GERS Clue,

Crossville, Tenn, April ia
bold bank robbery in broad day
light was perpetrated here today
when two men entered the First
National bank, forced the cashier.
assistant cashier and a clerk into
the vault and made their getaway
with 81, 18O in silver and currency.
Cashier J. S. Reed, Assistant
Cashier Will Guthrie and the
clerk, Raugh Haley, were COM
PEELED to enter the vault at the
point of guns, while the robbers
gathered up all the money in
sight. They then asked if there
was any gold in the bank and
were told that a bag OF gold was
in the safe. The yeggmen locat-
ed a bag containing $500 in silver,
which they thought to be gold.
After locking Reed, Guthrie
and Haley in the vault, the rob-
bers made their escape.
The robbery occurred about l
O'Clock in the afternoon. Twenty
or thirty minutes later H. l..
Woody, a farmer, entered the
bank to transact some business.
Meanwhile, the prisoners in the
vault had managed to unfasten
the vault lock from the inside,
but thinking that Woody was one
of the hold-up men, they refused
to come out, doing so only after
lengthy argument from the farm
er.
About $4,000 in cash is said to
have been overlooked by the rob
bers.
A number of coins found in a
ravine to the rear Of the bank
building gave officers a clue as to
the direction in which the crooks
made their escape. The two men
are described as being roughly
dressed" in overalls. Blood
hounds were called from Chatta-
nooga and tonight are following
the trail.

Better Farming i'm the South
WILLIAMSON PLAN OF CORN CULTURE
A.. Proven successful in Coastal Plains Sandy

plants should now be from twelve to
eighteen inches high.
Put half your fertilizer (this being
the first used at alb in the old sweep
furrow on both sides Of every other
middle and cover by breaking out this
middle with turn plow. About one
| week later treat the other middle the
same way. Within a few days side
corn in first middle with sixteenth-inch
sweep. Put all your nitrate Of soda
in this furrow, If less than $50
pounds. If more, use one-half of it.
Cover with one furrow of turn plow,I
then SOW peas in this middle broad
cast at the rate Of at least one bushel
to acre, and finish breaking out.
"In few days side corn in other
middle with same sweep, put balance
of nitrate of soda In this furrow, il it
has been divided, cover with turn
plow, SOW peas, and break out. This
lays by your crop with good bed and
plenty of dirt around your stalk. This
should be from June 10th to goth, un-
less the season is very late, and corn
should be hardly punching for tassel.
Lay by early. More corn is ruined
by late plowing than by lack of plow-
ing This is when the ear is hurt
1.-The stalks thus raised are very
small, and do not require anything
like the moisture even in proportion
to size than is necessary for large.
sappy stalks. They may, therefore, be
left thicker In the row. Large stalks
can not make large yields except with
extremely favorable seasons, for they
cannot stand lack of moisture. Corn
raised by this method should not be
over seven feet high, and the ear
should be near the ground"
For Piedmont Section.
For the Piedmont section the Will
hanson Plan can not be closely fol-
lowed but must be modified. Half of
the fertilizer should be applied before
planting. The other half should be
applied not later than when corn is
knee high. The nitrate Of soda should
then be applied when the corn is waist
high.
Raise Corn AS War Measure
In response to the call for food sup
plies in view of war conditions, the
Southern farmer should plant as large
a crop of corn as possible. He should
fertilze literally and cultivate thor
oughly so that maximum crops may
be produced. 1t is recommended that
from 500 to 600 pounds of fertilizer be
applied on Piedmont soils and from
500 to 1000 TO coastal plain soils.

J. N. HARPER,
AQrnnnnliSt A

come to the Farm Service Bureau
about methods of corn culture it is
considered advisable to recommend the
Williamson method to farmers in the
coastal region or those who have sandy
loan soils. The following Is an out
own words:
Break the land broadcast during the
winter, using two horse plow or,
better, disc plow. Bed with turn
plow six-foot rows, leaving a flve-inch
balk, When ready to plant, break
this out with a scooter. Plow deeply
in the bottom of this furrow, using
Dixie with wing taken of. Ridge then
on this furrow with same plow still
going deep Run the corn planter on
this ridge, dropping one grain every
five Or six inches.
PLANT early. as soon as frost dan
ger is past. Early planting is espe-
cially needful on very rich lands
where stalks can not otherwise be
kept from growing too large.
Give the first working with a har-
row or any plow that will not cover
the plant For second working use
ten or twelve inch sweep Corn should
not be worked again until the growth
has been so retarded, and the stalk
SO hardened that it will never grow
too large. This is the most difficult
point in the whole process. Expert
ence and judgment are required to
know just how much the stalk should
be stunted, and plenty of nerve is re-
quired to hold back your corn when
your neighbors, who fertilized at plant
Eng time and cultivated rapidly, have
corn twice the size of yours.
When you are convinced that your
corn has been sufficiently Inundated,
yca may begin to make the ear. The
