ORGANIC MATTER IV Mr. Burgess Tells of "Souring: the X. Land, and Cites Some f rmci pies From Physics by Way of explanation Interesting: Lxperi ments On one occasion a good farmer came to me and said: "Last spring I plowed under a heavy crop of crimson clover, planted my corn, and got nothing. My land was soured and my crop was killed." Another said he had plowed under a heavy crop of peavines late in the Bummer, Bowed wheat, and got no stand. ihe land soured and the wheat failed to germinate. Still another said he plowed under a heavy crop of vines and weeds, which rendered the sou so acid he was unable to grow a crop for three or four years afterward. We could give a long list of names or men who by their own practical experience have proven to themselves conclusively tbac the use of green manure positively does sour the land and renders itunf ertile for a Ions; time .Now, if one is out for a difficult lob, just let him attempt to di3suade these men from the belief that their land has been soured by the use of green manure. They Btick to the old idea as tenaciously as to tueir right arms. They feel that their theory is bused on practical expert ence (and what is better in the sub. stantiation of any theory than prac tical experience? Nothing, to be sure). Now, we have all had experiences. We know that certain tffects follow certain causes. Moreover, we in stinctively assign some cause for every effect, frequently without tak ing the trouble to investigate the fact on which our conclusions are based. Admitting that all facts are covered by some theory, one should always check his theory by his facta and strive to bring his facts in line with the correct theory. We often Buatain Iobs by assigning the wrong cause to an observed effect. The farmers referred to above plowed the green manure under, planted the crop and received no re turn. There was some cause, to be sure, for the failure of the crop. Some 6h0gms3ed the green stuff soured the soil, and further investi gation was generally thought use. le.s. Some advised the use of lime to correct this acid condition. Few farmers, however, were disposed to buy enough lime to correct the large amount of acid they could imagine would be developed in the decay of bo large an amount of manure plow ed under. The result was that they did not usa the green manure, fear ing the- detrimental effects on the soil, and the land has remained poor for lack of humus to this day. Now, what really happens when a heavy crop of green manure is turned into the land? In order to make the explanation clear, we will have to bring to our aid, a few terms and fundamental principles of physics, but these are simple and easily understood. illa lamp full of oil, put the wick in and; note what happens. The oil begins to rise in the wick and finally reaches the top. The oil will continue to rise in the wick till every drop is taken out of the bowl of the lamp. The oil in the lamp-bowl is called gravitation oi'; that in the wick is called capillary oil. The rain falls on the land aud gravitation pulls it down several feet below the surface. This is called .gravitation water. When the Bun Bhines this same water begins to climb up between the fine particles ol sou jubi as tne oil climbs the wick, and continues to climb until it reaches the surface, where it is dried up by the. sun just as the oil ia burned away by the flame. This 11 called capillary water. This cap illary water continues to rise to the surface of tbe soil until every drop is tan en out of the subsoil and dis pensed into the air as vapor- No farmer would hope to grow a crop with tae water in the first six inches cf the soil only. He expects the moisture to rise to the surface from depths ranging from three to live feet below. Now, let us cut the lamp wick in two and let the two pieces come witbm one sixteenth of an inch of each other. At tbe same time we will put a wide, thin board, Bix inches below tbe surface of the soil Let the lamp burn and let the sun shine on the Boil nd see what hap. pens. Yon have fecund that your oil did not rise above the cut place in tbe wick, and your lamp has gone out while there was an abundance of cil in ihe bow). You have found also that tbe six inches of soil above the board is dry as dust, while that is quite moist under i the board. Whj? Because tbe air space cut off the rise of oil in the wick and the solid board cut off the rise of mois ture from the great reservoir below to tbe six inches of aoil above it. But what has this to do with the "souring of rthe land?" Nearly everything. The phenomenon call ed the "souring of the soil" is near lj always based on tbe principles outlined above. Instead of using How to Cure Peavine Hay Some time since one of our cor respondents said in The Progressive b armer that he had used my plan for curing cowpea hay with success, and right away I was flooded with a host of inquires. Now, 1 have in times past, published my method many times, but it seems that there are many who have not read it. Be. gin mowing when the pods are maturing, but not dry. I cut in the morning till noon only, rut a ted. der right after the mowers to keep the hay tossed up so as to facilitate the wilting. That afternoon rake it into windrows. Next morning turn the windrows, aid that after noon put into cocks as tall and nar. row as will stand well. How long it shall remain in socks, depends on the weather and the state of the growth. But as soon as you can take a bunch in hand give it a hard twist, and can see no Bap run to the twist put it in the barn while the leaves are still limp. Do not pack nor tramp it in the mow, but let settle naturally, and then let it alone, ana it will cure all right. It it heats slightly in the barn, do not go turning it to cool it, for if you do will have some moldy hay, as the air will biug in the germs of mold, Peavines are easily cured if you will amply let them cure and do not go to monkeying with stakes or scaffolds to spoil the hay by drying up the leaves and losing them. I have cured the hay in the above way for many years, and have always had good bay instead of the sticks usu ally seen without any leaves. Prog ressive Farmer.

