p The Origin of Roystcr Rrtilizcrs.
Mr. Hoyster believed that success awaited the
. Manufacturer of Fertilizers who would place quality,
above other considerations. This was Mr. Royster's
idea Twenty-seven years ago and this is his idea
to-day: he result has been that it requires Eight
Factories tosupply thedemand for Royster Fertilizers.

Champ Clark Declares That The
World is Growing Better.
Declaring that be is aa optimist,
autl that he believes tne world is
growing betttr, Representative
Ubanip Ulark ot Missouri, bpeaker.
elect of tbe next House of Kepre
sentatives at WasbiDgUoD, delivered
a uie8sagt "of hope aad courage" in
an address recently before tbe Young
Men's Christain Association at
Springfield, Massachusetts.
If the world were not growing
better Mr. Clark said, then tbe
school 8 stem, about which Amen
ca boasts and which costs so much
was an ignominious failure and all
religion was a failure, and he did
not believe either to be true. Why
so many good jeople believe the
world is growing worse was explain'
ed by Mr. Clark as a matter of evol
ution of communication: that nowa
days any place on earth is in reach
ot tne telephone and telegraph and
a man may do a thousand good
things and never get bis name iu th
newspapers, but the first time he
does a bad thing "in it goes.
Mr. Clark said that wnen he went
to Missouri, thirty-live ytars ago,
tbe average number of homicides in
Pike connty was between four and
five a year and now they average less
than one. That, he believed, was
measnreably true of every other
county iu the country.
Up to ten or fifteen years ago, a
prize fight could be pulled off in any
State with absolute impunity. Now
there is not a single State . in which
it is not a penitentiary offense. Up
to comparatively recent years, a duel
could be fought iu any State with,
nt any fear of serious consequences.
Now there is no State in which it is
not a felony.
In conclusion Mr. Clark said;
"Thanks be to Almighty Ood, wars
ate becoming rare and rarer. One
thing which the flying machine will
accomplish will be to put an end for
ever and forever to all wars. Lot.
teries have been stopped. ; Institu
tions for preservation of morals, re
lief of bumtn soffarings, for perpeta
ity of our institutions are springing
op on every baud. '. The idea of re
formation of criminals rather than
their punishment is taking a deep
hold on the minds of men. There
is more 'money .today devoted to
charity per capita than ever before.
Controversial religion has passed and
practical religion is at hand. The
masses of the people are walking np
to the fact that politics should be
purified demanding primary reforms.
A lew minutes delay in treatins some eases
of croup, even the length .of time it takes to
f for tbe doctor olten proves dangerous,
he safest way is to keep Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy in tbe house, and at the first
indication 01 croup give the child a dose.
Pleasant to take and always cures, Sold by
all dealers.
Whenever a county turns its at
tention to the building of smooth
and durable highways, its effort will
bear rapid and golden results for
agriculture and education. A
good road links tbe farm to tbe
school house and the town. It les
sens the cost and labor of marketing
commodities. It puts the rural
community directly in touch with
the life and moveinedta of large cen
ters of population, and every farmer
past whose fields it leads reaps a
benefit.
An attack of the grip is often followed by
a persistent cough, which to many proves a
great annoyance. Chamberlain's Cough
Kemedy has been extensively ubed and with
good success for the relief and cure of this
cough. Many cases bare been cured after
all other remedies bad failed, bold by all
dealers.

. Preparation and Cultivation
Corn deligi t iu a thoroughly well
prepared so. i. Tne land should be
broken in tbe fall or earl spring to
a depth of or 8 inches and the soil
may be gradually deepened beyond
this to auvaiitne. Before planting
out np the I t'id with a disk harrow
to get rid i f clods and to make a
good seed bed. Four feel is a good
width for rows. Tbe distance the
corn is left iu the row would de-
Gnd on tne productiveness of the
ad and should vary, usually, be.
tween 15 and 30 inches. The fer
tilizer on ihtse soils should, as a
rule, be put iu the drill before plant
ing and the corn planted just be
low tne lev. I. weeders aad ligbt
harrows Buy be run across the rows
two or thii-e times before and after
the corn is up and before cultivation .
with cnlnvators begin. Cultivate
with good one or . two-horse culti
vators, which will not require more
than two harrows at the greatest to
the row, every ten days or two weeks,,
and as nearly as possible after rains,
to keep down grata and weeds and;
to conserve the supply of moisture..
The cultivation should be compara
tively deep eriy in tbe season, be
coming shallow as the crop grows
larger and its root system develops..
It has been found desirable to con
tinue the cultivation in this way
until the corn is in silk and tassal,
making the cultivation very shallow
at last and going away some di-.
tarce rrom the corn.
Varieties la the seven years'
work on the Iredell Farm a very
large number of varieties of corn of
practically all the types generally
grown have been tested. Those giv
ing the beKt results are the ones be
longing to tbe prolific or two or
more ears to tbe stalk kind. Among
these, Weekley's Improved, Cocke's
Prolific and Biggs' Seven-Ear have
done specially well. The results of.
variety tests have been published,
each year iu detail and the results
are summarized in the February,.
1909, Bulletin. These' results can.
be bad for study by anyone specially
interested in them.
Feriiliz ition Analysis of these
soils show that they are very low in
phosphoric acid, bigh in potash, and.
have a fair supply of lime, the quan
tity of hitiogen depending on the
amount ol vegetable or organic mat
ter iu the soil. Experiments show
that phusporic acid is the most
needed single constituent, for the
productio n of coin on these lands ;
nitrogen coming next and being
very essential, while potash is of but
little iuipoi lance. It is likely not
possible with present results to say
just what is the best proportion of
these constituents for most profitable
returns, but it is .certain that the
fertilizjr should carry a high per
centage of phosphoric acid and
nitrogen, and a low percentage
of potnah. Indications are that
a mixture containing ' 10 per
cent, available phosphoric acid, 5
per cent nitrogen and 1 1-2 per cent,
potash will give close to if not the
best returns. Six per cent, of nitro
gen is not too much on lands which
have been grown continuously or
practically so, in cotton, corn and
small grain. Five per cent, nitro
gen is equal to 6.08 per cent ammo.
ma. litis mixture can be nsedat
the rate of 300 to 500 pounds per
acre with good returns and profits.
Larger quantities can be used with
good results, but the profits, on ba
sis of fertilizer used, will not be '
proportionately so large.
