March 3.—Wide pub- Itcity hss recently been given to a statement advocating the use of ground feldspar as a substitute for potash salts and Veferfingi. to U. S. Department of Agriculture Bulletin i No. 104 as authority for the pro- I »osed practice. Bulletin No. 104, entitled “The Use of Feldspathlc Rocks as Ferti- lizer.” was published In 1907. This bulletin discussed the use of finely ground feldspar as a possible sub stitute for potafeh for fert'.Hier puf poses, and was based upon a series of .experiments conducted by the De partment. The results reached were inconclusive, *s the following*quota tion from the bulletin will show: A careful reading of the forego ing pages will show that no claim has been made that ground feldspae is an efficient substitute under all circustanre* for potash salts . . . .

The first on the program was a talk by W. W. Kmoak, but as the chairman of the program committee had failed to notify Mr. Hmoak of their d€*sire to have him present on this occasion, he failed to appear. The nest few minutes was given over to Miss Cora Coqnor, home demonstration agent for this ctounty, who explained the work of the can ning clubs to the young girls and other present, and Immediately got up enough girls, to warrant p ran- -ning club at this school. . v ' * A debate. “Resolved.

Hloft and Hill, fol lowed this on the program. ? Following a r iggestlon of one of the members, the president appoint ed Misses Beulah Hlott and Carrie l.<ni Hill to tahe up a collection to he expended for club pins. A riglit good little sum was realised 1 , hut the 'election .of the pin was postponed „ until a future meeting. A program copimitfee. consisting of Messrs.

WEAK, AILING CHILD Xkdfi Strong By Delicious Vinol Lakeport, N, H.-"^ little girl 8 yean of age was in a debilitate, run down condition and had a stubborn cough so she waa weak and ailing all the time. Nothing helped her until we tried Vinol. Then hei appetite increased and she is strong and well, and I wish other parents of weak„delicate children wouW tty Vinol. ”—Geo. A. CoLlins. This is because Vinol contains the tissue building, strengthening cod liver elements and toe tonic iron which a weak and run-down system needs. John M. • Klein, Druggist, # Walterboro* S.'C,» tion on the subject ... 1 At the* present stage of the Investigation it. would be extremely unwise for any one to attempt to use ground rock except on an experimental wale that would not entail great financial loss ....... It Is extremely unlikely that ground rock will ever entirely displace tho use of potash salts, for its availability must Inevitably de pend upon many modifying condl- .(ions, such as the nature of the soil, the amount of moisture present, the character of the-other fertilizers u«cd, and the varying root action of differehr crops.' Investigations made since the pub lication of this bulletin have failed to showMhat ground feldspar is of any general value for ft rtflizer pur poses. The potash content in feld-^ spar rocks is in a highly insoluble form and to be made available for fertilizer purposes must undergo chemical treatment at hijji tempera tures. In general, it nfay.be said that most soils contain a consider ably amount of potash in this insol uble form derived from the disinte gration of silicate rocks, of which • <*«:»r is one. Tbfi application of ground feldspar*, therefore, in mdbt' instances means merely the addition of an ingredient already present in the soil in considerable quantity. Many prrocesses for rendering* th# potash in feldspar available have been proposed, but to be commer cially successful under normal con ditions^, market nnist be founjl for the by-product, and up to the present time no satlsfaetbry solution of this problem has been reached.. There are numerous substances the application , of which to s6i!s will, under certain circumstances and with particular soils, bring afiout increased crop yields. Ground feldspar may'be included tfl this class. However, the cases, where increased yields result fyom the ap plication of "these substances are so are and the conditions under which increased yields nmv be expeefed are 'xo little-understood that their use as fertilizer mateirals in general can not be recommended. . The Department has recently re- • ••iveid many requests for copies of Bulletin 104 and many inquiries with reference to the use of feldspar :is a fertilizer. ' The farmers of the country should be warned that the'’ Department does not recommend 'such a practife anti that the expend! ture of money for ground feldspar s a substitute for potash for ferti lizer. purposes will probaly not re- ult in affy commensurate increase in crop yields.
