USE FERTILIZERS TO REDUCE
THE COST OF. PRODUCTION

Many OF our readers still seem to
misunderstood our position regarding
the use Of commercial fertilizers In
1915. Our position this year is not
different from what It has been every
year. Fertilizers should not be used
unless the increase In the crop will
pay profit, with good safe margin,
above the cost of the fertilizers. on
the other hand, on soils and with
crops that have in our past experience
paid a profit on the use Of fertilizers
they should be used this year, and the
necessity for the largest yields per
acre consistent with the most econom.
ical production Is as urgent and more
so this year than in any recent year.
We are dealing with the same soils
and largely with the same crops, re.
qulring the same treatment. and no
false idea of economy should lead us
to restrict the use of fertilizers when
this will lessen our profits. The idea
of reducing the fertilizers in order TO
reduce the total crop OF cotton, so Il
will bring better price, would be
too ridiculous TO even mention were
II not tragic In its possible effects In
lessening the earnings Of each indl-
vidual by lessening the yield per acre
and increasing the cost Of producing
pound Of cotton.
BY all means reduce the cotton
crop, but do II by reducing the acre
age instead Of reducing the yield per
acre. which is now so small as to
make the production Of cotton I'm.
profitable at any price which has been
obtained in the last quarter century.
OF course, when cotton is selling at
eight cents a pound there must be q
larger increase in the yield from the
use Of the fertilizer to pay the same
profit on a given cost for fertilizers.
Or TO reverse this matter, less fer.
tilizers can be paid for with'a given
amount Of cotton for the price OF
cotton has decreased while the price
Of fertilizers probably has not de-
creased so much.
But the problem is the same in
principle as Il always has been. II
s. worth Of fertilizers will produce
81 to IS worth Of increase in crop
the Investment should be made. The
only question is as to the kind and
amount to use to obtain the best
profits, and this is largely an indi
vidual problem for each farmer "a
solve; but this Is not different than
It always has been.-Progressiye

No Lack Of Available Baseball candi-

Coach Con Lucid Is very happy over
the prospects for the A. & NJ. baseball
squad this season. He is showed UNI
der with excellent material and Is ex-
perlencing a hard time in cutting his
squad down to the required number.
There is certainly no lack OF material
at A. & VI. for the making OF State
championship baseball team this year.
There is no position for which there
are not at least a dozen good men
from which TO select The men are
working hard and seem TO take lot
Of interest in the practice. Each man
is fighting for all he Is worth to stay
on the squad. and II is really very
hard TO say at this time Just who will
constitute the Farmer nine this sea

Track prospects are equally as good
this year at A. & NJ There are a
number OF last years men out, includ-
ing McFadden. Braumlller Collins,

NEW YORK DAY BY DAY.
BY CHARLES HENRY ADAMS.

New York, Feb. 23.-Wanted-The
old.fashioned American home.
That's the advertisement Uncle
Sam is putting out, according to one
of the old gentleman's best friends
Irving Bachelor. We all know Mr..
Bachelor as the author of Keeping
Up With Lizzie" "Eben Holden" and
other homespun tales and satires.
They are not merely made in
America they are made in New Eng
land; and each and every one is sea-
soned with evergreen. sweet fern and
juniper, Also each in its own way is
plea for what the author honestly
believes will be the salvation Of mod
ern America revival of the prin-
ciples and practices that made the
past Of America great.
Even II one is thoroughly convinced
OF the logic and justice OF several OF
the new "lsms.' one may get rather
tired OF hearing and talking about
them. At such a moment turn-back'
the-clock chat with Mr.. Bachelor ap-
peals to the mental palate, even as a
plain home dinner delights, after a
surfeit of French restaurants. So
was glad to find him, at the Hotel
Collingwood, and to receive the mes
sage which he believes New York
needs even more than the rest OF the
United States OF America.
"As I've travelled about the country
have noticed one condition every
where, and suppose it's even truer
of New York than of most other
places" he said.
American men and women OF to-
day seem to know a lot about whist
parties, dinner parties. tea parties
lunch parties, tango parties. They
don't seem to know much about their
homes. They don't seem to be ac
quainted with their children. And
yet, of all of our citizens who have
left the world in their debt, can't
find one who wasn't a homemade
mother.made man.
Think of the old-time American
home. It's rought wooden walls were
first put together by the future hus
band and father, with the friendly
assistance of the neighbors. Kindness
had gone into its beams and rafters
Into the rag carpets and homemade
curtains we're stitched love and con

