THURSDAY, MARCH fl, 1880

CRAWFORDSNILE, Ind, March 10.-General Lew Wallace, governor of New Mexico is expected here tomor- row. This will be his first visit since his appointment.
 Washington. March 1O.-One of the most important decisions ever rendered by the United States supreme court was put on record on Monday The court affirmS the power of congress to appoint supervisors of state elections for the prevention of fraud where representatives in congress are to be chosen. It declares that the national government has the right to use force to compel obedience to the laws. (ThiS legislation was the first of many acts, known as force bills" for the control of elections in the southern states to prevent the exclusion of negro voters from the polls. Each measure was q little more rigid than it's predecessor. The last known as The Force BilI' was introduced in 1890 by MT. Lodge then q representative from Massa : chusetts. It passed the house but failed in the senate. It was an un- popular measure and is thought to have contributed in some measure to the defeat of President Harrison two years later.)

Effect of Lime In Regulating
 Soil Condition

The treatment of soil with lime Is regarded by students of soil condi tions and crop economy as being in the same grade of importance as fer .tilizers and moisture. Its first func- ton is the regulation of the balance in the soil between acid and alkaline con dltions. It sweetens the soil.
 The phosphorus of the soil is also held in usable forms by lime Fur ther, it acts as a plant food. apparently economizing the potash needs of the plant, at the same time helping to stop the growth of some disease organisms.
 Carbonate and Caustic
 Lining material suitable for appli- cation on soil falls into two general classes-the carbonate form, and the burnt form or causJic lime Carbon ate is the natural form in which free lime occurs in the soil, and should be very finely pulverized to be effective within a reasonable period If left in even slightly coarse form the lime par ticleS may remain intact III an acid soil for many years.
 Burnt lime is derived from limestone by burning it into either lump or hE- drated lime. This is estimated as be- ing from 30 per cent to 50 per cent stronger than carbonate lime in es- sential material and is concentrated
 Small Applications
 Usually the best method of apply ing a lining material is to put it in the soil after blowing. but before cul- tivating in order that il may be thoroughly mixed with the soil Small applications made at frequent inter vals are generally better than large applications less frequently. The amount applied must be regulated ac- cording to the acidity of a soil, and the sensitiveness of a particular crop

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

There being enough leather to supply the de- rnand for shoes natural instinct of humanity is to wear fewer leather shoes to leather in all sorts ways, that such stock there IS may be used necessary channels of trade.
 Sure that's the way it works out-not!
 There being not enough leather for shoes every body immediately demands more leather shoes than ever: with high leather tops; leather jackets, leather coats and the first time in there leather hats.
 Silver almost disappeared, it has been ab- sorbed by Orient India to trade balances: so immediately silver plate becomes the height of fashion though for years it has been considered plebian and old fashioned.

Especial to The Republican,


 SUPERIOR, May 1.-Playing error less ball behind the sterling pitching of Jones, the Magma baseball team got away to a good start in it's opening game against the University of Ari- zona tossers here today, winning a spectacular battle, f to l.
 The game was one of the best ever played here. the university lads making but one tumble. while the home team handled the ball clean throughout.
 Jones pitching was easily the out standing feature of the game, but two hits being garnered off his delivery. After the first inning, he was never in danger of being scored upon.
 The visitors took the lead in the first inning when they scored their only run of the game. Magma knotted the count in the third with some sound biffs and put 1t on ice in the fourth with a couple. They added a fourth in the sixth for good measure.
 The Magma squad has an open date May 9 and is anxious to meet one of the strong Phoenix teams. the White Sox, Tigers or Oilers, preferred. They will agree to play the game either in Phoenix or Superior but prefer to come to this city for the first meeting
