Jobson System Seems to Do Away
With Old Trouble--Gains 3 Days
On Wet Land and Puts it In AS
Good Shape AS Last Fall Plow-
ing.
Now that the spring blowing season
is on, nearly everybody sees whole
lot of trouble ahead that they hadn't
thought of since this time last year,
and nearly everybody wishes they had
gone over their land and given it as
much deep blowing last fall as it
needed.
The fact is, spring blowing is a
serious proposition at best; for the
ground has more water in it at this
time of the year, and the deeper you
so with a pillow the wetter it is. So
you are cup against it, as the say
ing is; for if you pillow shallow you'll
make a third less crop, and if you
pillow deep you may get into this wet
subsoil and pull it up on top to clod
and bake until your field will be
simply ruined.
It's just this situation, which has
occurred year in and year out since
blowing was invented, that has caused
the JObsOn System or deep blowing
to attract so much attention all over
the country. BY the action of the
remarkable, but extremely practical,
JobsOn PloW the top soil is turned
and left on top and the bottom soil
taurned on the bottom, thus prevent
ing the baking and impOverishment
of the top layer and, as many promi-
nent agriculturists and practical
farmers claim, completely solving the
spring blowing problem They say
it not only sets the farmer free TO
pillow deep any time Of the year, but
that land can be plowed from one 70

FRANK lICHER IN
NEW ATTEMPT FOR
LEGAL ClEMENCY

Aurora, June An effort to get
Frank Licher out of the county Jail
Is soon to be made. it was said by AS
sistant States Attorney Brue Amell
Licher was sentenced to one year in
the county Jail last February on the
charge of contributing to the dein-
quency of eight year old lone Thomp-
son, daughter of Mrs Isabelle Thomp-
son, with whom Licher has been ar.
rested several times.
Attorney John NJ. Raymond Amell
says, will endeavor to have Licher
paroled in the county court this af
ternoon when he will go before Judge
S. N Hoover with such an applica
ton. Judge Hoover has told the as
sistant states attorney that he would
not parole Licher without the sane
ton of Amell
"Licher is where he belongs now
and will stay there as far as getting
sanction for his release from me is
concerned" said Attorney Amell to-
day. He has been mixed up in to
many crimes and neglected his fam.
lily in such shameful way that he
deserves no mercy at all,
Lichers mother wants him out of
jail It is said, and it is understood
that he was promised to leave the
state and never return if given his
parole
County Judge s. n Hoover ordered
the matter continued for one week
and States Attorney Charles Abbott
of Elgin, Judge s. n. Hoover and
Assistant States Attorney J. Bruce
Amell will have a conference next
week regarding the parole.
At the time Licher was sentenced
TO serve year, an effort was made
to have Judge Hoover agree to a pa
role at the end of six months. if
Licher would agree to plead guilty.
The judge refused.
