Every farmer Is interested these days in fertilizer. Henry Ford has a plan under way to produce nitrate at a cost much less than at present if he can get the Musell's Shoal3 plant erected by the government during the war in the South. With prices on 'fa rm products at present, levels land owners will in the future be compelled to do more in­ tensive farming. This means more bushels per acre than in the past. Fertilizer is one o f the present day necessities on every farm .'Whether it be o f the commercial type or o f the barn yard variety that yet holds first place as a product to renew and .stimulate land to greater production Some few years ago we called at­ tention to a form of fertilizer that can be found in out midst yet never used to any great extent. This is the lime sludge to be found in the paper miR reservoirs. We know o f only one instance where this was used. I t was used to cover a good sized garden o f poor soil, in reallity -raw clay. The garden had failed to produce enough garden crops to pay for tend­ ing it.'A fte r the sludge was used it became productive the first season and has been so ever since. This is proof that such, used as a fertilizer would he valuable particularly on land that needed lime and humus. We were interested in reading an article a few days ago in the Paper Trade Journal on this same subject. The |article tells o f observations last summer at Stevens Point, Wis. where Robert K. McDonald, a business man that had a model dairy farm right outside that city. Mr. McDonald de­ cided to try an experiment) by using lime sludge from a nearby mill in comparison with commercial lime­ stone. In the'fall o f 15120 he applied first a top dressing o f manure1 and then with a manure spreader, he cov­ ered about 27 acres with lime sludge in the ratio o f about four or five tons o f moist sludge to the acre. This-field was prepared in the usual manner and planted in corn in the spring. On another field he applied sludge to about five acres which was subse­ quently planted with clover. A t this juncture in the article the reader’s attention was called to two photographs that had been taken the same day showing the condition of two pieces o f corn that had been planted the same day. The writer1in the Paper Trade Journal states that he visited the Me Donald farm the latter part o f Aug­ ust. when he observed for himself the marked difference o f the corn that had -only commercial limestone and that where the lime sludge was used. The corn from land with limestone was yet gteen and undeveloped while the corn where sludge was used was fully developed and ripe. As to the weather conditions in that section the spring and summer had been unusual­ ly dry and -it had not ruined for months. The soil where sludge was used was quite moist a couple inches under the surface and on no other plac had mature ears been develop­ ed. The condition o f the clover fields showed a similar difference. Where there had been an application o f the sludge the growth o f clover was very luxuriant, otherwise it was scanty. The great, deposit of this sludge that accumulate about the paper mill reservoirs should be made use o f by the farmers in this section. The experience o f Mr. McDonald we be­ lieve could be duplicated in this sec­ tion by most any farmer. COLLEGE NOTES Gedarville College students were • well supplied with chapel talks ast* week.

She de­ scribed how thousands and thousands of students in (European Universi­ ties labored in the majority .of cases living on about one fourth the' ration necessary for. proper ' living and study. Very few have more than one change o f clothing and perhaps after being out in the rain and the snow they must come to their rooms where six or seven o f them stay with no fire and no bedding except a pile of straw. American students are toy­ ing to alleviate their conditions as much as possible through the Y . M. and Y. W. C. A ’s. American students have pledged ?500,000 to this work. Gedarville College's share is about $175 and we are going to go over the top when the drive is made this week. Let’s everybody help boost?

Bring the children in on bright lays for phedoe at T aw '* Studio, a great convenience to auto owners in this section of the county to come here for their licenses. The next is that the village can only get its share o f the auto license money On cars as are registered from Cednrville. From what we have observed and the complaints we hear from other towns o f this size the amount o f this license received is not in proportion to the actual number o f cars owned here. The license money ‘ is divided one half to the state and one half to the villages and cities. ' The state then remits a certain1 part of the first half hack to the counties but none of this money come directly ..back to the townships. This money can only be used for street repair or work on the roads by the commissioners. It can be readily seen then the necessity of .registering your car from Cedar- ville that this, money come back for street repair. The villages are being unjustly treated in the matter of finances! Un­ der the tax limit law the state takes whatever it wants; the county comes next; the Schools next; if there is anything left the townships and the villages come in for a share. The Herald has at* previous times times mentioned this matter. Now that auto licenses must be secured we call your attention to the neces­ sity of. seeing that your car is regis­ tered from Ccdarville as the taxing district. Opr streets show the need o f material and labor fo r repair bpt this cannot be done unless the money is forthcoming.. Keep this in mind when making out your blanks. We hope the Exchange Bank, will make, an effort to get some o f the tags fo r distribution hare. We think the bank would be doing a real ser­ vice fo r our pflflplfc. U th« state de­ partment can trust one bank we see no reason why our local bank can not be recognized. There is no pay in this work for anyone but we hope something can be done to pro­ vide the village with additional funds for street repair—and this money will be forth coming if you register your car from Ccdarville. JUDGE KYLE CALLED TO ASSIST IN DARKE COUNTY Judge C. H, Kyle has been called upon to assist the Darke County prosecuting attorney in trying the ?ase of County 'treasurer, Dan Brown charged with embezzlement o f the county funds. While the Judge ser­ ved on the bench lie presided over a number o f cases wherein county offi­ cials were tried fo r similar charges. His decisions in the cases attracted much attention over the state. EVIDENCE NOT SUFFICIENT No charge was filed against Char­ les Fisher following the raid on his home on the paper mill farm last Thursday. The deDutiC3 found two barrels, one empty, the other with a very small quantity o f light Wine. It was found on examination that the wine was non intoxicating. Under the law a man can have 200' gallons o f this for his own use. The raid was the result o f several paper mill employ­ ees getting intoxicated. Mr. Fisher has been employed at the mill but is preparing to move back to Dayton. NEW STRAW BUYER. E. S.
