DETROIT, March 6.--Marclr produc-
tion of the Ford Motor Company prob
ably will be somewhat short of the
figure previously indicated. Clogged
roads in the country districts have
held back retail sales. and production
has not been expanded as planned. in
order to give the sales department a
chance to catch up. Therefore the
Ford company probably will not
reach for some time its widely her
aided goal of 10000 cars a day. The
March output is expected to be about
$4,000 units.
On the other hand, the companies
manufacturing the Paige. Hudson and
Chevrolet cars have heavier sched-
ules for March than in February.
Fear of further price increases con-
tinues to be the most potent sales
stimulant for some cars.
Figures collected by the Employ
ers' Association show there are 1884,
512 men employed in 5000 Detroit
factories. The average wage is al
most exactly S. day. Including
office workers and clerks, it is esti-
mated that the average weekly pay
roll in Detroit is about $15,0o0,O00,
nearly twice as large as in the post
war boom days.

NEW YORK, March S.-Automotive

Further advances in manufacturing

mand for automobiles.
I'm some quarters there still continues
the feeling that the spring demand
will run in excess of the supply and
that conditions similar to those ex-
perienced a year ago will be felt this
year.
Sustained buying interest on the part
of the public is in evidence at shows
held at leading distributing points. At
tendance is far better than at last
years shows and sales from the floor

A new deception practiced on the
consumers Of eggs is now attracting
considerable interest from the United
States Department Of Agriculture
which, by the authority of the food
and drugs act, insists that the prod
uct of the hen when sold as fresh
must be fresh and not merely look the
part if it is TO enter into interstate
commerce. Large quantities of eggs
are now preserved by first dipping in
hot oil to seal the pores in the shells
and are then Immediately placed in
cold storage. There is no objection
to the practice, but recently it has
been found that number of egg con-
Germs have been treating these eggs
on removal from storage so as to give
them the appearance of having been
laid lately.
The treatment to remove the tell
tale oil gloss consists in "manicuring'
the shells with blast of fine sand or
in treating them with bath in an

AGRICULTURE

A successful stand of red clover de-
ponds on a number of factors, the alb
sence of any one of them may serious
~ affect the crop. A simple test to
determine the needs Of. the soil on the
farm or in the field where it is desir-
ed to grow clover may be made by
setting aside small plat of ground
in the field for experimental purposes
and trying different treatments of
the soil as regards lime, fertilizers.
etc.
An arrangement of series of eight
plats for such a test is suggested by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. The strip of land to be
used for the test should be as near
representative Of the field as is posi-
BILE to determine from superficial OBJ
servation. Divide it into eight plats
of equal size. Leave the first plat
untreated for check on the treated
plats. On the second spread lime a
lone, on the third lime and phosphate,
on the fourth lime and manure, on the
fifth manure alone, on the sixth ma
nure and phosphate, on the seventh
phosphate alone, and leave the eighth
untreated for another check.
By this arrangement all of the lime
and all Of the manure can be applied
to the experimental plat in one con-
tinuous area. The phosphate alone
must be applied to separate areas, and
phosphate is the easiest to apply. A
ton of ground limestone and $50 to
800 pounds of Is per cent acid phos-
phate per acre is suggested unless the
land is known to be very poor in lime,

when two tons of ground limestone
may be applied. In this outline no
potash has been suggested. Potash
plats can be inserted if desired, but
over most of the clover areas are a
scarcity of phosphate is much more
common than scarcity of potash, and
by following the outline suggested
here the farmer is likely to find which
fertilizer is best to use. This outline
illutrates the principle of definite ex-
Fermentation and can be varied to
suit the kind Of information wanted
One or more check plats to which
nothing is added and which receive
only the same treatment as the main
field must always be left for definite
comparisons.

Dear DR.. Clarke:
I am sending you the money for my
Democrat for 1924 by my cousin, Jen-
ME Bennett, who has been here a.
bout a month and they haven't made
a Republican of her yet. Maybe it is
owing to the fact that she hasn't had
any booze, for I heard the Hon. VIM.
D. Upshaw, Democrat, say, that one
of the worst indictments against
liquor was, that it had been known to
turn a Democrat into Republican
over night. I surely haven't had any
for ! have not turned in over 40 years.
I wish I could say the same for many
Of my friends from home. I'm still q
dry Democrat as the following anec-
dote will prove: A few weeks ago, my
little grandson and another boy were
coming home from school, and both
were saying they were Republicans,
and the other boy remarked that,
Democrats, were no good, they were
all wet" and my grandson said, "You
are mistaken, my grandmother is a
Democrat, and she is the greatest pro-
hibition woman you ever saw"
I had the great pleasure to vote for
the Hon. John McSparrin for Gov
ernor of the State and Robert E. Pat
tison for lieut-governor, but both lost,
I'm sorry to say. But, Gov. Pinchot,
Republican, who won, has made the
finest governor we have had in 40
years since Robert E. Pattison, ST.,
was governor. He was one of my best
friends and I know if I ever have a
chance to vote for Governor Pinchot,
he will be one Republican that will
get this Democrat vote. Hoping your
paper will always prosper, I remain
yours, etc.,
