosecute the World for
criminal libel. The "big stick
was vigorously used upon the
guilty editor for publishing such
lies. What is the EDITORS plea!

What! Are newspaper editors
at liberty to publish lies with I'M
