ASHES AS FERTILIZER.
The Crops to Whose Use They Are More
Especially Adapted.

The Crops to Whose Use They Are More
| Espccinlly Adapted.
Those families who depend upon
wood for a supply of fuel. make more
or less ashes according to the amount
of fuel consumed. These being OF
vegetable origin arc supposed to con
tain, as their analysis shows, those
important mineral elements that enter
| into the composition of tho various
crops. They are especially rich in
potash, one of the most important ele-
ments of some crops. While the agri-
cultural value of ashes is well under
stood in some eases. in others it is not
properly recogniz-1. and they do not
occupy the prominence that their value
demands.
Different sections of country place u
different estimate upon ashes as regards
their desirability. Where held in tho
highest esteem they are used in large
quantities. In Fairfield and New Lon
don counties in the State of Connecti-
cut, they are quite extensively used
and are brought in from Canada by the
Car load. There are, pastures in Fair
field County that produced very little
feed. and that of an inferior quality,
that by the use of ashes alone have
been brought up to state in which
there was Il vigorous growth of clover
and valuable grasses. This condition
has been secured even upon hillsiles
where the soil seemed to be gravel.y
and hardly fitted to maintain plant lite.
1t must DO left for science to deter
mine what the entire action of ashes is
upon soil of the character indicated
to work such remarkable results. The
application must be made upon n dry,
sandy or gravelly soil to secure the
most marked results.
While ashes are adapted to use for
most crops, they produce greater re-
suits in some cases than in others.
They are of value to the corn crop, and
though the potato is classed as belong
ing to potash plants, we have never de-
rived satisfactory results from the use
of ashes. The most noticeable effect
seems to follow their application upon
grass ana moving lands.
With this view we have applied ashes
to moving lands and observed results
until we feel confident that upon rea-
sonably dry surfaces thoy will cause a
greatly increased growth of tho prin-
cipai GRASSES, and senm to exert pc
culiar influence in induci ng the growth
OF both red and white clover where none
existed before. Late last spring an APP
plicatlon was made to moving land
That had become considerably reduced;
lhe effect was felt but little when tho
irst crop was cnt, but later there was
beautiful growth of red clover where |
none appeared before. There is little
ioubt but that farmers had better p,,r-
chase ashes for use upon moving lands |
nan to purchase commercial fertilizers

AN IMMENSE CLAIM.
A Suit for the Recovery OF Forty Million
Dollars Worth of Property.

Suit for the Recovery OF Forty Million
Dollars Worth of Property.
Some st. Louis attorneys are now
preparing documents for forty claim
ants who are to bring suit for the re-
covery Of $40.000.000 of property To-
Gated in the heart of that city. and com
prising twenty blocks lying chiefly be-
tween Third street on tho east, Jeffcr-
son avenue on the west. Olive street on
the north, and Pine street on the south.
The claimants are some of the heirs of
Jean B. Becquettr. The property is
known Us survey 90l, and was con-
firmed to the legal representatives of
Becqnctts by an act of Congress passed
April 20, 1916. The land was surveyed
in 1926, and the survey returned to the
recorder of land titles for the United
States in July, 1928. According to the
record in the case, Marguerite Hortiz
(born Becquettc). in August, 1885. con-
veyed all her interest in said land to John
B. Lucas. Lucas interest. it is assert
ed, was only an undivided half there
in. Marie Barada (born Becquettc)
and her children, it seems. were heirs
also to one undivided half of the prop
erty, and it is her descendants who are
now about to take measures to enforce
their rights and claim to this undivided
half This means that the title to more
than $40. .000, 900 worth of property will
be tested. One of the attorneys who
has the matter in charge. N. o. Gray,
was at one time one of Mrs. Myra Clark
Gaines lawyers. and has for a number
ofyears been connected with important
land litigations in Missouri. Some of the
finest and costliest private residences.
banks and business houses of St.
Louis are situated on the disputed terri !
tory. The ground is valued at $50, ,OOO,-
600, and the buildings at $4,000, 900. |
Some very nice and intricate questions
will come up in the course of the litiga-
ton; but, it is well-known fact Of
law that the statute of limitations
never runs against atenant in common,
and If it can be proven that the heirs
and descendants are and have been ten
ants in common, then their claim can
not be barred; but the question will
hinge upon whether the grantees of
Mrs. Marguerite Hortiz have by their
acts invoked the aid OF the statute of
limitations by holding, as against the
heirs Of her sister, open and notorious
exclusive poss ession of the property in
question. Lonis Republican.

Death of a French Patriot.

Marshall Bazaine died in Madrid Sept. 30
of heart disease.
Francois Achille Bazaine was born at
Versailles, France, Feb. 10, 1911. Although
as thosOn of prominent and wealthy army
officer he could have got an officers com
mission in the army, he preferred TO seek
his marshars baton, won in 1864, in the
knapsack Of private soldier. His active
service began in Africa in 1888 and continu-
ed through all the French campaigns to
1870, 35 years in all, of which 32 were passed
in campaigns, in the course of which he re-
ceived six wounds or COMMISSIONS. In the
war with Prussia in 1870 by the cOncentra-
ton of all invading armes into the "Armee
du Rim under the Emperor, Marshal
Bazaine had only single corps under his
command instead of an entire army.
BY "a series of defeats the emperor and
MacMahon, Bazaine's competitors, were
overthrown, and the latter found himself at
the head of the army of the Rhine. But he
could not concentrate and reorganize the
demOralized army in time 10 prevent a
crushing defeat at Mitz, by which he was
obliged tD surrender his army Of 10000
mon, Oct "a, 1870. He was arraigned be-
fore court martial charged with having
capitulated 10 the enemy and surrendered
his army before ne had exhausted all his

trial he was found guilty and sentenced to
be degraded and shot. with the recon
mendation from the court that tho sentence
be not carried out because of BaZaines
former brilliant service and the Circum-
stances under which he received the com
mand Of the army His sentence was com

Condition of State Crons.

Sergt. Conger says in his crop and
weather service report for Michigan, for
week ending Sept. %: The weather con
ditions have been very favorable to the
growing crops, and the copious rains have
put the ground in condition for the fall
seeding, which is now being rapidly pushed.
The wheat will be nearly all seeded by the
last Of next week. In the southeastern
part of the state the rain was not sufficient
for soaking the ground and more is needed
Corn-cutting and potato digging were pro-
crossing rapidly, until the rain made the
condition of the ground ready for wheat,
when the seeding took the place of the har-
vest. The farmers are well pleased with
the conditions at present. Pastures have
been materially improved by the rains
The cool weather did not affect crops, as
the rainfall Offset any effect it would other
wise have.
