What is more, I say it threatens the very life of this state. . . ” PLANT-FOOD CONTENT IN FERTILIZERS drove to Palm Beach, a town 20 miles north of here, last The only attraction was Dog They have a wonderful track, grand stand and wonderful end but that we might be out of the way as people on the highways here driy<? mostly around sixty per hour and more. We came down through the State of Michigan, Kentucky, Tennesee; Georgia and Florida as far a§ Delray. Florida, of course, extends farther down. We hope, to go down to Mi­ ami before our return. Michigan seemed to be engaged in some sort of farming. When we got into Ken­ tucky among the mountains a new sight to me was the extensive coal mining.- At the foot of a mountain hundreds of feetriiigh there would be an opening about five feet square us­ ed as an entrance to the mine and farther up would be built a chute for the coal to come to the foot of the mountain to be loaded on truck's and transported, to the many different places for use ast fuel. Also trains* with car*after, car linked together tak­ ing some of the coal to Canada. I could plainly see that the mining in­ dustry was what kept the people liv­ ing. Tennesee looked to be a place of starvation although people are liv­ ing there too. Part of the mountains extend about 200 miles into that Georgia, as ‘they tell me, us.ed noted for its timber but not of that work going Op there They seem to be growing to- and some cotton, also some Not very many good, buildings, of cotton was not picked as .......V*. ■. .. .In. jVli ./'■ U| III...!! while the negros were taking life in a happy go lucky way.

This, of course, makes conditions very hard for the people, mostly negroes. As we drove into Florida, we saw some wonder­ ful orange orchards and grapefruit loaded s’o heavily that the branches are touching the ground. The land at least very much it, does not look very promising, acres and acres having been bought up by large estate brok­ ers and never improved and is of veiy poor quality( being a sort of white sand which is gritty enough for build­ ing purposes.

To-day in Canada, only CO persons are dying of tuberculosis Out of every 100,000 and the death rate is steadily declining. If tile same number of persons in proportion to population wore dying from tuberculosis to-day as there were 50 years ago, We would have in Canada thia year over 33,000 deaths—-wo have less than 7,000, a large enough number to be sure, but by comparison it shows that organized work lias been successful.In Ontario last year there were 1.327, deaths from tuberculosis, a death rate of less than 36 per 100,000 population, with probably 6,500 or moto living Victims of this disease within the Prov­ ince. The saddest party is that more than half of those who die er now stiffer from this disease are young people in tile priiho productive period of life.. In spite of the greater diagnostic facilities offered the. public and the improved methods employed, It is still true that only 10-15 per cent, of sana­torium admissions are found to be in the early stages of the disease. This moans that far too many unrecognized cases are still threatening tlieir families and neighbours with Infection.To find the afflicted and to give them treatment and care, is the one aim of the Toronto and Muskoka Hospitals for Consumptives and the Queen Mary Hospital for Consumptive Children. Thon" success depends largely upon the amount ’received through voluntary contributions, for which an urgent appeal is now made. »Ploaso will you help this life-saving work by sending a -gift to National Sanitarium Association, 223 College Street, Toronto. The Fertilizers Act requires defin­ ite guarantees by vendors of the plant food content of their fertilizers, that is, nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash. In addition, these plant food substances must be in an available form for plant use. There are many kinds of 'fertilizers on the market to­ day, all of which are dependable if used according to kind and plant food content on the one hand, and soil and crop requirements on the other. Ev­ ery buyer of fertilizers should study these factors carefully because the proper application of them means so much in obtaining best results. The recommendations of the Pro­ vincial Fertilizer Councils are a safe guide in this respect, and may be ob­ tained from the Departments of Agri­ culture for the provinces.
