Veteh Pasture In Spring.

In western Oregon and Washington,
where fall sown vetch natures for
hay in June and rains are not infre-
quent at this season of the year, it is
quite common practice to pasture it
in the early spring March and April
to keep the growth from becoming SO
heavy that it will fall before it is cut
and to retard Its development so that
haymaking will occur after the rains
are over. If the crop is heavy and
falls during bad weather, it is best to
make ensilage Of it Immediately.

The Staff OF Life.

Man has not always eaten the fine
wheaton bread which is so frequently
served to-day, and yet it would be
necessary to go far back into preh1s-
toric times to findStheperiod in which
some kind Of bread was not baked.
Sarah, who cooked for Abraham, the
father of nations" made bread just
as her ancestors had made it for hum
dreds of years before her time. She
prepared a paste of -four and water
and, having shaped 1t into round fiat
pieces, buried It in the ashes Of the
hearth. It was many years before
the Jewish people knew any other
kind Of bread, although there were
times when these fat cakes were
baked upon the gridIron until they
were dry and brittle enough to- he
broken by the hand.
According to tradition, it was Pan
the god with the face and legs of a
goat-who first taught mortals how
to make bread. According to the
same authority, it was the goddess
Ceres who taught the Greeks to Guilt
vate corn, and Megalarte and Mega
lomaze who instructed them In the
art Of kneading flour and baking
1oaves in ovens. So successful were
their pupils, however, that at one
time no less than seventy-two kinds
of bread were evolved out of various
combinations of milk, oil, honey.
cheese and wine with the -four OF
that period.
For a very long time the Romans
we're eaters of Cruel, the art Of
parching corn and of converting il
into -four having been taught to them
by King Numa Otis B. c., while
the baking of the compound was only
introduced with the worship of For

B. C.. Strangely enough, however, il
the midst of the bewi1dering progress

Tea drinking frequently affects
people as badly as coffee. A lady in

it threatened to ruin her health and
that she went over to tea drinking,

BETWEEN SEASONS.
The Need Which Spring Brings to
All, and How 1t is Met.


That, after the long and wearing struggle
with Winter, there is need of a revitalizing
agency of some sort, the almost universal
demand for what is popularity known as a
spring medicine, " would seem to indicate.
People feel, without doubt, that there has
been a drain on their vital forces, and that
they are not up to the standard of health
and strength required by the demands of
daily life. They want a spur, a tonic, an
lnvlgorant, and they look forward to the
coming heat of Summer with apprehension,
drcading the further call that is to be made
on Their already impaired forces. In fact,
they want a Spring medicine.
And the want is natural, and, fortunate
ly, as naturally supplied. Nature has pro-
them. In Yager's ~Sarsaparilla with Celery,
is found a combination, which, while of the
greatest general value, is especially adapted
to the needs of the weakened physical con-
dition which follow Winter and precedes
Summer. By purifying and enriching the
blood, Strengthening the nerves, giving
restful sleep, creating appetite, and aiding
digestion, Yagers Sarsaparilla with Celery
builds up the entire system and restores it
to its maximum of health and vigor. So
effectual is it, so unfivaled in its sphere,
that-in thousands of families its use has be-
come as regular as the recurrence of the
seasons. It is "par excellence" the Spring
medicine. All druggists sell it, 50 cts. .

PRODUCTION OF SOFT cHE1sEs.

DR.. Charles Thorn of the Connect
cut Agricultural College, speaking on
"The Soft Cheese Industry as Adapt
ed to Connecticut, gave figures to
show that the manufacture of hard
cheese cannot be carried on to ad-
vantage in this state. Swiss cheese
might be made at a small profit, as
can the Isigny, though tho market
for this is limited The Camembert
cheeses, he thought, could be pro-
duced, at a profit, as, at the present
prices, the product Of 100 pounds OF
milk fifty ~quartsl is about fifteen
pounds, which should sell at from So
to $3.50. The college is experiment.
ing with this variety of cheese and
is producing an article as good as the
imported and which, he thinks, can
be made at a profit. The cream and
the Neufchatel cheeses, he thought,
could also be produced proftably and
the production Of these and other soft
cheeses might be worth the attention

WAS MYSTERIOUS KILLING
Sensational Killing Wherein a
Motive Does Not Appear
FAMILY TROUBLE is ALLEGED.
Killing Grows Out Of Domestic Diff
Guilty About Which There is Con-
siderable Mystery-The Slayer an
the Slain Brother-in-LIaw.

China Grove, Special. = Edward
Ashby shot and killed Dan Overcast
near Kannapolis, just over the Ca
barrus line and made good his es-
cape. A possee with bloodhounds
are in pursuit of the slayer, but at
a late hour at noght no word has
come from the pursurers.
Overcast and Ashby were broth
ers-in-law and the tradegy grew out
of a domestic difficulty about which
there is considerable mystery. Per-
sons who have arrived here from lie
neighborhood where the crime was
committed tell the story of the crime
and these details are given for what
they are worth.
Ashby went to the house of Reese
Pethel Sunday and accused Pethel's
wife of improper conduct with Over
cash, declaring that if Pethel would
go with him to the woods he would
produce proof of his charges. Peth-
ell accompanied Ashby to the woods
but, it is said, Ashby was unable to
show the husband proof of the
wife's misconduct. Pethel declared
then that the best way to settle the
matter was to interview 0~vercash,
and PetheI and his wife went to Ash
by's home after him. Ashby ac-
companied the Pethels willingly, but
instead of stopping at Pethel's home
where it had been agreed the OIL
ference was to be held, the Petheis
took him beyond into a thicket,
where Ashby was secreted. Ashb9
stepped ont from his hiding place as
Overcarsh approached and shot him
dead, Immediately taking flight.
There Is considerable mystery be-
hind the crime and it win require
much investigation to bring to light
the truth. Ashby, it is said, had
threatened Sunday morning some
hours prior to the tragedy to kill
Overcast on sight. Suspicion rests
upon Pethel and his wife for com
plicity in a plot to kill Overcast and
It Is presumed that they will be ar
rested on that charge.
Sheriff Crowder of Rowan county
was Informed of the crime Sunday
afternoon and with a posse aud
JbIoodhounds undertook the search
for Ashby but thus far without sue
cess.
Ashby has the reputation of be-
ong a desperate character. Ab'ut
four years ago he killed his father
Jim Ashby a noted whiskey trans
porter, because the father had bru-
tally whipped his daughter, Edward
Ashbys sister. The elder Ashby
was known to have possessed a
violent temper on this ground chiefly
acquitted the son. 1t is said that
the gun which Ashby used Sunday
morning IS the same weapon with
which he killed his father.

Autos Damage Roads.

cit is hard to say what will be the
ultimate damage to the roads," said
a, member of the Massachusetts COM
mission to a representative of the
Boston Globe, "hut it has recently
been estimated by the board that
$4,000 damage has been done al
ready by autos.
This is small in proportion to the
cost of the roads, but unless some
new method of applying surface is
adopted, the damage is likely to be
continuous; that is, repeated as fast
as it is made good:
There is something about the
broad rubber tires of motor vehicles,
on wheels of small diameter, pecu-
liarly damaging to maeadam roads.
A vacuum is created by the tire
which sucks the surface, or binder
from the road, and it is blown away
leaving the stones exposed.
1.-THE commission is experiment
ing with tar surfacing, which has
been used in France successfully
Experiments have also been made by
the park commissioners with an OIL
having an asphalt base. Something
new must be adopted, and l nave
TO doubt Massachusetts, will not ps
behind in it's adoption"
