will not pop at all. If corn pops well
the bulk should be increased 20 times.
Do not throw away the 'old bache-
Tors" Chose that won't pop).~ but put
them through the coffee mill or meat
grinder and serve as breakfast food !;
they give variety and are far superior
to many breakfast foods.
Well popped corn, with cream and
sugar, makes most appetizing break
fast dish. When served in this way
they may be ground or served whole.
AS garnish for corn soup table
spoonful or two Of well-buttered corn
on top of the cupful of soup adds to its
appearance as well as food value. For
chocolate lovers the popcorn coated
with chocolate is relished. Take two
cupfuls of sugar, half cupful Of corn
starch, two squares Of chocolate and
cupful Of water. Cook until the sirup
hardens when dropped in water. While
hot. pour this strip over four quarts
OF freshly popped corn and stir we'll to
insure a uniform coating Of the kerr
nelS.
Sugared popcorn Is another nice con-
lection. Make strip by boiling to-
gether two cupfuls of sugar and one Of
water until the strip hairs or hardens
in cold water. Pour this sirup over
six quarts of popped corn and stir I'M
til the grains are well coated.
Popcorn BaIls.-Take pint Of mo-
lasses, pint of water, two table
spoonfuls of butter and a teaspoonful
of vinegar. Cook till the sirup will
harden in cold water; add half tea
spoonful of soda dissolved in a little
water. Pour over four quarts Of corn,
stirring until all the kernels are COW
cred. then press while hot into balls,
with buttered hands.
A handful of fluffy white kernels of
we'll popped corn will add to many des-
serts or entrees.

COMMERCIAL FERTILIZER
PRICES AND SUPPLIES

The demand this season for fer
tilizers has been rather heavy.
There seems to be general DISPOSE
ton in the older fertilizer-using Sec
tions to make heavier per-acre APP
plications, and farmers in sections
hitherto using fertilizers only in a
small way are increasing the size of
the per-acre applications and in
creasing the acreage fertilized.
These facts, coupled with short sup
plies and poor transportation, have
resulted in scarcity, with high
prices.

IA Shortage of Nitrogen
Carrying Materials

AS we pointed out last fall, nitrate
of so soda was then selling SO low as
to be out of line with other COM
modities, and we advised purchases
at the prices then prevailing. AS we
anticipated, price in carlots f. O. b.
ports have risen from $50 ton the
first of November to $50, the present
quotation. But even more serious
than the higher price is the fact that
sales are not being made except for
April and May delivery.
However, when it can be had at
Jail, nitrate of soda even at present
prices of $50 to 500 ton is our
best and cheapest sourse of nitrogen,
and we advise its use. Cottonseed
meal is much too scarce and high
priced to be even considered as a fer
ltilizer, and the heavy export demand
for sulphate of ammonia has virtu-
lally taken it off the Southern fertili-
yer market.
U.-Acid Phosphate Scarce
Prices on acid phosphate have
ruled steady at around $26.25 a ton
| in carlots, with quotations ranging
from $27 to $32 in small lots. Due
to strikes at the mines and lack of
cars, production has been curtailed,
and nearly all manufacturers are re-
porting that they are sold to capaci-
Ity. We do not look for any material
increase in acid phosphate prices
this season, but we do expect to see
shortage. Our frank advice to our
readers is to buy what they need
without delay.
III.-Potash Shortage Continues
Importations of French and Ger
man potash have failed to reach the
volume expected, and we are again
facing shortage of potash-carrying
materials. Potash may be had in
some mixed fertilizers, but materials
zerskalnlt and muriate and sulphate
of potash are practically off the mar
ket In so far as the farmer is con-
cerned. Some arrivals of foreign
potash goods are reported, but the
volume of arrivals is proving insult
ficient.
In the case of all fertilizer mater
lals, it begins to look like the demand
may be greater than the supply. We
do not believe Progressive Farmer

Back in 1913 j. +. Williamson in
vented what he called the Submarine
Tube, a long flexible arrangement in
tended TO be lowered from the bot
tom or side of ship into the depths
of the ocean for the purpose of per-
hitting divers in a chamber at the
bottom of the tube to examine
wrecks in safety. At that time he
he had no thought of applying it's
use to motion pictures. But later It
dawned upon him that photographs
of life beneath the waters had never
The result was Twenty Thousand
Leagues Under the Sea-" followed by
"The Submarine Eye" which created
a furore in the motion picture world
when they were first produced. Now
he has outdone himself and the re-
suit is Girl of the Sea-" a powerful
and stirring screen drama which
comes to the Strand Theatre next
Thursday and Friday, June II and
Is.
Here the audience not only gets
several glimpses of the wonderful life
beneath the waters and on the
oceans bed but are treated to actual
dramatic action which makes up the
story. For novelty, Girl Of the
Sea- outdoes anything ever before
shown on the screen.
II seems almost incredible. but
