Increasing OF the corn acreage

farmers as we'll as city dwellers are

but since both manure and the soils
generally are lacking in phOsphoric
acid the manfred land should re-

vice % Prof. A. T. Wiancko. chief
OF the soils and crops division OF
Purdue university Experiments
i'm Indiana and Ohio bear out the
statement that phOsphates may be
used at a profit with manure.
"On the ordinary three crop ro-
tation. corn wheat and clover. the
normal rate OF application for man

with some phosphate, say 100 70

not safe TO use more than this
amount in the row. In all such
cases. phosphate is the only thing

be profitable. Where no clover or
manure has been used for sometime
and the land is poor in organic mat

Immediate returns from phOs-
phate are the largest in practically
all cases. ON land in poor condi-

HARTFORD
FOR CONVENTION

Hartford, May 29---Hartford is the
city selected for the Republican state
convention, which will be held June
25 and 26 in Foot Guard hall. This
was decided at a meeting of the state
central committee held yesterday ,af-
ternoon. The date for the primaries
is June II and the senatorial caucuses
and city conventions on June Is. The
selection of a chairman for the con-
vention was7-left with Chairman J..
Henry Roraback.
A delegation of suffragists were in
the hotel, and requested a hearing on
the question of suffrage. Chairman
Roraback said he had received a re-
quest from the anti-suffragists that
they be given a hearing if the suf-
fragists were heard. AS the commit
tee has never made practice of hold
ing hearings of this character, it was
not considered proper business to
come before the meeting, and the re-
quest of the suffragists was tabled on
motion of John T. King of Bridge
port.
