BsssisMsaBBBB Results of Tests and the Rates of Sowing. The Nebraska Experiment Station has just issued Bulletin No. 113, en- titled "Oats." It aiscusscs results of variety tests, different rates of sowing and the cultivation of oats. During the past six years some twenty varieties have been tested, and about twelve of these varieties have been tested for a period of five years. The varieties can be summarized into early types and late types. The early varieties, which have ripened on an average July 11th, have averaged 53.9 bushels per acre, while the late va rieties have . ripened on an average J July 20th, and have given an average yield of about 40.1 bushels, a differ- ence of about 14 bushels per acre as an average for five years, in favor of the early varieties of oats. Sixty Day, Kherson and Texas Red, among the early varieties, are the ones most highely recommended. Among the late varieties, Lincoln Oats have given best results. Various rates of seeding Kherson oats have been tested since 1903. Re- sults have shown in general that about eight pecks per acre gives best results when the Kherson oats are drilled and about ten pecks per acre when they are sown broadcast. How ever, tho rate of seeding depends somewhat upon the variety of oats used. There is a table showing the relative size of gra.n in different varieties of oats, which demonstrates that with a small-graine- d variety of oats, like Kherson, eight pecks will furnish about as many plants per acre as fourteen or nineteen pecks of larger-- grained varieties. Hence, the rate of seeding depends a great deal upon the size of the grain. Counts have been made upon the different rates of seeding for two years to determine the number of plants and number of suckers or tillers produced per acre. Where the planting is thin the plants tiller freely, and almost as many heads per acre are produced where four pecks is used as where eight pecks is used, due to the stooling of the oats under thin planting. Cultivation of oats has been prac- ticed since 189S, experiments being conducted with plants sown in wide rows, 12 to 24 inches apart, also ex- periments where the oats have been sown with the regular drill and broad- cast and afterwards harrowed with an ordinary smoothing harrow or wcedcr. It has not been found advis- able to plant oats in drills wide apart excopt' in a very dry season, when drilling twelve inches apart gave fair 'esults. Where oats have been sown the ordinary way with a drill and har- rowed from one to three times soon after the oats came up, an average increase in yield of 4.8 bushels for a period of seven years has resulted. However, where the oats were sown broadcast, harrowing has given a slight decrease in yield, due to the fact that many plants were destroyed in harrowing. It is recommended that oats be drilled and harrowed. Residents of Nebraska whose names are not on the Station mailing list may obtain this bulletin free of cost by applying to E. A. BURNETT, Director, Agricultural Experiment Station. Lincoln. Neb. Pleading for a Prisoner. Leon Angus, sentenced to life im- prisonment for complicity in the mur- der of Nels Lausten of Omaha, was granted a hearing on an application ror a commutation of sentence by Governor Shallenberger. A Fat State Treasury. State Treasurer Brian's monthly -- eport shows that the state has on deposit in cash in banks $760,999. md that the treasurer has on hand cash items amounting to $146,102 and that he is accountable for $907,101. Buffalo County Must Pay. Buffalo county must pay the $370 premium on the bond of County Treas- urer Gilbert E. Haase. The supreme court holds that after the county board approved a bond that its dis- cretion as to paying the premium terminates and that it is up to the board to pay. In this case the bond was written and was afterwards ap- proved by the county board. The board thought that the statute relat- ing to the payment of bonds was not mandatory and that the board could refuse to pay all or part or none of the premium. A further indication that the uni- versity authorities are tightening up the strings on scholarship was indi- cated by a meeting of the delinquency committee. Three students in the university were dismissed on account of failure in their studies, which makes a total of thirty-on- e since last September. There is no doubt but that the requirements are much more rigid than they have been, and the university authorities on the whole are taking more direct interest in the welfare of the students. Adjutant General Hartigan desires very much that both regiments of the Nebraska National Guard go to Fort Riley for the encampment, which has been changed from September to Au- gust 15. He has written the war de- partment to see just how many men he will be permitted to bring along, but as yet has received no reply. No company whose men and officers number less than forty-thre- e will be permitted to go, so companies with a less number will be forced to recruit up to past that number or be left at home. The farmers of Nebraska are threat- ened with the loss of their surplus corn crop, worth about $12,C0O,00O. ac- cording to the statement of Prof. E. G. Montgomery