CELERY GROWING
In Christian County Has Prov
en- Great Success.

For a quarter of century Hop
kinsville people have been eating
celery brought from Kalamazoo,
Mich. And the impression was gen.
eral that white, crispy celery could
only be raised in the section where
Kalamazoo is located.
There is no reason why celery
should not become one of the staples
Of Christian county. w. R. Brum-
field. the leading market gardener,
whose farm is about mile from the
city, has been delivering celery TO
the grocers ever since the season
opened and his crop has already sup
planted the Kalamazoo product.
Mr.. Brumfeld put in five acres
this year. previously having put in a
small spot in his market garden so
that he could get on to the best way
of cultiyating and bleaching it. Now
ne Is as expert IN raising 1t as any
thing else he grows for market.
His celery is larger than that usually
shipped in from Kalamazoo and is in
every way preferable. Though it
does not run so large as the stalks
sometimes sent here from California,
the California stalks are coarse and
lack in f4vor-the real essential de-
manded by the epiclre and all who
are fond of it.
Market gardening is becoming
more general every year among
farmers near the city and there is
no reason why celery should not be
largely produced by those whose
sail may be specially adapted to it.
but every reason why it should.

Legal Opinions Rendered That
His Term Of Office Is
Not Out.
ATTORNEY GENERALS VIEW
SustainS the Opinion Rendered
By County Judge
Knight.

The squabble in the Fiscal Court
over the office of Supervisor of
Roads has been apparently settled
by decision rendered by Attorney
General James Garnett.
The legislature of 1912 repealed
the law authorizing a supervisor
and passed one providing for a Road
Engineer. This law became effect
i've in June, providing that super
visors in Office should serve out
their terms.
E. W. Coleman, supervisor, was
re elected for new term of two
years April 10, 1912, after the new
law was passed but before it took
effect. The contention arose over
this point. The Attorney General
decides that Mr.. Coleman was legal
ly reelected. as the new law was
not then in effect, and is entitled to
serve until April 10. 1914. Judge
Knight, who had the matter. under
advisement, has also rendered a de-
cision in accordance with the opin-
ion of the Attorney General and Mr..
Coleman is still in the Office.

cent ammonia, per cent phosphoric
acid and to 10 per cent potash. The
raw material for the ammonia shou'd
be of an organic nature, such as cot
tcnseed meal, dried blood, or tankage,
and the potash should be sulphate D
potash, as the chlorine in the muriate
or in kainit is not as good raw ma
terial to use, as IL tends to give dark
inferior grade OF syrup.
When the crop begins to Joint out, a
op-dressing Of nitrate Of soda should
be applied broadcast at the rate or
two hundred pounds per ac4e and
worked well into the soil by the most
appropriate tool, such as a sweep or
weeder. This would increase the am
monia content Of the fertilizer to five
per cent, leaving the others almost the
same as already indicated. This top
dressing gives a boost to the crop at
the period of its growth when 1t mqst
needs 1t, from the quick availability of
the nitrate of soda and the soil being
then full of feeding roots.
The quantity to be used is best de-
ciGed by the depth Of the blowing and
the mechanical condition. of the soil.
Where the land has been well plowed
ard pulverized and considerable hunus
in evidence a good rule to follow is to
apply not less than one hundred
pounds per acre for every inch OF
depth In blowing. For instance. a six
inch depth would require six hundred
pounds, and ten-inch depth one
thousand pounds.

low do very good work, but take
longer. Wherever possible, we want to
run the rows north and south. This
being a tropical crop, 1t wants all the
sunshine possible. And If we run the
rows north and south and give six
foot space between, we are helping
tC promote a larger percentage of
sucrose in the sap than if we plant
close and so exclude the sunshine.
One of the weakest points is that
the cultivation of the crop is not con-
tinued long enough. The general prac-
tice of giving so many civilizations AMI
then laying by is not conducive Of a
large yield. The general impression
that cultivation OF a crop is only for
the purpose Of destroying grass and
weeds is responsible to a large extent
for the low yields of all OF our crops.
Cultivation should he conducted with
the triple purpose in view of the su =
lection of weeds and grass. the aera
ton of the soil, and the keeping of a
dust mulch on the land to prevent
evaporation OF moisture. The cane Is
a long-season crop, and the cultivation
is generally abandoned at the ve~y
time II should be continued. We want
to keep the growing roots supplied
with oxygen, and can do this best by
BIHrlnB the surface SOIL at IoaSL once
week up to the time cold weather
sets in and retards growth. Where
the rows are six feet apart, the Guilt
walton can be kept up until harvesting
time. The adjustable weeder does
good work at this time and failing
that & piece of board the desired
width can be bolted on to a scooter
stock and run between the rows and
gives a good account Of itself, as IL
stirs the surface soil which is really
all that is necessary. The decaying
leaves which cover the ground late in
the season are swept to one side by
tie board, leaving the middles with
the necessary dust mulch.
Fertilizers.
Carelessness in not studying the
proper kind of fertilizer for this CROP
is another weak point in. its production
and is largely responsible for low
yields and inferior quality Of syrup
