That II Is used by our most pros
porous farmers is good evidence OF
Its value. The time It takes, compar-

~HE OLDER l GROW the more


crop Many things come to our aid
in this thorough preparation that
tend to tighten the labor. Storing the
soil skeleton with humus is perhaps
the greatest aid we can bring to our
use to promote economical soil culti-
vation. And the more Of this life
giving substance we incorporate with
our soils the more efficient will the
other agencies we bring to our use
in the work of soil preparation be-
come.
So, in discussing the most efficient
farm tools, l am taking the liberty
of placing humus at the head of the
list. What man among my readers
who, plowing or narrowing a field,
has not come across spots that fairly
fell into a first-class seed bed of
their own accord? Do you remember
what seemed to be the cause of this
beautiful mechanical condition OF
soil? Certainly you remember that
these spots were absolutely full to
overflowing with humus. When you
come to go over the matter carefully
! think you will agree with me that
no soil pulverizing tool has ever been
invented that will equal humus. This
is one of the reasons why on Sunny
Home Farm we are bending every en-
ergy to bring humus into our soils
as rapidly as is practical with eco-
nomical farming We do not believe
in sacrificing feed value in our rush
for humus. but first secure the value
Of our humus-making plants, then
send the residue to the fields as soon
as possible.
Another tool we try as much as
possible to make use OF in the pre-
paration Of seed beds is "Old Jack
Frost" Go a-field after week of
sharp, freezing weather and note
what this gentleman has done to your
freshly plowed land All your
neighbors, with their disks, Acme's,
spike-tooth, spring-tooth harrows
and weeders, would have had to
work hard several days and the work
would have cost you dollars and dol
lars and then you wouldn't have had
as finely prepared seed bed as
Jack fixed up for nothing. All he
asks is that we get awake and put
our lands in shape for him to work
on to the best advantage. Our be-
lief in this theory we are talking is
proven by the fact that we are prac-
ticing winter plowing of every acre
OF land it is possible for us to break
of the coming year crop acreage.
Theory put into practice; book
farming" don't you see?
Then another tool we are using be-
cause we have found it to be practical
for the average farmer, and salts
flying because it is tool that never
wears out and seldom needs any re-
pairs, is tile drainage. This is
fine tool to use along with humus
and Jack Frost. The tiles open up
the subsoil to great depth, remov-
ing surplus water, SO that warmth,
bacteria and air may work upon the
vegetable matter in the soil, decom-
posing this humus-making product,
shaking it about, pairing off a par
ticle Of dead soil with a particle of
humus, thus setting up thousands of
splendid little homes in the soil
wherein plant roots may dwell and
develop so rapidly as to fairly shoot
their more aristocratic stems and

Dutch Fork Citizsn is Opposed
to Annexation.
To the Editor of Tne Dispatch:

To the Editor of Tne Dispatch:
The ann xation scheme is before us
again in full blast. From what I can
learn, the people OF New Brookland
want to annex with Richland to get a
free bridge Who has promised free
bridge? + say whenever they get .
free bridge they will pay for it. Some
want to go t" ct lighter taxes; some
want "a go to reap some Of the t''spel
sare profits; some want to 80 because
they nod malice iii their heart a;!.aiust
Lexington county, and they cau'l Tell
why: some want 10 60 because "thes'
say it will enhance the value Of their
property, and some want to 60 just 10
be going.
Now, let me tell YOU, fellow citizens,
kind friends and neigh hbors, 1 don't
care where you 60, you will pay for
what you get. The day of giving is
past.
And, as for the Fork, can't see for
my life what it wants to annex with
Richland for, but I suppose to vote
more bonds to free those bridges.
They haven't gotten enough OF paying
for bonds. AS fer myself, have had
bonds enough to do NE the balance of
my life, let it be long Or short. They
want to buy al cid, diiapidated
bridge at good price, which is liable
to burn down ct any time, thus re-
cessitating the building of steel
bridge at considerable cost. TIE
stockholders. am told, are anxious
to sell. I 10 ros blame them at all.
The bridge is getting in critical con-
dition and only bringing a snail divi-
dend.
Where is the advantage in splitting
the For? None whatever. In the
next place, RichIand don't want it;
she has her hands full already to carry
on her own business. On the other
hand, it will misput the people ~
causing many of them to pay taxes in
both counties. Furthermore, il will
put the people of Lexington to tie
unnecessary expense and trouble of
holding an election. say it is un-
called for.
would like to ask in all candol:
Do the Ricnland leaders think, deep
down in their hearts, that they are
treating the citizens who would be
left in Lexington neighborly? No.
Put yourselves in their places and
make an honest confession, tell the
truth and shame the devil. Do you
think it right to crooh about and cut
off all of the most valuable properly,
after we have helped TO pay for the
railroad, to take all of the railroad
and all the towns? say it is AL out
rage. We people who live in this lit
tie wedge will not be represented at
all; we wont even have voting pre-
cinct. Irepeat that it is an outrage,
and say it openly and above board.

London, May 31-Theodore Roose-

formally presented with an address by
the City Corporation, handsomely
embellished and in a gold casket.
This ceremony, commonly referred to
as the presentation of 1.-The freedom
of the city, was in pursuance of a
time-honored custom, dating from
many centuries back, which demands
that whenever the head of state or
other person of great distinction visits
England he shall be entertained by
the Corporation of the City of London
in their ancient and picturesque
Guildhall
Owing to the court mourning many
of the picturesque and spectacular fea-
lures were of course omitted from to-
days ceremony. Nevertheless the
visit to Guildhall and the informal re
ception were attended with consider
able magnificence, and the occasion,
which added one more to the many
historical incidents in the annals of
the ancient city of London, afforded
the population of the metropolis an
opportunity of manifesting with spon-
taneous goodwill their friendly senti-
ments toward the United States.
The reception in honor of Mr..
Roosevelt was attended by over one
thousand guests, among whom were
the ministers of the cabinet, high Off
GERS of state, members of the city
government and many representative
Americans. Minister Reid accom-
panied Mr. Roosevelt so Guildhall

flee, where General Grant was once
