WILSON MEN ARRAYED
 TO OPPOSE MIR. BRYAN
try tinted pressl

San Francisco, June 26.-As the zero hour approaches for the Demo- cratic national convention to begin its Iabors, signs multiply that admins tration leaders are going to have a real fight to retain control of the party.
 As the head of the opposition, Will liam J. Bryan is the center of atten- tion. So far, MT. Bryan may con duct his operations ostensibly to have inserted in the platform a plank in support of proh. bition and pledging the party to it's enforcement He does not profess much concern in regard to the league of nations, which President Wilson and the administration forces consider so vital
 In political circles, it is surmised that MT. Bryan is carefully concealing his hand, and will later open a direct attack on the league of nations as framed by President Wilson. This position, it is asserted, was strength ened with his announcement to the press that the league and all other issues are minor as compared with the question of prohibition and the necessity of committing the Demo- cratic party definitely to it's enforce ment.
 As matters stand, Mr Bryan is committed only to prohibition as one of the blanks which he wishes placed in tho ,Ia+fOrr, CC,,,o,ol ,,,;+l, +L;, the adm nistration is pledged to have ] the convention approve the league of nations, first, and then not to make mention of prohibition when the plat form is drafted
 With Mr. Bryan in the c.ty and known to be at work, administration leaders have become exceedingly dis erect and wary. They await the first ind cation that MT Bryan has assailed the Virginia platform, which is the basis of the one which the Wilson spokcsmen will present to the conven- ton for approval, before the full force of the administration is trained on the "Commoucr
 In charge of the Wilson element of the convention, which is admittedly the strongest, are now five members of his official family. as well as Ma ,ional Chairman Homer Cummings and Senator Glass. They have been joined by Attorney General Palmer, | Postmaster General Burleson, Secre- tary of the Navy Daniels, Secretary | tary of State Colby. all pledged to carry out the Wilsonian ideas of the party platform.

SAYS PALMER SCHEMES
 TO FORGE OUT M'ADOO
(By United rress)

San Francisco, June 26.-Neteran politicians today professed to see in dications of a coalition between At torney General Palmer and Gov. James NJ. Cox to prevent the nomina- tion of William c. McAdoo, generally regarded as the most formidable can didate for the nomination. Ennis saries of the Palmer delegations are said to have called at the headquarters of Governor Cox, and asked how the Ohio candidate would view an alli- ance framed for this purpose.
 According to reports, the Palmer spokesman pointed out that the dele gations supporting MT. McAdoo, being the strongest numerically, can not make protective deals and hence would be unable to stand against a united front composed of both Cox and Palmer forces. In reply, the Cox forces are said to have told the Palm CT emissaries that they regard the at torney general highly, but believe they can nominate Governor Cox without the aid of the Palmer delegates. So fas as they know it is reported their reply said, the attorney general is a presidential possibility and nothing more, The matter is understood to stand where the reply of the Cox head quarters left it.

KENTUCKY DERBY WITH RICH STAKE, DRAWS b|G FIELD
TRepubiican A. p. Leased WireI

LOUISVILLE, Ky. May Twenty two threeyear- thOrOughbreds, 20 colts and two fillieS, considered the best on the American turf, today were declared fit for the Kentucky Derby. Those whose owners accept the issue will attempt to negotiate a mile and a quarter at Churchill Downs tomorrow afternoon for stake carrying S30,o0O in added money, the richest 1920 turf prize in the country.
 Expectations today were for a rec ord breaking attendance, predictions reaching as high as 6o,000 spectators Already hotels were reported taxed 10 capacity, with inability to heed re- quests for even cots in s;le corridors. Additional throngs are reported on the way in special trains.
 At the race track the number of the greatly enlarged grand stand has been increased to 105. and will provide what is believed to be ample facilities for the speculative public, which, with approximately half that number, wagered s872.000 on the 1919 Derby.
 Rain May Interfere
 The race itself a large proportion of turf men continue to assert, will be the most open in its history. Fore casts for showers tomorrow and the consequent uncertainty of track con- ditions, added to their perplexity in selecting favorites.
 Among the 22 entries, however. Wildair, Damask and Upset, the liar ry Payne Whitney entry, had a very large following and apparently ruled favorites on the day before the race. Donacconna and On Watch. the George w. Loft pair, were considered next in popular esteem. Paul Jones. Peace Pennant and Sandy Beal also had a considerable following. while David Harum, Cleopatra, Prince Pat, Ster- ling, Bersagliere, Golden Broom, By Golly, Derron. Ethel Gray. Patches. Westwood, Simpleton and Kinnoul were not unconsidered. Unofficial odds ranged from five to one on the leaders to fifty to one on some of the others.
 Derron. according to the entries pub lished today, is given the rail- with Peace Pennant on the outside.

