Stunning Corn.

We are pleased to receive the fol-
lowing letter from Mr.. Williamson on
his stunting corn plan. and trust that
some pf our Farmers Union men will
pu, his plan through comparative
test. which will remove all doubts
either way about the plan. We have
SIX acres under comparative test af-
ter Mr. Williamson : stunning process.
and will weigh the products and meas
nrc the area by an expert from the
South Carolina experiment Station:
Mr.. J. {. Stribling. Pcndlcton. S. &.
Dear Sir: The exhaustive and con
iinu"us tests tha, y"u ask about in
your letter Of the 18th inst. to Doves

>lbIc IN agriculture to tell positively
which of the many attentions givcn TO
Il crop has contributed most Of the re-
suit.
This method have advised tried
On only Il few acres the first year, or
until one is familiar with its ways.
feel that the results that ! and
my nci2hb"rs who have adopted it
have obtained are sufficient to Justify
me in recommending that it be given
a trial: if it is not satisfactory it
bced not be followed again. \ few
acres will not only be sufficient but
best for giving this trial
"This "stunting' is no new thing
in corn growing; and if had express
ed il: "To so check and retard the
stalk growth, that there shall be
neither moisture or plant food wasted
in it's production. Then numbers Of
farmers would have recognized it as
just what they have been trying to
90 for years. Many Of them have
planted both early and low all Of their
lives to reduce the size Of the stalk,
and they will tell yon that when
young corn (not .jointed) is bitten by
frost, the stalk will not grow large
bnt that it usually makes better ears.

went as far as Burlington. There all

A telegram was sent TO Albany, but
the missing man could not be located
there. He had considerable money
with him and one theory is that he has
met with foul play. Another Is that
he went hunting and was accldently
