BAER HEADS TENNIS CLUB; DENU_ELECTED SECRETARY-TREASURER At a largely attended and enthu- siastic meeting of the Bemidji Ten- nis club held last eyening H. C. Baer was elected president and E. H. Denu was elected secretary and treasurer. Plans for the coming season were discussed and several of those pres- ent expressed themselves as looking forward to a season of unusual ac- tivity. It is the intention to ar- range several inter city matches be- tween Bemidji’s premier players and those from nearby city clubs, several of which will Be played in Bemidji. The courts and grounds of the lo- cal organization are to be placed in first class condition immediately and practice resumed for the coming sea- son. NEED OF PHOSPHATES. Acute Fertilizer Problem Faces the Farmer This Year. The labor possibilities as the farmer now sees them will doubtless determine the acreage he will plant. But what- ever area he plnnt\s it should be made, by all means at his command, to yield a full crop. The proper use of fertili- zers is one of the best modes of insuring such crop. Every fertilizer expedient that ¢an be helpfully applied should be used to this end. A few suggestions for readjustment of fertilizer plans for the season may, | however, apply to some cases. First, remember that most soils lack available phosphoric acid to a greater extent than any other plant food re- quired by the ordinary field crop. Nitro- gen, especially on light lands recently under hoed crops, is the next require- ment. Potash is quite often useful on long ‘cultivated soils, but is rarely the prime need, particularly on loamy and | clay 1ands.

Sandy soils are the least retentive of the added Do not depend upon raw rock{p)m- phate or even gréund bone for this year’s crops. Use acid rock phosphate. It is conceded by all authorities to be the form of phosphate most certain to bring a quick return. If you have any potash fertilizers use them chiefly for potatoes, cabbage and other semigarden crops. Field crops, especially on land previously fertile, can ordinarily do very well for a pe- riod without potash dressings. Where salt cake or agricultural salt is avail- | able a dressing of 200 or 300 pounds an acre may help to make up for the ab- sence of potash fertilizer, Nitrate of soda and sulphate of am- monia are already scarce and high in price. Where available their best use is in hill or drill for giving the crop a good start and later as top dressings to promote better leaf and stalk growth. Twenty or thirty pounds to the acre of these fertilizers thus used will often give large returns. Except where the sod and land are quite light corn on sod land usually re- quires little nitrogen beyond the soil supply. The same is true of potatoes except on light or gravelly soils. Con- centrate such potasb supplies as wood ashes, tobacco stalks and midribs and fresh leaf compost upon this and other root and leafy garden crops. Add ni- trogenous fertilizer when the potatoes are not planted on sod. If stable ma- nure is used plow under. If a drillable substance, such as tankage, dried fish, ete., apply at planting time. Do not rely upon the peat, muck or “humus” fertilizers now offered to supply nitro gen nor upon hair, coarse hoof parings. leather scrap and similar materials. Last, but not least, do your best to give the crop a good start. Plant some Swiss chard this season. It will grow under unfavorable climat- fc conditions, and the leaves will remain tender throughout the season. Swiss chard is a form of the beet, the foliage developing more prominently than the roots. The wrinkled leaves may be be used as greens, or the hard stalks may be cooked and served like aspar- agus. Chard has as much food value as spinach and tastes much the same. It is wore easily prepared for the table, for the leaves are large and easily cleaned. Plant same as beets.

Irish potatoes should be planted as soon as the soil conditions will permit. Plant in rows about three feet wide and place the tubers ten to twelve inches ‘apart in the row. Cover to the depth of about four inches. If the sprouts reach the surface too early and there is still danger of frost they may be protected by covering with soil*by running a furrow on either side of the row with a plow. Irish Cobbler, Bliss, Triumph and Early Ohio are good ear- ly varieties.—F. M. Rolfs, Oklahoma Agricultura] College. x x Salt and Charcoal For Hogs. : Salt and charcoal should be provided to furnish mineral matter for hogs, says Farm and Fireside. They may be fed separately, but it is advisable to add salt to the charcoal, as it makes it more palatable and is especially good for hogs. Salt should be available at all times. It is best to keep it in an open shed where it can be protected om the weather. Charcoal is best ed from the hopper or self feeder to prevent needless waste.
