NECESSITY FOR PLANT FOOD
Seed, Kind of Fertilizer Used and
Culture Employed?

The crops which you are growing
average to mature in 60 to 80 days.
The seasons are short. The plants
must have their food every hour they
are in the soil, and it must be avail
able or they will not grow.
If you think you can trust quick
growing crops on insoluble fertilizers,
that is for you to determine, but in
my judgment, taking the seasons as
they go, wet and dry, hot and cold,
you will find you will be, the loser,
says a writer in an exchange. You
have to take a great risk as to the
weather. That. is the largest factor
in raising crops.
Can you afford to take any risk in
the seed, the kind of fertilizer used,
or the culture employed, factors over
which you have control?

Governor has appointed men

friedman Patient
Dies in Pittsburgh
Special to The Telegraph

Pittsburgh, Jan. 10. - Mrs. Mary
Clara Held, wife of Mr.. Austin Held,
who went to Germany almost one year
ago to obtain cultures of the then ia
nous turtle serum of DR.. f. F. Fried
mann, the German scientist, died yes
terday. Mr.. Held brought enough of
the serum to Pittsburgh to treat forty
persons. The first trial was made upon
his wife.
Mrs. Held underwent the regular
course of treatment for four weeks,
and DIR. Held said there had been no
improvement in her condition.
When DR.. Held first learned of DR..
Friedmann's cure he sold his automo-
bile to obtain funds enough to defray
the expenses of travel, in the hope
that he could induce DR.. Friedman to
give to him some of the serum. 1t
was one year ago yesterday that he left
Pittsburgh for Germany. He returned
February 5, 1913.
Dr. Held was asked If the serum
had done his wife good, and he an
swered: "If it had she would not be
dead"
