FERTILIZER INSPECTION
PROTECTS THE FARMER
Collection and Examination Car
ried on by Agricultural Ex-
pertinent Station.

Six inspectors from the expert
ment station of the University
of Missouri are soon to start on
their yearly fall collection OF
samples of fertilizers used by
Missouri farmers. So much fer
tilizer is now being used in the
state that it has become nee
essary to protect the farmer
from poor and adulterated goods.
To do this the Missouri FERTILE
err Law provides that all fertil-
izers offered for sale in Mis-
souri, should be registered at the
experiment station; that regis
tration must include a guaran-
teed chemical cmoposition
which, together with a r%egistra-
ton tag, must be on every pack
age of the fertilizer; and that
the agricultural experiment sta
ton must collect and analyze
samples of fertilizers used by the
farmers.
The inspectors are sent out in
September and October, when
the greatest quantity Of fertil-
izers is on the market. They
collect samples from the dealers
cars, warehouses, farmers
wagons and other places, and
send them to the laboratories Of
the agricultural experiment sta
ton. There they are examined
to ascertain if the fertilizer Of
fered for sale is in accordance
with the registered guarantee.
At the close Of each year a re-
port is published showing the
results of all the samples an.
alyzed. The published report
also gives a list Of all manufac.
turers offering fertilizers fol
sale together with a list of thu
brands which are on the market
In addition, farmers may sent
samples of fertilizer to the agri
cultural experiment station tt
be examined for them.
During 1916, 1T localities il
SO counties were visited by tn
inspectors. About 800 sample
were taken representing %
different brands of fertilizer:
1t was found that though tn
guarantees sometimes excee
| the product, the composition q
the product sometimes is bette
than represented, and that o
) the whole the farmers of tn
state are well protected in tn
purchase of fertilizers.

INDEPENDENT FISHERMEN
 OF ALASKA HAVE HAD A
 BIG SEASON THIS YEAR

SEATTNE, Oct. 19.-mdepcndent fishermen who owned their own out fits were the men who enjoyed an ex- cellent financial season at Ketchi- kan, and adjacent fishing grounds" ]" saii IT, A. Buhring, fish packer of Ketchikan. who is at the Arlng- ton for a few days. according 10 the Seattle Post-mtelligencer.
 "The fisherman who had his own outfit was independent of the differ ent canneries and fish packing con. cerns, and could therefore dispose of his catch at the highest figure. as the runs of salmon and nalibut. as well 2s cod, were not as extensive as in past seasons. Fishermen receiv- ed cents for hunchback, IS and 14 cents for bright dogs and as high as 17 and IS cents for black dogs. One fisherman disposed of 17OOO sock eyes at 3 cents, making a neat sum on that haul alone. The halibut men also had an excellent season, as all of their catches were bought up as fast as their boats reported. It was a splendid season for the inc dependent fisherman. for he profited by the small runs, whereas the con. tract man received only the price quoted him before he took out his outfit"

GREAT GROWTH OF HUGHES
NATIONAL COLLEGE LEAGU

Thirty thousand college alumni
have enrolled SO far in the Hughes
National College League, oil Fifth
avenue, New York. The oldest living
graduate of Brown University which
graduated Governor Hughes, enrolled
this week. He is Rev. John Hunt
of Springfield, Ohio, ninety-three years
DID, Brown, 1912.
The league challenged the Woodrow
Wilson College Mems League this
week to join it in Having any repu-
table audit company In this city check
up Immediately from the original
cards your actual enrollments of
Princeton alumni and ours, your total
enrollments and ours, and your EN-
rollments from any college you may
select and ours"
The college men In the National
Guard along the Mexican border are
joining in drOves, according To the
officers of the league, and many have
written in to signify their discomfort
with the Administration handling of
the Mexican situation.
William X. Moody, son of Dwight
Lyman Moody the famous evangelist,
wrote to the league offering his as
sistance in East Mortified. Mass, and
said:
81 am among those who feel very
strongly that 1t would be a National
disaster TO have the present Admin
istration continued another season,
feeling deeply the humiliation TO
which our country has been subjected
in the sight of the world, by the lack
of any foreign policy, and by the
vacillation of its dealings"

col. ROOSEVELT APPEALS
FOR THE ELECTION OF
MR.. HUGHES.

appeal to my fellow citizens
that they shall elect Mr.. Hughes
and repudlate Mr.. Wilson be-
cause only by so doing can they
save America from that faint Of
gross selfishness and cowardlce
which we owe to Mr.. Wilson's
substitution Of adroit eIocution
for straightforward action. The
permanent interests Of the Amer
lean people lie, not In ease and
comfort for the moment, no mat
ter how obtained, as Mr.. Wilson
would teach US; but In resolute
championship of the ideals of
national and international DEM
ocratic duty, and in prepared
ness to make this championship
effective by our strength. Presi-
dent Wilson embodies In his per-
son that most dangerous doc
trlne which teaches our people
that when fronted with really
formidable responsibilities we
can shlrk trouble and labor and
risk, and avoid duty by the sim
pie process Of druoglng our
souls with the narcotic Of mean
ingless phrasemonoerlng. Mr..
Hughes, to the exact contrary,
efnbodies the Ideal Of service
rendered through conscientious
effort in the face OF danger and
difficulty. Mr.. Wilson turns his
words into deeds only II this
can be achieved by adroit polit-
leal maneuverino, by bartering a
debauched civil service for con-
gressional votes on behalf Of
some measure which he had
solemnly promised to oppose.
Our own self-respect demands
that we support the man Of
deeds done in the open against
the man Of furtive and shifting
political maneuVers; the man Of
service against the man who
whenever opposed by a danger
Gus foe always takes refuge in
empty elocution. - From the
Speech Of Col. Roosevelt at Bat
tie Creek, Michigan. in Behalf
Of Mr.. Hughes.