of the state university before the Commercial club. The early fall of 1909 was wet, said Prof. Montgomery. There was no weather to dry the corn In most parts of the state and when freezing weather came on the corn was not dry enough to withstand it. Corn which contains from 10 to 15 per cent of moisture can stand freezing without injury. ENDS am TOWN "Athens of Missouri" Disincor- porated by Court Order. Edinburg Dies a Natural Death When Railroads Pass It By Noted for Beauty and an Excel- lent Cellege. Trenton. Mo. Edinburg. known over the state before the war as the "Athens of Missouri." and for many years the rival of Trenton as a tra- ding point and political center, where many men. afterward prominent in state affairs received their first col- legiate training, was disincorporated recently by an order ot the county court. The order marks the last step In tho little town's retrogression since the Chicago, Rock Island & Quincy and Omaha ft Kansas City railways passed the village by. The story of the settlement, growth and decline of the village of Edinburg is full of interest. The town came into existence in 1S38 when Isaac J. Harvey built a store there. Not so favorably situated as Trenton, the growth of the town did not compare with that of the county seat until after 1850. At the half-wa- y mark of the century Grand River college was established in Edin burg. Then came an era of prosperity. The fame of the school grew, and in- structors of the best were numbered in the faculty. The pretty little town was in itself an attraction to students, and the name of Edinburg became widely known. Business boomed, the town took on a thriving air and the county seat feared for its own growth. Then came the war and progress stopped. The luster or the classic school became dim. After the war there was a revival of learning ia Edinburg, and the prospect was fair again, until the Chicago. Rock Island & Pacific railroad came through in 1S71 and marked Trenton as tho fu- ture city of the section. Business projects were killed in Ed- inburg, and the village lost ground, but the fame of the school still lived. BsiuiiiBsiyyi 9kw ja!- - "ayjngt tr3 Grand liver College. Another railroad came through from Quincy and Edinburgh hopes quicken- ed that it would reach that place. When this failed, however, the doom of the village was scaled. Steadily since then the town has lost In population and business. A few years ago the college itself was re- moved to Gallatin in order to secure railroad advantages. In December. 1909. the petition for disincorporation was presented to the court. J. G: Mc-wai- d was appointed trustee for the incorporation, to settle up its affairs, and classic Edinburg is no more. Quick Lunch in England. The quick lunch has been tried In London, and has failed as an adver- tisement. But many of us lunch quick- ly, and this writer went into the oy- ster shop for his half dozen, and felt his elbow pinched. He turned and saw a triend who knew. 'Three na- tives." he said, "and a glass of chablis." "Is that all you have for lunch?" was the immediate question. "That's only the beginning." he ex- plained, and as we stood elbow to el bow at the oyster bar he expounded to mo his method of the itinerary lunch. It takes nim two hours at midday. He begins with three oysters at the bar. Then he walks for half an hour with an objective of the place where kidneys on toast arc at their best. Having disposed of these, be walks for another half an hour, and finds the place where stewed cheese can be relied on. By that time it is three o'clock and he walks home and he-gi- ns work again, having had his exer- cise and bis lunch and bis digestive intcrvaL Also he has seen a bit of London, which Is useful to a delineator of life. The itinerary lunch may be recommended to a man of Inquiring mind and sedentary habit London Chronicle. A Peculiar Accident. A curious and serious accident oc- curred at Liverpool. England. In con- nection with work in the graving dock on the Cunard liner Mauretanla. A gang of men were engaged in bringing to the quay-sid- e a steel plate ol the vessel's hull. Just as the operation was in progress the tfdal chain snapped. This set all the ropes at- taching the ships to the quay in a state ot dangerous commotion. Five of the laborers on the quay were knocked down. One. named Wilson, was struck by a rope with such force that be turned a somersault, and, fall- ing on bis head, was picked up dead. The other four men were removed to a hospital. Feminine Dressing of the Hair. The poet Ovid did not think It be- neath him to study the art of hair dressing as an aid to feminine beauty, and his advice on the subject, given in elegant verse, is excellent. "Never let your hair be in disorder." he writes. "Nothing pleases us so much as neatness." aad yet, he admits, "there are many women whom hair apparently in disorder suits; it might not have been dressed since yester- day; It has been arranged tills very minute. Such was the beautiful disor- der of Vole when Hercules saw her for the first time in a town taken by assault that he cried I love her." Appropriate. "Jobbins is so foolish over that pet dog of bis.

