The firm soil below the seed,
well connected with the subsoil,
supplies the moisture to the seed,
while the mellow soil above the
seed allows sufficient circulation
of air to supply oxygen and
favors the warming of the soil,
gathering the heat of the sun
shine during the day and acting
as a blanket to conserve the soil
heat, maintaining more uniform
Temperature of the soil during
the night.
The mellow soil above the seed

The too-mellow, deep seed-bed
is almost wholly dependent upon
rains for sufficient moisture to
terminate the seed and start the

bed, drouth is very apt to injure
the crop because of the rapid
drying out of the loose soil to the

very apt to "burn out" in sum-
mer, but it is also more apt to

The Seed Bed For Winter Wheat.

The soil conditions and en-
vironment suitable for the sue
cessful growth of a wheat crop
are we'll established and fairly
well understood. With good seed,
a few simple factors largely de-
ternine the stand and the yield
of the crop and the quality of the
grain produced.
In order to secure the ideal
condition for seed termination
and plant growth, a seed-bed for
planting wheat and other small
seeds should not be mellow to
too great a depth, but rather the
soil should be mellow and we'll
pulverized only about as deep as
the seed is planted. Below that
depth the soil should be firm and
well settled, making a good con-
nection with the subsoil, so that
the soil water stored in the sub
soil may be drawn up into the
soil.

Spirit Of Working Together.

For the third time this year an
American railroad reports that it
has operated its lines for II
months without losing the life of
a single passenger. The Sata
Fe, with its 9, 794 miles of active
ly operated track, takes place
with the Burlington and the
Pennsylvania, on.this roll of hon
or. The Santa Fn carried IL, 605,-
697 passengers without a fatality.
Wonderful as this efficiency
record is. its explanation is as
marvellous. Even more than to
heavy rails, ballast or equip
ment," says one of the roads
officials, I'VE attribute the sue
cessful record for the year to
the spirit of working together,
which much run through the
rank and file of the men operat-
ing the trains" In other words,
American railroading is Kidding
itself of its greatest operating re-
proach by sheer will power.
This is the force that has level
ed mountains, filled up canyons,
bridged arms of the sea itself. It
can have few loftier ideals in the
practical workings of a railroad
than the maintenance of the sa-
credness of human life. There isl
every reason to believe that its
success has been repeated upon
other lines, and that it will be
extended to other systems still
as it becorns a matter upon
which all American railroads
feel a proud spirit Of emulation.

Is ChiyaIry Dead.

The body of girl who had
taken her own life was found in
a New York lodging house the
other day. Beside it was note
addressed to her mother in Can
ada. 1t read:
Dear Mother: | have lost my
/ job. | have no money left tt
pay my board. | cannot fine
work, and / am afraid to ask
help from any man in New
York.
Is the terrible reflection upor
American manhood that is i'm
piled in these words justified by
facts? Is the age of chivalry
forever passed? Did this poor
girl actually run the risk she
imagined in seeking assistance
from a man?
These are questions worth
while considering. We fear that
beneath the bitterness of her
words, uttered in the extremity
of her need, there lies a measure
of truth to the utter shaming of
our Twentieth century civiliza-
ton.
Hundreds of good men in New
York would have been ready to
help had they known her need,
and would have expected no con-
cession in return; but how was
she to know the good men from
the bad? How was she to tell
the man Of honor and chivalrous
regard for womanhood from the
wolf who takes advantage of any
woman that comes within his
power?
No difference in dress would
mark the distinction. Education
and culture are not seals of de-
cency. The devil of lust and
impurity, too often is CARRIED in
fine raiment and has all the
graces Of the schools and society.
There lies the danger. The girl
knew it, and sooner than run the
risk she took her life.
There is no need for a cam
paign among men for the renew
al of true chivalry. We have
much of the veneer that passes
beneath the name, the courtesy,
the compliment and the. consid-
Grafton for women that is due
their sex. But the deeper chiv-
airy that loves and honors wom-
anhood, that will defend it all
costs, and most Loyalty when it
is the victim of circumstances
and the possibly prey of the vici-
Gus, even when its own weak
ness and willingness to sin is its
greatest foe of this chivalry we
have not enough. Louisville

Democg IS Swept Kentucky.


The elections throughout Ken
lucky proved to be regular fete
day for triumphant Democracy
and many counties and districts
that had wandered from the true
faith and persisted for years in
being joined to their idols, re-
turned to the fold. In some cases
Republican county officials are
entirely supplanted by the ma
jority of the offices.
In the contests for Senators
and Representatives to the next
Legislature, the Democrats made
most surprising gains, capturing
the heretofore most impregnable
Republican strongholds by deci-
sive majorities, making it evident
that the voters had become dis
gusted with the cant an hypocri-
ey of the Republicans in power
at Frankfort, and only await the
opportunity to sweep theml from
the State Capitol by a majority
that will express their true tenn
per.
The Democrats elected a great
majority of the Circuit Judges
and commemorative Attorneys
to the thirty three judicial dis
tricts. In the Pineville district,
Circuit Judge M. j. Moss, Re-
publican, who has occupied the
bench for many years, was de-
feaCed by w. T. Davis, who ran
as an independent Republican.
He won over Judge Moss in ev-
cry county of the district.
Laurence Finn, the Democrat
ic. nominee for Railroad Commits
sioner in the First district, had
an easy time defeating his Re-
publican opponent, John P. Has
well.
The only thing to mark the
completeness Of the Democrtic
victory!that seemed to- be general
was in Lexington and Fayette
county, where the Democrats
went dowa in defeat before the
onslaught Of the Fusion Repub-
lican forces headed by Judge
Watts Parker for Circuit Judge.
The only officers the Democrats
saved from the wreck were w.

the Legislature, and Bradley for
County Assessor, However, 9TH

the official count will show them
to be winners. Louis. Times.

An cratic Girl Who Has Seen Ha.

Miss Elizabeth Magic, ''the
girl with the gray green nyes, !"
who a few years ago attracted
worldwide attention by offering
herself to the highest bidder.
has startled Chicago with a
sociological dissertation entitled,
A graphic dissertation of hell,
by one who is acturlly in it..
Miss Magic, in this new decla-
ration, pictures in the servitude
in which she says the masses of
the American people are living,
and tells of the suffering, hard
ships. embarrassments and I'M
pleasantness she has endured be-
cause she is self-supporting.
Here are some of her epigrams:
"It is hell to have superior
education and have to work for
and obey the commands of ignor-
ance.
ITO have sensitive and re-
fined nature and have to be for
ever brushing up against pigs.
TO have an ear for music and
have to be tortured by street
organs.
ITO know that you can do
some things better than other
people and never have an oppor-
tunity to prove it.
ITO hitch your wagon to a star
and then have the darned star
start off before you can get into
the wagon.
ITO long for a little home
where you can plant and tend a
few flowers and have to live in

"To hang on to a street car
strap, with several bundles I'M
der your other arm, and see
silver-harnessed bulldogs riding
by in automobiles.
''To pray for an angel and get
a devil.
To crave the society Of clean,
cultured people and have the
janitor invite you to an amuse-
ment park.
TO love the best candy and
never have any.
ITO have a clear conscience
and a clean record and go to bed
hungry.
To have long-faced, sancti-
monious cusses tell you that He
Loveth whom He chasteneth.'
ITO always be in debt to the
land-lady.
TO have these everlasting
don't worry and keep smiling,
signs staring you in the face
when you don't know where
your next meal is coming.
