New Times, New Things The old fertilizer formulas are giving way to the new. At every farmers' meeting one subject should be the fertilizer formula that will furnish a balanced ration to the crop and keep up the fertility of the soiL To do this the fertilizer should contain at least as much POTASH as Phosphoric Acid. Our note book has condensed facts essential in farmers' meetings and plenty of space to record the new things that you hear. Let us send one to you before your Institute meets. A supply of these is furnished by request to every institute held in several states. We will be glad to send a supply delivered free of charge to every Institute, Grange or Farmers' Club Officer on request. It contains no advertising matter. GERMAN KALI WORKS, Inc.

Tbe Mew Komi Kacbina Co., Iracft, 1st, Green Manuring No. 12. Cow Peas. Who has not heard of the cow pea a a hay making and a soil improv ing plant: And, wbohts not bren ltd to believe that our.third or morf of the M'rngen aud other plant food I' leintn's found in this plant at ma. turity, are lift in the roots and stub j ble after the crop is harvested and cured for hayf thtt is to say, out of cvt ry ' uiidrwl pounds of nitrogen & je'e fonnd in the pea crop at tuatur if j, 3a l 3 lbs are the roots and stubbl ? This was our best information up to a short tune ago and even now some of our best agricultural advis ers ilb at on proverbial th rd of the nitrogen and etc being left in the nridergronud portion of the plant, like tlie i d idea of tbe souring of the SJil on well drained land, some m in seems to have gaessed at the amount of nitrogen ai.d etc. left in the roots at'd stubbie and hastened t r"8h his intention into print. Now a ton of cued cow peas has, in tbe whule plant about, 40 lbs. of .uiiroei'. If one third of this Him uiit were in tbe roots and stub tile we would have left on the siil it. d in the suit about 14 lbs. of avitilatle i.itiegen per acre in case Uie u r produced a ton of cow-pea tiny. L'ms amount of nitrogen is q ial to that furnished by 700 lbs. i aii 8.2 2 fertilizer a pretty heavy application for mont farm crops. This seemed to be rather weighty argument iu favor of cutting the vines, ft-eding thttn to live stock, and putting the manure hack ou the laud regardless of tbe fact tuat tbe manure horn a ton of cow pee hay fed to cattle will cover, well, wont part of the acre will it covtr? Our farmere haye been acting on th a advice for a number of ye r in the fuce of the daily decreasing fer tility of their lauds under thm ejs tern. Mr. W. A. Marsh of Union Coun ry toon this advice literally, sowed bars, edit aud removed them, then sowed cow peas on tbe oat stub ble and cut these f t ha when m tuie. This practice was continued till his land would not produce a crop even of pets. Examples conld be multiplied wbere the pea crop bus been removed year after year with disas trous r suits. Indeed, it now seems that the surest method of depleting the fertility of the soil is to remove a crop of cowpea vines from it every year for a few years in succession. The real explanation of this pheuomenon has finally been dis. covered. , In an exhaustive series of tests and experiments conducted by a numt er of our best experiment stations it has been found that the amount of ni rogen and eto left in the roots and stubble of the cowpea plant is not one third but one tenth of that fonnd in tbe wnole plant Here seems to be one of the leading factors in tbe explanation of the running down of avrage sous by the annual removal gf tbe pea crop. Another and, perhaps the leading factor, is that all the organic mat ter is removed from the toil for series of years by this method and thus all bacterial life is driven from the land which is thereby rendered dead. These dead sous are not nea essarily robbed of their mineral plant ioods, however, as will be de monstrated by plowing down a cow pea crop or a good crop of rye for a year or two in succession. One ton of green cow pea vines contain! abont o.o lbs of nitrogen; 2 lbs. of phosphate; and 6 lbs of pot. ash. It is an easy matter, on aver. age soil, to get a growth of 12 tons of some one of the rank growing vi neties per acre, wbicn will onre np into three ton of hay.

He gets as much phosphate rendered available to she succeeding crop as he would get from 150 tons of manure or from 112 tons of an 8-2 a fertili zer, xne potasn tnns rendered available is equal to that obtained from over 100 tons of manure or from nearly 19 tons of an 8-2-2 fertilizer. And the humus obtained from this amonnt of vegetable mat ter turned into the soil will be cuf. ficient to feed bacterial life from years to come add will add immense to a ejbanioal conditions and water holding capacity of the land. Ramseur Notes The prosreasive li'tle town of Ramseur located at the terminus of the Greensboro and Ramseur R ilroad has made considerable progress in the last five years- We havejut organized a band known as Ue Ramseur Concert Band and employed Prof. D S Warbuton as band master who has had over thirty years ex perience in this work. The officers are II. B. Moore, Mana ger; Jno M. Brady. Sec;N. F. Marsh, Treas- At the present ra'eof progress Kamseurwill compare favorably with any town in the state as an idea' place to live. We have one of tve best eqr ip' pedand most tip-to-date furni ture factories in the south. Located on Deep River with its abundance of water power, surrounded by the best wheat and corn growing section in the state, and with the assurance of one or two new railroads, it js a most attractive place for pros pective investors ani home- seekers.

A BALD-HEADED WOMAN. Shorn of Her Crown of Beauty, Letet In Love and Marriage. Hair la certainly most necessary to woman. Who could love and marry a bald-headed woman? What charms could one array to offset such a tMsflg urement? A woman's goal la usually love and marriage. Her crowning glory Is her nan. Tbe loss of her. hair mars her beauty, happiness, and success. Yet there are thousands ot women who are neglecting or Injuring their hair to such an extent that It is only a matter of time when It will be utterly rained. Many women destroy the beauty of their hair through thoughtlessness or Ignorance of certain facts. They use curling irons over-heated, or to excess. which destroys the natural oil of the hair, causing It te split, break, and come out They do not shampoo their hair often enough, or too often. Tbe.v use soaps or preparations which con tain ingredients positively harmful to the scalp and hair. As a result vf such treatment dan druff la created, the hair loosens, loser color, falls out and baldness com mences, unless proper and prompt pre cautions ape taken In time. Then again, microbes and certain disease brlngi about unhealthy scalp and hair conditions. Almost any woman may rid herself of dandruff and diseased scalp and hair If she will but one the right rem edy. , We have that remedy, and we will positively guarantee that It will either relieve dandruff and baldness or It will not cost the user anything.

In the county where a newspaper is published it would te v roost impos sible to get cut an issue without naming some one who every child knows or knows of. Hence they are every week anxious to get the paper and read it through with in. terest to see ho in named.

Great Farming in Montgomery Mr. Frank Thompson of Can by who lii-es on Tbickt-ty oreek, in low er Montgomery, ha presented Tbe Montgomerian with 52 ears of sam. pie corn grown on his farm. It is of the old.;ime, one-eared long cob variety, and the ears are wonders to look upon. Mr. Thompson has one of the largest bogs we have sean in a long wbile. '1 hose who claim te be judges of porkers say it will weigh 500 pounds. A close second to this one ia owned by his neighbor Mr. James Blake. It is estimated at 450 pounds. Another among the prosperous farmers of that section is Mr. J. O. Thompson who this year produced 65 bushels of corn on an acre on some of his land. That sectiun of the county is abont eight miles from a railroad, hut tbey are a prosperous and intel ligent perple. They are good farm ers, all of them. Some of their hill land is so steep a vehicle has never been on it.
