of endeavor in this county and for
prospects we feel appreciative. The
increases over last years fair are most
encouraging and gratifying and prove
to US all that we can do if we will do.
And from the experiences of last year
and this we can and will have a bigger
and better fair next year than we had
this. The meeting and mingling to-
gether of the five thousand visitOre to
the fair was worth thousands to US, and
we have in Somerville and Fayette
county too few such gatherings where
citizens rub shoulders with each other.

ton because she polled in the presi-
Dental election her full quote of demo-

800 votes in the last election and now

normal vote in the convention. 1t il

To The People of Somerville

In our age of progress, it is crafty.
ing to see music. after years of wait.
ing, coming into her own. Every en-.
terprising community now recognizes
the benefits and value of public recitals
and community chorus.
Careful thought and study shows un.
usual possibilities for a community
chorus in Somerville. AS the county
seat, we are in position to influence
the entire county. The young people
are enthusiastic and can do excellent
work.
In meeting Saturday, last, the
plan and needs of such an organization
were discussed before an interested
group of girls and boys.
Our object is to learn to sing, be
happy and improve our community.
No. 2. There will be no membership
fee. Every girl and boy is expected to
help. As little as possible will be ex-
pended for necessary material. We
are going to be very economical in
order to bring to Somerville. once in a
while, unusual musical advantages:
AS far as practicable. in chorus
work, the physical exercises for po-
sitior, correct breathing and pure tone
production will be given. AS strictly
scientific methods are employed, this
physical work viii tend to make
stronger happier young people.
Care will be exercised in the'fselec-
ton Of music used. OF necessity,
short, simple studies must...be used at
first. These win be selections from
such modern composers as Gsynor and
Ehrmann, and win be supplemented,
as soon as possible, BY more advanced
selections.
Il il needless to say that such an
organization win add much to our
town. We are going 10 have 1t but il
cannot be the best without the support
Of the citizens of Somerville. Shall
we keep this inestimsbIe gift from
our young peopIei
You are cordially invited to visit rs
at the court house Saturday afternoon
at three.
Yours for the education and culture
Of your child and our community. s. NJ.

Companion Crops.

Crimson clover may be sown either
alone or with various companion crops,
the most common of which are the
winter grains. This mixture is ad-
vised under the following general CON
ditions:
Extremely poor land-Wheat and
rye will succeed on poorer land than
clover.
HLRnd Of medium fertility with
late preparation and late seeding
Grains help to prevent the clover from
freezing out.
3-Very late seeding on rich land.
All lands intended for heavy pas
turing Grains make frmer turf.
Wheat and rye are best companion
crops on poor land Wheat reaches
the green manure stage at the same
time that clover does. Rye is slightly
earlier than crimson clover. Oats and
barley produce more pasture OF better
quality on rich land.

SAVE FERTILIZER ELEMENTS.
Ingredients Existing In the Soil
Should Be Utilized and Developed.

Ingredients Existing In the Soil
Should Be Utilized and Developed.
In the unusual conditions existing in
the fertilizer trade, says statement
just issued by the secretary Of agricul,
ture, it is important that all fertiliZing
materials on the farm, especially those
containing potash, should be conserv-
ed. The fertilizer ingredients already
existing in the soil should be utilized
and developed to the fullest extent.
A great deal can be accomplished in
this direction by deep blowing, con,
slant cultivation and thorough tillage
There should be proper system Of
rotation. Especially where one crop
has been grown for several years a
different one should be planted this
year Green manures and cover crops
should be used as much as possible In
their proper rotation.
Of the organic substances manure
both solid and liquid, is the most i'm.
portant and should be utilized when
ever possible. All material or an or
ganic nature. such as leaves and bed
ding of various sorts, should be com
posted and the compost applied to the
soil Special attention should be given
also to the conservation of wood
ashes. Depending on the character Of
the wood, they contain potash in guam
titles varying ordinarily from 3 to 10
per cent All tree trimmings brush
cuttings, etc, should be burned and
the ashes derived therefrom utilized
The application of lime to many
soils is Of undoubted benefit. Though
the availability of the fertilizing ele,
ments in the soil may not be greatly
increased by its use, the resulting i'm
provement in physical and bacterial
conditions may increase considerably
the productiveness Of the soil.
