Fertilizers.

Fertilizers may be divided into two
general classes-direct and indirect,
or nutritive and stimulant A direct
or nutritive fertilizer is one which
furnishes nourishment to the growing
crop. Nourishment means simply nj
trogen, phosphoric acid and potash.
These are the three ingredients which
must be renewed through the medium
OF manures and fertilizers. A stimu-
liant or indirect fertilizer is one which

LIST OF CENSUS ENuMERAroRs

Durand by Geographer Chas. S. Sloane
OF the census bureau, in whose division
the enumerators' districts are defined
and fixed. This is an increase of about
Il,oOo over the number of schedule
carriers In the census of 1900.
Director Durand points out that the
per diem enumerators in 1900, accord.
ing to the provisions of section 16 of
the act approved March 8, 1899. were
required to work ten hours a dav. Int
In the act providing for the thirteenth
ana subsequent deeennial censuses the
time is fixed at eight hours day. This
reduction in the daily hours will re-.
qulre an additional number of enumer.
ators IN the portions of the country in
winch the per diem rates will prevail
The present census law requires that
the enumeration of the population shall
be taken as of the fifteenth dav of
April, 1910, and the enumerators must
forward their returns to the super
Vlsors within thirty days from the com
m \ of the enumeration, except
mat IN any city having 5000 inhabi-
tants OF more at the preceding census
the enumeration shall be completed
within two weeks.
In looking into the details of the
estimates, Oklahoma and Washington
are conspicuous, as they will call for
about 300 per cent increase over the
1900 force of enumerators.
Washington's 397 in 1900 completed
the work in II days. 1t is estimated
that in 1910 it will require at least 900
counters, owing to the great increase
in its population.

the diocese of Alaska, Bishop P. r.
Rowe, one of the best known men of the
entire northland, has arrived in Seat
tie. He is returning by Puget sound
to his home station at Sitka, after a
journey covering the missionary dis
tricts along the Arctic as far to the
eastward as Point Hope. He says he
is we'll pleased with the achievements
of his corps of workers among the polar
Eskimos.
Although the diocese presided over
by Bishop Rowe is one of the largest
allotted to any prelate in the world for
supervision and the duties involved
included wearing dog-team and rein
deer trips over thousands of miles of
waste, he has completed plans that will
add to the duties by extending his field
work.

There are several points in feeding
sheep that must not be overlooked.
The feed lot must be dry, with plenty
Of clean, dry bedding; the animals
must have plenty OF Gle 4. pure water.
and the feed troughs should be kent
clean. These should be arranged 80
that the sheep cannot foul them with.
their feet. Another point is to keep
them from becoming excited or fright
ened. To this end It is better that one
person feed them all the time.

A good pump should be part of the
equipment of every garden. For the
small garden a good bucket, com.
pressed air or knapsack pump will be
most satisfactory while for larger
gardens barrel pump, with an at.
tachment for spraying several rows
when occasion demands, or an auto
matte pump geared to the wheels of
the truck, will be found more economi-
cal Of time and labor. The small
compressed air sprayer is handy, as 1t
leaves both hands free for use, and
Is, therefore, useful If 1t is desired to
spray two or three small trees, posi-
bly, with the use of stepladder to
reach their tops.
