Shortage of Fertilizer.

From department headquarters at Washing
ton comes the dsquietiny information that the
farmers OF the United States are to feel the eff
fects Of shortage Of fertilizer, due to the cut
ting off OF the potash supply. This is an incl
dental OF the war. but is in considerable de-
gree chargeable to our national habit of neglect
and procrastination. Our dependence on Ger
many for potash has long been known. and not
So very long ago was the subject for an exchange
OF notes that almost approached the acri-
monious, Germany having proposed to restrict
the amount Of the mineral sent TO the United
States The possible results OF default in the
German supply was then pointed out, and much
scurrying around to find suitable deposits in the
United States followed. The manufacture of
fertilizer through the fixat'on of atmospheric
free nitrogen by eectrolysis demonstrated,
but nothing was done to take advantage OF this
discovery until Its necessity was forced upon us
by the war. Now factories are being started
but at rather late date.
A shortage in the supply Of sulphuric acid
Is also reported. although the output of this ar
ticle was increased by more than per cent dur
ing the year. recent report from Washington
made the startling statement that 1900 tons OF
sIlphuric acid daily goes to waste in the smelteI
| fumes at Butte alone. These examples OF ma
| tional shiftlessness are not at all creditable
| They emphasize the fact that the United States
needs to be taught preparation in other ways
than for war.
Omaha daily bee., 1916-01-04
Timely and to the Point.

The Bee rises to endorse and reinforce some
editorial remarks made by the Lincoln Star UNI
der the caption OF "skinning the Public" in
which Il takes to task in unmistakable terms
the organized efforts OF our public officers to
manipulate legislation TO enrich themselves
OF the expense OF the taxpayers. The occasion
for the Stars outburst is rumpus raised In
Lincoln by dismissal from the fire department
for the good OF the service" but presumably
for pernicious lobbying. 1--WE tolerate with
equanimity." declares the Star, organizations
of county treasurers, of sheriffs, OF county
clerks and many other public positions, the pur-
lose in each instance being the skinning of the
public. Until the people wake up to the fact
that every such organization of public servants
is sort OF conspiracy against the public good,
one can not blame a member of a municipal de-
partment from resorting to the lobby to secure
a shortening Of his hours OF labor or better pay
for the time he puts in"
The Bee would not condemn these organlza-
tons in toto, for we can see that they could, II
they would. justify themselves by bending their
efforts to improving the service which is their
publicly professed purpose Discussion OF ex-
periences, adoption of uniform methods and per-
lection OF system are as desirable in the admin
istration of public business OF private bust
ness, but the trouble is that when our public
officers get together for these ostensible OBJ
jects, to which no one can object, they almost
invariably inaugurate a conspiracy to reach into
the pockets OF people who are their employers
for raising their own salaries, shortening their
hours. increasing the number OF Jobs under them.
grabbing the fees that come into their
hands. lengthening their terms, and other more
or less stealthy methods Of what the Star aptly
calls "skinning the public" The worst part Of
It is that they do not, even where they have
claims that may be meritorious, let them rest
there, but resort to the threats and pressure Of
their political influence and official prestige to
besiege the lawmakers with corps OF insdous
lobbyists drawing public salaries for time they
put in waylaying the public treasury.
We submit that the next legislature can and
should stop the abuses of these organizations OF
public officers without impairing their useful
ness along legitimate lines

Springfield Republican: Bird sanctuar-
les OF all Of the cemeteries OF the coun-
try. covering more than a million acres
OF land, are proposed by the National
Association OF Audubon societies. The
campaign IL directed not only to the
prevention of the use OF firearms In
cemeteries but the exclusion Of cats, the
growing Of berries and protecting shrub
berry and the supplying OF food in other
ways and OF nest-buildlng material. The
suggestion Is excellent.
St Louis Globe-Democrat: The atti-
tude of the United States toward the
subject Of defense Is the one taken by
President Jackson In his first inaugural.
Although himself q man of blood and
iron, he opposed a large standing army,
while fsvoring enlargement OF the navy.
Secretary Garrison in his annual report
argued that universal military service
is an impossibility, however desirable ex-
perts might find It. It Is hard to believe
that the deliberate conclusions Of his
official report have been so speedily
overturned. When he hears from the
country he will return to his previous
stand. Various societies are beating
tomtoms for preparedness. but IL they
hope to turn the United States into an
armed camp they have failed to reckon
with the spirit of Americans.
