FERTILIZERS FOR WHEAT

With 16 per cent acid phosphate
costing more than $50, it becomes
a question in the minds of some
farmers as to whether or not it will
pay to use this high priced phos-
phate on wheat. Prof. George Rob
erts, head Of the Agronomy Depart
ment, of the College of Agriculture,
gives the following results taken
from the experimental fields. These
records cover a period OF from to
6 years and were made on practical
" all types of soils outside of the
Central Bluegrass. On untreated
land that produced 8 bushels of
wheat per acre he found that when
200 pounds of 16 per cent acid
phosphate was applied it gave an
increase of 41-2 bushels of wheat
and where the ground was lined and
fortified with 200 pounds of 16 per
cent acid phosphate gave an in
crease of bushels. His expert
ments show that on unlimed soil raw
ground rock phosphate has given as
good or better results on the average
than an equal investment in acid
phosphate. This raw ground rock
phosphate cannot be used in small
quantities drilled at wheat sowing
time; but it should be applied at the
rate of 1000 to 1000 pounds broad
east and well mixed with the soil.
When the price of acid phosphate
becomes more than twice as much
per ton as rock phosphate he be-
lieves the farmer may well consider
the use Of the latter, especially on
unlimed soil.
His experiments show that in us
ing acid phosphate, limestone in
creases its effectiveness and in most
sections of the state other than In
the Central Bluegrass region the eff
feet of lime on the clover following
the wheat will pay for an apphca-
ton of the lime. He believes that
$50 pounds of 10 per cent acld
phosphate or its equivalent in basic
Stag or steam bone meal, will be suf-
icient for wheat and that it will ma
terially aid in giving a stand of
grass and clover in the wheat. Lime
should be applied at the rate of
about two tons per acre; but his re-

LAWYERS WIN BIG FEE

Robert G. Gordon, Hite Huffaker
and James Garnett, special attor-
neys in the Bingham tax case, were
awarded verdict for $125,000, as
fee for their services by jury OF
six men in the jefferson county
court, at Louisville, Friday This is
the largest verdict for attorneys
fees in any one case ever awarded
in the state of Kentucky. The YER
diet was for the full amount asked
by the plaintiffs in their petition
which was filed about two months
ago. The sum is subject to a ced-
it of $4,000, which has already
been paid them.

suits show that when even as little
as 1000 pounds are applied it is
quite effective.
These results would show that
even with the high price of phos-
pilates, wheat growers in other than
the Central Bluegrass region Of
Kentucky cannot afford to leave off
their use on wheat. In the Central
Bluegrass region nitrate of soda or
sulphate of ammonia used as top
dressing in the spring should give
an increased yield, whereas, in this
region very little increase should be
expected from the use Of phos-
pilates.

FAULTS OF PRICE FIXING

Getting down to fundamentals, the
vital defect in a government price reg
ulation scheme is that it attempts to
limit the profits a dealer may make
without guaranteeing him against
losses" is asserted in a statement is
sued by the Republican Publicity AS
sociation, through its president, Hon.
Jonathan Bourne, Jr. There can be
no sound price regulation that at
tempts to do one and not the other.
Some temporary benefits may be real
lied, but in the long run one-sided
price regulation will result in disas-
ter.
This was demonstrated centuries
ago when Roman emperor, possess
ed of almost despotic power, decreed
a schedule of prices for commodities
and services, with extreme penalties
for violation. The result was cessa-
tion of production and unprecedented
scarcity, with consequent higher
prices than before. If men were poss-
essed of omnipotent wisdom a practi-
cal system of price fixing might be
possible but so long as individuals
are limited in both wisdom and good
ness, failure will attend the attempt

he law of supply and demand.

comfortable schools, $50 days atten-
dance and one hour at lunch. He also
urged better school buildings, and adj
vancement of education along all
lines.
Miss Clara Southwick, executive sec
retary of the Consumers League,
spoke of the wages for women, some
being known as high as $25 per week
grading down to So per week. When
the mother is engaged in an indus
try. some provision must be made for
the children. She declared that no
mother is able to take care of her
children on the amount received from
the Mothers Pension fund
Wiley Swift, special agent on laws
and administration for the National
Child Labor Committee, spoke on
Laws and the Child" He said the
most hopeful thing for the country
was the existence of such bodies as
the Child Welfare Association to agi-
tate and urge better laws and better
conditions for the children. He stated
that in the past five years more inter-
est than ever before had been taken
in the growing child which will nat
urally produce better men and bet
ter women.

ment of sugar dealers, who, under the
price control system, were limited to
an advance of one cent pound on
sugar sold at wholesale. That was ap-
parently a sufficient advance to enable
the wholesaler to cover expenses and
make a reasonable profit. 1t is cur
rently reported and is possibly true
that some dealers made an unlawful
profit by putting the sugar through
one or more fictitious transfers, add
ing a cent a pound each time
But it appears that there were
large numbers of wholesalers who
tried to comply with the law and who
made contracts for sugar to meet the
future demands of their regular Gus
toners. They bought on an ascending
market, and were limited to a profit
of one cent per pound. Then came the
slump Wholesalers who had tried to I
protect their customers found them
selves with sugar which would not /
sell even at the original purchase /
price. On the contrary, the sugar /
found no buyers at a decline of many 4
cents per pound The wholesalers
turned to government regulations in
vain. In conjunction with the provis-
ions which prevented them from MAX
ing unreasonable profits, they could
find no provision to guard them
against unreasonable losses. To apply I
a common expression, they were
caught between the devil of a declin-
ing market and the deep sea of Gov
control.
"The predicament of the sugar
is a subject that probab- :
" will not occasion worry to many .

for many years the government has
