PARIS, February 20. 1911
interesting experiments have been car
ried out with submarine and wireless
telegraphy by the submarine flotilla at
Cherbourg. BY means Of submarine bells
messages were conveyed quite distinctly
to the battleship Bouvines by four SUBJ
marines, each at a distance of seven
miles. As result of this experiment
the minister of marine has given in
structions that all submarines shall be
provided with these bells.
The submersible Prairial was also sue
cessful in signaling to the Bouvines by
wireless telegraphy all the vessels met
by her between Saint WAIST, Cape de Ia
Hogue and Cherbourg, and announcing
her arrival in sight OF the forts of
Cherbourg. French submarines will in
future be provided with wireless teleg-
raphy apparatus.

PLAN TO STUDY PHOSPHATES
Friction With Germany Over Fer
tilizer Material Believed to Have
Prompted Action.

With the potash fertilizer issue between
this country and Germany becoming
acute the Department Of Agriculture has
arranged to start the first of two field
parties next week to study fertilizer de-
posits in this country. The department
says. however, that there is nothing aimed
at Germany in the investigation, but the
fact that there has been so much friction
between this country and the German
potash exporters was the real reason that
moved Congress to appropriate money for
a general fertilizer investigation, and the
two field parties that are being fitted out
are a part of the result.
One. under w. II. Waggaman, will in
vestigate the phosphate deposits, and the
other will be sent to the Great Plains re-
gion to prospect for potash.
The Department of Agriculture has
been accommodating data on fertilizers for
several years, and. the present systematic
investigation is intended to cOrrelate
much of this information

The Herefordshire de Lacys and their

Question of Transportation.

AS the cost of transportation enters
largely into the cost of fertilizer any,
where, efforts will be made to develop
deposits as near as possible to the places
where they will be used.
What the department wants to impress
on the farmer Is that there is no such
thing as wOrn-out land, and that fer
tilizers properly used pay best on the
richest lands. This has been proved in
Japan and Belgium. where intensive cult
walton has reached the highest develop
ment, and the department wants to prove
it In this country so as to make a much
smaller cultivated area produce as much
in the way OF crops as is now raised on
the land at preesnt under cultivation.

No Land Is Worn Out.

First of all the department has come to
the rather startling conclusion that there
is no such thing as WORKOUT land" This
has been phrase in use so long that it
has come to be generally accepted as true.
Another thing that points to similar
conclusion is that 80 per cent Of the fer
tilizers used in the United States is used
east Of the Mississippi river and S. per
cent of this Is used south Of the Potomac
and Ohio.
But the department holds that the the
Dry of fertilizers has been much mis-
understood in the past, and 1t is aiming
to get more complete grasp Of the sub
ject. 1t has been generally believed by
both the public and the users of fertilizers
that their sole mission was to serve as
plant food. DR.. Frank Cameron Of
the bureau Of soils, under whom the pres
ent investigation is being carried on, says
that there are several other factors en-
tering into the problem of yield and fer
tility Some Of these are the mechanical
effect on the soil OF fertilizers and cult
walton. some are chemical problems and
some are biological, for the question Of
crop yield depends greatly on the pres
ence of organisms in the soil.

Practical Example Cited.

About these not so much is known as
it is hoped to find out. One practical ex-
ample of these organisms, however. is
the nodule formation on the roots of
leguminous plants It is known that
these manufacture nitrogen from the air
and there are probably other helpful or
ganisms that can be encouraged by proper
understanding Of the conditions under
which they live and their functions relat-
ing to plants
The Department of Agriculture has ac-
cumulated a lot of more or less disjointed
information, and one of the objects Of
the present investigation is to work this
together into understandable form.
The investigation will include labora-
tory work and the development Of lab
oratory methods into practical CONNER
cial methods. 1t is known that there is
an immense amount OF potash In the

studied is to see whether it can be ex-
tracted commercially.
In the same way there are potash COM
binations with other salts, and the de-
partment aims to see whether these can
be utilized. There are brine wells all
over the United States, and samples oil
these will be analysed to see whether
any valuable fertilizing salts can be ex-
tracted from them
To Experiment With Sea Water.
Experiments will also be made with
sea water, for it is known that under
proper conditions brine is valuable as a
fertilizer. This does not mean that the
ocean is to be pumped on a cornfield and
put the fertilizer trust cut of business.
but there is a chance that valuable ele-
ments can be recovered from sea water
to use in fertilizers.
The wastage Of cities is to be studied
also. 1t is known in general way that
sewage is a great potential fertilizer. and
efforts will be made to study this waste
and utilize it to the best advantage.
There Is an immense amount of waste
also in the phosphate works Of the south.
and experiments will be tried to see
whether at present prices 1t is worth

plain. One who boasts that he can
overthrow God, the bible, the religion
of Jesus will be ground into power
before it's force. TO do this, is like
telling the advancing tide to turn
back. Do not let any OF my readers
ever try that experiment. Again the
Hebrew king did just what you and
should do when more than human
help is needed; go to God earnestly in
prayer and proper answer will be
at hand. When it comes to a direct
showing of power between the religion
of Jesus and its opposition, the out
