By !rfeor H. V. Tartar. Oiwwm Agricultural Colli-ns. Chemical investigations have shown that all substances are made up of cer tain simple forms of matter, such as iron, aluminum and carbon, which are called elements. In moat substances these elements are combined in a more or less complex form. Although some eighty of these elementary forms of matter have been discovered, only about a dozen of these are found in any quantity in plants. Carbon, hy drogen, oxygen and nitrogen make up about ninety-five per cent of the total weight of all plants, i. e., their or ganic portion, and are derived either directly or indirectly from air and wa ter, the nitrogen being assimilated by the plant after fixation in the soil. The remaining five per cent , of the plant consists of mineral matter or ash, the portion left when the plant is burned, and is composed mainly of the elements of iron, aluminum, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, silicon, chlorine and sulfur. These are all taken up by the plant directly from the soil. Much investi gation and experience has proven that only four of these elements are' likely to be deficient in a soil, namely, nitro gen, potassium (generally expressed as "potash") phosphorus, (usually ex pressed as "phosphoric acid") and cal cium, (or "lime," as it is generally expressed.) These are often termed the "critical" soil elements, and ra the actual basis of all rl'mct fui tiliz ers. It is singular to note that only very small quantities of these plant foods which are so essential to plant growth are Soluble even in strong acids. Rich soils contain approximately 0.20 per cent of total nitrogen. Analysis of the acid soluble mineral substance will show about 0.10 to 0.15 per cent of phosphorus (phosphoric acid), 0.30 per cent of potassium, (potash), and 0.50 per cent of calcium (lime). , The figures show plainly that proper and scientific methods of farming must be practiced for the maintenance of the fertility of even our richest soils. The most important of these critical soil elements is nitrogen. It is com bined jvith other elements in the soil humus (decaying animal and vegetable matter). In the free state nitrogen is a gas and in this form constitutes three-fourths of the air. The total nitrogen supply in the air over each acre of the earth's surface, if avail able to plants, would meet the needs of a hundred-bushel crop of corn every year for half a million years. Never theless nitrogen in available form is worth 18 to 20 cents a pound in the fertilizer markets. The organic mat ter in the soil is the nitrogen store house from which plants derive their supply. Constant removal by crops, oxidation of organic matter in clean cultivation as well as waste through leaching, all assist in depriving the soil of this essential element. Exper ience has shown that under exhaustive systems of farming the soil nitrogen supply is easiest impaired. To add available nitrogen to the soil in the form of commercial fertilizers costs from 18 to 20 cents a pound, which make it too expensive for use on a general farming scale. Experiments have shown, however, that leguminous crops, such as clover, vetch, and al falfa, have power to obtain free ni trogen from the air through the inter vention of certain microscopic organ isms which live in tubercles upon the roots of these plants. Such crops add nitrogen to the soil, and hence rota tion with a leguminous crop is an in expensive and efficient means of sup plying this element to the soil and one that is applicable to general farming. The mineral plant foods, potassium, phosphorus and lime, exis-t in the soil in variuos forms: potassium often in combination with quartz in the min eral feldspar; phosphorus in combina tion with iron, aluminum and lime as phosphates; and lime often in the form of silicate and carbonate (lime stone). . These compounds are by chemical processes, which ure encour aged by tillage, converted into soluble or available rorms wnicn can De as similated by plants. The plarit can only obtain these mineral elements from the soil and when the supply be comes deficient they must be furnished through the addition of appropriate fertilizers. The fact that ordinary wood ashes are so rich in potash as to be valuable as fertilizer indicates that certain plants withdraw large amounts of this element from the soil. Six tons of well cured alfalfa hay contain 150 pounds of potash, which would cost about $7.50 if bought in the form of a fertilizer in the open market. Pot ash is usually stored in the seeds of plants in relative abundance. During Germany's Flower City.

