CONvJOIS ESCAPE ON ENGINE
Five train robbers, serving life Sec
tences, escaped from the federal prison
near Leavensworth, Kansas, early yes-
terday. Within q short time two of the

taken.
The break for liberty was made about
8 O'Clock and was the result of cleVerly
planned plot upon the part of the FIVE
convicte.
Two OF the convicts we're at work In
the carpenter shop, aud the others were
In the tailor shop. A Union Pacific
switch -snglne had backed iDt> the
prison yard. At the souud of the whistle
the men dashed into the yard and made
toward the engine. Leveliug dummy
guns at the engineer, the men climbed
into the cab aud compelled him to re.
verse his engine.
The engine, With the convict' aboard,
rushed through the west gate into the
npea ccu'try, and soon was speeding
toward the woods.
When the escape became knowp, q
few mil u.es later, the siren whistle at
tae prison, which csn be heard for miles,
was sounded as warning to farmers to
be on the lookout At the same time

Kill Grass Before II Comes Up.

If a heavy rain falls before plants

How Much Fertilizer Should We Use.

Perhaps, on average lands. from
200 pounds to 400 pounds Of COM
mercial fertilizers under corn,
and from 400 to 900 pounds un-
der cotton Is the safest for the
general farmer, but some find it
profitable to use even more. For
special crops, yielding large gross
money returns psr acre, larger
quantities are generally profta-
BILE, in some instances as large
as from 1000 pounds to 5000
pounds per acre; but these large
quantities should only be used
when experience or tests show
that they pay.-Raleigh IN. CO.

Twelve Things to do on the Farm This
Month,

(1) See that the seed bed for
ell crops is not merely we'll brok-
en- but thoroughly %pulverized by
narrowing and disking. An ounce
of preparation may be worth a
pound of cultivation.
(2) Get ready with weeders
and harrows to kill the grass be-
fore it comes up. Don't be afraid
of hurting the stand. This Will
not happen.
(3) Place orders for all inn
proved plows, harrows, weeders,
cultivators, and other labor-sav-
ing, tools and machinery. Get
ready to make your crop with
cheap horse labor instead of ex-
pensive hand labor.
az Don't waste time and
sweat on scrub seed or scrub stock
this year. Improved varieties
will pay as we'll with field crops
as with garden crops.
~ Got ready to share with
the Western farmer his golden
food of profits i'll raising hogs
and cattle. First of all, get an
imvroved breed, and then ar.
range to feed economically. With
proper pasture crops both pork
and beef can be made more cheap
ly in the South than in the West.
(6) Of the over $4,000, 900
spent in the South for fertilizers
each year at least 100000 600 Is
wasted through ignorance Of crop
needs and soil needs. Try to stop
your part of this colossal loss.
ca Join in the great corn
raising revival now sweeping over
the South. The biggest corn
crops the world has known have
been made in the South, and we
are just waking up to the fact
that Dixie can beat the Corn Belt
itself raising this kind Of cereals.
~ Don't forget the garden,
a I'D don't make your wife 20 all
the work in it. Remember, veg
etables are cheaper than meat and
more healthful.
(9) We cannot have good fruit
now without spraying. A good
spray pump will often pay for it
self the first year, In the orchard
and potato patch.
(10) Drag the roads after ev.
cry rain. The split-log drag is
the cheapest good roads maker
ever invented.
(11) Paint the farmhouse and
whitewash the outbuildings that
you do not care to paint. It will
pay you simply in your increased
of pride and dignity.
(12) Get your boy to join the
Boys Corn Club movement with
All acre of corn, and give your
girl a flock of pure bred chickens.
And be sure to let each one have
the money he or she makes from
thi, allotment Raleigh (N.C.)
