TO HELP FARMERS
OBTAIN FERTILIZER
Secretary Announces Plan for
the Sale of Nitrate of Soda.


The Secretary of Agriculture has
announced the plan for the sale and
distribution of the 100, 200 tons OF
nitrate of soda for fertilizer use pur-
chased under the provision IN the Food
Control Act which authorizes the Presi-
dent to secure nitrate of soda and to
supply it to farmers for cash at cost.
A circular in which the plan is fully set
forth is being mailed to the county
agents who will receive orders for the
nitrate and transmit them to Wash
ington.
The f. o. b. price at ports will be
$75 so a ton, farmers paying the freight
charges from the port of arrival and
the state fertilizer tag fee. The plan
is that in each country where there is
county agent to have the agents as
sociate with themselves three or more
local business men in each community,
who will serve without compensation.
to assist them in the sale of the nitrate.
In each county where there is no county
agricultural agent committee of three
or more local business men will be APP
pointed. A farmer living IN such coun-
ty who desires to make application tor
nitrate of soda should, if he does not
know the address of the local COM
rnittee, address an inquiry to the state
director of extension for his state. The
postotfice address of the director of ex-
tension in each state is given in the
circular. The ships carrying the nitrate
will be directed to the most convenient
ports. including Charleston, Whining
ton, Savannah, Norfolk, and Baltimore.
Representatives who also will serve
without compensation. have been or
will be selected to handle the shipments
at these places.
Farmers will make application for
nitrate upon blanks furnished by the
county agents CT the local committees.
Applca ions must be signed and re-
turned so IS to reach the county agents
or members Of the local committees bv
February f. As the nitrate, under the
law, can be sold only Tor cash, The
farmer viii be redGired to deposit the
money covering the cost Of the nitrate
he wishes with tae local bank. associa-
Lion, or Individual 10 De designated bv
the department. The order will be
transmitted to the department, ac-
compauied by the amount covering the
same. If the quantity Of nitrate that
can be secured will fill orders, each
farmer will secure the amount he re
quests; Otherwise it will be necessary
TO allot the nitrate to those applying
for it So that al may participate on
equal terms in It's distribution. None
Of The nitrate viii be sold TO dealers,
either directly or indirectly It will be
sold only to farmers directly for cash
at cost and generally not in excess of
the amounts used by them heretofore.
The Government is making every eff
fort to reach farmers who desire part
of this nitrate. but states that it will
be impossible for the county agents or
other persons to visit every individual
farmer, and urges all who desire to
purchase nitrate to get in touch with
their local county agent or a member
OF their local committee.

"How are you going to tell if a sub

point that frequently comes up for
discussion. When the long day is

to swap yarns among themselves or

HOW STUDENTS
SPEND THE TIME
IN sunny ITALY

AMERICAN SEAPLANE TRAIN
ING CAMP, Italy, May (by maiD.-I
The day of an aviator under instruc-
ton is a long one in this camp, where,
thanks to the Astounding courtesies of
the Italian navy department, there are
plenty of machines The hours of a
student are not all taken up with the
soaring through the heavens, person
ally conducted by crack pilot-in-
structOr, who varies the monotony by
sharp dives after lake ducks which,
when caught on the wires, are handed
over to the Italian mechanics as a
bribe to increase their efficiency.
The official list of the studies which
are sometimes crowded into the day
of "a student includes instruction in
bluejackets' manual, such as the navy
regulations, what the navy is, what
a fellow may do to get ahead, and
so forth. Secondly, there is the vital
subject of motors, under which head
come the theory and practice of mo-
tors, how to repair them, how they
are made, their various parts, the diff
ferent kinds used in different ma
chimes, how to handle them when in
the air, and many other points.

in the list-how and why a machine
stays in the air, the angles of fitting
the different wing sections, and how
to make airplanes and the kinds of
woods and fabrics necessary.
The fourth study is radio or wire
less, with practice in sending at least
fifteen words a minute as an observa-
ton officer. Next comes navigation,
with elementary groundwork in the
handling of ships, but particularly in
the handling of both air and sea
planes with respect to the plotting of
courses. On top of this the student
gets infantry drill on the days when
the wind makes practice flying dan
gerous, or is permitted to play base
ball in place of setting-up exercises,
to keep him in good physical trim.
While most of the students already
have passed groundwork training and
examinations either in France or the
United States, this camp is consid
cred an excellent place not only 70,

SOLDIER AND SAILOR
INSURANCE.

The business Of insurtng our SOL
dieFs and sailors is scarcely<a year
old, and yet we have written more
than $4,000. 100000 of insurance, in
surfing approximately three and half
million of soldiers and sailors. This
gigantic business. employing 10000
individuals and doing greater busi-
ness than the largest insurance COM
pany Of the world. has all been or
ganized in less than IL months. OF
late the bureau has been doing more
than a billion dollar week busi-
ness; the total for the month OF
August will approximate $4,000. .000,-
900 In new insurance. On one day
92.253 pieces OF mail came to the
bureau.
1t is great work, an intricate
work, work that every American
approves Of. More than 80 per cent
of the members OF our military and
naval forces are insured, and this In
surance has strengthened the morale
OF our fighting mon and brought COM
fort and courage to their dependents
at home. In addition to the insurance
there are added soldier and sailor
