body was dragged through the streets
and he was hanged TO the Elks'
Arch. high above the heads OF the
avenging citizens, The mob was led
by an old negro.
With Il all. hardly a loud word
was spoken. not n shot was fred,
and above the dull murmurings OF
the mob could be heard the aged ne
gro's trembling shrieks for mercy.
For nearly three hours after Brooks
was hanged, Dallas was in the hands
OF the mob. The Jail was stormed
and death Was threatened 20 three

BEATEN TO DEATH.

Instantly dozens OF men jumped
on him with their feet and his face
was kicked into a pulp and he was
bruised all over, probably dying
within a few minutes. A score OF men
seized the rope, and at the head OF
the mob, dragged the negro's body
twelve blocks up Main Street TO. the

The police cut the body down in
about five minutes. II was taken TO

The march was made to the county
jail. The Sheriff announced that the
men wanted were not there and al
lowed committees selected by the
mob TO search the prison. The ne

the mob could not be satisfied. They
battered at the jail door with a steel

A committee announced that the
negroes were not in the jail. g.

sideratiOn of the compost heap.
The Compost Heap.
BY the compost heap the farmer is
able to multiply his available manure
MANIFOLD. We should remember that
anything of vegetable or animal origin
is d valuable fertilizer if put in proper
condition.. The compost heap is the
means of doing this. One ton of
leaves contains f6 pounds Of nitrogen,
6 pounds Of phosphoric acid, and G
values for these substances is worth
nearly SO A ton Of straw similarly
is worth $2.25, and sawdus $3.50.
These values, Of course, are based on
TN ir total composition. In actual
practice it is safe to assume that half
Of their values are available. But it
is only after undergoing fermenta-
ton in the compos heap hat these
| values are available.
That it will pay the farmer to give
more attention to the conpost heap
has been repeatedly proved by prac-
t1cal trials. At the North Louisiana
Experiment Station, Calhoun, La, the
following results were obtained: The
land normally would produce On~-
fourth of a bale of cotton and Z to 10
bushel Of corn to the acre. BY the
annual application Of 80 bushels per
acre OF a compost composed of stable
manure. cotton seed, acid phosphate.
and load this yield has been increased
to from j IA to l 1-2 bales Of cotton
and SO to SO bushels Of corn. The an
nual expense of applying this compost
amounted to q little over 81 per acre.
