"The Intolerance of the Clergy"
the Editor of The Age-Herald.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
Ir yesterdays issue of The Age-Herald
under the news of Decatur it is stated
that the pastors of the two Decaturs res
oluted strongly against the executive cle-
mency of Governor O'Neal in paroling two
soft drink merchants, who had been found
guilty of purveying refreshments, not
quite so soft as their licenses called for.
To atone for this offense against the ma
jesty of the Decaturs they were doing
time for the county. Their parole was
conditional-the abandonment of their
crude way of doing business without a
license. Now, had those two men conf
mitted some grave outrage against their
some poor old working people of all their
life long savings, or even embezzled some
few trifling thousand dollars from some
bank, or acted the part of the gold bandit
train robber, or the desperate hold up
man of the highways, then indeed those
faithful shepherds of the flock of God
might have had some color for their
strong resolution.
But when the offense, inS plain English,
is simply selling goods without a license.
1t seems that those disciples of the gen
tie Nazarene might have rejoiced with
gladsome minds that the grand old state
of Alabama had as her chief ma gstrate
and governor man full of compassion
and rich in pardons and paroles.
Not so, howeN er, had those earnest

Solving Fertilizer Problems at Auburn

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
Farmers who read The Age Herald
viii be interested in the results of fer
tilizer experiments with cotton which
were conducted by the Alabama expert
ment station in the northern half of
Alabama in 1912; these are contained
in bulletin now being mailed out from
Auburn.
As a rule, these experiments indicated
that a complete fertilizer was most
profitable, that is, one consisting, for
example, of cotton seed meal, acid phos-
phate and kainit in various proportions
In an experiment conducted .by Hon
w. P. Letson, in Marion county, near
Glen Allen, on a light colored sandy
soil, with a red subsoil, the largest
profit was made on the plot fertilized
with 240 pounds of acid phosphate and
100 pounds kainit, and 100 pounds
nitrate of soda per acre, the latter ap-
piled after growth began. This was
closely followed in profit by the plot
which received only cotton seed meal
and acid phosphate. On both plots there
was net profit of 400 per cent or bet
ter on the' ipyestment in fertilizers.
j The detailed results of these and of
many other Fertilizer experiments are
recorded in the bulletin of the expert
ment station just mentioned This is
being mailed to all. addressed in north
Alabama now on the station mailing
list and it will also be sent to all
others who apply for it, A correspond
ing pamphlet recording results of sim
liar experiments in the counties of south
Alabama was recently issued by the ex-
pertinent station at Auburn.
This experiment is part of a series
of experiments conducted under small

New York, February 21.--Dun's review
tomorrow will say
In volume of distribution business con-
tinues on a very liberal scale, although
the spirit of conservatism which has char
acterized the situation for so long a time
still continues. While there is a notable
absence of speculative activity the prin-
cipal trades and industries show a steady
eXpension as compared with the corre-
spending period a year ago, although in
certain lines, and especially in some To-
calities, there has been lately some slow
ing down in the business advance. The
week has witnessed the triumph of one of
the revolutionary parties in Mexico, a
change for the better in the peace pros
poets for the Balkan war and an agree
ment to arbitrate the dispute between the
eastern American railroads and their fire.
men.
The heavy railroad purchases of equip
ment continues to constitute the chief
feature of the iron and steel industry. The
retail demand for the leading textiles dis
plays activity, and both the manufac-
ttrers and the distributors report a sea-
sonable business, but the clothing strike
and the tariff uncertainty made for con-
siderable conservatism.