IS ALL ABOUT OATS.BsssisMsaBBBB
Results of Tests and the Rates ofSowing.
The Nebraska Experiment Stationhas just issued Bulletin No. 113, en-titled "Oats." It aiscusscs results ofvariety tests, different rates of sowingand the cultivation of oats.
During the past six years sometwenty varieties have been tested, andabout twelve of these varieties havebeen tested for a period of five years.The varieties can be summarized intoearly types and late types. The earlyvarieties, which have ripened on anaverage July 11th, have averaged 53.9bushels per acre, while the late varieties have . ripened on an average J
July 20th, and have given an averageyield of about 40.1 bushels, a differ-ence of about 14 bushels per acre asan average for five years, in favor ofthe early varieties of oats. Sixty Day,Kherson and Texas Red, among theearly varieties, are the ones mosthighely recommended. Among thelate varieties, Lincoln Oats havegiven best results.
Various rates of seeding Khersonoats have been tested since 1903. Re-
sults have shown in general thatabout eight pecks per acre gives bestresults when the Kherson oats aredrilled and about ten pecks per acrewhen they are sown broadcast. However, tho rate of seeding dependssomewhat upon the variety of oatsused. There is a table showing therelative size of gra.n in differentvarieties of oats, which demonstratesthat with a small-graine- d variety ofoats, like Kherson, eight pecks willfurnish about as many plants per acreas fourteen or nineteen pecks of larger--
grained varieties. Hence, the rateof seeding depends a great deal uponthe size of the grain. Counts havebeen made upon the different rates ofseeding for two years to determinethe number of plants and number ofsuckers or tillers produced per acre.Where the planting is thin the plantstiller freely, and almost as manyheads per acre are produced wherefour pecks is used as where eightpecks is used, due to the stooling ofthe oats under thin planting.
Cultivation of oats has been prac-ticed since 189S, experiments beingconducted with plants sown in widerows, 12 to 24 inches apart, also ex-
periments where the oats have beensown with the regular drill and broad-cast and afterwards harrowed withan ordinary smoothing harrow orwcedcr. It has not been found advis-able to plant oats in drills wide apartexcopt' in a very dry season, whendrilling twelve inches apart gave fair'esults. Where oats have been sownthe ordinary way with a drill and har-rowed from one to three times soonafter the oats came up, an averageincrease in yield of 4.8 bushels for aperiod of seven years has resulted.However, where the oats were sownbroadcast, harrowing has given aslight decrease in yield, due to thefact that many plants were destroyedin harrowing. It is recommendedthat oats be drilled and harrowed.

Pleading for a Prisoner.Leon Angus, sentenced to life im-
prisonment for complicity in the mur-der of Nels Lausten of Omaha, wasgranted a hearing on an applicationror a commutation of sentence byGovernor Shallenberger.
A Fat State Treasury.State Treasurer Brian's monthly
--eport shows that the state has ondeposit in cash in banks $760,999.md that the treasurer has on handcash items amounting to $146,102 andthat he is accountable for $907,101.
