WASHINGTON, Feb. A.-The house

warm session this morning, devoted to
consideration Of Representative Hulrs

members of the diplomatic and consular
corps stationed In the great cotton con-
Stunning countries OF Great Britain, Ger
many and France were from the cotton
growing states.
The result of the consideration of the
resolution was the appointment of sub
committee, consisting of Judge DENLY, OF
Michigan, to visit the secretary of state
and secure for the committee the in
formation desired. 1t was agreed If Judge
Hull would permit some changes in his
resolution 1t would be adopted, but it is
not yet decided that the information to
be secured by Judge DENLY win be given
to the public.
The Democratic members of the COM
mittee, Messrs. Flood, of Virginia; Hitch-
cock. of Nebraska. and Garner. of Tex
as, backed the resolution, and all the
Republicans seemed to oppose It, Judge
Hull, who made a statement in behalf Of
his resolution, assured the committee
that he had not the slightest partisan
motive In presenting It; that he was not
seeking to have members of the minority
party appointed specially, that his sole
object was to have represented in the
countries named. which consume every
year such large quantities of our cotton.

growing industry, in order that they may

Mr.. Hull called attention to the fact
that even since the regulations of the
civil service had controlled appointments
to the consular service the various ap-
pointments had been made in very large
degree from other than the cotton states,
which. to his mind, showed that "some-
thing was wrong

Cotton seed contains per 100 pounds
about S.1s pounds Of nitrogen. 1.27
pounds of phosphoric acid, and III
pounds OF potash. An application of 300
or 400 pounds. per acre would thus not
add very much phosphoric acid and pot
ash to the soil. while It would supply
fair amount of nitrogen. To balance
up the food supply in your soil IT would
seem to US that the best policy to pursue
would be to apply 225 pounds of high
grade acid phosphate and rs pounds OF
muriate of potash per acre. This will
make a S00-pound mixture running high
in phosphoric acid and potash, but not
too high for ordinary land on which you
expect to grow cotton. If you propose
to secure all the nitrogen needed for
your crop from cotton seed, you will
| find 400 pounds little enough to use
500 pounds of cotton seed and 100
pounds of nitrate of soda used a tor
dressing would be about the right thing
for cotton. Break your land with g

PREPARING FERTILIZER FORM
ULAS.
p. V. w, Bonneville, Ca, writes: I
would like to know the analysis OF the
following mixture: 400 pounds of cotton
seed meal, 500 pounds of 16 per cent acid
phosphate, and 500 pounds Of German
kainit. 1 have used this mixture two
years and like it very well on my sandy
land. Could 1 improve this mixture by
using s-4 acid? Would like to know how
TO work out for myself the different per
cents Of guano.
The fertilizer mentioned in your letter
would contain approximately % pounds
of nitrogen, 13S pounds OF phosphoric
acid and log pounds Of potash per ton. It's
percentage composition would be IL per
cent Of nitrogen, S. per cent OF phos-
uhoric acid and So per cent OF potash.
This fertilizer is low in nitrogen and
phosphoric acid for sandy land. You can
Increase the supply of phosphoric acid
by reducing the kainit to 700 pounds and
putting in 100 pounds more of acid. The
nitrogen may be increased by using
top dressing of nitrate of soda at the
rate of 100 pounds per acre. An s-4 acid
potash mixture would not improve this
fertilizer in any way. as 1t is already
too one-sided Undoubtedly the high per
cent Of potash used was beneficial on
sandy land which is deficient in this ma
teriaI, and cotton is quite likely to/rust

We will try and explain to you the
method of working out fertilizer formu-
