Poultry manure is very rich in all
the fertilizing elements, and especial
ly so in nitrogen, due to the fact that
the urinary secretions which contain
large amounts of nitrogen as well as
potash in readily available form, are
voided with the solid excrement. Most
of the nitrogen in fresh droppings is
in the form of uric acid, and is readily
available to growing plants. 1t IS,
however, very quickly changed into
carbonate of ammonia by putrefaction.
and escapes into the air in the form
OF ammonia.

Corncobs are often allowed to go to
waste because they rot SO slowly that
they are not available as fertilizers.
This difficulty may he overcome in
part, at least, by running the cobs
through a corn crusher. This breaks
them up In small pieces, and they
will rot much more quickly. If this
crushed material is spread upon the
land and plowed under. much bene-
1T will result. This fertilizer is espe-
cially good for orchards.

The 4th at Stoyer.


this year, the editor OF the RrpUR-
LiCAN went with the crowd to help
Slower celebrate, and the combined
forces surely made it complete sue
cess. The day was an ideal one for
outdoor pleasure, the rain of the day
before having laid the dust and
cooled the air made it very comfort
able. The crowd present was esti-
mated at fully 1000, and one en-
thusiastic Slower booster was willing
to bet a jug of-buttermilk-that
there was 3, 900 good loyal citizens of
Old Morgan present. The bet was
not covered. II was just genuine
old fashioned 4th of July celebration,
held in nice shady grove near the
city, with we'll of good water, swing,
stands, and good music furnished by
the Stove, and Versailles Bands, and
the Stovcr Glec Club. AS the Stuver
Band boys had considerable other
work to do besides filing the air with
melody, the burden OF supplying the
mighty throng with good music fell
on the Versailles Cornct Band. and
from the many complimentary re-
marks heard we guess they were on
to their job. Quite number of
speeches were made by local talent.
mostly candidates. on short order
style, but the crowd was not much in

they were there just for 4 good time
in their own way, and they had it.

much interested in fully enjoying the
occasion, to even secure the names
OF the speakers or of the husllcrs VIII G
did the work, except the Master oI
Ceremonies, J. NJ. Stith, who kept
things moving all the time. There
was a slide for life in the afternoon
and evening, mild thriller, and
quite an exciting potato race. The

was great, but one is enough for
quite q while.
Geo. Ide, who took over the Yer.
sailles Band in two sections Monday,
with his two fine mule teams, valued
at $1,000, was found at Slower trying
to kick himself for not taking the
big band wagon, with the four mules,
and load it with a bevy Of Versailles
beauties, there was lots OF them at
Slower, and getting into the parade.
The mules were also kicking at
such mulish trick.
The parade given by the business
firms of Slower, together with the
floats of handsome little girls, and
big girls too was splendid display,
and those too late to see it, missed
the best thing of the day.
The only disturbing feature during
the day, was the fall Of the band
stand occupied by the Versailles
Band. 1t was built to sustain
weight of 500. 900 lbs, but there was
only about 200 900 lbs. on il (the
Band) when Anton f. Ehlers, the
Democratic candidate for county
clerk, took seat on the edge, when
down it went kerplunk, but nobody
hurt, and no harm done. We knew
Anton was heavyweight, but didn't
suppose he was that heavy.
In addition to being the celebra-
ton OF independence Day, it was all
so candidates day, and they were
there in force, and il there was any
body who smoked or drank red lem
onade and paid for it, they jnst fooled
away their money. The candidates
all appeared to be happy and conf

meet with disappointment on Aug.
end.

know not-dld not see any autos or

we heard of was J. ". McClclland =,
