HOW UNCLE SAM
HELPS FISH, LIFE
Work of the FairpOrt Biological Sta
tiCn is Explained Before Broad
way Mems Club.
Equipment, Problems and the System
Employed at Establishment Illus
trated by StereOptie0n.

If the present plans of the men who
have charge of the work at the Fair
port biological station are carried
through, it will be possible, in another
year or two. for any persOn&NghO owns
pond or lake to ask Uncle Sam and
receive full information as to the kind,
quality and number of fish with which
the pond may be most successfully
stocked.
This is one Of the by-prOducts of
the work al the station, as described
by Director A F. Shira in his address
to the Broadway Presbyterian Mems
club at night
The activities at the station were
considered in detail. and the account
proved a revelation to the men in the
audience, most OF whom knew merely
that the government has some sort of
work going on at Fairport, which has
TO do with fish.
By means of stereopticon pictures
Mr.. Shira showed up the equipment.
the problems and the work of the sta
ton most clearly. From the establish
ment Of the station to the present
time most of the attention has been
devoted TO the propagation of the
fresh water clans, whose shells are
useful in button making.
These claims are of a parasitic
growth. and il is necessary for the
young ones to become attached to the
gills and fms of fish during a part of
their growth in order that they may
live and develop. Thus, it is a part OF
the work of the scientists at the sta
ton to rescue fish which have been
left in sIoughs and ponds when the
rivers go down in the summer. and to
see that the rivers are kept well stock
ed with fish of the right sort, in order
to provide the necessary brooding
places for the clans.
Mr.. Shirs explained the methods
used for artifcally injecting" rhe
fish with the young clans, showing
clearly the careful and painstaking
work being done in this line by the
men OF the burea uof fisheries.
Gives Purpose of Work.
The purpose of this work, OF course,
is to maintain supply of clam shells
! for the use Of button makers, but in
cfdentally the men are seeking uses
I for the clam meat. thousands OF tons
| of which are wasted every year If
they can solve this problem they viii
/ thereby make an important addition
to the food supply. AT the same time,
! they are making a large contribution
| by the preservation or the common
varieties OF fish, such as bass. carp.
| catfish, buffalo and other edible varie-
! ties.

Sunday School Lesson
Bu DR.. Marion McH. Hull

that could have been effected, we have, l
believe, the explanation of the terrific
trial through which he had been pass
ing, and particularly at this time. Satan
realized that his kingdom was in great
danger, and this man was his strongest
opponent. AS the prince of the power
of the air. as the ruler of this world
darkness, he therefore exerted all of the
agencies at his disposal to get rid of
them. He was responsible for the
storm. On one other occasion on the
Sea of Galilee when Christ and His dis
ciples were in the boat, he tried to wipe
out the whole church by bringing up a
sudden storm; and he would have done
so had not Christ proved Himself strong
er than Satan, when He commanded the
waves saying, Peace, be still" Did you
ever think why they quoted down at
once? 1t was because Christ was strong
er than Satan, and Satan had to obey
when Christ spoke.
When the storm did not accomplish
it's work then Satan stirred up the sail
ors, and tried to have them kill Paul
through this plausible excuse, for Satan
is always plausible. And then when
that failed he tried the shipwreck. And
when that failed, he tried the serpent.
Notice Satans working: the storm, the
sailors, the shipwreck, the serpent.
Throughout ii all we hear the hiss-s-s-s
of the serpent from the Garden of Eden.
But all of his devilish Vaccinations
failed because Christ was. present. His
plan was that Paul should witness for
Him i'm Rome. While Satan could bring
the storm and the shipwreck and the
sailors. and the serpent, there was a
limit TO his ability. AS he had gotten
permission from God to test Job just
then he could not go beyond that but
and only" dob 1:12 and 2:6). So now
when Satan had reached his limit which
Christ had set upon him. He brought
salvation to Paul. and brought honor and
sufficiency. Christ used the leaky YES
sci and a mud bottom. He used julius,
barous people; and the governor of the
island: and then His own miraculous
power. as the means of doing for His
servants what was necessary.
Satan may bring all kinds of hard
ships into your life, but If you are Gods
child, if you have been adopted into
Gods family because of the grace which
His only begotten Son has bestowed
upon you-then you may be sure there
is a wall beyond which Satan cannot
pass and thai there is way of escape
for every testing so that you may be
able to stand; for Jehovah redeemeth
the soul of His servants, and none of
them that put their trust in Him shall
be condemned" This was true when
David said it; and il is just as true to-
day, for Jesus Christ is the same yes
terday and today and forever" and "Je-
hovah changeth not"

There would be no objection to mixing
900 pounds of high:grade acid phos-
phate and 400 pounds of nitrate Of soda
together to make a ton of fertilizer. For
most crops and soils this formula would
be somewhat higher in phosphoric acld
than is necessary, as such a mixture
would contain about 1913 per cent or
available phosphoric acid and 81 per
cent of available nitrogen. In our tests
here at the college and i'm other parts of
the state we have found 3-S, S-9 or
$40 to give very good results, depending
on the character of the land and the
crop to which it was applied. OF course
in former years We have advocated the
use of a 1898 or S-9-4 depending on the
soil type. The highest per cent of pot
ash has seemed to give the best results
on the sandy lands of south Georgia.
As potash is out of the question, the
com bination you have made would be
considered a good one, but if you should
make any change in the mixture 1t
should be in the direction of cutting
down the amount of acid phosphate.
However, phosphoric acid has been
found a very valuable element in hasten
ing the maturity of cotton, and hence
il in an advantage to use a liberal ration
OF It in those sections of the state
where the boil weevil is present or
likely to do serious damage next year.
There is no objection to the use of as
much nitrate of soda as you have sug-
gested. While this element becomes
very readily available if it is thoroughly
mixed in with the soil, the chances are
that the crop will utilize most of it UNI
less the land is very open and sandy
and unusually leachy on that account.

treatment: Remove the animals from
the pasture in which they have been

Give soft nutritive food, such as bran

 Harris was very much in doubt yesterday whether he was going to be able to recruit the regiment up to full war strength. The state has been drained of a goOdly portion of its men thus far If one thousand more are to be raised, it will almost crlp- pie the states industries.
 In order that the regiment may he mustered into the United States ser vice, if is necessary to bring it up to peace strength.

B|G WEEK FUR THE ROOSEVELT PEOPLE.

During the past week, two events Of importance have taken place in the Roosevelt district. The first was meeting at the Neighborhood House on Tuesday night, at which time the notes which have been standing against the building were burned, sig nifying that the last of all indebted ness on the building had been wiped out.
 Dwight E. Heard was present at the ceremonies and gave an interesting talk, telling of the development of the district, the building of the house and other interesting details concerning the district. MT. II. c. Wheeler, president of the Ladies' club, applied the torch to the paper, and the audience ap- plauded throughout the burning.
 On Friday night, one of the largest classes since the school was organized was graduated. The exercises were particularly appropriate and pretty NeighborhooG House was crowded with friends and relatives of the graduates. Several good talks were given by prominent men from Phoenix and tnu Roosevelt district
