A useful jnvention is the line-carrying buoy. Its inventor sought to devise some means of getting a line from ghip to shore, and the line-carrying buoy was the result. When released from the ship, if the wind is in the right direction, it blows steadily toward the shore, the line unwinding behind it as it gods, until finally the buoy is dragged out of the surf with the line intact. In addition to its use in this manner, it is available for all the regular purposes of the ordinary buoy. During one of the British expeditions to the antarctic regions, more than 60 obervation were made of the aurora australis, the southern counterpart of our northern light, The appearance of the light resembled that presented in the arctic region. But the maximum freguency did not occur during the months of the long polar night, and the phenomenon was most intense at the time of the equinoxes, when the sun is perpendicular over the equator, and daylight is simultaneous at both the north and the south pole. Years ago wind power was commerci- ally popular. It simply had to be, since there were few other sources of power. Today We get most of our power from coal and a great amount from water. Palestine is not favored with either coal or water power, and Dr. L. M. Mayer- sohn is now studying the problem of wind power to determine whether it would be possible to run the industries of Palestine with wind motors. He has collected interesting data on wind mo- tors in Europe. Examination of 477 in- stallations was made. Eighty-seven per cent of these worked satisfactorily for periods up to 1,800 years. Wind-power installations are ncw made in Denmark for the gemeration of electric power in small communities. THE REASON WHICH 1S IN MANURE That is a phrase which is rather eom- {to anything ‘elre. An “element” is a eubstance which, by no known means, can be decomposed in- Salt, for example, Is Mot an “element,” for it can be separat- ed into two distinct things, the metal so- dium, and the gas chlorine. But neither Sodium nor chlerine can be further sep- arated. They, therefore, are elements. Well, there ate some seventy of these elements that chemists know and handle. Out of various combinations of everything we know is made, from ele- phants to angle-worms, from automebiles to cobblestones, from cabbages to kings. Such things as corn and clover and ao- tatoes and wheat and grass and trees and weeds are, of course, included. Every crop the farmer raises is com- posed of some of these elements, in widely varying combinations and propor- tions. So far as known, about a dozen or fifteen are chiefly responsible for the making of plants. They inelude nitrogen, Dphosphorus, potash, lime, magnesium, so- dium, iron, sulphur, and several others. These elements are all either in the soil or the air or the water. The plant— which eats with its roots and breathes with jts leaves, very much as we eat with our mouths and breathe with our lungs—takes the different elements it re- quires, as it can find them, and grows either luxuriantly or feebly, acsording to the amount and oharacter of the ele- ments available to it. If it finds all it needs, in the proportions it calls for, and within easy reach, the plant, wheth- er-corn or pussley, grows healthfully. I it is stinted in any ome of the ele- ments it wants it grows weakly or re- fuses to grow at all. Now, all the dozen or fifteen elements to make my corn grow, of course. | needful for plant-growth exist in vary- ing proportions in average soils, along with more or less of the fifty others which are not specially useful to plants. And every crop of grains or vegetables draws on this stock. When vou dig a3i sell a hundred bushels of potatoes, you sell, in them, a certain number of pounds of nitrogen and phosyphorus and potash and lime and sodium and magnesium, etc., which they've taken out of your soil to make that hundred bushels of potatoes. One doesn't need to be a scientific gent to see that this thing can't be kept up fordver. As, vear after year, the crop- making foed in the soil is used by your grains and grasses and vegetables, the total amount is, of course, diminished. There ig never quite as. much, every fall, as there was in the spring. The less there is for the trops to grow with, the less they'll grow. You know that from experience. You don't need any chemist to tell you what you can see with your own eyes. It makes no difference to you how he puts it; you simply say: “The Soil's worn out.” Wherzin you're dead right. Worn out soil js worth no more than a worn out tea kettle. So, to prevent it's wearing out, to keep it supphed with the food the crops want, to make it con- tinue to produce, you put on.manare. You've found, by experience, that a lib- eral application of farm manure will help amazingly. Crops which aren’t worth har- vesting on unmanured land, turn out much better on manured fields. Why? Well, you say yourself; “There’s a reason for all things.” There's a rea- son why the mavure makes your crops better. It is simply that in the manure you put back on (o your worn out soil some of the elements which constant cropping has withdrawn from its natural contents. For the manure contains—in fact, is largely made up of—those very dozén or fifteen elements which the crops must have if they are going te grow. Your manuring stunt is nothing but a return to the soil of some portions of the element plant-food which previous crops have stolen from it. Don’t think anybody is going to make fun of you or criticize you for using manure. Take it all around, it's a mighty good ecrop-producer. Every farmer should save it as a miser saves pennies, and should usn it as generously as a sperdthrift scaiters dollars. Blessed is Ithat they've put back into their soil at| these | tdozen or fifteen plant-food elements are ‘Probabl a great deal about nitrogen amd phos- ‘Phorug and potash. But, by dint Later, they discovered that, in many cases, the addition of petash alse wag an advantage. . When farm manures ram short, they eould see good effects from the use of nitrate of soda, whieh is an im- pure form of mitrogen. About ali the scientific peeple have done, so far, is to find and explain the reason for results, such as these which the working farmer had already diseovered. Now, nine farmers out of tem know least for of the necessary elements of plant-food, viz: Nitrozen, phasphorus, potash and lime. And put them back in a form .which the plants will ae- cept and use. Otherwise, it's Geod-bye farmer, Good-bye farm! The rest of the used more gparingly and are, ordinarily, plentiful enough to need no immediate renewing. Right there is where Mr. Farmer comes : up againdt it with a bump. He hasn't manure enough te fill ‘he erder. He can't buy enouzh of the“nitrozen and the phosphorus and the potash and the lime to make up the defieit in his dirt, for the simple reason that they cost more to buy than the crops they will raise sell for. Especially the nitrogen and the petash. It is exactly at this peint that the “new agriculture” steps around the stump and offers its help. the four elements most needed, ni- trogen and potash are the deavest. If Mr. Farmer can train a few hundred mil- lion bacteria to take for his crops ample ratiors of nitrogen out of the air which’ is four-fifths pure nitregen, and equally ample rations of potash out of the soil which normally centaing any- where from fifteen to thirty-five tons of pure patash—enongh to last for & thous- and years of steady orepping. IF he can do this and save his nitregen-potash money, shouldn’t he do it? For one, I don’t see any reason why not. \All that seems neeessary is to shew him that it can be dome and teach him how to do it. The rest is up to him. There; I've talked enough for today. But don’t exult prematurely; There more to come! THE FARMER.
