This is not the time to use unbalanced Fert
ilizers. Every cent of your Fertilizer Dollar
must give you the largest possible return, es
pecially in a year like this. A complete, well-
balanced Fertilizer is always the best.
Meal and Acid is not a well-balanced Fertil
izer. Your, crops need Nitrogen, Phosphoric
Acid and Potash all three. Each helps the
others.
See that each ton of your Cotiton Fertilizer
F contains 30,0 pounds of Muriate of Potash, or
its equivalent in high grade Kainit. Sweet
Potatoes 600 pounds. Corn—200 pounds.
Tobacco 400 pounds of Sulphate of Potash.

FORD—
The best news I have seen in the
papers in a long time is the an
nouncement that Henry Ford is
about to start production on a new
line of cars. Lots of people have
been waiting to make up their
minds what car to buy this spring
until they see the new Ford
think there is going to be a big
rush foi* new cars of all makes as
soon as the new Ford models are
shown. Most of the cars now in
use are pretty well shot, and now
that the definite upswing in busi
ness and industry has begun, this
ought to be the biggest year ever
in the automobile business, for Ford
-and for everybody else who makes
a good, loW-priced car.
And the number of men who will
go back to work in the Ford fac
tories will make a big dent in the
unemployment situation.
WALLACE—
The death of Edgar Wallace,
most prolific writer of detective
fiction, is a personal loss to hund
reds of thousands of Americans
who have been in the habit of
reading every new Wallace book as
soon as it came out/ No writer
ever lived who produced such ah
immense volume of entertaining
stories of such uniformly high qual
ity. Wallace frequently worked
on three or four books at once,
dictating each to a different steno
grapher, and more than once wrote
an entire full-sized novel in Idss
than a week. He was never at a loss
for a plot, and his characters car
ried the stamp of reality.
Edgar Wallace was a giant of a
man, of apparently limitless physi
cal energy, but even the strongest
is not proof against pneumonia.
There are many other good writers
of first rate detective stories, but
none who has Wallace’s energy and
capacity for rapid work.
BUTLER—
Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler has
just celebrated his thirtieth anni
versary as President of Columbia
University in New York City. Un
der Dr. Butler’s guidance Columbia
has become the largest university
in the world, with something like
thirty thousand students and a
staff of three thousand professors
and instructors.
There is no stauncher defender
of the fundamental principles of
democracy than he. And I do not
know of anyone who had a sounder
or more complete foundation of
education to begin with, or who has
made as good use of it, as Nicholas
Murray Butler. His influence over
thirty successive graduating classes
of Columbia will live for genera-
vions.
It is a great responsibility to try
to guide the thinking of such a
host of young people, but on the
whole I think Dr. Butler has made
a god job of it
SILVER—
Now that the major financial
problems of the nation are rapidly
being cleared up, attention in
Washington is focusing again on
the monetary position of silver, of
which I have spoken before in this
column
Senator Pittman of Nevada has
introduced a bill for the purchase
by the government of five million
ounces of silver a month, to be paid
for in silver certificates. That prob
ably will not be done in just that
way, but I know so many people in
influential financial and political
circles who believe that something
must be done to restore silver to
its money position, and who are
wofking so hard and intelligently
toward that end, that I believe we
shall see something effective done
about it before very long.
NAMES—
Under the common law which
prevails throughout most of the
United States, a person’s name is

Handle Bees Wisely
CLEMSON COLLEGE, Feb. 20.—
Two conditions due to the warm
winter have caused bees to run
short of food, says Ned Prevost,
state apiarist, advising beekeepers
to go through their hives to be sure
the bees have plenty of honey to
last them until the spring flow
comes in. These two conditions
are:
1. The winter being unusually
warm has caused the bees to be ac
tive practically all the time and
this has made them use a great
deal more honey to winter on than
they ordinarily do.
2. The queens have laid, and rais
ing young bees has caused them to
use a great deal of honey.
Mr. Prevost advises that from
now until honey comes in is the
most dangerous part of the season,
because the queens are laying more
each day and owners should not
stop or curtail the queens now. If
they run short of food the queens
will stop laying and that will mean
an insufficient number of young
bees to gather the spring flow.
name is now simply Branch Cabell.
Col. Frank Knox, publisher of the
Chicago Daily News, just appointed
head of the President’s anti-hoard-
i ig commission, was christened
Yvilliam Franklin Knox, but he pre-

dice and remove any fat, skin, or
gristle. Simmer over a slow fire
in a little melted butter until the
butter is absorbed, and then mix
with white sauce until thoroughly
moistened. Season with salt and
pepper and a little onion juice.
Turn onto a buttered dish to cool.
Diced potatoes may be added if de
sired. Divide the mixture into balls
about the size of an egg, flatten in
to cutlet shape, roll in cracker
crumbs, beaten egg, and then in
fine bread crumbs, and fry to a
crisp golden brown in hot deep fat.
These may be served with tomato
sauce.
In frying croquettes, it is import
ant to have the fat at the right
temperature, the temperature at
which they cook in the shortest
time possible without burning. The
temperature found to be best for
croquettes is 30 degrees Fahrenheit
or until a bread cube will brown in
40 seconds. / Also, be careful that
too many croquettes are not put in
to the fat at once to cool it below
this optimum temperature.
Clarifying the fat each time it is
used prolongs its life for frying. Let
it cool for 5 or 10 minutes, and then
add a potato cut in small pieces.
Heat the fat until the potato is
browned, so that the potato will
absorb most of the odors. Strain
the fat through several thicknesses
of cheesecloth and put away for
the next time when you are looking
for some economical way of using
bits of meat or vegetables.

New Fumigant
Is Successful
Four hundred and fifty thousand
bushels of wheat were fumigated
recently in Baltimore, Md^ with a
mixture of ethylene oxide and
solid carbon dioxide in the propor
tion of 1 to 10. The use of these
materials as a fumigant was de
veloped in the United States De
partment of Agriculture by special
ists in the Bureau of Chemistry
and Soils, the Bureau of Entomo
logy, and the Bureau of Agricul
tural Economics. Tests conducted
by the department's chemical en
gineering division indicate that
with competent supenrision the
fire and explosion- hazards of this
fumigant are reduced to a mini
mum.
