DRIED SWAMP MUCK.
Ns Benefit In Chemical Fertilizers II
Greatly Exaggerated.

Ns Benefit In Chemical Fertilizers Il
Greatly Exaggerated.
The practice of using dried muck
and peat in mixing chemical fertilizers
puts up problem which farmers ought
to understand. Thousands of tons OF
such muck are used-sold as muck
tankage." We learn of one case where
man started growing celery in
swamp and is said to have nearly fail.
ed at 1t Then he conceived the idea
OF drying and pulverizing the soil of
that swamp and selling 1t to fertilizer
dealers. This has brought him for
tune. Some samples Of this dried peat
are said TO contain nearly per cent
OF nitrogen; others carry less. This nj
trogen Is in an inert form and is OF
little value as plant food. Expert
ments In Illinois showed that such nj.
trogen was worth about one-half cent
a pound as compared with that in dried
blood costing Is cents. Yet the fer
t1liZer manufacturer who sells this
muck mixed with other chemicals I'M
dertakes to charge IS cents pound
for 1t when you buy It, For example.
tunS uIdHu VI IeEllllZer winch Is
guaranteed to contain In each ton 10
pounds Of nitrogen. 160 pounds avail.
able phosphoric geld and 100 pounds Of
potash. Il would be possible to supply
the potash and phosphoric acid in 200
pouiss of muriate and 100 pounds
of acid phosphate Then by using 100
pounds of cottonseed meal and 800
pounds of dried muck they could pro-
vide more nitrogen than they guaran-
teed. The object of using the cotton
seed meal Is to color the muck and
thus prevent II possible. the chemist
from detecting 1t. But see what nice
game this is! The muck furnishes
ten or twelve pounds of nitrogen. which
gives the fertilizer valuation of from
$3.50 to s.. but which costs perhaps
20 cents. A farmer might use such a
fertilizer on his wheat this fall. The
potash and phosphoric acid may help.
but 1t is doubtful II his grandchildren
will see any benefit from the nitrogen
In the muck.
The excuse given for using the muck
Is that 1t makes good filler and dries
out the other chemicals No serious OBJ
lection can be made to its use as a
filler, but the nitrogen 1t contains

KOoSKIA
From Mountaineer.

w. Hagen arrived from Elk City
this week, bringing his horses out to
winter range. Since the Buster mine
closed down things look little blue
around Elk, but Mr.. Hagen thinks
business will pick up again by and
by.
Work on the new church is pro-
crossing nicely, owing to the good
weather the past week This will be
good news to the east Kooskiaites who
are obliged to wade in mud ankle deep
on account of the sidewalks being
misplaced, and the dirt from the ex-
cavation being thrown along the hill
where the walk used to be.
The footrace which was to have
taken place at Sites last Saturday
was declared off, Gordon, it is said,
having come to the conclusion that
Joe keene was too fast for him.
keene's record has been hunted up,
and according to all accounts he is at
the head of his class-a professional
runner who gets the money in nearly
every race he enters.
The inhabitants of East kooskia
are very well pleased with the accom-
modations which the kooskia mer-
chants now afford them by delivering
merchandise, meat, etc.. on two DAYS
of the week-Tuesdays and Saturdays.

That same evening as Smithers sat
by his window smoking the same

looked up at the starry heavens and
leaned her sore finger on the sill to

first. but when he thought he detected
tears in her eyes and quivering Of
her chin he thrust himself forward to
let her know that there was at least
one human being in this world who
felt for her.
The same rag and the same finger
and the same girl walked out next

he walked out too. Nothing was fur

POLICEMAN'S PROBE
MAKES HIM CONVERT
Experiments With Theories of
Stomach Man and Finds
Them Well Founded.
HIS WIFE ALSO BENEFITS
LED TO TRY TREATMENT BY
WATCHING CROWDS.

Led to investigate the theories of the
Cooper stomach man" by having OBJ
aerved a constant stream Of humanity
flowing in to visit the eastern expert,
Policeman j. +. Norris of the salt Lake
force, residing at 1910 Johnson avenue,
tried Cooper's treatment for himself
and WIFE Now he is quite as enthusi-
astic a convert" as any of the hum
dreds of others in the city who have
50 announced themselves. He is one
IF the most popular officers in the city.
Policeman Morris has been posted at
the Busy Corner" Main and Second
South streets, where within Smith S
drug store, the stomach man" is max
ing his headquarters. Norris directed
hundreds each day who inquired for
the stomach man." He was a victim of
stomach trouble himself, suffering from
constipation, gas, belching, dizziness
pains i'm the back and sides, together
with chronic indigestion. So he de-
termined to look into the Cooper the
cries for himself
He had @ little talk with the "stOm-
ach man." who told him about his be-
lief that 50 Der cent of an i'll health
is caused by stomach trouble merely,
and explained the reason for his
opinion that a common sense treatment
of the stomach would restore a person
TO good health, tone up the stomach to
digest its food naturally. So he tried
a full course of treatment, inducing his
wife to also try the remedy. This is
what he said yesterday i'm an interview:
MY stomach had bothered me for
a number of years. 1 had catarrh of
the stomach with all symptoms All
the food I would eat would ferment
and form gas. and this would cause
me so much pain that it would wake
me up at night. ny wife was also suf-
fering from the same complaint. We
suffered greatly from pains all the time
We secured a full treatment Of the
Cooper remedies, and now we both
are well. I do not believe In rushing
into print but when a man makes good
with a statement like this Cooper
remedy, and restores both me and my
wife to health, / am willing to tell any
body who asks me-"
In a statement yesterday the Cooper
stomach man" said:
AS a result of the requests of many
persons who are employed during the
day, and who cannot call to see me
curing my regular office hours, 10 in
the morning to at night, I wish to
announce that on Saturday I viii stay
