''The planters themselves are to blame for this condition.
 "If half the planters caught in glut had delayed part of their crop 10 days or two weeks they would have saved the glut and been able to dispose of their products at reasonable price. They would have caught the market after the glut. if there had been glut. and would have been able to supply the normal de- mand that always follows a congestion.
 The growers of Jefferson county ana this community are getting wise to this condition and are learning to diversity and rotate their crops. They are learn ing to keep their crops growing and ma turing over q longer period of time and are making greater profits for that reason.
 "The item of green corn is a good ex- ample of what may be done by the grow CTS of this section. We can have green corn continuously from early in the sum mer until late in the fall through prac- tical succession of crops. Tomatoes may be grown in the same way as may be al most all the products of the field and garden.
 We have a number of Italian truck growers in the district who are making notable successes of the business. They not only sfss f4superior intelligence in the succession anos~ Atation of crops. but they grow a variety of products that are always salable.
 For instance, they grow spinach | i that the native growers know but little about or fail to appreciate. Of course there is not a large demand for these things in the district, but the demand is far greater than the local supply so far and these Italian growers find them prof itable.
 This is mentioned to illustrate their resourcefulness and wisdom in diversitica- tion of crops. By planting a large va

looked as though genuine crop dam
age had been taking place, owing to
hot winds throughouta wide sweep OF
Kansas and Nebraska. Predictions
were current in consequence that If
the harm should prove general corn
would take fire in the pit. AS a re-
suit the cereal led all others and
closed strong az a net gain OF %Tat

reliable way of determining the pres

in using the rod could answer ques-

was for yves" and the horizontal
movement for Uno." There was
great confidence placed in the in

As a general thing, the people in
the county had but li'tle knowledge

blue sand stone which had been dug
out of II c Silver Hills. A meeting
was held ty parties interested in the
project. George w Short of Green
vile, leading merchant and tobac-
conist, together with Duvall, was
delegated TO take some of the ore
and metal, that Duvall claimed to
have extracted by the use of his
iron ladlc and a wood hre.
They were instructed to go to
Cincinnati to an experienced as.
sayer's oihcc and have both rock
and metal tested. This was done.
The chemist stated that the vmetal"
was a mixture of metals and declared
it could not possibly have come out
of the sand rock, for the rock con
tanned no metal of any kind. But
Duvall argued that it did. SO Short
and Duvall left Cincinnati without
any encouragement. Short lost all
confidence in The silver business and
withdrew his support and influence
and remained quiet.
In spite of this set back much in
terest was still manifested by many
of the owners of the so called Silver
Hills. Dabney a. Martin, also a
merchant and tobacconist of Green
Vile, wanted another test made. SO
when he went to Philadelphia after
goods he took some of the blue sand
rock and the metal that Duvall
claimed to have "Tun" from The
rock, which he submitted to chem
lists and had it tested. They also
told him the "metal" was a mixture
of metals and that it did not come
out of the rock. This was another
damper on the silver excitement
Martin, like Short. lost confidence
in the silver situation.
