THE BRIGHT SP?T
A crop that is well fertilized stands dry weather better th^n,,
a 'i'rbt) thai; isnotwell*fertilized. It is stronger and; raore ,f

stands hardships better* ban one that is.not well fed. And as
for shedding-t-cqttbn that is side, dressed does; not shed any
thing like cotton that is not side Pressed. ; The reason cotton
sheds is because it hasn't sufficient plant.food to nourish it,
properly. You fertilize your coUc.rt .when you rjiant it. By

Only * r?w of the 3OJ00O Men N*oo>d
to Bring Army Up to Full Strengt,
'jj \ Have Been Accepted ? Rtgulatlona
Efjfcrcad to tho Letter by Officers in
--Charge;
Unless more ; vigorous enlistment
measures succeed in getting the men
required under the now army bill there
Is likely, to be a shakcup In the re
cruiting branch, of the service. Some
army officers are inclined to complain
that too many applicants for the army
ari* rejected because of strict technical
. Intexpretnllou of the requirements. '.
tj \ j Responsibility tpr recruiting this'; ?rniy
y,p to service requirements under tho
nev7 army bill rests with Adjutant
General H. P. McCain. Officers of the
'army general staff are determined that
the necessary improvement in recruit
ing shall bf affected, and If Adjutant,
General McCaLu cannot produce tho re-'
suits efforts will be mado to find a suc
cessor who can. ,
General McCain is aware of tho-re
sponBibUltiy resting on him. Ho testi
fied before the he-ne military affairs
. committee lost January that under the
voluntary system , of . enlistment the
maximum number of men that can-be
recruited, using all proper methods, la
any oho year would not exceed 50,000.
Tbl? - figure represents only a very
(slight addition to th? army, as the war
.department bos been required annually
to recruit between 30,000 and 40.000
men. to fill vacancies due to expiration
o" enlistment3 and other causes. The
adjutant general Is not prepared to say,
in face of the country's new interest in
the tegular army strength, that 50,000
Is the maximum number that can bo
enlisted Inn year. Ho is prepared to
assume responsibility for getting the
men' req id tod.
"Itfa'up to mo tG get tho men," ho
I said recently in thia connection, "and
1 I'm going "to get them,"s
Many Rejections.
Many ariny officers doubt if the war
department can; without a'Jy .provl
r siov-'V for compulsory - service, get. the
uddltional men /required tinder tho bill
j .for 170,000 fighting men except by de
cidedly .more T?Sy??u? and expedient
reer-?i?u'g measures and possibly . B?rne
change in the way applicants nre.test?
'Cd: ussder ttlie; presopt- recruiting standt'J
: ?rdSJ^ be .the IG^iSS applicants ; Inst
year the war' department rejected
'123,731, <'making the enlistment total
about'; 45,000. General McCain says
thnt^the great number of rejections pi
due/tp the high standard of the army
; rehuirements.
J'. vHe^wever, seme criticism la beard to\
th? effect thalStbo ptandnrds "are. too'
I rigidly enforced, h?d mush more,to.the
effect that:the measures off recruiting
arc not .the best possible. Applicants
for first eh??r^ment must be "between,
tiio Gi;?3 of eighteen and thirty-five
years, of good character and temperate
habits^ ablebodled, free, from disease,
"and muet be able to epeak, read and
write the English language." It is
jM>|nlfea out that th?se ?encrai requiro
^nHBV'hro.subject, to pretty bread !nV
l^^rjeta?on land that possibly: some
j candidates.for%ho army have been re
quired. to r^ead and write better than
was actually necessary for evienja first
