LANCASTER COUNTY USES
MOST FERTILIZER
Her Farmers Get Results By Liberal
Application

The farmers of Lancaster County
excel those of all other counties in
Pennsylvania in the matter of care
of the soil, according to figures COM
piled by the state bureau of statis-
tics. Lancaster tillers have used
twice as much commercial fertilizer
as any other county, one-tenth of all
Of the fertilizer consumed in the
state being applied TO their farms.
York County is the nearest rival,
but Lancaster leads by a margin of
1927 tons. More than 100000 was
expended by the local farmers for
fertilizer last year. Each farmer
who bought the stuff used an aver
age Of three and one-quarter tons
and paid an average price Of $26.80
ton. The average rate thruout the
state is $3.50.
The figures show that 92 per cent
Of the farmers here used fertilizer.
The average amount used to each
acre is placed at 236 pounds. Each
farmer spent an average of 1929 in
1922 to keep his soil fertile.
Comparisons with other counties
show that Lancaster farmers used
1874 times as much fertilizer as did
those of Cameron County, which is
at the foot Of the state list. York
County spent $531,16O, Franklin
County came the closest to the num-
Der of farmers using fertilizer with
t97 per cent. Fertilizer brought the
highest prices in Philadelphia Coun-
ty.

THE HEADACHE

In the back of the neck or base of the
brain is usually direct indication on
eyestrain, showing weakness of some
one or more of the twelve little mus
cles which turn the eyes in their SOCK
cts, particularly those that turn the
eyes towards each other, as when look
ing at near objects, as in sewing and
reading.
Glasses correctly fitted must relieve
these muscles as well as relieve the
eyes individually.
1t is the knowing what to do and
how to do it that gives the eye spec
ialist success where the ordinary spec
tacle filters fail. If you want a thing
done right-a little better that the or
dinary-go to the person who does only
one thing and you are sure of having
it done right If you suffer from head
aches, the chances are you can get per-
manent relief from glasses that are
scientifically fitted to your eyes to re-
lieve the cause of the headaches. When
