Gullies are source ofsgreat loss
to the farmer. They ruin fertile
land. interfere with farm operations.
undermine buildings, encroach on pub
lie roads, endanger the life Of stock
and mar the beauty and lower the
market value of the farm. They can
be prevented by increasing the abb
sorptive capacity of the soil by till
ing. protecting the surface from
erosion by proper cultivation, and by
conducting the surplus water from
the field at low velocity. Gullies
can be reclaimed by plowing-in and
seeding to- grass or timber, or by
building sOil-saving dams that check
erosion and cause the filling of the
gully with silt.
In checking outlying, the first thing
Is to stop it at, the head. II possible,
the water should be turned into q
natural water-course before it reaches
the head of the gully. In shallow
gullies. dam built close to the head
will give q fill Of soil In q short time.
In deeper gullies, longer time Ii

and amount Of washing. Brush and
straw, firmly fastened down. make
a good dam for stopping erosion.

are plentiful good results in filling
gdllies have been obtained by the use
of brush dams. In hillside gullies
where the flow Of water II small the
dams are commonly built Of loose
brush sometimes weighted down with,
logs. Where the flow is enough to
overtop the dam, the brush can be
held down by crosspieces and stakes.
Simply dumping the brush into gully
will not give good results. ~,
Before beginning to reclaim q gully
with soil-saving dams, the entire work
OF reclamation should be planned. II
only part of the work is planned

clamation work which may be under

ceedings Of the grand jury which in
dicted Walter S. Ward, wealthy hak-
er's son, for the first degree murder of
Clarence Peters, ex-sailor, were vigor-
ously attacked to-day by former Su-
preme Court Justice Isaac N. Mills Of
Wards counsel, when motion for dis
missal of the indictment came up for
hearing before Supreme Court Justice
Seegar
Mr. Mills charged that District At
torney Weeks had improperly conduct
ed the grand jury hearing, and spec
ideally, had withheld from the grand
jury knowledge Of Peters character and
reputation.

facts that this man Peters was des-
perado and thug Judge Mills de-
clared
Never since the day of the Span
lsh inquisition has greater outrage
been perpetrated than was perpetrated

Mr.. /1s declared that even with
the mass of illegal evidence which
had been laid before the jury, that
body had not had facts ereugh before
it to warrant finding Of first degree
indictment. Eliminating the alleged in
competent evidence, he declared, the
jury had practically nothing on which
to base its charge.
He then urged the court, if il de-
clined to free Ward entirely, that it
at least hold the evidence warranted
nothing more than a manslaughter in
dictment and that it admit Ward to
bail pending trial on that charge.
Ward, who was present in court, ap-
peared TO have suffered from his con-
finement in the Westchester county
Jail His clothing hung loosely OF his
frame and his face was pale and hag
gard
Mrs Ward, who has stood firmly by
her husband since the Staying, was a
courtroom spectator.
Mr.. Mills made her presence the basis
for an attack on Auckland Cordner,
foreman of the grand jury, who il al
eged by the defense te have Influenced

late for the position of police commis
'ioner of New Rochelle to which Ward

.inued:
