Maryland in No Harry To Act on Federal Amendment, Annapolis, Feb. S.?Maryland will be In no hurry to act upon the pro? posed Income tax amendment to the Federal Constitution. Members of the committee upon Federal Relations, of which Senator Campbell and Dele? gate Henderson are chairmen, desire to have full and free discussions of the subject and to consider It from all viewpoints. In fact, the position to be taken by the Maryland legislature will be left probably to the decision of the Dem? ocratic caucus, which is to be held later for the consideration of political measures and the fulfillment of plat? form promises. The Committees on Federal Rela? tions are among those without com? mittee rooms, and, so far, have had no place In which to meet. ?LaOrippe pains that pervade the entire system, LaGrlppe cougs that rack and strain, are quickly cured by Foley's Honey and Tar.

DO YOU KNOW just what your cotton and corn need, and are you furnishing it in such quantities as required and In such shape that the plant can use it ? Suppose you should put the food for your stock in a bo*, nail it up and place it in their trough?would you ex? pect them to thrive and grow fat ? Hardly! Well, did it ever occur to you that when you use lumpy, badly mixed fertilizers you are putting this same proposi- . tiou up to your crops?offering them plant food in such shape that they can't get to it ? Fertilizers, to do your crops any good, must dissolve in the soil waters. These are constantly in motion, rising to the surface during the day and sinking at night?passing and re passing the roots of the plant, which absorb the food contained in the water?and this is the only way in which the plant can feed. Therefore, when you buy fertilizer, you should do so with the idea of furnishing food for your crop and on the same principle that you should purchase food for your stock. It should not only coutain the necessary Ammonia, Phosphoric Acid and Potash, but above aH else these should be In soluble form?the mechanical condition of the fertilizer should be such as to permit the plant to absorb every particle of it, and the goods should be manu? factured from materials that will not give up their plant food at one time, but furnish a steady supply throughout the entire growing season. This is tho iertilizer you should have and can ?et? in only one way. It is impossible to produce a i.roods like this by the dry-mixing of raw materials, whether you do this at home with a shovel and a screen or buy it from someone who has made it the same way?the only differ? ence being in the quantity. * These n. at trials must be ground to a powder, and it re? quires machinery costing thousands of dollars to do it properly. They must then be so manipulated that when complete, you have a compound, each ounce of which is exactly like every other ounce, and not a mixture one p-irt of which would contain too much Ammonia and too little Potash, while another part would be exactly the opposite?and all of it contain plant food lacked up and not available. * Remember that the chemical analysis of a fertilizer is no test of its crop growing qualities. The chemist can pul? verize lumps and by the use of various means search out the plant food ; your crop can't. You can take an axe, break open the box and get the corn ; your mule can't. Don't risk a crop failure! Insure your peace of mind as well as your crop by using Armour's Animal Ammoniated Fertilizers Manufactured by Armour Fertilizer Works ATLANTA. GEORGIA BOYS' CORN CONTEST. Mr. O. B. Martin Tells All About tho Scheme. It is worth while to get a boy to form a good purpose and work per? sistently toward Its accomplishment. If a number of boys can be induced to strive for the same goal, with a spirit of friendly rivalry which stlm ulates observation, study, industry and economy, then the good results wtll be increased many fold. Such Is the plan of the Boys' Clubs In the farm demonstration work. In order to get the best results it is not only necessary to get the boys to unite their efforts, but it is also es? sential that other vital forces In the county co-operate. One of the strong features about the demonstration work Is that it is co-operative. So in the Boys' Department we fre? quently find the county superintend? ent of (education and teachers, the demonstration agents, the business men, the newspapers and the parents giving aid and support. Where this work is being intro? duced in a county, the county super? intendent of education and teachers can reach the boys in all sections of the county more quickly and more effectively than any other agency. The superintendent can explain the plan to the teachers, and they can explain It to the boys and secure the names of all boys who will agree to plant one acre of corn. It is best to begin with corn. It Is a flne^subject for study, and our people need to raise more corn in order to be pros? perous and Independent. After thla is done a meeting of all boys Interested should be held at the court house for the purpose of or? ganization and Instruction. Such meeting should be held early in the season so that every boy may have time for proper preparation of soil and selection of seed. For the first year it has been found advantageous to see