A SMART LAWYERS MISTAKE.
They Afterwards Got
Even.

A wellknown Maine attorney is especially
noted for his keenness in looking out for
the best end of every bargain--and for his
ability in getting hold Of that end. 1t has
made him unpopular in some circles-has
that trait of his!
On one deal not long ago he was in with a
couple OF friends-men OF wealth and stand.
ing, says the Lewiston (Me,) journal. Bust
ness was good the first year. There was a
generous division of profits. But the lawyer
wasn't satisfied with what was coming to
him, share and share alike with the Others
After receiving his proper whack as part:
ner, he exacted $500 more for council fees"
lie said that as lawyer he was worth that
OF looking at the matter, but the bill was re-
signedly allowed by the friends.
They were pretty good business men, un.
derstand. In little while they saw that the
venture wasn't pannng out very well. So
the shrewd men of affairs quietly unl;aded
without saying anything to their partner.
Then little later came the crash.
The lawyer hurried around TO hold conso.
lation meeting with the other two.
Gracious, isn't this too bad, moaned he.
81 lost so,andso. How much did you fellows
drop. You must have been hit pretty

GOOD CROP OF CORY.
U,iess Prime Seed Is Used Good Tilth
and Thorough Cultivation
Count for Little.

| am certain from several years ex-
perience that one of the essentials in
securing n good crop of corn is good
seed. | may say the other essentials
are a good soil well prepared in good
filth and thorough cultivation. But
with poor seed the best growth and
yield will not be secured even though
the soil be rich and good preparations
and cultivation be given.
1t is not only necessary that the soil
be of quality that will germinate
readily under reasonably fair condl-
tions, but the seed must contain suffi-
cient vitality to send up a strong vigor-
ousplant. Unless this is done IT will be
impossible to secure good, even stand,
One essential necessary is vigorous
growth. The corn plant must make
quick, vigorous growth from the start,
and, while a rich soil prepared in a
good filth is a great help in this, the
quality of the seed is the starting
point. %
Our seed is carefully selected in the
fall, carefully dried out and then stored
where it is certain to keep dry and at
the same time be safe from vermin. /
never shell until time for planting. II
the conditions are such as they should
be for planting corn, the soil sufficient
ly dry TO work steadily into good
filth and then is thoroughly prepared,
there is no doubt but that good, even
stand can be secured.
/ have found by experience that it is
of no advantage to plant corn when
the ground is wet, rough or cloddy.
Better wait until favorable conditions
can be secured, and then if good seed
is used not only will good stand be Sc
,ured, but the plants will make a good
start to grow, and then with good cul-
tivation can be kept growing. The
cost when a good crop is secured is
very materially reduced over that of
a poor yield. so that it pays to take
reasonable care to secure the best
yield,-N. J. Shepherd, in Farmers
Voice,
Savannah courier. (Savannah, Tenn.) 1885-1979, 1900-06-01
Orchard Grass for Meadows.

/ have tried orchard grass as mead
ow and found it an utter failure un.
der various circumstances and several
kinds of soil. This is also the expert
ence of other farmers. 1t is not diff.
cult to get fair "catch," but the
plant has habit of forming punches
with bare spots between. When cut
early il makes harsh hay, If cut when
ripe il is coarse and stiff like rye
straw, and resembles broom sedge
Stock will refuse to eat the hay un.
less starved to it. 1t requires four OF
five bushels OF seed to the acre at
a high price. From its early growth
/ think il would make good perma.
nent pasture, where it could be
stocked hard and not allowed TO get
over four inches high.-National
Stockman,
Savannah courier. (Savannah, Tenn.) 1885-1979, 1900-06-01

do not believe that there is any case
on record where poultry have been
poisoned by feeding in orchards which
have been sprayed with any of the ordi-
nary poison mixtures. Many years ago
it was demonstrated that when all of
the grass growing under a tree was
fed to a horse after it had been thor
oughly drenched with Paris-green
spray, the horse was not injured in the
least. ] should not hesitate moment
TO spray trees with the usual poison
Gus mixtures, for fear of injuring fowls.
A half dozen hens would have to eat
most Of the grass under sprayed tree,
at one meal to get enough to poison
them. - NJ. V. Slipgerland, in Rural
New Yorker.
Savannah courier. (Savannah, Tenn.) 1885-1979, 1900-06-01

II is dangerous thing to have the
general run of farmers buying white
arsenic for spraying and mixing and
boiling it themselves. One has only
to inspect the ordinary farmstead to
see how careless the owner is about
things which require careful handling
and weighing. The refuse is thrown
in the yard or into stream. Uten-
sils are left where they were used.
There are farmers who are otherwise,
and il they have much spraying tn
do, the white arsenic can be recon.
mended confidently; but l believe
that most people should buy their
poisons ready prepared, even If the
cost is somewhat greater.-Prof. L.
