CANONCHET, THE SACHEM OF
THE NARRAGANSETT

THEY had told Canonchet that he
l. must die.
Il like 1t WE'LL" replied the old
sachem of the Narragansetts. Il shall
die before my heart Is soft or | have
said anything unworthy of myself"
Canonchet had good reason to hate
the English. They had taken his ia
Their prisoner and turned him over to
his enemies. the NDhegans who had
tortured MiantoLJmo to death. When
King Philip formed his confederation
of New England tribes against the
the Wampanoag's cause. but he did
not take the field Immediately. The
colonists suspected him, however, and
demanded that he sign treaty agree
ing to give up to them any of King
Philips people who fled to him.
Deliver the Indians of Philip?
Never" was the chiefs indignant re-
ply. mot a Wampanoag will l ever
give up-no, not the pairing of Wan-
panoag's nail !"
so the colonists sent an army
against CanOnchet and on December
10, 1875. it struck the Narragansetts
in their fortified town Of Sunke-
Sauaw, Il. l. There Canonchet lost a
third of his nation, but with the re-
mainder, he carried the war to the
colonists with such fury that his name
was second only to that of King Philip
as word of terror in New England.
Finally in April 1875, he was cap
tured. The English offered him his
life If he would help them against the
hostile Indians, proposal which was
met with naughty silence and an In
dignant fash In his eyes. Next they
offered to spare him II he would send
orders to his people to make peace

Chef proudly. "You have no one here
of equal rank, so ] will not talk Of
peace"
"If YOU do not accept the terms Of
fered you will be put to DEATH he
was told. II would rather die than
remain prisoner" replied Canonchet.
"Oneka. son Of Uncas. is here. His
father killed my father. Let him XIII
me"
His request was denied. They took
him in triumph to Stonington. Conn.
As reward to the friendly Indians,
tbe Peauots were allowed TO shoot
him: the Mohegans TO behead him
and the Nantes to burn him. AS q
return favor. the Mohegans presented
his head to the English council at
Hartford.

The third method Of applying com
mercial fertilizers is to use them as
top or side dressing along the rows
of plants during the period of growth.
Nitrate of soda and fertilizer mixtures
containing considerable percentage
of nitrogen are generally used for this
purpose. When using fertilizer as a
side dressing care should be taken that

soil, so that the small feeder roots Of
plants will gradually reach 1t.
Elements in Fertilizers.
The three main elements of plant
food contained In commercial fertilizers
are phosphoric acid, nitrogen, and
potash. Nitrogen has the effect Of
stimulating the leaf growth, and phos.
phoric acid and potash have a tendency
to increase root growth and to mature
the seeds Of the plants. Root crops and
potatoes require a reasonable amount
Of potash.

for the treaty and only four repub-
