Potash and Phosphates.

The agricultural department of the
University of Illinois has published an
other report dealing with the soils OF
this state and the fertilizers which
they need. This new investigation
like the last, shows that Illinois farm
ers need not worry about potash. With
the exception of swamp lands our soils
have all the potassium salts they need,
and the addition of more is a stimu-
liant rather than food
What Illinois land usually does lack
is phosphorus, and the United States
has a plentiful supply Of phosphate
rock. This is good news to farmers
who had been taught that the lack OF
German potash would cut down their
crops. 1t tends likewise to stimulate
an American industry which was be-
ing hidden behind clever foreign ad-
vertising. By the time this war ID
over, America will know how much
potash fertilizer it really needs, and
what the stuff is worth on the SOIL"

Five hundred and fifty dollars have

suit of an address given yesterday aft

Beaver who has been working among
| the prisoners of war and is soon re-
turning to the field after a campaign
in the interest of the work in this
country.
Mr.. Beaver gave a very interesting
address yesterday afternoon in which
he told of the work that the Ameri-
can Y. NJ. G. A. is doing among the
| prisoners of war on both sides of the
European conflict. ....
The speaker stated that the Ameri-
can Y. M. c. A. is practically the only
organization that is given access to
the prison camps. of Europe and that
! all denominations in the religious
world in Europe have gotten behind
the American organization for the
purpose Of furthering it's work.
The Y. NJ. G. A. of this country is
preparing to increase its force of sec
retaries in the prison camps and is
raising $l,000,000 for the work which

and injured in the camps.
1T has been almost impossible for
the people of America to learn just
what the situation is in these prison
camps where upwards of 100000 of
men are confined" said the speaker.
! The needs of these men are appalling
but up until recently very little has
been done to relieve their suffering or
provide them with occupation. For the
past year, however. the American Y.
! NJ. c. A. has been sending secretaries
into these camps and through them
has been able to render untold service
to the men. The association is the only
Organization which is permitted to
send men into the camps unaccompan-
| led by an armed guard. To date these
secretaries have reached only some
500 camps out of a total Of over 10000,
but their work has been so tremen-
dously fruitful in service that 100 more
men are being sent out this fall.
There is a great special reason why
the students of America and the stu

in these prison camps. Not only are
