WHERE IT COMES FROM.
The entire supply of nitrate of soda,
such an important salt for fertilizer
purposes,i comes from the western coast
of Chile. It extends in a narrow strip
of land running north and south for
' about 260 miles, at an average distance
of about 14 miles from the ocean. The
country where it is found is a desert;
' it never rains there, and the whole re
gion is bare of vegetation and destitute
of water. ,
.About all the available lands in Flor
ida arc being worked, and the business
is being simplified by getting Into the
hands of fewer persons yearly. More
phosphate goes through Port J ampa
titan any other point in the state, it Is
shipped in crude state, right out of the
mines, to Cartaret, New Jersey, Baltl-
mcro and other points, where it is
converted into fertilizer, which goes to
Germany, England, Austria, Japan, Aus
tralia. and almost every foreign country.
Vessels "from 'Philadelphia, Baltimore
and Norfolk bringing coal and railroad
Iron to Galveston, take back raw phos
phate and foreign vessels also load here
with the crude material, which is carried
direct to European countries.
Boadlng the phosphates by means of
the Hunt elevator is truly a wonderful
show of mechanical labor. 'After the
rock is loaded into the cars if. is not
t ached by hands. The self-unloading
cats are used, which dump tin* phosphate
into a pit from which it is picked up by
endless buckets and elevated to a height
of 90 feet and conveyed through a chute
into the hatch of the vessel, and "trim
med" or leveled, all by machinery. The
link belt elevator, run by electricity, uses
1 rty men in loading a ship. The Hunt,
which is steam, loads a ship in one day
with only an engineer, fireman and three
helpers.
The phosphate is hauled in covered
oars. To allow it to get wet would
ho to lose it. It is ruined tv- water.
The fertilizer business is an increasing
one, and will continue to grow with
the agricultural interests of the south.
To estima>■ its increa.-ing use. take the
state of Georgia. In the year 1874-1875
tl ere was used here only 48.648 tons,
while for the year 1902-1903 the number
of tons consumed in Georgia was ap
proximately 600,OOu, an increase of 551.-,
353 in twenty-eight years.
As before stated, it is a matter of im
possibility for the many fertilizers claim
ing to be bone really to he that. But
as the trade knows what it wants, and
what it is getting—commercial fertili
zer made from phosphate rock—it mat
ters little which one is chosen out of
the 735 brands offered by the manufac
turers in the market.
S6c Cultivation of Sorghum
For iSyrup and Forage
CONTINUED FROM SECOND PAGE.
these two articles to give more than a
general outline of the improved methods
of manufacturing sorghum sirup and
raising the plant for grain and forage,
hut enough can he told to awaken an In
terest in those who desire to make a su
perior sirup that will create a larger de
mand nit* * consequently higher prices. The
tendency'of nil the modern manufacturers
of sirups is towards Increasing complex
methods. Competition is the life of trade,
and for this reason each manufacturer
tries to make his own sirup better than
any other: This striving results in more
careful work and In more complex ways
of doing it. The manufacturers of glu
cose and of golden sirups use ten or more
processes. The very fact that tip to the
present sorghum sirup Is made by a few
simple processes is proof conclusive that
its manufacture has not reached the
highest possible point of perfection.
The work of betterment in the making
of sorghum sirup is still going on, and
there is no doubt that a high degree of
ptrfection will yet be attained, and sor
ghum sirup take rank with maple and
other fancy high priced sirups for ta
ble use. That it will pay to use as
much care in its manufacture as In that
of other sirups lias been proven already.
Many of the processes now employed tn
sirup manufacture were at first tested in
a small way, using the juice from a
hand mill. Succeeding in this way, the
process was tested again by horse pow
er, such as is described by our Alabama
correspondent, anil success being again
attained, by repeated trials, steam power
was finally enlisted for the ,same pur
pose, or. a much larger scale. This is
the history of till the great Improvements
in sirup making, whether of the ordinary
sugar < ane or of sorghum cane. Forty-
four states and territories produce more
or less of sorghum sirup. The best is
produced where the growing season is
neither very wet nor very dry. rite
(*arly amber is the variety usually pre
ferred for early maturing cane. As a
matter of fact, sorghum has been grown
for years without any extended selection
of varieties, the one over the otner.
