PROFITS ON PLAY
AUTHOR OF THE LITTLE MINISTER REALIZES LARGE FOR TUNE FROM PRODUCTION.
The Merry Widow* Also Nets Hundreds of Thousands to Writer.
The late George Edwardi was not only the most successful of modern theatrical managers, but he was also the most spectaculare. He thought nothing of investing £10,000 to £20,000 in the presentation of a big musical comedy.
When he sent the "Duchess of Dantiz" to America he lost £10,000 and another £20,000 on "Veronique." On the other hand he scored stupendous success, notably with "The Merry Widow." At Daly's alone £241,000 was paid for seats, and over 500,000 copies of the music of the "Merry Widow Waltz" were sold on this country.
As an illustration of the pranks fortune plays sometimes in connection with the production of musical comedies, it might be mentioned that Mr. Edwardi sold "Jorothy," one of the first plays he ever produced at the Gallet, for £10,000, because it was such a failure there. Mr. H. J. Leslie, who bought it, took it to the Prince of Wales' theater, and made £100,000 out of it.
One would probably be safe in saying that the four men who have made the most money in writing for the English stage are Sir W. S. Gilbert, Sir A. W. Pimero, Sir J. M. Barrie and Mr. Henry Arthur Jones. Gallivan's operas provided Gilbert with an income of £12,000 a year, "The Second Mr. Tanqueray" alone brought Pimero something like £60,000.
In addition, "Sweet Lavender" poured £40,000 into his pockets, and although the late Mr. Edward Terry paid this sum in fees to the author he cleared £60,000 out of the play, and probably half as much again from provincial tours.
"The Little Minister" earned Sir J. M. Barrie £400 a week for a number of years, and long before the curtain fell on the last performance at the Haymarket the net profits had reached £100,000. Then there were such plays as "Quality Street," "Peter Pan" and "The Admirable Crichle," all stage mines...Tit-Bills.
URGE BETTER CONCRETE.
U. S. Experts Suggest Proper Methods of Mixing
Contractors, engineers and users of cement will be interested in a publication recently issued by the United States, bureau of standards on the comprehensive strength of Portland cement, mortars and concretes. Concrete differs from most structural materials in that it is not manufactured at a mill or plant according to chemical formula under the observation of skilled specialists, subject, to rigid inspection and test and such control as to produce a uniformity homogeneous product; nor is the process of manufacture completed in a few hours or days, as in the case of steel products. Furthermore, concrete is made from materials obtained from sources differing widely in characteristics which affect its quality. The proportions of the ingredients; the amount of water used in mixing; the thoroughness of mixing; the manner of placing; the atmospheric temperature and humidity; exposure to sun, rain and wind; immersion in fresh water sea water or other natural solutions—all affect the quality of the concrete.
This paper contains the results of some 20,000 tests. It shows the general effect of variation in the methods of preparing the concrete and suggests the proper methods to follow in order to obtain the best quality. The paper states that certain generally arecepted methods of testing aggregates and proportioning mixtures are incorrect and suggests methods of selecting concrete aggregates, proportioning the mixture, mixing, placing and curing—Commerce Report.
BEANS WERE CURRENCY
Cacao passed as currency among the natives of Central and South America at the time of the European conquest and that despite a plentiful supply of gold, Joseph Acosta, in 1510, tells us the Indians used "none of their gold or silver for traffic in or buy withall, and unto this day the custom continues among them that instead of money they use cacao."
The Antecs of ancient Mexico also used "cacao" as small chance, as many as 8,000 beans being counted legal tender. The value of the beans may be judged from the fact that "a tolerably good slave" could be purchased for 160 of them—London Chronicle.

Mr. E. church, Sunday afternoon, Dr. Haynes and Mr. Hall are leading in a very important work with which they have the united support of our people here and elsewhere in the country. They are progressive, congenial and able.
