Representative Oldfeld of AThan-

ing to excess profits taxes.
Mr. 0ldfeld said; 1t has been er.
roneously said that the new revenue
act exempts the salaries Of the Rep
resentatives and Senators from the

FALL BREAKING IS
IMPORTANT MATTER
Fall Flowing Adds To Plant
Food Supply For Next
Years Crop.

The cotton is about all out and
the corn is about all gathered, and
it is now time to begin preparation
for next years crop. There was
never a time when fall breaking
vas more important. Deep break
ing in the fall is the means Of get
ting all stalks, weeds and grass tur-
ned under to make additional plant
food for next years crop. 1t also
serves to break up the soil in small
particles, so it will hold plenty of
moisture for the following crop and
help to resist the drouth, if we have
a light rainfall during the growing
season. The rOtting stalks, weeds
and grass will supply vegetable mat
ter to the soil, and help the soil to
remain loose and hold water, and
also to supply some plant food.
When you fail to break your land
it stands bare through the winter
and water packs, and some of the
plant food teaches out. Frequent
Iyit damages by washing,
By all means break your land in
the fall and early winter. If you
plow your land eight inches deep in
the fall you will have that many
inches of seed bed in the spring and
summer to hold moisture, and you
will find that any time during the
year you can push stick down
just as deep as you plowed the fall
before.
Don't overlook breeding your
sows this month. Breed the gifts
too and raise all the pigs you can
next year. Hogs are high and meat
is scarce and this condition will not
change, no matter how many pigs
you raise.
Save your food stuff and feed. The
country needs it. Remember, we
are at war, and plenty of food and
feed will 60 a long ways toward win

the Food Administrator for this
State, is doing a great work. Heed
what he says; it is important. Do
not make cropping plans far in ad'
vance. Remember that labor is 60
ing to be scarce next year. Look
before you leap in planning your
crops

Duck shooting at an altitude Of a.
600 feet, on the Junin pampa. along
the shore Of the lake of that name. is
sport that can be followed in Peru.
Very peculiar effects are noted in this
rarefied region, probably the highest
altitude for this sport in the world.
The guns kick viciously, and the shot
does not scatter promptly, making long
SLOTS successful. This phenomenon Is
due to the lack of density Of the air,
which is only about eight pounds to
the square inch against fifteen at sea
level. Another interesting fact is that
the ducks have no tishy taste. as fish
do not exist in this altitude.

Mary Lapointe and Matilda Dutil
were before Judge Lancaster of the
municipal court Saturday morning on
complaint of Warren keenan, to an
swer to a charge of wanton or lasciv-
ious speech or behavior on March 30.
The two girls had their hearing sep
arately and were represented by For
mer Judge Benedict +. Maher while
the complainant was represented by
Melvin f. Sawtelle, and the plea i'll
each case was that of not guilty.
The testimony showed that Keenan,
and another young man were with the
two respondents on the night OF March
80 and that keenan, paid The bills for
himself. his friend and the two girls:
that keenan, made another appoint
ment with the Dutil girl Wednesday
at the Colonial theatre for the follow
ing Friday night, and went up that
night and called on her: that she
wanted to know where his friend was,
whereupon keenan, went out and got
another young man named Wilbur
Leighton: that keenan, lent Leighton
some money, and that the latter had
some talk with the Lapointe girl;
that Leighton wanted to make an APP
pointment with her and she said she
would let him know in minute: that
the arrangements were made where
they went on Mill street.
The testimony further showed that
Keenan, paid the Dutil girl SO but did
not get into the house; that in a short
time the Lapointe girl came out of
the house and got into an automobile
to go away, whereupon the party had
some trouble which resulted in the
police being sent for land upon the
arrival of the officers the two girls
and the two young men were arrest
ed and locked up for the night.
During the hearing Keenan, was
thoroughly cross examined and when
asked if he did not know that the Du-
til girl was married and that her name
was Mrs. Weisman, he replied that he
only knew what she said and that was
that she was married. At the con-
clusion of the hearing the court found
both girls guilty and ordered them
committed to the State reformatory for
women at Skowhegan, from which an
appeal was taken and bonds furnish
ed in each case in the sum of $500
