STATE GRANGE PLANS FOR
A PERMANENT HOME
Maryland Farmers Organization viii
Erect Building As Memorial
To Founder.

The Maryland State Grange is pre-
pairing to erect a $4,000 State Home
adjoining the property of the Agricul-
tural College at College Park as a
memorial to o. H. Kelley. founder OF
the National Order. This will provide
a hall in which the State Grange may
hold it's regular and special meetings
and will house the property and rec
ords of the organization. Visiting
grangers will also be entertained In
rooms set apart for their use.
This building will be used as meet
ing place for the members of a Grange
largely made up of students at the
Agricultural College and will provide
them with training school In the
forming of farmers organizations
while they are being educated in bet.
ter methods of farming and home
making About thirty students from
Grange districts will find lodgings in
this home, the scholarships for these
lodgings being at the disposal OF such
of the county oranges as contribute
$500 to the erection Of the building.
No greater opportunity has ever
been offered the organized farmers OF
any State in bringing them in closer
touch with the interests and manage
ment of their Agricultural College and
in making 1t do the work required OF
them. 1t is hoped that by this means
the principles of Grange organization
which have been found helpful in many
neighborhoods may be extended to all
sections of the State.

machine than he does. Then it's about
time for you to change makes.
Run your incubator in room where
the temperature is as even as possible.
for while regulator can take care OF
a considerable change in room tenn
perature, it has its limits. An ordinary
room in house Is rather changeable,
but success can be had If careful at
tention is paid to its operation. The
room will be colder in the day than
at night time and hence a slightly
larger fame will be required to keep
up the temperature. A clean cellar is
an ideal place.
When you move your wooden hen
babies" to their brooder, watch them
closely. They will want to keep warm
and will crowd against each other In
a corner until some are smothered.
Prevent them, by all means. from
taking this way of keeping warm. for
once they start doing it they never
seem to learn better. When you put
the chicks in the brooder. keep close
watch on them for a couple Of hours
and teach them the proper place, to go
when they are cold. They will soon
get the habit of using the hover and
will give you little trouble afterward-

the methods that have been employed

been of advantage, the real needs OF
the agricultural and trucking communl-
ties have not been reached IN a vital
way, and these needs may be met only
by the building of lateral roads OF
much less expensive character, SO that
great number may reap the beneht OF
the State bounty and be compensated
for increased taxation. Our views upon
this road question are founded upon a
strong sentiment amounting to a posi-
tive demand from the people of South
ern MARYLAND as voiced by the most
representative citizenship urging less
cost per mile for State roads III that
section.
LAS the agricultural colleges in many
of the other States have been most
helpful agencies in solving the prob

there is every reason to believe that
our own Maryland Agricultural Col

could materially add to its usefulness
in stimulating interest in rural lite and
making our farms more attractive and
profitable, and thereby prevent the de.

FEEDING POTATOES
FOR AN EARLY CROP
Potatoes Properly Fertiiized Mature
Earlier and Are More Profitable.

T. H. WHITE.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.
Potatoes should follow some heavily
MANFRED crop, so that fresh manure
need not be used since 1t will be likely
to cause potato scab. Land in heavy
sod should not be used for potatoes
unless plowed the fall before and well
rotted. If the land has been properly
taken care Of as above, the application
of commercial fertilizer Is all that is
needed to get an early crop, weather
conditions being favorable.
A fertilizer with to per cent of
phosphoric acid, to per cent
nitrogen, and 4 to per cent. potash
gives good results. A good mixture
for early potatoes is as follows:
Dissolved Phosphate Rock, 1000 lbs.
Dried Blood, 500 lbs.
Nitrate of Soda, 200 lbs.
Sulphate of Potash, 200 lbs.
This mixture should be applied
broadcast at the rate of 1900 pounds
per acre, and be we'll mixed into the
soil with a harrow or cultivator.
If you wish to hasten the growth of
the young plants, one hundred pounds
each of nitrate of soda and dissolved
rock per acre should be scattered in
the row when the potato is planted.
The above mixture provides for plenty
of available phosphoric acid which is
| needed to make the plant get its
growth in short time. Early maturity
is important, not only on account Of
| being able to get the crop to market
as soon as possible but also because
some of the early varieties will not
stand the moisture and heat Of tho
| early summer.
