ABBOTT DISCUSSED
SOIL IMPROVEMENT

Commercial fertilizer has been
quite largely used in Indiana for a
good many years, but the men who
arc using IL all too often fail to take
10 crop PRODUCTION and the permanent
maintenance Of the fertility Of the
soil" said J. u. Abbott in his lecture
on Soil Improvement" Continuing
he said. "there seems to be "A ten
dency to regard IL much as patent
medicines are regarded: 10 attribute
To IL some mysterious stimulating eff
feet on tho SOIL and to fear unfavor-
able after results. particularly II its
uso Is discontinued. This attitude
Is all wrong and Is costing the users
OF fertilizers n god many dollars ev-
cry year. There is nothing mysterious
about fertilizers: nothing that is not
easily comprehensive to everybody:
and IL looks like mighty poor business
policy for tho farmers OF Indiana to
spend hundreds Of thousands of dol.
lars every year without any clear
idea as to what they are buying or
why. The facts behind the use of
fertilizers, as nearly as can be sum-
married. in u few words are about as
follows:
Fertile virgin soils keep on produc-
ing luxuriant growth of vegetation
indefinitely because nothing is re-
moved from tho land, and the supply
OF plant food Is used over and over
again. but cultivated soils will not
keep on producing crops indefinitely
because every crop or portion of
crop that Is removed takes away some
Of the none too abundant plant food,
thus In time reducing the supply so
low that the soil ceases to produce
profitable crops. Three elements of
plant food nitrogen. PHOSPHORUS and
deficient; and when we buy fertilizers
we are simply buying one or more of
these elements as direct food for
our crops. Fertilizer is just as truly
a food for plants as corn or clover
hay Ia for s,eers. and II Is just as i'm
portant from the financial standpoint
to know exactly what food our plants
require and where we can buy IL
cheapest.
Field fertilizer tests conducted by
the experiment stations in various
parts of the state have shown that the
soils fail TO supply enough phosphor-
ic acid, nitrogen or potash for maxi
mum crop production. The first thing
to do SO to save what plant food there
Is left by saving manure, straw. corn
stalks, etc. The next thing to consid-
or Ia the growth of clover or COW peas
TO furnish nitrogen and decaying or
ganic matter. But Is Is important TO
remember that lcgumes fix atmos-
pheric nitrogen within their own It's
sues rather than i'm the soil, and IL
the crop Is removed from the soil the
nitrogen goes too and leaves the soil
n little better off than before. The
mineral elements of plant food. phos-
phoric acid and potash. must be pur-
chased In the form of commercial fer
tilizer or raw materials. and of these
mineral elements phosphoric acid is
by far the more important; though
both may be needed.
'The experiment station does not
advise the purchase of commercial nj
uogen for general farm crops except
In relatively small amounts for wheat,
us 1t does not usually pay"

TALKING OF PAGEANT
Representative of Commercial Club
Present Matter to Woman's
Club.

One of the largest companies of
the year attended the November
meeting of the ST. Johnsbury
Woman's club at Pythian hall on
Monday afternoon. The newly dec
GRATED hall added pleasure to the
gathering. One of the possible oc-
currences of next season was re-
vealed when in behalf of the Com
mercial club Charles e. Peck and
Frank H. Brooks presented the sub
Ject of a pageant to be given some
time next year in celebration of the
125th anniversary of the settlement
of st. Johnsbury. The club seemed
unanimous in wishing to aid the
club in the project. Several club
women spoke on the project and a
good deal of enthusiasm was mani
tested.
Following the reports of the sec
retary, resolutions on the death of
Miss Mary L. Martin, prepared by a
committee, were read by the secre-
tary. The resolutions were accepted
and it was moved that copies be sent
to the relatives. The following new
members were announced: Mrs.
Guy Harris, Mrs. Joseph Walker,
Mrs. William G. Kicker, Mrs. z. S.
Waterman, Mrs. Arthur Brooks and
Mrs. G. II. Colby. The president an
nounced an invitation from DR.. Ben
edict to all club members to attend
tn eelcture by Pres. Benton of the
University of Vermont at the Acad-
envy, Thursday afternoon at three
O'Clock. On request of the Civics
committee it was voted to suspend
Arfin 0f L~xrI
for the December meeting The
thanks of the teachers and pupils
of the public schools for the lecture
given them in October were voiced
by Miss Caroline S. Woodruff.
The speakers of the afternoon
were Mrs. Emily Noyes whose SUBJ
ject was "The Club and her paper
was delightful putting together of
the main doings in the 10 years his
tory of the club and an optimistic
outlook for the future of the club in
it's new home, where so much can
be done that was impossible in the
earlier years of the clubs life. The
second speaker, DR.. Alice E. Wake
field, handled the unpleasant SUBJ
ject of Sex Hygiene in a way that
was. most delicate and yet made
every woman of intelligence realize
do never uelOTe CH0 meHaHco WHICH
threatens the world in the F'social
evil" The music committee furnish
ed the club two beautifully rendered
solos by Frank H. Brooks.
After a rising vote of thanks to
the speakers, the social committee
served tea and waters and a social
lour was enjoyed, during which
Miss Wylna Hudson made announce
ment of the classes she has ARRANGED
o hold.

