The   incjiriry   hy     Lehigh     Countv Commissioners   into   the   conduct   of tho County Treasurer's oflice by  Ue- ville li.  Sell  was begun  .Monday,  be¬ fore County Controller Cyrus J. Dil- (dier.     For  many  moons  Judge Grj- man had been preaidiing in his quar- lerly addresses lo  the  Lehigh  Grand Jury that the .ounty ought to receive inlerest on ils deposits,  which range ! to moro than    half a  million  a  year.' Tho matter    came    lo    a crisis when | Treasurer   Sell   declined   to   honor   a' request   from   the   CumniissionerH   lo invest f75,000 in the Fourth Liboriy Loan.
Tho offilers of the Kmaus National Uaiik In which treasurer Sell has al¬ ways made all his deposits, were subpoenaed. Treasurer Sell persis¬ tently denied in all tho talk created by tho demand for invesligalion to" I that he was guilty of any wrong. I
The "nigger in tho woodpile" came] out very ijuickly when he admilteil, ' as first witness in the investigation, that he was employed by the Emaus Bank os a runner at a salary of $ lliOD a year. He said he collecled the de¬ posits of tho people of tho village of -Mounlainsville, where he lives, and takes them lo the banit several linu-, a week, incidentally taking along ihc counly  deposits.
11.   Lorentz   .Miller,   cashier   of  the bank, lestilied  that  the \ illage deiio- sils amount to about  !f4O(),OO0 a year and  those of    tho    county     to about *r,oo,(JOO, but  he    denic'd     that     tiie bank  i)aid Mr. Sell in    any way     fo.v the county deposits.     Questioning by County   Solicitor   Francis  J.   Gild ier and  Claude T.  Ueno, Special  counsel lor  the  Commissioners,   brought  on' that none of the    other    runners    is paid as much as Mr.    Sell, the    next highest getting $4,50 a year.     It was also incidentally revealed that the sal¬ ary  jiaid  by  the     bank     to     County , Treasurer Sell  as     runner is exactly i the  salary of the president    of     thei hank.     Mr.   Sell   was  a   depositor  In ' the bank before he was employed as a runner suliseqirently to his election a.s  County  Treasurt.T. j
Mr Sell was cautioned by hL^^ i counsel, George W Lutz, not to waive his constitutional rights in the matter of answering certain fiuesti- ons, but he several times broke from his lawyer. Once ho passed the lie. and asked whether he had any notes in the Emaus Bank retorted: "That's none of your business. You pay your debts and I will try and pay mine,"
Treasurer Sell paid he had been so¬ licited by other bank.s for the county deposits, but il turned out it was to bo on a haRis of 3 per cent, on depos¬ its. Several hank presidents and di¬ rectors, financiers and politicians re¬ main to be called a.; the investiga¬ tion  i>roceods.

The following remarks are intended to offer a few sugges¬ tions along these lines.
.N'itrate of soda carries its nitrogen iu the form of nitrates a.< the name will   indicate
soil must be in the form of nitratfe before it can be of any us lo the plants, it will be at once irnderstoo 1 that nitrogen In this form will be¬ come available as soos as it is dis¬ solved In tho soil water.
