The bull which stiuch entered be- tow the left shoulder and plovad through the old man's body, lodging under the shin on hiz bieast, inflict- Ing, it fs claimed, a mortal wound. The bov was artested within an hour after the shooting, and when asked what his purpose wits in fring on the Negio, repliod:; “J dtd it just to heat him holler,” News of the crime was telephoned to the police. Chief J. 1. Robinson und officer Teihins started at once in a buggy ard Deputy Sheriff Dave Rrown and Constable Oscar Johnson followed, and in u few minutes after teaching the scene the officers were on track of the boy and soon loented him ut the home of hix parents on Mieh etieet, neur Front, When taken to the police station he talked freely shout the matter and did not appeur to be concerned or alarmed over the result, He xtated he took a pistol fiom itx hiding pluce under a bureau at hix home and stait ed up the river yuid above the William Manning resideme, he stop- ped In the rond to whittle the ball of a cartridge #n he could invert it, While doing thin he saw Caldwell driving down the roud, coming toward town, and then, neemding to hix statement at the police station, he mude up his mind to try the pixtol’on the Negro “Just to hear him holler,” Poxey returned the pistol to its porket and when the wagon came up nehed if he cou'd ride to town.

A preliminary hearing was waived aud the boy was locked up pending the result of Caldwell's injuries. Wound Will Prove Fatal. Caldwell was taken to Dr. Burt's Infirmary, where he received medical attention, but it is stated there is no chance for his recovery. The man is about 7% years old, and {s one of the most inoffensive colored men around Clarksville, He was an ex-slave ,and ix a miller by trade, having worked many sears in that capacity for' the late Col, George Stacker at Cumber- Wnd City hefore coming to Clarks- Mille.

JUNCTION CITY KANSAS A man who could invest a quarter and get back a dollar and a half would think he had struck a good thing. That is about what a farmer can do in the handling of manure. Twenty-five cents' worth of acid phosphates added to the stable manure will return 150 cents' worth of crops. The Ohio experiment station has proved it, many farmers have found it to be so, and yet most of us fail to invest the quarter or make the worse mistake of failing to care for the manure at all.—National Stockman and Farmer. FOUR SPUD CROPS A YEAR. Spaniard's Methods May Be Good For Others to Imitate. From Spain comes the report of a spanard who grew four crops of potatoes on the same land in twelve months. The potatoes were grown under ordinary conditions, and the ground was fertilized with horse manure. First crop. Scotch seed potatoes planted Aug. 22 and dug Nov. 6, 1011, fair size, firm and good quality; second crop, Scotch seed potatoes, planted Nov. 9, 1011, and dug Feb. 19, 1012, fair size and very good quality; third crop, Scotch seed potatoes, planted Feb. 21 and dug May 19, 1012, large also and much better than those of preceding crops; fourth crop, Spanish seed potatoes, planted May 22 and dug Aug. 19, 1012, poor yield and potatoes small. The grower attributes the poor quality of the last crop to inferior seed, lack of water for irrigation and to several very hot winds that prevailed in July; but, as in other years, the crop of this same period has been a good one, the low yield of 1912 does not detract from the feasibility of the plan.—Rural New Yorker. FOES OF THE ROSEBUD. Get After the Fly and the Blug if You Want to Save Your Flowers. To destroy the green fly, colonies of which congregate on the young growth of the rosebushes and suck the juices of the plant, and other insect pests, we spray the bushes with tobacco dust after wetting them on the dust will adhere. We have also found fresh white hellebore dusted on the bushes a very good remedy. A aifter can be made by punching the cover of a baking powder can full of small holes and using the can in the same manner as a salt or pepper shaker. The rose slug, a light green worm that eats the leaves, may be controlled by applying whale oil soap, one half round dissolved in four gallons of water. The rose tung, a hard shell beetle that eats the leaves and blossoms and greatly damages the rose in best controlled by hand picking or knocking off on a sheet in the early morning. Rosehushes can be kept quite free of insects, however, by liberally and frequently sprinkling with tobacco dust - natural life Keep the Calves 'Coming' The calves must be kept 'coming' whether they suck the cows or are hand fed. Minnulk calves grow strong and thirsty if given a chance. Their milk has to be clean and enough of it. With it they need something to take the place of the cream that is gone. Corn is a good substitute. Oats help also. Ground clays used in the milk is the best, but it costs too much these days. For cheapness and results corn and oats are grinded together or just plain corn coarsely ground and fed dry are hard to beat - Iowa Homestead. Hand or Power Spraying? Hand spraying is more expensive than power spraying. The cost varies much in different cases, depending on the efficiency of labor, convenience and other essentials, and much depends on the apparatus used. The pump should have capacity to maintain high pressure, and the nozzle must throw a fine spray. The requirements are the same for every kind of spraying-Farm Progress.

