The words are those of the best
authority in all America!
If it were mere scientist who as
serted that all men should live to be
100 years old, we would smile, why
doesn't he do it himself?"
If a man who had done it should
tell us this, we would discredit him,
because centenarians are too often
of the mentality which attributes
long life to a favorite brand of cut
plug, and doesn't know much about
science.
But the words above quoted are

famous man of science and-AL-
MOST--a centenarian! DR.. Smith is
90 and New York has officially de-
manded of him that he live to be

it has just reappointed him vice presi-
dent of the state board of charities

Somebody Always on Hand to
Tell Something Good if
Not Original.
FARMERS GET 1T AFTERWARD
Address Made in Richmond
Heard in the Country.
A Good Plan.

When interest flags In n farmers club
II Is generally possible to arouse II IL
some well-qualified member will give
condensed report OF some practical
farmers address which has already
proven attractive at some larger gath
ering OF farmers. This method has been
adopted at the meetings OF the Glover
Hill Club, In Chesterfield County,
where. under the head OF the good Of
the order" some member reads an adj
dress that has proved helpful In a
larger field.
Last week this lot fell to G. E. wray
who had been asked to speak on soil
fertility. Instead OF giving his own
opinions, which may or may not have
been Of any weight he gave an address
delivered at Richmond by DR. Cyril G.
Hopkins. and explained that this scien-
tifc farmer practiced what he preached
for he had bought what Is called a
run down, poverty-stricken, abandoned
farm, and by following system OF
soil upbuilding. had brought it up 10
such degree OF productivity that II
now pays handsome dividend on a
valuation of $500 an acre, while 1t cost
much less than $50 an acre only a
few years ago. Dr. Hopkins Is deep
ly interested In the so-called worn
out lands Of Virginia and maintains
that, these lands can, with comparative
ease, lie made worth $500 an acre, pos
sibly more. =.
He said that the main problem of
permanent fertility is simple. 1t con-
sists In making sure that every essen
tial element of plant food Is continu-
ously provided TO meet the needs of
maximum crops: any element unpro-
vided by nature must be provided by
man. The whole subject has been COM
pllcated by erroneous theories held by
farmers and, by so-called scientists in
official positions as to the value OF
crop rotation: also by the ruinous poll
cy OF some fertilizer interests In per-
suading farmers to use high priced
complete" fertilizers which add to the
soil hut n fraction Of what the plant
needs, with the result that the lana
becomes Impoverished. The rational
plan is to use abundance OF essentials
at n reasonable cost. The essentials
contained I'm the soil aud air can READILY
be drawn upon. while those which
must be purchased are applied literally
and made available by economic ma
tural methods.
Things Worth Knowing.
Four great Fundamental facts upon
which the science OF plant growth and
permanent fertility must he based were
all discovered. before the establishment
