The slogan OF buy GOVT. WAR
BoND . will soon go ringing through
the land as the idea is to make such
war loon a popular one and the bonds
being sold in as small sizes as $25
each. brings them within the reach of
the great body Of people of the coun-
try. America is putting money to
the allies as her part in the war for
the present, until she can marshal a
great army and train and equip the
same for actual participation IN the
war. So Uncle Sam is asking his
people to put up some OF the dough
for the present loan of five billion
dollars which he is floating Some
sum OF money, and If the war drags
on, his part of it will cal, for more
big loans, but such is one of the un-
avoidable results OF warfare.

30 that plants can not get at it. To
be available plant food must be in
soluble form; that is, 1t must dissolve
IN the soil water and change into just
the form that the plant can use for
us growth" says Professor Harper.
In fact" he continues, "a chemical
analysis may show that soil has lit

greater yields.

Giles. Soils derived from GRANTEES con-
tain considerable sand Such soils
are found very extensively In the re-
gion east of the Mississippi river.
Can these sandy loan soils of the
South be made to produce abundant
crops?
THE answer is Yes Proof is pro-
vided from the experience Of thou
sands OF farmers. They won through
proper farm management and fertili-
cation. Many farmers of the South are
today getting bale OF cotton to the
acre where they once got only one
third OF bale. They are producing
from so to rs bushels OF corn ON the
same land which q few years ago pro-
duced only 16 to 20 bushels.
What Is the secret of their sue
cess?
Is 1t in the change in the methods
OF cultivation? There has been con-
siderable improvement in this respect
Has 1t been due to deeper blowing ?
This has been a help.
Is it due to crop rotation? The
right kind of rotation Is beneficial.
What then is the great reason? 1t
Is this, the plants have been fed bet
ter and they have responded with bet
ter yields. In other words, 1t came
about through proper fertilization.

The recent confession of Joe Beard
on his death bed over in Marion

the hanging and pardon later on
is another instance OF the old prov

Proper Fertilization
Because II is q legume, many peo-
pie believe that II requires no fertili-

taken Nitrogen gathering nodules
do not begin to form on the roots Of
the plant until the nut is two-thirds
matured and If through lack of prop
er nourishment, the plant is allowed
to languish until this stage is reach
ed, the crop will be greatly curtailed
and profits lost.
The plant requires sufficient
amount Of nitrogen from a quick acting
source to carry 1t to the nodule form
ing period while the presence in suffi-
cient quantities OF phosphoric acid and
potash is essential during the growth
and maturity of the plant

tanning II per cent available phos-
phoric acid, IL to 2 per cent am
monia and 2 per cent potash, applied
at the rate of from 400 to 600 pounds
per acre, will make a crop OF both
nuts and hay sufficient to return the
cost of the fertilizer and leave hand
some profit while an unfertilized crop
will barely return cost of production.
The Profit Value
The profit value Of an acre OF well
cultivated and fertilized peanuts is
equal to the profit value of an acre OF
cotton producing two-thirds of a bale
to the acre.
The following tabulated cost and
value estimated by DR.. ]. N. Harper,
clearly proves this point:

ST. LOUIS, July 21.-With the sea-

such consistency that only a railroad
wreck or some other such catastrophe
can prevent the flag from going to
McGraw's club. Philadelphia. st. Louis
and Cincinnati still must be classed as
contenders, but, at best, they have only
an outside chance to land at the top
Of the heap. They should furnish

tions in the first division. however.
