MORE POTASH COMING.

American crops and soils are still
as hungry for Potash as before the
outbreak of the European War,
which curtailed the Potash ship
mentS.
Some of the Fertilizer Companies
are trying to induce farmers to BUY
the one-sided low Potash or no Pot-
ash fertilizers of generation ago.
This means a fertilizer that is proht-
able to the manufacturer, but not the
best for the farmer. When the Syn
dicate in 1910 started the direct sales
of Potash to dealers and farmers at
reasonable prices. Potash sales In
creased 65 per cent. in one year,
clear proof that farmers know that
Potash Pays. They know that Pot
ash gives good yields, good quality
and resistance to plant diseases.
Many of the Fertilizer Manufactur-
ers are willing to meet the farmers
wishes and sell him what he thinks
he needs. These manufacturers are
now willing to furnish as much fot-
ash as they can secure. They oner
goods with 5 per cent. and even IN
some cases 10 per cent. Potash, II
the farmers insist on it.
Shipping conditions are IMPROVING
more Potash is coming forward al
though the costs of production and
TRANSPORTATION are higher. The high
er price of fertilizers is not due
wholly to the slightly higher cost of
Potash. Much of the Potash that
will be used in next springs fertl-
lizer had reached America before the
war started.
There is no substitute for Potash.
We can no more return to the Ter
tilizer of twenty years ago than we
can return to the inefficient farm i'm
plements or Improbable livestock OF
that period. H. A. HUTSoN.

EULOGY on THE DOG.
Famous Tribute of Senator Vest to
Faithful Animal. 49,.

Gentlemen of the jury: The best
friend a man has in the world may
turn against him and become his enc
my. His son or daughter that he has
reared with loving care may prove un-
grateful. Those who are nearest and
dearest to us, those whom we trust
with our happiness and our good
name, may become traitors to their
faith. The money that a man has he
may lose. 1t flies away from him,
perhaps when he needs it most.
mans reputation may be sacrificed in
a moment of i'll considered action.
The people who are prone to fall on
their knees to do us honor when sue
cess is with US may be the first to
throw the stone of malice when fail
ure settles in cloud upon our heads.
The one absolutely unselfish friend
that man can have in this selfish
world the one that never deserts him,
the one that never proves ungratefu!
or treacherous, is his dog. Gentlemen
of the jury, a mans dog stands by
him in prosperity and in poverty, in
health and in sickness. He will sleep
on the cold ground where the wintry
winds blow and the snow drives firce-
" if only he may be near his mas
ter's side. He will kiss the hand
that has no food to offer, he will lick
the wounds and sores that come in
encounter with the roughness of the
world. He guards the sleep of his
pauper master as if he were a prince.
When all other friends desert he re-
mains. When riches take wings and
reputation falls to pieces he is as
constant in his love as the sun IN its
Journey through the heavens. If for
tune drives the master forth an out
cast in the world, friendless and
homeless, the faithful dog asks no
higher privilege than that of accom-
panying him to guard against danger,
to fight against his eneIle7; and
when the last scene of all comes and
death takes the master in his en-
brace and his body is laid away in
the cold ground. no matter if all
other friends pursue their way there
bv his graveside will the noble dog
be found, his head between his paws,
! his ewes sad but open in alert watch
fulness, faithful and true even to
death

A Plow That Rang True.

In Buenos Aires few years ago an
American salesman of plows wished
to demonstrate to local customer
the superiority of his goods over that
OF a German competitor, relates the
worlds work. The American consul
arranged for the test.
The German plows proved to be al
most exact duplicates of the American
implement in design and rather bet
ter in finish. Wasting no time in eX-
PLANTATION, the American salesman
called over a powerful peon and or
dered him to swing with all his
strength with a 10-pound sledge upon
the share of one of the American
plows
The husky Basque sDat upon his
hands, hunched his muscular shoul-
ders, swung the heavy hammer in a
wide circle and brought it down on
the spot indicated. A note as clear
as that Of a bell rang out and the
plow went bounding across the floor,
but save for the patch of red paint
that fused to and came off on the
hammer head, the share was unmark-
ed. When the operation was repeat
ed upon one of the German imple-
ments, the first share was complete
ly shattered, the pieces being scatter
ed about the floor like so much brok-
en- crockery.
Thinking that possibly the faulti-
ness of his share had been an accident
of construction, perhaps of over-tem-
pering, the dealer requested the peon
to swing upon the second sample.
This blow demonstrated that the
German implements were not even
consistent in their effectiveness, for
this share doubled up under the
blow and folded lovingly in around
the hammer. like a flower going to
sleep at night.
There were tears in the cOnsuls
eyes as he wrung the salesman s
hand in congratulation. but all he
said was, And they still accuse us
of exporting wooden nutmegs."

SCIENTIFIC ENTERPRISE
Shackleton Expedition to Antarctic
Scientifically Equipped

Air-propeiled motor sledges mount
ed on fiat runners like skis from
the main reliance of the Antarctic
expedition headed by Sir Ernest
Shackleton, which is preparing to-
spend the next few months in eX-
ploring the great continent that sur
rounds the South Pole. An illus
trated article in the September Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine declares that
in this and many other respects the
expedition is better equipped with
modern devices than any previous
body of polar explorers has ever
been. Details of food supply, shell
ter, and provisions for the general
health and comfort of the members
OF the party have been worked out
with scientific care, tested in the
snow fields of northern Norway and
pronounced perfect.
Five motor sledges will be taken.
One of the has a 55-horse power
gasoline engine, another 40-horse
power. These two have air propel-
lers, but for use against head winds
they are also equipped with positive
drive mechanism in the form OF
toothed drums attached at the rear
to ingage the ice and snow. In the
extremely low temperatures of the
Antarctic the snow becomes as loose
as dry sand, so these sledges are
mounted on fiat, ski-like runners to
prevent them from stalling. In a
seven-day test in Norway one or
these air-propelled sledges, carrying
six men, towed another siedge weigh
ing 400 pounds and carrying two
men. at a speed OF from Is to 20
miles an hour Only 30-horse
power motor was used, instead OF
the large ones that have since been
installed, with which the speed Of
% miles an hour up a 10 per cent
grade with three men on board has
been made.
Two other sledges have the posi-
tive drive only, and are expected to
cover about so miles a day each.
as against the IS 10 100 miles of
the aero-sleages. The engines of
these are water-cooled, and the water
jackets are piped to steam-cooklng
appliances, so that food may be
heated while on the march.
The food problem Of the Shackle-
ton expedition is a particularly diff
cult one. Food supplies for the en-
tire journey of 900 miles from We'd
dell Sea to the Pole and 500 miles
| from the Pole to Ross Sea, must be
taken along, whereas most polar ex-
plorers are able to make catches OF
food for use on the return journey.
So a scientifically devised ration, on
which the members of the party have
already subsisted for days at time,
has been prepared and enough of 1t
packed in sausage skins, for easier
transportation, to last through the
1,7OO-mile trip. Each man will re-
ceive SO ounces of food daily, instead
of the 3 pounds which is the average
consumption In this will be 3
ounces of lard, ounces Of sugar,
and 2 ounces of mixture Of dried
milk, protein, and oats. The rest
of the ration consists of Brazil nuts,
almonds, and beech nuts mixed with
oil and dried milk.
