cast the ballot of the meeting for   Dr.
J. B. Roe.    Pres. Perry declared   the

IYV" Suggested by a question tbat bad
Y'been asked, Pres. Perry in closing
Z made some remarks   concerning   one
Y phase   of   the   school   problem   that
Y were surely timely and wbicb we wish
Z every citizen of  the  city,   especially
Y every parent, could have heard. It
>; was in reference to the comparatively
Z small number of boys that remain   in
Y school and finish tbe course. Much
■ii\ of thiB he believes is due to tbe fact
Z that too many bave a wrong concep-
Z tion of tbe purposes of an education,
fr Too many regard it only as an in-
%Z strument for money getting, rather
y than a good in itself. Wben people
Zr- realize tbat it is the man wbo orna-

With
Becaase of a general shortage of
materials and the uncertainly of the

order fertilizers for fall grains early
tbis year. Acid phosphate is reported
to be very soiree, and those who
order late will uot oa able to obtain it
at all, warns Dr. M. M   McCool, bead
Mrs.y Byron Briggs, &<*«o tlussel

Those present from a d>3ta.<se« were! of ths Soils Department at the  Michi-
Mr. and Mra. Andrew Oa>«-.y, Mr. and I gan Agricultural College.
"It is advisable tsiat fifteen tons |or
more be ordered in a lot'*, says Dr.
McCool, "since this saves freight to
the consumers, Fertilizer prices are
somewhat-higher tban they were in
tbe spring, but their uae is profitable
when the prices of grains are considered. At the present time it requires abont one bushel of wheat to
pay for 200 pounds of acid phosphate,
and about 2 bushels of rye. To exchange for a 75 pound dressing of
nitrate of soda or ammonium sulphate, about one and one-quarter
bushels of wheat and two bushels of
rye are required."   •
Fertilizer tests on tbe main soil
areas of Michigan, conducted cooperatively by member, of the soils
section of the" college experiment
station, farmers, and county agents,
are showing u p well . tbis year.
Whereyer acid phosphate has been
applied, except to very productive
soils, splendid results . are found.
About thirty top dressing tests with
both nitrate of soda and ammonium
sulphate on rye and wheat growing
on sandy soils tbat have not produc
ed clover for a number of years, or
have not been manured recently,
sbow promise of fine returns.
Where nitrogen is. used it is customary to apply about 25 pounds in
tbe autumn and about 40 to 50 pounds
per acre in the spring,*' just after
jrrowth . begins, according to Dr.
McCool.

Probably most of our readers have
noticed considerable discussion, pro
and con, gojptg on the city press concerning tue amendment to be submitted at fall election, dealing with
pupils in the parocnial schools. We
do not know who initiated tniB movement nor what motive may bave
instigated some of them. The alleged
purpose of the amendment is to compel the attendance of all children
between tbe agea of 5 and 16 years in
tbe public schools. Probably tbe
majority of those initiating the move-,
ment are sincere and believe it would
be best fur the pupils and the great
body oi the people. Secretary of State
Vaughan asked Attorney General
Groesbeck for bis opinion as to the
measure and Ue holds tbat it is - unconstitutional. This would seem to
end the matter unless an appeal is
made to tbe courts and a different
opinion prevails-.
In the discussion of tbis matter
sectarianism has seemed in no way to
prevail. Pres. McKenney of the State
Normal College is utterly opposed to
the amendment and declares that it
is not oniy injust but also unwise as

That a firm packing of .the seed bed '
before summer plantings of alfalfa
often makes the difference between
success and failure with tbe crop, ia
tbe statement of Prof. J. F. Cox,
bead.of the farm crops department
M. A. C. Many Michigan farmers
will seed alfalfa during July, and in
lower Michigan daring early August.
TbeBe men cannot afford to overlook
the importance of a carefully prepared seed bed.
"Alfalfa is being planted in Michigan at the present tim6 witb more
success tban ever before", says Professor Cox. "This is due to the fact
that farmers of the state have learned
the necessity o f using . Northern
grown seed, of using lime, of inoculating seed, aad finally of preparing a
firm, clean seed bed.
"Seed beds can usually be fitted in
excellent shape for midsummer seed-
ings. Were it not for the fact that
midsummer droughts are quite frequent, late July seedings would be
recommended above spring plantings.
As it,is, on gronnd vAbicb ia foul with
grass or weeds, opportunity is given
to eradicate these peats before alfalfa
is planted.
"Seed beds prepared during midsummer are likely to be dry and
asbey, however, and since few packv
ing*rains, as compared with spring,
can be counted on at tbat .time,
special care must be taken to pack
tbe seed beds firmly with roller or
with the cultipacker. A thorough
firming of tbe seed bed often makes
tbe difference between success and
failure with_the crop." •-.-,.-,•
