They have a rhyme in certain parts of Pennyslvania to.the ef- fect that. “Farming with lime, you may be sure, Makes the farmers rich and the sons poor.” ‘The meaning simply is that constant and persistent use of lime, with no other manure, gradually uses up the natural manurial, contents of the. soil; till it. at last, exhausts them com- pletely.

This year I've already put in three times as much, ready for use as soon as the spring opens. I have at hand, fortunately, an adequate supply of hen manure, and I have ord- ered a few tons of acid phosphate. The hen manure ought to furnish me nitro- gen, the phosphate to five me phos- phoric acid, and the lime to transform some of my underlying potash into plant-food.

The date for the’ introduction of new business has passed, and no measure of that nature can emenate from committee as mno blank resolution was presented to pre. serve the right to amend the cits charter. To have it go through the regular channel it would require a two-thirds vote and that could not possibly be attained without the di- recty request of the court of common council, and perhaps not even the; It is a matter upon which there is much diversity of opinion, just at t present time. But If present condi- tions prevail among some of the ap- pointive officers, some who work the office for all there is in it, over and above the prescribed duties, the change suggested may be demanded by the people, and, in 1917 such a resolution to amend the charter would be rushed through the regular chanrel without striking a snag. It may be that Mr. Small had the action of some ap- pointive officer in mind when he sug- gested such & radical change in municipal affairs. But it is too late, to apply the remedy in connection with the present session of the zen- eral assembly. To prevent such pro- ceeding in the future, it would perhaps ve well for appointive officers to mind their own official busines: Windham County EKONK Fourth Number In Pageant Services Given—Local Guests at Providence Golden Wedding.
