Nitrate Of Soda on Old Meadows.

On an old meadow which has
not been properly fertilized a top
dressing of nitrate of soda is al
most certain to show very marked
results. The farmer is likely to
be so enthusiastic over the show
ing made that he at once con-
cludes that nitrogen is the one
factor needed to make his hay
crop profitable one. Right here
lies the danger. While the first
applicationg of nitrate of soda
may show these marked results,
it is not by any means safe to
conclude that nitrogen is the only
element of fertility needed. Re-
peated applications of nitrate of
soda may soon result in no ap-
parent benefit and even result in
a final condition worse than the
original condition. The first ap-
plication of nitrate of soda shows
such marked results because
there is marked deficiency of nj
trogen in the soil; but there is not
sufficient of the other fertilizing
elements, particularly phosphor-
us and potassium, to balance the
nitrogen used. The increased
crop yields from the use of nj
trate of soda make an increased
drain upon the available phos-
phorus and potassium of the soil.
No effort being made to replace
these elements thus removed, the
time very soon comes when no
response is received from the ap-
pIication of nitrate of soda be-
cause the phosphoric acid and
potash have been depleted, or, in
other words, are the limiting fac
tors. AS a rule, where nitrate
of soda is used as a fertilizer it is
a safe principle to use in connec-
tion with it some form of phos-
phorus and potassium, having in
mind permanent results rather
than a temporary increase due to
the nitrate of soda.

Whistles Necessary.

Chambersburg seems to have
citizens who are complaining
about the CUMBERLAND Valley
trainmen because they blow their
whistles at night, and thereby
disturb sweet slumber. The
Public Opinion, in defending
necessary signal whistling, winds
up with the following: "The
next time a whistle gets on your
nerves at night, don't think of
the whistle, but think of Fulton
County. They are not troubled
with whistles there, but think of
the trouble they have in making
a journey or getting merchan-
dise."

had Rejuyenating Trip.

W. H. Duffy and son H. A.
Duffy, took advantage .of the
bracing atmosphere of yuesday
morning to take couple of days
off and get the dust of the mill
out of their lungs by taking a
spin to Huntingdon county in
their auto. The elder Duffy was
born the section between
Three Springs and Orbisonia, and
he thought it would be nice to
to visit the scenes of boyhood.
Accordingly, they overhauled
their locomotive, and bright and
early, started and went by way
of Burnt Cabins, Shade Gap and
Orbisonia, stopping enroute to
see old acquaintance, and by the
time they returned home, next
day, Mr.. Duffy was at least ten
years younger than when he
started; and he wasn't "old"
when he started, either.

Our Question Of Water.

: State board Of Health from citi-
zens, that institution sent a rep
reseptative, Mr.. Ira F, Zeigler,
of Carlisle, to examine the con-
ditions under which this town is
being furnished water for house
hold purposes.
We have been advised that a
month ago, the Water Company
notified the State Department of
the use the road makers are
making Of the ravines. The fol-
lowing account of what has taken
place during the last few days is
as nearly correct as we can con-
dense it so as to be fair to all
concerned.
MIR. Zeigler arrived Saturday
and Immediately inspected the
slopes'that drain into Che chan
nels that conduct water to the
reservoir. Among the objec-
tionable features found along the
source of supply were: The force
of men who are repairing the

Der, finds its way into reser-
yoir: No properly guarded privy
was provided for the colored peo-
pie who live within fifty feet of
the reservoir channel, and whose
hog pen drained into the chan
mel. Mr. Zeigler wasted no time
by having the water analysed, .
because the possibility of con-
tamination was so evident, that |
he Immediately caused notices to |
be posted by the local board of |
health to the effect that the WA |
ter should be boiled for twenty |
minutes before using it for any
purpose whatever, such as for
drinking, dishwashing, cleaning
teeth, or for any purpose in
which the water could find en-
trance to the mouth or stomach.
Handkerchieves washed, but not
boiled, in the water can carry
disease. In addition to the above
posted notices and the ones in
the town papers, a messenger
was sent to every house in town,
instructing the occupants to boil
the water. Notice Mr.. Zeigler
did not say that the water was
now contaminated to the extent
that the above would indicate,
but he did say that conditions al
ready existed that could make it
50 in case of hard dash of rain
similar to last weeks rain. Since
all of us know how hard it rained
last week, we may draw our own
conclusions, and we advise care.
We understand that the fore
man of the road gang of workers
has been instructed to provide
suitable places of retirement for
his men, while working on the
mountain, and quicklime is to be
used at all times to disinfect of
fensive matter, and that the men
must use care in selecting such ,,
places. The colored people did
not lose any time in moving their
hogs to another slope, and the
owner of the premises has been
notified to provide a privy at a
point where its contents will not
,ontaminate the water. !

Science of Management.

Management, or the science of exc
cution and administration, Is some
thing which requires a specific and
distinct training, not simply superior
degree of skill in the performance OF
subordinate tasks; and our varied re-
sources will not be utilized to their
proper and full extent until this is
generally and completely realized. The
ideal manager should have broad,
liberal education rather than inten-
sive experience in any one line, such
as financier, salesman, producer or &C
countant. 1t is the writer5s belief that
no adequate foundation for the work
is now being laid in any educational
institution in this country. Here in
struction in fundamental principles is
of primary and in details of second
airy importance. Great effort should
be made to train a mind to analyZe,
to digest, to reason. to compare, to
deduce and, finally. to arrive at we'll
rounded, logical, wise decisions. Much
attention should also be paid to the
art of so communicating ones deci-
sions to the mind Of another. with re-
gard to their degree of intellectual de-
velopment. that the desired impress
sion will be created and the desired
result follow as matter of course

but to have on a plain overall and to
be able to rush about the garden with
some of her animals is joy. Once on
their return from the country to
Rome the royal family drove in semi
state up to the palace, and Princess
Yolanda. in her best clothes, bowed
graciously to the cheering people all
the way, frequently admonishing her
younger sisters to do the same. When
she reached the palace she rushed up
to the nurseries in great haste to get
more serviceable frock, and noticed
that papering and whitewashing had
been going on and everything was
very clean and white everywhere. In
dismay at these fearfully clean sur
roundings, which she knew meant
more care about dirty fingers and
dusty boots, she ran out into the gar
den to find her chief pet, Toto, the
donkey, and said, with relief in every
syllable: well, it's blessing they
haven't whitewashed you, too, and
promptly rolled in the dust to rid her
self of the "mind-your-p's-and
