Corn Record on Cut-over
Pine Land.

The Chicago Southwest Trail
published by the Rock Island
people, says:
Chester Holly, aged is years,
has the distinction of getting the
highest yield of corn on cut-over
pine lands in Louisiana the fig
ure being Sc bushels to the acre.
The location of his little farm is
four miles from Alexandria.
Chester is a member of the Pine
hurst Agricultural club, which
numbered, during 1910, twenty
two active young men, who real
lied the Importance of develop
ing agriculture in their commu-
nifty. It was his first year as a
corn raiser and his success is
truly remarkable. He followed
the instructions of the organizer
for the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, Prof. v. L.
Roy, blowing deep, giving shall
low cultivation and using 200
pounds of commercial fertilizer.
His success not only brought him
the prize, but it did more; it
demonstrated what could be done
on the cut-over pine lands, which
can be bought at very cheap
rates. These lands offer ideal
opportunities for corn and hog
raising, and Chester Holly's ex-
ample, no doubt, will induce
farmers to give more attention
to corn.

HERMIT And ARTIST
ARE MARRIED IN
NATIONAL PARK,

Grand Junction, Colo, June
q. Standing before an altar OF
quartz and granite, carved and
fashioned by the hands of the
bride, on a narrow ledge 100 feet
from the ground and reached by
a trail hewn out of the solid rock
by the bridegroom, Miss Beatrice
Farnham, the Boston artist and
sculptures, and John Otto.
hermit, prospeetor and trail
builder, were married Tuesday
evening in the Monument Ma
tional Park, of which Otto has
recently been appointed super
intendent.
It had originally been planned
to hold the ceremony on the top
of the independence rock, a
lofty spire towering more than
500 feet in the air, the pinnacle
of which no one has reached be-
fore except Otto, who for months
has been cutting steps in the side
of the rock, but the minister
baked and a compromise was
effected.
Before the ceremony the bride
cooked the wedding feast over a
camp fire, then donned her we'd
ding gown of white satin with
long bridal veil, and made her
way to the foot of the cliff,
where the groom, in blue serge
coat and khaki trousers, awaited
beside the minister, who was
clad in the full robes of the
clergy.
Later, when the wedding gown
had been exchanged for a noun
tain climbing costume, the new
ly-wedded pair scaled Independ-
Shire and on It's pinnacle,
where they had planned to be
in the first place, re-
peated a marriage ceremony of
their own devising.
