Fall Flowing.

The deeper we can plow in the fall of
the year. the better will the soil be for
the crops of the following seasons, says
]. G. Billings. Shallow blowing has it's
advantages. and its place. but we need
to get way down to the subsoil some
time Although most of the fertility
and plant food stay near the surface,
there is much good material that grad
ually sinks down below the soil that
is usually turned over with the pillow.
We must get at this TO obtain the best
results Soil and sub-soil may be turned
over. pulverized and broken up. That
is the object OF blowing. II will save
the roots of plants from using up their
vitality and strength in pushing their
way through the tough, inelastjc soil.
Take some lands and examine the
soil below the first few inches. II will
be found so hard and compact that
you cannot wonder that plants refuse
10 send their roots down through a.

Consequently we have surface roots

PAYMAsTER ROBBED.
Army omcer MysteriousIy Relieved
of $1,000 In Bills.

Pensacola, Fla, Nov. 10.-Paymaster
Stevens of the United States army ar
rived from Atlanta Saturday. Before
leaving Atlanta he placed in a hand
satchel 200 silver dollars and $4,000 in
paper money for the purpose of paying
the several hundred artillerymen at
Fort Barancas and McRea their sala-
ries for the past month. When he
reached the fort here he opened his
giip and found that all the paper mon
ey had been distracted and that only
the 5000 in silver remained. Amaze
ment and surprise followed the dis
covery and the news soon spread, be-
coming known here about midnight.
The alarm was soon spread and the
police were instructed to watch out
for the treasure.
Paymaster Stevens thinks some pro-
fessional pickpocket followed him and
relieved him during the trip. He can
not recall a single incident OF the trip
that would lend any bearing on the
robbery. but has an idea that the
money was taken before he left At
lanta.

Applying Fertilizer to Grain.


NJ. ON, Savannah, Ca. asks: Please
let me know how is the best way to
apply fertilizer to an oat crop, whether
at the time of planting, or as TOP
dressing. and is kainie good for an oat
crop.
AS a general rule OF practice il is
much better to apply the mineral part
of a fertilizer at the time the grain is
sowed in the fall and later on in the
early spring top dress with the nitro
genous element in whatever shape it
may be. whether a stable manure, cot
ton seed meal. or nitrate of soda. When
any manure rich in nitrogen (ammonia)
is applied in the fall there is certain
to be some loss of it. More or less,
according as the winter may be very
rainy or not.
Some little ammonia is never out Of
place in the fall on our average up
land soil, but rarely on bottom land.
1t is not every farmer that is willing
to take the trouble of making two
applications of fertilizer to any one
crop. but il is a practice that works
well as a rule. Grain roots run very
near the surface and any good fertilizer
applied as a top dressing alone in early
February, in January even in the lati-
tude of Savannah, has a very prompt
effect upon the crop, unless the season
continues very dry
Whole cotton seed can be plowed in
with the crop in the fall with little or
no less of the nitrogen. as they require
some time to rot, and thus yield up
their nitrogen. 1t is different with nj
trate of soda, or even cotton seed meal.
The latter does not require much time
to decompose. Nitrate of soda or dried
blood, both furnishing only nitrogen Cor
ammonia) should not be applied until
the crop just begins to grow off rapid
ly in the very early spring. The very
first rain begins to carry the am
MONA right to the roots.
