Chas. H. Owens, Henry
Medlin, Henry shupp and
Andrew Brown, COL, whose
arrest we mentioned last week
for removing the body of DIR. H.
P. Overturff's son from one lot
to another in the City cemetery
at Brunswick, and whose trial
was in progress before Justice
Warner Ford of Keytesville as
the COURIER went to press last
week, were all found not guilty
after Judge Ford heard the testi.
mony of about . dozen witnesses.
The attorneys for the state
were ]. E. Montgomery. prose.

the defendants.
We clip the following histoti.
Gal sketch Of the case from the
Brunswicker Of last week:
The trouble grew out of the
removal Of the body Of Ernest
Overturff, q son of DR.. Overturff,
who was buried in the City Gem.
etery August go, 1908.
After the body had been buried
for several months it wss found
that through q mistake the body
had not been buried in the Over.
turf lot, but on q lot near by,
belonging to J. j. Heisel. The
attention of the city authorities
was called to the matter, and
proceedings were begun for the
removal of the body. Mr.. Hei.
sci agreed to pay the expense of
removing the body to the right
lot. The city authorities thought
this would be satisfactory, but
when they consulted DR.. Over.
turf he refused to allow the body
to be removed unless the CITY
would give him another lot 40x40
feet, or buy him q lot in Elliott
Grove cemetery. The lot which
DR.. Overturff owned was 10x20 |
feet. The city authorities told
him they had no right to give
him another lot, but to avoid
trouble they agreed finally to exc
change hum any 20x20 foot un.
occupied lot in the City cemetery
and to have the body removed
without expense to him. He re.
fused this offer also. Finally, to
bring an end to the matter. the
city council ordered the body
taken up and placed in the origi.
nal o. erturff lot. and notified DR..
Overturff that this would be done.

cemetery and removed the body.
A few days later DR.. Overturff
had the body taken up again and
placed in Elliott Grove cemetery.
He then went to Keytesville and
swore out state warrants for the
arrest of the two councilmen, the
sexton and the three workmen
who removed the body.

The Sewing Of C0vvpeas An the
Germ.

| AAS SVWWM8 " SSwSRG4S N hM$
Corn.
The use Of cowpeas as Q crop
to be sown in the corn is destin-
ed to become more and more
common in Missouri. Corn alone
is very wearing on the land as
every one knows, and with the
increasing value of farm lands q
way must be found to keep up
the fertility at the same time that
the farmer is making q money
return per acre. Crop rotation
is naturally q first essential in
this building up and maintaining
OF the fertility, but to improve
the land most rapidly use must
be made of extra legume crops
thrown in between the regular
crops to add nitrogen and humus.
Cowpeas can be used in this way
the most readily of any crop
grown in Missouri and with very
great profit.
A knowledge Of handling COW.
peas in the corn is necessary to
success. Many men have at
tempted THE practice and have
failed because of improper
methods of handling. The com.
mon practice is to SOW them
broadcast in the corn at the last
cultivation at the rate of two or
three pecks per acre and while
this is satisfactory over q great
deal Of the southern part of the
state it is not 30 satisfactory on
central and northern Missouri
lands. This practice is particu.
larly adapted to the lowlands of
Southeast Missouri. On the up.
lands, however, one frequently
fails to get q stand when putting
them in this way. A better
practice is to use q one.horse
drill, putting them in ct the time
of the last plowing. On some
lands this drilling will give
sufficient cultivation to take the
place OF the last blowing of the
corn. In any case the corn
should be laid by Q little earlier
than usual to be sure of getting
q good stand. The variety to
use in this case ia the new Era as
q first choice and Whippoowill
as q second choice. Cowpeas
may be sown in the row with the
corn quite satisfactorily and this
is becoming quite common. They
are either mixed in the planter |
box, using about l 1.2 times as
many peas as corn, or they. may
be put in with,a special cowpes
attachment to the corn planter.
The latter method is much to be
preferred as it will give a more
even stand of both corn and peas.
One difficulty in handling peas
in this way is due to the fact that
oowpeas are badly stunted should
q sold spell of weather come
after they are up. AS a matter
Of fact it is usually better to
postpone complaining until the
last half of May in Central Mis-.
souri, when cowpeas are to be
put in the row. The best variety
Tor this purpose depends upon
The use that is to be made of
hem. If they are to be pastured
With hogs, the WhippoorNill or
he Black should be used. If
hey are to be cut up With a corn
binder, use q climbing variety
ike the Clay which will climb the
talks.
