A strike of the union employees
of the Boston Elevated, which
controls the surface and subway
lines, was called at Ais o'clock

The elevated officials laughed
at the strike. When the union was

elevated set about a counter or

who refused to recognize the
strike order roughly handled,
sleepers were put on the tracks,

valuable and necessary process Of
decay is hindcred II the soil is acid.
Therefore applications OF limestone
on acid soils may serve indirectly in
making the hunsas Of the soil OF
greatest value to growing crops II
is also evident that to obtain most
profitable results with limestone there
must be plenty Of organic matter
present.
Limestone also liberates certain
necessary plant food elements in the
soil from their insoluble combination.
A large array of figures indicate that
lime liberates potash from its more
insoluble forms thereby making it
more available for growing plants.
Phosphorus may exist in the soil,
mainly in three different combina-
tons. namely, lime phosphates, iron
phosphates and aluminium phosphate
The latter two forms are very insolu-
Bile so that phosphate in these soils
is largely unavailable to plants. Lime
phosphate on the other hand has it's
availability much increased by the
carbonated water of the soil. Con-
sequently by the use of lime which
may change some of the iron and
aluminium phosphates to lime phos-
pilates the availability of phosphorus
to plants Is Increased.
There are other and minor effects
of limestone on soils which might be
spoken of, but the space of this
article does not afford the opportun-
ity. Its main effects, however, have
been pointed out in brief way.
1t might be said in conclusion that
no extensive tests have been made
of the use of ground limestone on
acid soils in Oregon. In fact, 1t has
been very difficult to obtain this
material at a figure that would make
it profitable to the former should Its
applications prove beneficial. Some
of the fertilizer companies are now
endeavoring to make arrangements
whereby they can offer it for sale
at a low figure. Certain eastern
states such as Ohio and Illinois, have
found the use of limestone of value
for the upbuildipg of many of theil
soils. 1t seems that no general blan
ket recommendation can be made re
garding it's use. The safest rule
seems to be the actual trial of the
material on the soil itself, enough be
ing added to neutralize all the acid
lily. From the results obtained il
other states it would seem reasonable
to expect that the use Of grount
limestone might be of value for uss
on the acid soils of this state.

Natives of Germany and Ireland De-

Irflux From Russia.

Washington, d. CA preliminary
statement giving the distribution Of
the foreign-born white population of
New York city according to country
of birth, as shown by the returns of
the Thirteenth Decennial census, ia
ken as of April Is. 1910, was issued
by the bureau of the census. The sta
tistics are subject to revision.
The preliminary statement covers
only the principal Countries of birth
those in general for each of which at
the census of 1910 upwards of 1000
persons were reported-and the fig
ures for 1910 are given in round num-
bers, being subject to possible revis-
ion as the result of later tabulations.
At the census of 1900 the foreign
born white population of New York
City was 1,260,918 but at the last
census, in 1910, it had reached a to-
tai of l, 1926, 900, representing an in
crease during the 10 years of 665, 982,
or 52.7 per cent.
Natives of Germany and Ireland,
however, decreased in numbers, the
former from 324, 1913 to 279, 200, OF
1879 per cent, and the latter from
275, O73 to 252, 500, or S.2 per cent.
For the United States as a whole, ma
tives of these two countries showed q
decrease during the same period OF
11.2 and 1913 respectively.
Since 1900 atives of Great Britain,
of whom there are now in New York
City los, 300, have increased 17.3 pei
cent, and similarly natives of Canads
and Newfoundland, of whom there
are now 26, 800, have increased 49,
per cent, while natives of Norway,
Sweden and Denmark, of whom there
are now 65, 900, have increased 43.t
per cent.
The largest increases are shown
however, for natives of AustriAHun
gary, Italy, Russia and Finland, tbs
7 countries from which in recent year,
have come by far the largest proper
tion of all the immigrants to tn,
United States.
In 1910 New York City contained

The city in 1910 also contained $40,

The message was transmitted to the

"We attacked the fortified posts of
