To Exhibit Photos Of
Crooks Of Country

Washington, D. c., Dec. go
Miniature rogue galleries in no.
tel lobbies, railroad and steam
boat stations and other places
wlere the Inauguration crowds
will be heaviest, are the latest
innovations to be proposed by Ma
ior R. Sylvester, chief of the
Washington police, as a means
of protecting Inauguration visi-
tors against thieves and conf
dence men next March.
Major Sylvester proposes to Sc
cure a gallery of about 500 pic
lures of pickpockets and other
criminals recently arrested in
different sections of the country.
These photographs will be repro
duced so that complete galleries
may be maintained at many diff
ferent points where the public
can study the features of ques'
tionable persons, who may be
mingling in the big crowds that
gather for President Wilson's
induction into Office.

Leg Was Broken
In Motorcycle Accident

Mr.. W. B. Roper, a member OF
the auditing department of the
John D. Walker banks, of Sparta.
Ca, suffered the misfortune of
receiving a broken leg Saturday
while riding with Mr.. Tom Will
cox on his motorcycle. The two
were enroute to Osierfield and the
accident occurred about three
miles from town. Mr.. Roper be-
came frightened when the ma
chine came near colliding with
wagon driven by negro who
wanted more than his share of
the road. and he threw out one
foot, which became entangled in
t ne spokes of the back wheel, and
both riders were pitched over in
the ditch with the motorcycle on
top of them. Mr.. Wilcox receiv-
ed no broken bones, but was bad
ly bruised. Mr.. Roper's leg was
frightfully lacerated. They were
unable to extricate them
selves from the wre tx e d
machine and were compelled to
lie in the ditch some fifteen or
twenty minutes until some one
passed, as the negro, who caused
the accident, left the scene as
fast as his mule could take him.
They were picked up by Chief
Wilkerson and brought to the
city and Mr.. Roper's broken
limb dressed. Heis now resting
easy at the hotel.

ter is serious one in many localities
Large amounts of corn slower will nc
doubt be utilized. A large amount OF
roughage will also be produced by the
use of catch crops. A year of scant
forage like the present makes the
growing of these crops of unusual i'm.
portance. There are several that are
we'll adapted to Missouri.
A catch crop that is one of the
most easily grown is rape. 1t may be
drilled or broadcasted (preferably
drilled) any time from May to August.
A common method of preparing stub
blefields for this crop is simply to disk
thoroughly and-soM-R Rape makes
rank, succulent growth and is we'll
adapted to pasturage for sheep and
cattle. It is not generally favored by
dairymen, but has been used to good
advantage in some instances with this
class of stock. 1t furnishes excellent
grazing for hogs. 1t is very sensitive
to frost and must be used before cold
weather.
Millet will grow and produce a good
crop Of forage when sown as late as
the latter part of July, providing there
is sufficient moisture in the ground
The Hungarian millet produces bet
ter quality of hay and less seed than
the German, and should be used when
sowing for hay. Millet does not make
the best of hay for any class of live
stock, but when properly harvested 1t
may be used as a part of the ration
for cattle and horses with good re-
suits.
Buckwheat is not usually grown for
forage, but is often used as a catch
crop. If the straw is we'll cared for 1t
may be fed to stock with some degree

SAVING THE MOISTURE
THOROUGH, SHALLOW cULTlvA.
TON FORMS A MULCH THAT
PROTECTS coRNFiELD.
BY c. e. Brashear Of the College Of
Agriculture, University Of
Missouri.

In many sections of Missouri there
is sufficient moisture in the soil to
mature the corn crop II the soil be
properly handled. The efficiency of
dry-farming methods was nicely dem.
onstrated in 1911. The drought of
that year was nearly the equal Of
that of 1901, yet the yield Of corn in
Missouri was vastly different. In 1901
the yield per acre was nine bushels,
while in 1911 it was Is bushels.
In these figures there is a lesson
for the man who is trying to grow
corn in dry season. In 1911 the
dust mulch was maintained over the
corn fields better than It ever was in
any other year. Frequent and shall.
low cultivation was the rule. It was
recommended by the college Of agri.
culture and by the state board Of agri.
culture. A stream Of literature from
these institutions encouraged the
farmers in practicing cultural meth.
DDS that had been found experimental.
ly best adapted to dry conditions.
The value Of the dust mulch is cas-.
lily understood. It acts In the same
way a blanket would II spread over
the soil. A corn plant uses approx.

pound Of dry matter It stores in its

moist, cool soil and should not be

1t grows very rapidly and is troubled

to produce fair crop on thin soil. It

pecks to the acre. When conditions
are favorable yield of 40 bushels to
the acre may be expected.
Corn and sorghum are sometimes
sown later and cut with a mower be.
fore they mature for hay. They are
either drilled or sown broadcast. After
sorghum is cut the first time a second
crop often springs up and two cut
tings may be realized. Sudden death
of stock has often been reported from
feeding second-growth and frosted
sorghum. This is believed to be due
to the presence of prussic acid in the
stalks. For this reason the second
growth Is often ploWed under while

When used either for pasture or

at the rate Of about bushel to the

Blocking Street Car Steps.

In The Star today is printed COM
munication from q street car rider who
protests against the failure Of conductors
and motormen on those local lines on
which the old type cars-not of the pay
as-you-enter. or pay-within. or side-door
type-are still operated to keep the plat
forms and steps sufficiently clear to
permit safe entrance and exit. The point
is well raised and should be taken into
consideration Immediately by the rail-
way authorities for the thorough en-
forcement Of the rules which prohibit
the blocking Of the outer passages Of
the cars. Passengers are positively pro-
hfbited to stand on the steps. and yet,
in most cases with plenty of room
within the car. the steps are thus occu-
pied without any effort on the part of
conductors or motormen to prevent 1t
behooves the operating companies to keep
their own employees up to a high mark
Of performance in the operation of these
old style cars. ~
