Fertilizer is a good example.
Let US suppose a soil test calls
for five ton Of lime, several
qualities of lime and methods
of application are available.
Qualities range from 1900, 1,700,
1000, $500 and $500 pounds to
equal one ton of agricultural
limestone.
Prices vary just about as much
in the opposite direction. This
presents the questions, which is
the best buy? This will then vary
by the method of application and
the minimum handling is usually
considered to be the most econ
omical. Having the man deliver
ing the lime also spread it by US
ing a spreader-truck is easier
than having it dumped and again
loading it in a lime spreader
for application which requires
a lot of labor.
Using a pencil will help you
determine the best method and
quality for you. The same ap-
plies to fertilizer. Higher analy-
sis fertilizers are generally
cheaper per pound Of plantfood
and plantfood is the most i'm
portant part of the fertilizer. The
non-plantfood part is only added
weight to be handled, stored,
shipped, etc, and adds to the
cost of getting the fertilizer
where the plants can use it. A
pencil will help you determine
the best analysis to use and what
your pocket book can afford to
buy.

Failure Wipes Out Effort to Give
Nixon a Boost in His Campaign

Administration hopes Of
impresSing the United Ma
tions and helping Vice Presi-
dent Nixon by a spectacular
space success have faded.
Another moon shot failed
last week end, the sixth set
back in seven such tries by
the civilian space agency.
It's experts believe they
have done all they can at
present although a late
October effort is still pos
sible. They are naturally un-
happy over their failures,
but relaxation of the intense
political pressures on them
to get fast results will be
welcomed.
The refusal to give the
conquest of space a higher
priority in the struggle for
the defense dollar was Presi-
dent Eisenhower's. He
thought other projects more
important and he did not
want to ask for bigger ap-
preparations. Many industri-
aliSts still think he made the
correct decision and argue
that too much emphasis is
being put on space and not
enough on solid American
triumphs in the missile
rocket field.
But the politicians who live
much closer to the aspir-
ations and fears of the
American people see it diff

The Effect of the Great Debates

1t isn't merely a change in
the person occupying the
White House. for President
Eisenhower is moving out
anyway. but whether the
entire machinery Of the in
cumbent administration shall
be turned out of Office and
an almost entirely new crew
put in charge of the ship of
state. This would mean re-
placement of cabinet officers
and other assistants. ambas-
sadors and ministers and
various high-ranking Off
cials throughout the Gov
ernment.
While another Republican
President would doubtless
follow in the main the
Eisenhower policies, a DEM
ocratic President would be
pledged by his party plat
form to change them radi-
cally. Do the people want
such a change, and what
explicitly are they being
promised by way of a change
in foreign policy and eco
nomic policies? Will a desire
for change be aroused after
listening to or watching the
great debatesp Are crowds
and cheers or personality to
be decisive? Curiosity brings
out crowds, as William Jen-
nings Bryan, the most color
full candidate of the century,
found out after three de-
feats--it doesn't necessarily
mean favorable votes.
In the final analysis, vot-
ers decide on what the
change in administration
could mean for them per-
sonally. If there is a high
tide of dissatisfaction and
discomfort running, it does
not matter who the opposing
candidate is or whether he
makes many speeches or
public appearances at meet
ingS or on television shows.
Also, If there is no such tide
and only the usual campaign
criticism, and the American
people just don't think it
is time to change horses in
midstream." as the political
saying goes, the party of the
administration in power will
be continued by a landslide
Of electoral votes. For.
though many a State may
be close, the election can be
decided by a tiny majority
within each State.

Expectation of Mild Reaction Believed
Basis for Offensive Grondstund Play

I'VE must proceed with
tact and caution" this re-
porter was told by responsible
personalities in the admins
tration last week end, "be-
cause the situation these days
is no longer what it was in
the past. The newly ad-
mitted free African countries
must be considered, since
their voices added to the al
ready existent Asian-African
bloc may be determining in
any showdown"
AS a matter of fact, with
the exception of Guinea and
Ghana, and possibly Congo
if Lumumba returns to Office.
most of the new African re-
publics, which have been
French colonies, are fully
expected to vote with the
free West. They belong to
the French Community and
rely to a great extent on
Paris for economic and tech
biological assistance as well
as for the organization and
equipment of their national
defense forces. Most of their
executives are locally French
educated. Some Of them have
parliamentary and admin
Strative experience since
they have served in the
French National Assembly
or as French officials during
colonial days. Because of
this, some Washington off,
cialS regret the departure of
Frances Foreign Minister
Couve de Murville from New
York. 1t is true that he an
nounced on his arrival that
he would remain only a week
because Of pressing business
in Paris. There is, however,
substantiated speculation
that President de Gaulle is
disgusted with the three-ring