that first class seed are fur? nished to all of the boys alike. After that each boy should select and breed his own seed. Wherever a spe? cial agent of the U. S. department of agriculture is located in a county it will be found that he will gladly help in giving instructions and advice in regard to the agricultural part of ttoe work, either to the county club or to local groups of boys whom he may meet in his rounds over the county. Prizes and Premiums. If the merchants and ther public spirited citizens have been visited and the work explained to them be? fore the general meeting of boys, there will be a fine list of prizes to announce. There have been many commendable contributions to this cause in various parts of the coun? try during this year. It adds consid? erable Interest to the work to offer prizes like the following which have been selected from different lists In the South for this year: A trip to Washington, $50 in gold, $10.00, $5.00, a nice buggy, a first class bi? cycle, a strong two-horse plow, a double-barrel shotgun, at $5 hat, a $15 suit of clothes, an up-to-date corn planter, a ton of fertilizer, a two-horse wagon," and other articles of utility and value Some boards of trade and chambers of comemrce have made appropriations direct for prizes and some have given fine rec? ognition to the efforts of the Boys' ! Clubs by givn. them banquets and j street car and automlble rides. Circulars anil Bulletins. Just as soon as the names of all of the boys ar? assembled in the office of the county superintendent of edu? cation, duplicate lists should be sent to Dr. S. A. Knapp, Washington, D. O.i who has charge of the farmers' co-operative demonstration work. These boys will from time to time re? ceive circulars of instruction and in? formation in regard to preparation, fertilization, cultivation, seed selec? tion, etc. The circulars furnish ex? cellent subject matter for discussion j at a club meeting or for a lesson In I school. They also lead to further I study of afrmer's bulletins and books, j A boy will profit from such lessons, discussions and books because he is ; making practical application of the ' principles that are taught. He learns because he needs it and not because ; It is scientific. Hilles and Awards. It Is not necessary to have many rules. A few regulations, however, are necessary in order to prevent misunderstanding. It is well for the boys to elect their own president, vice president, secretary and treasur or. Some clubs havie badges of mem? bership in the shape of a button with the name of the club, name of I the county and stiite, and the year printed or engraved upon It. 1. Boys Joining clubs and enter? ing contests must be under eighteen years of age. 2. No boy shall contest for a prize unless bo becomes a member of j a club. 3. Tho members of the clubs ; must agree to read the instructions of the demonstration work. 4. Kach boy must plan his own crop and do his own work. 5. Exhibits must be delivered to tho county superintendent of educa tion by October 16th. 6. The amount of the yield and the method of measurement must be certified by each boy and attested by at least two disinterested witnesses, who shall be satisfactory to the county superintendent. 7. In awarding prizes the follow? ing basis shall be used: (a) Greatest yield per acre. .30 per c. (b) Best 10 ear exhibit.. 15 per c. (c) Best written account show? ing: history of crop and all ex? pense.30 per c. (d) Best showing of profit on in? vestment.30 per c. Experts from agricultural colleges and departments of agriculture and leading farmers should be Invited to act as judges and also to give talks on corn judging and seed selection. In estimating profits uniform prices should be used, for instance; $5 per acre for rent. 10 cents per hour for the work of each boy, and 5 cents per hour for each horse. Fairs and Exhibits. When there is a county fair the boys' exhibit should be shown there. If no fair should be held in a county, the boys' exhibit should be collected In the court houe or some other pub? lic place easy of access. A good exhibit of a Boyr Club may lead to the establishment of a county fair. Exhibits of local clubs at school houses stimulate the work and give fine opportunities for gen? eral instruction. Although the clubs may start with corn, the development naturally leads to exhibits of other farm and crops. , Results. The object of the Boys' Demonstra? tion work is the same as that among men, namely, better methods of farm? ing and greater yields. Many of the boys in clubs who begin to study agriculture In this way will continue the study in the agricultural colleges, others will continue such efforts on their 'arms, and all of them will make more useful and more efficient citizens. Prom the pleasant and profitable experience of owning and managing their small plats they will develop into independent, intelligent farmers. The country needs such a citizenship and such a life offers and will offer great opportunities for some years. The professions are crowded and the wage-earner must pay high prices for the necessities of life. The wise and judicious producer can enjoy health, wealth and con? tentment. The question is how many boys can be reached and influenced thus to succeed.
