The verdict in the Circuit Court was
a conditional one, it being dependent
upon the decision of Judge Faulkner
on demurrer to the evidence filed

Faulkner sustained the demurrer
which in effect set aside the verdict
of the jury. An appeal was then
taken to the Supreme Court, the case
being argued last September when
the Court was in session in Charles

How To Grow Alfalfa.

alfalfa.--G. S. c., Randolph Co.
The field selected should be we'll
drained and the soil should have a
sufficient supply of organic matter to
make it mellow If organic matter is
lacking the field should be sowed
to rye in the fall and the crop turned
in the spring,
The ground should be plowed as
deep as possible early in the spring
and limed at the rate of one ton of
burnt lime or its equivalent per acre
Harrow the ground frequently, once
a week or ofterer if necessary, pre-
venting any growth of weeds, until
the middle of July, at which time the
seed should be sewn at the rate Of

rowed in lightly. A firm seed bed
with an inch Of loose sur

necessary sample of the seed in
tended for sowing should be sent to

lbs. of Acid Phosphate or 800 lbs OF
Bone Meal should be applied
just previous to sowing the seed.
For getting the proper inocculation.
take zoo to 400 IBIS. of soil from

the seed. If this can not be done,
