fish scraps are good sources Of nj
trogen to use on tobacco. When cot
tonseed meal is used alone it acts
too slowly unless applied at least
| two weeks before the plants are set
out. Sulphate Of ammonia Is
very good source Of nitrogen for to-
! bacco, but not more than one-third
of the nitrogen supply should be de-
rived from this source. A mixture
Of dried flood, cottonseed meal and
sulphate Of ammonia will give eX-
| cellent results. For some reason
the use of nitrate of soda under light
tobacco has mot been specially. sat
isfactory. It appears to cause the
tobacco to remain green and not
ripen properly. Where sulphate OF
potash can be obtained it should be
given preference over murlate OF
potash or kainit. The chlorin Whlch
muriate and kainit contain inter.
hferes with the burning qualities OF
/ the tobacco
AS a rule fertilizer for tobacco
should be applied in the row, as this
methodN seems to give the pest re-
suits. The rows should ordinarily
be laid off a feet apart and the Ter
tilizer applied with a distributor or
fertilizer drill. Thoroughly mix the
fertilizer with the subsoil by run
ming a shovel pillow in the row be
fore it is bedded.> Two burrows turn
ed together with Dixie pillow or cui
tivator are used to cover the fertil,
izer. The fertilizer should be applied
ten days or two weeks before 1t Is
time to transplant the tobacco. "A
second application Of fertilizer is nor
advisable with this crop, as it causes
q second growth.

Inc ace OF tno bfOWns huriuB u-
vision stood the gaff well through
the first seven weeks Of the season
and during this period won twelve
games for himself and for his club.
Some weeks ago he opened Q series
At the Polo Grounds by tossing an
artistic lacing into. the Yanks and
then. after q mild attack Of tonsilitis,
came right back IN the fourth game
Of the .same series and beat them
again. He II big enough and strong
enough to do this sort Of thing
to bat against him In the first and
fourth games OF our present series
here. A q matter Of fact he did
start against us In the opener but
his extraordinary efforts Of the pro-
ceeding weeks had begun to tell
on him and he lasted only three in
nings. He didn't have q thing and
apparently had gone quite stale.
Nevertheless he bobed up on tho
wsrm-up line again the following
day and ] asked him II he intended
to try again 20 soon. He replied
that he did. having pitched only
three innings the day before, and
told him he must be crazy.
"I used to PITCH" reminded him,
and / know what II means to work
out Of turn. You may think you do
not burn up any energy warming
up but I know that there are only
just 20 many pitches in . pitchers
arm and that every time he snaps
his whip he has one less Of them In
stock.
Nevertheless, he insisted on
starting that game and for the
first time In his major league ca
reer he absorbed two defeats In
as many consecutive games. After
he had bean forced to retire he
confided to Aaron Ward that his
stomach was out OF order. and
since then he has gone to . hos.
pital to have II put in shape again.
This means, Of course. that he will
be lost to the Browns for an IN.
dsfinite period and that their
chances Of winning q pennant thia
year VIII fade away to practically
nothing. all because thsy permitted
the bright outstanding star Of Their
pitching staff to start too many
games out Of order.

before the Yankees launched their

All you need TO write q song IL

you have the greater are your
chances for success. Place the

II you've stumbled on New

hard to find q rhyme for these

not be discouraged. Close your

to write about and then do 1t.
In writing the lyrics. be sure
to make them as senseless as you

you'll fail just as grand juries do
