SEN. HOAGLAND
"PEEvED" over
WATER MEASURE
Bill Affecting Omaha Plant
Reported Out for General
File; Provides for
Salary Boost.
From a Staff Correspondent.

Lincoln, Feb. 2l.-State Senator
Walter v. Hoagland admitted in the
senate this morning that he was
nursing a personal "peeve" against
Senator John w. Robbins of Oma-
ha.
Hoagland's confession came in
connection with a committee report
on S. +. l29. the Omaha water
board bill which is being sponsored
by R. B. Howell. The committee
had reported the bill out for gener-
al file.
That the bill had been reported
out of the committee on municipal
of which he is a member,
was the charge Hoagland made.
Senator Robbins is chairman of the
committee and is also sponsoring
the bill.
Senator Robbins was not present
at the session this morning so that
his colleague, Senator c. J.. Saunders,
took up his defense. He said that
Hoagland had told the chairman
that he refused to attend another
meeting of the committee.
Hoagland Riled.
At this point Hoagland became
riled and informed Saunders that he
had not made such at statement; it
was absolutely false. In the absence
of his colleague, Saunders refused to
yield point and indicated he did
not have anything to retract. The
bill was accordingly placed on the
general file for consideration in the
committee of the whole. ~
The measure provides a salary
boost for the general manager. K.
B. Howell, by removing the res
striction of $1,000 as the salary limit,
allows the board of directors to fill
vacancies which occur for the I'M
expired term of the incumbent in
stead of only until the next general
election, authorizes the insurance of

fire protection by precincts outside
of the city limits and gives the dis

Two Garden Essentials Rich
Soil and Successive Paintings

In locating the home garden, it is
important, of course, that it be on a
warm, mellow, we'll drained soil, and
as near the house as practicable But
these points looked to, there are two
ether even more important These
are:
1. Make the garden soil rich.
Whatever else may be done, if the
garden soil be poor, poor crops of
vegetables are bound to be the re-
suit. For if soil fertility be negelc-
ted, the best of seed and cultural
methods will be of little avail. The
best of ali garden fertilizers is stable
manure. probably for the reason that
it carries both plant foods and hui
mus-forming materials. However,
manure is generally not we'll bal
anced fertilizer and needs to be sup
,plemented with acid phosphate, and
possibly with some potash-carrying
material
For the garden On average loan
or sandy loan soil, stable manure at
the rate of twenty to thirty tons per
acre should be used. This is best
applied early so that it may have
time to thoroughly rot; but there is
yet time to make this application, in
case it has not already been done.
Then we would supplement the ma
plete fertilizer at the rate of 1900 to
1000 pounds per acre. Such a fer
tilizer will usually carry enough phos
phoric acid and potash to balance
the excess of nitrogen carried by the
stable manure. Finally, on crops
that are grown particularly for their
stalks and leaves, liberal applications
of nitrate of soda in the form of
side dressings will usually pay well
because of the greatly stimulated
growth.
=. Keep the garden busy. There
is too much of tendency in the Cot
tea Belt to grow single crop in the
garden during the spring months
and then allow the land to grow up
in grass and weeds for the remainder
of the year. A garden so managed is
usually a poor investment, for it is
returning to the owner no more than
a small fraction of what it should. In
Cur mild Southern climate there are
some crops that may be planted al
most every month of the year, and
the wise gardener will so plan that
as soon as one crop is off another
will follow it.
Read what they say, and then
make your plans to have in 1919 the
best home garden ever.-Progressiye
Farmer
