FERTILIZERS FOR GOOD CROP
Wastes Obtained in Utilization Of All
Plant Products May Be Made
Use Of.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agrlculture)
Since fertilizers are used rs food
for plants it will follow that plants,
and particularly certain parts Of
plants, may serve as fertilizers for a
new crop. This fact has long been
recognized, and the wastes obtained in
the utilization Of all plant products
may therefore be disposed Of for fer
tllizer use. At one time plant
waste known as cottonsced meal oh
tanned in the manufacture Of cotton
seed oil, constitute the largest single
source Of nitrogenouS material used
in fertilizers, and the quantity still
used for this purpose Is in excess Of
100000 tons annually. Plant wastes
of this kind, together with certain ami
NAL wastes, as dried blood, are now
being used however more and more

utilization Of organic wastes fcrtilz-

Seeds of hairy vetch are small and

a conclusive distinction between the
two kinds is seen in the seed sears
with the aid of a magnihcr. The sears
of common vctch are narrowly wedge

the scar in the hairy yctch is broad

n farm practice not generally en-
ployed Is the use of the weeder or the
spike-tooth harrow instead of the uSu-
al one-row cultivatOr in cultivating
crops like corn, cotton and potatoes.
This practice does not involve buying
new implements. 1t means only diff
ferent use of those already on many
farms, yet it reduces labor cost 40 per
cent and does The job in one-third the
time.
On well-prepared ground which is
free from stones, clods and trash, a
two-section harrow or IA 12-foot weeder
can be used for all but the heaviest
cultivating until the crops are 5 to 6
inches high, and will do the work
in One-third the time required by a
two-horse cultivator BY using the
larger implements the cost of cultiva-
ton is reduced from 30 per cent to
about 20 per cent of the cost Of grow
ing the crop. besides releasing valu-
able farm labor fer other work dur
lliS tie UuSH season. II desired, the
crops can be cultivated twice as often
during the first part of the season, in
which case there will be little hoeing
and cultivating to do during haying.
In either event the weeds are killed

at time in June.

Driving weeder or even harrow

crop plants are tough and heavily
rooted and are not damaged perma-
nently, either by the harrow or the
horses. A few plants are uprooted
and there is some tearing of the

offset by seeding a little more heavily
than usual. Weeds, on the other hand.
are mostly shallow-rooted, and are
nearly all destroyed. However. the

''In little field hospital west of

an American boy, one of those victims
of the German mustard gas, with which
the Huns are making all their present
gains. His eyes were matted with yell
low pus and he could not see. His face
was terribly burned. His lips were
swollen and purple. His whole body
had been turned the color of an Indian
and portions of it looked like melted
flesh, as though it had been liquefed.
"The fighting had been renewed all
along the American lines, and German
wounded had begun coming into our
hospitals. l said to this soldier:
1.-The boys are getting their revenge
for you fellows tonight. he smilen
through his scared lips, and in voice
so faint that had to bend down to
listen, he gasped, God! wish L was
back there with 'em!'

NO IDLENESS
AFTER JULY l
Men Engaged in Useless Occupations
to Be Indicted Into Military
Servi e.

Draft boards have been charged with
the responsibility of preventing idle
ness and unproductive employment on
the part of registered men. After July
1, 1918, any registrant in Class l, IL,
Ill, w who is reported to Local Board
as being an idler or engaged in an oc-
cupation in which he is rendering no
effective assistance TO the nation will
be hailed before the exemption board
to show cause why his deferred classi-
fication, if any, and his order number
should not be withdrawn. If it shall
appear to the satisfaction of the board
that without reasonable excuse the
registrant is an idler or not usefully
employed, he shall be liable to inn
mediate induction into the military
service.
If registrant is idle, he, of course,
is not occupied or employed at all, and
his status Of idleness furnishes ground
for the withdraw of his deferred
classification or late order number.
The regulations applicable to idle regis
trants are applicable also to gamblers
of all descriptions and employees of
race tracks and bucket shops, and to
fortune tellers, clairvoyants, palmists
and the like, who are to be considered
as idlers.
! The employment or engagement OF
any able bodied registrant of military
age in any of the following occupa-
tions is not sufficiently effective, in
the present emergency, to justify the
postponement of his call into military
service, notwithstanding he may have
late order aumber o. have been plac-

ground of dependency, and he will
therefore be considered engaged in a
