Child Meets with Painful Acci- ?
dent.
Little Isadore Vaughn, the 10
vear old daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
W. P. Vaughn," of the Heath '
Springs section, met with a singular
accident last Friday. A window
sash fell on her left foot,
completely severing the middle
toe without injuring the others.
The unfortunate child's suffering j
was intenfle. Dr. J. A. liutledge,
of Ileath Springs, dressed the
wound.
Fitie Ftirtnlnu on n Small Scale
?Improving Poor Laml.
Mr. W. P. Vaughn, a young
farmer of the Heath Springs
neighborhood, only planted eight
acrea in cotton this year, but he
has already gathered 7 bales off
his field. Four years ago the same
land did not yield exceeding 400
pounds of seed cotton to the acre.
Mr. Vaughn haa brought it up to
lta present standard of fertility
by sowing on it alternate crops
of oats and peas, turning the latter
crop under as a fertilizer.
There are quantities of impoverished
lands in this country that
could be easily reclaimed by the '
plan so successfully pursued bv
Mr. \ aughn. Of course the plan
is not a new one, as it has many
times been tried,and successfully
too, by others ; but its effective
ness as a soil restorer and builder
cannot be too ofteu pointed out
and emphasized.
