CoTcrnor of Porto Rico May
Be Republican Candidate
For Vi|te-Pre«dent — Job
Not Glamorous for Curtis
Somebody has started a rumor
that President Hoover may per
suade Theodore Roosevelt, now
Coverhor of Porto Rico, to be his
running mate on the 1932 ticket.
It is a suggestion with some possi
bilities. The young Governor has
made good in his present job, and
his name has a large popular ap
peal.
But whether Roosevelt will want
the Vice-Presidency, assuming he
can have it, is something else. The
plight of the present occupant of

that high office is not one to make
him envkius. It has been evident
for a long time that “Charlie" Cur
tis, the once hwpy aeoator, is a
very disillusioned Vice-President,
In his former position,he was lu-
l,oiity floor, leader and a legislator
of importance. Now his chief ac
tivities are banging a gavel and
hoping for an opportunity to bfr'ak
a tie-vote. No wonder one hear**
gossip from all sides to the effect
that Curtis will gladly step down
from his Senate throne in 1932 in
order to mingle with his colleagues
on the "floor again. It is generally
conceded that the senatorsbip
his for the asking.
Other leading Republican Vfce-
Presidential possibilities besides
young Roosevelt are Secretary of
War^ Hurley, and Hanford MacNid-
er of Iowa, now United States Min
ister of Canada. Of all these pros
pects! the possible candidacy of
Porto Rico’s Governor undoubtedly
has the most piquant aspects. Ima
gine one Roosevelt contending for
the Presidency on the Democratic
ticket, as seems likely, and an
other trying to reach the Vice-
Presidency on the shoulders of the
G. O.' P. It has been suggested
that if such a situation does occur,
the Democrats might have Marcus
Coolidge of Massachusetts the Vice-
Presidential nomination and com-
rlete the confusion of names.

Although fertilizers have generally
been considered complete with only
the principal plant food elements, ni
trogen, phosphorus, and potash, the
United States Department of Agrl-
-^Iture has found that many of the
less common elements heretofore con
sidered^ nonessential or present in the
soil In sufficient quantities may de
serve a place In the fertilizer bag.
Deficient In Elements.
In large areas In the United States
some of the soils -are deficient in man
ganese, sulphur, iron magnesium, and
chlorine. Experiments in the green
houses have shown beneficial plant-
growth responses to applications of
copper, boron. Iodine, zinc, arsenic,
barium, nickel, and other less common
elements.
The everglades and east coast re
gions of Florida, where trucking is
the chief form of agriculture,: have
been found deficient In manganese
and have been made highly productive
by application of about 50 pounds of
manganese sulphate an acre. VVitliin
the last two years this new fertilizer
has come into general use. It has been
credited In some cases, with 'Improv
ing the yield of tomatoes by 175 to
450 crates an acre, the yieljj of beans
by 3^4 tons an acre, the yield of cab
bage by 42,107 pounds an acre, and
the yield of potatoes by 180 bushels an
acre. It has trebled and quadrupled
the size of carrots and heets and
doubled the size of caulifiower.
Chlorine Helps.
On light sandy soils in some tobac
co-growing regions an application of
20 to 30 pounds of chlorine per acre.
In the form of muriate of potash, im
proves the yield, quality, and drought
resistance of the crop.
A large proportion of the light sandy
tobacco soils are deficient In magnesi-
um and at least 10 to 20 pounds per
acre of this element must be included
in the fertilizer if a normal crop Is to
be obtained. Magnesium deficiency
produces characteristic symptoms In
the plant and the condition is popular
ly known as sand drown.

Adults Contract Childreri^/Diseases
AduUs can, and do, conteact many
children’s diseases. And, usually,
they suffer from them much jnore
than children-do. For instance, many
adults contract worms, an ailment
usually associated with children.
Sometimes they suffer Intensely and
take expensive medical treatments,
without realizing that worms are
the cause of their troubles. Yet, the -
symptoms are the same as in chil- .;
dren, loss of appetite and weight, *
grinding the teeth and restless sleep,

children will do the same for adults.

Sweet Clover Pastures ^
of Important Benefit
“All In all the benefits from sweet
clover under pasture are largely due
to the uneaten residues left on the
soil, to roots left In the soil, to the
general imjirovenient of the phy.-iics’
condition of the soil and to the sup
presslon of weeds by pasturing,”
states H. L. Walster, in charge of
agronomy work at the North Dakota
Agricultural college.
“Under pasturing there la a consid
erable return of nitrogen through
both the liquid and the solid man-ire
left in the field by the live stock
The liquid manure, however. Is sab
Ject to rapid nitrification and leach
ing so that It* Is unlikely to he of any
material benefit to the succeeding
crop, while the solid manure Is un
evenly distributed and some leaching
losses take place In It, also.”
Just what are the effects of pas
taring as compared to the effects of
other treatments upon the soil mois
ture conditions Is not known. Dr. Wal
ster says. It seems likely that a
closely pastured sweet clover field
does not draw as much water from
the soil as when two crops of hay are
taken.

Consumer of Lamb Not
Interested in Weight'
The consumer of lamb Is not Inter
ested in whether a lamb cun be made
to weigh ino pounds In 100 days or
if it weighs 50 pounds. He Is, how
ever, concerned about the, size of the
various cuts. The quality, flavor and
appearance of the me.at are matters
which do concern him very much. The |
economy of the feed yard only af- •
fects liim as It Is passed on In the
price he must pay for his chops or
leg of lamb. The same parallel might
be drawn for jool. The consumer
knows and cares but little about the
breed, birf he knows what he wants in
wearing apparel and pays accordingly.
