About Fertilizers.

Editor G. V. News Quite right
you are, Mr.. Editor, in the position
you take in regard to he use of fer
tilizers-the sooner our farmers get
away from high sounding names and
buy their fertilizers by the analysis
the better it will be for them. The
brands are gotten up solely for the
dealer and his bait catches lots of
suckers.
You are correct in your view of the
1922 goods sold by all dealers. This
means 16O pounds phosphoric acid,
40 pounds nitrogen, and 40 pounds of
potash and 1760 pounds of ----
to every ton. Most farmers use 200
pounds per acre-this will give l6
pounds phosphoric acid, a pounds
nitrogen and a pounds potash per acre
and to say that this amount of these
goods will produce results is asolute-
ly ridiculous.
No doubt, Mr.. Editor, you are
criticized for your article and called
a book farmer" but that should
not worry you, for the "book farm
ers" of today will be the bank ors
tomorrow he will be able to show
the farmers, who are in the bonds of
tradition, how to make n profit on
lands that cost 5000 per acre; also
how to. take $25 land and make it
worth the 5000 per acre.
The day is here when brains, not
Drawn; science, not Gathers way"
Is doing more for the American farm
er than all the fertilizers factories
with their high sounding brands and
formulas can ever do, and the farmer
who ignores this question of Scientific
Agriculture, who is not mixing brains
with his soil, is doomed to failure.

FOR FLETCRER'S
9 a 8 Q RIA
Ground Limestone or Burned
Lime

As a general rule, we may safely
let the price of these two forms of
lime determine which we shall use.
OF course. the per cent of actual lime
they contain is also of Importance and
there may be certain conditions or
soils when one or the other would be
preferable; but as general rule,
given limestone burned or finally
ground of equal purity from fore ign
matters we would determine which to
use by the price.
If the same lime rock is burned or
ground finely. 100 pounds of the
burned lime will contain about the
same amount of actual lime as I78
pounds of the ground lime rock.
If it costs as much to apply 100
pounds of burned lime rock to the
land as to apply 17S pounds of
ground rock. we would. for general
use, care little as to which form was
used. But the freight and cost of
labor will be more in putting 178
pounds of ground lime rock in the
land than in putting on 100 pounds of
burned lime. The freight will be
about 7S per cent more on the
ground lime rock than on the burned
lime,if the same price per hundred
is charged. 1t is true, that the trouble
of handling and shaking the burned
lime will be greater and more disa-
greeable than the handling of the
ground lime rock, but this is offset by
the greater quantity of ground lime
70 * which must be handled. To COM
pletely counter balance the increased
cost of handling from the railroad to
the farm and the slower action of the
ground lime rock, it should be laid
down at the nearest railroad station
for less than one-half the cost OF lay
ing down burned lime.
When proper facilities for grinding
are possessed and freight rates are
reasonable, the ground rock can be
laid down at price which makes its
use preferable to burned lime, in
most cases and for general farm use
For peaty soils or those having an
excess of organic matter which has
not properly decayed we would prefer
the burned lime, but for all other
purposes, if the ground lime rock can
be laid down for one-half the cost per
ton of burned lime or less, we advise
the use of the ground limestone.
In buying ground lime rock our
reader should be careful to investi-
gate the character of rock nse,i, that
is the per cent of actual lime it con-
tains, and the degree of fineness to
which it is ground. The finer it is
ground the better.
When ground lime rock is used, it
is probably best to apply not less
than 5000 pounds per acre. THE

