THREE PHOSPHATE INGREDIENTS.
Can Be Obtained in United States 1t Is
Determined.

Present agricultural practice pre-
scribes the use Of three chemical ele'
ments as "soil amendment" as "stim.
ulant for plant growth" or a plant
food" as ii is yariously put. These
three elements when applied to the sol
in which a crop is growing have beer
found by practice to afford an increased
crop yield. They are phosphorus, po-
tassium, and nitrogen, spoken of by
the respective trade terms of phosphoric
acide, potash, and ammoniates."
In the commercial fertilizers phosphor-
ic acid is found in the form of. calcium
phosphate, which is home phosphate or
rock phosphate, usually treated with
supuhric acid to render it soluble. Pot
ash is found az salt or salts of po-
tassium, either sulphate or chloride, and
the Anomalies as the inorganic salt
of ammonia ammonium sulphate. the NOR
ganie salts of nitric acid, sodium nj
trate, and inorganic compounds of nitro
gen, calcium cyanamid, or the organic
compounds of nitrogen, contained in an
imal or vegetable refuse matter, cotton
seed meal, abattoir tankage, or fish
scrap.
The usual commercial fertilizers con-
tain these three elements and have the
designation Of complete fertilizers"
These are sold under various brand
names. the various brands frequently be-
ing recommended for particular crops.
The proportion of the three essential
ingredients is varied; as a usual thing

EXPLAINS BIG MORTGAGE PLAN.
New Haven Road Wants to Issue Long
Time Bonds.

! Boston. Jan. DIT would be very
helpful to the New England situation il
action could be taken and laws passed
I this winter that would permit the New
York. New Haven q Hartford Railroad
Co. to fund its present floating debt of
about S53.0O0000 with long.t time mort
gage bonds" President Howard Elliott
said in statement yesterday. This
statement, he said. was prompted by
published reports that the New Haven
WAS planning a mortgage OF 100000
O0O
"A mortgage, if issued, viii probably
not name any total sum, but bonds will
be issued from time TO time for the pur.
poses approved by the proper public au-
thorities, and any mortgage will contain
the necessary provisions protecting the
right OF existing securities according
TO President Elliott. The proposed mort
gage bonds. he thought, could be taken
by stockholders and investors al a low
er rate of interest than is paid on the
present short time notes.
Explaining the proposition further, Mr..
Elliott said
"The legislature Of Massachusetts, for
1914 directed the public service commits
sion 10 make an investigation Of the re-
lstion of railroad companies to the stat
ute laws Of this and other states
"To aid the commission in their work
the New Haven company within the past
six months has done much work in Civ
ing information TO the commission about
the conflicting laws Of the New England
states and about New Haven finances.
There have been several conferences
with the commission and two meetings
at which commissioners Of states other
than Massachusetts were present
At ,aese meetings various plans We're
suggested for financing the floating debt
Of the New Haven company, and Of OBJ
tanning money for improvements Among
the plans was that Of q mortgage Moth
inc definite has been done about Il. and
nothing can b. done until the legisla-
lures OF the various states take action"

uct in the distillation of coal for the
production of gas or coke, or both. This
source is but partially developed, as
by the methods most commonly prac-
tieed in this country this possible by
product is not recovered. The amount
of ammonia now going to waste is all
most enough to supply all of the "am-
moniates" now demanded by the fertil-
izer trade. The abbattoirs supply a
large amount of tankage and dried
blood OF high fertilizers value; but of
these possible by-products there is still
an enormous loss through the lack of
organization and cooperation in the
small slaughter of animals for food.

LIE Need Not Be Monotonous.

1t is sometimes said that to the
young the future all looks glowing
and glorious, while as age creeps on
the expectation of anything more than
a repeated monotony dies gradually
away. 1t certainly would not be thus
were life's experience read Alright,
each year brings to each life some new
Joy or sorrow, some fresh idea OF ex-
perience. II these are incorporated
into our lives SO that we discover
their meaning and learn their lessons,
each year will find our characters firm
er and stronger, our thoughts clearer
and deeper, our hearts fuller and rich
er, and our expectations purer in
deed. but also larger and more trust
worthy. Only those with shallow
minds or deadened energies or selfish
hearts talk of the monotony of life.

Two CLASSES OF THINKERS


Professor James Of Harvard was
wont to divide philosophers into two
classes, the Undetermined and the
tough-minded. At times he varied
the phraseology by referring to them
al the thick and the thin; at other
times as the tenderfooted and the
Rocky mountain tough.
The tender-minded are, according
to Professor james, the philosophers
of a speculative turn, the rationale
lists, "going by principles the
tough-minded are the empiricists,
"going by facts" Further, the ten
der-minded are intellectualistic,
idealistic, optimistic and dogmat-
ical the tough-minded are material
istic, pessimistic and skeptical.
II we are to believe James, there
is little love lost between these two
classes Of thinkers. "The tough
think Of the tenders as sentimental
lists and softheads. The tender feel
the tough to be unrefned, callous or
brutal"
The tender-minded spin their fine
cobwebs of theory, but the tough
minded look abroad con the colossal
universe of concrete facts, the awful
bewilderments, the surprises and
cruelties and the wildness things
show" and at least face all that, II
they can't explain it.

California experiment station made
silage out OF their first cutting Of
alfalfa last summer. The field was
foul with weeds. there being much
foxtail which was nearly ripe, with
boards already hard. II was decided
that the cutting was practically value
less for hay. and therefore the crop
was put into the silo.
The steers were fed on rolled bar
ley. alfalfa hay. and the alfalfa sill
lage. In two months they made q
satisfactory gain, and we're sold at
q profit OF about IS per head.
The silage as fed out was about
half foxtaiI. but It was always eaten
up clean. The experiment shows that
silags may be made from weedy al
falfa which would make but inferior
hay. that such siIage will be eaten
without waste. and that 1t can be used
az supplementary food for fatten-
ing on alfalfa hay and barley.
It Is suggested that where the nrst
cutting Of alfalfa containing foxtail is
to be used for silage. the work should
be done before the foxtail boards be-
come hard.

LEARNING TO BE INCREASED
Or Shall the World More Widely DIFF
fuse the knowledge Already
Gained7

Two purposes were prescribed Tor
the Smithsonian institution by its
founder-"the increase and diffusion
of knowledge" Which of these aims
is the more important?
Shall we stop finding out new
things until every living man knows
about the old things-or shall we de-
vote ourselves to investigating the
universe and not bother ourselves
about whether anyone knows or
cares? Doubtless either of these
extremes would be foolish but which
way shall we tend?
This question is suggested by a
series of communications addressed
to the editor of Science. In one of
these the charge is made that the
western universities, as distinguished
from the eastern, neglect scientific
research, and even discourage it,
while university extension work is
encouraged and rewarded. In other
words, the diffusion of knowledge is
favored rather than its increase.
The reason, we are told, is that the
more popular work means popular
approval, followed by Legislative APP
propriations.-Literary Digest.
