ANNOUNCEMENT COMES
WITH MUCH SURPRISE
Able Circuit Court Jurist win Rs-
Enter Law Practice After
January LIST. =.
Retirement From Office Occasieus
Regret-Succeeded the Late
Judge Melvin.

or more than passing interest d
the citizens OF Ohio county and ths
legal profession In general 10 the an
nouncement made by Judge Frank w.
Nesbitt yesterday that he will retire
from the bench Of the circuit court at
the expiration OF his term OF offics.
ending on January LIST, 1913.
When a number OF lawyers were
apprfsed OF Judge Nesbitt's intentions
yesterday much surprise and sincere
regret were expressed. a. the char
acter OF the man 10 such as to elicit
general approval of the excellent
qualifications that enabled him to hold
this dignified and important Office.
Moreover. as a native product, and,
to many. plain Frank Nesbitt. he was
accorded the honor justly befitting his
position.
Appreciates High Honor.
To a representative OF the Intelli-
gencer. Judge Nesbitt stated yester-
day that he had come to the conclu-
sion, after mature consideration, that
he preferred to re-enter the law prac-
tice. and that In doing so he would
give way to other attorneys who were
amply fitted for the office. He stated
that he thoroughly appreciated the
high honor that had been bestowed
upon him In the appointment. In which
he succeeded the late Judge Thayer
Melvin in 1905.
Judge Nesbitt is one OF the youngest
turists in the state. At the expiration
OF his appointive term he was renom.
mated by the Republicans of this coun.
ty, together with Judge Henry G. Her.
vey. and naturally. was elected by q
large majority over his Democratic
opponent. He had made a good record
as lawyer, and his record as juris,
Is equally commerdable.
In the retirement OF Judge Nesbitt,
a field is opened to a number OF can.
didates for the Office at the November
election. and II is probable that with.
In a short time announcements will
be made. Ohio county lacks no legal
timber. and II 10 hoped thSt the choice
OF the people viii be such as to nest
with the approval OF the legal pro.
fession generally.
As ~ known. Judge Nesoitt was one
OF the faculty OF Linsly institute for
some time. He is considered one OF
the most polished orators In this part
OF the country, and his services have
been anxiously sought on social occa-
sions as we'll as In his legal pro-
fession.

GREAT ADVANTAGE
IN ANY ROTATION
Barnyard Manure Applied to Crop

turns.

A great advantage In rotation IL
that barnyard manure applied to the
crop that will give the largest returns
for the application. rather than to the
field most in need Of manure. ire
spective OF the crop grown. 1t has
been demonstrated often enough that
manure applied to root and corn crops
will be effective not only for the fol
lowing grain and hay crops. but more
of its fertilizing elements are used IN
profitable production than II applied
directly to the grain crops.
OF course. II Is not the best policy TO
stick to one rotation for too long
period. On most OF our farms short
rotation at first might very proftahIy
be followed by a longer one, as the
fertility OF the field Is increased.
AS a sample the following common
four-year rotation may be cited;
First Year-Hoed crops; Roots
corn, potatoes; balance of the
quarter section in peas or rape. Ma
nure applied to this section.
Second Year-Grain.
Third Year-Hay (clover).
Fourth Year-Hay and pasture.
A study of this rotation will she"
that IL is in accord with the principl'
of rotation First hoed crops, fairy
