Five DAYS With Broken Neck,

Natchez.-James w. Smith, who
lived five days with a broken neck,
lost the uneve battle. Conscious up
to the moment of death, he advised
and directed nurses and hospital at

for almost a week since his fall of Is

duce a really good pasture. In fact
such a one requires as good soil, as
much work in its preparation and as
farm. After the ground has been
plowed or disked and the seed sown
no grazing should be allowed until the
young plants become SO firmly rooted
that they will not be pulled out by
the grazing animals. When seeding
is done in the fall the field should not
be grazed until the growth is well
started, and no permanent pasture
should ever be grazed SO heavily as
to injure the stand.
After the pasture has been made,
there are two weeds which sometimes
make trouble, the bitterweed and the
garlic or wild onion. The presence of
bitterweed Is an indication that the
pasture has been grazed too closely
or has been trampled so heavily that
the surface soil is too hard and COM
pact for grasses and clovers to grow.
The weed is seldom troublesome on q
30 on a poor soil which is not too
closely grazed. The use of fertilizers
or decreasing the number of grazing
animals will aid in eradicating 1t.
The destruction of the wild onion is
q more difficult matter. 1t can be
killed by q deep blowing OF the ground
in September or October, followed by
q very shallow blowing in the spring
and then planting the field with some

as pasture for about eighteen
months. When a pasture is not infest-
ed it should be watched closely and

pearance removed at once.
The permanent pasture should be

winter use the small grains and
vetches will do for horses and cattle,
artichokes, chufas, sweet potatoes and
cassava for hogs. From December to
April oats or wheat and vetch make
the best grazing for dairy cows. Horses
and mules do not care SO much for the
vetch but they will eat the grain until
