NUMBERS CAUSE OF CONFUSION

Considerable trouble la being experienced by registration officials in charge of the registration ot voters for the November general elections, because of the fact that many bouses on the west side of Richmond carry numbers which do not correspond with the numbers shown on the plat at the city engineer's office. It Is not known how - this came about, but according to the registration clerks there has been considerable carelessness someplace either in the number of the houses or the making out of the city maps. A man registered from 326 West Fifth street, and said he lived in the thirty-third precinct. According to the city engineer's plat of Richmond all the numbers north of Peacock road should be above 400. This would put the registrant in the thirty-second precinct As a matter of fact, however, the registration clerks said that he really did live in precinct No. 33. Too many foreign born citizens, the clerks say, are trying to register without bringing their naturalization paper with them.' There are questions to be answered by foreign born voters which require reference to the naturalization papers. The clerks request all foreign born voters to bring their first naturalization papers to the court house when they register.

Safe Farming Fertilizing Value of Farm Manure

MANURE

m n IIE annual manure crop or the United States amounts to over $500,000,-

II 000. There is a loss of over $100,000,000 of this amount because of the . II careless handling of manure. Manure represents fertility which is drawn from the soil by crops and must be returned to It if productlveEiess Is to be maintained. Manure not only adds to the store of plant food in he soil by returning a large per cent of the nitrogen and potash removed by Tops, but it also renders the native plant food of the soil more available. No substitute at present known is capable of completely filling the place f farm manures, and notwithstanding its great value there is probably no inaterlal on the farm In which so great and needless a waste occurs. A waste ! of manure at this time is a na

tional tragedy. The U. S. Department of Agriculture, In a statement issued by Carl Vroomen, asks its conservation as a war measure, i

The farmers of the country should be urged to carefully conserve all the manure on the farms, and to see that it is applied to the soil just as quickly as possible. Thousands of experiments and results proved in actual practice show conclusively that manure if not properly applied to the soil will lose from 20 to 30 per cent in fertility value. ! , Manure should not be put upon the land in piles. It should be carefully spread. !

' Experiments conducted in Ohio for 16 years give 6ome striking results f the wonderful benefits of manure in Increased crop production. j Attention is called to the accompanying chart. " ! The manure accumulating at the various cantonment camps, where thousands of head of stock are kept, should be utilized and the government Is seeing to It that this manure reaches the fields from which we are to fbtaln our food and feed. i At Camp Grant, Illinois, there are approximately 12,000 head of horses and mules. The accumulated manure from these animals for one year at the trices paid for fertilizer at this time Is worth more than $50,000. Starting a campaign of education to Impress upon the farmers of the country the great need of conserving manure and applying it to the land Immediately after It is produced so that all of its fertilizing value wAll be preaurvvd would be a great step toward increasing food production,

STUPENDOUS HEAJltlNTEMST.SPECTACLE-' S

Our story deals with the lives, the hopes, the sufferings of a son and daughter of Belgium. Never before in the history of the world has a people been so crucified. Two courses lay before it safety with dishonor on the one hand, destruction, with honor unsullied, on the other. Proudly this gallant nation chose the latter course, dying heroically in defense of freedom and civilization as the Spartans under Leonidas died at Thermopylae, in order that the barbaric hordes from the East might not engulf and destroy the civilization of Greece and the world. In the centuries to come there will be no prouder boast, no higher honor than this "I am a Belgian.' '
