SOWING TIMOTHY AND CLOVER

at what time. Would you advise SOW

bury county, South Dakota.
Reply by DR.. A. H. Hume, State col
lege ~agronomist: MY guess is that
you will get better results sowing
with early sixty-day oats or barley.
Sow not over one bushel of the oats
or barley per acre as a nurse crop,
prepare the land in the fall and SOW
in the spring. Sow the nurse crop
first, then SOW the clover and timothy
mixture, sever pounds of each by
weight, IA pounds per acre, and har-
row in Immediately. If you can do
this in April, the earlier the better,
the thin seeding of small grain will
make a good crop of grain. If per-
chance the season is dry, cut the small

on Thursday, December /. They were
brought back to Bookings and lodged
in the county Jail, under bonds of
s. 5000 each. None Of them could fur
nish the bonds so they were held
there until their trial at the January
session OF the circuit court. They
all plead guilty to burglary before
Judge c. X. Seward and were SEN
fenced on January 80, 1910. Reed
and Laton were given light sentences
but LOTUS and Forbes, who were con-
sidered to be holder characters and
tougher customers, were given heavy
sentences. Lotus got 8 years and 9
months, Forbes was given 5 years
and l month. As court was in ses-
X. H~alvorson to get away and take
them to Sioux Falls, to the penitenti-
airy, SO they were to be held in Jail
until court should adjourn. On the
night of Wednesday, February /,
LOTUS and Forbes made their escape
from the Jail by getting out Of the
cage in some manner and saving a
lock off a small door in the steel graf
ing over the window on the west side
of the building. By raising the sash
and pushing out the storm window
they easily made their escape through
this opening. These two men had
been confined on the first floor, the
other two were on the second floor
which prevented them from making
their escape also. The night was cold
and stormy with 4 strong wind blow,
ing from the northwest, so no one
heard them escape. A thorough
search was begun the next day, but
no trace was found of the escaped
prisoners. The fruitless search lasted
for weeks. 1t was thought that they
made their way to Sioux City which
was a ~favorite hangout for thugs at
that time. Lotus now volunteers the
information that they did not leave
Brookings at all the night they cs-
capped, but remained hidden in the
city, while everybody was out scour-
ing the country for them.

may well be called one of the ancient

oldest Jews the hare and it's near rel

excluded from the ranks of edible ami
mails; but as the flesh of the hare was
found to be both nutritious and whole
some the prejudice against it gradually
disappeared and it began to be grown
and domesticated for food.
