Before Hummer could reply a Mer-

well. 1t was the noise that great
man-bird always made when flying,
or just before starting to fly. It was
not loud now. for it was some dis

to say goodby to Hummer. He start

Preparing Tree Holes With Dyna

|. F., Jeffersonville, Ga, writes,
What do you think of using OK.
ploslves in setting out pecan
trees? How should they be set
out and how fortified? What
varieties do you recommend for
the red land Of Twiggs county?
Explosives can be used in prepar-
ing holes in which to set pecan trees.
AS q rule we think one-half a stick
OF dynamite will be sufficient for the
purpose indicated. Some individuals
would advocate the use of a larger
amount, and there is no particular
objection to ones doing so except for
additional cost involved.
Inc pecan tree, as you doubtless
know. has a taproot and therefore
tends to drive directly down into the
SOIL. On this account, it is desirable
That a deep, wide hole be provided. 1t
is particularly desirable that the sub
soil be well-broken up. Pecan trees
are sold on the basis of size. and
while it is an advantage to plant
trees that are well-developed, we are
inclined to think that moderate sized
trees will generally prove more sat
lstactory. Pecan trees should not be
planted closer than fifty to sixty feet
apart in each direction. Liberal fer
tlllzat1on of the soil is essential for
this crop. Heavy fertilization the
flrst year is not so essential as in
succeeding years. During the first
year, from three to five pounds of
FERTILIZER may be scattered in cir
Gle about the base Of the trees with
advantage. We recommend the fol
lowing application for your pecan or
chard: 1000 pounds tof high grade
acid phosphate, 700 pounds of cotton
seed meal, 200 pounds Of nitrate of
sooa. ard 100 pounds of muriate of
potash. Soils Of high fertility should
be selected for the cultivation of pe-
cars. They should be well-drained.
Planting this tree on thin. poor,
sandy soils is not good practice and
VIII seldom prove profitable. We
would prefer to get our trees from
Georgia If it is possible to do so.
Ihere are a number of varieties
well suited to your location. Among
there are the following: Stuart Cur,
us, Bradley. President. Pabst, Alley,
success and Teche The Frotscher
IS highly favored in southwest Geor-
gia. The Moore is also a good va.
rlety for your section.

HELTONA, Ala. Jan. 16.-County
and town authorities today were at
tempting to solve the murder of Mrs
Lewis Scott, forty, wife Of a black
smith here. Mrs. Scott, her head
nearly torn from her body by a load
Of shot, was found on a lonely path
near her home this morning by
neighbors. She had evidently been
killed last night and her body had
lain in the path undisturbed until a
chance passerby found her.
Complete mystery enveloped the
killing, both as to circumstance and
as to motive. Mrs. Scott was not at
tackled nor were there any signs of
a struggle.

increasing rapidly for several years

between 5000 and 10000 acres are
devoted to this crop at the present
