piled to clay and loan soils.
Nine farmers out of ten
should fertilizer wheat this
fall. Fertilizer not only in
creases the yield directly, but
the greater supply of available
plant food makes stronger
plants that withstand the at
tack Of fungus diseases and
insects better than those I'M
fortified. At present prices
the farmer may expect a re-
turn of at least five dollars for
every dollar spent for wheat
fertilizer this fall.
The Importance Of ordering
early cannot be- too strongly
emphasized. Those who order
early will get what they want,
while those who order late
will be compelled to take what
is left, or do without.-Adv.y

Fertilization OF WHEAT.

i The following statement
concerning the fertilization OF
wheat this fall was issued by
the department of agricultural
extension at Purdue Univer-
sity. July 4, 1917:
The fertilization Of the
wheat crop was never more
important than it will be this
fall. From every part of 1ndi-
ana come reports of the excel
lent results secured from fer
tilization and the very poor
Yields of wheat secured from
unfertilized soil. By fertiliz-
ing, the farmer swaps dollars
for eagles.
evidence on the profita-
bleness of fertilizing h e
wheat is abundant" "In 1915
L.. M. Waggoner Of St. Joseph
county, applied two hundred
pounds Of acid phosphate to
the acre. on all but a small
part a field sown to wheat.
From the fortified part he Sc
cured 22.4 bushels of wheat
to the acre, and on the infer
tilted. 1875 bushels to the
acre-a gain of 90 bushels,
due TO fertiliZing."
This year two hundred
pounds of acid phosphate will
cost about 1925, and wheat
is worth $500 per bushel. On
this basis the increase secured
by Mr.. Waggoner would be
worth $3.50 and the profit
after counting expenses of ap-
plying fertilizer and paying
for harvesting and marketing
the increased crop would be
more than $500 an acre. If
this isn't a case of swapping
dollars for eagles it comes
very near to it.
The Ohio experiment sta
ton of Wooster, as an average
for the last twenty-t wo years,
has secured an increase OF
80 bushels Of wheat to the
acre, from an application OF
100 pounds of acid phosphate
to. the acre. The phosphateo
yield has been 1912 bushels
and the unphosphated AZ
bushels. Where 1000 pounds
of potash has been added tC
the phosphate, the yield has
been 20.4 bushels to the acre
or an increase of 1.2 bushels
more than was secured from
phosphate alone. Even at pre-.
sent prices for wheat and be,

Friends Call Swami
Victim of Politics
Object of Charges, They Say,
Is to Insure Election Of
City Club Candidate

supporters Of District Attorney
Swami have assured him that the man
ner in which charges are being piled up
against him shows conclusiyely that he
is the victim of political persecution.
Its real object. they say, is 20 bring
about the election of City Club can
didate next fall and after that the
placing of Assistant District Attorneys
on the civil service list.
Mr.. Swami admitted last night that
he had been so informed by his friends.
This was just after Governor Whit
man, through his secretary, William A.
Orr. had served on the District At.
torney copy of the charges filed
agains. him by Michael A. Rofrano.
Mr.. Swami said:
last December was notified by the
State Civil Service Commission Of a
contemplated change in the application
Of the civil service so as 10 include all
but about eight or ten of the assist
ants on the District Attorneys staff.
! was told that when that rule went
into effect the az siStlnts affected would
be non-removable. At "A hearing on the
proposition, on February 20. this office
was represented and strongly opposed
the plan"
Mr.. Swami said he had been informed
