An Early CRATER

ONCE later in the war | was with Sherman at

attacks of veXation similar that of Louis

time got hold of the details of the affair,
One bright sunshiny morning in the fall after the
capture of Atlanta, with aid and a couple Of
orderles, rode up to the city from East Point.
Sherman was occupying fine large house He was
at the door when arrived. l dsmounted near the
front steps and took his outStretChed hand He
was evidently in his happiest mood. "Ah, Howard,
said he I'm glad to see you! Come in, come in,
You're Just in time for our lunch" He and took
in his office while waiting for the lunch
that he had ordered promptly, and were talking to-
gether Familiarity, when soldier, approaching Sher

outside who says he is from Nashville and wants to

the door, and was tervent in his congrat ulatlons to

volubly uttered, while we were all standing. the
stranger took from the side pocket of his thin

good cigars and so, thinking your supply of them in
your long campaign might be cut off, have brought
you box of good ones" Sherman was delighted
for though never excessive smoker he did enjoy
a good cigar. He thanked the giver again and
again for his thoughtful kindness. For day or two
the pleasant stranger visited our camps and made
many appropriate little presents, particularly to
Sherman's Generals He gave a plated knife.

Sherman, very grateful; but wondered little what

present, when the same polished stranger.

had us all grouped about him, and talking with
his deep musical voice and in his haPpiest vein He

Interrupted by the stranger, he looked round and
rose to meet the newcomer, when the man handed
him trade permit which when signed would enable
him to bring goods of all kinds from Nashville the

Sherman took one look at the paper. His man

WHEAT Ia Audrain is very good
aud fine wheat could with little
fertilizer be grown every year in all
parts Of Missouri. Along this line the
ShelbIna, Mo-. Democrat says: There
is good wheat crop In this section OF
the country this year, and the price
promises TO be good. Wheat as rule
does better on land that was formerly
IN timber than on prairie soil; but IL
is first rate even ON the prairie this
year, as has been the case In years
past. We believe wheat can be made
a pretty sure crop on any OF our soil
by proper preparation. The plant
thrives best on well drained and fairly
fertile land. Sown after o crop Of
clover has been turned under, the
ground being thoroughly prepared,
the crop is pretty certain. Even
turning under crop of weeds helps.
Years ago people Summer fallowed"
that is raised no crop but turned the
weeds under several times to prepare
the land for wheat. Turning under
crop Of clover is much better. The
ground should be plowed and thor
oughly pulverized and packed a month
or more II possible before sowing.
Then harrow and drill In deep. Wheat
often does well when put in between
the rows of corn, or when corn is early
and cut up drilled In the corn stalk
land. Wheat will not as a rule pay
unless special pains are taken In pre-
pairing the land. We are anxious to
see this section raise wheat every year.
