WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 12. 1910 THE WEATHER ^ ington daily news FERTILIZERS, THEIR USES MID VALUES What Fertilizer to Buy How to Apply the Fertilizer Af ter the Soil Has Been Thorough ly Pulverized, and How to Buy . Them. COMMERCIAL PRODUCT Since the prime object in the use of *11 commercial fertilisers is to In crease production, they must be used either to supply plsnt food directly or to so act upon the soil that a larger quantity of lta nutritive elements will be at the disposal of the plant. In actual practice most commercial fer ? combine both^Mecta. All the nces required by plants except -nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and are' abundant 1 rf most soils, i chief function of nitrogen In i Is to promote growth, but. It Is 1 very great Importance In the ctlon of fralt. Nitrogen enters By Into the composition of plants t follows that everything of veg i origin la a valuable source of ubstance. When vegetable mat riTburned, the nitrogen Is released frow its combination and escapes In to Atiie atmosphere and Is lost. The forms most Important to the farmer of the South In which nitrogen Is available are yegctable matter, the droppings of. animals, cotton seed meal, bone mpat. nitrate of Boda, sul phate of ammonia, and the products of the ^daughter pen In what ia known kb tankage. Xexjfla Importance as a plant food !s phAphorlc acid. It Is largely re quired by 'the plant for growth, but 1b absolutely essential In the perfec tion of freed and Is a great factor In ? uMienimt me innmrm' oi cruu?. mg fortn of phosphoric . acid most acces sible to the farmer Is known as acid phosphate. Potash la. more directly effective in promoting frultable. but It Is rarely very deficient In soils, and especially In soils of the Oulf States. It Is iound In abundance In ashes. Com mercially It Is mqst cheaply obtained In the form of kalnlt. , .What Fertiliser to Buy. Since the lement of plant food al ready mentioned are required In dif ferent quantities by different plants \ and since the soils vary In their sup ply. It Is well for the farmer to know what bis soil- and plants need befqre Investing his money In fertilis ers. The practical way for the farm ? er to determine these facts la to ob nerve the growth of the plants on his land. If the plants grow rapidly and -make an abundance of. leaf and stalk, It Is evidence of a good supply of ni trogen. If there 1b not a proportion ate amount of fruit. It Is a sute Indi cation that the soli needs phoephorlc acl$. On the other hand. If the plant haa not a good color and tends to drop Its fruit before it reaches a fair ?Ise. It Indicates that the soil requires potash. Most of the soils of the South are deficient In both nitrogen and phos phoric acid, and some In potash. So When we buy commercial fertilisers We buy theig. for their content of these substances. If the farmer haa saved ali his manurea and has grown cowpeas abundantly, aa he should. -he . will rarely have to buy nitrogen. How to Boy Fertiliser. Commercial plant food, called "fertllser,- is never sold pure, but in combination with other substances. The substances with which it Is com bined are of po value to the farmer, but' simply, add to the -weight? The laws of nearly #11 of the Statea now require (bat on ?*ch aack of commer cial fertiliser shall be stamped Just what plant food it contains. ' This composition Is given In percentages, Which mfcans that In a hundred pounds of the fertiliser there are so many pounds of the particular Bub * stances. For example, a certain fer ' tlltser Is offered for sale on the sack of which Is branded the following: Nitrogen. S per cent. Soluble phosphoric acid. 6 percent. Reverted phosphoric acid. 4" per cent. , Available phosphoric acid, *0 per ^nt. Potash, 2 per cent.. Translated - Into terms of pounds, this means tl?t In a aack weighing 100 pounds there are ? * Three pounds of nitrogen. Six pounds .of soluble phospborlo ? acid. ' Four pounds . of reverted- ptnre1 pharlc acid. Ten pounds of available phosphoric NIGHT SCHOOL . TO BE STARTED Wil{ Commence by January 24. Badly Needed. ' - The Daily News Is glad to state' that efforts are now being made to establish a night school here, and un less nothing unforseen happens such a school will begin on January 24. The school will bo run three nights in the week.. Arrangements are now practically complete with the teach ers in the public schools for its es tabllshment. As yet the place where the school will be run Is not definitely decided, but thoBe interested can con fer either with the superintendent. Mr. N. C. Newbold, or Mrs. Katje Bonner or Miss I411ian