BULLETIN ON COIION SOILS.
Agricultural Department lssues “Fer
titizer for Cotton Soils.”
Washingten, D. C.—Bulletin No, 62,
entitled “Fertilizers for Cotton Soils,”
by Professor Milton Whitney, chief
of the bureau of soils, has becen is
sued by the department of agricul
ture. . The purpose of the bulletin is
« 10 show what fertilizers are best adap
ted to cotton soils and the eftect of
certain -fertilizers on the crop yiclds
of cotton. The builetin goes into tech
nical details of an experiment made
in analyzing fertilizers in relation to
the yields of crops on cotton soils. In
the preface Professor Whitney says:
“In order to establish certain funda
mental principles regarding the effect
and efliciency of fertilizers on cotton
soils I have had compiled all the
p available results of plat tests with
| fertilizers on cotton soils which have
been carried out by the experiment
stations. It is believed that this mat
ter will be of considerable interest to
the farmers of the south.” !
In summing up Professor Whitney
says::
“The chances for increase in crop!
v oduciion, are greater with two or |
three ' fertilizers mixed than with & |
single substance and a larger increase ‘
gives inv géneral a larger financiall
gain. The increase in yield due tO‘
mixtures of minerals approximates an |
additive effect, the increase due toj
mixtures being approximately equalto
the sum of the increases due to indi~}
vidua! fertilizers. It appears that the
smaller applications of single fertili-l
zers—manure, cempose and eommer
oial fertilizers—have given in general |
no less an increase than the largerj
amounts. The increases obtained
from the more productive soils based |
upon the yields of uunfertilized plats!
appears to be no less than from the
less productive soils, indicating anl
equal increase in crop for the same .
quantity of fertilizers used for the
good soils as for the less productive
soils, : |
“As the -results have been obtained
from a large number of soils with a.}
considerable range of productivity over
a number of years, these general con
clugions, besides others of a qualita
tive value which can be drawn from
the tables, can, in the absence of any
, more specific knowledge of any par-.
tieular fertilizers, be safely followed
as a guide to the immediate selection
of fertilizers for cotton soils.” |
STRANGE MURDER VERDICT.
Paris Jury Concedes the Right to Take
Liss to End Suffering.
Paris, France.—A jury in the assiz
es court has conceded at least tacitly,
the right to take life in order to end
hopeless suffering. A workman by
the name of Baudin surrendered to
the police some time ago, saying he
had shot his wife at her request in
order to put her out of pain.
He was arraigned on the charge of
murder. The evidence showed that his
wife wos incurably diseased and sufe
sered continuously and intensely. She
» appealed ropeatedly to her husband to
kill her. Hg finally yielded and shot
her with a revolver,
It also was shown that Baudin was
a man o® weak will, who was. domi
nated by his wife. The jury acquit
ted him. 1

For the pains of rhcumatism there
is nothing that can equal
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills,
They overcome that nervous irri
tation, relieve the pain and swelling,
while they have a tendency to aliay
fever. If taken as directed they are
invaluable to chronic suffercrs, as
the weakening effect of pain is less