Tuesday evening all were returned their money who purchased a tainy ind. lot or lots from Judge May (white) at Sidhil Baptist church, recently, except E. W. Mack and W. C. Fisher. Mr. Mack took that ind. lot and Fisher took that ind. lot who had claimed to have purchased two lots, paying $40 on them if he was going to get his money back at the meeting. Tuesday evening, Shiloh's pastor did not make any reply when he (Fishback) was boosted by the money he received. Shiloh assembles one evening in February, he denounced the "Erg Hurbor" lots as practically worthless and urged those present to purchase Gary. Ind. lots, from Mayo, etc., etc. Mr. Mack says Denon Fisher told him that his wife was purchasing his pastor's talk, referred to above she dropped them and purchased a Mayo-Gary. Ind. lot. There is considerable dissatisfaction among Shiloh's members who want to know how much money is in the church building func and a "storm is brewing." This is not right to know at any and all times and should be insisted upon until secured. Mack and Fisher secured their "lot" money, later in the week.
1914
Stars Agen'-Old Brown University Star Still "the Best Eyer."
Baltimore, MD. With a field of more than 400 gibbets at the annual intangibles at the Second Regiment Athletic Association, recently, Fitz Pollard, who has, on previous occasions played have with world records, added another star to his crown by establishing a new indoor record for the 400-yard low hurdle. Pollard "topped the timbers" in the 1914 heats, thereby clipping off one first-place finisher and one record. Pollard was one of the stellar lights of Brown University football team in 1917, and acquitted himself in an exceptionally creditable manner. He also enjoys the distinction of having beaten. Yale in a game of football, holding his own all along the forty-fourth even at the highest recommendation from the daily press and from all of the sport writers. They admit that he no peer in his line of sport. Pollard was named on the All-Americans by Walter Camp, the co-elected football critic. On the football field his reeve was on the court, and his successes. On account of his prowess Pollard has been honored more than any "clean" athlete of the race. This is the first time that an Afro-American has competed for such a high honor south of the "Mason and Dixon line."

Deserted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People—His Attorneys Ask for a New Trial
Watson, H. H., Dr. Larry N. Rundle, former E. St. Louis, H. St. dentist and resident of Cleveland, O., and son of Rev. Charles Bandy of that city, who was arrested for Cleveland, was found guilty and sentenced to life imprisonment for a Friday afternoon, after a trial, that lasted most of the week, on a charge of compulsing to murder in connection with the killing of two detectives who are said to have been actively engaged in the promotion of the infamous riot in E. St. Louis, this state, on the night of July 1, 1917. The riot, which was called the riot, is said to have led to the subsequent riot outbreaks the following year, participated in by E. St. Louis police, actively and passively, in which more than 200 innocent and helpless Afro-Americans, men, women and children, were wantonly and brutally
Dr. E. A. Bailey Gives His Impressions—Unfairness.
My Dear Mr. Smith: As one of those present at the funeral of Dr. Leverett, I was just a week at Waterloo, IL. I wish to say that it was the precise excuse for a court of justice. I ever saw. The state witnesses showed clearly it was a "frame-up". It is hard to believe that a man could so blissfully be wronged by being in his rulers. He allowed the state witnesses to tell everything that would tend to convict the defendant but he permitted the latter's witnesses no such similar freedom of expression as would show that Dr. Leverett was wronged by E. S. Louis riot were prompted by a desire to defend themselves and their homes. Several times Dr.
"JIM CROWISM" THE RACE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES
According to the colegrams, Mr Wilson is "studying race questions" in Europe with a view to protecting the rights of "minority races." It is human nature to look into the distance for what is at your very feet. It is human nature to be concerned about the mote in the other fellow's eye. Now we have in our own country one of the finest fields for the study of "Race Problems" to be found anywhere on earth. In nearly all of what we term the southern states long to a race whose rights are absolutely disregarded. They have no representation in the local and state governments. As a rule they are not even allowed to vote for the white men whose membership in congress is based on the counting of the heads. They are virtually half the population of many of these states, but they are allowed no representation among the officers or judges or jurors of the state. They are more than 45 percent of the population, but they do not receive 10 per cent. of the funds provided to them. They are simply "handled" by the majority without their own consent or co-operation. More than that, they are often bratly mistreated and done to death by the score in a single year, without redress and without any real effort on the part of the state to protect them. And, mind you, the majority of authorities here but no authority whatever in Lithuania or Italy.
