More than a hundred thousand tons of nitrate, originally produced to help in blowing the German armies off the map of Belgium and France, this year will be put to the niorc peaceful work of increasing the fertility of Ameri can farming, soil. After the signing nf Ko nrmutu thu'Wiir neDnrtmeut al .,, f i, nmim-tmont. of Agri culture 111,000 tons of nitrate at a salvage price.

T,M w(.lUllg Wllg act, which provided for its purchase L &mel rKccllU,. and sale by the government to far mers at cost. Through this arrangement it is es timated that 100,000 farmers will save about $1,500,000 according to the open-market price and the $81 a ton f. o. b. shipping point charged by the government. Farmers have taken up the full 151,000 tons in orders ranging from a bag of 200 pounds to an order Ifor 300 tons. The price last year was $75.50 a Ion, f. o. b. shipping points, located at six Atlantic and Gulf ports. The De partment of Agriculture last year ar- ranged for the shipment of 120,000 tons from Chile, but shortage of ship ping space kept the quantity trans ported in time for use last year down to about 75.000 tons. This year's price was announced early in 1919, and ap plication blanks were sent to county agricultural agents for distribution to farmers. Shipments are now being made from 21 storage points, and to date shipping instructions have been sent from Washington to forwarding agents cov ering about 125,000 tons. Records show that about 110,000 tons have actually been shipped, and it is ex pected that the entire 151,000 tons ordered by the farmers will be shipped before the end of May. The Bureau of Markets, which is in charge of the nitrate distribution for the Department of Agriculture, has appointed at each storage point a for warding agent and has charged him with the duty of even-weighing, re conditioning, loading, and shipping the nitrate on orders received from Washv ington. These representatives receive from the Department of Agriculture $1 a year plus the regular commercial rates for services rendered. Where county nitrate requirements are very light, farmers have been re quested to forward cashiers' checks or New York drafts in payment for ni trate at the time of filing their appli cations, after which the nitrate is ship ped direct to them. Where county requirements are comparatively heavy federal nitrate distributors have been appointed by the bureau, on the rceom- Any one owing the La Grande Pharmacy wiil pi ease cail and settle their account at once, either by paying cash or giving note.

' ' ANTHONY & ROBBINS ' (- , vy V A ' American Secures Contract Over lniv lislum-n to Deliver Steel Wsjs. LONDON, April ,1. iCurr'ipoml-: euce of Associated Press.) Vankie enterprise triumphed when the city of Birmingham, planning to replace its street car rails, invited bids foi material. An Alncrichn obtained til.' contract, although two .British 'firm:; asked for it, and' protests have beta so numerous that the municipal gov eminent issued an official statement. One of the British bidders, it was 'explained, agreed to begin delivering fifty tons a week in April but wcul.' not consent to a penalty clause foi non-delivery; the other promised 12K tons' within twenty weeks.- The U: .n in the United States agreed tu com plete delivery by the end of May ami quoted a lower price than either, of tl British manufacturers. The puce and the fact that the authorities were very anxious to complete the work this year were the influencing factors in fivoi of the American bidder. Sending American s'tcel rails to Birmingham is like carrying coal to Newcastle, with the possible exception that the purchase by the city corpora tion of street railway rails made in the United States was because Hirmintr ham thus gdt better rails than if the British product had been used. Councilman Lee, culled upon in the city council to. explain the puicliasc. said rails recently supplied by British manufacturers had not been equal to the committee's standard, the iife of such rails being five years instead of the normal life of filteen years. Aldermnn Bewley declared that lilis statement reflected on the British si trade industry; and another member recalled that a rule of the council for bade tho placing of an order with a foreign country when the value was more than $5000. The controversy ended when a reso lution was adopted approving the pur chase of American rails but reminding the committee of the existence of the rule regarding foreign goods and or dering its enforcement in tile futuie.
