BRED GREAT MEN
Italian City Of Florence May
Claim High Honor.
Birthplace Of Many OF Those Who
Rank. In Intellectual Ability and
Achievement, Far Above the
Rest Of Mankind.

At first thought one would be apt
to claim for London. the great metrop-
oils, the honor of having given birth
to the greatest number OF the worlds
geniuses.
Among other great Londoners the
following might be cited: Francis Ba.
con, philosopher and essayist; Spen
ser, Jonson, Milton and Keats, world.
known and honored poets; Hogarth,
Turner. Watts, Millas and Holman
Hunt, artists whose achievements are
acclaimed by all the world Of taste;
Fox, Pitt and Beaconsfield. statesmen
who have Influenced the building OF
empire; Daniel Defoe. the novelist;
Faraday and Huxley, the scientists,
and many others. All these would
stand In the very front ranks Of great
ness. some Of them, like Milton and
Bacon, towering above their fellow
men like mountain peaks among mole
hills.
The Frenchman would undoubtedly
stand up for the, claims Of Paris. quot.
ing a long list of poets and painters
and novelists and statesmen to justify
his boast.
The Italian would probably put the
question: How far back may we go
in this quest? For II ancient Rome Is
to be added to the record of the more
modern city. where will you find her
equal?"
Then Athens would lift up her clas-
sic voice in protest, and quote long
list Of her sons who have formed the
models of all subsequent time in art
and poetry and philosophy and archl-
lecture.
But there is another competitor
which can beat them oil in this COM
bat. Compared with London or Paris,
or even Rome, II Is small place.
The city is Firenze-Florence--the
native city of Savonarola, of Fra An
gelico, Of Donatello, of Botticelli. of
Leonardo da Vlncl, of the mighty Mi
ehael Angelo, the glory OF his age and
of all succeeding ages; Florence. the
city Of Boccaccio. the father of novel;
lists; Of Machiavelll, whose very name
is proverb, and Of the famous Me-
dici: yes, and lastly, Florence the city
of Dante, the first both in time and
position of this glorious galaxy of
stars Of the first magnitude.
How such small place ever gave
birth to so many mighty sons of
genius is one Of the standing puzzles
of heredity and environment and edu-
cation. Why does not Glasgow breed
geniuses? Nobody knows. During a
period of two hundred years Florence
was forcing bed for supreme achieve
ment. During that time the little city
broke all records, ancient and mod
ern, and 1t is hard to see where her
competitor Is to spring from who shall
take away her crown of laurels.

ton in carload lots now at the mines.
For practical results, 1t is essential
that the raw rock be finely ground to
the extent that 80 per cent of the ma
terial will pass through a sieve having
100 meshes to the linear inch.
How to Spread.
Where the raw rock phosphate is
used as a reinforcement for stable
manure, it may be spread at the rate
Of so to 60 pounds over each ton of
manure as 1t is hauled from the barn
or stable yard to the fields. A much
better practice, however, is to compost
the rock with the manure for a period
of a month or more before spreading
OH the fields. On account of Its adj
mirable absorptive qualities the raw
rock is used as an absorbent In dairy
stables. The common practice is to
spread about pint of the material
daily behind each COW in the stable.
Where a green cover crop, such as
eowpeas or soy beans, is to be turned
under. 1t is a valuable practice to
spread about 1000 pounds of raw-rock
phosphate an acre over the green stuff
before the blowing is begun. Products
are developed during the decOmposi-
ton of the organic matter which are
efficient in liberating the plant food
that is slowly available in the raw
rock. Where the raw-rock phosphate
Is applied in half-ton doses an acre to
q soil that is very rich In organic mat
tel the same beneficial results are
slowly notable as obtained where the
fertilizer Is turned under with the
green crop.
Best Form Of Acid.
The presence of decaying organic
matter In the soil increases the effec-
tiveness Of raw, ground rock ,phos-
pilates due probably both to greater
bacterial activity and the higher con-
tent~of carbon dioxide In such soils.
From a similar standpoint, the effec-
tiveness of raw rock phosphate Is usu-
ally increased after remaining in the
soil for year or more. Most crops
respond more quickly to applications
Of acid phosphate than to bone. basic
Stag or raw-rock phosphate. Accord
lngly. where the early stimulation and
quick maturity Of the crop are the
main considerations. acid phosphate Is
probably the best form Of phosphoric
acid to apply.
The question If whether increases
In yield ordinarily can be produced
more economically by applications Of
soluble or relatively insoluble phos-
pilates, must be considered In a meas
ure an individual problem for each
farmer. since II depends on a number
Of factors Of which the most important
are the nature Of the soil. the crop
ystem employed. the price Of the va
fious phosphates In each particular
locality and the length OF the growing
season.

Soap should he used very carefully
If you want to keep your hair looking

The best thing for steady use is Mul.

pure and greaseless), and is better than
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoontuls will cleanse
the hair and scalps thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it

are out of breath, if your heart beat iss
forced, trembling or irregular, you may
be the victim of functional or organic
heart trouble If you feel that you must
smoke or chew to quiet your nerves,
you are slave to the tobacco habit and
are slowly poisoning yourself WITH the
insidious deadly drugs, nicotine ana fur

altrnatives-kecp on with your self

You can overcome the craving and
stop the tobacco habit in very short

Doctor Tells How to Detect
Harmful Effects of Tobacco
Try These SIMPLE TESTS

New York.-Dr. Connor, formerly ol
Johns Hopkins hospital, says: Hundreds
of thousands of men who smoke and
chew and who believe themselves
healthy are suffering from progressive
organic ailments. They would never
have been afflicted had it not been for
the use of tobacco and most of them
would soon get well if they would only
stop the use of tobacco.
The best known habit forming prin-
eipal of tobacco is nicotine, but the
most deadly and demoralizing Is fur
fural. Both are deadly poison, which,
when absorbed by the system slowly,
but surely, affect the nerves, mem
branes, tissues, vital organs and vitality
of the body.
The harmful effect of tobacco varies
and depends on circumstances ant. the
individual. In some it causes general
debility, other catarrh of the throat, in
constipation, extreme nervous
ness, sleeplessness, loss of memory, lack
of will power, cowardice an6 fear, men
tai confusion, etc; i'll others it causes
heart disease, bronchial troubles, hard
ening of the arteries, palpitation OF the
heart, tuberculosis, blindness, cancer
and the common affliction known as to-
baeeo heart.
If you use tobacco in any form you
easily tetect its harmful effects by max
ing the following simple tests: Read
