Sandy Soil.

Sandy soil Is very easy to work, and
when the humus Is abundant the pro
ducuveness is not below that OF other
soils. Many sandy soils carry good
percentage OF clay, though that does
not appear TO the ordinary observ-
err. A soil that has no clay is not soil
but sand. Such is not suitable for
agricultural operations till IL has been
modified by the application OF clay
There are many localities where a
slight increase Of the clay content Of
the sand soil would greatly increase
its capacity. The clay makes the
sandy soil retentive OF moisture and
also enables IL 10 hold the soluble
plant food so necessary to the growth
OF plants.

END CAME SUDDENLY
Andrew Thomas Farr, Pioneer Of
County, Found Dead in His
Room on Thursday
DIED FROM HEART DISEASE

Andrew Thomas Carr one of the old
est and best known residents Of Keno
sha county was found dead in his bed
at his home in the Town Of Pleasant
Prairie late Thursday afternoon. Death
resulted from heart disease. Mr.. Farr
was eighty years Of age and he had
been in feeble health for some time.
Yesterday morning he had an attack Of
heart trouble and DR.. Ripley was called
to the house. At eleven clock the old
man had gone to sleep and the eager
watchers at his bedside had carefully
guarded his bed to prevent him from
being disturbed.
When he tailed to wake up in the
afternoon his aged widow went into the
room and noticed that he was very
quiet but still thinking that he was
sleeping she made no effort to disturb
him. Later her fears caused her to re
turn to the room and making an ex-
animation she found that the old gen
tlemen had dropped into the sleep that
knows no awakening. So peacefully
had he passed away that the members
of the family had not known the hour
of the approach of the grim messenger.
Doctors were hurriedly summoned, but
it was found that Mr.. Farr had been
dead for possibly half an hour before
his death was discovered.
Andrew Thomas Farr was born in
Londonderry, Ireland, March 10, 1928
and came to this country when a young
man. Eie came to this country more
than fifty years ago and had since
been a resident of the Town of Pleasant
Prairie. For many years he worked in
Kenosha as an employee of the Keno
sha Lumber Company At that time
he resided on the farm just south of the
city now owned by Col. Dougine. He
is survived by a widow, two daughters
and one son.

FOR SQUARE DEAL
The Government Will Better the
Mail Services Throughout
the Country Soon
RAILWAY MEN ARE HAPPY

AS result of a recent conference
held in Washington, managers Of rail
roads believe new era is about to
dawn in the transportation of mails
throughout the country. After talk
ing over mail problems with James I.
Cleary, second assistant postmaster
general, and the members of the com
mission appointed for the purpose, it is
believed the railroads will in the future
cooperate in trying to better the SER
vice instead of trying to get the best of
each other, as in the past.
AS an evidence of his purpose to
treat the railroads fairly, the second
assistant stated that, in his opinion, the
method employed by the department. in
assessing fines for delays in trans
porting the mails had not bettered the
service. The house appropriation bill
cuts out fines, and, whether the SEN
ate measure does the same or not,
there is reason to believe that the
evenues Of the railroads from the trans
portation of mails will not be diminish
ed by approximately 100000 annual
ly in the way Of fines.
In the past fines have been assessed,
it is claimed, unfairly, by being ex-
tended over an entire route, no matter
if a mail train was late only at the ter
minal point and on time everywhere
else. The fning system as imposed by
the department serves only the pur
pose Of angering the roads and of con
tinually st1aining relations between
them and the department. All Of the
men in Chicago who are in charge of
the transportation Of mails on the vari-
GUS railroads are outspoken in their be-
lief that they are going to get square
deal hereafter. If this proves to be
the case, it is stated, the government
will see the mail service bettered in a
thousand small ways, which will in
the aggregate greatly improve the gen
eral efficiency of the department..

DEMAND FOR FARM HELP

Present demand for farm help is far
grea ter than the supply. The employ
ment offices have several calls each day
for competent farm hands. Many of
these requests come from prosperous
farmers in Bristol, Salem, and other
western towns of Kenosha county.
It is true there are numerous appli-
cants seeking employment, yet not one
out Of ten can meet the requirements
of good farm hand. The dairy farms
must have men who can milk and are
accustomed to caring for cattle. The
sugar beet and cabbage industries call
for men who understand the tilling Of
the soil and can handle horses.
The day is past (if it ever existed)
when the average unskilled laborer
can make good on the farm.
So great has been the call fer help
from the agricultural districts the past
two weeks that men with farm expert
ence coming in from Chicago and other
cities have Immediately secured posi-
tions Wages Of single men range from
$40. 200 to $500 per month, together
with board and washing. Married men
are given a house, garden, milk and
from $3.50 to $500 per year Only men
of experience, however, receive these
wages.
Under these existing conditions it is
not necessary for the man of farm ex-
perienoe to go idle very long. He can
strike out into the country and secure
steady employment without any diff
ficulty.
It is preferable to facing period
of enforced idleness in the city during
the summer months, and men who can,
are taking advantage of the opportuni-