NOTED AUTHOR TELLS OF DEED OF HERO|SM
 PERFORMED BY DOCS

Heroic deeds by dogs, proof of the
 possession by mans faithful friend of an intelligence not conceived of by mankind, made up the subject last night of a lecture illustrated by slides given in the Pro- Cathedral by George Wharton James, author of many books who is visiting this city. MT. James is a guest of Governor Thomas E. Campbell. Horses and dogs in the great war, and what they did for hu manity, was told by the lecturer in d way that convinced his audience. the dog has higher intelligence than commonly credited.
 MT. James told how the dogs taken from America, many of which came froms Alaska, were trained in concen- tration and to mind their own busi- ness, also to go through the barbed wire entanglements at night with mes SageS and to carry water and aid to the wounded under fire.
 He told of one dog whose master, a surgeon, while attending to wounded American. was shot down by a Ger man. While lying wounded in the breast, another German sought to give him his death blow with his bayonet. when the dog flew at the Germans throat, killing him | iii time to save his wounded masters life. An Ameri- can soldier sought to rescue the dog, the surgeon was dead, but the dog snarled at the soldier and would not be moved. Then the surgeon was seen to be alive and was rescued Scores of such stories were related by the lecturer to his audience. He also told of the 100000 horses used by the United States and allies. few of which were used as cavalry. but in humane work.
 Mr. James said he was seeking to organize a state and local humane society, in order to bring back kindness into the world. to coun- teract the hatred brought hv the war and to teach boys and girls as we'll as grown-ups to be kind. not only to dumb animals, but to each other. to be tolerant. to try to eradicate intoIer- ance from the world today.
 He announced that he would speak next Sunday morning in the Pro- Cathedral on living the radiant life and Sunday evening before the Sunday Evening Club he will speak on the power of love over wild animals.

FERTILIZER NEEDS;
A CLOSE STUDY OF
THESE FOR 11.lN. SOIL

If you have faith in the soil on your
farm and wish to develop it to the
greatest extent possible the first job is
TO improve the soil. To improve 1t a
study must be made of ii in order to
supply il with its own special needs in
the cheapest way. 1t Is big study
which begins with the fertilizer ques-
ton. Some of us are buying what we
do not need, others are not buying
what they do need, and most of us are
not buying in the cheapest form.
Soils need phosphate, lime, clovers,
beans and peas, and manure. We
must build on this foundation. Phos-
plate is the first of these to get; buy
it in the form of 10 per cent acid phos-
phate which contains in every 100
pounds Of fertilizer 16 pounds of avail
able phoSphoric acid. Use 200 to 300
pounds per acre on general crops such
as corn, sorghum, wheat, peas, cloversy
ETC. use more on special crops like
potatoes, tomatoes, etc.
Don't let the fertilizer men confuse
you; they want to sell fertilizers; you
want to buy available plant food, Here
is the way to do 1t wisely: Keep your
ears closed and your eyes open with
pencil in your hand and your mind on
your soil needs. Don't lose your head,
you may lose your money with it.
The law requires that the available
plant food be clearly marked on the
tag. Use that as basis for buying
and buy that form which gives you
pound of available plant food at the
cheapest price per pound. 1t is only
the available part that crops can use
because 1t is only that part which win
dissolve in soil water Do you buy
ham for the meat or the bone? You
can't eat bone, neither can crops eat
sand and other things that fertilizers
contain. Sand does not hurt fertilizer,
but you don't want to pay $1,000 to
$4,000 per ton for common sand.
Don't buy complete fertilizers
Buy acid phosphate for its phosphoric
acid, buy lime to make clover; sow
clover to make rich manure and to getl
nitrogen; If you cannot get lime this
year sow phosphate under beans and
peas and feed the hay to get manure;
save the manure for the nitrogen and
potash In 1t. Save the wood ashes,
too.
Now until you get started on this.
plan it will pay to buy 100 pounds Of
nitrate of soda and so pounds of mu-
rate of potash for every acre Of pota-
toes or tomatoes that you grow Mix
the potash with your phosphate, apply
the nitrate along the row after the
plants are started.
