for Richmond ingenuity to solve the
problem. which has been accomplished

f. G. Goodall, former citizen of
Ohio county, who now resides in Gin
cinnati, Ohio, has filed a $25, 0O0 dam
age suit in the United States court in
Owensboro against twenty-five well
known business men and farmers of
Ohio county for outrages alleged to
have been committed while he lived
in that county and was holding the
office of constable. Goodall claims
that on May %, 1915, while he was
acting as constable of Ohio county,
the defendants formed a criminal con-
Spiracy and unlawfully put himself
and a number of others in fear of
personal injury by forcing them to go
in the night time to an old barn in a
remote section of the county, off and
away from the public road. He
claims that the defendants assaulted
him, threatened him and by reason of
the threats and acts compelled him to
abandon his home, to arm himself and
be under guard of friends to prevent
further injury at the hands of the al
legged possum hunters. Goodall says
that he was compelled to abandon his
business, to surrender his office and
flee from the country for safety.

CHOOSE VARIETY
CELERY CROP
Rich Ground and Abundance
Of Mixture Necessary To
Nourish Plants.

In the growing Of celery the selec-
ton of good varieties comes first.
The seed should be sown in boxes
land the plants transplanted. For ear
ly celery the plants should be set in
the field the middle of June, and for
late they should be planted in July.
Celery requires very rich ground
and an abundance Of moisture. Well
rotted manure applied in good quanti-
ty and thoroughly mixed with the
soil is the best fertilizer that can be
used. When setting in the field the
leaves should be pruned back and try
not 10 remove the dirt from the roots.
Water the plants well when first set
and it is good practice to cover them
for day or so until they have recov-
cred from the shock of transplanting.
The plants should be set in trench
two or three inches deep and placed
six inches apart in the row.
Frequent cultivation should be
maintained during the growing sea-
son, and in case it is dry the celery
should be watered. Apply the water
in the evening so that it will have a
chance to soak into the soil. Celery,
in order to be good, must be kept
growing all the time. AS soon as
growth stops the plants begin to get
tough.
The blanching is one of the import
ant operations in order to have the
stalks brittle. After the plants are
full grown the punches should be tied
and then banked with dirt until the !
tops are all that is left uncovered. |
This is all that will be necessary until |
freezing weather comes, then some |
straw or fodder can be placed over
the tops and little dirt placed on
the top this, just enough to keep the |
plants from freezing. 1t will be found |
better to leave celery out in the |
ground over winter than try to store |
it in the cellar.
