EXPERIMENT IN FERTlLIzINC.
Ex-Secretary Shaw Makes Proposition to a
Renter to Specially Fertlize Thirty
Acres Of Land.

Mr.. Shaw is about to give the
farmers of the locality a demonstra-
ton of the value of fertilizing land
with special preparation. The plan
is quite characteristic and the out
come will be watched by all inter-
ested in crop raising. The Charter
Oak Times has the following about
the matter:
Secretary Shaw makes a good offer
to his renters in this part of the
county, or at least to Mr.. Wilson on
the farm close to Charter Oak. 1t is
this. Mr.. Shaw offers to furnish d
sufficient quality of certain fertil-
izer to treat thirty acres. This would
require about fifteen tons. He de-
mands that Mr.. Wilson haul this
from the railroad to the farm and
put it on the field. Mr.. Shaw will
furnish the required machinery. Their
this land is to be cropped and treated
exactly like similar tract adjoining
it. Mr.. Wilson is to pay the usua
rent, that is. same for the whole farm
than is now paying; but he is to give
Mr.. Shaw one-half of all the fertil-
lied field raised more than the infer
tilted one does. Mr.. Shaw has faitf
enough in this stuff to spread it ovel
his grounds on these terms and trus
to the increased crop to make the re.
turns to him. Mr.. Wilson cannot lose
in the transaction. so he has accepted
the offer. We are glad to see the
demonstration made in this vicinity,
and we are certain there is more thar
one farmer who will watch the de.
velopment with more than passing
interest. If it is successful, all will
want to get in ..on it. If 1T is not,
then they will get temptation out
of their way. There is little question
of its success.

Judge TAFT on Christianity and Civilization.

The truth is we have got to wake
up in this country. We are not all
there is in the world. There are
lots besides US and there are lots of
people besides US that are entitled to
our effort an our money and our sac
ricfie to help them on in the world.
No man can study the movement of
modern civilization from an impartial
standpoint and not realize that
Christianity and the spread of Chris
tiantiy are the only bases for hope of
modern civilization in the growth of
popular self government. The spirit
of Christianity is pure democracy. 1t
is the equality of man before God
the equality of man before the law.
which is. as understand it, the most
godelike manifestation that man has
been able to make.
speak not of foreign missions
from purely religious standpoint.
That has been and will be done.
speak of them from the standpoint of
political government advancement. the
advancement of modern civilization,
and think l have had some oppor-
tunity to know how dependent we are
on the spread of Christianity for any
hope we may have of uplifting people
whom Providence has thrust upon us
for our guidance.
IL is said that there is nothing in
the Constitution of the United States
that authorizes national altruism of
that sort. Well. of course. there is
not; but there is nothing in the Con-
stitution of the United States that
forbids it. What there is in the Con-
stitution of the United States is a
breathing spirit that we are nation
with all the responsibilities that any
nation ever had. and therefore, when
it becomes the Christian duty of a
nation to assist another nation. the
Constitution authorizes it because it
is part Of national wellbeing.

he refused to pay any of the expense
unless the poor parents of the girl
signed an agreement not to claim any
damages for her death. Can it be
that the cardinal principle of the
Standard, relative to the elimination
of waste, is so strenuously inculcated
that the commoner motives of justice
and compassion and helpfulness are
forgotten?

PHIL BAKERS new MOBILE.
Denison Youth Has Fine Home Made Ma
chine. Easily Managed, Light Rum
ming and Economical.

Phil Baker is the proud possessor
of home made mobile which is
dandy. We saw it in operation over
ordinary country roads and it was 60
ing at speed of about fifteen miles
an hour. This is remarkable when it
is considered that it is entirely a
home production. that the machine.
including motor, weighs not to exceed
one thousand pounds and that the en-
tire cost is not in excess of one
hundred dollars. The steering appa-
ralus is the same as that used on the
Thomas Flyer or the Stevens Duryea
cars. and the young operator has ex-
ceIlent control. turning corners
gracefully even when going at good
rate of speed. The motor which is
in front of the chassis is of but one
horse power but so clsverly contrived
that the machine negotiates the steep
hill south of the Baker home with ease.
There are two gears and the car will
accommodate sew en- passengers.
While the Denison boys machine is
not handsomely finished it is service
able and its cheap construction will
commend it to the many who cannot
afford high priced cars. 1t may we'll
be noted also that while the Voss.
Harding. Mcmahon cars were in the
hospital last week the Baker car was
as good as when first completed and
in fine running order. So far. in
fact, Phil informs US that he has had
absolutely no expense for repairs.
Denison leads in many things, why
should it not lead in the manufacture
of cheap and serviceable mobiles.

EIGHT ITALIANS

SOME OF THOSE NABBED ARE
REPUTABLE CITIZENS,
FRIENDS DECLARE.

Some Of the methods employed by
the police In their "gum-shoe" cam
paign against the Black Hand have
excited the indignation Of many ltal-
ian citizens, several of whom called
at police headquarters, Monday morn
ing. to intercede for friends. only to
be turned down cold. The police gave
them no satisfaction. not even admit
ting that the men they sought are In
custody.
Frank Rose, No. 637 Hastings. an
Italian citizen who has resided In De-
troit for 20 years and who enjoys a
good reputation, was practically drag
ged from his bed by three officers,
late Saturday night, and is locked up
somewhere In the city. A friend. Luz
ciano Pacifico. wholesale and retail
grocer at No. 657 Riopelle-st., spent
the entire morning at police headquar-
ters trying to learn something OF
Rose, all to no purpose.
Two other Italians arrested are Cal.

PROPOSED LEGISLATION.

The announced intention OF the

will not interfere with the efforts OF
Aid. Watson and others to pass q
new licensing measure for Detroit

THE brewers may wish to see such
an act in effect, but they cannot make
1t effective says Watson. When IL
comes to deciding as to whose saloon
shall be put out of business, the shoe
will pinch mighty hard and there will
be nothing doing.
1T may be that the act will not
even get vote. We had better go
ahead and deal with our local condi-
tions as we find them and take no
chances on the legislature.
THE new ordinance Is planned to
do away with the law-breaking sa.
looms and that is the class We want
to wipe out. II seems that opinion
among the brewers as to restrictive
measures has changed recently. They
did not talk TO me this way little
while ago"
The new ordinance will be intro
duced either this week or next and
may go to vote before the new
council takes office.
