to be cultivated at the rate of 25O to
500 pounds per acre. The spreading Is
best done on cloudy day, as bright
sunshine is destructive to the bacteria.
If spread in sunshiny weather, imme-
date narrowing is important. Care
should always be taken to secure soil
free from troublesome weeds or dis
eases.
On account of the expense involved
it is seldom advisable to get large
quantities of soil from a distance. 1t
is better to SOW but small patch the
first year, which, if successful, will
supply abundant soil to use as inocu-
lGtion for more extensive paintings.

CRIME DECREASES
UNDER CHIEF MAYO

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 27.-An exam
ination of the police records since the
dismissal of Chief James L. Beavers
shows that during the period following
the election of Chief Mayo there has
been a material decrease in burglaries,
robberies and similar crimes in At
lanta.
The improvement, it is said, should
not be taken as reflection upon the
sincerity and earnestness of the Beav-
ers administration, but rather as an
evidence of the point made at the time,
that while the reform chief was doing
the best he could, he was failure as
an executive head and the police de-
partment was failing through lack of
organization and efficiency methods.
Under the administration of Chief
Mayo there have been few changes in
the personnel of the force, but it is bet
ter organized, and there is spirit of
cooperation among the men and off,
GERS and between the police proper
and the detective department, which
has not heretofore existed in several
years. The result is that the public is
getting better protection for the sim
pie reason that the city is better pa
trolled
