Nor FEMALE PRIsoNER.--At half past
ten o'clock last night there was not fe-
male prisoner in the first Precinct station.
The Texas man brought in from Dryades
street, with a pocket full of gold and cur

one woman on the charge of robbery, if he
himself had not been arrested, and thus
kept out of thieving clutches.

DRYADEs STREET SwNDLED.-Some Of
the police officers are unworthy men, be
cause they will not let the thieves and
harlots of Dryades street go through their
victims. A Texan named ALBRIGHT was
playing a humping game on Dryades
street last night, when ALBRIGHT was ar
rested by policeman, while the other pro
lessor of thumps made his escape. ALBRIGHT
had when brought to the station $l55 in
gold and currency, of which the officer de-
frauded the harlots of Dryades, for as the
prisoner was drunk he would shortly have
been tolled into some den of infamy.

o'clock, St. Charles street was enlivened by
the whoOping cries Of prisoner, whom two
peelers were escorting to the first precinct
station. He yelled and he whOOped, he
cursed the officers freely, and invited them
to break his arm or neck or heart. The pris-
oner proved to be that nice young man, E. B.

EAST TENNESSEE, FEB. 18TH, 1917.
MEssRs. EDITORS ALL lands are not
adapted to plaster or gypsum ; and conse
quently if you have not been in the habit
of using plaster on your land you bad bet
ter begin sparingly: that is, not use a
great deal until you havc tested it on your
particular soil. On dry land it will oft'n
IN rease your crop of clover nine hundred
per cent, that is, you will get ten loads
of hay where you would only get one with
out it. On marshy or wet lands where
the water stands in the Winter or Spring,
I have never known it to do any good
whatever. 1 am often asked when to SOW
plaster, how much to SOW to the acre, and
in what state to SOW it. whether wet or
dry? 1 answer, always sow your plaster
between the first and middle of April,
later will not do near so well. L have
seen half or wo-tbirds lost by late SOW
in: never mind whether there are clover
leaves to catch it or not, it is not the
leaves it is the ground that is benefited.
One-balf bushel per acre d~ampened, but
not made wet so as to stick together, is
the proper quantity, either with OF with
eat ashes. If you SOW dry plaster 1t is
impossible to get it regularly applied as
as the dust will Fly in every direction and
sometimes fall two or three handfulls in
the same place. Two men may start to
farm equal in every respect, and in a fe"
years the one who sows plenty of clover
and plaster, and practices a regular i've
years rotation, Tor six or seven II the land
Is poor9 will be worth double the other
who farms after the common East Tennes-
see fashion.
A good rotation is the following: y
soil fitted for corn, plowed early and deep,
then oats, then wheat, then clover two or
three years with plaster. You may cut
off the full crop of clover and haul
back the litter on the ground, but do not
pasture it down when young, or you lose
all the good effects Of the land.
What | write I know from actual ex-
perience, and do not wish you, dear read
err. to class my articles with those written
by literary men who know nothing about
farming. l propose to revolutionize the
farming in East Tennessee, aud, therefore,
call on all good farmers in this locality
for help. by writing to your papers the
results of their experience. L do not ask
you to display great literary genius, but
let farmers scrite, and write like farmers
the honest facts, and not fine spun the
cries. o. W. F. p.

Small Farmers Maxims.

A man signing himself j. w. r. in
the Greensboro On Co. thus gives his rea-
sons for believing that in general, small
farms pay better than large ones:
4. Small farms are cheaper and easier
to manage than large ones, and pay bet
ter for the capital invested. Therefore,
small farms are the best.
2. If you want to make your farm pay
you must give it your daily personal at
t~ention. But if your farm is too large
you cannot do this hence, as said above,
small farms are the best.
8. If you don't wan your farm to run
away, you must stop the little leaks
We may expect fewer leaks on a small
place than a big one hence again, small
farms are the best.
4. Feed your land well, and it will feed
you. 1t takes less to feed a few acres
than a great many. So you see small
farms are best.
5. IF you would live long and enjoy
lll6. HOIh u llIbiC, lhCh 2 " AAShiN.
But if you have a large farm you must
labor all the time. Here again, small
farms are best.
s6. To raise big corn, you must keep
small grass. To make small grass. you
cut often. So in this We find small farms
the best
q. If you nave a good fence, you need
fear no loss by stock. But fences are
costly. Thus once more we find small
farms the best.
8. If you want good roads, and plenty
of schools, churches, and mills, you must
have o dense population. If farms are
large this is impossible. Therefore, L
