But Mrs. Maddox had gone over to
the enemy, and she proceeded to show
how they could all leave the city late
on wednesday afternoon and return
early on Friday morning, send regrets
to the Changers, return their matinee
tickets and defer Mary Thomas din
ner invitation until Christmas time.
After all, Aunt Barbara is getting
old and We ought to make an effort TO
co. Maddox said. SO all the details
were arranged and the family set
tied back in a state of expectancy,
awaiting the written invitation.
Every day the youngest Maddox met
the postman, demanding a letter from
his great aunt, but the days passed,
and none came. During the last week
before the holiday the interest Of
the family became almost feverish.
Four days before the feast Mrs. Mad
dox spoke of writing a note to Aunt
Barbara accepting the alleged invita-
ton conveyed by Mrs. Lawler. But
the others argued that II Aunt Bar
bara had forgotten to send a formal
invitation, she was not expecting
formal acceptance. She takes ST.
lence for consent, and she's too busy
making pies to write Jack said.
The day before Thanksgiving came
around, but no letter from Aunt Bar
bara. The family held council at break,
fast. "Of course, she expects U.s." Mar
ion observed. She's absent-minded,
and she probably wrote letter and
stuck it behind the clock, waiting for
somebody to go TO the postoffice"
1t was agreed that Maddox and
.5ack should return early from the Of
fee, then they would all take an eve
ming train to the country and drop
in on their aunt just at bedtime Mrs.
Maddox told the cook and hOusemald
that they could go away Immediately
after lunch and not return until FRI
day.

1T would be fine to go there" Mar
ion remarked. Her pumpkin pies
are about three inches deep, and her
turkeys are always cooked to a Titan

delicious"
The youngest of the Maddox family
was overcome by the fervor of this
description. 'oh, let's all go TO Aunt
Barbara's for Thanksgiving" he
cried

mother.

Farm Yard Manure

capacities-both directly and indirect
ly-and to this class belong green
manures. composts, sewage and farm
yard manure. The most striking
example, however, of such double
acting manure is farmyard manure.
Farmyard manure divides itself
naturally into two classes solid and
liquid. The sold manure consists of
the solid excrement of the animals,
together with the organic matter in
the form of litter, or bedding mixed
with 1T. The liquid manure consists
of the urine and the rain water that
has leached through the pile.
Since the value of manure is de-
termined by the amount Of the nitro
gen, phosphoric acid and potash it
contains, let us consider briefly the
composition of these animal ex-
crements.
The chemical composition and
quantity of the excreta of animals
depend very largely on the KIND and
quantity of food consumed, the age
and condition OF the animal, whether
fattening, working or milking, and
other circumstances. This is espe-
ciaIly true of the solid portion which
consists mainly of water which holds
in solution WORKOUT organic tissues
separated from the blood.
The following table gives the per-
centage amounts of nitrogen, potash
and phosphoric acid of the excrements
of the common farm animals:
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-05-01
MANURIAL VALUE OF FARM
PRODUCTS.

In the above table nitrogen is figured
at IT cents per pound, phosphoric acid
at seven cents and potash at four
cents. At the present time nitrogen
in the form of available nitrates costs
about 20 cents, phosphoric acid five
cents and potash six cents. While
phosphoric acid is two cents per
pound cheaper, nitrogen is three cents
and potash two cents dearer.
1t is evident from the foregoing fig
ure that system of farming in which
the selling of crops is the chief source
of revenue, will sooner or later defeat
itself. lf, instead of selling off the
crops, they are fed to live stock on
the farm, large percentage of this
fertilizer is retained on the farm.
sit should be clearly understood,
says w. HI. Beale, "that when the
farmer sells meat, milk, grain, hay,
fruits, vegetables, etc., from his farm

centage of the potash is also con tanned
in the urine.
Only small portion of the fresh
material Of the solid excrements is
also determined by the amount of
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash
soluble in water and for this reason
they are less valuable than the liquid
urine. However, by exposure to air
and moisture these substances enter
into putrefaction and liberate the
nitrogen they contain as ammonia
and at the same time their other
constituents become of greater ma
mural value as they are rendered more
soluble by this action. Since the
solid and liquid excrements each
contain substances absent, or nearly
so, in the other, it is evident that
they are of more value when applied
together, in which case they form
what is known as a complete fer
tilizer.

By l.. J. Chaplin, Agronomist,
Western Washington Experiment Sta
ton, Puyallup, Wash.
The word manure may be applied to
any substance which by its applica
tion contributes to the fertility of the
soil. OF the substances necessary to
plant growth the only ones likely to
be lacking in the solid are nitrogen,
Nphosphoric acid and potash. A
manure, therefore, is ordinarily un
derstood to be any substance contain
ing these ingredients either singly or
together. In fact the value of a
manure is determined chiefly by the
amount of these substances contained.
Some substances act upon the inert
fertilizing matter of the soil convert
ing it into more readily available
form; others improve the texture Of
the soil, influencing its physical
properties. All such substances &C.
cording to the above definition Of a
manure must be included under the
term. Manure may therefore be
divided into different classes accord
ing to their respective action.
Two principal classes of manure
have been suggested. % those sup.
plying to the soil necessary plant food
constituents and thus contributing
directly to fertility; and (2) those
influencing soil fertility in an indirect
manner. The first class may be called
direct manure and the second in

value of about five dollars and thirty

chased in commercial forms they
would cost about five dollars and

in England, estimate that 80 per cent
of the fertility of fodder is, as rule,
returned in the manure.

Armsby, are given the amount and

Plans To Tour U. S., Enters
Hospital Service.

VIENNA, Aug. 2S.-Local court cir
Giles have been startled by the news
that Countess DeKoretich, the young
widow Of Count Charles Felix De
koretich, of Austria, is a nurse in the
Jewish Home for the Aged, conducted
by the Daughters of Jacob, at No. 301
East Broadway, New York. Countess
DekOretich became known throughout
Europe as a toe dancer when only sew
enteen years old AT the height of her
career she became the wife of Count
DeKOretich, a lieutenant in the King S
Dragons, Three years ago her hus-
band died. She returned to the stage.
1t was while she was giving an ex-
hibitiOn of barefoot toe dancing in the
Ring Garden of Vienna that she at
tracted the attention of Shubert. A
few days before an American tour was
to begin the countess sprained her
ankle in a street car accident. AS the
weeks passed 1t became evident that
she would probably never be able to
resume her career as a dancer,
She bore up under this blow and
pluckily decided to study medicine. Her
father was DR. julius Ifkovitch, sur
geOn of Vienna
DR.. David Robbins, her physician,
advised the countess TO first become a
trained nurse Handicapped by her
slight knowledge of English, she de-
termined to study that language as a
preliminary to taking up medicine.