Campbell. The school will be operated for both male and female. There are quite a number of youn^ men and ladles whouare compelled to work in the day. hence they are debarred the, privileges of attending the city schools, but if a night school can be run it will work to their advantage. The Dally News hopes the scheme will be a success for it is badly needed. '' FLOUR MILL STARTS. The Making of Flour Begun by Mr. Havens This Morning. The tanking of flour commenced at the Havens Grist snd Flour Mill this morning and. from now on will operate regularly. The capacity of this department ts-about -+0 barrels of flour per day. The samples of flour compare with any yet seen. The News expects to have something more to say of this mammoth manufacturing plant later on. HEIRESS STILL MISSING. Reports That Slio Has Keen Found Denied by Relatives. Philadelphia, 'Jan. 10. ? Although eleven days have elapsed since Ro berta de Janon, the 17-year-old heir ess. and Fderedick Cohen, the mid dle-aged waiter, disappeared from the <a^llerue-Stratford hotel, their nl^iiLjtiydb I ft in u luuiiiluie m."* tery. In spite of the many reports spread broadcast last week that the girl had been found, her relatives- still deny that 'the^ have yet - discovered any clue by which they can locate her. The police force having^un to the ground all possible out-of-to?^ clues are now working on the theory that the waiter and the girl are concealed in this city. ? A SHARP THJtlTST. Raleigh, 1^. C., Jan. 10. ? In charg-| ing the grand jury this morning for a| two weeks' term of Wake Superior] , court, Judge Charles M. Cook gave football a sharp passing thrust in treating' the' neceajity of punishing for- involuntary homtctde trr many cases. He declared football a brutal g&me and that players who kill or injure their fellows . while playing I ought to be made to Buffer punish ment tor their action. He also Insist- j ed that carelessness and other acts on I the part of railroads that bring about | death or serious Injury should be | punished in varying degrees, even toi | murder. RESIDENCE REPAIRED. Mr. C. H. Richardson is having his, residence on West Main street repair- j ed and a new porch erected. Mr. T.| J. Harding has the contract. bought, the purchaser secures nitro gen. 60 pounds; soluble phosphoric acid, 120 pdunda; reverted phos phoric acid, 80 pounds; and potash. 40 pounds. Notice that what is called "available" Is the sum of the soluble and tha__rever ted acid. In this fertilizer w^fbtain three things are of use-r-S^ounds of nitrogen, 10 pounds of phosphoric acid, and 2 pounds of potash to the hundred pounds. : If cotton' seed meal, acid phosphate and kainlt are used to make this fer-' tllizer, it will require the following quantities for one ton of the mixture: Cotton seed meal, 690 pounds. $26 per ton, 8.65; acid phosphate (15 per cent available). 1,108 pounds, $15 per ton, ^ 8.31; kainit, 202 r >unds, $12 per ton. $1.21. Total, 000 pounds; $18.17. Ammonia 'Is nothing but nitrogen In combination with another sub stance of no valuo. Inserting the ammonia In the formula is apt to 4b celve one who does not know the dis tinction. Remember that it is the pounds of plant food that are wanted, and not just.. a sack of staff the ma jority of which is of no yalue. . Taking acid phosphates as an ex ample, we find there is a great varia tion in composition. 8ome run as low aa 10 pounds of available phos phoric acid to 100 pounds, while oth ers contain" *s much as 14 to 15 pounds. As phosphoric acid generally at about 5 cents a pound, the GENERAL WML SENT UP BY THE MORS Gasolene Is No Good The Quality Is Poor and the Con testants Can't Extend Them selves?A Howl Against John O. Rockefeller. PAl'LHAM WILL FLY Lob Angeles, CaL. Jan. 11. ? The American aviators who are participat ing In the International aerial con teats here, sent up a general wall to daV against John D. Rockefeller's chief wealth producer ? gasoline. Olenn H. Curtlss declared he had been prevented from "extending him self" owing to the poor quality of the fluid furnished. Charlea F. Wll l*rd also laid his Inability to negoti ate the circuit of the course to poor gasolene, which heated his engine to such en extent that he was compelled to descend, and Charles K. Hamilton, who made a flight of only a short dis tance, uttered a similar complaint. It seems the great French ''bird man," Louis Paulham. stole a march on the Americans and Incidentally pulled down the first* prize ? $500 when he previously tested the quality of his gasoline and secured the best the market afforded before he at tempted any flighta. The Americans will follow his lead hereafter.

