POUNDS OF PLANT FOOD
NOT SACKS OF FERTILIZER.

The one thing more to be desired
than all others in the farmers use
of commercial fertilizers is that he
learns to think of fertilizer applica-
tons in terms of pounds of plant food
rather than of sacks of "guano" or
the analysis of fertilizers. At present,
500 pounds or 900 pounds of fertili-
zer per acre means very little to the
average man, even though he knows
the analysis to be 1882, or any other
proportions of plant foods.
But if he thought of an application
Of Is pounds of nitrogen, 40 pounds
of phosphoric acid and 10 pounds of
potash, which are the amounts of
plant foods in 500 pounds of 1882
fertilizer, he would thoroughly un-
derstand the amount Of actual fertili-
gers that he is using. In time, manu-
facturers, merchants and statesmen
viii deal in pounds of nitrogen, phos-
phorus and potassium, and quote
prices accordingly, instead of making
quotations on "units, or in any other
manner not generally understood by
the farmer. Already there has been
a move toward quoting prices on the
basis of nitrogen instead of ammonia,
and this. but the beginning of a pro-
gressive elimination of incorrect, mis-
leading or little understood terms in
the fertilizer trade.
Good business must force the MAX
ing of the intelligent purchase of fer
tiiizers as simple as possible, and the
essential change in present methods
which would do most to simplify fer
tiliz problems for the farmer would
be the practice of thinking and speak
ing of fertilizing in terms of plant
foods-so many pounds of nitrogen,
phosphoric acid and potash.
The intelligent farmer will come to
think of his application of CONNER
cial fertilizer to given soil or crop in
SO many pounds of nitrogen, phos-
phoric acid and potash per acre, if he
desires to use all three, or as so many
pounds of nitrogen and phosphoric
acid per acre if he only requires these
two plant foods. When he has de-
termined how many pounds of plant
foods he wishes to apply per acre, he
can easily obtain the mixed fertilizer
required, or the materials to supply
his needs.
If he wishes to apply 80 pounds of
nitrogen, for instance, he will quickly
learn that this amount of nitrogen
will be supplied in 1000 pounds of a
ready-mixed fertilizer containing 8
per cent nitrogen, or by 200 pounds
of nitrate of soda, or 500 pounds of
cotton seed meal, or $50 pounds of
sulphate of ammonia.-The Progress
sive Farmer.

The Republican national committee
In session in Washington, accepted the
resignation of Chairman viii Hays
and elected John T. Adams of Du-
buuue, Ia, to succeed him. Mr.. Adams
has been vice chairman, and that po-
sition was given to Ralph b. Williams
Of Portland, Ore. A new basis of rep
resentation at national conventions
was adopted by which the Southern
states will lose % delegates from the
number accredited to the Chicago con-
vention of last June. The old system
allowed for one delegate from each
congressional district, but under the
new plan a district must have cast =
500 Republican votes in the last pre-
ceding election before it may send a
delegate to the convention. To have
two district delegates there must have
been cast 10000 Republican votes, or
Republican representative must
have been elected to congress, Under
the former plan 1900 votes gave two
delegates.

pensation valid titles which have
been obtained by American citizens
under Mexican laws. A confscation
policy strikes not only at the interests
Of particular individuals but at the
foundations of international inter-
course, for it is only on the basis OF
the security Of property validity pos
sessed under the laws existing at the
time of it's acquisition that CONNER
cial transactions between the peoples
Of two countries and the conduct OF
activities In helpful cooperation are
possible.
This question is vital because OF
the provisions inserted in the Next
can constitution promulgated in 1911.
If these provisions are to be put into
effect retroactively, the properties OF
American citizens will be confiscated
on a great scale. This would constl-
tute an international wrong OF the
gravest character, and this govern
ment could not submit to its accom-
plishment."

The Republican majority III the
house took steps to discard the Boran
amendment to the naval bill, and TO-
substitute the idea of the Porter joint
resolution. which concurs in the eX-
pressed purpose of President Harding
to call disarmament conference but
refuses to tie his hands with instruc-
tons or requests, as does the Borah
plan. The Porter idea, it is said, IS
the more pleasing to the President
but he will not directly intervene IN
the controversy. The house Demo-
Gratis are almost solidly in favor OF

The senate performed q peculiar
flop last week in dealing with the

strength of 10000 during the next
year, with reduction to l69,OOO by
February Is, 1922. Next day the SEN
ate reversed itself, deciding, 36 to ~,
to reduce the army to 10000, which
would necessitate the discharglng OF

ORLEANS COTTON
UNDER PRESSURE
Reports from Germany Cause Selling
Activity.

NEW ORLEANS. Jan. 31-Sening
pressure was felt by the cotton market
during the greater part of the session
today. following rumors that the Ger
man government would rejsct the rep
aration proposals framed at Paris.
Heaviest selling came late in the day
on reports that the Reichstag had TAX
en- in a very unfavorable manner the
proposals and there were even rumors
that they had been instantly rejected.
At this stage prices were 50 to 60 points
under the close of last week with March
down to 1855. Closing prices showed net
losses on the day of As TO SO points
Momentarily, on the opening, there
was rise on the more active months
Of three TO II points when March touch-
ed 1,428 offerings increased and from
then on the market got next TO sup
port. The initial rise reflected the
favorable opinion reported in England
and France of the terms offered Ger
many and which caused short covering
in the Liverpool market before the.
American markets opened. The better
English prices than due helped to give
the market here a very steady tone on
the first call. Total foreign exports
from all ports were heavy, 1920 bales
against $500 this day last var. but
while these end OF January clearances
were larger than expected, bulhsh trad
ers found themselves unable to put
them t. any use.
