Courting Death in the Rapids
Below Niagara Falls.
Niagara Falls.N. Y.,August .'?!
?Carlisle D. Graham swam from
the whirlpool of Niagara Falls
through the lower rapids to
Lewiston this afternoon. Graham
made a heifer swim than he did
on the Oth of September. 1901.
when Maude Willard attempted
to navigate the upper rapids in
Graham's barrel and was snftoea.

waterato 17. The swift-running
current whirled the swimmer to
the center of the stream and for
nearly an hour Graham battled
with the waves. As far as the
Devil's Hole, it appeared com
pnratively easy for Graham, and
then he plunged into tough water
that mnnv times hid him from
sight. Only once, however, was
ho in danger. A current suddenly
tossed him toward the shore
dangerously near the big boulder
that showed threateningly above
the surface. By desperate swimming
lie just avoided the rock
and was carried down stream.
Below the Devil's Hole, where
the river is narrow, Graham had
another hard battle. For a time
he was completely hidden ami
the hundreds of spectators on
the bridge and along the hanks
grew greatly excited. Graham

THE COMMERCIAL AND AGRICULTURAL
VALUE OF FERTILIZERS.
What Is known as the commercial
value of fertilizers as published In
agricultural bulletins and similar documents,
is a valuation made up Uj
adding together the average value of
the chemical ingredients which are
contained In the fertilisers.
The agricultural value of a fertilizer
Is variable accoi ding to the skill
of the farmer and according to the
crop, uiul according to the seasons. It
crop, and the seasons. It is the
practical result obtained in applying
the fertilizers. The two values
ought to be about the same, ami on
the average they probably are about
the same, but the individual farmer
who gives careful personal attention
to his values will be able to make con|
slderable difference in his results by
j studying the underlying principles.
The chemical Ingredients which are recognized
as imparting commeiclal
value to fertilizers .are nitrogen, phosj
phoric acid uitd potash. There is but
' one source of phosphoric acid which
| is at all practical and which is made
I use of in the manufacture of fertilizers
in the South, /rids is add phos'
phate. which Is made by treating
phosphate rock with sulphuric ucld.
The most ordinary source of potash Is
kalnlt, which is mined In Germany.
The phosphoric acid and the potash,
which are derived from these sources,
ure about the same in their results ou
crops as the phosphoric acid and potash
derived from any other sources,
but the sources of nitrogen ure numerous.
This is the most important and
| expensive inKredifiil In fertilizers.
The commercial value of fertilizers,
based on tho analysis of the contained
nitrogen, is reckoned Just the same no
matter from what source the nitrogen
is obtained, and this fact is apt to
mislead the farmer in his estimate of
the kinds of fertilizer to use for certain
crops. For example: a fertiliser
containing nitrate of soda contains a
splendid form of nitrogen, and one
which is very soluble; therefore, it
very good for early vegetables and
quick growing crops, but it is entirety
too soluble for use iti the cotton crop.
The cotton plant is of slow growth and
needs to huve its food supplied
throughout a long interval. A fertilizer
containing cotton seed meal, having
tlx* same amount of nitrogen .is
another fertilizer made of nitrate of
soda or any other source of nitrogen,
is much more valuable to the cotton
plant, even at the same commercial
value, than any other kind of fertilize".
The nitrogen In cotton seed meal Is all
soluble, but it requires some time to
lie put into complete solution. This is
exactly what slow-growing crops like
cotton and corn require, therefore, it
is important for farmers In the purchase
of fertilizer to specify that this
fertilizer is made with cotton seed
meal, rather than other chemicals used
as a source of nitrogen tor. *, hat is the
same thing, the source of ummoHia.)
All fertilizers containing nitrogen In
any form are generally known as imHerniated
fertilizers. Let every farmer
see to it that his fertilizers are ammoniatcd
with cotton seed meal, and,
as he knows he can not get the meal
to better advantage than from any o(
