BELLEFONTAINE. OHIC
VARIETIES OF WHEAT AND
HOME-MIXED FERTILIZERS.
A Seventeen Comparison of Wheats.

Thirty-three varieties of Wheat have |
been grown side by side at the Ohio
Experiment Station for seven years.
One of these varieties, Penquite's Vel
vet Chaff, has been grown on thirty
different plots, scattered regularly
throughout the test, and the yield of
the other sorts is compared with that of
the nearest plots of Velvet Chaff. The
average yield of the thirty plots of Vel
vet Chaff for the seven years has been
twenty bushels per acre, ranging from
less than ten bushels in 1896 to nearly
twenty-nine bushels in 1898.
Poole and Mealy have exceeded this
7-year average yield by four bushels
and more; Early Ripe and Red Russian
have surpassed it by between three and
four bushels; Currell's Prolific, Gypsy,
Mediterranean and Niger by between
two and three bushels; Bearded Mon
arch, Egyptian, New Monarch and val
ley by between one and two bushels,
and Dietz, Democrat, Fulcater, Fultz
Jones' Square Head and Jones' Win
ter Fife have fallen below the yield of
the Velvet Chaff by between two and
three bushels per acre; Early Red
Clawson, Royal Australian, Sibley's
| New Golden, Silver Chaff and Yellow
| Gypsy by between one and two bushels,
and Early White Leader, Hickman,
Hindostan, Lehigh, Martins Amber,
Missouri Blue Stem and Rudy by less
than one bushel.
The Velvet Chaff reached its lowest
yield in 1895 and 1896, and the average
of it's 80 plots being 11.42 bushels for
1895 and 9.S4 bushels for 1896. In both
these seasons Bearded Monarch, Dietz,
Democrat, Fulcaster and Fultz fell be-
low Velvet Chaff in yield; Poole and
Red Russian gave practically the same
yield as Velvet Chaff in 1895, with a
small increase in 1896; Gypsy, Mealy,
Mediterranean and New Monarch kept
above the yield of Velvet Chaff during
both these seasons, by a margin of from
| three pecks to three bushels per acre,
while all the other sorts fell below it
during one season or the other.
| High water mark in this experiment
was reached in the crop of 1898, 1897
and 1898, Velvet Chaff yielding 26. r.
27.32 and 1855 bushels per acre in the
tests of those seasons. In all these sea-
sons the yield of the Velvet Chaff was
exceeded by Currell's Prolific, EARLY
Ripe, Gypsy, Hindostan, Lehigh, Medi-
terranean, Missouri Blue Stem, Niger,
Poole and Red Russian, and in the last
two by Fultz also.

ga peculiar thing happened in Nash

Memphisan who was once state mill
tiaman.
Gin order to make the drill realistic
it was given out that some of the men
should fall as if shot, but no certain
ones were specified. 1t was very hot
afternoon, and it struck me that it
wo uld be a good thing to fall in a shady
spot and rest while the other soldiers
drilled and perspired. The first shady
spot we reached 1 fell all right, but

An Indiana woman recently showed
that deftness in welding the rolling

flew into this woman's kitchen last
Thursday and in the battle royal which
followed, she knocked him out with

was big fellow, eight feet from wing

finally foored him--just as it has done
so many other bald bipeds.

The report Of Public Charities for
1928, prepared by the secretary of
the board. Captain C. P. benson, shows
we'll. There is improvement in all the
institutions. The extent and growth OF
the work of caring for the unfortunate
insane is seen in the fact stated that
Tess than twenty years ago the aver
age number OF the insane provided for
in North Carolina was about $50 crowd
ed into n building constructed for 224
patients. Now h three admirable hos
pitfalls for the insane accommodate 1887
patients, and the whole number under
treatment the past year exceeds this by
several hundred. 1t may be fairly esti-
mated that nearly OF quite 1000 persons
will receive the benefit of the latest
modern treatment of Insanity in the
coming year in our state. This means
that North Carolina is treating eight
times as many Of the insane for about
