history of the church. The financial

past, the music most ably and &C,
ceptably rendered, the organizations
aggressive and effective, the Ladies
Aid with characteristic energy rem
dering invaluable service, and the
membership increased at each COM
muniion season.
The pastors resignation was re-.
gret1ully accepted, at his request,
subject to the advice of Council to
meet with the church Dec %, that
he may take the passionate of the
Rochester Congregational church.
Officers were chosen for the ensu-
ing year, a pastoral committee be-
ing selected to act for the church in
maintaining the regular services
aud securing a new pastor.
A social time succeeded the bust.
ness routine, ihgt refreshments be-
ing served.
Withal the sadness Of parting, a
most hopeful, determined attitude
toward the further work of the
church was manifest and speaks vol
umes for this pioneer church of our
town and county.

Most all the farmers around here

THE DEMOCRAT ]
September, IS Ioo3 Ten Pages.
Deep Flowing.
Ten Pages.

"A Saline county farmer, who
always has a crop that is ahead of
most of his neighbors, writes as fol-
lows concerning deep blowing:
aft farmers generally would adopt
a system of deep blowing, it would
bring larger and better crops. When
the farmers adopt system of deeper
blowing than the most of them are
now using, we shall not hear nearly so
much reported damage to crops from
dryo weather. 1 always pillow to a
depth of from 8 to 9 inches, and al
ways raise good crops. The average
depth is only. or inches. This
is not enough. Of course 1 do not
mean to say that all farmers do shall
low blowing, but the majority of them
do By stirring up the ground to a
greater depth the farmer creates a
reservoir for moisture. The broken
ground then becomes a sponge and
retains what water falls on it. The
farmer who plows deeply for winter
wheat places his ground in condition
to hold. all the moisture that falls dur
the winter and thus his wheat has
pleuty to draw from regardless of the
amount of precipitation of spring.
A rock will not hold water. On
account of my deep ploying 1 don't
have to worry about dry April or
May. Those who have plowed only
to depth of four inches may be hurt
by dry weather. AS an example of
what deep blowing will do, l know a
man who raised the average of his
ground from 20, to 48 bushels of
wheat. AS it is now 20 bushels is a
good average yield of wheat. I be-
lieve that deep blowing would solve
the dry-weather problem of the state
if adopted generally.
