Washington, March 27.-Pension

recent order. The indications are

Qniries how to proceed are being re-

Many Of these old veterans write

There had been no expectation in the

Sometime afterwards Riley arrested
two other men who were taken to the

Riley opened the door to put the 9TH

Burton. United States senator from
Kansas, was found guilty to-day by
jury in the United States court here
on six counts which charged hin
with violating section 27S2 OF the re
vised statutes. BY that verdict, Il
sustainedin the highest courts, Ssna
tor Burton will lose his seat in the
Senate and viii forever be prohibited
from holding any Office OF public
trust.
The court did not fix the punish
ment, which Is left to it to determine.
Each count constitutes a separate
offense and Senator Burton could re
ceive a penitentiary sentence OF two
years or a $4,000 fine on each
count. 1t is not believed severe
penalty on each count will be exact

statute which was enacted by Con.
gress in 1864 1t prescribed q pen.

FALL FLOWING.
Opinion That 1t Tends to Rob the
Land of Much of It's
Fertility.

The fall-breaking question must be
settled by every farmer to suit his own
conditions, but we think it safe to lay
down the general principle that fall
breaking tends to rob the land of much
CT its fertility, says the Farmers
Voice. The Rothamstead and other
experiments have proved conclusively
that the bare soil loses a great deal of
nitrogen during the wet weather of
winter and early spring, while I'M
broken land, that is even sparseIy COW
cred with any green crop, loses an in
appreciate amount This loss is not
SO easily detected on our rich prairie
soils, nor is it so great where the land
is hard frozen for long periods, but
the question is, can we afford to lose
any of that element of fertility that
costs us 15 cents per pound to restore?
If we thought that we must break
our lands very deeply, we would be
very much inclined to do the work in
the fall, early enough to permit of a.
seeding of wheat or rye. We would do
this deep breaking preferably in the
fall, so as to allow the frosts to help
reestablish the connection between the
upper and the subsoil, as regards water
supply, and would sow the grain to pre-
serve the nitrogen in the soil and
would harrow or disk it under in
spring.
AS we come better to understand the
problems connected with agriculture,
we find that we have, in the past, done
many things that were entirely I'M
necessary to the making of a good
crop. Some of the best farmers. who
grow corn after corn on very rich
lands, have abandoned the practice of
breaking" as the term is understood
to mean turning the soil with a pillow,
and merely disk and harrow the sur
face in the spring few days before
planting. In private experiments we
have found this to be preferable to
breaking the land with share and
mold board pillow.
