"Riding backwards" or cross mo-
ton" of all the Jockeys tricks is the
most effective, and at the same time
the most difficult of detection. 1t is
simple trick, consisting simply of
throwing the motion of the body out of
time with that of the horse, and by
the sway of his body helping to lift
him at every bound. Another trick
practiced by jockeys is called the leg
lock-" and when cautiously applied has
more to do with the result of the race
than the uninitiated may think. In
effect, it is one jockey holding another
back, and this done by the leg lock-"
Two horses are leading the field, one
perhaps only neck ahead of the 9th
err. As they come into the straight
they are running close together The
leading jockey sees his chance and
draws closer to his opponent until the
horses almost touch. He let's the sec
ond gain on him until the. leg of his
opponent touches his leg from behind.
This is just what the little rascal
wants. Let his opponent win if he
can. Every lunge of the second horse
pushes the first one ahead, firing itself
and easing the flight of the other,
until the final squirt, when the horse
thus aided easily comes in the winner.

FERTILIZING FOR COTTON.
Suggestions to Farmers who are
Preparing Their Land For the
Next Cotton Crop,

BY the time this appears in print
a good many farmers will be making
their arrangements to buy fertilizers
for another seasons cotton crop.
/ wonder how many of my readers
really know what they want in a
fertilizer for this crop and how many
simply leave the question for the
dealer TO decide? Naturally the
farmer who reads knows a great deal
more about this matter than the one
who does not. But still the amount
Of ignorance displayed in regard to
fertilizers by farmers who should
know better is astonishing
Eyes" said Il fertilizer dealer to
me last spring, most Of my custom
ers leave me to decide what fertiliz-
er they need for any given crop. They
ask me for a good fertilizer for cot
ton, or melons, or potatoes, and l do
the best ] can for them"
But how can a fertilizer dealer
hhDN lIt N'uhlllOHc WHICH SuITOunu
his customer, or tell what his soil
requires in a fertilizer? 1t is a ques-
ton watch every farmer must decide
for himself, 1t is a very important
question and its proper decision may
mean the saving of hundreds of dol
lars to the individual in question.
A short tir1e ago / had conyersa-
tion on this subject with a Mr.. w. d.
Hammack, who is member of the
Georgia legislature and alarge cotton
planter. Mr.. Hammack said he had
tried a great many different kinds of
fertilizers on cotton, but had finally
settled down to the following as best
for his land. | give it just as he told
II to me-. as it makes the formula
very simple and easily understood. A
2oO'pound sack of high-grade acid
phosphate, 100-pound sack of cot
tonseed meal, and a 10O-pound sack
of kainit cmptied together and thor
oughly mixed making 400 pounds of
fertilizer This gives a well-balanced
fertilizer for cotton on most soils,

DETECTING SPURIOUS COIN.
The sense of Touch Is Mostly Relied
Upon by street Car Conductors
and Cashiers.

Among secret service men, surface
and elevated roads are looked upon
as trunl, line systems for the clrcu-
lation of the queer not such coun-
terfeit coin as represents the work
of the clumsy beginner, but rather
the finished product of the expert
cowterfeiter, Of which, it may be re
marked, there is a plenty in exist
encc, says the New York Post.
AS a federal officer" said William
p. IIazen, formerly chief of the sery-
ice, now principal of private agen-
cy II have gone to railroad officials
and protested against rules in their
corporations which were so enforced
as to turn back into circulation bad
money that should have been handed
over to the government authorities.
| met with uniform courtesy and
oftentimes sympathy in my task, but
| never received any assistance by
which | was able to stop the prac-
tice.
THE street car men to whom |
went said that their employees had
been instructed not to accept either
Canadian or counterfeit coin, They
had been warned that the company
would not receive it if they did, And,
true to the principles of the com
pany, the receivers of the conduct
ors' returns refused, and do now re
fuse, every bad-looking coin. 1t is
only natural that the conductor who
finds himself in this predicament
should pass off the worthless coins
on unsuspecting passengers. A coun-
terfeit coin does not trouble his CON
science any more than a Canadian
ten-cent piece, or so many copper
pennies, which are also on the re-
cejyer's blacklist"
There are, however, many particular
ly good limitations of money-half dol
lars, quarters and dimes, in whose
composition there is as much silver as
in the genuine currency. These pieces
have thering of true money, they feel
right, and the workmanship will usu-
ally bear ordinary inspection, They
are good enough until they come I'M
der the scrutiny Of the experts, Some
times the oyer-abundance of silver first
attracts attention; then the stars
above the eagles, on the jO-cent pieces
and quarters, are badly done, and gem
orally so ont of pace as to catch the
trained eye Immediately.
The milling, which secret service men
say is oftentimes confused with the
reeding, is the fine "cogwheel" line
that encircles the face of a coin be-
tween the letters and the raised edge.
This, it is said, is extremely difficult
to counterfeit, and the reeding, which
is the short stripping on the coins
edge, is equally so, Errors in work
manship betray spurious money after
| all other tests have failed.
The amount Of spurious coin made Of
base metal is said to be intinitesimally
small Time has come when even a lad
at school can tell these pieces. They
have a dull, lead-colored appearance,
are heavy and without the ring !
conductor can detect one Of these
coins the moment it touches his fin
gers, even though the car be so crowd
ed that he cannot get his eyes close
enough to the piece to examine it. Eli
ther the lead, the babbitt metal, or the
antimony in its composition gives the
coin a slippery, greasy surface that is
instantly noticeable.