BUSINESS ACTIVITY
Towle maple Products Company
Working Over Time. Large
Shipments Being Made.

One thing for which Vermont is
noted, is its maple sugar and this
sugar is said to be the sweetest in
| in the world. In addition to this it
should be said that a large portion
of this sugar comes from st. Johns
bury and that the Towle Maple Pro-
ducts Company is responsible for
letting the public at large know Just
how sweet and nice this Vermont
sugar is. The local Tow1e Maple
Products Company, which is a branch
of the ST. Paul Company, began bus
mess in town about April 1st,e last
year, and already their business has
so far outgrown the capacity of the
local plant that it is quite a prob
lem to keep caught up with orders.
This is shown by the fact that for
the past six weeks the Company have
been running from seven in the
morning until midnight of every
working day. One reason for this is
the great demand for the Towle Log
Cabin Syrup, which, without ques-
ton has the widest sale of any maple
syrup sold in the United States or
foreign countries. Just last week
large order of this celebrated syrup
was shipped to Japan, Italy and Man
liza.
A farmer who has made maple
sugar would be surprised if he could
witness the up-to-date method of re-
melting the maple sugar bought of
him and the filling of various kinds
of receptacles with the maple sugar.
The maple syrup which has been
purchased from the farmer is placed
into two $50 gallon and four $50
gallon copper kettles. This sugar is
remelted by steam until it has reach
ed the correct specific gravity and
then it is pumped through a filter
press which removes any dirt or
n1tre which may be in the sugar,
into four large storage tanks which
nave a capacity of $50 gallons each.
Then as needed, it is piped down
stairs to copper kettles where it is
reheated by steam and then passes
into the filling machine which fills
six receptacles of any kind at the
same time. From there the syrup
passes to the Gaping machine which
automatically caps the can or bot
tie with the crown stopper or another
machine which corks the receptacle
as the case may be.
The Towle Company also have a
patent crimper for cans which is a |
patent of their own invention. Be
fore the goods are packed every
thing is weighed to see if it is cor
rect. There is also dry kiln for
heating bottles when the syrup is |
packed in bottles and this saves a |
large amount of breakage.
The Towle Log Cabin Syrup is put
up in almost every kind and shaped
receptacle from five gallon cans to
SIX ounce bottles or quart jars The
cake sugar is made in several differ
ent forms, but especial attention is
given to the small Log Cabin cakes
Tor which the Company is famous.
Besides the rooms already mentioned
hey have a labelling room, boiler
'oom which furnishes steam for heat
ng the sugar, several storage rooms
md shipping room. The company
ire doing thriving business at this
'ranch and shipping goods all over
he world and carload orders are the
Usual orders received and it is safe to
ay that no other company deals so
in maple products.

portant feature of the case.
Beams Alleged Crime.
The crime was one of the most
atrocious in the criminal history of
Vermont, and the first intimation
that the people of Maidstone had of
the affair was about four o'clock in
the afternoon of March 9, when
Bean, carrying rife, ran up the
tracks of the Maine Central railroad.
Section hands asked him what was
the matter and he replied that his
