Governor Brady's First Message.

Boise, Idaho.--Governo Brady de-
livered his first message to the legis-
lature on Tuesday. He urged the full
fillment of all party pledges, including
The enactment of a county local option
law and direct primary law He urges
the Legislature to keep its promise to
the people and re-elect w. B. Hepburn
to the United States senate. He goes
on record against the enactment of a
law creating a railway commission,
but favors the creation of public
utilities commission to have super.
vision of all public service corpora
lions. The creation of a Carey act
commission Is also recommended.
While not advocating lavish expen,
ditures, the governor asks liberal APP
preparations for all state institutions,
especially the state university. Com
pletion of the state building and an
appropriation for an Idaho building at
the Alaskan-Yukon exposition are re-
quested.

These are the resu .. of the pre-
liminary experiments. 1t has since
been learned that much smaller
quantities of fertilizers can be APP
piled with good results. Last year
100 pounds of Acid Phosphate gave
a yield of 1880 pounds per acre, while
800 pounds gave return of 1850
pounds per acre.
1t has been found beyond question
of doubt that phosphates are need
ed more than any other element.
In several instances phosphates plus
nitrogen and potash have given no
better results than phosphates alone.
The present years work has been
directed along the line to determine
what form of phosphates is the most
desirable to use, what quantities and

An experiment on corn and tobac
co is being conducted by the U. S,
| Department of Agriculture and the
Kentucky Experiment Station on the
farm of Mr.. j. w. Foard, Church
hill. Ky. This work should appeal
particularly to farmers living in
South Christian and even in adjoin-
ing counties where soil conditions
are very similar. This is the third
year of experimental work and a
point has been reached where con-
illusions are comparatively safe. Up
to the present time the most marked
results have been obtained on tobac-
CO.
The general impression prevails
with farmers that tobacco requires
potash primarily. While it is true
that the tobacco plant consumes a
larger amount of potash than most
plants, the fact must be taken in
consideration that the soil may be
very fertile in this particular ele.
ment. Chemical analyses of south
Christian soils show on the average,
enough soluble potash to produce
$50 crops tobacco 1000 pounds per
acre. The total potash is sufficient |
TO produce $50 such crops.
The store of nitrogen will produce
crops of tobacco for 40 or so years.
When we approach the question |
of phosgraphates the conditions are
different. The average
of several analyses shows only Is
pounds of available phosphates in
the first six inches of soil. The
plant food requirement Of 1000
pounds of tobacco is 8 to 10 pounds
phosphates. 1t is very evident that
the great shortage of plant food oc-
ours in the case of phosphates. 1t
should be borne in mind that the
mentioned apply only to the
first six inches of soil and does not
take into consideration the plant
food elements of the sUbsoil, How
ever, these facts serve to impress
US with the relative scarcity of phos-
pilates.
The successful use of fertilizers
requires the application of the ele-
nents in which the soil is most de.
iclent. As would be expected, phos-
)hates have given uniformly good
'esults in our experimental work in
his section. Data on the results OBJ
aimed in 1907 and 1908 will be of in
crest. The table shows the fertil- {
ger applied and the yields per acre
ecured. /