He has only "influence" abroad; he has "authority" in the United States. Of course it will not hurt the problem in the United States to solve a similar issue in the Haitians; and Mr. Negro could be helped abroad if backed up by consistency at home. But he is even more hammered by the rights of independent nations abroad. He could at least do at home what he is doing abroad—speak and use his influence. We are to forgetful of the fact that he did not want to be the president of home. But we content that the president of the United States has more than "influence" at home—he has "authority". And especially he had the greatest authority in the days of war to not down and to punish law-breakers. He listened, lynched and murder are not the cost of the matter; they are only symptoms of the deeper trouble. The real trouble is the inequality of the citizenship of the Negro with that of the white man. We do not mean constitutional inequality, but the unequal regard by the legislators and the instrators. We mean also the crooked laws of society, written and unwritten, by which the Negro is marked for the mob.
The heart of the difficulty compresses disfranchisement, or in-
leach murdered. Ten members of the race, previously have been "found guilty" and are serving terms in the Illinois penitentiary for trying to protect themselves and others from the E. St. Louis mob of white brutes, the E. St. Louis court of justice, new trial and court case to the U. S. Supreme Court, if possible, in an effort to get justice for their client, Dr. E. A. Hajley, a leading physician of Cleveland and Major W. T. Anderson (U. S. Army, retired) of the same city, important witnesses for Dr. Rundy, returned to Cleveland, Thursday and Friday respectively. The now famous, Rundy case was delivered by the court controller N. A. A. C. P, last fall on the recommendation of Dr. "Alphabetic" Droebois because he (and its other officials) were not permitted to handle ALL of the money collected for the defense of Dr. Rundy.
Bundy was referred to as a race leader in that section. From what I could glean it seems that race leadership among our people there is very much feared and there is an effort to cut them down. No wonder he was so afraid. He was also sued a court. If the N. A. A. C. P. does not respond at a time like this, in what way does it hope to convince us of the honesty of its purpose? After listening to what was said at Waterloo, one cannot help but be convinced that this Bundy "verdict" is a great blow to the program. This, to my mind, is a great call to every loyal member of the race to see to it that he does his bit at a time such as this. From my observation, I doubt very much that Dr. Bundy will be able to secure a just and impartial trial in the state of Illinois as race feeling seems to be keen and high. Yours sincerely. -- DR. E. A. BALEY.
direct, exclusion from office, segregation and Jim-Crowism "Jim-Crowism" is "Jim Crowism" more than mob violence. It kills the soul as well as the body. It works, not for one mad hour, but for twenty-four hours in every day. Its year's toll of victims is not three-score, but millions. It is not sudden death—it is worse; it is perpetual torture. Jim-Crowism "Jim-Crowism" is more than mob violence is only one of its manifestations.
To cry out against the violence without attacking the real monster is like, academically disapproving of the heat while we allow the fire to burn on our inequality of citizenship, Mr. Wilson. To attempt to pull out one of its teeth or to clip one of its claws, but kill the monster itself. How nice, it would be if, while trying to encourage "minority races" abroad, Mr. Wilson could, speak from this subject, "How We Have Settled the Race Problem, in the United States."—Xenia (O.1) Daily Republican.
