 Dublin, January 2.-This has been the liveliest week in Ireland in long time. The authorities In Dublin Castle had re- ported in the previous week a fall In disorders, but this was more apparent than real, as the figures for the week before last included trifling attacks on the mails.
 This week was marked by serious am- bushes. On one day eight barracks in Tipperary were attacked by large bands which were defeated without serious cas- ualties. The most fnsal event was the ambush in county Clare, where a police patrol. whose route was known, was at tackled by 50 men who killed a district Inspector, a sergeant and four constables and wounded two others on the first volley.
 Several ambushes were attempted on a large scale, the roads being blocked by stone walls and trees. They involved no casualties but their preparation in the martial law area indicated that the extremists were not bfluenced by the fear of punishment.

 Briefly the Austrian ex-Emperor Charles has sought to regain the crown of Hungary and has been rebuffed. There seems to be an oversupply of kings these days. Further red" upris- ings are reported as having been sup pressed in Germany.
 The labor party in Great Britain has disavowed any sympathy with the soviet government of Russia. The Bank of England still refuses to reduce it's rate despite Reginald McKennas campaign for a relaxation of credit restrictions. A general strike of the coal miners has begun in England because the govern ment has ceased its control and refuses to subsidize the industry any longer. The precedents indicate, nevertheless, that Lloyd George, the great compro- >lniser, will find way to nuddle through, and there is but little nervousness felt over the outcome in this country.
 Viewing the outlook on both sides the Atlantic synthetically western civiliza- tion appears to be gradually emerging from the economic disorder in which the war involved it.
 The progress is slow. sometimes it is hardly visible from day to day, but it is steady nevertheless and decidedly more rapid in the United States than in Europe Those whose vision is concen- trated upon one particular department or business activity may not see it.

MADISON FARMERS
 TABOO FERTILIZERS
Planters Will Use Smaller Quantity This Season Than
 In Last Thirty Years

Huntsville, April 3.-(Special)- The farmers of Madison county are going to use less commercial fertilizer this year than they have used on any crop in the last 30 years, according to C. F. Striplin, farm demonstration agent
 At the beginning of the year, when the price of fertilizer was $29.25 ton, the farmers made up their minds to get along without it, and made their plans accordingly. Reduction of price to almost half of the early quotations has failed to tempt them and many declare they would not use it if it were $5 ton
 MT. Striplin believes this is mis- take,~ because it will result in great reduction of the cotton yield per acre. The acreage of cotton, it is expected, will be materially reduced and the production will be further reduced by failure to use fertilizer. Some of the farmers have already begun their planting and within the next few days, the weather permitting, considerable planting will be done.
