SEASONAL NOTES.

The commercial aspect of the application
of artificial manures to growing crops is often
not fully appreciated. The efficiency of "a
manure does not depend merely on its pro-
ducing an increase of yield, the increase
produced must be sufficiently large to pay
for the cost of the manure and its applicu-
ton, and still leave a margin of profit.
Furthermore, the value of q manure does not
rest entirely upon the amount of the con-
sltuent elements or groups Of elements pre-
sent. A most important feature is the form
III which the constituents nitrogen, phos-
phOrlc acid and potash, as the case may be
occur. Snlphate Of ammonia, for instance,
contains q higher PERCENTAGE OF nitrogen
than nitrate Of soda. yet it does not act on
ratoon canes as quickly as the latter %fertiIi-
Ger. In valulng manures, q useful scale is
that adopted by the Barbados General
Agricultural Society some years ago, and re-
%producted in the agricultural NeaoS, Vol.
", p. 286.
The above remarks apply also in relation
to artiticially prepared foodstuffs for cattle.
An idea OF a foods composition is Necessary
before an estimate can be made of its value.
Nevertheless feeding experiments are also
required, since one fooastuf though chemi-
cally richer than another is not always as
simulated as readily. A case III point is
afforded by that interesting discussion which
took place at the last annual meeting of the
British Association for the Advancement of
Science. In this discussion, which was re-.
ferred to in the Agrieu1turuI Ners, Vol.
XII, P: III under the heading, The Verdict
of the Animal, it was proved that although
Bombay cotton seed cake was less rich,
chemically. than Egyptian, it produced u
greater increase in overweight. At the
same time, of course, the fuel OF IA foodstrff
varies directly with the sum of the percent
ages of albumiuoids, fats and soluble car
~bohydrates expressed in terms of starch,
though the amount available for actual work
is that which is left after supplying the
necessary energy for digestion and mainten-
ance. Ibid.

BETTER TEETH IN ANCIENT

In the Stomatological Section n paper was
cad on 'ESome Specimens of Carries from

ude "a large number Of examples OF very
/! cavities, and Mr.. r. J. Benefits inves-
,tions were made especially TO decide the
are of these early cavities, as to whether
...y were Curious or not.
-Four hundred and thirty-fve teeth were
mined; 1918 per cent. were found to
Y carUous cavities, the front teeth being
1t frequently attacked. Che point of real
rest here is that, in the case of our own
Ceasn a fair estimate OF the extent of carries
wodld be 81 per cent, The comparison is there
to"e overwhelmingly in favour of the ancient
j Dtian. The cause of the better condi-
to4 Of these teeth is probably to be found
IN ne feeding habits of the people. Bread

I'd South Carolina colored regiment, be-
ing engaged in this duty over three
months. He fought brsvely at the TAX
ing of FIT. Fisher, Fit. Wagner, Lustie,
aud other battles; and it was for gallant
and meritorious services in leading and
storming the Confederate works at TT.
Lustie, Fla, that he was decorated by
Gen. @. A. Gilmore on the field by a
beautiful bronze medal, having on one
side the profile of Gen. Gilmore and on
the diverse side the words, presented
for merit as a brave soldier" OF this
medal he was justly proud. He was of
that race of negroes known in race his
tory as Senegambians, and was a fine type
of that superior African race, who live as
agriculturists between the rivers Senegal
and Gambia in Africa, whose character
istics are that they are tall, rather light
colored and do not have the fiat noses,
kinky hair and thick lips that belong to
the Congo, Guinea and other races. OF
this he was justly proud. In all the
walks OF life he did his duty we'll as God
had given him light. He was a good citi-
zen aud a model soldier, as his life his
tory proves. He was one of the earliest
and patriotic members of Geo. Stow Post,
later joining Berlin Post at East Hickory.
Rev. W. W. Dale conducted the funeral
services at four o'clock Tuesday after
noon, followed by the interment in the
East Hickory cemetery. S. D. 1.

WILLIAMSBURG BOY
PERFECTED COAL CAR
CYRUS HAWKINS DESIGNS BIGGEST
CAR In THE WORLD

When the reports went broadcast
over the country that the Norfolk &
Western Railway Co. had put out
the biggest coal car in the world.
very few people knew that II was
Williamsburg boy whose genius de-
veloped this mammoth coal-carrying
car which may revolutionize the coal
carrying traffic Of the country. The
inventor and designer Of the car was
Cyrus Hankins, the only son of DR..
and Mrs. G. A. Hankins, of this city.
This great car was evolved by Mr..
Hankins a little more than year ago
while he was employed in the shops
of the Norfolk & Western at
Roanoke. When the railway people
found he had an idea along this line,
they put him to work on It and the
result was the 1O0-ton car, feature
of which is its six trucks, like the
big Pullman cars. Some idea of th'
size of the monster may be under
stood when it is recalled that tn
regular coal car of today carries onll
fifty tons.
The Norfolk & Western i'm
mediately had the idea patented
which prevents the designer and in
ventor from sharing in the fruits c
his genius. Mr.. Hankins is abor
% years of age now and is a gradt
ate of the V. P. 1 at Backsburl
He was also a student at Williai
and Mary for several years, but s.
his mechanical training at the Black
burg institution. He was on
twenty years old when he made b
big invention.
Young Hankins is now a mechar
cal engineer in the Symington pla
at Rochester. N Y, a big concer
where he will no doubt have an e
portunity to further develop
genius.