St. James A. M. E. church has just closed a very successful revival, Miss Martha Keen, evangelist, preached and sang, every night, for three weeks. At all services, the church was filled. Twenty-nine persons were consented and 40 joined the church in worship. Last Sunday, the pastor spoke in the morning on the subject, "The Drift of the Age," and at night on "Dancing an Aid to Moral Decline." The Sunday School and Allen League were well attended. Mrs. Sarah Green mother of Mrs. J. Ballard, the pastor of the respected members, died suddenly March 25, and was buried at Berlin Heights, the pastor and a member of friends accompanying the body there. Mr. John Venia, an attendant at the church, was struck by an auto on his way to the revival meeting and died in Philadelphia. Mrs. Georgia Jones accompanied the body to Virginia, his former home, Mr. and Mrs. David Borges, of E. 1001 St., will return this week from an visit with their daughter in New York. Mrs. Caroline Washington and Mrs. Sada Aida, of E. 1001 St., will return the presidents' conference at Akron, last week. Mrs. Odessa Butler of Arthur Ave., entertained the Senior W. M. M. society, Thursday evening. Mrs. Robert Burns of Morris Ave., entertained the Trustee Helpers. Tuesday, the presidents held a soothful circle at the parsonage. Among the soldier boys of St. James that have returned from over-seas are W. Wilken, Ray Green, Frank Porter, Mr. Crosby and Elliott Williams. The church has begun a drive for $2,000, the last Sunday in June.

MARINES-AND HYDROGRAPHERS FIND NOTED SEE CAPTAIN'S CHARTS VALUABLE.
III Fated Sailor Makes Surveys Over Entire Globe.
Today hydrography is looked upon as the most important science, and without the hydrographer's efforts it would not be possible, except under very great danger to navigation, of the very large vessels to penetrate the waters of the world, and to carry on navigation as it is conducted at the present time.
Today the physical features of all navigable streams are carefully placed upon charts, the task is simple and devoid of risk. Governments of all nations prepare the most elaborate charts and maps, showing the exact location and condition of all bodies of water, giving the contour of the sea bottom, the position of shalows, deeps, reefs and the direction and volume of currents.
The first step in the modern science of hydrography was accomplished in the fifteenth century by Henry. "The Navigator," who was the first to construct a sea chart worthy of the name, but very little in this line was accomplished until Capt. James Cook of the English navy commenced his long career of ocean surveying in 1759.
Capt. Cook's first work was the mapping of the St. Lawrence river and lay from Quebec to the ocean, which he accomplished while stationed with the fleet cooperating with Gen Welford in the waters upon Quebec. Four years later, he was sent to survey the coast of Newfoundland, and the following year he performed—as similar duty for the coast of Labrador, and thereafter he continued similar hydrography observations wherever he was ordered until his death in 1749.
Cook's chart in the region of Newfoundland and Labrador were so well done, and were of such valuable service that even to the present day they are recognized as possessing great accuracy, and give fair grounds for the belief that he might, under other circumstances, have proved himself as culprit as a surveyor as he actually did as an explorer.
Cook spent practically his whole life at sea. He navigated every part of the globe, discovering many new islands, and correcting, many false ideas regarding the outlines of continents, and beat of all, he was able to leave the result of his work on maps, charts and in written descriptions so that the work of those who followed him was practically easy.
It was Capt. Cook who established our knowledge of the South Pacific on a substantial basis. In fact, the maps of that part of the world still remain essentially as he left them, though, of course, much has been done in perfecting the details.
Cook was at the head of the first expedition to make a serious attempt to discover a passage around the north of America. It was during this attempt that he lost his life. Having reached the Sandwich Islands, his crew got into altercations with the natives. After some depredations, the gallant captain himself landed at Hawali and resolved to bring the king on board his vessel as a hostage.
The king readily consented to go, but his family and the islanders generally prevented him. They showed light, and the marines escaped to the boat and, as Cook was attempting to do likewise he was stunned by a blow as his back was turned, and as he sank on his knees he was stabbed, his crew made way and the body of their captain was left in the hands of the savages.
Cook's body was mutilated by the savages, but the most of it was given up a day or two afterwards and fully buried. In November, 1874, an obelisk to his memory was erected in the immediate neighborhood of the spot where he fell, but the truest and best memory that survives is his map of the Pacific.
