PROF. j. G. LEE ADvIRES
PLANTING MORE CORN
Continued from page one.)

The proper depth for planting, IN this
section particularly, is from inches.
Ifit is planted any deeper than this,
there is danger of the grain rotting
before termination takes place. The
corn plant is a f1brouS rooted plant and
these roots develop Immediately unaer
the surface of the soil. If the seed is
planted deeper than 2 inches the plant
will develop its root system, not at the
point where termination takes place,
but immediately under the surface -.
There Seens to be some doubt or
confusion existing among some OF
our most progressive farmers as to
whether corn should be planted on
beds, fiat or in water burrows. Where
the land is well drained or rolling, the
writer has secured best results by
planting on the level. Where drainage
is not so good, as on land that is fiat
and drained by numerous open bitches
planting should be done on slight
ridge which has an elevation OF two or
three inches above the water furroW.
1t is the writer's firm conviction that
planting should never be done on a
a high bed. If the land is too wet for
planting on a ridge or on the level,
drainage is the first consideration and
a good crop of corn cannot be made on
such land.
The principal objection to planting
on high bed is that in dry weather
the roots of the corn are left high and
dry and the evaporation of moisture
is much greater due to the increased
surface exposure. Again, the crop is
harder to work and necessitates the
use of big turning plows, which are a
detriment to the crop, in order to throw
dirt to the plants.

CULTIVATE SHALLOW
AND OFTEN.

The method pursued in the cultiva.
ton of corn by most of our farmers
serves greatly to curtail the yield per
acre. Just as the young plants begin
to come through the surface of the soil
the soil should be broken with an iron
tooth harrow by running up and down
each row of plants. This serves to
break the crust and form fine mulch
and destroys all weeds and grass which
have begun to grow. Cultivation
should BIZ done every seven or ten days
and very shallow not mere than 1.2
or inches deep, As previously stated
the little feeding roots develop i'm.
mediateiy under the surface OF the soil
and cultivation any deeper than men.
toned will destroy great many of
these little feeders, thereby limiting
the food supply of the plant to that
extent. Of course, it often happens
that wet spell comes on and the grass
grows fast and it is great temptation
for most of us to 90 in with big turn.

however, this blowing which destroys a

The kind of fertilizer to be used de.
ponds altogether on the richness Of the
soil and the previous crops grown, etc.
There are three essential kinds of plant
flood, namely: Nitrogen, phosphorus
and potassium. The primary function
of nitrogen is to produce color and
firmness to both plant and fruit, there
fore if the plants grow OFF rapidly and
reach the yield Of grain. If a large
amount Of vegetable matter, such as
cowpeas, stable manure, etc., is plowed
under, the nitrogen supply will gener'
ally be sufficient and the only fertilizers
that will have to be supplied are phos'
phorus and potassium.
PHOSPHORUS USUALLY

PHOSPHORUS USUALLY
LACKING.

However, our soils are conceded TO
contain enough potassium for the need
of our corn crop, but is generally lack.
ing in phosphorus. From 100 to 300
lbs of acid phosphate should be applied,
before planting, per acre for a good
yield Of grain. Every farmer should
experiment for himself in order to find
out what kind of fertilizer his land
needs. 1t is impossible to tell what
kind of fertilizer to apply unless the
soil Is consulted by experimenting.
The foregoing outline of seed selec.
ton, preparation of the method of
planting, cultivation, etc., has been
followed by the writer since 1909 The
average yield of corn at that time was
20 bu per acre. BY blowing under the
cow peas, stable manure, ETC., the yield
per acre, has been increased from an
average of 20 bushels then to IS IL

After two years or more Tn .the Courts the Cloth missing page will has been upheld by the Supreme Court ofTennessee.
 Mrs. Cloth was a rich old woman living in Memphis. She had accumulated nearly Q million dollars and lived in a mlserly way but as her will indicates de- sired and had a liking for better things than her boarded gold. In her will she remembered MT. and Mrs. A. K. Cameron and the Presbyterian Church in Brinkley.
 She owned at her death sever al small tenant houses and 8 business lot in Brinkley which she inherited from her brother, George Prick, at his death in this city some Is years ago. These are a part of her estate which is not disposed of in her will.
 The Clarendon will which at- tracted world wide interest was reported to have been written by Fl. 4. Parker. It-was found in an old house 10 miles from Clar- endon. It's chieT beneficiaries were Bruce Garrett of Claren- don and NJ. 5. Buckingham of Memphis. The charge was openly made that this was a forgery and 1t was intimated that Geo. F. Chaplin then an attorney in the case was con- nected herewith.
 One of the strangest things of tfis great case has been the fahlity among the lawyers con- nectel with the issue of breaking down of the missing-page will.
 Attorney Frank Zimmeman, 8 prominent Attorney of Memphis died while he was fighting the will, Judge Swerny, another Memphis Attorney that was in the fight died while 1t was on, Percy Finley, another as prominent Memphis Lawyer in the fight, also died. II. 4. Parker. the Clarendon lawyer who drew the Clarendon will died during the heat of the fight. Geo F. Chapline, anoth CT Clarendon Lawyer. who was a attorney for the Clarendon con testant died in the midst of the fight. This exceptional fatality among the attorneys, has been the cause of much comment.
 NO DECISION AS TO FORGERY
 The Clarendon will is knocked cut by the supreme courts de- cission, without reference [ 0 whether 1t was or was not a forgery the supreme court did not have the matter before it- for the simple reason that the missing-page will bears date of Aug. I, 1900. and revokes all prior wills. The Clarendon will was dated July 19, 1898.

Their only chances is in the possibility thai the contents of the missing l pages cannot be set up, in which case they will take as though Mrs. Cloth had died without a will to that portion of her estate.

In her bequest to Mrs. Rich it l is provided that if she and her daughter should be dead that l the property on Tate Street should be sold and the money lis to be given to the Second Presbyterian Protestant Hospital mentioned herein. !"
 It frequently occurs in the will that should certain beques ts be not carried out that they shall go to the Second Presby- terian Church.
