COMMUNITY SHOWS.

Three Community Shows will be
held In Cecil County the following
dates at the following places: Octo-
Der IS, West Nottingham; Oct. 10,
Appleton; Oct. 81, Calvert.
These shows have been held an
nualIy in Cecil county for number
Of years and the chief object is to
encourage the exhibiting of farm
and household products and learn
where we stand.
There is no better way to improve
ourselves or our farm and house
hold products than to compare our
selves with other people, and our
farm and household products with
those of other farms and households.
Competent judges from the Uni
versity of Maryland Extension Ser
vice will be with us during these
three days and will be very glad to
go over your exhibits with you and
answer any questions they can. In
this way we hope to improve the
quality of our exhibits from year to
year, for the purpose of the exhibits

Various demonstrations will also
be given during the day. An inter-
esting program will be arranged for
each evening.

PENNSYLVANIA GASOLINE TAX

The gasoline tax Of cent gallon
netted the state Of Pennsylvania
$2,3S9,210 the first year it was in
effect. State Treasurer Snyder has
announced after completing the tax
returns for the month of August.
One-half Of the tax is returned to
the counties in which it was collect
ed for highway work, giving the
state and the sixty-seven counties an
equal share Of $1,194,605 each.
1t was estimated when the legis-
lation imposing the gasoline tax was
enacted that it would yield an an
nual revenue Of about 100000.
Attaches Of thestreasury believe that
when a more fthoro method of rum
ming down evaders of the tax is
perfected it will yield more than
100000 annually.
The total tax for August was
$294,129, of which $40.025 was col
lected in Philadelphia County.

LEGUMEs AND SOIL IMPROVE
MENT.

s. Sf n
An adequate program for the
maintenance Of soil fertility should
include these factors:
THE establishment OF q rota-
ton, including legume.
2-The conservation of farm ma
nures.
3-The use OF lime when neces-
sary.
4-The use of fertilizers-gener-
ally complete fertilizer for wheat,
phosphate and potash combination
for corn, and the reinforcement Of
manure with acid phosphate.
The soundness of this program
has been proven by countless soil
experiments and demonstrations,
and is generally recognized. Never
theless, the number of farms where
such program is carried on in its
entirety is few. Inability to grow
clover has been largely responsible
for the omission of this crop from
the rotation. In Indiana, clover is
grown once in rotation of ten to
twelve years as average for the
State; in Ohio, once in sixteen years.
On a goodly number Of farms,
nevertheless. clover, alfalfa, or some
legume is being grown regularly.
Too often the program for perman-
ent fertility has stopped right there.
If the question were asked, does
clover or alfalfa grown in the rota-
ton maintain fertility, most farmers
would answer yes. 1t is well known
that continuous growing of grain
crops without manure or fertilizers
of any kind constitute a drain on
soil fertility which Is apparent be-
cause it can be measured in declin-
ing yields. 1t is not so well known,
however, that alfalfa or clover,
when removed as a hay crop, de-
pletes soil fertility in the same way.
Legumes fix nitrogen, but when the
crop is removed from the soil, not
only is all the nitrogen gained from
the airs taken away, but all of the
| phosphorus, potassium and part of
the nitrogen is lost from the soil.
1t takes nerve to plow under q good
crop of clover. Yet in this way
only is there an actual addition to
the nitrogen-content Of the soil.
Just what part Of nitrogen legumes
take from the soil and what part
from the air has not been definitely
proven. Recent work on the source
of nitrogen for soy beans indicates
that on soil inoculated and well
supplied with lime, 1910 Of the total
nitrogen in the crop may be taken
from the air, and S0% from the soil.
A four ton crop Of alfalfa hay
taken from the land carries with it
200 pounds of nitrogen, IS pounds
of phosphorus, and SO. pounds Of
potassium. Large as is this removal
Of nitrogen, it can be wholly or par
TALLY maintained by blowing under
humus and organic matter in the
form OF manure, stubble, crop resi-
dues, and cover crops after cultiva-
ted crops in the rotation. Phos-
phorous and potassium sooner or
later must be added in system of
permanent fertility, y
Farming with legues but without
the other steps that should follow
may postpone but will not obyiate
the usesof commercial plantfood ma
terials.

How Better Than Pills?

The question has been asked: In
what way are Chamberlain Tablets
superior to the ordinary cathartic
and liver pills? Our answer lis.
they are easier and more pleasant to
take and their effect is so gentle
that one hardly realizes that 1t is
produced by medicine. Then, they
not only move the bowels but inn
prove the appetite and strengthen
the digestion.

tude OF their observations and the
value OF the air service MAJ be
CLEANED from the following rec
ords. The patrol that covers the
country west Of Revelstoke in the
Canadian Notwithstanding Van
couver Island - embracing the
Fraser and Lower Thompson Val
legs as we'll as the Shuswap Lake
region, spent 1891 hours in the
air last summer and flew $4,000
miles, using four HIS 81 Flying
Boats and one F3 Twin Engine
Boat. By means of these craft it
is possible to travel swiftly grea-
distances and over sections inac-
cessible to the fire ranger who
must depend on his canoe and own
sturdy legs to cover his beat.
Air patrols make reconnaissance
of the country over which they fly,
which are of inestimable value.

Fire is the greatest menace to
'anada's 100000 square miles of