Sold by Asheboro Dru Company and Rex- all Store, Youngest Grandmother Claimed by Atlanta A grandmother of two children at the age of 29, and of three at 30 years, is the record of Mrs. E. W. Bender of Atlanta. It is claimed that Mrs. Bender is the youngest grandmother on record and her case one of the most remarkable outaide of tropical countries. Mrs. bender, who is 31 years old, was born in 1880 in South Carolina. She was married to E. W. Moore at Columbia, S. C, in 1892. She was only 13 years and 3 months old when her nrst child was born. This child, a daughter, was married in 1909 to Edward Sinclair and in January 1910, gave birth to twins, the mother being barely 16 and the grandmother not yet 30. In January of this year, Mrs. Bender's daughter gave birth to an other child, the third of Mrs. Ben der s grandchildren. Mr. Moore died when Mrs. bin. clair was an infant. Later his wido matried E. W. Bender and their union has been blessed by several children. Physicians claim it is rare in this part of the world that a woman becomes a grandmother even in the early thirties.

You might use some blue litmus paper and test for acid. If there is an appreciable amount of acid present, yn will - get a red color in the litmus paper, but be sure to tear up the vines and ex amine the soil just below; also e- amine carefnlly the eight or ten inches of soil just above the mass of vines. Your litmus wilt hot likely be colored at all because you are not likely to find an acid, but yom will find the soil just below the vines aB wet as mud, perhaps, while the eight or tea inches on top of the vines will be dry as dust.

(To be continued.; Elder Hardy Vindicated We have watched with great in tereet the contempt proceedings of the municipal court of Reidsville, N. C, against Elder L. H, Hardy, of the Primitive .baptist church. For several years we have known this minister personally, and felt that he was true to his convictions and fear leas in his fight against tbe liquor traflio. We knew also that he wad discreet in his statements and there fore we are not at all surprised to see that the superior court has thor oughly vindicated him, and that the citizens of the good town of Reids ville have given him needed and worthy suppoit. We believe that this prosecution for righteousness sake will not only bring a reward to him, but will be blessed of (iod to the enforcement of law throughout North Carolina. All honor to officers and courts, who do their duty, and to citizens, who are fearless in their efforts to over throw the liquor traffic. The American Issue.

A Good Picnic Sandwich A delicious and substantial picnic sandwich is made with Hamburg steak. Boil round steak in a little Blightly-salted water until done, but not loiig enough to make it stringy. and let it cool. Then mince it fine, and mix it with some chopped pick. les, a little iemon-iuice, and salt and pepper to taste. Spread it between thin slices of buttered brown bread, press together, and trim neatly. Do not have the sandwiches too small if m isculine palates are to be catered to. , Mustard Pickle Equal quantity of email green cucumbers, green tomatoes, button onions or any small kind, green peppers and caulilbwer, picked in small pieces. Soak all over night, dram and put in kettle containing vinegar enough to cover. Make a smooth paste of mustard, sugar and vinegar and add to the mixture. Fill bottles and then cover the corks with paraffin sealing-wax. How to Make Swiss Cake This recipe calls for one-fourth cup of butter, one and one-half cups of sugar, two and one-half cups of iur, one cup of milk, two eggs, and two and one half te-ispoonfuls of baking pnwder. Flavor with any preferred flavoring.' The batter should be prepared for the tin in the following manner: Cream, butter and sugar with the hand (the tem perature of the hand seems to melt the butter just right), add the yolks of .Ihe eggs and beat thoroughly; then the m.lk. To this add the flour, which has been previously sift ed with the baking powder five times. ihen the flavoring (say one-half tea spoonful vanilla and one-half tea spoonful of lemon.) Finally fold in the st my beaten whites, put in the pan (oue with a tube in the cen ter), and buke in a quite hot oven until by inserting a broom splint it will come out clean, if done. It usu ally requires from one-half to three- quarters of an hour for baking. It is the way the cake is put together that makes it such a success, so do not shorten the proce?s.

An Illogical Candidate President Taft's great fight in OoDgreas was for Canadian reci procity, when conflicts with the doctrine of high protectionism. If reciprocity with Canada is right, the ptinciple of a "reasonabla profit," far American manufacturers at the ex pense of home cmsumers who could, but for the tariff inhibition, buy commodities and articles more econo mically, is wrong. There is not the least reason why a consmuier in Florida should want to pay a "load ed" price for commodities produced in the West Indies, while a consumer in Michigan pays a natural price for commodities produced in Canada. The producer in the direction of the equator is as much tbe neighbor of the trim btates consumers as the producer in the direction of the Arctic Circle is the neighbor of tbe consumers in the States bordering the Great Lakes. Canadian reciprocity was advo cated by Democrats and fought by the more hide-bound protectionists in the Republican party, plus a few insurgents and Democrats who have not yet explained themselves and will remain permanently unable to do so. Should President Taft be nominated, he would be nominated upon a declaration of principles diametrically opposed to that of Canadian reciprocity, and he would run for office upon a platform dia metrically opposed to Canadian reci procity. Yet he would represent the Republican party as it must sink or swim. The principle of "reason able proht," is the essential and guiding principle of the party. In surgency is mutiny.

Think It Over Were a friend to tell you: "I have had my own carriag and had my fill I have went to three balls in one night, I have lighted my cigar with a ten-dollar bill, and ail when money was tight," you wouid think he was boasting, possibly prevaricat ing. But if he should say that the carriage was a baby carriage, the three balls a pawn shop and the ten-doliar bill a board bill, you would see the joke. When a farm paper advertise thiee full years for 35 cents, and it ia a monlhly publication, they give jou just 36 numbers in tbe whole three years' time. Again when they advertise three full years for a dollar and it is a semi-monthly publication, you get 72 issues in the whole three years.
