POPULATION DRIFT
TOWARD THE CITIES

"Where are all the people coming
from?' is a question frequently
heard in our cities. Almost every
town in the country, from the largest
to the smallest is experiencing an
acute shortage of houses. In places
where three or four years ago
large percentage of the houses were
vacant, place to live can now hard
ly be had for love or money. Prelimi-
nary census figures are showing hea-
Wy gains in populations for many of
our cities during the past ten years.
Figures fo,, the rural districts have
not yet bee gives out, but we would
not be sura rised to see decreases in
many farming sections.
These .Acts to us indicate one
thing in pV rticular, and that is that
the farming business must be made
more attractive if people are to re-
main on the farms and production
maintained or increased. The farmer
goes to town mainly because wages
in town are better than he can make
farming, and so long as this is true
we may expect the drift from coun-
try to city to continue, with decreas-
ed farm production following in con-
sequence.
Prices of farm products are high,
of course, when compared with pre-
war prices; but when compared with
other commodity prices they are not
high. Railing at the farmer as a pro-
titeer will get the city consumer no
where. In fact, any effort that unduly
lowers the prices farmers receive for
products is bound in the end to put
prices higher than ever; because if
the business of farming is made un-
profitable enough farmers will quit
or so reduce production that the de-
mand will automatically force prices
up.
The country and the world need
more food and clothing, but to get
them fair price to the farmcr-a
price that will insure him wage
in line with what urban workers re-
| ceive--will be neccssary-The Pro
| gressvc Farmer.

plies are short and high-priccd. Cot
tonseed meal, tankage and like ma
terials which have in past been large
ly used TO supply nitrogen are such
valuable feeding stuffs that their
prices have become almost prohibitivc
of their use as fertilizer. Sulphate Of
ammonia, Il by-product of coke ovens,
Is less abundant because of coal
strikes and lack of transportation.
Nitrate of soda has not been brought
from South America in sufficient
quantities because of 1ack of ship
ping facilities. The supplies of acid
phosphate have been lessened also by
strikes, lack of transportation and in
ability to procure necessary materi-
ais for It's manufacture. And potash
has neither been produced in this
country nor Thought from France and
Germany to meet demands. In short,
the demand is greater than usual,
the supplies available being less than
tne demands and the railroads have
not been able to move the products
rapidly enough to meet the require
ments of the trade.
The results are that many believe
that it will not be possible for the far
mers of the South to obtain their
fertilizers in time to put out the full
amounts which they want to use at
the time of or before planting the
crops.
AS evidence accumulates, it tends
to show that the best time to apply
fertilizers is at the time of or be-
fore planting the crops. That is,

PRINT PAPER FROM ALASKA

Sometime ago the Advertiser sta
ted that Alaska would prove to be
something more than an ice house for
Uncle Sam. There have been a num-
Der of developments. in that country
that prove our contention true.
Here is tie latest. Mr.. Meredith,
our new Secretary of Agriculture
says:
ALASKA is destined to become a
second Norway, with her enormous
forests of rapidly growing species
suitable for pulp, her water power
and her tide water shipment of manu-
factured products, Alaska will un-
doubtcdly become one of the princi-
pal paper sources of the United
States. A substantial development of
the paper industry in this wonderful
region, combined with the intelli-
gent reforestation of pulp lands in
the older regions, should settle for
ever the question of paper shortage
in the United States"

tiizer applied to a crop should be
divided into two or more applications.
But it is also pretty well established
or generally believed that, say, 500
pounds of given fertilizer per acre
will give little larger yield if two
applications are made than if it is all
put on at one time. But if there is an
increase in the yield from two appli-
cations this increase is probably not
generally large enough to pay for
making two applications or to pay for
the expense of making the extra ap-
plication.
But if the farmer finds it impos-
sible to get all the fertilizers he
thinks he ought to use, in time to put
it all out at planting time, he should
not fail to put out the balance as a
second application. If he is right in
believing, for instance, that he should
apply 500 pounds Of certain grade
of fertilizer per acre and can only
get enough by planting time to make
an application of 300 pounds per
acre, there is no good reason why he
should not make a second applica-
ton of 200 pounds during the early
part of the growing season or during
May and June. In fact, unless he is
mistaken in his belief that it will pay
him to use 500 pounds Of fertilizer
per acre, there is every reason why
he should make second application,
in case ne cannot get sufficient ferti-
lizer to make the full application
intended at planting time-The
Prorrcs i've Farmer.

A SECOND APPLICATION
OF FERTILIZER

All fertilizer manufacturers and
dealers report that the movement Of
fertilizers and fertilizer materials
is several weeks behind the usual
schedule. Not only have strikes and
other causes delayed the getting of
raw materials by manufacturers and
mixers, but the railroads have not
moved shipments with the necessary
promptncss asd rapidity. The facto-
ricS are three to five weeks behind
with their orders, due to car short
age.
MorcOvrr, there are strong indi-
cations that there is greater desire
on the part of farmers to use ferti-
lizcrs this year thas ever before. In
fact, it is estimated that some of the
Southeastern states that have used
large quantities Of fertilizers in the
past will use 20 to 25 per cent. more
this year than usual if they can get
them.
The supplies Of materials carrying
the Plant foods, nitrogen, phosphor-
Gus and potassium are more or less
short of the demand. Nitrogen sup

THE coming generation will see

"Thc farmer holds to the personal

FUN IN CONGRESS

When bill was introduced in
Congress by Mr.. Good, of Iowa, to
appropriate $240,00O to add rooms
and new roof to building for the
Treasury Department Congressman
Blanton, Of Texas, wanted to know
why the roof could not be patched,
adding that he had to patch his pants,
and by patching the roof it could be
made to last another year.
Mr.. Good replied that they had
patched the roof before Mr.. Blan-
ton had patched his pants, and now
they needed new roof.
Perhaps Mr.. Blanton decided he
needed q new pair of pants as he