After Cook's work along the Labra港, the French, who had been careful observers of it, in 1875 sent out two ships under La Perouse and a corps of scientists to visit the northwest coast of America, and to explore other parts. After spending two years and a half Perouse went to Botany bay, after which he was never heard from, except that information that was forthcoming seven or eight years afterward; which made it probable that the ships were wrecked on the reef on the coast of Mallicollo.
La Perouse had, however, affiduates of charts and journals up to the time of his arrival at Botany bay. The work done by these early English and French navigators was imitated by those of other nations.

covenant of the proposed league. of
nations. It will not be changed o1
amended. Take it or leave it. Former
President Taft holds, however, that it
is the duty of President Wilson to see
to it that the covenant is amended
and materially amended. Under date
of Mareh 11, he says:
“It is to be hoped that the Presi-
dent will press for amendments which
can be drawn without great difficulty
to remove the conscientious objections
of a number of the senators on the
subject of the Monroe Doctrine, the
duration of the treaty and possibly
some other points ta which it is to
be hoped the other nations will read-
ily agree.”
It will not do for President Wilson
to set up his self-will against the
welfare of the world. It is his duty
to try to get a covenant acceptable
to his country. If he has the influ-
ence in Europe that it is given out
that he has he can bring about a
modified covenant should he desire to
do so. It will then be the province
‘of the Senate to pass on its final
form,
‘A SAMPLE TO START
Already the league of nations pact
is proving the basis of trouble in-
stead of peace. Japan has insisted
that the league will never function
er else lead to war, unless she is
placed on an equal footing with the
other nations in the league. The sup-
poseid basis of the league is the equal-
ity of natiens. Men are to live in
harmény with one another, regardless
of race, creed or geographical posi-
tion. ‘Therefore, Japan insists fur-
ther that if the United States does
not waive racial discrimination now
it will not do so in the future, Nat-
uraly Japan could not be expected to
take. the position in good humor that
the “white” man is better than the
yellow, any more than the “whites”
could be expected to-agree to the op-
posite view-point. And since ‘the
very rib from which the pact has
sprung is the equality of nations
there can be no race discrimination
without trouble. The Japanese del-
egates have been well schooled as to
just what is expected from them in
Paris. Unless they are succesful in
‘their atempt to include an amend-
‘ment which will insure the equality
of nations without distinction as to
ee ea dessliy lee meen the
refusal of Japan to join the league,
which will mean in other words, war.
‘Therefore, we see at the very outset,
‘before the plan is but a few weeks
‘old, dissension arising from the inter-
pretation of its articles. The United
States can’ ill afford to have the
slightest hint of trouble with the Jap-
‘anese Empire. It is well that we pur-
sue the well tested policies of the past
in dealing with her on all subjects. So
far, relations between the United
States and Japan have been more than
friendly, A calamity it would be in-
deed, to have the league of nations the
cause for trouble between the two
countries. Hands off! Let us keep
within our boundaries where there arc
problems enough to be solved. Japan
fought with the allies during the
great war. How many Japanese
troops were there on the western
front? What was the reason for
this? We do not question but that
there was some good reason and yet
there comes word from authoritative
sources that “all is not gold that glit-
ters.” Shortly after the signing of
the armistice Representative Alvan
T. Fuller, of Massachusetts, took an
extensive trip to Europe. On the trip
across he talked with M. Delanney,
French ambassador to Japan. Mr.
Fuller asked the ambassador if the
Japanese were sincerely pro-ally to
which he replied, “ No, sir,” and in-
quired, “Who in the world thought
they were sincerely pro-ally?” Mr.
Fuller states further that Japan was
going to support Germany until she
learned after her commission had been
to this country, how extensively we
were going into the fight, and was
then afraid to do so. Delaney’
likened the Emperor and the military
caste of Japan to that of Germany
and that their methods and ideas and
ideals were identical with those of |
Germany. If there is even a hint of
truth in such information as this (and |
the source cannot be doubted) would
it not be better to avoid entangling
alliances with nations. which seeming. |
ly hang on the fence to see which way |
the wind is going and then go that
way, regardless of right or wrong?