Ing. Seven contestants have entered this event. Cortlandt Field Bishop, president of the Aero Club of America, and vice president of the International aeronautic federation, 1b here and will represent those organizations at the meet and will certify to any rec ords which may be made. M. Paulham. the daring little French air-king, who'easily won the' flrst honors, declares that he Intends to break the height, distance and du-| ration during the present meet and that he will make France proud of! him. "It Is not so much' the prizes as the' sport of the thing that- attracted me to Los Angeles." he said. "I fly and forget everything elBe. When ij watched Curtlss In his great epeed. I j could not but admire him. He Is a true sportsman. I know Curtlss will! do his best. He will eclipse himself In this fine meet and bis name Will be cabled to Paris and all over the world, vyhat will .1 do? Ma fol, prance will' be proud of me, I hope, as America will be of Monseur Cur tlss." ERROR CORRECTED. The Dally N'ews gladly corrects the error that appeared in yesterday's paper to. the effect that the grocery business of Mr. Andrew a had gene Into the hands of a reo<Arer. This was rumored on the streetd^and the paper representative was so Inform ed. Mr. Andrews Is confined to his room with rheumatism. His Tnany friends wish top film a speedy recov ery.

MINSTREL SHOW FAILS TO PLEASE Barlow & Wilson Perforov^ Disappointiitf^v^ Barlow and V O irilnstreU al the opera houae^rlAk" night was any thing but satisfactory. The show has certainly dopreciatod since its last ap pearance in Washington. Mr. Bar low, if eliminated from the perform ance, would have no show ? he seems to ue the whole thing. While the au dience was i^mall. those who did at lend expected something more up-to-' date than was given them. The Jokes were stale, the song* poorly rendered, and the specialties far below the av erage. The aggrega^on is not' what it is "cracked-up" to be and is sadly lacking In those requisites that go to make a first-class performance. Our people expected a better show, but were disappointed. Of course there were some features that were fair, hut the show as a whole 1b not worth the price of admission.

IS FAGINB A SERIOUS CRISIS Future Is Concerned The Opinion Is Held on All Sides that the Republican Party Now Faces a Serious Situation? The ^"Mouses Are Divided. j CHANGE OF OPINION Washington, Jan. 11. ? On all sides tn Washington the opinion is held that the Republican party 1b facing a crisis and a serious one. The state of feeling between what are known as regular Republicans In the Senate and House, on the one hand, and in* surgents, or 6elf-styled, progressives of the Congress, on the other. Is In tense. The Taft administration has not taken a definite stand as between the two factions, but predictions are be ing made that it cannot long defer a declaration, and confidence Is felt that It will throw its Influence to the side of the regulars. More than the personal fortunes of President Taft Is involved in the slt uatlon. The future of the party it self is held to be concerned. It Is a house divided against itself, or, more literally, with sole application to con gress condition^, two houses, each di vided against itrelf. Then there is the otiicr house ? the white, house -to be reckoned with. The insurgent movement is wide spread in the West. Its advocates in Ihe national congress are seeking to obtain recognition and victory by combinations with uhe JJemocrats. They have gained some advantage in the House of Representatives by such combinations. All this la at the ex-' l>ense oi harmony. That President Taft has undergone some? change? of opinion iiv? regard to who are hla friends and who are not among the; Republicans in Congress is generally believed. He is reluo tant to take sides In the congress sit uation, but it is realized that party reasons and a sense of loyalty to Lhose who are standing by him may compel him to do so.
