PAGES WEEKLY LETTER

Farm crops are now commanding
 good prices, along with everything else, and with reasonable industry and frugality the farmers on the poor est land can do fairly we'll and escape many of the hardships in life with
 which they have heretofore had to contend. This will naturally cause
 the most of the farmers to plant as extensively as they can of the money crops, with the consequent result that other crops and the land itself will be
 more or less neglected and run down. This will be a misfortune that will rise up and stare you in the face in the future. At no time is it more inn
 portant to raise plenty of feed crops for all live stock and to farm the
 land so it will be improved The
 humble COW pea is great soil inn prover for the South. Last year the COW pea was not raised as extensive
 ly as heretofore, and the supply of seed is low and the price high. The COW pea makes good hay, and nearly always brings good price on the market. They should be planted in
 all the corn, and after wheat and oats. All the spots of poor land on the farm should be planted in COW peas, soy beans or velvet beans.
 Sow the COW peas broadcast and cut
 for hay The hay is good and the
 crop helps the land. The soy bean
 makes a good hay crop and is better
 for the land than peas. A soy bean
 crop is hard to save except for hay.
 The pods pop open when the beans ripen, and many are lost if the crop is picked, but the little beans are hard and will remain on the ground
 until you can turn the hogs in to eat them after crop gathering time. They
 make the very best hog feed Soy
 beans can be planted between the
 hills of corn in the row and be "hogged down" after the corn is
 gathered, or before If you will feed 1 the hogs on soy beans a few days be- fore you turn them in the corn field, there will be little damage done to the corn by pasturing the hogs in the field before gathering the corn. They will like the soy beans better than corn, and will let the corn alone until the beans are gone. They may break | down an occasional stalk of corn. but If the soy beans are plentiful they will do but little damage to the corn. |
 The velvet bean is one of the best soil improving crops for Southern
 farms. It is rich in nitrogen. The ' velvet beans can be planted in rows with the corn at about the third | blowing After the corn natures and the blades dry up you can go in the . field and break and bend over the tops just above the ear This will not { hurt the corn, but give good sup port for the bean vines, and prevent them from breaking down the stalks. The beans should be planted about six feet apart in the row between the corn hills. The vines are very vigor- !, ous and make a heavy growth. In the Fall the corn can be gathered early and then the stalks and vines be run over, which will enable you
The Prescott daily news., 1917-04-02

to blow under the whole mass. This will add lots of vegetable matter to the soil, and produce splendid results in the crop that follows the next year. Remember the COW pea, the soy bean and the velvet bean, and try some of each or all this year on your poorest land. They will be bless ing to you next year.

VISITOR MET WITH
UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE

George E. Guthrie, who is passing
few days in this city, had a mighty
unpleasant experience Tuesday after
room. He was arraigned in the Gar
diner municipal court on the charge
of the larceny of s13 from the per-
son of Harry Draper. the charge be-
ing brought by Diapers Wife. The
finding of the missing money, just at
the close OF the trial. caused Judge
Atkins, who had already announced
his intention Of disChargi1g the re-
spondent to give Draper d scathing
lecture. upbraiding him for his care
lessness and the bringing of such a
serious charge without due investiga-
ton.
Draper is employed in the street de-
partment and received his pay on
Tuesday. Previous to going to din
ner he went to Mansons market and
purchased some meat, there opening
his pay envelope. He then went to
dinner with Guthrie as his guest and
stated to the court that While at home
he felt for the envelope and assured
himself that it was in his pocket. Aft
er the meal he missed the money and
charged Guthrie with the theft. the
warrant being signed by his wife.
Guthro was. in court, searched and
closely questioned. Judge Atkins said
that there was absolutely no evidence
connecting the respondent with the
theft other than that he had the op-
portunity to take the money. At this
roint Deputy Sheriff Robinson went to
Manson's market and found the miss
ing money. In paving for the meat
purchased Draper had laid his pay en-
1elope on the counter and the prohrie
tor had taken charge of it, thinking
i. that Draper would miss the money,and
call for it. 1t cost Draper the costs
OF court SO.
After the innocence Of Guthro had
| been proven and he had been congrat
ulated and sympathized with by all
hands, William Anderson was arraen-
ed on the charge Of intoXication. He
pleaded guilty and was discharged.
Joseph p Baker was arraigned or
the charge of defrauding Stonier and
Baker of 1915 beard bill. Baker said
that it was his intention to pay the
hill this week and took the opportunity
{ offered together with SO costs OF
