the acre depends upon the humus IN
the ground, the ommercial and
homemade fertilizer used and the
cultivation
Intensive cultivation is another es-
sental of the farm demonstration
methods. Mr.. Mclean advises his pu-
pills to cultivate as often as once in
eight days the first time from four
to six inches deep, and after that
the cultivation must be very shallow,
so as not to disturb the growing roots,
which soon form a network over the
field. OF course the right amount of
fertilizer, it's nature and the umin g
of it, are important elements. At
planting time the demonstration ad-
vises the use of small amount OF
fertilzer-say one or two hundred
pounds to the acre. The second cul-
tivation sees another application in
every second middle, and at the third
cultivation the alternate middle gets
it's share. Just before the tassels
come, look the field over carefully and
if it shows yellow, give it an apDllca-
ton of nitrate Of soda. Briefly stated,
these are the principles Of the demon
straton methods of corn culture. That
they have proved wise may be inferred
from the fact that in every case or
contest with less careful and ad-
vanced methods they have won.

thing and he is proving that he was
not mistaken in his surnise, for he
shows all the carnarks OF an uG-to-

cleared a few acres Of his land and
decided to put part of 1t into corn.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.-Now that
Jcffries and Johnson have given the
public an opportunity to judge their re-
spective conditions within a week of one
another. it is possible to make com
parative estimate of the physical con-
ditiOn Of the two modern Hercules of
the ring.
To the Question. Which man looks
best?" put TO scores of night fans, cne
thing stands out clear and distinct in
all replies given. and that is the race
prejudice; but, Notwithstanding, the
verdict was Overwhelmingly in favor OF
Johnson.
Some Of the men came out flat-footed
with the choice, others gave it grude-
ingly and qualified it with butts" and
ifs" A scattering minority seemed
really to think that Jeffries' condition
was better; bur, in the majority of
cases. il was only too apparent that,
with those who favored the white mans
condition. the wish was largely the
parent of the position.
There is no doubt that Jeffries gives
the impression Of a crushing force as
compared to Johnson, but Johnson is
the wiry, rangy build of athlete, while
Jeffries is the compact and muscular.
They are distinct types. That Jefries

a shadow Of a doubt; but let no one go
