pay the Farmers of the Piedmont Sec

what is on hand should be used for

Fertilizers are not amendments or I
stimulants to plant growth but fur-t
nish the necessary elements OF plant
food without which they will not
grow. Our staple crops take out large
amounts Of plant food from the Eois; /.
which must be replaced. The farmers
OF the State have not acted unwiselyf
In that they have been using fertili4s
GERS In large amounts for number.
Of years. hIweTcL., under the present
conditions with the low price OF Sc0t-S

the amount of fertilizer they will1risef

wash out of the land as does nifEp-

skilled farm labor is cheaper than In
the United States.
Another possible solution of the
problem would be an increase I'm NUT
ton consumption in the United States.
We consume annually per capita 2
l-2 pounds Of veal, which ts 4 per cent
OF our total meat consumption; the
people Of Great Britain eat pounds
OF veal per capita annually, which is
per cent OF their annual per capita
meat consumption. We consume 1-2
pounds OF mutton and lamb per capt.
to, which is about per cent of our
total, whereas the British people con-
sumo 26 pounds of mutton and lamb
per capita, which is % per cent of
their annual meat consumption.
An increase in our mutton con-
sumption at tho expense OF tho con-
sumption of veal would Of course.
tend to make calves less valuable as
veal and would encourage system of
breeding which would bring them in
to demand as stockers. An increase In
mutton consumption would also e.

this could be brought about on dairy

SECRETARY 89ADoQ
 DEFENDS SHIP BILL


 WASHINGTON Feb. 4-c Government aid In building up an Ameriean mer- chant marine and federal leglahtion permitting the maintenance Of resale prices were recommended in spoeiai reports submitted at todey'8 aeaalon of Che Chamber of Commerce or tne United States.
 These recommendations and ad- dresses by Secretary McAdoo and sen' ator Burton Of Ohio on Ono Develop. ment of the Merchant marine of Che United States and Commissioner of ] Corporations Davies on "lhe Federal Trade Commission ? were features on the program.
 In its report, the committee on mer- chant marine advocated Che creation of a federal shipping board to encour- age the establishment and successful operation Of merchant marine end marino development company cap talked at S80OOo00O to advance funds Co buyers or builders ol steam- CTS.
 Defendng che ship purchase bilb Secretary McAdoo predicted chat the government would not operate the ships at loss and said iailure to make Q profit should not deter the coy6rnment from entering the busi- ness. lie pointed out Chat the coast guard service saved much life and property and asked if the chamber were h favor Of disseminating the ser. vice because it cost money. He in. ouired f the Panama Canal were built for profit
 "Where property is put In jeopardy on sea or otherwise said Secretary McAdoo. "it IS @ function Of govern ment to furnish relief So when com. merce is in jeopardy. when freight rates are soaring to unreasonable heights. I must confess ] have no pa tience with the contention that the government must sit with monacled hands and shackled feet. This is a time when we must face the Issue. This is the time for remedies. for remedies are not worth a continental unless applied at the acute stage
 "The talk of international compli. cations. from the ship purchase bill Is twaddle." said McAdoo. "phere is no more danger from that than there Is of my picking up the Washington monument and walking across the Po- tomac. l know Of no protest of any foreign government against this meas ure This is matter Of policy for thls government alone to determine. /. Its execution is another matter. But as long as We observe the rules of Inc ternational law nobody can complain

The dcstruction la SO universal that t hardIy seems possi. ble that lt was the work of human agents
 Normally Poland is pleasantly rolling country not unlike the Amor ican Middle Vest 3eriile. agricul- turally developed, productive and pros porous, with its landscapes cheequered with wellgroomed farms and patches of wood. 1t Is now bleak and scared, almost every house is 10 ruins and tbe mutilated roads are full of haltstay, ed half-grozen people who have no homes and no possibility Of escaping from the charred remnants oi what onco were hnbitations The line of fugitive peasants ie like Q long black cord l;notted In places where they have assembled In groups to consider the best way to escape. But at one eud escape Is cut off by Che heavily massed Russian troops and Che other end of the line recoils from the advancing German army
 The picture is drawn by Prlnco Dom lnique Radziwiil, a member of Po- land'a oldest and noblest aristocracyr who has come to Petrograd from his home In Miosk to devise some practl- cal method of assisting his unfortu- nate countrymen
 eI am afriad said Prince Radizwill, the world has been DO busy giving its help to unfortunate Belgum that our country which is so far off from the western world, cannot expect 9 fuil measure of sympathy The trag. edy of Belgium came first and that. of course. makes it seem more i'm portant: the Polish tragedy is not yet finished. In this second German inc vaslon 1t has suffered more than in the first, and itue-vcry litue-is now left. It is now more swept by battle than any other part of the world The refugees, or rather those who would Ike 10 be refugees. have nowhere to so.

COST OF JUSTICE CUT
 IN FOURTH DIVISION

FAIRBANKS, Jan. 25s-Duing the first half of the fiscal year which start ed July l. 1914, and ended December Sl. 1914. the disbursements of the Marshal's office were less than half the amount expended during the same period in 1913. according to figures compiled during thre last few days. To January ], the disbursements of the marshars office amounted to 565,- 424.92. as against approximately S142.- 900 for the previous year.
 During the quarter which ended De cember S1, the marshal disbursed SSS.. 421.22 as against $94SSS.41 for the same period in 1918. This cut in the disbursements was due largely to the fact that there was no session Of court in Fairbanks during the latter part of 1914. and consequently no witnesses or jurors fees to pay
 While it canuot be stated definite ly what the disbursements will bo for the next six months, the morshafs office estimates that for the full fis- cal year, to end on June 30. the dis bursements will be between S2I0Oo and s3O.000 less than Q year ago (Fairbanks Times.l
