Plant Food In Soil.

Plant food in the soil Is largely in
an unfavorable condition. Before the
potash. phosphorus and nitrogen be-
come available the soil must pass
through the stage Of disintegration
and chemical change, which can take
place only under favorable conditions.
There must be present moisture, heat
and air. These are largely controlled
by cultivation and climatic conditions.
The method of cultivation which will
bring about these conditions is the
one that is best for the farmer who Is
handling the land.

the dividing line; bottom or the
waist may be OF the tafeta, or only
the sleeves and belt and peplum, TOT
these old-time little tails are as plen-
tiful as blackberries in August. one
stunning bodice seen recently was OIL
white chiffon and black taffeta, with
which had been thrown In some wisps
OF black chantilly and delicate silver
embroideries. But the chiffon part of

Bulgarian reds, blues. green's and pur-
pies and Colds flashed richly from this
unique decking, which appeared only
on the wide sleeves of the waist and
in a brooch OF immense dimensions
that held the bodice at the bust.
