SOIL MoIsrnnn

The long period of drought nearly
every year have caused many Of the
experiment stations to examine close.
~ into the matter Of soil moisture
me time has come, owing to forest
destruction, when the question of soil
moisture is the most important that
can be considered in relation to farm.
ing The plant derives its food sun.
PLY through the agency Of the water
which 1t drinks in or absorbs from the
SOIL, with the aid Of the membranous
surfaces Of the roots, with their root
hairs, which later greatly increase
the surface connection Of the plaut
with the water Of the soil. Large
quantities Of water thus taken in by
the plants are "breathed out" into the
air through the leaves and the amount
Is enormous, field crops consuming 200
to 500 pounds Of water for each mound
o. dry matter the plants add to their
own weight in growing. The roots
OK field crops are much longer, much
more numerous, spread farther and
penetrate into the soil to greater
depths than many persons realize.
Where the upper portion of the earth
IL often too dry for the plant to feeu
some crops send their deepest roots
downward from four to six feet or
more, though the greater number of
roots are In the upper 1S inches Of
soil. The richest portion Of the soil
and the part in which the plants pre-
fer to feed, If sufficient moisture is
present, is the lower half or two.
thirds Of the furrow slices. With
greater depth the plants feed with
more difficulty. While the deepest
roots procure some food their chief
function is to bring the water from
deep in the earth when the supply
near the surface is short. Clover
sends its roots deeper than corn or
wheat, and alfalfa goes deeper than
clover, but as the plant food is sought
near the surface the objects should be
to have the moisture there so as to aid
the plants to procure soluble food

1t is drawn from the COW until the
time It is churned, Whenever milk
reaches the temperature Of 100 It is
claimed to be in an active state of
decomposition, But, while milk is
easily affected by outside influences,
the adherents to strict rules Of clean
liness will greatly aid the dairyman
TO avoid the changes that often oc,
cur. Cooling the milk renders the
germs inactive and prevents decompo-
sition for q while, but It should not
be overlooked that milk absorbs odors
very rapidly when cool. Exposure to
odors, gases or volatile matter Of any
kind should. therefore, be avoided, and
every utensil used in the dairy should
be scalded with boiling water and

CONFESSED SLAYED OF
FIVE WOMEN PlTEOUSLY
BEGS FOR PROTECTION,
Continued From Page One.

We had no trouble and had no reason for
what did. 1t seemed to me that was in
a sort of daze when l woke up.
"On the morning of December q my wife
was still asleep. Without realizing what I
was dong or having any reason for 1t all,
grabbed her by the throat. my fingers
seemed to tighten as 1 became wide awake
and 1 choked her harder until finally 1 saw
that she was dead.
Then it came to me that I was in a ter
rible situation, and 1 did not know what
to do. l finally went to the Strauss shoe
store and paid 10 cents for a large wooden
shoe box. 1 carted 1t home and at once
picked up my wife's body and crammed 1t
into the box. / had to double the legs un-
der her to get it in.
Then 1 went to Shollenbergers livery
stable and got a wagon. l drove to the
house and tried to lift the box into It.
could not lift 1t myself so 1 went out and
called a man who was passing by to help
me.
TELLS HOW HE THREW
BODY INTO RIVER.
I'VE threw the box into the wagon. and
l started to drive south. 1 did not know
where to CO. so 1 went toward the river
on the Venice road. When came to a
clump of willows 1 decided to stop there
and throw the box into the river. I saw
mail-carrier approaching. SO drove away.
and when he was out Of sight drove back
and threw the box into the Sucker hole.
Then I went home and sold and gave away
our stuff. In few days 1 went to In
dianapolis when, on February g. married
Miss Gamble"
Speaking for the doctors who examined
Knapp. Doctor C. n. Huston said to-day:
KNAPP is beyond doubt a moral pervert,
a degenerate of the most pronounced type.
but there is no question as to his sanity
and legal responsibility.
His nervous system Is normal, the re-
fiexes respond naturally. the pupils Of his
eyes were normally susceptible to light
and there is no insanity nor epilepsy in his
family"
Late this afternoon the police got some
boats and started down the river. in a
search for the body. They failed to find the
body where Knapp said he threw It in the
river, when the river was very low. Since
then the river has risen. and 1t is more than
likely that the body foated distance from
the place where it was thrown in. The po-
lice will extend their search down the river
at least fifty miles. If necessary.
MAY ATTEMPT TO
PLEAD INSANITY.
That Knapp will attempt to plead in
sanity is probable. as he to-day told the
doctors and the police that he frequently
suffered pains in his head. He said he had
been kicked by a horse when he was 4
years old.
Knapp is in mortal terror Of mob violence
and begs piteously for protection from the
supposed danger. He asked many times to-
day about the number Of men guarding the
Jail and how they were armed. and whether
the people of Hamilton are much prejudiced
against him.
He appears to realize his condition only
at times, though he is never defiant or
restive under restraint.
When he learned to-day that a charge of
murder in tho first degree had been made
against him he remarked that it was moth
ing more than he expected. but he showed
no emotion.
