Socialists in Schenectady Reorganize
Their Local.
Schenectady, March 28.-U. Soloman,
secretary Of the Socialist State Com
mittee, was in this city tonight to re-
organize the socialist local, which had
its charter taken away because 1t fail
ed to discipline Mayor George r. Lunn,
accused of having violated the party's
State Constitution. About 200 Radi-
calls in the party were present to ap-
ply for reinstatement and new char
ter.
Mayor Lunn, DR.. Charles p. Sem
metz and other leading socialists who
have formed the bulwark of the party
in Schenectady, were not present. The
Lunn adherents who are not ready to
declare themselves for either faction
will have fifteen days to apply for ad-
mission in the new local, and failing to
do so will lose their standing in the
party.
About 100 socialists, many of whom
hold positions in the administration,
have cut loose from the party, and are
forming a new organization to be
known as the Social Democrat Club
The Lunn followers expect to enroll a
large number of non-Socialists in the
club. 1t Is said that DR.. Lunn and other
leading socialists will be active in this
organization.
Solomon does not take the new or
ganization seriously, saying that all

Mayor Lunn of Schenectady, who was
in this city last night, announced that
he had been formally ousted from the
Socialist Party by the organization OF a
new local in Schenectady by U. Solo
mon, Chairman Of the State Commit
tee Of the party, and that with him In
the expulsion was DR.. Charles p. Stein
metz. President of the Board of AL
dermen and internationally known as
an inventor. The action of the com
mittee said Mayor Lunn last night, was
the result of an appointment about
which the committee was not consult

Mayor Lunn, said that he had no
thought Of leaving politics. When ask

proposals of other parties which have
asked him to enroll in their number he
only smiled.

MAKE YOUR GARDEN
PLANS IN THE
Gave Time And Energy BY Having
Long Rows And Proper
Placing.
E. F. STODDARD,.

Maryland Agricultural College.
Long before the time Of seed plant
ing, the size of the plot should be Sc
cured and plan of the garden drawn
to scale This will enable the grower
to figure out just how many rows of
vegetables he can have, and also just
where each vegetable will be planted
Then when planting time comes, the
work can proceed without further diff
Guilty. An architect always draws a
plan before he builds a house. Is it
not just as important for the gardener
to plan his work beforehand? The
exact plan of the garden will depend
upon the personal tastes of the owner
and will be different for each individ-
ual
Whatever the size Of the garden may
be, it should be oblong in shape, that
is about twice as long as it is wide.
In the farmers garden, paintings are
made in long rows, wide apart, to per
NIT of horse tillage as much as is
possible. Here every effort should be
made to reduce hand labor to the
minimum, for time is more expensive
to the farmer than space. The main
effort should be to produce the best
yields with minimum expenditure OF
labor, regardless of the space required.
Twenty long rows require less turning
Of the horse at the ends than thirty
Ave short ones and this means time
and energy saved. Time and confu-
sion will be saved If vegetables are
grouped according to their cultural
requirements. For example, row
containing parsnips and satisfy, or
parsnips, late carrots and satisfy,
would make a good combination. But
a row containing parsnips, cabbage
and spinach would be faulty COM
bination. 1t would be well to place
the root crops together; the cabbage
crops liz the next space ana tomatoes.
peppers, etc, in another space. Many
men deem 1t advisable to run the rows
north and south when possible. A tall
crop like corn should not shade low
growing crop which requires great
deal of sunshine. All perennials such
as asparagus, rhubarb and hOrse-radlsh
should be planted along the outside OF
the garden where they will not inter
fere with the preparation of the land
for the annual crops.
Some gardeners begin to plant the
earliest vegetables at one side and
proceed across the garden as the sea
son advances. This makes it easier
to harrow the implanted portion at
any time desired and thus keep it free
from weeds and in a moist friable con-
dition. Other desirable features of
this plan are; all similar crops in any
row require the same amount and kind
Of tillage; crops occupying the land
about the same length of time may be
planted together; after early maturing
crops are harvested 1t is possible to
prepare a strip of land to plant late
vegetables. if desired.

directed to complete the road, about
twenty miles in length, by June l.,
1916. A serial bend issue is provided
for 10 the bill. The first State Roads

Crothers was chairman adopted as a
part Of the permanent system of high

road laid out in 1856 between Washing
ton and Annapolis and known as the
"Old Stage Road. This particular road
in the system was not reached under
the Crothers administration and the
commission headed by E. O. Weller, as
chairman, did not work on the Old
Stage road. The Maryland court of
appeals decided that the commission
had the right to select roads to be i'm
proved. The resolution introduced by
Senator Duvall and Delegate Van Horn
directs the delegations from Anne
Arundel and Prince Georges counties
to bring in bill for the building of the
road. 1t is claimed that the chief OBJ
ject Of the road would be its military
value for the defense of Annapolis,
Baltimore and Washington, in case of
. naval attack from the Chesapeake
Bay which is practically without forti-
hcation. But aside from this feature,
the highway would prove of ines timable
value to the State and to property
owners for several good and sufficient
reasone, and would, in time, prove a
good investment for the State by in
cresaing property values along the line

POTASH TOO EXPENSIVE FOR
FARM USE AT THE PRES.
EMIT TIME
H. B. MCDONNELL,
MARYLAND Agricultural College.


