At this time the roots are not long
enough to be injured to any extent by
a deep cultivation, and those that are
injured will not materially effect the

as there is plenty of moisture In the
soil In the spring. On later paintings
these deep civilizations should not be
made, since moisture conditions might
be such that the plants would be in

of planting is 10 or IL inches high the

WELL, HERE'S A POET.

Hinze, Miss, Feb. 24.-Not far from
this postoffice resided young man
named T. F. Horne, who is a gifted
poet for one who had not much oppor-
tunity in the world. His home until
recently was near the scene of the hor-
rible tragedy in which pretty Miss
jamie Sharpe, country girl lost her
life four years ago. 1t is considered
by no means strange, that the impress
sion created in his poetical mind by
the details of the foul murder, led to
his first attempt at rhyme. This eff
fusion was entitled "a Murdered Girl"
and appeared in book form a month
after the murder. And strange as it
may seem, and as contrary to the gen
eral rule, the poem sold like "wildfire."
During the two trials of Permenter he
being charged with the foul crime and
for which a jury at Winona acquitted
him, Horne disposed of the entire
edition. This inspired him to continue
his literary PURSUITS with the hope that
they will be equally successful.
Born and reared in the backwoods
of Winston county, and possessed Of
the meager education required by the
light Of pine knots In his humble home.

CORN.
By E. R. Lloyd, Mississippi
Agricultural College.

On account of the scarcity and the
high price of corn, every farmer should
plant enough to supply his needs and
some to sell, since corn at rs cents a
bushel is a profitable crop. On soils
producing from 40 to so bushels per
acre we have been growing corn at
the station at an expense of rs cents
per bushel. Every operation in the
making of the crop from the rent on
the land to the putting of it into the
crib was charged to 1t just as If the
land had been rented land and all the
word hired done.
Preparation Of the SoIi-Better re.
suits are obtained when the land is
broken deeply in the fall or winter and
the seed bed made with a disc harrow
in the spring. Should 1t be necessary
to pillow the land again in the spring In
order to destroy grass or weeds the
blowing should be shallow. The seed
bed should be fat on all the well
drained Soils On poorly drained soils
1t is better to plant on ridges or beds,
except when the corn is planted late in
May or June, then fat preparation is
better.
Time to PIant-The last of March
and the first of April paintings will
give better yields than later paintings.
An average of our results here shows
that March planted corn yields about
one-third more than June planting.
However, on poorly drained soils 1t is
better to plant the crop in June.
Variety to Plant-The prolific varie-
ties, such as Cookies. Mosby and Has
tings are among the best yielders at
the Station. Tennessee Red Cob is
the best yielding one land variety we
have tested.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and thor
ough cultivation is very essential in
the making of a good crop. Weeds
and grass must be kept from coming
up and the soil must not be allowed
to become crusted, but the mulch
should be maintained. For early plant

lagos have changed hands many times.
Three German attacks of Przasnyssz
where the conflict was the sharpest,
are said to have been repulsed The
Germans, in their official statement,
admit that the Russians have succeed
ed in crossing the river Bobr in two
places. Another Berlin dispatch says
that further obstacles arose" to pre-
vent the invasion Of Russia. A Paris
correspondent estimates that the Ger
mans lost $4,000 men in the fighting

Severe Fighting in West.
Both the French and the German Of

there. The Germans say that much Of
the fighting was of the hand-to-hand
kind. Nothing Of importance is re-
ported In the other sections Of the
