Cultivating Corn.

Most people commit great error in
cultivatins corn by blowing too deep.
This is crop that should be cultivated as
level as possible. AS the Warrenton Ga
zette aptly says & corn is a plant which
has large number of long roots near
the surface of the soil, and whenever
the soil is disturbed so deeply as to cut
the surface roots the plant is necessarily
weakened by having its supply of nour-
ishment decreased. A constant supply
of food is just as necessary to the grow
ing plant as to the growing animal, and
cutting many Of the roots when the
plant is growing rapidly frequently
gives the plant check from which it
never fully recovers.''

AFLoAT UNDER GROUND.
Some of the DarE>, Mysterious Lakes
Throughout the Country.

Several years ago the writer entered
Howes. Cave N. Y. and followed along
what possibly had been the bed of
subterranean stream for mile ana d
half
Water was everywhere dripping from
the roof, and here and there huge masses
Of the ceiling had dropped oostructing
the Old channel or tunnel.
Nearly two miles from the entrance we
came to a lake as dark and mysterious
q sheet of water as could be imagined.
The wall was low, and by the f1ick5ring
torch the uncanny body of water could
be seen extending some distance. Enter
ing a fiat boat we rOWed away for an
eighth of a mile; now STOPPING to avoid
the ceiling, humping into peat rocks that
jutted into the lake, following an uncer-
tain course. How deep the water was
] did not learn but it was supposed to
be a portion of a Subterranean stream
or river.
l went a mile beyond here underground
and was inclined to the belief that the
lake was a large pocket in the cave into
which the water from the outside found
its way, though the guide stated that
the level never increased after rains, al
ways remaining the same.
In all limestone regions subterranean
streams are found, the percolation of
water through the crust seems to havs
worn away the rock into regular channels
through which placid streams flow lioise-
lessly, and in which fishes and various
kinds find their homes.
In South Carolina a number of these
streams are found and near Charleston
there are evidences of a large and deep
subterranean lake, forty or fifty miles in
length and of unknown depth. This hes
long been familiar to the colored people
who invest it with mysterious powers;
and there arc legends of peoples who have
gone into the various pools and come
out at other entrances.

/ frequently linger outside;
IT'S me home of a maid who is pretty,
a maid l would like for my bride;
| fear that l never shall win her
My passion is hopeless and mute;
I'm sure her parents would skin her
If they thought that she smiled on my
suit.
Her eyes are the purest and brightest
That ever encouraged a hope;
Her skin is the softest and Whitest
That ever shed lustre on soap;
Her hair is the richest and coolest
p That ever a hair dresser dressed;
And her parents are surely the coolest
a heroine ever possessed.
Her voice, it's mezzo-soprano,
Would make even Patti afraid;
And the way that she plays the piano
Puts Rubinstein quite in the shade.
More perfect she is than perfection;
Resign her l can't and l WON'T
And she looks upon me with affection;
But her parents-oh bother them!-don't.
They intend her to marry title:
They want n to address her Your
They've made up their minds this is

Which scratches me out of the race
Nor do 1, in theory, blame them;
She's worthy a duke l aver.
It's true I'd be puzzled to name them
A duke who is worthy of her.

For presuming 10 think she could love

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-10-27

The evidences of this body of water are
known as the Eutan springs that are
located between the Sante river and the
leadwaters of the Cooper The country
Is underlaid by blue limestone and near
the surface undoubtedly lies a large body
of water that has no surface overflow
and simply fills certain open spaces that
are called springs. One of the best known
is on the Wooboo plantation not many
miles from Charleston. Here there is an
opening to the subterranean lake, about
$50 feet wide and in the center about II
feet deep.
To the casual visitor this body of water
would not attract much attention, but the
close observer would find that the water
simply rose to the surface and did not
run over-there wa9,no overflow, that the
temperature was the same summer and
winter, and that the entire length Of the
pool there was a crack in the limestone
through which bottom could not be
reached. This pool is alive with fish that
are common in the adjacent rivers, and
they come up through the crack or Gre
vice in the stone AS the water does not
boil up, as in the average spring, it is
evidently the opening merely of a big
body of underground water, and it is an
easy matter to trace it from pool to pool
for long distance.
