A Surprised Woman.

A certain Libby woman was con-
siderably surprised and somewhat
startled recently at one of her own
escapades. She had accompanied her
husband to the Libby dump and while
he was working she took small rifle
and began shooting at bottles and cans
standing at distance on an old table.
After firing several shots she was
startled to notice an old Indian sitting
not far from the table, and was shocked
at the possibility that she might have
hit him. The Indian didn't seem to be
greatly concerned. He had gathered
the bottles and dishes from the dump
and placed them on the table.

HelbtM Hints to Cotton Growers
Failure to Secure Stands of Cotton Blamed
to Planting in or Over Fertilizer

stands destroyed or damaged by the fer
tilizer being placed in strip or roll i'm
mediately below the seed.
Another item to which farmers should
give very particular attention is the vi
tally of the seed planted. The farmer
should know the approximate percentage
of termination of the seed he is plant
ing and should put an amount sufficient
to give him normal number of vital
seed per acre. No way has been discov-
cred of separating full size rotten seed
of normal weight from vital seed. How
ever, if seed only terminate 50 to 90
per cent and are of good variety and
were grown under good conditions l
should prefer to plant them using a
bushel' and half to two bushels per
acre, than to use bushel of high-ger-
minating seed of doubtful purity.
The main thing is to use variety of
good breeding, high productiveness, and
premium staple and plant enough seed,
termination considered, to give you a
stand, regulating the placement or dis
tribution of the fertilizer so that normal
termination will neither be prevented
nor destroyed.
