WHIT our Trees Require

I'm order to find a satisfactory
answer to this matter let us con
slider the average requirements Of
phoSphoric acid and potash are re
Uuiycd and are usually referred to as
the limiting elements Lime, mag
nesia and iron are also required but
since most soils contain sufficient
quantity of these elements they
win not be considered here 1t has
been determined by chemical analy-
sis that trees carrying a crop OF ap
pies weighing 24500 pounds require
'521 pounds Of nitrogen, 1873 pounds
Of phosphoric acid and 6400 pounds
Of potash This is for a tonnage of
approximately 500 packed boxes It
1 win be observed that phosphoric acid
is required i'm small amounts but
that nitrate is required in greater
amounts than nitrogen. 1t is appar-
ent, therefore. that the demands up
on our soils is considerable and that
these plant foods must be replaced

Next consider the sources from
which these plant foods come First
consider nitrogen There are two

to furnish nitrogen to plants. Bac-

what Of the Future 2

Now that our trees are in good
physical condition, the question be-
comes pertinent one does the
future hold as much promise to us
by continuing present soil practices,
including the use Of nitrate Of soda
or other similar fertilizer? Can we
expect TO hold our trees to the pres
ent level of high Yields or may We
expect still greater increases? Ger
tainly lower yields from trees yet
i'm their prime must not be permitted
if we can avoid it. May we keep
up soil fertility by the right hand
ling Of leguminous crops or should
we continue to supplement this
source of fertility by the use of
commercial fertilizers? incidentally.
we must keep in mind quality of
FRUIT and it's ability to hold up in
storage also the character Of tree
growth, especially its ability to with
stand disease and extremes of tenn
pera.ure.

use of quick acting fertilizer car
ryine nitrogen was recommended.
Nitrate of soda was advised ana
used on large scale The idea
was to bridge the gap in this man
ncr until the soils could be built up
by legumes The use of from three
TO five pounds nitrate of soda per
tree applied in early March proved
a highly profitable practice. For
the last five or six years growers
have been using this fertilizer as
occasion demanded and in the mean
time shade crops such as alfalfa or
clover have been employed until to-
day, there is a marked difference in
our tree growth and production as
compared with former years. Tree
growth as evidenced in terminal
growth aud leaf Development has
been especially vigorous and fruit
has increased in size materially. Re

show an increase in Yields for the
period 1916 to 1913 inclusive or near

on Sundays one listened for two
hours to some orthodox preacher
who gave out the dismal assurance
that all who did not belong to that
particular church were slated for
perdition, and that SO per cent of

sermons. The great privilege Of
life and the practical application
of the golden rule were lightly
touched upon, whilst hours were
spent arguing upon the interpreta-

scripture.

The mechanic who buys recklessy because he gets
more money instead Of paying Off the home mort

The first financial twist that proves the Santa Fe
banker was wise in his effort direct the people Of
New Mexico the road TO safety and that difficulty
might be near has come about.
The Federal Reserve bank system, which made 1t
easy for everybody to buy Liberty bonds by assist
ing the local banks TO carry the people who pur-
chased on the partial payment plan, now demands
from the banks eight per cent interest if the bonds
are accepted as security for loans. Formerly the
banks could lend money on the bonds at the low
rate they earned. and pass them along to the re-
serve bank, but now those who have not paid up,
or who tender the bonds as security, must pay eight
per cent. .. e.
j. This is hitting hard the business men and cor
poratons that bought vast quantities of bonds under
a belief that they could always easily get loans at
low rate of interest in emergencies with such bonds
as security. The deflation being forced by with
drawal from banks such privilege, by the federal
system is causing sacrifices to business borrowers
and depreciation of the Liberty paper.
... That accounts in a large part for the drop in
prices of Liberty bonds, Big buyers have to unload
to get money for business operations. Selling of
this sort small and they sell. Others,
spending lavishy cash in bonds bought to keep but
given up TO funds to purchase necessities, or

MORE ABOUT SUGAR.

If anyone construed yesterdays front page edi-
tora as an effort to shield the wholesale grocer IN
any misdoings he might be guilty Of, wrong inter
probation made.
What we did attempt TO do and what we still are
attempting TO do is TO prevent the turning OF the
attention and the wrath of the public from the
conspirators who have cornored our national mar
ets and affected our sugar supply during the COM
ing canning season which means such dire loss to
those depending upon canning. To center attention
upon wholesaler with small supply OF sugar on
hand merely serves to divert attention. ..tH
Before the war the market price prevailed and
wholesalers marked their goods up or down with the
market, taking the profit on the raise and the loss
on the fall Experience taught him what margin
of profit was necessary upon articles to leave him
fair profit in normal years Competition made It
impossible for this profit to be unreasonably large
With the passage of the Lever act ii was at
tempted to make this law of supply and demand
imperative and to arbitrarily fix the profit to be
made upon many articles This became necessary
through underproduction while so many producers
were in service. ....t r.
A continuance of that policy is of doubtful value
The cost of the living of family as far as whole
saers profit affects it, is determined by the average
profit he makes upon the necessities of life and not
upon his profit upon one item. Therefore, to serve
the people with any efficiency the investigation
should go the question of whether the wholesaler
is profiteer in his net profits for the year rms
sort of Investigation would prove wholesome and OF
some practical value, ...... ..,-
The good old American economic theories of sup
My and demand and of competition have been badly
handled these latter years. Man-made laws have
replaced natural laws. These new laws may be tenn
porariy necessary, but should be rid of them as
soon as possible
Laws against conspiracy to throttle the natural
laws by combinations in restraint of competition are
the ones needing Mr.. Palmers attention If he can
show such combination among wholesalers We
certainly want him to do it,
This is a presidential year. Efforts will not be

A BETTER BUY THAN EVER.

Bargains in Liberty bonds! Buy them! Keep
them--even If you must forego silk shirts safest
investment on EARTH is still true.
On the basis at which some issues are selling
excellent interest can be secured; far better than
safe savings bank ever paid. On maturity, maybe
before, every bond will bring its face value, yielding
good profit to persons who buy now.
Certain of these securities can be had around
eghty-fve cents the dollar, that the interest
rate returned win be in excess of what the bonds
call for-and fifteen cents profit each dollar
come to buyers ... .
Bankers believe that some of this paper will sell
for par in years. But if it does not there
will ever be ready sale at least around the present
prices. ., -,..
