FURNISH VALUABLE FERTILIZERS.

In helping the manufacturers of soil
tertllizers to increase their OUTPUT the
United States Department of ApricnI-
ture believes that the interests of the
farmer are enhanced. The use of fort
liners to supply nitrogen to the soil is
OF continually increasing Importance IN
our agricultural population. Fish refuse
mas proved an important source of ar
galc nitrogen for fertilizing purposes
and the necessity of preparing It in com.
merlcal form has led to the DEVELOPMENT
OF the fishscrap industry in our Atlantic
The department has, therefore. been
conducting investigation results of which
have Just been published in a pannblet
entitled The Fish Scrap Fertilizing
Industry Of the Atlantic Coast y WITH |
view to assisting the development of |
this industry.
Ihere are at present about 40 factories
on the Atlantic coast whose main outnnt
IS iish scrap and fish oil manufactureS
from menhaden. These are found ali

business reached its high-water mari

since have never been so great. oWing
to the reduced price of oil and scran re
suItng from the competition of other
products. This is true notwithstanding
tne improvements that have been made
IN the methods Of industry. The annual
output IN oil and scrap has not varied
greatly from 10000 tons of scran and
80 OOO barrels Of oil during the past S6
years. There has been no growth n
the recent past which would warrent .
oellef IN a growth in the future. How
ever Lnere seems every probability Of
steady demand for this fertilizer.
Inc great success which fish seran

DISCUSS CURRENT EVENTS.

Current Events" was the subject
ION the boards at the University EX
tension Lecture, in Witherspoon Hall
in Philadelphia.
Miss Janet Richards. traveller and ex-
ponent of woman suffrage. in a purely
explanatory vein threaded the mazes Of
the currency bill, the income tax and
other WilsOnian measures with an as
surance and facility of expression which
pleased her audience.
Miss Richards thinks well of the
bankers bank, and believes that the
cooperation resulting therefrom will
eliminate panics The tax of one per
cent. on incomes is no injustice" she
said, but the present method of collect
ing It Is cumbersome and awkward. A
Washington banker told me the other
day that it cost $1,000 to collect $500.
and that the cost wouldn't have been
much greater for collecting 81, 900. 600.
President Wilson's action in refusing
to treat with the woman suffrage dele
gates because his party had taken no
stand on the question, was triumphantlv
shown to be inconsistent with his policy

MAY Be DEARTH OF PASTORS.

Present indications point to the fac
that when the Maryland Annual Confer
ence of the Methodist Protestant Church
convenes at Milford, President John S.
Bowers will be confronted with the
problem of filling the large number Of
appointments with fewer ministers than
were at his disposal at the last session.
While it is a known fact that the adj
vanced class Of the theological seminary
connected with the Western Maryland
College at Westminster, Md, the insti-
tuition from which young ministers Of
this denomination are supplied, is unusu-
ally large this year, there is some doubt
that the number of those who will be
ordained during the week Of April l will
be sufficient to supply the demand.
Besides the increased need for minis
ters on account Of the new charges that
will be added, it is learned that one or
two of the older ministers will ask for
the superannuated relation. and several
more have signitied their intention Of
asking to be left without work for a year /
or two on account of failing health. 1t /
is rumOred that Rev. J. L. Mills, one Of /
the Oldest members Of the Conference,
will ask to be placed on the superannu-
ated list. 1t has also been learned that
Unless their health greatly improves be-
tween now and the LIST Of April Rev
Dorsey Blake, who is in charge of the
pa Church, and Rev.
7. l.. Stevens, of the Crumpton. Md.
harge will both ask to be left without
work for a year at least
These vacancies. in addition to the
mes made by the loan of Rev. J. NJ.

estant Church at Seattle, Wash, at the

Dtion, and F. c. Klein, as secretary Of !
he Board of Foreign Missions. and Rev.
(. II. Vandyke to the same work, will y
e sure TO interfere somewhat with the d
resident in making the appointments. \
The question of union with the United
rethren Church is bound to come up at o
lis session of the Conference, and in d
ew of the fact that all the other CON a
.rences of both denominations have q
,ted on the question and large major II
y of them highly favoring it, much will
pend upon the action of the Maryland .
difference, which is the largest of them q
!. 1t can be safely said, however, in o.
with this matter, that the II

adverse to the union, and President 81
