Game Law Held Lacking.

On December 8, 1907. G v.
Randolph, a citizen of Phelps
county. Mo, was arrested on a
charge of hunting without a
license in Pulaski, an adjoining
county. MIR Raudolph's attor.
neys filed motion to quash the
information alleging that the
game and fish law enacted by
the last legislature prescribes
no punishment for a citizen of
one county hunting in an ad-
joining county without a license.
Judge Woodside sustained the
motion to quash and ordered
the defendant discharged. This
decision renders the present
game and fish law almost worth
less.--Chariton Courier.

to tell you how to vote. If you
are dry don't be afraid to vote
that way and if you are wet
don't be morally co.erced into

Soil Treatment for Corn on the North
east Missouri Prairie.

SNAHS SSuNuSbCO Oy TUG HaS liSul'
tural Experiment Station on the
experimental field at Monroe
City have shown some very in
teresting results with corn.
which are quite widely availa.
BILE. 1t will be understood that
these experiments are designed
to determine the best soil treat
ments for the various farm
crops on this land and they in
clude such matters as the grow.
ing of cowpeas for their effect
on the soil together with the
addition of lime, of bone and of
potash in various combinations.
In 1907 the yields of corn from
the various treatments were as
follows:
Cowpea......-44.2 bu. per acre.
Cowpeas and lime~.......51 blu.
per acre
Cowpeas, lime aud boue.........
"a 4 bu per acre.
Cowpeas, lime, bone and pot
ash.......~55 3 bu. per acre.
Soil receiving no treatment
....~..-38 bu per acre.
1t will be seen that cowpeas
increase the yield 6-2 bushels
per acre, cowpeas and lime 10
bushels per acre, cowpeas, lime,
and bone 1914 bushels per acre.
cowpeas, lime. bone and potash
17.3 bushels per acre.
From these results some very
valuable lessons may be drawn.
In the first place since this land
needs nitrogen the use of cow
peas is of special value. They
are best handled by sowing
them as a catch crop either
in the corn or after some other
crop has been taken off the land
and pasturing them with sheep
or hogs A number of men in
this region are already sowing
cowpeas in their corn for pas.
ture in this pay and are reapiug
good returns in forage as we'll
as improving their soil. The
cowpeas can be grown very sue
cessfully on this land when pro.
perly handled and especially IN
the aatted prairie where clover
freezes out they are to he
strongly recommended. A lutte
persistence in growing them
will bring success
The use of lime for corn while
giving some results IN this case,
is recommended only an expert
mental way and then on the
fatter wetter phases of the ter
ritory.
The value of bone meal on
this land is strikingly brough
out by these experiments while
the value of potash does not
seem to be so important. Since
this land lacks phosphates so
very much as shown in the an.
alyses one would expect that
the phosphates would give re.
suits. Bone meal is reccommen-
ded largely because it is avail.
able in most parts OF this terri
tory. For immediate result the
superphosphate may be better
applied at the same rate as the
bone meal, while for a long Sc.
ries OF years rock phosphate
will undoubtedly give better re.
turns than either.
1t should be said in general
regarding the use of either bone
or MT sh Go. 10r,, khaA - aoo,.

Knew Needham as BroscOe.
Mr.. J. H. Blandford, of T. B., Md.

Mr.. j. H. Blandford, of L. B., Md
writes THE ENC UIRER to say:
In an article of your paper of recent
date it is stated that body found IN
Roberts woods, near Camp Springs
Md, was identified as Charles Needham,
known to me as "Broscoe."
On December Goth last I was in Wash
ington and met Broscoe at small hotel
on Eighth street, between E and G
streets southwest.
He was in a pitiful condition from
the effects of drink and begged me to
take him to the country, saying 1t W ould
save his life. consented and he stay
ed with me until Sund ay, the goth, when
he seemed much improved.
About 10 o'clock that morning he
suddenly became very anxious to visit
a friend of his near Silver Hill, Mr.. j.
O. Thompson. l endea vored TO per-
suade him to wait until my hors es re-
turned from chur CHI when I would send
him. But he would not, and said he
preferred to walk. Taking lunch in
his pocket he started about 1890. This
was the last time l ever saw him.
According to his own story he left
England at the. age of 13 for Boston.
Since that time he has wandered about
the country, living at cheap hotels, do
ing chores and playing the piano for
MS board.
