pounds of lint cotton to the acre.
We don't know what he made last
year.
Any ginner who has ever kept tab
on it vii! tell you that 1900 pounds
Of seed cotton that has been side
dressed will turn out as heavy a bale
Of cotton as 1900 pounds of seed
cotton that has not been side-dress-
ed We were told that last fall by
a ginner, and we took up the matter
with other ginners. and every man Of
them who investigated it agreed to
It. The side-dressing develops the
lint and makes more of it. The ex-
cess Of lint on the seed will more
than pay for the fertilizer.
This promises to be a good year
to make al the cotton, cotton seed,
corn, forage and every other crop
possible, as indications are now that
that all these will be in demand at
good prices. for it looks now as If
there isn't going to be any bumper"
crops Of any kind this year. and we
naturally expect good prices, and
you all know how fast crop counts
up when you get good prices. :.
This seems to be the time Of all
times to side-dress with an open
hand and make every pound OF cyoy
possible. when al crops will be uaed,.
ed at prices that Will mean money
TO tho producers.
Think it over If you don't think
heavy side-dressing pays, why, Of
course, we wouldn't use any. liz
fact, If didn't think fertilizer paid,
I wouldn't use any at all. But if
you decide it will not only pay for
itself and make you several times it's
cost in clear profit, then you will
need no argument as to what to do
about making this application.
Our advice Is to apply some good
fertilizer literally, and just as early
as possible. Don't wait too long to
apply it If you expect the best re-
suits, especially on cotton.
Now, remember: Our 4-1O-2 and
our 4-7-2 are in class to them
selves when it comes to side-dress-
ing.
We recommend them to you with
our old reliable S-4-4 goods, and
know that If you will use them lib
orally they will pay you a profit OF
several times their cost, to say moth
ing Of making a crop you will be
proud Of, and 1t will build up, in
stead Of exhaust, your land--an
item in itself worth more to you
than the cost Of the goods.
From every standpoint it will pay
you to side-dress literally, and If
you do you can't find anything to
use in the class with our goods.

Philharmonic Concert.

Before q much better audience
than that which witnessed Its frat
appearance, the Philharmonic club
gave its second weekly concert at the
Majestic yesterday afternoon. With
selections measuring up to those of
any professional musical program,
the rendering was excellent In every
respect and the entire concert was a
deserved success.
The overture OF selections from
the Bohemian Girl" by the Santos
orchestra was very pleasing to the
audience, while Miss O'Hare added
new laurels to her fame as a soloist
| by the Floral Wedding Song" from
the "Tattooed Man" opera. Miss
O'Hare, unfortunately was suffering
from a cold. but this fact did not
prevent the composition from being
sung in all its effective beauty. She
was assisted in the chorus by an oc-
tette of ladies behind the scenes.
THE Swedish Wedding March"
was also q well played number by the
orchestra.
Sr. Santos was at his best In the
Wagnerian "Fantazia" and received
plenty of proof of his success in the
applause of the audience.
One OF the best numbers was the
duet by Miss Meldoh Scheu and j.
Warren Fletcher. singing In the
Cross of Christ We Glory" This was
Miss Scheu's first appearance in
public and her sweet voice was shown
to good advantage. Doubtless she
will be in demand for future con-
certs. Mr.. Fletcher's voice was Mt
| it's best and the duo received salvo
of applause.
The Lucia seytette arrangement of
the orchestra was we'll rendered, but
the unfortunate absence of the tuba
and double bass prevented all the
| best strains of the number from re-
ceiving the most satisfactory treat
ment Nevertheless the work was
appreciated.
Mr.. Greig was enthusiastically en-
cored on his flute solo, Longing
for Home" which he responded 10
with gay little composition by Mar
tin.

was forced to repeat the last stanza

the program.

EQUAL FRANCHISE LEAGUES CONVENE
 AT NEW HAVEN

New Haven. Bridgeport, Hartford, Greenwich, New London and Meri- den, all possess strong and we'll or ganized Equal Franchise leagues, and
 these leagues are now in line to sup
 port strongly and generously the
 work of the Connecticut Woman Suf-
 frage association in it's state cam
 paigns. The first four of these leagues
 are each prepared to pledge $1, 600 to
 the State Association when the an-
 nrral convention is held in New Haven
 on October 31 and November l. The
 other leagues which have fewer mem
 bers will follow with the pledges
 their size and the remaining thirty odd leagues which are scattered all over the state will respond to the ut most of their power.
 The first work that will be under taken by the State association will be campaign through the second sized cities of Connecticut-thoseI with population from 5000 to 20, GOO The cities include Ansonia. Derby, Bristol, Naugatuck, Orange, West Haven), Putnam, Rockville, Thomp- sonville, Torrington, Wa1lingford Willimantic and Winsted. In each of these cities the state organizer, Miss Emily Pferson, and her band of workers, will spend a whole week working up to mass meeting tow ards the close and it is the hope of the association that not one of these cities will be left at the close of the campaign without a strong and wig orous Equal Franchise league being organized there to continue the pro- paganda for Votes for Women

WOMAN FINDS HUMOR

New York, Oct i7-Mdss Alberta | Hill has demonstrated that it is pos- sfble to get not only logic burt humor out of the tariff question.

 At the Woman,g meeting, held at the

 Old Time Republican Tells Why He
 Supports Wilson.
 New York, Oct 17-F w McAI1is- ter, head of the F. W. McA11ister Co., of Baltimore, a life long Republican, gives the following reasons why he will vote for Governor Wilson:
 .'Of all the candidates who are run ming for President I consider MT. Will son the best have voted consist ent1y for all the Republican candidates for President in the last S5 years, but I cannot support my party this year. Both the Republican and the Bull trol of the big trusts. I am opposed and I. therefore, consider it to be my duty to support him.
 believe our industries and espec- tally the large industries, have been protected long enough. They should now be able to take care of them selves. Governor Wilson's stand on the tarin suits me exactly. He is honest and fearless, and believe he will do just what he says he will do. His addresses have interested me very much. He is direct and business-Iike in all he says and does.''
