NEW YORK, June 5.-For a time the
market rallied, steadied itself, and then
wobbled, breaking more or less severely.
II was a plain case of the traders on
the Street doing just what they said
they would do, sell the market on every
rally. The rallying effort occupied the
morning hour, the steadying period
came in the last half of the first hour.
and then the break developed, prices
going off much faster than they had
recovered and 20 a greater extent.

run. The first was Martin

passed here at IL: 10, about

going some thirty miles off the
prescribed course and putting

penalized but once. This was
for killing the engine in max

CuItlvatIng Corn.

Cultivating corn is usually
looked upon from the stand
point of killing weeds. The
working of the soil from the
standpoint of saving moisture
is also very important. A
third thing to keep in mind in
cultivating is that the corn
roots come quite near the sur
face and that deep cultivation
cut them. The killing of weeds
is very important, as they rob
the corn of moisture and plant
food, which means reduced
yield.
To kill weeds. cultivator
should be used that has shovels
that will cut under the whole
surface and not leave any space
untouched, as the weed roots
that reach down through the
place that is not cut will be
J helped by the cultivation and
80 make a rapid growth. It is
not necessary to go deep to kill
weeds. An important thing to
keep in mind, however, is to
kill them when small.
To save moisture, the surface
soil should be kept loose and
