ROBBERY AT RAVEN ROCK.
Henry Beagle Gives up Several Hundred
Dollars to Masked burglars.

Henry Beagle Gives up Several Hundred
Dollars to Masked Burglars.
The residents in the vicinity of
Raven Rock east OF here, are greatly
worked up over the series of bold rob-
berries that have taken place in the
past few weeks and are more than
usually excited over the latest outrage
which occurred Monday evening.
Two masked men entered the house
of Mr.. Henry Beagle and demanded
at the point of revolvers what money
he had. Mr.. Beagle refused to give up
anything and the thieves ransacked
the premises in vicious manner, lit
tering the house from top to bottom
and breaking furniture. They were
rewarded in their search by securing
several hundred dollars and some jew
elry. Before leaving they asserted
that they would hang Mr. Beagle's
son, who was at work near by, and
started to make good their threat by
assaulting the younger Beagle. The
intended victim resisted vigorously,
however and his assailants fed, but
not before bruising him seriously.
Sheriff John S. McCallister was noti-
fled Tuesday of the outrage and will
make every endeavor to capture the
guilty parties, until which much de-
sired event there will be no sense OF
security in the neigh borhood. The
similarity of the manner of the rob
berry to that of DR.. Cox, and the re
semi blapce between the men is suf
ficient to warrant the presumption
that the same pair of thieves did botf
jobs.
Mr.. Beagle has been reported to bt
the recipient of liberal oil royaltie!
and rentals which accounts for TIL,
large sum of money he had in thu
house.

Failures with manures, either farm
yard or chemical, are often duo to .
mistaken idea - TO the proper time to
nee them. Some forms Of manures
oct quickly -. for example, nitrate Of
coda or thoroughly rotted compost.
| Az general rule some time must pass
before the forces in the soil can act
on the manures and change them into
forms At for plant food. II .
ammonia for plant food, but
not enough potash or phosphoric
! acid, the ammonia will be taken mp
rapidly; rank growth Of foliage may
result. but before maturity the supply
Of ammonia II exhausted and there u
none left to finish the work. II the
supply Of potash md phosphoric acid
In active shape il not present in suf-
6cient quantities. not only will the
plant fail 70 mature, but in the case Of
forage plants the hay or fodder will
b nearly useless - stock food. On
the other hand. IL the ammonia is
slow in coming into use. tho earlier
stages Of growth will be starved and
the moro abundant supply later on
will come too late.
Potash and phosphoric acid are
rarely % freely available ~ ammonia.
but they are quite - necessary for
useful plant growth. A plant can not
use nee these two mineral manures in
the form in which they are applied 1T
the time Of planting. II . dry time
should come Immediately after tho
planting these minerals in the crude
state are almost useless. The same is
true Of farmyard manure.
Potash and phosph0ric acid may be
applied several weeks before seeding
time. - they will lose little or nothing
BY drainage, etc. This is not true of
notrats Of soda or even . quickly
available tankage. Both these forms
Of ammonia may suffer loss from drain
age BY decomposition in the soil. 1t
ID good plan to apply the minerals
some time before planting. and the
ammonia st the time the soil il finally
put in shape for seeding. Even il com
plete nanures are used. they should
b applied some time before planting.
The chances of . loss arc much great
Or from not having the manure in
proper shape. than from any danger
Of losses from teaching. etc.
Lime undoubtedly quickens the
action Of all forms Of manures-fer-
tili1er chemicals are ~ much mauures
- the refuse products of the barn
yard, and should be used freely when
the work Of manuring has been de-
layed. But this IL merely makeshift.
The proper method for profitable
farming 10 to be sure the manures are
proper form by making early applica-
tions. Lime is always valuable to
promote availability and to carry on
deleteri0us substances lodged in the
soil. Il il purifier for plants rs it is
for man.
The time to apply manure is, at
least some weeks in advance Of the
seeding time in the case Of we'll rot
ted farmysrd mauures. some months
in tho case Of other manures and chem
icals.
For next years corn the kainit, il
not already applied, should be broad
casted without delay. The nitrate Of
soda for the hill may well be used 1t
the time Of planting.-Cor. Farmers' |