The reason for this anomaly is tiie
varying amount of impurities in the juice
from one year to another. A variety
that produces fine sirup one season and
then is largely planted for the next sea
son ’.n;i y the second time yield a very
I>oor sirup. If planted early the sirup
may be all that could be desired.
if planted late it may give poor sirup,
in Lite same season, and In tlie same
soil, and yet in both instances the yield
of juice may be ample. It is the amount
of impurities in the juice that controls
tile result in the ordinary process ot si
rup making. It’ these natural vegetable,
impurities are not thoroughly removed
from the juice, the part that remains
mixed with tiie sirup will make it dark
and cloudy. Note the reference made by
our correspondent to the "very dark
sirup." If tile juice is naturally pure,
the sirup will be also. This variable
quality of sorghum sirup will continue
until Us manufacturers learn bow to re
move or eliminate the cause of the va
riations It is this weighty problem
that our agricultural department has
set itself to solve, and lias already suc
ceeded in doing so to a great extent.

variably gives a good sirup, for quieg
growth means favorable weather, and
that in turn means a naturally pm e
juice and . pure sirup. Wnen sorghum
canes are allowed to become over ripe,
their unfitness for making sirup in
creases in exact proportion to this cv»r-
ripeness.
MUCH TO BE DONE.
During a period of eight > •. ;r; the
agricultural department devotee, its chief
investigations of tiie sorghum s rup ques
tion to the testing of hundreds of va
rieties of sorghum, in tiie search for
one that would give urifortniy a pure
juice like that of the sugar cane. But
the effort was not sue ta-tUel. and for
the last three years the*e studies have
been turned In the direction of finding
a means of sen ■-r,» ting the excess '4 ttn
purities that are of sorghum juice, so
as to make it as pure as the juice ct
tiie -sugar ca.io is by nature. While
nun'll has bee' dh».e in lilts dire* tit u
tiie good work is still going steadily on
wards.
Sound, unmlxed seed of a good variety
must be secured as tho first step. Of
these varieties the nest for sirup are
tiie Early Amber, the Collier and the
Col man. The Early Amber is the ear
liest of them all. the Collier is some
what later, but l s rich in sugar, ai d trie
Colman produces good juice, thicker and
shorter canes, and more seed than the
others, the latter an important item, for
serghum seed is a valuable product.
Every maker of sorghum sirup should
save the best heads of the varieties
that experience shows are best suited
to his location, and put them In a
shock. The seeds will cure well in this
manner, if protected from birds and
from stock, both of which are fond of
raising sorghum seeds, after an approved
fashion of their own. When quite dry,
a dozen or more of the heads should be
put in a stout bag, and pounded with a
club. This simple process will thresh
out the seeds in a few moments. To re
move the chaff, take the seeds where tho
wind can reach them and then pour
them from one pan to another, shaking
the pans to bring the stems and heavy
trash to the surface. Good, unmixed
seed of the desired variety cun be se
cured by the planter without expense,
and that, too, better and cleaner than
he can often uuy.
A bushel of sorghum seed weighs 56
pounds. One pound and a half is enough
tc plant an acre. It is very important
not to mix the several varieties in plant
ing. because some kinds ripen in three
and some in four months. If cut at the
same time, as, of course, they must be
if sowed together, some kinds will be
ripe, others too ripe, and still others
not ripe enough. Besides this, some va
rieties of sorghum grow tall, while
others short. In harvesting both to
gether, when the seed heads are topped
off, some of the latter will be left on
the short stalks and will pass through
the rollers, injuring the sirup. This is
why the sorghum grower, when he can,
should preserve his own seed, so as to
be absolutely sure of wltat he is getting.
