20 place, asking assistance 10 get 20
some other place. She Is said 20 be
feeble minded. and TO have a feeble
minded son in the army.
The woman has had so many
aliases that the authorities have los;
track OF the many names. and the

funds is a plausible one. She usual
Is mentions names OF prominent men

ally. and tells a pitiful case of suf-
fering that usually brings her assis-
lance.

er cases that have come to the Rec
Cross !n the past few months have
cen investigated. and many persons,
both men and women, seem to gain
a good living by obtaining money
from charitable institutions. Rigid
investigation at the Red Cross ha
revealed chat many such persons ap-
plying for aid do not tell the truth
and then aid is refused, and othe
city charities are notified that the
investigation has been made.

is investiRa ting is a search for Pvt

markers are used, among which are the single shovel blow, flat solid marker, disc marker, drag marker and cleated roller.
 Where ridge culture is practicec, the ridge should be prepared by means of turning blow or other suitable machinery about one week before planting, in order to allow the soil to settle. The tops of the ridge should be rolled or dragged off just ahead of the planters or planting machine This gives fresh damp soil in which to set the paints. A roller is sometimes used that has cleats nailed to at regular intervals, which mark the place to set the plants, at the same time the ridge is leveled Experiments indicate that a low ridge three or four inches high gives the best results. Some growers prefer to plant by the level method and develop low ridges by throwing the soil to the plants at each cultivation. Leyed culture IS best where the crop is fed to hogs.

 POTATO LAND EARLY

The soil for planting of sweet po- tatoes should be plowed deeply to allow for the proper development of the roots, according to c. Wool sey, korticulturist of the Agricul- tural Extension Division, Uniyersi- ty of Arkansas. As the potatoes are not planted in the field until after danger of frost Is over, it is possible for the grower to choose a time to prepare the land when all conditions are ideal. The land should be narrowed, if possible, the same day plowed. When the land is finished it should be loose and pliabde to a depth of six or seven inches. with smooth surface.
 The land should be allowed to settle for several days before be- ing prepared for planting. Where leve! culture is praeticed, the land should be narrowed and then marked in both directions. Many kinds ot

BUY A PIG IN POKE

Pigs are not sold in this style now, but a long time ago in "Mer- rie England" sucking animals were tied in bags of cloth and thus brought to market. Occasionally a farmer would succumb to the de- sire to profiteer, not by raising his price but by putting through a clev- CT bit of deception. As most of the buyers were butchers that purchased the pigs from half dozen or more farmers, the dishonest man was not always discovered. However, you can imagine the feeling of buyer when he opened a bag and found therein q large cat
