ABOUT FERTILIZERS
Kansas as a state does not n

Kansas as a state does not need to
use commercial fertilizers, and will
not require them for some time to
come II the proper tillage and rota-
tion system are employed, is the
opinion of r. l. Throckmorton, asso-
ciate professor of agronomy in the
Kansas State Agricultural college.
In Just one small section of the
state is the application of fertilizing
material advisable portion Of the

and shale or shale alone. In tests

supplies phosphorus, incEeased the

other part of the state have CONNER

It has been found to be good prac-

and rotation systems and for return

to be encouraged, rather than the

1.-THE principal plant foods s,


"The principal plant foods sup
piled in commercial fertilizers are
nitrogen, potassium, and phosphor-
u.s." commented Mr.. Throckmorton.
"In addition to these elements the
fertilizers contain a body which may
be made up Of dried manure, cinders,
Stag, ground rock, and various other
mixtures of like nature. These are
of course, necessary to some extent,
for they furnish means of evenly dis
tributing over large area a small
amount of the plant food, but they
are somewhat deceiving to the farm
err who has not closely investigated
the composition Of fertilizers in gen.
eral.
"By commercial fertilizers are
meant fertilizers which are sold for
their content of nitrogen, phosphor-
us, and potassium.
"Barnyard manure, straw, and all
kinds of organic matter may be ad-
ded to Kansas soils with profit. Es-
pecially is this important in sections
lacking in organic content Organic
matter not only furnishes food for
bacteria that makes available much
of the nitrogen of the soil but i'm

An Old Mans Stomach

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. II too
much is habitually taken, the stom-
ach will rebel. When man reaches
the advanced age of IS or 90, you
will find that he is light eater. Be
as careful as you will, however you
will occasionally eat more than you
should and will feel the need Of
Chamberlain Tablets to correct the
disorder. These tablets do not con-
tain pepsin, but strengthen the stom-
ach and enable 1t to perform its func-
tions naturally. They also cause a
gentle movement Of the bowels.

A Big Vote PoIIed.

The Republican state ticket in Kan
sas has polled on an average about
$4,000 votes, and the average plurali.
ties of the newly elected Republican
state officials will run from 10000 to
about 10000, according to practically
complete, although unofficial, reports,
Governor Capper, running for re-elec-
ton, with only a few scattered pre-
cincts missing over the state, has a
plurality Of 1874 in the los counties.
The official count and absent vote
will change these pluralities some
what, though not materially. Wood
row Wilson's plurality for president
in the state, with the same precincts
missing as in the gubernatorial con-
test is 1851, which the official count
and absent vote is expected to swell
to $4,000 or 5000.
The Republican candidates for state
office. on two of whom complete, al
though unofficial. returns have been
compiled ran several thousand votes
ahead of Charles Evans Hughes, the
Republican candidate for President.
With every county heard from, unof-
ficially, Hughes has polled total Of
274,003 votes, compared to 308,641 for
Wilson. The Capper total is 34S,23S.
compared to 194,524 for w. c. Lans-
don. the Democratic candidate for
governor. The official count is e1-
,pected to increase all these totals
slightly, as the absent vote is to BE-
counted and also the soldier vote.

ALCOHOL, SLOT AND SELL.

ALCOHOL, SHOT AND SHELL.
The Reformer. a paper of Western
Australia. writes of the effects OF in
toxicating drinks In the evolutionary
force OF that state as fellows:
A little time ego 10000 troops were
medically certified as sound in wind
and limb. Then alcohol began to put
in its fine work, aud in a short time
1000 Of them, either for behavior or
sickness, were dismissed. Their
places were soon filed, but neither
the citizens nor the soldiers had learn
ed their lesson, and SO whisky OF
beer was still regarded as the bond
of good-fellowship, and the test OF
Hospitality. Then came along pneu
monia. that dread daughter Of alco-
hclism.' 1t was pneumonia in the
camp, pneumonia at Albany, pneu-
monia on the sea, and pneumonia be
meath the shadow of the pyramids
Some tardily recovered, others were
laid beneath the turf or the wave be-
fore ever they saw the fash of Turk
ish sword or heard the burst of Ger
man bomb.
Alcoholism and pneumonia indeed
can scarcely be separated, and the
foremost physicians of England now
are saying that they look upon the
previous alcoholic condition Of a pa
tient as the arbiter of his life when
attacked by pneumonia. This first
blood in our war was drawn, not by
the bayonets of the enemy. but by
the folly of ourselves. The foolish
hospitality of the people and the
drinking dens of the state joined
hands in destroying Jul defenders.

HOW TO EDUCATE.

HOW TO EDUCATE.
In the temperance education cam
paien o being vigorously carried on
in all parts of tie country a special
lied system is advisable. DR.. Wells
Andrews, in Chicago Daily News,
puts this suggestion into words that
are we'll worth passing on.
Tell the lumber men of Michigan, he
says, how many thousands of drinking
farmers viii shingle their homes and
barns or build new ones as 500 as
they quit their meanness." Tell the
shoe manufactured Of Massachusetts
what it means to take ali the bare
feet of drunkards' children off the
ground. Tell the iron men OF Penn
Sylvania that new stoves Will be iced
ed in 100000 homes when the saloon
keeper ceases to get the money. and
tell the miners they viii have work
ali winter through getting coal enough
to put into those stoves. Tell the wool
growers of Ohio that everybody in this
country is going to be wrapped in
wooden and sleep under blankets when
the Billiards blow, and the men no
longer heat up with liquid fire in or
der to eXterminate their families with
atmospheric cold. Tell the cattle rails
ers - the West and stockyards men
in Chicago that thsre is going to be
beef on thousands of tables, where
now there are a few cold potatoes. Tell
the grocer he can sell for cash ard say
sood-by to bad debts when the dimes
no longer SO into the saloon till. Tell
the farmers there is going to be an
unheard of demand for flour and meal,
butter. cheese and eggs as soon as
beer drinkers cease fostering that IN
dustry and begin filing out the hol-
low cheeks OF wives and children.
