THE SENTINEL. n CASTOR IA Tor InfiuiH a^u Children. ft# KM You Hph Alrap Bought The memorial to Mary Balter Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Chris tian Science, erected in Mt. Auburn Cemetery at Cambridge, Mass., has been turned over to The Christian Science Board of Directors by Elbert S. Barlow of New York, who had charge of its construction. Over a year-And a half has been required to complete it. Christian Scientists throughout the world have contributed, as expressions of sentiment, the entire cost of over $150^000. The memorial is of Bethel white granite and consists of an open circu lar colonnade of eight columns fifteen feet in height surmounted by a cornice am\ cresting. The space inside the colonnade is to be filled with growing flowers. Thj columns rest cn a stylo bate of three steps, which also rest, at one side, on a broad platform of Pompton pink granite and, at the other, which is about five feet lower, on a double.flight of ciFSttler 3tGjXs. These lire fiahked on each side by a large pylon. The pylons were exhib ited a short time ago at the American Institute of Architecture in New York, 8iid were pronounced by several ex perts to be the finest pieces of ckrved granite ever executed. The detail is elaborated to an extent never before attempted in granite; some of the stems and leaves are pracUcally free standing, so great is the relief. Interviewed regarding the memorial, the architect, Mr. Egerton Swart^Out of New York, said: “The site is singularly pleasing; in fact, I question whether a finer site could anywhere be found. It can be seen from ail sides equally well, close at*hand from the cemetery road, and from a quarter of a mile away across the lake. Indeed, it is“ this body of water which forms the chief beauty of the site. There is a drop of approximately 10 feet from the level of the road to the level of the lake, there being a natural terrace on the axis of the plot which lends itself admirably to the architectural development of the memorial. The lake is unusually still, and has a mirror-like quality which .reflects ad mirably the white granite of which the memorial is made. “As to the memorial I think It can be said without contradiction that*, leaving aside entirely any artistic ex cellence, such perfection and delicacy have never been attained before^ in this unyielding and enduring jnatqriftl., Therg. is- certainly nothing in modern. Times that can approach it nor, as far as I know, in any of the monuments of antiquity. - Mr. Swartwout. designed the new Missouri State capitol and the new Federal Building in Denver, and re cently won the competition for the new George Washington memorial.. All that now remains to be done to complete the memorial to Mrs. Eddy is the planting for the landscape, which is to consist chiefly of some- e\ergreen plants that will preserve ' their form and leaves throughout the year, and some cedars and rhododen drons. Better Farming in the South Permanent Influence Of Fertilizers On Southern Soils Feeding the Plant the Real Purpose Developing the Resources of the Soil Secondary “How has he done It?” was asked. “It has been the practice of this farmer to put on his land the amount of fertilizer that he could purchase with the proceeds of the sale of his cotttm seed from thid|same*land. Of course, this farmer could have grown his cotton more economically had ho grown it in rotation with other crops. Loss Through Leaching “Sandy soils naturally erode and leach readily. Phosphoric acid does not leach away ,but remains in the top twelve inches of soil till, it is used by the plant. Potash will wash out of sandy soils to a limited extent, but “In recent years soil fertility has come to be look ed upon in a new light. Soils are no longer spoken of as being rich simply because chemical analysis shows that they contain a b u n d a n c e of plant food. Much of this plant food may be locked up not get at it. J. N. HAW,PER, Agronomist, so that plants cun be available plant food must be In soluble form; that is, it must dissolve in the soil water and change into just the form that the plant can U3e for Its grewth," says Professor Harper. “In fact,” he continues, “a chemical analysis may show that a soil has lit tle total food content, but that little may often have iplant food in a more available form than the richer soil, and, as a consequence, will produce greater yields. “Most of the soils of the South have been formed from granite rocks which have decayed or crumbled into parti cles. Soils derived from granites con tain considerable’ sand. Such soils are found very extensively in the re gion east of the# Mississippi river. “Can these sandy loam soils of the South be made to produce abundant- crops? “The answer is ‘Yes.* Proof is pro vided from the experience of thou sands of farmers. They won through proper farm management and fertili zation. Many farmers of the South are today getting a bale of cotton to the acre where they once got only one- third of a bale. They are producing from 6t) to 75 bushels of corn on the same land which a few years ago pro duced only 15 to 20 bushels. “What is the secret of their suc cess? “Is it in the change in the methods of cultivation? There has been con siderable Improvement in this respect “Has it been due to deeper plowing? This has been a help. “Is it due to crop rotation? The right kind of rotation is beneficial. “What then Is the great reason? It is this, the plants have been fed bet ter and they have responded with bet ter yields. In other words, It came about through proper fertilization, “A successful Southern fanner, whom the writer knows well, is now producing a bale of cotton to the acre on land which twenty-five years ago was’ producing only one-third of a bale. He has constantly grown cotton on this land. Yet In spite of this, he has Increased yields. with clay soils it is practically all available. The nitrates, on the other hand, cannot long be retained by the soil. It is soluble in water and there fore leaches out with every heavy rain. Winter Cover Crops Help “When a field is left bare through the winter months, sometimes more than 40 pounds of nitrogen is leached .rom an acre. It will take ^600 pounds of cottonseed meal per acre to replace this loss of nitrogen. If the farmer plants a cover crop such as rye, crim son clover or bur clover, the greater portion of this nitrogen will be re tained and become available for the succeeding crop.” TO MAKE COTTON FRUIT BETTER J. C. Pridmore, Agronomist Inquiry—"My cotton produces plen ty of weed, but fruits poorly. What fertilizer would correct this? From the knowledge of plant nutri tion as it is understood at the pres ent time, it appears that you have a soil containing a fairly good supply of nitrogen, but deficient in phosphoric acid and potash. The element nitro gen is considered largely with the de velopment of vegetative parts of the plants, such as the stalk, stems and leaves. The phosphoric acid-Is respon sible to a large extent for the develop ment of the fruit, and the hastening ot thematurity of the plant. Potash gives general tone and vigor to the plant, and improves the quality of the fruit. The use of fertilizer will supply these plant food elements, and enable one to overcome these apparent soil defi ciencies. A material analyzing from % per cent to 2 per cent nitrogen, 10 per cent to 12 per cent phosphoric acid* and 1 per cent to '2 per cent potash, could be used profitably in such oases. Apply at the rate of three or four hundred poqnds per acre before the crop is planted, so that the plant can get fall benefit of the material early In its growth, especially under boll weevil conditions.
