Mr.. Gregory was then recalled, and in
answer TO questions propounded by MT.
Southall, he said that II was ninety-seven
yards from the south gate or the Pollard
place TO the place where the body was
found. The witness was then asked IL

piled In the affirmative.

for the defendant The objection made
was argued briefly. Counsel for the Com
monwealth claimed that they had laid the
foundation for this testimony, and the
Court admitted 1t. and IT was regarded
as a big victory for the prosecution.
GRAPHIC STORY OF THE KILLING.
Mr.. Gregory then proceeded to narrate
the evidence given by Solomon Marable
while on trial in Lunenburg: / will only
attempt to give Mara oles testimony In
the main. He said that Mary Barnes
had first mentioned the subject TO him
a week before. She had told him that
she knew where there was some money.
and that she had two women, and wanted
him. She told him 10 meet her at the
spring on Thursday. and. II they were
not ready, TO come Friday. Solomon
said he went on Thursday. and that they
we're not ready, and did not come; so
he went to the spring again on Friday,
and Mary Barnes came there some time
about IL o'clock and told him that she
would be ready for him presently. He
then came on up to the back OF the
yard, and saw Mary Alternately. Solo
mon went on to tell how he went into
the backyard. He saw Mrs. Pollard
come out Of the house with a basket Of
eggs. He caught her by the hands with
one of his hands. and started to catch her
by the throat with his other hand, and
later on did so. Pokey Barnes came up
from another direction, and struck Mrs
Pollard three times with stick, while
Mary Alternately. coming up also. struck
her with an axe. Mary Alternately anu
Pokey Barnes went into the house then,
but soon came out, having some articles

that II was rigidly enforced.
Said he: "If II becomes necessary TO do

Green Manuring VS.. Stable Manure.

Not long ago there appeared in many
agricultural papers, articles condemning
green manuring as a wasteful procedure
as against feeding the crop TO farm
animals, and using the manure thus
produced. The reasons for this advice
were, first, the higher manurial value of
the stable manure; and second, the
profit derived from the animals fed.
This, of. course, presupposes that
stock raising is profitable under all cir
cumstances. But when specialties like
fruit or grape growing sre concerned,
it is very often doubtful that a com ina-
ton with the feeding of any but the
animals actually required for farm
work would be at all advisable.
Again, it is presupposed that the
manurial value of the green feed is fully
maintained in the corresponding
manure. This, however, is very far
from being actually the case in prac tice;
very few farmers take such care of their
manure-pile as to even approximate to
such a conservation. Often fully so per
cent is lost.
Late experiments reported by the
1" Deutsche NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Presse." the leading agricultural paper
of Germany, show, in addition, some
surprising results, which, while incon-
testable, are not even yet fully under
stood. 1t appears that culture-tests
made for five and nine years, respect
lively, by two noted observers (Jul.
Kuhn and Paul Wsgner), have shown
that the average proportion of nitrogen

The Office of Manure.

To understand the part which ma
nures play in rendering soil productive,
recourse must be had to the analysis Of
the plants themselves. The composition
of these will necessarily indicate the
materials which must be supplied in or
der to promote their healthy growth.
Where soils are submitted to the &C
tion of fire, there is an organic part
which burns off mpletely, and resi-
due is left incapable of com bustion, con-
sisting of mineral substances. The 4me
result follows the action of heat on
planJs. Healthy plants invariably con-
tain q certain number Of these mineral
ingredients and, IN fact, always the
same substances; the nature and quality
or the varying proportions Of which are
ascert&ined by finding the composition
of the ashes of the plants.
The organic portions dissipated by
the heat consist mainly of the elements,
carbon, nitrogen and oxygen, which
produce by their union the various prox-
innate principles, of which plants are
composed. The development of plant,
therefore, requires the presence of bodies
capable of furnishing carbon, nitrogen,
water and it's elements, and the mineral
matters, which are likewise essential to
vegeta bles.
Lichens, which at one time were sup
posed to be destitute of roots, have been
shown to be possessed of these organs
with seemingly greater power than
those of trees and herbs, for they are
able to disintegrate and take up the
necessary portions of the rock to which
they are attached and fix them as part
of their constitution. Their organic
constituents under these circumstances
can only come from one source, viz:

Canning Factories for the South.

The Atlanta Journal, in commenting
on the canning industry in the south
gives the following statistics: The total
output in canned goods in this country
for 1898 was 4,309,443 cases. and only
five southern states contributed to it.
These were North Corolina, South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi.
The output in these five states was only
$500 cases. a pitifully small part of the
total for the country. The home con-
sumption of canned goods, in 1893 was
$500, 900 cases, and thevalue of the can
ned goods exported was S11, O49, 245.
While the industry has grown largely
since 1895, the south has not probably
made proportionate increase in the
number and extent of its canneries.
