The parquet floors at Blenheim

But there were days when carpets
covered the floors and when there
was duchess who particularly dis
liked to see them dirtied. Sir
Joshua Reynolds knew that to his
cost when he painted his great

Marlborough, his duchess and their
children. He loved his snuff, even
as the duchess her carpets. When
lie took pinch, the duchess order
I'd a servant to sweep up the refuse.
That Sir Joshus would not allow.
The dust raised, he said, would
make all the family involuntary
snuff takers, and his threat was that
he would paint them for posterity

at the same time the winter rains are

cess making the plOw one OF the most

QUICK WORK.
Any farmer with a good pair Of
mules can turn and subsoil field
within one-third the time he can do
it after the usual method and get it
done 80 per cent. better. In the fol-
lowing spring all that is necessary
before planting is to put in the guano
in every Other one of the old fur
rows, bed on it lightly and plant.
The middles will be found soft and
the dirt can beteasiw worked to the
rowing plants. Several OF the best
md most practical farmers who have
,een using the Mallory plow for a
wear or two told me they found great
satisfaction in its work and that
/ rough its use had greatly increase d

has never been an implement in
vented which is It's superior as cot

broadcast turner, l found it superior
to all reversible turn plows which |
have seen or used. In examining
he different features Of the plow |
'ound that it could be used not only
or tearing up the subsoil from y to
) inches deep. but that it can be
ised with scrapes in plowing the

Tilling the Soil.
Atlanta Journal.

Atlanta Journal.
Agricultural writer's for many
years have impressed upon the tiIlers
of the soil the great need of deep
blowing and thorough tillage in the
preparation of land for all kinds Of
crops. The up-to-date progressive
farmers of the South have spent time
and money in an earnest endeavor to
break and pulverize their soils and
an earnest effort to secure the highest
degree of growth and fruitage for
their different crops. There have
been many kinds of implements used
in the effort to better prepare our
lands, many Of which would do good
work in one kind of soil, while to-
tally untitled to give good results in
another, From the old-fashioned
two-horse tQrn-plow up to the most
highly and Slatest improved disc
plows, we have spent thousands OF
dollars trying to make our soils yield
up the natural plant foods they con
tain and render them available to
growing plants. The right kind OF
experience, that which teaches Us
the best policy to pursue, can only
be learned from practical experience
1t was at first thought that the
proper time to turn under vegetation
was during the month Of July or Au'
gust, while it was yet green and IN
the ripest stage Of rank growth
Experiments early demonstrated the
fact that rank vegetation turned un-
der while full of sap, during the no,
days of summer, caused too rapid fer
meutation and placed too much acid
itv in the soil. In other words, the
soil would become sour and much OF
its fertility and usefulness lost. The
next step was to await the coming
Of frost and turn the land after al
vegetation had passed from life into
death, The results were found to be
not only superior to the old plan, but
decided Improvements along the line
Of building up depleted soils. The
mere turning of land with its coat o.
vegetation WAS found to be not al
that was pssdsd to secure the results
sought. Investigators found that nc
ordinary turn plow could be forcec
into the ground deep enough to break
the subsoil underlying the top soil
and that unless the subsoil was brok
en- to depth of from ten to twelve
inches the winter rains could not bt
hold.

THE MALLORY PLOW,

Unless the winter rains could be
held lands broken flush would wash
during the rainy season, the top sur
face more than likely to run together
and become cemented, with the pos
sibility of considerable damage to
follow fall and winter turning If done
after the usual fashion. Any pillow
which would properly break and sub
soil our lands without any OF the
above attendant evils was the imple-
ment which our people have been
seeking for many years.
A short time ago while in Madison,
Ca. had the pleasure Of witnessing
a practical test applied in the field
with Mallory combination turn and
subsoiling plow. l drove out in the
country two miles from Madison to
see the work of the plow, not from
curiosity, but to find out if the plow
would do what was claimed for it by
the owners and the farmers who were
praising it's many virtues. The field
in which the test was made was in
wheat stubble, covered with rank
growth of crabgrass. The Mallory
plow, which is made of solid steel
throughout, except the handles, by
Messrs. S. A. Turnell & Co., of Mad
ison, Ga, is a double-turner, that is
the wings Of the plow hoe set out on
either side Of the plow foot, present
ing somewhat the appearance OF
hog-faced shovel.
The point Of the plow hoe is from
10 to y inches wide according to the
size of the plow used. With pair
of ordinary mules, the first furrow
run opened out s inches deep and 10
inches wide at the bottom. The
wings of the pillow threw the dirt out
for a distance Of l3 inches on each
side OF the center Of the furrow. The
next furrow run parallel with the first
one and at & distance Of two feet,
ridged up and completely covered all
the vegetation growing between the
two burrows. By running tie fur
rows two feet apart the vegetation in
the field was completely covered and
wide open burrows as above described
left open to catch and hold all the
winter rains, if run on level or by
terraces. The method Of subsoiling
followed, the opening Of the burrows.
A long, narrow diamond pointed
scooter was placed or the plow and
run in the open furrow, breaking
and loosening up the subsoil from .
to s inches deeper. In this way
a field can be quickly piowed and
subsoiled, with a trench y inches
wide and from 10 to II inches deep,
left to catch and hold all the water
that falls during the winter, while
the constant Seeping through OF the
water across thc covered middles, to-
gether with the winter freezes, will
render the entire field scft and plia-
Bile by spring. Another feature OF
breaking land under this process, az
worked out by Mr.. Mallory the i'll
ventor, is that if the subsOil is wet
with the first furrow opened with the
turn plow can stand day or two be,
fore the subsoiler is used. On the
other hand ii the subsoil is hard, the
fist furrow can stand until after "
rain, when the subsoil will be soften
ed up and easily broken. it has been
long known that rain water contains
many valuable fertil:zing properties,
