Top Dressing Versus Flowing Under

Top dressing versus the blowing I'M
der of manure: Two areas of ground
which previously had received similar
care and treatment were selected for
this trial. A land four rods wide and
"a rods long was divided in the middle.
On the one half was spread liberal
dressing Of well rotted barnyard ma
nure which had lain in the compost
heap during the summer The ground
was then plowed, and on the other half
a similar application of manure from
the same heap was made as top
dressing. From the plot on which the
manure was plowed under we harvest
ed 1892 bushels of wheat per acre.
while from the top dressed plot the
yield was 1892 bushels. being but ~
pounds less per acre. an amount within
the probable limits of error.

tonished to find that a gang OF four
burglars had blown the safe to atoms
at the Phoenixville station at 1880 a.

MY balloon will be made of French
silk, which is much lighter than Chi
nese pongee silk, and has quite as
much resistance. The car will be made
of PUSHES, and will measure two metres
eighty en-, by three metres twenty,
and will be attached to the balloon in
the same way as is used by the mill
tary balloonists at Chalais. The crew
of the balloon for the Mediterranean
voyage will be frr in number-two
naval officers and aeronauts. The vow
age will be made in June or July, when
the wind and sea are their calmest.
There will be preliminary trials. and
provisions for three weeks will be PRO
