ANSWERS GRIM SUMMONS,
Gordon Harmon Passes to the
Great BeVond.


The silent messenger OF death has
again called, taking away a beloved
son in the flower of his manhood,
and many a home in Holly is sad
dened in consequence.
Gordon Harmon, son of the
pioneer citizens, Mr.. and Mrs. Tho
mas Harmon, breathed his last at
Prescott, Arizona. on May IL, 1913
aged 26 years, after lingering i'll
ness of nearly four months.
On the day previous deceased
was in the best of spirits and his
recovery was thought to be fore
gone conclusion, but relapse set
in and Death claimed him as its
own.
To the sorrowing parents and
friends of Gordon Harmon, who are
inconsolable over their misfortune
the sympathy born of grief is exten-
ded in this their darkest hour, who
believe that our loss is His gain.

TREATMENT FOR HARD SOILS
Where Land Is Difficult to Work II
Should Receive Careful Attention
One Good Method

Often the different kinds of soils are
found on the same farm and the best
results cannot be obtained, as far as
crop returns are concerned, by a
uniform method of cultivation and
irrigation. The soil that is hard and
difficult to work should receive most
careful attention, not only from the
standpoint of cultivation, but also in
the method of irrigation.
1t is not always profitable to at
tempt a perennial crop on soil that
is hard to work and irrigate-the
yield is usually low, due to the re-
slstance to root development and
scarcity OF plant food;> also to the
shallow depth of the irrigation which
In turn causes the root system to de-
velop near the surface and make the
crop susceptible to drought.
Deep plowing, with liberal appli-
cation of manure or straw, will be
found beneficial The decay of the
organic matter will leave the soil
more or less porous and allow the
moisture access to the lower soil:
root development will be more COM
plete and the crop will stand drought
better.
The cultivation of sugar beets on
hard soil will, if properly handled,
bring the field eventually into proper
t1lth. Furrow irrigation will not al
low the soil to bake; deep cultivation
OF the crop will be found beneficial;
the tap root of the beet will have a
tendency to open up the sell below
the plow sole; the decayea tap root
after harvest will leave the lower
SOIL more or less porous, and hence
increase the capaciX of the soil for
the storage of moisture.
