To take a pleasure ride that almost

before we reached the Halfway House
there were two who exhibited such
positive symptoms Of distress that at
the first stop they had to leave and
take the next train down. The rest of
us continued. In a seat little in front
of us was a young girl who had been
growing gradually hysterical and whom
we had been watching curiously to

hands and fell backward, with blood

her escort to lay her fiat on her back,
as the pressure was less there than at
the head height in a sitting posture.
Then, at the next station, she was TAX
en- off and sent back to Manitou by the
wagon road. They didn't dare to take
her down by train, as the quick change
to the denser air might have proved
serious.

First Ball tame of Season.

The first ball game of the season
will occur between Elk River and
Princeton at the latter's grounds on
Saturday, April 18th. The Princeton
team has engaged the services of E.

played for several years with many OF
the local mines throughout the State.
Last year he was with the Renville

box and will strengthen the Princeton

is talk of organizing first nine in
Princeton for practice work with the

He is of the opinion that he will make

Some Facts About Lime.

Lime has great affinity for water.
A bushel Of unslaked lime increases by
one-half when thoroughly slaked. Lime
should therefore be purchased in the
caustic form for there is no use paying
freight on water, Air-slaked lime is
not active and of little use except on
soils deficient in this element. Caustic
or biting lime is very active, binding
the fine particles of clay soils together
and making them porous and breaking
down vegetable matter. Gaustie lime
tends to form hardpan in sandy soils
and so prevents teaching, and it sets
free potash and other elements in the
soil which are held in unavailable forms,
and therefore not useful as plant food.
Lime corrects acidity and renders posi-
BILE the growth of certain crops and
enables many useful forms of bacteria
to perform their functions.
Lime is not fertilizer as many sup
pose, but rather a corrective of certain
undesirable conditions in the soil and
plant stimulant. Applied in moderate
amounts, at the rate Of from 80 to 60
bushels per acre once in 3 to years, it
will prove useful on most of our farms:
Place the lime in heaps of A to 5 bushels
at convenient distances in the field.
Cover with earth and allow To thorough
ly slake and then distribute uniformly
over the land. If used indiscriminately
and in too large quantities, it will ex-
haust the soil and in the end be curse.
Lime to be applied profitably should not
cost more than to 10 cents per bushel;
The so-caiied agricultural lime offered
for sale at $1,000 to $12.O0per ton is the
fresh burned lime, ground and put up
in bags to Iprevent shaking. 1t is too
costly for farmer to use at that price.
The need of lime in the soil can be
determined by tsstipg It with a sheet
of blue litimus paper which can be OBJ
tanned from any drug store at a cost of
S cents. Put handful of the soil in
tin cup moisten with rainwater and in
sert the paper, If it quickly changes
to red color the soil is acid and will be
greatly benefited by an application of
lime.

SAY THE sLEUTHs TOOK THE BOOZE
Ugly Charges Against Detectives De-
tailed to Discover DanvlIle's "BIlnd-
Tiuers."

Danville, Va, March 18.-An inves-
tigation of the recent work in this city
of two special detectives employed for
the purpose of running down the opera
tors of the alleged "blind-tigers" in
Danville and tho connection of the police
force with the illegal liquor traffic was
held in the mayors court this morning.
The detectives were engaged by the
committee on police from the council,
and it is alleged that they did not per-
form their work faithfully and that the
police and the general public knew of
their presence in the city, thereby the
"blind-tiger" operators and the dere-
list police officers on guard.
Nearly all of the members of the force
acknowledge that they knew the men
were here, but no one seems TO know
exactly where they got the information.
1t is also charged that the detectives
were under the influence Of intoxicants
a portion Of the time they were engaged
in their work.
The secret service men have snb:
mitted an account of $262 for their
work, and there is a probability that
payment may be refused by the council.
IT is alleged that they doctored the
report, stating that they could discover
but few "blind-tigersn ana that after 2
thorough examination the police officers
had been faithful in discharge of their
duties.
