DESERVING OF HIGH HON0RS
Doctor Wagner of the Darmstsdt Ger
many Experiment Station Has
Done Much for Agriculture.

Fifty years ago DR.. Paul Wagner be-
came director OF the experiment sta
ton at Darmstadt, which had just
been founded, and has since won for
this institution world renown,
through his investigations on plant
foods. Doctor Wagner certainly de-
serves to receive great commentator
for having, with the help Of his own
method Of pot experiments, substan-
TALLY extended, and firmly established
the foundation for the use Of CONNER
dal fertilizers.
He was the first 10 recognize and
correctly estimate the fertilizing ef-
feet Of the Thomas phosphate or basic
Stag.
By a steady improvement In the
methods Of fertilizer experiments In
the field, he succeeded in making Of
these field experiments a practical
means Of exact investigation.
Doctor Wagner, furthermore, has
clearly shown the results Of his In
vestigations In the vegetation house,
field and laboratory, to the practical
farmer, either In articles which are
easily understood, or In inspiring lee
lures; and in this way he has contrib
uted In an enormous degree toward the
proper use Of commercial fertilizers
In agriculture.
Here In the United States many Of
Doctor Wagner's articles are known,
having been translated or summarized
by numerous writers, TO the great adj
rantage Of American agriculture.

Please read them, because they tell

felt, constructive policy exhibited by
two organizations of the state
towards he Buddies at Veteransville
and her sister colony of Silver Star,
which are under the supervision of
the U. S. Veterans Bureau.
The first to come to our notice
was the splendid gift of $1,000 from
the Veterans of Foreign Wars, for
the running expenses of the four
ten-ton tractors loaned by the state
of Minnesota for the purpose of
clearing and breaking up the land
on these agricultural projects. 1t

mediate response to the plea made
to them made the gift doubly valu-
able.
The next gift was that of $500
for the same purpose, from the Man
kato Auxiliary Unit of the American
Legion, at the instigation of DR..
Helen Hughes Heilscher, the first
Auxiliary President, and at the pres
ent time at the head of the hospital