At least, there is food for thought—
thought which it would do well for
American peace conferees to indulge |
in during their leisure moments |

REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING
While it is true that occasional ad-
voutising will bring: extra Dusinoss, it
is equally true that constant, persist-
ent advertising will keep , business
growing during “dull days.”
‘The merchant who considers riches
a burden should never advertise. His
store may be like a summer resort in
January. Do YOU advertise?
The merchant who never advertises
under any circumstance or condition
may imagine he is wise, but his cam.
potitors have no desire to disturb his
Imagination. It's a good time to “get
maake?
Arthur Geode, 813th Pioneer Infan-
try, brother of Mys. Mattie Pierson,
is still in France and in the best of
health. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Smith,
E. 90th St., entertained in honor of
Mrs. Madeline Carter-Hawkins, prima
donna pianist: Also Mrs. Robert
Gregory, E. 93d Ste and Mr. and Mrs,
Pierson, E. 4d St, who gave a din-
ner in hex honor. She sang beautiful-
ly at Antioch church and left for a
recital in Columbus. She will appear
soon under the auspices of the Pleas-
ant Company club. Dr. and Mrs.

But for their activity, especially on the part of Mr. Mack, they would never have gotten a dollar back. And yet many of them are consuming the two gentlemen mentioned instead of praising and thanking them, SHAME!
The 370th Inf., "Old Eighth Illinois" regiment band, gave a concert and dance at Dreamland. Tuesday evening, which attracted about 2000 people. Madame Anita Patti Brown of Chicago, the soprano soloist, and two members of the band, tenor and cornet soloists, rendered a number of fine selections. The concert selections and dance music furnished by the band surpassed the expectations of the most sanguine. The affair was an artistic, terpsichorean and financial success.

Wm. Connor and Major John C. Fulton, constitute the welfare subcommittee, according to Mr. Conner, which is to call on Garrett Morgan to get the money, estimated to be between fifty and $1,000 tossed in the
large flag for the soldier boys on the occasion of the parade in this city of the "Old Ninth Battalion" on Feb. 22. There were two conferences called but the committee, it seems, were so slow in assembling that Morrison tossed into the flag should be turned over to the soldiers or to whatever organization they have or will designate, to use for their benefit.
OH, KIDDIES HOBBY HORSE
AUTOMOBILE IS INVENTED.
Big Motor Truck With Gorgeous Prancing Ponies, Music and Seats in Rear for Adults.
Dr. Frank Loder of Lafayette, Ind., has been granted a patent on an invention which he calls the hobby horse automobile. For three years Dr. Loder has been working on the machine, which he claims will supplant the merry-go-round. The idea for the new invention was suggested to Dr. Loder by his daughter, Bonnie Loder, a few years ago, after she had taken a ride on a merry-go-round.
Shucked her father why he did not invent an automobile with hobby horses on it and since that time the inventor has been working on the device. He succeeded in perfecting the amusement machine a few months ago and experienced no trouble in securing a patent. The hobby horses will be placed on an automobile truck and the truck will accommodate twenty-door persons. The driver of the machine will also operate a device that will cause the horses to gallop. In the rear of the automobile there will be seats for the mothers of the children who are on the galloping horses.
The horses are operated by a system of gears. The power is taken from the motor and drives the car. The horses will remain still or will operate fast or slow as desired. The car and horses operate independently of each other if desired. The hobby-horse automobile has all the attractive features of the merry-go-round. It has music, gorgeous jewelled-studded horses, brass trimming and colored lights for night riding. The price for riding can be made small. It is made safe as there is a brass railing and heavy screen around the top platform to prevent children from falling off.
Older people like to have an excuse to ride with the children and the hobby-horse automobile should prove very popular at parks, fairs, outdoor amusement places and on the street.
