Some one familiar with the combina-
ton of the safe in the office Of Samuel
D De Vaughan & Son, a09 North Royal
Street, entered the once last night and
stole S6l.70 therefrom. A report Of the
robbery was made to the police to-day
and they are investigating. An entrance
was effected by breaking a glass in the
rear Of the shop and the thieves then
slipped in their hands and unlocked the
back door. That the robbery was COM
mitted by some one familiar with the
combination Of the safe there seems to
be but little doubt.

LINK IN FARMS
OF THIS STATE
Explanation Of How to Remedy
This and Cause Soil to Hold
Enough Water Discussed
(By A. P. Schroeder Of Grand Chainl

(By A. P. Schroeder Of Grand Chainl
The problem of the Southern Iii
nois farmer. in so far as the soil is
concerned, is treated in a scientific
and most thorough manner by A. P.
Schroeder of Grand Chain The ar
ticle is published in the Prairie
Farmer and is of especial interest to
the residents OF the neighborhood
about Cairo and is reproduced here.
The condition of the hill land in
the seven southernmCst counties Of
Illinois, called the unglaciated area,
is very similar to that of most hill
land in the state and bearing in
mind the exploitation called farm
ing, the soil has been subject to all
over the state, il possibly applies
more on less to level land also.
Each soil era, however together
with its climate, would seem a world
Within itself, having its own prob
lens to solve We all know ii takes
rich soil or land in a high state of
cultivation to raise crops, and this
means land rich in common plant
foods and in good filth
The Value of Good Tilth
1t is not enough that the land l.
well supplied with plant food The
condition Of the soil must also be
good It is supposed to take 800
pounds OF water to grow one pound
OF dry vegetable matter. or about 90
tons to grow one bushel Of wheat,
As plants can only take their food in
solution, that is, dissolved in water,
moisture must always be present as a
conveyance Of the food, Again, air

Of land about : inches deep, as
against 30 or 60 tons for the cora
belt. TO get our land in good tilih
we may have to increase the vege-
table matter to. say 40 tons. and OF
course this can only be done by plow-
ing under some kind of vegetation.
Increasing the Vegetable Matter
we are told that the growth OF a
crop destroys one-fourth it's weight
of the vegetable matter present Il,
the land, and consequently every
total removal of crop leaves the
land in worse and worse physical
condition. Take for instance q ~
bushel crop of wheat, sell the grain
and waste the straw.
Weight of straw estimated 1000 lbs
Weight OF grain. .....,.. 1900 lbs
1920 lbs
This causes a loss of 500 pounds OF
vegetable mater from the land. Or
