Mrs. Tyler to give the ladies of the

Lloyd and the Rev. Mr.. Rollit.
Last evening at Gethsemane ca

The Rev. Charles Rollit spoke first,
explaining the relation Of the travel

corn fertilizer 10 inches apart in
rows.
Before the corn came up it was
cross s-harrowed twice with spike
tooth harrow. After the corn came
up, it was cultivated with small
shovel cultivator, followed by har-
row tooth cultivator every five or
six days, and as the drouth became
very severe in June and the first
two weeks in July, a board about
Is inches in width was wired to the
rear teeth of the harrow-tooth cul-
| tivator and as the forward teeth
would loosen the soil, the board fol-
| lowing after would mulch it, and
make dust blanket to conserve the
moisture. 1t was intended to fol-
low this up at least once week
until the corn was fully cared, il
dry weather continued But in July
heavy storm came and blew much
of it down and tangled it up SO that
lit never could be worked any more,
and a severe after drouth in August,
when the corn was shooting and
maturing, shortened the crop ma
terially.
The tangled condition precluded
the possibility of stirring it to
break up the capillary tubes in the
soil and thus conserve the moisture.
And for five weeks, when it most
needed rain and also stirring, it did
not get either. And the wonder to
me, is that it made anything at all.
But 1872 bushels of good corn was
harvested from the acre and my
brother Cornell's acre adjoining it
produced 1921 bushels at the same
time. 1t is believed that under
proper moisture and working con-
ditions, each of these acres would
have yielded more than 200 bushels
of corn, Respectfully,
