CAMBRIDGE HOLDS
 ITS ANNIVERSARY
Vice President Coolidge is Principal
 Speaker at Exercises Held Today.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct 12.-Vice- President Calvin Coolidge praised the spirit of loyalty to truth in an address here today in connection with the eel ebration of the 18th anniversary of the incorporation of Cam bridge as d city. He dwelt upon important part which the community had played in New England -hiatarz-frorn the earl lest colonial days and upon it's eeuca : tional and literary traditions. In con- cIusion he said:
 Cambridge has become more than a city. As the college became a uni- versity, the town has become a me- tropolis. The pursuit of learning pre- dominates but the multitude of worthy actions which support modern civilization are represented here. The ancient spirit lives. That same loyalty to truth which sent the Puritan inao the wilderness, supported the revolution and destroyed slavery cmptied alike her houses of industry and the halls of learning in the last great conflict between freedom and despotism.
 They followed the truth. In what other words could we better tell the story of Columbus and his mariners what more accurately describes the Purians, what prouder designation could be borne by Americans? True dLscoverers have been coming all the tune since 1492, true Puritans all the time since 1880. -8
 'Cambridge is not merely a. place and a name, it is an ideal. The peo pie within her borders have followed the truth. That is science. That ii art. That is learning. That alone i civilization"

We Clip the following wheeze

not original with that paper.
We print it for two reasons:
1) We have not printed it be-
fore, in spite of it's familiarity.
And (2) it ought to keep this
paper busy for couple of days
Voice lie wheeze:
A woman who was too
economical to subscribe for her
home paper sent her little son to
borrow the copy taken by their
neighbor. In his haste the boy
ran over a four dollar stand of
bees and in ten minutes looked
like a warty Summer squash.
His cries reached his father, who
ran to his assistance, and failing
to notice barbed wire fence
ran into it, breaking it down,
cutting a handful of flesh from
his anatomy and running a five
dollar pair Of pants. The old
COW took advantage of the gap in
the fence and got into the corn
field and killed herself eating
corn. Hearing the racket, the
mother ran, upset four gallon
churn of rich cream into a bas-
ket of kittens, drowning the
whole litter. In her hurry she
dropped and broke, past all hope
of mending, a twenty five dollar
set of false teeth. The baby,
left alone, crawled through the
spilled cream and into the parlor,
running twenty dollar carpet.
During the excitement the oldest
daughter ran away with the hired
man, the dog broke up eleven
setting hens, and the calves got
out and chewed the tails off of
four fine shirts. All to save

SIDE APPLICATION
OF FERTILIZERS
FERTILIZERS ARE CHEAP
AGAIN.
Practice of Side Application Win
Be Extensively Followed
This Year.

Atlanta. Ga, April receiv.
ed from fertilizer companies indicate
that the Southern farmer fell a good
deal short Of using as much fertilizers
at planting time this year az usual. Sew.
esal reasons are assigned. One is that
the farmers waited for the price Of
fertilizers to fall with the expectation
of using them In greater quantities
than the usual amount as side applica-
tions to the growing crops.
1t seems that the practice of side ap-
plication of fertilizers is quite common
ly followed by successful Southern
farmers. In fact, the Williamson meth
cd of growing corn that is popular in
the coastal plains region of the South,
provides that no fertilizer be applied
except as side applications to the corn
crop.
On the question of side applications
of fertilizers, J. N. Harper, director OF
the Soil Improvement Committee and
recognized authority on agricultural
methods of the South, says, that there
are more than the usual advantages
this year in favor OF side applications.
The reason ia apparently favorable to
giving good response to fertilizers.
A word of caution Is, however, sound.
ed by Mr.. Harper. He says that the
side applications should be made early.
Late applications to cotton will only
prolong the growth OF the plant and
favor the boil weevil He says that
1t will be better to make both the side
applications OF complete fertilizers and
the nitrogen top dressing within six
weeks after planting. where the boil
weevil is present.
For corn, he states that side applica.
lions are quite generally made too late
to get the best results. On clay loan
or heavy soils he advises side appli-
cation and nitrogen dressing when the
corn is from knee to waist high, For
sandy or light soils, he says that side
applications can be made later, that is,
when the corn Ia waist to shoulder
high, but before 1t begins to bunch to
tassel.
Mr.. Harper says that care mast be
taken to use only readily available
forms OF fertilizer SO that the growing
plants can utilize them in promoting
rapid growth and development Of fruit.
The fertilizer should contain phos-
phoric acid in the form OF acid phos-
phate. This is the main element for
Fastening maturity. The fertilizer
should also contain nitrogen and potash
In the readily available form. Nitrogen
promotes the growth Of the stalk and
leaves and potash strengthens the plant
and helps fill out the fruit.
A top dressing Of sulfate Of ammonia
or nitrate Of soda is quite commonly
made, and, according to Mr.. Harper, it
should follow closely after the second
application of fertilizer, and within the
periods OF cotton and corn growth
which he mentions above.
Mrs. Grundy. (Tracy City, Tenn.) 1903-1930, 1921-04-21
