in part to make it hold water better.
Soil that has lost its vegetable
matter easily dries out and becomes

OF the most important things before
the farmer for consideration, and in
no way can he so easily do it as by
keeping stock in sufficient numbers
to pick it over, tramp it down and
reduce it to manure.

subpoena served. He could not find
anyone to do it. Bailiff and other
court room attaches rang telephone
bells and chased about the building in
frantic search but to no avail. The
sheriff nor his deputy could not be
found. At last when all hope seemed
lost. the attorney gave up the case
without an examination of the witness
and tore up the subpoena
Later the deputy sheriff came into
the court room. While the search had
been in progress he was serving pa
pers in the west end of the county. He
walked into the court room serene in
his innocence and ignorance of what
had happened. The court was 80 i'm
pressed at the suspicious entry that
an adjournment was taken long
enough to welcome the minion of the
law.
1t was good vaudeville and the
court, attorneys and jurors apprec iat-
ed it to the utmost. The only person,
who did not seem to enjoy the affair
was the prosecuting witness in the
case at bar.
