L arrested dt cape OudIies, tlIRlQld.
Parker brought his man up to Philadel-
phia on a sleeper. but the officer did not
get much time to close his eyes. Volmer
was indicated by the present grand jury
on the charge of stealing money and a
gold watch from a boat at Hainesport.
The property was valued at $3.50. Par
ker says the police force at Cape Charles
consists of one officer who is chief and
acting policeman. The officer has quite
q record in making arrests and his
method is somewhat different from that
employed up this way. If the fellow
be is after does not come to terms the
policeman uses his revolver with telling
effect.
When it was decided that the Bass
River bridge at New Gretha must be re
: built, there was some objection on the
! part of those who thought a road suitable
: for travel should take the place of the
> main road to Tuckerton before the OLD
: bridge was removed. After consultation
with those interested it was agreed
: as everybody thought, that the new
e bridge should be started and that a roaC
d which was laid out would be perfectly
l satisfactory. There was considerable
surprise, therefore, when Solicitor Budt
nj. Rigg and Road Supervisor Macfar
y land were summoned to Trenton, to an
1t swer the court of chancery in a petition
ID on a rule to show cause why the Boar
of FreehOlders should not be held in con
y tempt. The basis for this action was a.
he idea that the detour road was not bein
If kept in good shape for travel, but tn
IN evidence was to the effect that the assel
lions were not well sustained as al
ie tomobilists were able to make the tri
rs from New Gretna to Tuckerton in 8
quick time as was maintained before til
~ road was used. The case was laid ov,
:. for q week and Supervisor Mcfarland
giving the road his careful attention

When this idea is carried the town
will have two steam engines. four or five
hose carts, two chemical engines and a
host of good men to fight the fires.
Union company is considering convert
ing its chemical engine into an auto

fire wouldseem to have a poor chance in

Chief Sapp, who is a member of that
company, goes out of office, that he may
share in the glory of the new innovation.
When the grand jury visited the Jail
after finishing the work of considering
complaints the members were surprised
to find an aged man who had been com
mitted by Justice of the Peace Hancock,
of North Hanover township, on com
plant of Mrs. Lynch, of Lakewood, a
lady who takes much interest in the af.
fairs of the Society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals. This was a case
where a fine must be inflicted and cost.
must also be attached. 1t was reported
to Mrs. Lynch that the man was unabl,
to pay a fine and she at C took step
to have that remitted. The attention O
the committee on hberating prisoner
was called to the case, but they had n
power to let the nan go out unless b
paid the costs. Justice Hancock refuse
to give in to that proposition so the mar
William Dennis. was compelled to n
main in Jail. When the grand jur
heard of the circumstances they saw tn.
it was perfectly clear that Dennis coul
not do anything while in Jail whereof
he could raise the amount of costs Il
Justice was SO determined to get hold {
so the members took up a collectic
sufficient to pay the costs and to get Il
old man some clothing. The membe
of the grand jury were quite indignal
over this case and if there had been an
way to reach the Justice for the mann
in which he hung out for "the pound
fesh,v he might have Jared poorly.

that the present membership would

DEMONSTRATORS PERKINS GIVES
TIMELY ADVICE ON SUBSOIING.

Farm Demonstrators Ernest L. Per.
! kins, furnishes the Democrat with the
following advice to farmers on sub
soilinG:
In all cases where farmers lntene
b eaking deeper than they have rok
en- before we advise b a 1t be done IN
the fall. However, last fail Was y
that permitted of but very little 6reaF;
:ne before Christmas. ] am herewith
submitting a few suggestions. to q
who expect to pillow deeper this spring
than they have before.
What IA Deep Flowing!
z 4 s and 6 inches is just common
allowing. Nothing less than eignt
inches is considered deep ploWtng ny
the most successful farmers OF q
south. -
Perhaps the best way for breaking
daener than common is done with the
disk nlow. Another way that Is cali
cd donbIe plowing of ~subsoiling is very
satisfactory ON the average farm IN
western North Caorlina. IL is done
nv using a common turning pioW d
about the same depth that the land mas
been plowed before, and followed WIFE
q straight bit or regular
subsoiling in the spring OF the year
Ga rather a delicate proposition. II
ean be done early enough that d
ground will have time to settle back
together before planting. it is very
rood but If the soil should not have
time to settle, there is liability or tne
crop suffering from drought for the
fact that capillary action Is broken
Concretely stated, a deep, thoroughly
n~ulverized seed bed filled with humus
has the following advantages:
III It provides more food, because
81 chemical action and mul
tiplies bacterial life in larger body
of soil.
f2l 1t stores more moisture and
loses its moisture less rapidly on &C
count of its cooler lower strata and
the presence Of more humus.
ES1 It increases the number and
length of roots that the plant will
throw out.
4) 1t allows plants to root deeper
and find permanent moisture.
(5)- It-Iargely obviates the necessity
OF terracing, because it holds so much
water in suspension that heavy rain
falls will 20 to the bottom and be held
by the drier earth above until they
be absorbed by the subsoil.
f6l Humus enables the soil to store
more moisture, increases the temper
ature. makes it more porus, furnishes
rlant food, stimulates chemical action.
and fosters bacterial life.
Tt is alright to subsofl as late as
freezing continues.
Exceptions to general rules for deep
blowing:
III Never pillow below the line Of
standing water in the soil. because the
isubsoil can not be Dulverized in water
The water level must first be lowered
By drainage.
t2l Do no deep blowing on ligh:
land. Such lands can be helped by
adding humus in the way of cover
crons. etc
t3) Do not pillow deeply on subsoil
n the late spring. The subsoi1 is gem
orally too full of water and it is too
late for the air and freezing to have
much effect. as to crnmbling and set
tling back together.
