DISABLED VETERAN DIES
NEGLECTED


Too ignorant to seek compensa-
ton for injuries sustained in war,
Zeb Cooley, an Arkansas veteran, is
dead. His death might have been
un-noticed had it not been for Shell
ton post of the American Legion
which brought comfort to his last
days.
Coley, unable to read or write,
contracted tuberculosis while in SER
vice. After his return, he attempt
ed to support his wife, a babe and
a 90-year-old father, but the fight
proved too heavy.
Unable to understand what the
government proposed to do for
its disabled men, he had attempted
to fight his ewn way back to
health. Impoverished and emaciated,
Coley was discovered by service
workers of the Legion and Auxil-
larry on the verge of death. He was
given immediate medical attention,
but to no avail He was laid to rest
with full military honors, by the
men of the Legion.
The wife, too ill to care for the
little one, is in a Fayetteville hos
pital, where the American Legion
Auxiliary is caring for her. The
babe has been adopted through the
efforts of the Auxiliary. Post offic-
ials expect to prosecute the case
in order to obtain compensation for
the three dependents.

the money allotted Hunterdon

operation.
But why can't the Hunterdon Re-
publicans do the same thing? We
have Christie, of High Bridge, who
is a candidate, and Studdiford, of
Lambertville, who is a candidate
for alternate. Why can't the Hun
terdon Republicans endorse them
just as the Mercer Republicans en-
dorsed Murray and Thropp?
Also it is significant that at the
Mercer meeting Arthur Foran, of
Pennington, was reported to have
aroused enthusiasm by his pledge of
support to Murray and Thropp Why
couldn't Mr.. Foran endorse our own
Hunterdon County men?
You continually hear the complaint
that Hunterdon County is dscrim-
mated against in State appoint
ments, etc. How can you expect re-
cognition of people who do not
stand by their own men?
We have Just MS good men in

We have been reading the "Plas.
tic. Age" by Percy Marks, Profess
sor of English at Brown Univer-
sity.
Rather than attempt TO review ii
ourself, we have asked our daugh-
ter, student at Brown, to give us
her impression of the book,
This she has done, in the form
of letter from which we quote:
"My immediate impression of the
book was, that it was rather a
knowing thesis on inner college life
--but-as | have thought about it
since, have decided that it is a
rather superficial study of certain
ones in colleges who are not the
backbone of our schools.
"In my opinion Percy Marks does
not understand the psychology of
the later adolescent, the boy and
the girl who are approaching matur-
ity."
'Prof Marks has neglected to
mention some of the better motives
and greater human values that are
present in this very modern college
hfe.''
at is my further opinion that in
this trying process of growing up,
every single youngster goes thru
cycle of processes that every one of
his ancestors before him have gone
thru.
"As a child, our modern hoy or
girl has hit upon things that seem
ed to lie outside of his fairyland ex-
isoence. He has asked, Why ?"
Tbs knowledge has either been post
poned or actually denied him.

HOME FACTS
AND FANCIES
ATTRACTIVE LAWNS NEED
PROPER FERTILIZER

Green lawns free from dead spots
and weeds require a reasonably well
fortified soil. Though proper fertil-
ization is simple matter many
householders either neglect it alto
gether or make the mistake of put
ting on substances which are either
ineffective or positively injurious.
"A very good fertilizer for New
Jersey lawns contains A or per
cent of ammonia, 8 of phosphoric
acid, and A of potash, advises A,
w. Blair, associate soil chemist at
the New Jersey State College of
Agriculture at New Brunswick.
"This may be obtained from fer
ilizer dealers by asking for 4-S-4
mixture or a 5-8-4. One hundred
pounds of it is sufficient for one
fifth acre or about 5000 square
feet.
For one who wishes to make
his own mixture the following ingre-
dents will be found to make an ex-
cellent fertilizer for lawns: Is
pounds of nitrate of soda; 10 pounds
of ammonium sulfate; so pounds OF
acid phosphate; 10 pounds of muri-
ate of potash; and Is pounds of dry
earth or sifted ashes. For economy
these chemicals should be bought
from a fertilizer dealer. The earth
or sifted ashes serve to make a
better mechanical mixture and tc
bring the weight up to 100 pounds
thus making it easy to determine the
rate of application. The quantity is
enough for 5000 square feet.
EITHER the ready-made or the
homemade mixture may be applied
just before rain, or the lawn may
be sprinkled, but this is not abso-
lutely necessary if the fertilizer has
been evenly distributed"

PRODUCER TO-CONSUMER
AREA INCREASED
BY GOOD ROADS

Statistics of the use of good roads
by farmers for direct marketing to
consumers show the great advan-
tages hard roads possess for the
man who makes his living directly
from the soil. 1t has been shown
that the longest dairy route profit
able over good earth road is Is
miles for the round trip, while over
a hard road the dairy farmer can
operate profitably route with a
total length of 40 miles. This applies
to every truck farmer, poultry rails
er, and farmers in general with
produce to sell direct to the con-
sumner. Moreover, the 15-mile trip
over an earth road is only practic-
able part of the year, while the
40-mile route over the hard road
is good all the time, regardless of
the season.
With hard roads, all country pro-
ducers of foodstuffs can make prof
liable daily trips to the city and
back from distance of 20 miles
creating cer-to-consumer
area with radius of 20 miles
around every city.
Not only the farmer connected
with direct market, but he who is
connected by a hard road with a
railroad shipping point, reaps steady
profit from good highways. In many
States it has often happened that
fruit has been allowed to rot and
fertile fields have gone uncultiva-
ted because impossible roads have
made profitable sales out of the
question. Good roads mean steady
profits and constant demand for
farm products at good prices.

six per cent with which to pay said
taxes-AND | AM ONE OF THEM!
When the Commissioners intim-

there was a scramble by those who
could scratch up the money with
which to pay up.
But why shouldn't the Commits

provides for it, and it is just to all
It would eliminate, for one thing,
the peddling of names by enemies
of those who are on the list, while
at the same time some of the great
est delinquents escape mention.
