was defending Mary Page from the
charge of murder and who in his bat

his own happiness, came In.
At sight of him Mary rose to her feet
with a little childEke sob Of relief and
stretched out one slim hand with
Quivering smile that was more poignant

1.-THE boy-what boy?" The question
leapt sharply now.
"Why, the bellboy who brought the
message" she said in surprise, and,
turning, pointed toward the group of
witnesses where the small bellhop
covered, half covering his face with
his shaking hands.

was upon him, and some Of the hostil-

FALL FLOWING
TIME IS HERE
Sods Should Be Turned Under
4 For Corn in the
Spring

The time is here for Fall pTowing
of sods for corn in the Spring, in the
central and southern part of the State
end in the northern part for plowing
corn stubble for oats. Various con-
siderations move farmers to Fall
plowing." says Franklin Menges, soil
expert of the State Department of
Agriculture. "One is that usually the
weather is favorable and the land in
splendid condition for plowing dur
ing the months of October and No
vember, and consequently larger
area can be plowed in short time.
Another is that clay soils will pro-
duce larger crop yields when the US
ually compacted sod, by over pastur-
ing. is broken up in the Fall SO that
the water from the SHOWS of the
winter and the rains of Spring can
more easily penetrate the soil and
carry to greater depth the moisture
and the nitrogen the snow usually
contains. In this way the fertility
is enhanced without any cost to the
farmer.
Still another reason for Fall plow-
ing sods on clay soils which have
not been pastured. and upon which
a second crop of the clovers and the
grasses have grown up, is that this
mass of organic matter, which has
taken up the fertility that has been
made available during the Fall
months. will remain comparatively
green and the agencies of decay. be-
cause of the presence of air, will as
soon as the warm weather of the
Spring comes, make available the
stored up fertility for the use of
other plants. To build the soil into
organic compounds in the plant tis-
sue. the furrow slice should be set
at an edge, before these clovers and
grasses have become completely dry
because of the action of frost and
winds of winter
Fall plowing of sods in the south
ern section of the State is a method
of storing moisture and fertility when
done in the right way. Weathering
of the mineral components of the soil
is another benefit derived from Fall
plowing when done as previously in
dicated, because alternate freezing
and thawing reaches larger soil area
and reduces a larger quantity of the
soil minerals to a more finely divid-
ed condition and which are, therefore,
more readily acted on by plant roots.
Sandy soils and sandy loans should
not be Fall plowed in any part of
this State, except where these soils
are covered with snow from December
to March"
