Call on U. 8. Minister.
Last evening after dinner we went
over In d body-save two who were on
the sick list--to call upon the American
minister. J. v. A. MacMurray. who had
just returned to Peiping from visit to
the seashore, where he went just before
our arrival to recover from the severe
shock caused by the death of his moth
er in Washington. He received us most
cordially and entertained US In the cool
of his garden. which he said was an
oasis In the desert of Peiping.
At the railroad station this morning we
were wiven a great send-off. Whereas
on our arrival we were greeted by q

were Speeded with two bands. Just as

suggested the political situation.
That political situation will call for
q little more study before I can attempt

SECRETS OF SOIL SOUGHT By
MANY MARYLAND FARMERS,
SURVEY REVEALS


That many farmers have a scien-
tiic or inquisitori1l turn Of mind is
indicated by the pesults OF survey
of over $4,000 farmers in "a States
who were personally and uniformly
interviewed by representatives OF the
National Fertilizer association.
The survey was made during the
past summer to obtain c0mprehen-
sive picture OF the what, where,
when, who, how and Why Of the
use of fertilizer in the principal con-
Stunning areas Of the country
OF the 4S,055 farmers who repli-
ed to the question, Have you ever
made any comparisons with or with
out fertilizer2' lib we're in Mary
land.
A compilation Of all the answers
of Maryland farmers shows that
1872 per cent have made tests on
their farms to determine the effect
,of fertilizer applications as compar-
ed with no fertilizer. In addition,
25.3 per cent said they had made
tests of different kinds and amounts
of fertilizer, thus indicating that
many farmers make use Of the best
research method known to- scientists
experimentation.
OF the 4S,055 farmers in "a States
who replied to the above question,
al per cent, or nearly four out OF
ten. said they had tried tests with
and without fertilizer, and 1874 per
cent. or about three and one-han out
of ten, said they had tested different
kinds and amounts.
Commenting on the replies OF
farmers to this question, Charles J.
Brand, executive secretary and
treasurer of the National Fertilizer
association, Washington, ID. e,
points out that fertilizer manufac-
turers and agricultural extension
services generally encourage farmers
to make tests. He states that man
ufacturers know from. experience
that the farmer who tests fertHlzer
on his own farm learns more accur-
atelv the analysis of nitrogen, phos-
phoric acid and potash in complete
fertilizer that his soil needs to pro-
.duce the most profitable yields.
Mr.. Brand says that when farmer
makes a test, usually the increase in
yield, the Fastening Of maturity or
the improvement of quality so. I'M
presses him that he thereafter uses
more and better fertilizer.
Judging from the survey, Kansas
farmers are most inquisitive as to
how their soils respond to fertilizer,
IS per cent of those interviewed re-
porting tests to compare the. results
with and without fertilizer. How
ever, the number of interviews in
Kansas was comparatively small,

Lady Nancy Astor, who is greatly
interested in welfare work among
women, while in Washington recently,
took occasion to visit the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company's
headquarters building and some of the
central offices. She was shown through
the companys exchanges and EN-
ployees' lunch and recreation rooms,
and expressed great admiration as
to the manner in which the telephone
company looked after the welfare of
its employees and the excellent con-
ditiors under which they work.
Lady Astor showed great familiarity
with working conditions generally, and
asked many questions Of the chief
operators and supervisory employees
of the telephone company regarding
such matters. The visit was entirely
informal and grew out Of her interest
in working conditions for women.

GRADE CROSSING ACCIDENTS IN
STATE DURING YEAR

Grade-crossing accidents were ia
tai to twenty-five persons on: all rail-
road lines in Maryland in the fiscal
year ended September 80, H. Carl
Wolf, chief engineer of the Public
Service Commission, states. This
number is an increase of one death
over 1927. a
According to- Mr. Wolf, there were
forty-three accidents at railroad
crossings, and in addition to the
number of persons killed forty-seven
were injured. Seventeen of the ac-
cidents were at crossings Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, fifteen on
the Baltimore and Ohio, three on the
Western Maryland and eight on the
minor steam and electric railways.
Four accidents occurred at eros
sings which were not marked in any
manner, Mr.. Wolf said.
Twenty-one accidents. occurred
where. there were only signs, four at
crossings where there we're only bell
signals, four at crossings where
there were light signals, eight where
watchmen were employed and two
where gates served as protection.
OF those killed five were pedes-
TRANS struck by locomotives. The
remaining twenty-five were occu-
pants of motor vehicles which either
ran into trains or were struck by To-
comotives at the crossings.