It does not do to plant the seeds too
thickly. Close plantin gives less juice,
by stunting the growth, and causes great
Injury if there happens to be a drought
as the intertwining roots sap moisture
from each other. Careful culture and
keeping ahead of the weeds will give
a much larger yield of cane, and a
better quality of juice than the same
quality of plants will yield if only half
taken care of.
Sorghum cane should be harvested
when it is ^tctly at the right stage,
not when it is most convenient, at which
latter time the canes may be overripe,
or else green and immature. If the
very best results are desired, the ratio
must bo cut at the proper stage of
maturity, neither more af less. The
seed heads should be cut carefully from
the stalks, and not allowed to get Into
the juice, even in small quantities, for
the seeds have properties of their own
that are not conducive to good sirup-
making. Good dyes can be made from
the sorghum seed h alls, and starch from
the seeds themselves, and no purchaser
wants dyes and starch injected into his
sirup. Care should also be taken to
carry only good, sound stalks to the
mill. If weeds, broken canes and suck
ers are allowed to go into tiie mill, a
poor, dark sirup will inevitably be the
result.

M RETRACTION.
(From July Number “Ladies’ Home
Journal.")
Tn tiie May number of The Ladles’
Home Journal we published in the article
entitled "The ‘Patent-Medicine’ Curse."
an analysis of “Doctor Pierce’s Favorite
1'rescription,” in which that preparation
was represented as containing, among
other incredients, tincture of digitalis,
tincture of opium, and alcohol. Imme
diately upon publication of the number a
suit for damages was instituted by The
It. V. Pierce Medical Comi any, of Buffa
lo, New York, proprietors of the prepa
ration in question, against The Curt’s
Publishing Company, based upon the
claim that none of the throe ingredients
was contained in the medicine.
Upon the filing of the suit, we, of
course, immediately looked into the pub
lished analysis. It appears that this par
ticular analysis had been made. If made
at all. fully twenty-five years ago. tv?
thereupon employed three leading chem
ists in different cities to makp an analy
sis of the preparation from bottles bought
in the open market. These analyses, one.
and all now show to us conclusively that
not a single one of the ingredients men
tioned by us in the analysis quoted—that
is, either digitalis, opium or alcohol—was
contained In the bottles analyzed. Wo
then—the President of this Company and
the writer—personally visited The R. V.
Pierce Medical Company, at Buffalo, and
were there convinced that the officers of
the Company were absolutely truthful in
their claim that not one of these injurious
Ingredients was contained in “Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription.” Natu
rally. since the analysis we printed has
been proved erroneous, the deductions
made in connection with this preparation
were unwarranted and unfounded.
Under thesp circumstances it is now
perfectly plain to us that this magazine
was unintentionally, but nevertheless ab
solutely misled in making the original
statement, and vre hereby, of our own
volition, make this unqualified acknowl
edgment of our mistake to The R. V.
Pierce Medical Company and to our read
ers.
The mistake was honestly made, but

recently combated by J. I*.
Crum, chief inspector in
_ the New York postoffiee.
fl ^ l!lat llP
-B never met an employee of
the department who pos
sessed this gift or accom
plishment. "The sense of
touch," says Mr. Crum,
undoubtedly may be developed to a mar
velous extent, but I am much inclined
to doubt whether it can he brought to
that degree of delicacy requisite to dis
tinguish a bank note from ordinary pa
per inclosed in an envelope. You sec.
money usually is wrapped in several folds
of paper and then carefully soiled in an
envelope. 'J’o suppose that a postal clerk
can fee! the bill through these various
thicknesses of tiie writing paper is about
as absurd as that story that some clerks
could tell the denomination of a bill.
"J cnee read a remarkable story to the
effect that a dishonest postal clerk had
so keen a sense of touch that he never
rifled a letter unless it contained $10
bills or notes of larger denomination.