London Truth. plant growth this clomont looma to aid materially in the building up of the starches and augnrs of the plant. Potassium may be supplied to the soil by applications of muriate of potash, sulfate of potash, or kainite. Phosphorus is a chief component of the seed and fruit of the plant. A ton of wheat bran contains about 24 pounds of phosphorus. The nucleus of every living coll of plants is rich in phosphorus. This element is taken up from the soil in the form of salts called phosphates, but within the plant it enters into the composition of complex organic compounds. It may be supplied to the soil in the form of bone meal or phosphate rock. Dis solved bone and acid phosphate are readily soluble forms of phosphorus obtained by treating bones or rock phosphate with sulfuric acid and are used when quick acting phosphate is desired. Lime is absolutely essential to the normal growth and development of all agricultural plants, but for grain crops the amounts positively necessary are not large. Legume plants are heavy lime feeders. In the form of carbonate, lime plays an important part in keeping the soil neutral by combining with the acids which devel op in the decay of vegetable matter. It is also a prerequisite for the proper bacterial activity of the soil. Heavy clay soils are made more friable by lime applications, and on the other hand, through its cementing action, sandy soils are rendered more compact and less leachy. Lime in the form of carbonate seems to aid materially in making other plant foods in the soil more available. Land plaster (sul fate of lime) has the property of ren dering the potash in the soil more available, hence the benefit generally noted on applying this substance to leguminous crops. Concerning Oregon soils it may be said that analyses of several hundred samples from various parts of the state prove them to be rich generally from the chemical standpoint. A table showing the average total nitro gen and acid soluble plant tooa con tent of our soils is herewith submitted classifying the results of analyses made at this station up to 1910 under three divisions.

HI l.a Southern Uretcun O.lL' 0.;il 0.1a 1.65 The soils of Western and Southern Oregon are generally rich in nitrogen because of their high content of or ganic matter which, is due to climatic conditions favorable to humus forma tion. These soils are almost univers ally rich in phosphorus. The lime content of Southern Oregon soils is usually high while some of the Wil lamette valley soils are apparently de ficient in this element. These soils are in the main quite well supplied with potash. The semi-arid soils of Eastern Oregon, on the other hand, do not have the good supply of humus and nitrogen of the soils of the West ern part of the state. This fact is due undoubtedly to the difference in climatic conditions. The Eastern soils are rich in their content of mineral plant foods.

In answer to the question, "What are the five great racos of mankind?" a Chinese student replied, said Bishop Montgomery at the anniversary of the Society for the 1'iopagatlon of the Gospel, reports the London Mall, "the hundred yards, the hurdles, the quar ter mile, the mile and the three miles." In another paper a Chinese student said that "Out of sight, out of mind," could be explained la two words, "Invisible, insane." . 1 t"'fJ. J Jo I o f . Fashion H1FLKS In fashion count for a good deal those days. It (h nt the h on so n of the year when nil maimer of clever tulnKS are Invented to catch the eyo of thono who coiiKiatuliito tht'iiiHelvea that tholr shopping In finished. This Is a ruse of the merchants to empty the purse of the buyer. Business, uuist proceed, even though the weather Is hot and vacation ttiuo Is at hnud. Also the dreHHiunkers swing the fashions around, here and there, to Interest their patrons and to get away from routine. In the first or the ocasoii, when the new clothes are brought over from Purls, the models are copied by the hundred to an alarming extent. Now It Is time to In. trod nee Innovations, and ho we see quaint nnd attractive things In every gathering of women. It might be said with truth and emphasis that the pub lic Is rt'sponalbla for this variety of fashions more tnnn the dressmakers. It Is hard to got one of the latter to depart from the French models or the crinoline patterns which she bus In the workroom. If she Is thrown on her own resources Bho enn do remark ably good designing, but for ine rea son that she does not explain sho never gives herself a chance for Indi vidual experiment. No matter how many patrons she tins, she follows (or each a model Hint she brought from abroad, If she Is a big Importer, or she copies a sketch In n fiifhlon book If sho Is a little dressmaker. Blue Serna Gowns. It Is rather wonderful to observe the popularity of the one piece suit of thin blue serge. It has been amazing ly developed In the last four weeks, and has all manner of Indlvidiinl touches that make It worth while. ' It Is a good kind of gown for every woman to Include In her wardrobe. It may not stand for any one occasion, but may serve for half a hundred. It la Just this kind of gown that Is avail able for all changes of climate and unexpected tripfi. It can be worn with or without a coat, and In many ways pays fur Itself over and over. The favorite model Is an Empire skirt, more or less wldu at the hem, according to our new measurements, which run from a yard and a half to two yards and a qunrtor. The pnnol down the back Is rarely eliminated and