It is expected the hobby-horse auto will sell from $1,500 to $10,000, according to size and furnishings.
ORIGIN OF GRAIN AS MEASURE.
Established by Statute in England in Year 1266
The grain, as a measure of weight, has its name from being originally the weight of a grain of wheat. A statute passed in England in 1266 ordained thirty-two grains of wheat taken from the middle of the ear and well dried, should make a pennyweight, twenty of which should make an ounce, twelve ounces were to make a pound. The pound therefore, consisted then of 7,680 grains. But several centuries later the pennyweight was divided in to twenty-four grains, which made the troy pound of 5,760 grains. The pennyweight was the exact weight of a silver penny. The standard grain was prescribed by Act of Parliament in the reign of George IV.

EXPLAIN WHAT TREATMENT
SOIL NEEDS 2
Clay Field Plowed Soon After Rain is
Sahil tan: Phew.
eee ees re ee
Experts are digging information out
‘of the ground and furnishing it to the
citizens of the country who depend
upon the land for a livelihood, Just
as the farmer is “learning to plow
deep” and is applying this rule even
to clay, he must be shown that he
must use care or he will spoil his
land says the lustrated World maga
xine, The experiment station of the
University of Wisconsin, working
with {is own farms in various parts
of the state, has been telling what
treatment is good and what is bad
in regard to different soils. ‘The state
presents so many different kinds ot
soil that almost every type may be
examined. Clay must be plowed
deeply but gradually. The organic
matter and bacteria necessary to plant
growth are only on the surface of
this kind of soil, and if they are bur
fed deep in plowing, the land will Le
‘breatly injured.
‘As to clay several truths are ex
pounded by the men who have tried
out. everything that science has at t=
command. In the first, place, such
foil should be cleared with the ail
of dynamite. Surface drainage anil
even tile drainage is important be
cause too much moisture is worse than
not enough.
Clover. and peas should be grown
occasionally and sometimes turned
under to provide humus for the soit,
and as. with other soils, crop rotation
is tmportant, with a four or five year
program.
Plow a field of clay too soon after
arain and it is injured for years to
come. The great lumps soon bake to
the consistency of bricks and thre
or four years of cultivation are nee
essary before the soil of the fieid will
return to normal.
With marsh oils, draindze of
course, {s all important, but the chem
feal composition of the land is at
most as much so. Such ground usu
ally has a great supply of nitrogen
Fut lacks the components, phosphorus
and. potassium, which should be sup:
Plied by commercial fertilizers
Barnyard manure has the required
elements, but 9s it also contains n
trogen, economy can he practiced by
saving {t for upland pasuures if they,
too, form some part of the farm. Fux
the opposite from the clay, marsh
land needs heavy rolling for best pr
Auotion and when it is propeity han
died, the black soil will produce cor,
Bolom tar. Puckwheat, “ete,
‘great quantities.
‘The acidity of such ground need noi
bother the, farmer usually if he ha
properly fertilized it, though in ex
treme instances it is advisable to nev
tralize the acid nature by a thin layer
‘of,limestone spread upon tie soil be
fore plowing.”
Sandy soil presents problems of
how to make it hold moisture and of
how to prevent blowing. Long nar
row fields in grass and cultivates
crops alfernately, will save siands ©
farm produce which would otherwise
be ruined. Vegetable maiter should
be added to them to aid in water hole!
ing and to provide for additions” fer
tility.
‘As sand has only one this! to one
half the fertility of clay loams, it
must be watched carefully and crops
rotated to produce results comparabls
‘with those from other soils. Ease of
putting sandy '>-~» under cultivation
is, its saying grace with the addition
of manure as needed such fields be-
ome almdst as valuable as other
kinds.
Of course in agdition to general
maxims, the expériment stations give
apecitic advice and the farmer who
fs wprved by them can have his soil
analyzed and his crops planned for
him. Perhaps tis is the best way
‘of attacking high food prices.
