Preparation Of Land. The depth
OF blowing depends on the charac-
ter Of the soil, the amount OF vege-
table matter present and the depth
Of former plowings. II is not wise
TO plow more than two inches deep
er than the former plowings at any
one time. For grasses and clovers
this deep blowing should always be
done far enough ahead OF seeding
time 80 the ground will become well
settled. These crops, like wheat,
grow OF best and stand the winter
better on firm seed bed that is
fine and moist the first or 4 inch

cowpeas or rape, or that Is sum
mer fallowed is in excellent shape
for grasses and clovers without re-
blowing. II the land has been
plowed deep in the spring and IS

cient 10 prepare the best fall seed
bed. II breaking has TO be done
in the summer after harvesting OF
oats OF wheat, a shovel pillow may
be preferable to the turning pillow,
hut is slow work. Thorough sur
face cultivation every week or ten
days during June and July, IL there
is plenty OF rain TO terminate weed
seeds, will sufficiently clean most
lands for grasses and clovers. The
reason for recommending such a
heavy seeding OF cowpeas in the
First Method is TO promptly choke
out any grass or weeds that start

into the ground a vegetable mulch
is made which is decidedly helpful
To the successful establishment OF
grasses on all soils, especially the
thinner ones.
Use Of Lime. n in doubt as to
the need Of lime. apply 1000 pounds
Of burnt lime or double that amount
Of ground limestone. crushed shells,

there are beds Of mari which can

purpose Lining should be done sew

inches Of the soil as soon as ap-
piled rather than plowed under.
Commercial fertilizers or barnyard
manure should not be applied with,
or at the same time as lime, but
few days or week later.
Commercial Fertilizers. The
kind and quantity Of commercial
fertilizers 10 use depends up on var

Of other Southern States. Potash
in any form is beneficial TO most
light clay or sandy soils in these
states. In some instances IL is well
TO apply as much as 100 pounds OF
muriate OF potash per acre. n ma
nure is not available or leguminous
crops, as cowpcas, crimson clover,
etc, are not grown as previous
crops, use some heterogeneous ferti-
lizer, as dried blood, tankage, fish
scraps or cotton seed meal. Apply
these fertilizers Immediately before
seeding or as directed under the
method TO be followed, and always
disc them well into the top soil.
Apply nitrate Of soda in the spring
or early summer. A small amount
Il seeding time starts the crop of
uuChly.
Barnyard Manure. II the manure
is full Of weed seeds, has coarse
litter or is fresh, spread il early
enough before seeding so the seeds
and litter will have time TO decay.
Spreading in the spring with sum
mer following will accomplish this.
II the manure is clean and fine,
spread il any time before seeding.
However, a few weeks before that
time is best so the plant food in il
will become more available for the
young plants. Spread broadcast at
the rate Of 8 TO 10 tons per acre.

SMITHS ABILITY QUESTIONED.
His Opponent, Pelkey, Several Times
Stood Of by Third Raters.

The fact that Gunboat Smith took
10 rounds TO stop Arthur Pelkey in
San Francisco on New Year day is
causing difference of opinion as to
Smith 5 real fighting ability Pelkey s
record shows that among those who
stayed ten rounds with him are JEFF
Madden, Soldier kearns. Sailor White,
Andy Morris and Fred Mckay, all of
whom are third raters. Madden also
stood Peikev off for l. rounds a year
ago Madden is the alleged Boston
heavyweight who was slapped into sub
mission in less than two rounds by Joe
Jeanette in the Garden a year ago last
August, the spectators declaring that "a
fake had been perpetrated. Fred Me
Kay and Sailor White are nothing
more than huge jokes, while Kearns
and Andy Morris have been punching
bags on numerous occasions Pelkey
stopped both kearns and Morris, by the
way, but that was nothing to boast of
Jess Willard made Pelkey look foolish

taken to mean that the death of Lu-
ther McCarty was the result of an ae-

CRANDALL TO PLAY
WITH BRATTLEBORO
Joined Islanders at Tag End of Last
Season and Made G0od-Pos-

team went into the discard last year.

be, member OF the Brattleboro team.
CrandaIl liked Brattleboro and he
played good bali here, too.
There is one thing about Crandall
that makes him mighty valuable man
to have on team, if he IS not the
greatest pitcher who ever twirled a ball.
He has a long baseball head, knows
the game from all angles, can pitch
good ball because of his mental abil-
itv ami judgment, can play first base
like IA veteran, and at second there
were none in the Twin State league
last wear who had tpything on him
on taking i throw and getting the
ball on the runner. incidentally he
Is not bad outfclder and is a dan
gerous man at bat.
Cnndall is not a ball player who
gets discouraged or quits. Two years
ago he managed and captained the
North Adams team and played first
base. preferably, but at times he was
forced to play about every position
The following year he had his chum
and business partner, Allie MacRob-
bic, manage the team and he pitched
his share of the games and filled in
somewhere about every other game.
Last year when he came here at the
tag end of the season it was to Join
:; team that was on the bottom rung
of the league ladder and had hardly a
chance in the season of getting higher
He pitched winning games against

While Schultz would not venture an
opinion as to the outcome OF the Grim