the fastening Is In front. There may be folds of tho serge or surah or taffeta, either In blue or black, to cut off the length, and If one Is averse to a narrow skirt, fashion allows an In serted box plait at each side from hips down. The skirt, rising moderately on the bodice. Is stitched to It with throe rows of machine niching. It Is hung on a four-Inch band of r,llk belting, which Is fastened with hooks nnd eyes In front. The bodice Is also attached to this belting, which preserves a neat look around the waist, although the skirt does not curve In to fit. Tho cut of the bodice Is much fuller than It has been. The short k'mono aleevos are used and the under-arm senm Is long, but there are tucks or plaits that run over the shoulder, or begin at tho waist and make for fullness over the bust nnd under arms. The arrange ment of the neck Is a matter of Indi vidual preference, and there Is ftl ways an undersleeve, or the simulta tion of one at tho elbow. One of the most attractive of these sultB worn by a girl who knows how to dress has a plain skirt with panel down front and back, nnd a flve-lndf hem of the material finished with rows of black silk stitching. It is about three Inches higher than the normal waist line and curved very slightly at the sides. The bodice is folded in to It, stitched down, and has a long wedge of white mallne net In the shape of a vest that runs Into a bfgh-boned stock. Cotton-Figured Net. One of the materials that have come into being at the beginning of the hot weather Is the figured cotton net that we bad with us several seasons ago. It Is usually In blue and white, ak though one can find It In two or three other color combinations. Blouses are made of It to wear over low silk slips or fine muslin corset covers run through with colored ribbon. These net blouses, you know, are quite the fashion and are Immensely popular for warm days, with suits that have a dressy atmosphere. Some women wear them In the morning with plain linen suits, but they look more fit In the afternoon or for lunch eon. The coarse-figured ones are made In kimono style or with the revived armhole and shoulder seam. They have a double-plaited frill down the front, finished with a hem of blue net or cluny lace, and are fastened with white crochet buttons down the front. The high collar Is made in folds with a turnover band at the top of heavy lace. The sleeves are finished with a tight folded cuff fastened with cro chet buttons at the back. The net la also used for over drapery. It takes the place In soma gowns of chiffon cloth or marquisette, lino good-looking gown Is of very thin blue mesHallne made with a plain em pire slip with the nut draped Into a long tunic which opens In front, tin the light side crossed well over the loft, and Is bordered with a half Inch plaiting of blue satin ribbon, which matches the figure In the lift. The short-wntsted bodice I unusii nUy full for thexa days, has n deep, round gutmpe of thin French lace which only extends to the collar bout). The empire girdle la made from three hnmlM of box plaited ribbon finished with a twisted circle of blue ribbon In front and two long ends. There ars undursleevus of Inco which bung free of the elbow nnd are shaped to a rounlod point at the backhand tho up per sleeves of the figured net ars edged with the plaited blue ribbon. As an economtcnl suggestion It would be well to think of this not a a covering for an evening gown tliat needs repairing and that has seen Its best days. Stripped of Its gewgaws and reduced to a simple slip, It could mm be covered with figured net nt small expense. One email point would be wise for every woman to remember, that tho rlrnpery of today does not come to tho foot lino of tho lower skirt. It mops about six Inchon above. It Is usual y looped up in some IiikIiIoii at the side and Is often fin ished with a three-Inch band of col ored or figured lloral satin or a rucfi int. White Wash Frocks. It has been repeated so often thnt all white wash frocks are not In first fashion, that one Is apt to become tiresome by referring to It. However, it seems worth while to say that a compromise has been effected be-, twoen fashion and tradition by the In vention of charming gowns of whits voile and marquisette which have all the earmarks of the best lingerie frocks and are trimmed with dashing lines of color to give them a novel effect. There seems no end to tho fashion for eyelet embroidery, and It Is used more on vollo and marquisette than on muslin, possibly becauso one treos more of the former fabr'.cs than of the latter. Plain white wash material Is not even used for everyday frocks. It has glvon way to striped muslins In violet and white, brown and ecru, black and white, blue and white. There are many other combinations, both in stripes, In pin dots and In circles, and one sees a dozen of these gowns to one of the old-fashioned plain white lawn. A dainty style is shown In the IN lustration, made In -cambric; groups of fine tucks with strips of Insertion in between form trimming at top of .bodice; lace is used for edging, and ribbon Is threaded through Insertion and finished off with bows. A piece of insertion is taken round at about the knees, ribbon is threaded through and arranged In loopy bows at the right side of front; pieces of Insertion Dolhted at the ends are let In at Intervals; a frill of soft lace fin ishes the foot. Materials required: Four yards 88 inches wide, about live yards Inser tion, six yards ribbon, 2 yards wlds and 2i yards narrow lace.
