PLANT GROWTH INDICATES
FERTILITY REQUIRED

II farmer is at all thoughtful In
the matter Of the purchase Of fer
tilizers. he Will hesitate before buy.
Ing until he has satisfied himself
that he is buying the right kind, says
W. r. Hendrix, professor of agron.
omy, Louisiana State University.
The use of fertilizers is commend.
able under certain conditions and as
a part Of certain practices. j; is the
farmers duty to understand these
conditions and these practices before
he undertakes TO apply fertilizers to
his crop.
In the first place, he should by nll
means understand the needs OF the
soil he is working with. If he does
not, he is not in position 70 use fer.
tilizors intelligCntly. Not only do the
soils vary in their supply OF plant
food but they also vary in their needs
correspondingly, 4 farmer may not
be able to make an analysis, but he
can observe the character of the
growth Of plants in the soil and de.
rive therefrom some idea as to the
needs.
First-rapid growth, with good
color, plenty Of lean. indicates good
supply Of the element Of nitrogen, or
tina, the soil contains what the farmer
often refers TO as ammonia"
Second-good proportion of fruit
such as heads Of wheat, or oats with
well-flled grains, or wellflled, large
ears Of corn, indicate a good supply
Of the element PHOSPHORUS.
Third-bnd color, fruit dropping
easily, stalk lodging or falling, indi.
Gates a lack OF potash. Good upstand'
ing. stir straw indicates enough
potash,
These three elements constitute the
limiting ones, the ones which the soil
usually lack one or two or all OF
them, They are the ones which are
contained IN commercial fertilizers
which are, as is commonly called
Complete"
Now let the farmer notice how
plants grow IN his soil, Does HI
notice plenty of color, leaf and stem
or stalk growth, but very notice
able lack OF seed production? l
means lack OF phosphates in the soil
but not any lack OF nitrogen. !
would be folly for him to buy fer
tillser containing nitrogen for such
condition, at the present cost OF nitro
gen, Let him buy only what
headed In this case, some fertilize
containing phosphorops largely, sue
az steamed bone meal, or acid pho'
phate,
II he has good color and good lea
and stalk, but poor grain yield an
the grain falls down or lodges easil!
there is need for both phosphorou
and potash. Let him buy then onl
phoEphorous and potash, any numbe
of combinations OF which he may fin
ON the market, or he may buy tn
separate ingredients and mix thsl
himself. :,
II the indications are that each ell
ment is lacking in his soil, then h
NAV buy mixed fertilizers containin
all three elements, In all sorts OF PR
portions. II he does not know whs
nronor,ions to buy, let him write III
Experiment Station for help.
The fertilizer question Is larg
one, and needs much more elaDor
ton than is possible here

Have Your Car
Cylinders Re-bored
TO CAR OWNERS:

TO CAR OWNERS:
While in Chicago I purchased the following
new equipment for my garage: one of the latest
improved cylinder boring machines, valve grind
ing and recedng machine, battery testing ap-
paratus, and torch for repairing radiators.
With the first can make your worn cylinders
as good as new and as accurately bored. The
valve grinder enables me to regrind that import
ant part of car The battery tester will disclose
at once what is wrong and where the battery
trouble is, and the torch viii readily repair any
leaks that may have sprung in the radiator.
I now have as complete an equipment for
auto repair work as will be found anywhere in
this part of the state with experienced work
men in charge. Better have your car fixed up
now before the spring rush. All work guaran-
teed Call and see samples of work done with
these new machines.

Of the horrors of Turkish massacres
and deportations. Saved by an Ameri-
can woman, she has come to this coun
try and entered Oberlin College.
With her came fourteen other Arme-
MAN girls in charge of Miss Adelaide
S. Dwight, q Near East Relief worker,
who has been instrumental In helping
to save hundreds of thousands Of their
people from death by starvation. Miss
Dwight, who is not given to exagger-
alton and has seen conditions at first
hand, says more than million people
are facing death by starvation in Ar
menia and will perish unless America
aids.
Herself an eyewitness to the slaugh-
ter of hundreds Of helpless women
and children by the Turks and vic
tim of the deportations, Miss Dake-
sian, an unusually pretty girl, says
there is untold. suffering in Armenia
and Syria. She praises the efforts of
the Near East Relief, formerly the
American Committee for Armenian and
Syrian Relief, to save as many of
these people as possible. At Erivan,
the capital of the Armenian republic,
one hot meal is given out daily, and by
this relief alone the city's death rate
has been cut from a thousand daily to
an average of twenty. At Alexandra
pol, where the refugees from Turkish
Armenia were driven by thousands, the
situation is appalling, Miss Dakesian
says. 1t is to avert these wholesale
deaths that Near East Relief is making
a nationwide appeal for funds.

BOY SCOUTS IN
YOUNG ARMENIA
Sirangest Troop of All in Con-
stantinopIe Being Made Into
Good Citizens.

American Boy Scout training Is aid.
Ing prominently in the rehabilitation
Of hundreds of little Armenian boy
refugees from the Turkish massacres,
who have been organized into scout
troop in Constantinople as the solution
Of one Of the most troublesome prob
lens that confronted the Near East Re-
lief workers in that city.
Hounded and driven for four years,
having seen their parents and relatives
slaughtered or worse by Turks and
Kurds and themselves forced to beg,
steal or do almost anything to exc out
the bareSt existence, these boys had
completely lost their moral sense when
they finally found refuge in the Near
Cast Relief orphanges.
The boys had been clad in rags for
so long that they had forgotten how to
take care Of clothes This was tragedy
when the Near East Relief had need of
every pair of shoes and of every suit
of clothes for new boys constantly com
ing in.
Then the boys were organized as
Boy Scouts and given their uniforms
They began to be careful of their
school clothes as well as Of their uni
forms.
They had been so often hungry they
had come to steal without compunc-
ton. When they first entered the or
phanages they continued to steal. One
boy stole a purse from his American
teacher. For two or three weeks after
he became a Boy Scout he was obvious
Iy uneasy. One day he came to her
with the purse in his hand.
"I don't want to give it back" he
said reluctantly. "But ! have to. I'm
a Boy Scout now"
To form more scout troops co trans
form these little unfortunates into
good citizens, is one of the reasons
why the Near East Relief, / Madison
avenue, New York city, is making its
appeal for funds.
