Since then reports have been receiv-
ed saying he was at Cape Brenton. He
was not. The Boston police said he
was in Chicago. They erred. Toronto
was reported to be his hiding place,
but no trace of him could be found
there. Search was made in English
cities. 1t was futile. An artist who
claims to know him says he met him
in Texas few weeks ago. but did not
then know he was an absconder. Wher-

When a horse ls running away 1t is
then that the driver usually becomes
as scared as the horse and the run
away is not helped much. The driver
needs to keep his head Mt a time like
this, even though he should lose 1t at
other times. What the driver needs to
do is to pull vigorously on one line

Good Gains From Locust Planting.
The cultivation of the locust tree was
recommended by Instructors Jones and
Morse Of the Vermont station for Ger.
tain types of cheap barren land in
1897. One hundred Seeding trees were
set in rows four feet apart each way.
AT eleven years old they averaged six.
teen feet in height and five inches in
diameter. Encouraged by this small
planting five thousand more Seeding
trees We're planted In 1902 and 90 per
cent of the trees were alive ut the
time of the report and making rapid
growth. This planting was made at 4
total expense OF from $27 to sac pei
acre. Estimates are made Of the pos.
sible value of the crop which 1t is be-
lieved at the twentieth year will be
about 1886 per mere. Suggestions are
given for planting, and where there is
danger from attacks of insects mixed
plantations are recommended In which
white and pitch pines, birch, elm and
box elder are believed valuable.

When one Is growing n diversified
lot of crops there Is little time for
choosing seasons in which to do the,
necessary branches of the work. In
many localities there is a rooted OBJ
lection to fall blowing. and In some
cases these objections may be sound.
although in the majority of cases there
are three good arguments in favor OF
fall blowing to one against It. There
is more time to do the work, and - Q
result 1t is better done in the fall. Fall

son one can plant in fall-plowed
ground week or ten days earlier
than in ground plowed in the spring.
In some sections where 1t does not
seem advisable to harrow after fall
blowing, and especially when sod land
has been turned under, a disc harrow
can be run over the ground to advan-
tage, leaving the work of the smooth
ing harrow to be done in the spring.
