think that minimum of 400 POUNDS
per acre or a maximum or SOo
pounds would be about the limits
that would be advisable.
OF course the most complete utili-
cation Of the raw phosphate would
be had by applying it as fertilizer
for the velvet beans in advance or
planting, with the expectation that
such of it as would not be used by
the beans would later come In con-
tact with the rotted vegetable mat
ter buried in the soil when the beans
are plowed under. However, in case
liberal applications OF raw phosphate
were not made to the beans, | think
that somewhat similar amounts could
advantageously be spread broadcast
on the growing velvet beans just be-
fore blowing them under, with a
view to having fair proportion of
this raw phosphate rendered avail
able after the blowing under OF the
beans in time to be of benefit to the
next crop.
However, still better plan is to
first pasture the velvet beans and
then at any time during the winter
to apply the raw rock phosphate and
pillow under the remainder OF Tho
vines, the manure dropped on The
surface by the live stock, and appli
cation Of ground phosphate rock.

Another point at which exhibitors

In corn that is not pure-bred or
that does not produce a uniform type
OF kernel, care should be taken TO
have the ten ears all OF the same

ears are inexcusable, neither perfect

Fire At Chesapeake city.

Fire that broke out about 1880 Tues
day night completely destroyed the basket
factory at Chesapeake City. The flames
are supposed to have originated in the
engine room and spread rapidly through
the large frame building containing the
sawmill and factory proper. A bucket
brigade formed by the citizens of the
town, prevented the FIRE from spreading
to nearby buildings, after hard fight.
The loss is estimated at $1,000. The
factory was owned by New Jersey parties,
and managed by William M. Brown.