It is evident that potash at the pres
ent prices is entirely too expensive to
be used in fertilizers, and the price is
rapidly advancing, due to the exhaust
ION of potash supplies in the country,
which are now very low indeed. Fer
tilizers containing potash for the fall
trade will contain but very small
amounts and in many cases only a
fraction of per cent. In other words,
the potash content will be reduced to
q point where the potash, so far as the
amount ID concerned, is for practical
purposes a joke. One-fourth of one
half per cent Of potash when fertilizer
is applied at 200 to 300 pounds per
acre will bake less than a pound OF
actual potash to the acre. This is too
small an amount to have any practical
benefit. 1t should be remembered that
most soils contain an abundance OF
potash provided it can be made avail.
able. In nature, fortunately, potash
like other plant foods is liberated but
slowly from the soil, hence, 1t is i'm
possible to remove the entire amount
of potential plant food. In Bulletin
No 70 Of the Maryland Experiment
Station we find that potash in Mary
land soils is rarely less than 10
and in some cases will be found
to be as high as so, the aver
age being in the neighborhood Of
2%. The problem for the Maryland
farmer is by making proper use of the
agencies within his control, by the use
of fertilizers other than potash, by the
use of lime when required, rotation
of crops, growing of legumes and thor
ough cultivation, to make available so
far as possible the potash already in
the soil.

For Improved Road through
Marlboro.

House of Delegates, Annapolis, Md,
Feb, 18th, 1916.
MIR. Samuel A. Wyvill,
Upper Marlboro, Maryland
My dear MIR. Wyville:
i have recently
communicate with the State Roads
Commission in regard to the construc-
ton of road through Upper Marlboro.
The Commission informs me, that they
have constructed roads through several
same for Marlboro provided the people
show desire. Also that the balance in
their hands to the credit of our County
from the appropriation of 1914, is about
sufficient to construct this road.
Knowing your interest in the matter,
l am enclosing form of petition SUBJ
ject to revision at your pleasure, and
suggest that you circulate it actively
among the people of Marlboro, and also
secure the endorsement of few rep
resentative men from other sections of
the County; then return it to me as
soon as possible.
Aside from the fact that the people
of Marlboro are entitled to relief from
the present disagreeable and unsani-
tary conditions, every citizen of Prince
Georges should be interested in secur-
ing this improvement for our historic
County Seat. The impress sion created
by the town of Marlboro upon the
minds of the many who come there to
transact business during all seasons of
the year is largely responsible for their
impression of the County as whole.
Therefore, for not only sentimental but
for sound business reasons the propos-
ed improvement will be a thoroughly
profitable investment.
Very truly yours,
j. H. BLANDFORD, Jr
The petition is being held at the post
office. Call and add your name to the

use LIME FREELY
IN SOIL BUILDING
The Kind To Use And How To Apply
1t Economically.
H. j. PATTERSON,
Maryland Agricultural College.

The kind of lime to apply will de.
pend almost entirely upon the relative
cost Of the different forms. The main
function of lime is to correct acidity;
any form will do this but it requires
practically twice as much Ground
Limestone or Shells, and IA times
as much Hydrated Lime az Burned
Lime to do the same amount of good.
The ineness to which the raw ma
terial is ground determines to a great
extent its effectiveness. The finer the
better.
Whether we should use lime derived
from Lime Stone or Oyster Shells de,
Ponds upon how We are situated with
regard to transportation, since freight
rates are an important item TO con.
slider.
We cannot say that either source of
lime is decidedly better than the
other.
How To Apply Limo.
The method Of spreading lime will
depend upon the kind used If we
use Lump Lime we may slack it in a
large pile and spread it with a manure
spreader, or It may be placed in small
Ing, spread with shoyels. II the lat
ter method Is used, 20 pound heaps
Il peck) placed 20 feet apart each
way, or one bushel 40 feet each way,
will provide about one ton per acre.
The small piles have the advantage
over the larger ones in stacking more
readily, and on account of being close
together, will not necessitate it being
thrown SO far with the shovels when
spreading. Mixing this Stacked Lime
with fine earth before spreading will
make it less disagreeable to handle.
If the ground Stone or Hydrated
Lime be used, the most convenient
way to distribute ft viii be with fiIne
spreader. Caustic Lime should never
be mixed with manure or commercial
fertilizers. 1t is better to pillow the
manure under and put the lime on top
Of the soil after blowing. II CONNER
cial fertilizer is to be used the lime
should be applied few weeks before
the application of the fertilizer is
made.
Amounts OF Lime To Apply.
1t Is generally the best practice to
apply not less than one ton OF Burnt
Lime or two tons of Ground Lime or
Stone Oyster Shells per acre. Hy-
drafted Lime should be used at the
rate of IA tons per acre. Such an
application need not be given oftener
than once in five years. which makes
the cost not more than soc To $1.00
per acre per year.
When To Apply Lime.
There Is no doubt a best time to ap-
ply lime and for many reasons that
time is just after the land is plowed
for the corn crop. The processes re-
CURED in securing a good seed bed and
the cultivation of the corn will mix
the lime thoroughly with the top lay
ers Of the soil where it will be most
effective in performing It's main fGno-
ton; correcting acidity.
If clover has not been doing we'll
on the land and an application of lime
be given as suggested we may expect
a vigorous growth Of that crop when
1t Is again sown to clover. Probably
on no other crop will lime have SO
decided effect as ON the olovers. If for
any reason we do not get to make an
application Of lime for corn We should
not hesitate to use 1t in the fall when
preparing the land for wheat

LIME VALUABLE IN FREEING
POTASH IN THE SOIL.
H. J. PATTERSON,

Lime has not only the effect of aid
ing in the formation Of unions of pot
ash which will be held in the SOIL but
1t also has the ability to liberate pot
ash from combinations which are
locked UP and unavailable to plants.
This is particularly marked when lime
is applied to land containing frag-
ments Of feld-spar. Gypsum is par
tIcularly useful in rendering potash
available. and the sulphate of lime in
dissolved phosphates often have an
indirect value in this way
