WEEKLY LETTER OF JOHN H. PAGE, COMMISSIONER MINES,
 MANUFACTURES, AGRICULTURE

The fertilizer law guarantees to the farmer the percentages of plant food represented on the tag and is the only proper method of determining the va.ae of the fertilizer. If you decide that you want 60 use commercial fer tilizer, be sure that you consider well the guaranteed analysis. We haveiInspectors on the road whose duty it is to take samples of the various shipments of fertilizer made into all parts of the State. The law dir acts the Inspector in the performance of his duty and is very clear on the matter of taking samples.
 This feature of the law as well as the laws making appropriat- ions for enforcement. limit the Department to making analyses of only those samples taken by Inspectors and taken in an off cial manner. We have appro- priations to, pay for the analysis of the samples taken by the In apectorS if they are taken pro- perly.
 By this means we. have been enabled to insure the consumer that he is getting the amount of plant food guaranteed in the guaranteed analysis. The com panies are required under the law to send aotice of each ship ment to the Department, and the Inspectors are. immediately in formed as 10 where the shipment was directed s> that we may keep up with very sale of fer tilizer made in the state.
 When the Inspector sends IT his samples we have an analysis made in the manner prescribe q by the law and compare 1t with the analysis as guaranteed by the company who sold the goods.

HEADQUARTERS WILL
 REMAIN AT FORDYCE
Home Life and Accident Company Will Not Re-
 move office

At meeting of the Board of Directors of the Home Life and Accident Insurance Company at its rooms in the Southern Trust building yesterday, the question of removing the headquarters oi the company to Little Rock from Fordyce was discussed. and it was decided that the headquarters remain at Fordyce.
 It was decided, however that the loan department of the com pany, which was created by the board should be maintained in Little Rock with K. E. Pugh Tn charge. A resolution was adopt ed requiring that all loans made by the company should be ap- proved by the Executive com nittee. The Executive Con- nittee was also given authority 70 designate the Repositories where the funds of the company shall be placed.
 The bylaws of the company were amended so as to provide for quarterly meetings of the Board of Directors, one of which Is to be held at Fordyce, the ot hers in Little Rock. It was also provided that a monthly meeting of the Executive Committee shall be held in Little Rock.
 The Board of Directors elected the following officers: A. B. Banks of Fordyce, president; w. s. Mitchell and K. E. Pugh of Little Rock, vice presidents; John R. Hampton of Fordyce. Secre' tary-treasurer; T. c. McRae oi Prescott, general cousel, ! and Gustave Jones of Newport, as ssistant general counsel. Members of the Executive com mittee elected were: A. B, Banks chairman, John R. Hampton, secretary?R. E. Pugh, pr. James of Cotton Plant and A. L. Ayde- lotte of Ciscoe.
 A. E. Banks & Go. of Fordyce were elected as managers of the company.

We also keep a complete record Of all analyses so that we may know at any time how we'll the standard is kept up and for the putlic information.
 I am especially anxious that the farmers wh2 do use commercial fertilizer, inform themselves on what IS meant by the analysis and grade. The analysis shows he percentage of plant food con ,ained in the fertilizer, and since t is the plant food you are buy ing. you should know that the ereater the percentage of plant food 3the better the fertilizer. The higher the grade of fertil- izar, the better the fertilizer, generally speaking. A high grade fertilizer should have at east l0 per cent Phosporic Acid, , per cent Nitrogen, and 3 per cent Potash. A standard grade should have at least 9 per cent Phosphoric Acid, 1:65 per cent Nitrogen. 2 per cent Potash Anything below 9-1.63-2 IS Low Grade. These percentages represent the standard, but if he percentages are equal in commercial value to what the law says each grade shall be, the grade does not change. For ex- ample. Phosphoric Acid and Pot ash are equal in value, and one per cent could be taken off the percentages of PhOsphoric Acid and added to the Potash and 1t would not change the grade, be- aause they are of equal commer- cial value. Nitrogen is worth four times as much as Potash and Phosphoric Acid and runs up the grade of the fertilizer faster.
 Write for the bulletin on Fer tilizers and use it in studying the problems that confront the man who uses commercial fertilizer A knowledge of these matters is very necessary in knowing what the Fertilizer Law is doing for you, and how to buy your fertil- izer. 1 will also gladly send you a copy of the law upon request.

Board Of Health TO Seek co.opsration
in Cleaning Yards.
Waterloo, April 27.-In the city for
a few hours on private business, DR.. G..
H. ,Sumner secretary of the state
board of health, announced that in q
few days he would issue q public
proclame ton to the boys and girls of
the state calling upon them to take up
the task in all cities and villages OF
cleaning the back yards and alleys.
There have been cleanup days OBJ
served in several cities OF the state al
ready" said DR.. Sumner, "but most
Of the attention has been devoted to
front yards. What we want is for
the young folks to get Interested and
make thorough job Of cleaning the
places that have been sadly neg
lected.'
Asked regarding general health con-
ditions in Iowa, DR.. Sumner stated
that there were quite a few cases OF
smallpox, but no more than there are
in other states. Referring to local
conditions, Mr.. Sumner said he saw
menace to health at Chautauqua park,
where the wells were liable to be poll
luted from the vaults.
He again took occasion to deplore
the emptying Of sewers into the
rivers Of the state and said that now
a concerted effort is being made to
remedy this eva by getting the ma
tional government to appropriate
$4,000, the state to set aside a like
amount, and with this fund make a
sanitary survey Of the state. Then ar
rangements could be made for chemi-
cally treating this sewage before it
enters the river so that it would not
be transmitter Of sickness and death.