This works very satisfactorily.—Farm and Fireside. "GOING TO LAW." A conveyance of land described as running with the meanders of a non-navigable stream gives title to the thread of the stream in the absence of a contrary intention shown by the dead - Robinson Versus Wells, Ky. 135 8 W. 317 In selling personal property the general rule is that where no misrepresentations are made by the seller in respect to the quality or condition of the property the purchaser buys at his own risk and cannot recover damages on account of defects or unsoundness, but where an article is sold for loss the law implies a warranty on the part of the buyer that such provisions are wholesome and it to cut, and the rule of buyers' risk does not apply.

Reckoning the Cost of Keeping Farm Machinery Under Cover. A correspondent of the Kansas Farmer says that paper places undue importance upon the necessity of sheltering farm implements and that the cost of lumber and interest on the investment in a machinery abed is greater than the depreciation on implements as a result of exposure. The paper replies: The average 100 acre farm is regarded as saving $1,000 invested in farm machinery, including wagons and boggles. It is our judgment that the average Kansas farm has nearer $1,000 invested. We are confident that the depreciation on farm equipment when exposed to the storms is not less than 10 per cent per year. We are inclined to the belief that it is 20 per cent per year. We know that a 20 per cent depreciation will apply to at least a part of the equipment. "The more equipment exposed to the weather the larger the depreciation in dollars and cents. One hundred dollars will erect a first class machinery shed. If $100 is not available $50 will erect a shed sufficiently large to house in a very satisfactory manner $1,000 to $1,500 worth of machinery. The $50 shed will be smaller, than the $100 shed, and its use will require some piling up of machinery. "This, however, can be done with no cash outlay and with little outlay of time and labor. If the depreciation on the shed itself is 5 per cent per year and the interest on the investment is 5 or 6 per cent per year there is still a considerable amount in favor of saving the 10 per cent or minimum depreciation on the machinery. "It does not seem possible that a wide awake farmer would argue against the advantages of good machinery care, even though it be impossible for him to provide a machine shed." FLOUR BARREL COOP. Cheaply Made and Provides Plenty of Room For the Chickens. Flour barrels make excellent coops, roomy and cheap, says Farm and Fireside, from which this article and illustration are taken. A little frame is made for the front, consisting of four pieces of board, the uprights 6 by 24 inches, and two cross pieces, top and bottom. 2 by 20 inches. Fasten frame to front of barrel by wire, leaving opening for door. ```markdown ``` Unsten it so that a slide door eight inches wide can be easily dropped in from the top. This door is made of one half inch mesh ceiling window wire, nailed or stumped to strips of wood. This gives good ventilation and is absolutely vermin proof. Cover barrel with old tin roofing or spouting so as to make it rain proof and prevent the sun from warping it. Of course a cont of paint will add to its attractiveness, but it is not necessary for practical purposes. Runs of any size made of wire netting can be attached to the barrel, and with netting over the top of runs the chicks are safe from crops or the annoyance of grown chickens. Barrets and runs can be easily moved to fresh ground. The runs are made substantial by the addition of a few stakes driven into the ground to support the wire netting. Grow more leguminous crops and keep animals to consume these plants. This will build up your soil and increase the profits of your farm. What the Lawyers Tell Us. As a general rule, the owner of a vicious animal who has notice of its vicious character is liable for any injury committed by it and due to its fault. A person who, with knowledge that his agent, in violation of his authority, is purchasing goods for use in the business of his employer, fails to dissent will be he'd to have ratified and adopted the agent's acts.-E. D. Keyes & Co. Versus Union Pacific Tea Company (VL), 71 Atlantic 201. If you sell food to a middleman, who sells it to the consumer and the food proves to be diseased to such an extent as to cause disease in the consumer, then you are liable to the consumer for the damage to his health. This is the decision of Judge Noyes in the federal district court in New York. A written contract should be drawn and signed by both the landowner and the renter when a rental agreement is consummated. This may avoid a misunderstanding and prevent trouble. An oral contract should be an binding as a written agreement, but the oral contract may be forgotten or its stipulations not fully understood. ...MAJORS...
