FARMERS SHOULD STUDY PLANT
REQUIREMENTS

the matter of purchase OF fertilizers,
he will hesitate before buying until
he has satisfied himself that he is
buying the right kind
The use of fertilizers is commend
able under certain conditions and as
a part Of certain practices. 1t 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 all
means understand tine needs Of soil
he is working with. If he does not,
he is not in position to use fertilizers
intelligently. Net only do the soils
vary in their supply OF plant food but
they also vary in their needs CORES
pondingly. A farmer may not be able
to make an analysis, but he can OBJ
serve the character Of the growth OF
plants in the sell and derive there
from some idea as to the needs.
+, First-rapid growth, with good
color, plenty Of leaf, Indicates a
good supply of element nitrogen, OF
that the soil contains what the farmer
often refers to as ammonia"
/ Second-good proportion of fruit
such as heads Of wheat, or oats will
well-filled grains, or well-filled, larg'
ears of corn, indicate good suppl!
Of the element prcsphorous.
Third-bad color, fruit dropping
easily, stalk loding or falling, ind:
Gates lack of potash. Good upstandia;
: stiff straw indicates enough potash.
These three elements constitute tn
limiting ones, the ones which the sol
usually lack, one or two or all o
them. They are the ones which ar
contained in commercial Eertlizer
which are, as commonly called "con
plete."
. Now let the farmer notice ho'

Franchise, and number Of prominent
persons in the theatrical world. Every
body inquired for Premier Clemenceau.
He had engaged table at the Hotel
Reservoir, but telephoncd last night
canccling his reservation.
Paris, Jan. 17.--(By A. PA
number of the senators and deputies
are circulating among the members of
Parliament a resolution to confer upon
Premier Clemenceau the title of ''Sa-
vior of the Country" It is proposed to
pass an enabling act to make this title
official.
There is an agreement in parlia-
mentary circles to give Premier Clemen-
ceau tangible token of national grat-
itude. Some members speak of an en-
Cowment, while others would pass Il
bill establishing a permanent seat in
the Senate for him, according to the
journal.
Other newspapers say he has asserted
to his friends that he has definitely re-
nounced politics and journalism and
that he intends to write memoirs rel
ative to the war.
NJ. Clemenceau last evening made the
following statement to the Havas
agency:
II did not ask anything. I did not
want to be n candidate. | was told it
was my duty, that the situation was
difficult, that the country expected new
services from me. I believed it, but

widely dispersed and in need Of re
pairs before they could be sent to the
tfitical area. Dcstroycrs arriving in
the war zone had been cruising cx-
tensively off our seaboard and in the
caribbean. and when war was de-
clared were rushed through a brief
aud inadequate preparation for dis
tant service.
Fifth. During the most critical
months Of the euemy's submarine
campaign against the allied lines of
communication the department violat-
cd the fundamental strategical princi-
pie of concentration of maximum
force in the critical area of the con-
fict.
Sixth. The departments represent
ative with the allied admiralty was
not supported during the most critical
months of the war. either by the ade-
Quatc personnel or by the adequate
forces that could have been supplied
Violated Wars Rules
Seventh. The departments COM
mander in the critical area of hoStiIi-
ties was never allowed to select his
principal suhordinates, and was not
even consulted as to their assignment.
A fundamental principle of the art
of command is herein involved.
Eighth. The Navy Department
made and acted upon decisions con-
cerning operations that were being
conducted 5000 miles away. when
conditions were such that full infor-
nation could not have been in its
possession, thus violating an essen
tial preccpt of warfare that some
decisions necessarily depend upon
complete information.
Ninth. Instead of relying upon the
Judgment of those who had had
actual war experience in this peculiar
warfare, the Navy Department,
though lacking not only this expert
ence. but also lacking adequate in
formation concerning it. insisted
upon q number of plans that could
not be carried out.
Tenth. Many of the department 5
actions so strongly implied a con
victiou that it was the most com
petent to make decisions concerning
operations in the war zone, that the
result was an impression that II
lacked confidence in the Judgment of
its representative on the council OF
the Allies and its responsible com
mauder in the field" 1t is fun
damental principle that every action
on the part Of superior authorities
should indicate confidence in subordi
mates. If such confidence is lacking
it should Immediately be restored by
ruthlessly changing the subordinate.
Eleventh. ITO interfere with the
commander in the field or atioat i:

disastrous" "The Influance Of Sea
Power Upon History. ."--Mahan. The
Navy Department did not resist this
temptation, and its frequent viola
tion of this principle was the most
dangerous error committed during the
naval war.
Characterizing the alleged attitude of
the department ''as u terrible thing.
senator Mccormick, Republican, llli-
nois, said:
81 believe we will have to 20 to the
nava affairs committee or the Senate
for further instructions and authority
to investigate this entire matter of the
attitude of the Navy Department toward
Admiral Sims'S mission"
When Admiral Sims finished reading
the letter Chairman Hale announced
that the full committee would be asked
either to empower the present sub
committee to investigate Admiral
Sims's charges of lack of co operation
or to appoint a separate subcommittee
to conduct the inquiry.
Favored Sea Service Men
Sims told the Senate committee that
he had recommended for decorations five
times as many officers who served at
sea during the war as he had officers
who served on shore. He made this ex =
planation, he said. to correct an i'm
preston, apparently widely held, that
he favored the decoration of officers de =
tailed TO shore duty more generally than
those who served ut sea.
The admiral also read letter he had
written to Commander ID. W. Bagley,
expressing great regret that Secretary
Daniels should "have been so badly ad :
vised in this mutter Of awarding u Dis
tinguished Service Medal to Com
mander Bagley.
Admits Being of Minority
German submarines did not generally
attack combatant vessels, the adm
said. adding that Commander Bagley' S
destroyer, the Jacob Jones, was sunk
by charce shot.
Referring to the statement that no
enlisted men were recommended by him
for medals, Admiral Sims read cable
grams sent to Admiral Knapp in Lon
don last July urging that the compila
tion of lists of men to be rewarded be
expedited.
Discussing submarine warfare in gen
cral. Admiral Sims said if the United
States had had 500 destroyers when il
entered the war it never would have
| had to fear the submarine campaign.
Turning the inquiry back to the ques.
| ton OF naval awards, Senator Pittman
! Democrat. Nevada. declared that Ad
miral Sims represented a minority o.
/ the officers of the navy and that thu
members of the Knight board repre-
serted the majority. Admiral Sims sal
that while he was in the minority, r.
officers on the Knight board were no
in a position to judge fairly Of the rcla
tive merits of the officers recommends
for distinction.
Replying to statements by Admira
Sims that here was not a naval office
in his force who was not criticizing ant
ridiculing awards of medals to com
manding officers who lost ships. Sen
ator Pittman read letter from Ad
miral Gleaves, highly complimentinj
Captain Graham. of the transport Fin
land, which was rorpedocd but saved
and recommending him for Distin
guished Service Medal. Senator Pitt
man said this letter and others proved
that some naval officers did not agre'
with Admiral Sins.

an American ballot box. dropped his
ballot into the wooden slot and then
handed his ball to another usher. who
kept tally of the members voting.
Cheers Greet CaStlenau
The only printed ballot distributed
bore Deschanel's name. As General

dous cheering.
When NJ. Deschanel's name was
