have kept him in jail for 22 out of the 
lust 20 years. Martin is charged with

West 140th Street and West 70th Street.

l’hilip Cottrell, who lives in Richmond.

ll 'y Muskogee, Okln. Telegrams were then 
lse sent in the names of the men to whom 
00 « the letters wore addressed asking for 
a money. The police said the scheme is 
s0s being used extensively in New York just 
eo now, but tliat Martin is one of the most 
eld frequent offenders and that they expect 
ns ' to solve through his arrest other such 
pS 8 frauds.

nary 26 by Chief of Pol ice Fitzmorris of 
Hubam Clover in the Coastal Plains of 
North Carolina 
As a reader of Trip R. N.-Y. I be¬ 
came interested in this clover as soon as it 
was made known. Last Winter I bought 
a few outrees of the seed, prepared a plot 
of laud thoroughly, limed it. at the rate 
of 3.000 lbs. of builders’ lime per acre, 
and used the pure cultures at very heavy 
rate, using an acre bottle on one-fifteenth 
acre. I planted seed in rows 3 ft. apart, 
hills 15 in. apart, four or five seeds in a 
place. April 15. I .secured a perfect stand. 
For five or six weeks the growth was 
slow, the best plants not oyer 15 in. 
high June 1 : then it grew quite rapidly 
and b.v June 25 most plants were 40 to 50 
iu. high and blooming freely. August 1 
nearly all plants were in full seed, only 
an occasional plant having bloom. The 
tallest plant was about 70 in., and I 
think the plot would have averaged 50 in. 
August, was intensely hot and dry and by 
August 25 the seeds were nearly all ma¬ 
tured and should have been saved, but I 
neglected.it until September 4. when 60 
or a greater per cent had.fallen to the 
ground. The foliage, even when making 
its best growth, was never green and lux¬ 
uriant. 
After trying it I do not believe it will 
ever become popular here, unless we can 
sow it on oats in the Spring, and after 
the oats are harvested in latter part of 
May let it possess the laud until killed by 
frost in Winter. Soy beans will make 
more than twice the amount of vegetation, 
also a good crop of seed to be eaten by 
hogs or harvested, while all the vegeta¬ 
tion goes back to the soil. Being a legume 
it is just as much of an improver of the 
soil as the clovers. I shall sow what IIu- 
bnm seed I save on oats next Spring, and 
if it grows up to any size will perhaps 
continue its use in that way. but feel 
quite sure I shall not try ft again in any 
other way. j. o. loftin.

Lieut. James Doherty and five other offi¬ 
cers. It has been generally known in the 
underworld for years that prisoners ar¬ 
rested in police raids frequently were 
represented in court by substitutes to 
save them from going to the detective 
bureau, where they might have been con¬ 
nected with some crime. Prisoners are 
said to have paid as high as $200 for this 
privilege. 
Five buildings and 40 automobiles in 
the plant of the Morse Dry Dock Com¬ 
pany. Brooklyn, N, Y., January 26, were 
consumed in a fire that spread with great 
rapidity, and for a time threatened to 
destroy the Morse floating drydock and 
the tank steamship Spalding, which lay 
at a wharf. Freezing temperature and a 
bitter wind blowing across the harbor in¬ 
creased difficulty of controlling the. flames, 
which reached the drydock at a stage and 
consumed part of the superstructure. All 
buildings burned were two-story struc¬ 
tures of wood and corrugated iron. Dam¬ 
age was $100,000. 
January 25-26 a great fire in car burns 
at Chicago caused a loss of $1,500,000.

Washington, D. C., the roof of the Knick¬

—because they are mixtures in a variety of combinations, 
more extensive than ever this season, and made only from 
the very best materials, properly mixed and conditioned. 
They are formulated in such a way that the plant will not 
“fill up" on them at the start and “go hungry” during 
the more important growing period. OUR BRANDS, 
EVERY ONE OF THEM, ARE BALANCED RA¬ 
TIONS TO FEED THE PLANT PROPERLY 
THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PERIOD OF 
GROWTH. 
—they give the plant a healthy start, and maintain that 
condition to harvest time. THAT IS THE REASON 
THEY ARE CALLED “fertilizers that fertilize” — 
THEY DO IT RIGHT.