BROWNING AND SLEMP

Colonel James S. Browning, of
Roanoke, addressed an open letter to
Congressman Slemp who is also
chairman of the Republican State
Committee, asking that some method
be adopted by which the real senti-
ment of the Republicans of the State
may be obtained as to their choice of
candidates for President. Mr.. Brown
ing's letter was a protest in so many
words against the present method of
electing delegates to the national
conventions entirely. or nearly so,
from the office holding class. Of
course Mr.. Slemp, even if he had the
power, would refuse any such sugges-
tion. In reply to Colonel Browning
he says he has no authority to make
any change in the present plan of
electing delegates to the national
conventio which nominates a candi-
date Tor President.
The policy of the Republicans in
this State and throughout the South,
ia inevitably and invariably to
Heartily endorse the administra-
ton" of the man who sits as dispen-
ser of pie in. Washington. The leaders
OF the party, who are always office
holders, attend all county conven-
tions and see to it that delegates of
the right kind of appetite are elected
to the nominating convention.
When Mr.. Taft was nominated in
1908 the figures as given by the
Review of Reviews show that eighty
per cent of the delegates were office
holders then or given office after
wards. One half of the votes neces-
sary to control the Republican
national convention are furnished by
eleven Southern States, not a single
one of which states has given its
electoral vote to a Republican Presi
dent for 35 years. Eleven Southern
States, in 1908 furnished about one
half of the 491 necessary majority
to the Convention which nominated
MIR. Taft, and not a single one of
these States represented in the con-
vention gave him its electoral vote.
For instance. South Carolina, with
less than 1000 Republican votes, will
have 18 Taft delegates in the Con-
vention, about Is of whom will be
Office holders. The Southern Republi-
can machines are made up almost
entirely of Government officials. the
machines themselves nothing but
brokerage corporations dealing in
federal patronage. Here and there
like Col. Browning, there is revolt
against this state of things-a feeble
effort made for political freedom. but
the powers that be-the dispensers of
the jobs, control things, and the rank
and file are fried on one side this
time, and the next time turned over
and fried on the other side, as their
part Of the game. We see no hope cor
Col. Browning unless the unexpected
should happen and Mr.. Roosevelt be
elected President next time. Then
ne will have his inning. What will be
done to the pie brigade then will be
a sight to behold.

WILSON THE CHOICE.

One of the speakers In the Demo-
cratic Mass Meeting on Tuesday said
that Woodrow Wilson was the popu-
lar Dem ocratic candidate for Pres-
dent, "from one end of the country to
the other" his only formidable rival
being Champ Clark; that Governor
Harmon is not in it; that he is the
candidate of the machine and the
trusts.
The Review of Reviews says that
"the most widespread and spontan-
eous Democratic sentiment is for
Governor Wilson . = There are parts
of the country where the demand for
Bryan is large enough to show him as
remaining the popular idol of the
Democratic masses, and there can be
no doubt of the strong position Gov
ernor Harmon holds in the confidence
of the well informed Democrats. !"

Mr.. Bryan says that Mr. Roose-
velt's policies, as recently set forth
by him in addresses, lead inevitably
to socialism. The Socialists, in this
country, as well as in Europe, are
strong and growing stronger. In 1910
the socialist vote in the United
States was nearly $50, 900. The vote
in 1908 for socialist candidate for
President was about 421, 900. Is Mr..
Roosevelt trimming his sails?

WICkERSHAM MOVES
AGAINST COFFEE TRUST
Attorney ceDeraI Files Suit in Equity
Against the Backers OF Brazilian
vaIorization Scheme.

New York-Attorney General Wick
ersham on Saturday moved against the
so-called coffee scheme. In petition
in equity filed in the United States
court here the valorization plan is de
clared to be violation Of the Sher.
man antitrust law
The court is asked to decree the
scheme unlawful, to enJoin the valor-
ization committee from withholding
coffee from the market and to appoint
a receiver to sell the $4,000 bags, val
ued at S10,000,000, now alleged to be
stored in warehouses of the New York
Dock company.
The government also applied for a
temporary injunction restraining the
valorization committee from removing
or disposing of coffee held in America
pending the termination of the issue
The members of the yalorization
committee have agreed among them
selves, the government charges, to
withhold from the market large guam
titles of coffee under their control for
raising the price to an unreasonable
extent. They have thus attempted, it
is declared, to restrain the coffee trade
throughout the world
