Wheat Culture for the One-Horse Farmer.
EDITORS Progressive Farmer:

Editors Progressive Farmers
Every year we see articles in the agricultural
press the growing of wheat. You must break
your land with disc plow, work it down with
cutaway harrow and roller; put in your seed and
fertilizer with drill, etc., of which you admit to
be correct, but you have not the tools in ques-
ton you think the advice does not apply to your
case and you lose interest in the article. At the
same time, you know very well that you ought
to have two horses or mules instead of one, and
you ought to own all of these improved tools
which will enable you to do your work much
better and cheaper and the thing for you to do
is to so manage that you will soon be in posi-
tion to them.
There is true saying that thorough prepara-
ton is half the cultivation" and this is doubly
true when it comes to the wheat crop, for here
practically all the cultivation must be done before
the seed is sown. To the farmer who has never
tried intensive culture for wheat, and who has
been accustomed to plow in his seed with a scoot-
er pIow and nerhaps harrow the land afterwards,
it is hard to understand how any further tillage
could be necessary or beneficial. He has never
done anything more than this for any of his crops.
his principal object seemingly being to get his
seed into the ground with the least possible
amount of work, leaving the result to the season.
the fertilizer and Providence. To such a
would say, try it and see. Intensive farming is
more necessary to you, if anything, than it is to
the large farmer, for it offers you the only posi-
BILE means of getting ahead. 1t costs you more
to cultivate an acre of land than it does the larger
farmer; therefore, you must make the acre pro-
duce more But how? You must put more work
on it. and more fertilizer: that's all. The work
will help you some without the fertilizer and the
fertilizer would no doubt do some good without
the extra work. but combine the two and they will
double things right up.
Now to begin with. The best tool you have to
break your land with is that much berated scooter
plow First, because it will go deeper in the
ground than any other plow that one horse can
pull; second, because it will pulverize the land
better; and third, because it leaves the trash on
the surface where it ought to be when preparing
for wheat. Use good long four-inch scooter; be
sure to have several and keep good sharp one
on your stock. In breaking your land twice
in the same furrow, going as deep as your horse
pull it.
This takes work, / admit, and it may to
you that you get ahead very slowly, but if you are
afraid of work you will always be one-horse far
mer, and never reach the point where you can ride
while the tools do the work.

DANVILLE, VA, Jtlnc 29.--,The body or
Miss Pauline Edwards, sixteen years OF
age, was found In a creek near her home
in the county yesterday afternoon. There
was every indication that she had been
first assaulted and dSthell murdered.
Marks. presumably made BY human fin
gers. were found on her neck. In her
hand waa discovered a piece OF ell,5 cloth
which is believed to have been nlnce
OF the coat worn by her assailant. The
discovery Of the BODY was made by
farm hand. whose route to his home from.
his work lay through the field through
which the creek rall. The girl had not
been missed from her home when tho
family was made acquainted With the.
fact that her dead body vas lying IN the
creek.
A BRAVE FIGHT.
The young wonan's clothing was con-
sideraby torn. and every tndicat ton OF
foul play was apparent. The sod on the
bank of the stream was tran1ped as II
the girl had made desperate fight for

family that the girls assailant was well

A MYSTERY.
There has been no developments In the

ham are to the effect that the officials
there have not been notified of the tras-
edy No arrests have been made. and
there arc no clues that would lead to 2
possible arrest. unless the piece of cloth
tolutclled in tho fingers OF the dead girl
may be construed as such.
'rhe affair is shroudcd In mystery The
opinion OF tho girls relatives Is that the

some ono we'll known to her. and the