You might as well say a clerk could tell
whe_n there is money in a letter by smell
ing it.
"There" are dishonest meu in the
service, but mighty few when you ap
preciate the fact that there arq 200.000
persons employed in the department and
the millions of tons of mail matter han
dled.
"When letters are opened the proba
bilities are that the clerk takgs a chance
on finding money in it, or knows that the
person or firm it ls addressed to Is in
thi 4 habit of receiving money through the
mails, such as dry goed.s houses, pub
lishers. ete. We had a case recently of a
publishing house which complained that
its mail was being rifled constantly. All
the clerks through whose hand, it pass
ed were closely watched, and all sorts
of traps were set for them. but. although
the thefts continued, our efforts were
without result and our mvstificati n was
complete. The mystery wn.-n't solved un
til we discovered that the thefts were
taking place in the office of the publish
ing house itself, the thieves being its
-.,"n employees.
"As many letters are stolen outright as
are rifled and repealed. It is as easy
to detect one class of offenders as an
other. Naturally, it is impossible to pre
vent thefts altogether, but it is a part
of our duty to advise postmasters as 11
methods whereby losses and depredations
c i bc^tt be traced, and it is growing in-
l ■.r,'\i.singiy difficult for a man in the
department to steal and escape detection.
THEFTS OF REGISTERED MAIL.
"When thefts of registered mail take
place it is owing usually to the fact that
a package ar letter has been piaeed in
the wrong pouch and thus diverted from
tiie proper course. Tn such cases it falls
into the hanijs of a man who has not
given a receipt for It and if he is in
clined to steal there Is his chance.
“The government provides an indem
nity ot $25 for the loss of a registered .
letter or package. In cases where the
loss of a registered letter or package is
due to the carelessness of a clerk or to
Ills violation of any of the regulations
he has to settle. But if tiie pfiece is de
stroyed by fire or stolen by burglars the
government itself foots the bill.
“One of the most puzzling cases the
postoffice inspectors ever had to handle
took place a f#w years ago when the
Canadlan-Amerlcan mail was steadily
robbed during a period ot several months.
No pouches ever failed to reach their
destinations and this made it impos
sible to tell whether the depredations
took place in the mailing or distributing
offices Tn Canaria, on the Canadian mail
train, at the transfer office in Detroit,
on the American postal cars, or in the
office of destination.
“The thefts were causing an immeas
urable amount of trouble, inconvenience
and business complications on both sides
of the border and the postoffice inspec
tors spent months of hard work, anxie
ty and worry. .Many plans were formed
• .-.i expel,’ nexus made to catch the
thief, but all were futile.
"Finally when about every theory that
had been formed a« to the loss of the
mail had been exhausted, an inspector
happened to notice that a pouch used in
yellow thread which was quite unlike
the Canadian-American mail had in it a
the kind that had originally entered into
its cepstruction.
"Tiie inspector examined the thread
closely and found that it extended along
a sf.qjn. suggesting that the bag had
been ripped open and sewed up again for
a distance that would just about admit
the passage nf a package of letters. The
work was very deftly done, and in all
likelihood would have escaped observa
tion had it not been for the yellow
thread. No such thread was used in th •
government icpair shops, and slender a;
ciew was i; undoubtt 1 wss a clew.
"It was followed for rgonths Postal
clerks were- tpsted and watched win
flight have an have an opportunity to
rjp open the bag. and a close watch
wes kept out for a man with yellow
thread. Suspicion finally narrowed down
to Harry Lara wry, a clerk in the trans
fer office in Detroit, who had easy ac
cess to the mail, which still continued
to be rifled. An inspector made a quiet
search of hi; rooms end clothing and
found therein many ravelings of yellow
(bread.
“'That settled it. The,next night the in
spector bored a hole under the floor of
the mail room in the Detroit station and
crawled in. From this place of conceal
