BAKER, Agent | ? sasnfuz. *^-t>?'. -'J i TJ"*v^r.-*v,^* w vy v -^?- v w Planting of Wheat, The average yield of wheat in the State for the past ten years has been 10.4 bushels. This yield could \)e brought up considerably if proper fertilizers were used, seedjbed were properly prepared, and good seed were planted. The government is asking that we increase the supply of wheat this year so as to feed the European countries and our soldiers. The seed can be bought at reasonable prices in the county. I have the names of several farmers who n supply wheat for seed. FERTILIZERS. Lime should be applied at the rate of 1000 to 4000 pounds to the acre, two weeks before planting. 250 pounds of acid phosphate, and 25 to 50 pounds of nitrate of soda should be applied when planting. Under the abnormal conditions potash cannot be gotten unless from cotton seed meal. When wheat starts to grow in the spring, 50 to 77 pounds of nitrate of soda should oe appnea. Barnyard manure is the best fertilizer when it can be had. Five to six tons spread to the acre, 40 to 50 pounds of acid phosphate should be used with every ton of barnyard manure. PREPARATION OF SEED BED AND PLANTING. / The soil should be thoroughly plowed or disked so that it is in a good condition, two or three weeks before seeding if lime is to be used. If the drill is to be used the ground should be harrowed and then rolled. The soil is then left thus two weeks for the organic matter to decay and for the lime to neutralize the acid. The soil should then be disked again and the seed drilled in. If no drill is available, the seed can be sown on top of the grown and harrowed in. | HOME v ? DEMONSTRATION ; b COLUMN.

The old miser in the story, who dropped a five dollar gold piece in ' u j the plate at church, mistaKing it ior a nickel, could get no satisfaction out of the deacon, as will be recalled, but he was not the man to give up easily. Accordingly he sought legal advice with a view of instituting a suit at law. But the lawyer whom he consulted was one of those rare and gifted souls who would rather be witty than rich, or almost anything else, for that matter. "Sir," said he at once, "you have no case.