An advance of from % to so per

CLEANING CURTAINS

Before wetting the curtains for
washing, take their exact size so as
TO not stretch them too much later
Shake them, to remove all the dirt
possible. Soak curtains over night
In suds of CASTLE soap and tepid wa
ter, and place near the fire so that
the warmth will aid In the cleansing
process. 1t Is even better to soak
the curtains during the day, so that
the water in which they are soaking
can be changed often.
After soaking do not rub the cur
tains, but knead and squeeze them,
later boiling them for few minutes.
Rinse and blue If they are white cur
tains. For those OF cream color
rinse in water colored in tea; IL a
deeper ecrue rinse in coffee water,
and If very deep, like the Egyptian
shade, dip in saffron and water. The
curtains should next be run through
u wringer and dipped in boiled
starch OF medium consistency. AID,
just the curtain stretcher to the size
of the curtain measurement taken
before washing and pin the curtain
edges to It.

Use GOOD SOAP

II is important to use the best pure
cured soap for boys clothes as the

the clothes bad color and tending
TO irritate the child's tender skin.
The soap must be grated on a penny
CRATER or thinly shredded and dissolv-
ed In boiling water.
Prepare the washing and rinsing
waters before commencing the wash
ing operations, So that the work can
be carried through speedily. Pour
dissolved soap into the washing wa
tiers, and add one tablespoonful Of
ammonia to every gallon Of water,
excepting for colored woolens.
Knead and squeeze the WOODEN ar
ticle in the water, being careful to
avoid rubbing it, or 1t will harden and
thicken. When clean, rinse in plen-
ty Of water, with ammonia added,
and finally dip in very pale blue

Some Sayings Of

What has become OF the old fash
Toned schoolboy who used to hold up
his hand and snap his fingers when
he wanted to attract the teachers
attention?
The man who marries once IL ell
titled to some sympathy, but when
he makes the same mistake two or
three times he deserves all he gets.
When they are counting he always
lies about his in .ome and she always
lies about her relatives.

gest fool name of the lot.
Why is 1t that there is always one
cartridge left in the empty gun that
the cheerful idiot playfully points at
the inocent bystander when the fool
killer isn't around?
The main reason why there arc so
many divorces is because there are
too many married women and too
few wives.
The fashion sheets predict a rev.

is necessary every now and then.
When a man tells you that his wife
believes everything he tells her you

DESOlATION

Listen! How the ages ring
With the march of human thing.
Listen! How in awful din,
Mighty shots are hurled within,
How with laundering might is rent
Peaceful land in havoc bent!
Everything is leveled low,
In the battles fiery glow.
When the fearful havoc's played
Onward still the host Is swayed,
Leaving now and then a face
Glaring from its battered place.
Shrinking, tortured now they must
Seek from out the battles dust.
All that's left is for decay
Nothing there that serves today.
Now an old man, then a maid,
Heart sore seeks the few betrayed,
Kneels with them to plead with God
Round the priest, where ruin trod,
Kneeling with his hands fast chung
Round the Holy Mother flung
That sweet spirit in him grew
Forgive, they know not what they
do"
,l
On. still on. the shot is hurled!
Desolation is unfurled.
Will the mighty spoil Of earth
Soothe the wanton days Of dearth?
viii reign Of peace,
Time must release,
Heal the wound
OF battle sound?
