u.e Wood ASHES boz FerhIi1er.


Many growers of garden truck
are to-day paying big prices for pot
ash fertilizers, while Missouri garden
ers are throwing away this same high
priced potash in the form of wood
ashes. If you insist on having a fer
tilizer with potash in it your fertilizer
dealer is at present compelled to
charge six dollars per unit for it,
while every ton of ashes has from
three to eight units in a very avail
able form. The day when every farm
had it's sash hopper" where the ashes
where dumped and water poured thru
them to leach out the potash I've for
making soft soap has almost passed.
Soaps can be bought so cheaply now.
The lash shopper" serves as an Illus
tration of the fact, however, that
potash is very easily leached out of
ashes. Bear this in mind when you
are tempted to throw wood ashes out
into the back yard or make a walk of
them. Carry them to the garden or
keep them under over. Besides the
potash in them, ashes are about one
third lime, which will help to sweeten
a sour soil or make a clay soil work
better. Root crops r especially
benefited by the use of potash and
large quantities are used in certain
potato growing centers.
One %precaution must be observed
in applying ashes to garden or field.
They are caustic and will burn the
leaves or stems of plants if brought
into contact with them. 1t is better,
therefore, to apply the ashes before
planting and mix we'll with the soil by
cultivation. Thus diluted they are
not harmful.
Ashes should not be considered as 8
a concentrated fertilizer, but should
be used in larger quantity than or
binary fertilizers. AS much as fifteen
hundred pounds per acre have beer
applied with good results.
Coal ashes have little fertilizine
value, altho they may make some i'm
provement in the working of a heavy
clay garden soil. Remem Der tho, i
you burn wood, that with presen
prices of potash it would cost abou
thirty dollars to buy the potash in
ton of good unleached wood ashes.

ADJUTANT GENERAL CATS

Gov Cats has accepted the Gaines
vile News advice and appointed his
son, Lieut.. Sidney ]. Cats, to the Of
flee of adjutant general of the state
The Star is not surprised. 1t did
not know Lieut.. Cats was at home,
else it would have been expecting the
appointment.
We have no doubt that young Cats
is competent to fill the office. He has
been in the army over two years,
some months of the time overseas,
and could probably cope with much
more arduous task than to command
the national guard of Florida, which
at present consists of about hundred
men, and isn't likely to increase
greatly under the administration OF
his father. All those who have spok
! en- to the Star about him from per,
sonal acquaintance have declared him
to be clever young man and a good
soldier
From political standpoint, the ap.
pointment is very bad one. It is
the most direct instance of nepotism
that has ever taken place in the his.
tory of this state. For the governor
to put his own son in any high office
is, according to democratic principle
inexcusable; it is even worse, accord.
ing to military ethics, to put an officer
OF his grade and experience in such
a position when there are in the state
scores of soldiers of higher rank and
much more distinguished service.
Young Cats would have done his
father favor by refusing to take
the office.-Ocala Star.

BARLOW SCHOOL OPENS:
500 In ATTENDANCE

Summerlin Institute opened it'
doors to the boys and girls of Barlow
Monday morning. This, the opening
day. the auditorium was crowded tc
standing room many visitors from al
portions OF the city being present.
/ A short program was rendered, in
which Rev. R. F. Clayman Of the
Presbyterian church Rev. Yates Of
the Methodist church, and County
Superintendent John A. Moore took
part.
At the close of the exercises when
Principal A. B. Conner came for
ward to make few announcements
the school greeted him with spontan-
cous acclaim, and continued to do SC
until Rev. Yates stepped to the front
of the platform and thanked them in
behalf of the principal for the love
and esteem shown him for his efforts
IN their behalf.
After singing "The Star Spangled
Banner a short recess was given,
after which the pupils assembled in
their various rooms where promo
tons took place Immediately.
The principal informs us that
the enrolment was $50, and which
he thinks will reach 600 within a few
days.
The high school is filled to over
flowing. The officials who construct
ed this building thought at the time
OF its building it would amply suf-
flee in size for many years to come.
This the beginning of the third year,
finds the building entirely too small.
The unpleasant situation in regard
to the school books must not be cred.
tied against our local authorities, as
us the fault Of state officials sending
out list books SO late that our local
agent could not procure them in time
fer the opening. But Prof. Common
reports that school will continue, the
teachers to make most of the situa-
ton until new books arrive, which
VIII be about ten days.
Now that we have a school second
to none in the state, let us all UNFOLD
the teachers and keep on a high
plane.
Following is the list of teachers for
the present term:
