The Memorial address in Perrys-
burg will be delivered bv Hon. E. G.
McClelland of Bowling Green, one of
the most able Attorneys of the Wood
county bar, and one OF the most highly
respected citizens of the county.
Mr.. McClelland was not soldier be-
cause he was not born early enough
to enable him to show his loyalty to
his country in that manner, but he is
the son of veteran who went out in
the service of Uncle Sam and gave his
best effort and devotion to the cause
of his country, and who bequeathed
to his son high ideal of American
citizenship and sturdy, honest man
hood. Mr.. McClelland will give our
people an address well worthy the
day and cause of which he will speak
and should be greeted with large
audience.

Columbus, o., March %, 1913.
Why the Fertilizers Failed.

Columbus, o., March %, 1913.
Why the Fertilizers Failed.
"Many farmers expect entirely too
much of commercial fertilizers" says
an instructor for the College of Ag
riculture, Ohio State niversity. "They
forget that the physical condition of
the soil is often just as important as
the supply of available plant food.
The condition of the soil depends
largely upon the amount of decaying
organic matter it contains. By it clay
soils are kept loose and we'll aerated,
are more easily drained and at the
same time capable of holding more
water in an available form. They
have less tendency to surface wash
ing, heaving, and extremes of tenn
perature when well supplied with or
ganic matter. Sandy soils are made
more compact, more retentive Of
moisture and plant food. In all soils
the acids produced by the decay of
organic matter are the chief agents in
getting into usable form the plant
| food locked up in their insoluble min
eral particles. If disappointing re-
suits attend the use of fertilizers, it
is we'll for the farmer to ask himself
if he has made sufficient use of barn
yard manure, heavy sods and green
manuring crops, in maintaining the
supply of organic matter of the soil.'
County Farm Experts.
The system of county agricultural
experts under the joint supervision of
federal and state government gets
little sympathy from H. c. Price,
dean of the College of Agriculture,
Ohio State University. at has with
in it the possibilities of abuse and
political patronage compared with
which our free seed distribution
would be but a mere bagatelle," he
declares. The establishment of coun-
| ty experiment farms under the SUI
pervision of the state agricultural ex-
pertinent station is a far more log
ical development according to his way
of thinking. These farms would serve
as demonstration farms on which pure
bred seed and pure bred live stock
could be developed, they would give
opportunity for working out systems
of farm management under the con-
troll of the county expert, which is moi
always the case when such work Is
done on private farms. "This would
give something tangible for the ex-
pert to work on and something per-
manent to develop" says Prof. Price
"The relation of the federal govern,
ment to such work, l believe, should
be incidental and it should be pri-
marily state work under the super
vision and control of the state III
which it is carried out"

Ii will be recalled that 1t was diff
cult matter to obtain thorough in.
vestigation of the money trust at the
hands of the Democratic House of
Representatives last year. The Dem
ocrats did everything possible towards
making the investigation farce and
it was not until the pressure of public
opinion became very emphatic that
the investigation assumed the charac-
ter of real sincerity.

Enormous Wealth Of tho eorqlas.

A large proportion of the wealth of
the Borgias appears to have come
down to their descendant, the duke of
Ossuna, who figures in Disraeli's let
ters. In 1867 the duke was appointed
Spanish ambassador at st. Peters
burg.
He accepted the post on condition
that the government would distribute
his salary among ae poor of Madrid,
as he could not condescend to draw
money from the state. The duke was
then described as "the wealthiest man
in Europe" His property extends
from Cadiz to Turin. He could travel
by coach from Madrid through France
and Germany to Warsaw and sleep
every night in one of his own castles.

The Governor reviews this at length
and in conclusion, states: 81 believe
that the existing law is sufficient to
cover all real cases of blacklis ting,

fective, the terms of this bill go be-
yound the limits of sound and ration

serious evil

to be in violation to Section II of Ar

THE PLAY
LAST EVENING

The production last evening at the
Grand of The Mountain Wait" by
The Zeke Country Boy Company,
drew a fairly goodsized audience
which appeared to be well pleased
with the play. The worthless mig
ger character was the heavy part and
his act was well carried out So long
as the audience was pleased is all
that is necessary in any production
and the performance was fairly
good one. The motion picture 'In
The Dawning' is an excellent photo
play and was highly appreciated.
Considerable unfavorable comment
was heard owing to the fact that the
management of the show had an
nounced beforehand that the prices
would be Is and SO cents and dance
would be given after the show At
the end of the play last night it was
announced that an extra so cents
would be charged for the dance. As
a result there were not very many
