SIX STREET CARS IN CRASH
Two People Killed and Forty Injured
at Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, May 25.-The street
car accident near Chestnut Hill park,
about twelve miles from the center of
the city, in which two persons were
killed and more than forty were in
jured, was one of the worst trolley
crashes that has occurred here for a
number of years. The dead are Mary
]. Wagner, aged sixty-four years, of
Cornwall, Pa, and Charles Allebach of
this city.
All the injured probably will re-
cover, although several are in seri-
Gus condition. Six cars carrying more
than 200 persons were involved in Ii
accident. An open car, heavily load
cd, was returning to the city and
when on the crest of steep hill be-
came unmanageable. The motorman
shut Off the power and applied the
brakes. The brake chain parted and
the car ran backward down the hill
at great speed. 1t crashed into the
car following it and the force of the
collision sent the second car back
into third and other cars at the
bottom of the hill. All the trolleys
were badly wrecked

Root Crops For Stock.

Root crops are valuable feed for
stock, especially during the winter.
when they supplement the rations Of
grain and other dry feed stuffs. They
thrive best In regions having moist
and cool weather. but nevertheless
enough heat and sunshine to promote
rapid growth during the growing sea-
son. In many sections of the northern
states root crops may be grown with
profit. but the fact that their culture is
not SO generally understood as 1t should
be Is probably the reason that they
are not grown so extensively In the
United States as In Canada and parts
of Europe.

THE SECOND TRIMMING.
Webster High School Hands the
Northern Normal a Lemon
in Eleven Inning
Game.

The second defeat for the Northern
Normal base ball team of Aberdeen
was marked on the calendar Saturday
afternoon on their own perfectly smooth
diamond when our oSn high school
team came home with the scalp of an
eleven inning game. 1t was without a
doubt the fastest ball game played in
this section of South Dakota in many
months, and in every sense of the word
proved supremacy.
There is no chance for NOR" boquets
at one player than at another In either
team as each player did his stunt in
manner that would make the big
leaguers sit up and take notice 1t was
an exhibition game where every player
gets raise of salary.
The game started off with Webster at
the bat and the lineup placed Cooper
first up and started the show with hit,
passed to second and then to third on a
sacrifice by Magnus. The next two
went out. In their halt Brady made a
line drive which Dyke took care of in
usual style; then Bakers grounder 70
Egeland met like fate and Dyke took
care of fly which retired tho side.
Our boys went out in fast order their
half of the second and went to the field
determined TO hand BACK spoonful of
the dope out of the same blue bottle
and following the usual Webster style
did things McKenna reached first on
hit and when Schsfer hit the sphere he
made for second but did not figure on
Egeland being in the game and when
Bart did the balloon act and made a
double poor Mac was taken so by sur
prise that it took an illustration in
the higher branches to prove him out
Petrie then walked by dead ball but
Cooper had clear case against him
when he tried to steal second pan.
The Webster half of the third proved
boomerang for the first three up.
First up for Aberdeen failed to make
good but Guhin got hit and advanced
by an sacrifice and went to third on an
error which gave Brady the first pan
A fly to Egeland cut off their hopes
In the fourth when Webster made their
first score Conley made hit went to
second on sacrifice and scroed on a
fly into right field The first three up
for Aberdeen went out Another score
in the fifth gave Webster the best of a

error giving Pitsor first pan and two

ORCHARD FERTILIZATION.
Three Elements Required by the Soil
For Best Results,

Three Elements Required by the Soil
For Best Results.
There is an idea more or less com
mon among fruit growers that if they
ere growing and removing no crops
from the space between the trees
no plant food is being removed from
their orchard soils. And they reason
therefore that ii is not necessary to
apply any fertilizing elements TO the
orchards. 1t is true that the soils in
the Bitter Root valley are rich in all
the elements required in the growth OF
plants, but it is only question of time
when the yields will decrease, and then
the farmers and orchardists will find
that they have been drawing on the
plant food in the soil until 1t is practi-
cally exhausted.

trees produce only small apples, while

the younger trees produce large apples.
The reason for this is usually attrib-
uted alone to the age of the trees and
not to the fact that the trees have been
for years drawing upon the plant food.
while nothing has been added to the
soil.
Professor G. G.. Hopkins Of the ILL
nois experiment station says In regard
to the fertility of the soil: "The pro-
ductive capacity Of practically all soils
In good physical condition is measured
by the available supply Of the three
elements, nitrogen, phosphorus and po-
tassium. These are the elements
which are present I'm nearly all soils In
comparatively small amounts and yet
are absolutely required by all agricul
tural plants and in very considerable
quantities"
Practically all grain farmers now
realize that it Is Improbable to at
tempt to grow several successive crops
on the same soil without adding fer
tilizers. In the west where the soils
have not yet been totally deprived OF
all food elements barnyard manure,
clover or peas and other legumes are
usually sufficient to keep the soil in
good productive condition, and these
manures are now applied at the proper
time by all progressive grain farmers.
Many fruit growers apparently rea-
son that it is not necessary to fertilize
soils upon which fruit trees are grow
ing.
1t is conceded by all progressive
farmers that in order to maintain the
soil fertility and get maximum crops
of grain from a given field 1t is neces-
sary to put back in the soil part at
least Of the food elements removed by
the crop. Since an apple crop removes
more plant food per acre than the
grain crops, it seems only reasonable
that more plant food should be re-
turned to the soil.
