Ammonium Sulphate
Gives Maximum Returns
INV County Agent E. c. Durdle)


It has come to our attention that
some of the fertilizer statesmen oper-
ating in the territory have used the
term, "poor mans fertilizer as applied
to ammonium sulphate. Apparently
the attempt is being made to make the
man purchasing fertilizers feel that he
is lowering himself as to class of farm
err in purchasing this material as a
fertilizer in place of the complete fer
tilizers It is true that ammonium sui
phate carries as a fertilizer material
only nitrogen, while the complete fer
tilizers carry all Of the three fertility
elements, nitrogent, phosphoric acid,
and potash, in the more or less amount.
However, to use the term poor mans
fertilizer of ammonium sulphate In
any sales talk in discussing fertilizers
is to place ones self in about as un-
ethical position, as we see it, as possible
In these times of shortage OF cash
or credit and yet when the commercial
fertilizers are essential to the econom-
ical production of many of the crops
it is just plain common sense for the
grower to use the fertilizing material
which will give him the greatest returns
per dollar expended. If used wisely
there is no fertilizer material which
will give greater returns on the above
basis than ammonium sulphate IN this
area It is true that experimental re-
suits have shown that occasionally the
other materials phosphoric acid and
potash, have given some returns but
our greatest returns have practically
always come from the use of nitrogen
Nitrogen can be purchased in am
monium sulphate as cheaply, as fa1
as we know, as in any other form OF
straight nitrogen fertilizer
In this brief statement we would like
to say that the use of a straight nj
trogen fertilizer in the form in which
the nitrogen can be purchased the
cheapest is the fertilizing materia
which should be given first attention
during these times. Now as never be-
| fore, farmers need to consider expen.
ditures carefully. Growers with money
are usually wise buyers and their pur'
chases undoubtedly would be made
along these same ideas unless short.
sighted statesmen have convinced then
that some other fertilizer material wa
the best thing for them, merely tx
make sale for the commission tt
be earned.
We do not want to leave the impress
sion that there is no place for thu
complete fertilizer in the field of agri
culture and sometimes 1t has been tn
salesman selling other products sucl
as lime or raw phosphate that ha
used the same tactics but we do wan
to say again that for the general east
ern Washington irrigated sections, tina
a straight nitrogen fertilizer carefull
used will give greater returns per dol
lar expended than any other fertil
izers and for this reason feel tina
anyone trying to discredit a farme
because of it's purchase through sucl
term as the poor mans fertilizer
is doing a gross injustice to the farm
err and agriculture of this territory.

State Wide Brake Test
Rapidly Develops
Work VIII Be Completed Within
Two Weeks-State Patrol As
Sisting Local Police

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 4-As state
highway patrolmen assigned to as
sist local police departments in
the brake check up drive now being
conducted throughout the state
have so much territory to cover
during the next two weeks, they
will spend only one day at time
in town, but may return at a
later date, John P. Arnoldy, patrol
chief, announced.
IF patrolmen check brakes in a
town on Monday, they will depart
that night, but may come back
Thursday, or Friday or a week lat
er to complete their work, the chief
explained. Their return will be a
surprise visit so motorists who
learned of their presence during the
first day of checking and who avoid
ed them may be stopped during the
second visit.
Police chiefs who have asked for
the assistance of the highway patrol
in checking brakes have informed
Chief Arnoldy that they are hold
ing themselves in readiness for the
appearance of brake checking
crews. In a number of towns, the
chief said, local police do not like
to conduct the tests themselves
without brake testing machines.
Each patrol crew assigned to brake
tests carries a machine which reg
listers and prints the stopping dis
lance of cars.
In other places police are con-
Quoting tests without the aid of
patrolmen. Where machines are
not available rs feet is marked off
by two lines on the pavement and
cars are required to stop within the
lines from a speed of 20 miles an
hour.
Officials of the Minnesota Police
Association and the Minnesota Safe
ty Council, sponsors of the state
wide brake drive, have expressed
themselves as being very satisfied
with the results of the check ups
to date. Hundreds of cars with
practically no brakes at all have
been found by police and highway
patrolmen. Adjustments are being
compelled on all cars with defective
brakes and III many places fines
are also being imposed.
Thousands of 20. K" windshield
stickers, which are issued at auth
orized garages after thorough safe
| ty inspections, have been placed on
automobiles and trucks since the
brake drive began, according to c.
H. Zealand, executive secretary of
the Safety Council The stickers,
which certify the cars bearing them
have been found mechanically safe,
carry exemption from brake tests
anywhere in Minnesota and in most
outside states.

Needy Farmers May Have
Land Loans Revamped
Federal Land Bank of st. Paul,
Announces Low Cost Re
Amortization

Amortization
| Many Federal Land Bank borrow
ers who, because of low prices,
drouth and grasshoppers have not
been able to meet their loan install
ments, will have a chance to have
their loans re-amortized, it is an
nounced by the Federal Land Bank
of st. Paul. This will afford those
whose need is greatest an opportun-
ity to merge certain delinquencies
into the unpaid balance and go
ahead with their payments as thou
they were getting new loans. The
decision applies to the states of
North Dakota, Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin and Michigan.
This feature of the Emergency
Farm Mortgage Act will enable
many farmers to put their loans in
good standing and be rid of the
burden of delinquent installments.
These delinquencies will thus be
paid up a little at a time and will
draw only Az per cent interest I'M
til July II, 1888, instead of the PEN
atty rate required by law. After the
end of this 5-year extension period
the loan will revert to the interest
rates that were in effect for the
original loans, these being per
cent above the rates at which the
Land Bank bond issues were sold.
It is possible that not all borrow
ers with delinquencies will get re-
amortizations as pointed out by
John Thorpe, general counsel of the
bank. Such borrowers as are I'M
able to receive the recommendation
of their National Farm Loan Assoc
citation may not be thus served be-
cause in order TO make any re-
amortization legal, the re-arrange-
nent must be approved by the Ma
tional Farm Loan Association.
The cost to borrowers of getting
demonstrations has been reduced
to 81 per loan, although the actual
expense to the bank will be more
than this, it having been decided
that the bank will absorb the diff
ference. Lists of borrowers who
may be eligible are now being COM
piled and will be sent to the loan
associations. demonstrations are
to be made for the same term OF
years for which the original loans
were made.

BENEFIT CONCERT GIVEN.

THE Washington Artists series, pre-
sented by the Ten O'clock Club, in
augurated its concerts last evening at
the Solgrave Club The artists pre-
sented were Sylvia Meyer, harpist, and
Florence Yocum, soprano. Helen Fet-
ter Cook, who was to have spoken
about the music on the program. was
prevented by illness from being present.
The concert proved to be a distinct
success from an artistic standpoint, but
the needy musicians benefit from the
proceeds of such small attendance
must necessarily be small. The idea
of giving aid to those who, having
made music their life work, are
now suffering from lack of employment
is so worthy that it deserves the CO.
operation of every more fortunate mu-
sician or music lover in the city. A
concert such as this first one of the
series is worth turning out to hear.
Miss Meyer proved herself to be a
harpist whose natural gifts are en-
hanced by her serious musicianship.