Buffalo County Must Pay.Buffalo county must pay the $370
premium on the bond of County Treas-urer Gilbert E. Haase. The supremecourt holds that after the countyboard approved a bond that its dis-cretion as to paying the premiumterminates and that it is up to theboard to pay. In this case the bondwas written and was afterwards ap-
proved by the county board. Theboard thought that the statute relat-ing to the payment of bonds was notmandatory and that the board couldrefuse to pay all or part or none ofthe premium.
A further indication that the uni-versity authorities are tightening upthe strings on scholarship was indi-cated by a meeting of the delinquencycommittee. Three students in theuniversity were dismissed on accountof failure in their studies, whichmakes a total of thirty-on-e since lastSeptember. There is no doubt butthat the requirements are much morerigid than they have been, and theuniversity authorities on the wholeare taking more direct interest in thewelfare of the students.
Adjutant General Hartigan desiresvery much that both regiments of theNebraska National Guard go to FortRiley for the encampment, which hasbeen changed from September to Au-
gust 15. He has written the war de-
partment to see just how many menhe will be permitted to bring along,but as yet has received no reply. Nocompany whose men and officersnumber less than forty-thre- e will bepermitted to go, so companies with aless number will be forced to recruitup to past that number or be left athome.
The farmers of Nebraska are threat-ened with the loss of their surpluscorn crop, worth about $12,C0O,00O. ac-
cording to the statement of Prof. E. G.Montgomery of the state universitybefore the Commercial club. Theearly fall of 1909 was wet, said Prof.Montgomery. There was no weatherto dry the corn In most parts of thestate and when freezing weathercame on the corn was not dry enoughto withstand it. Corn which containsfrom 10 to 15 per cent of moisturecan stand freezing without injury.

Trenton. Mo. Edinburg. knownover the state before the war as the"Athens of Missouri." and for manyyears the rival of Trenton as a tra-ding point and political center, wheremany men. afterward prominent instate affairs received their first col-
legiate training, was disincorporatedrecently by an order ot the countycourt.
The order marks the last step Intho little town's retrogression sincethe Chicago, Rock Island & Quincyand Omaha ft Kansas City railwayspassed the village by.
The story of the settlement, growthand decline of the village of Edinburgis full of interest. The town came intoexistence in 1S38 when Isaac J. Harveybuilt a store there. Not so favorablysituated as Trenton, the growth of thetown did not compare with that of thecounty seat until after 1850. At thehalf-wa- y mark of the century GrandRiver college was established in Edinburg.
Then came an era of prosperity. Thefame of the school grew, and in-structors of the best were numberedin the faculty. The pretty little townwas in itself an attraction to students,and the name of Edinburg becamewidely known. Business boomed, thetown took on a thriving air and thecounty seat feared for its own growth.
Then came the war and progressstopped. The luster or the classicschool became dim. After the warthere was a revival of learning iaEdinburg, and the prospect was fairagain, until the Chicago. Rock Island& Pacific railroad came through in1S71 and marked Trenton as tho fu-ture city of the section.
Business projects were killed in Ed-inburg, and the village lost ground,but the fame of the school still lived.

Another railroad came through fromQuincy and Edinburgh hopes quicken-ed that it would reach that place.When this failed, however, the doomof the village was scaled.
Steadily since then the town haslost In population and business. A fewyears ago the college itself was re-moved to Gallatin in order to securerailroad advantages. In December.1909. the petition for disincorporationwas presented to the court. J. G: Mc-wai- d
was appointed trustee for theincorporation, to settle up its affairs,and classic Edinburg is no more.
Quick Lunch in England.The quick lunch has been tried In
London, and has failed as an adver-tisement. But many of us lunch quick-ly, and this writer went into the oy-
ster shop for his half dozen, and felthis elbow pinched. He turned andsaw a triend who knew. 'Three na-
tives." he said, "and a glass ofchablis." "Is that all you have forlunch?" was the immediate question."That's only the beginning." he ex-plained, and as we stood elbow to elbow at the oyster bar he expoundedto mo his method of the itinerarylunch.
It takes nim two hours at midday.He begins with three oysters at thebar. Then he walks for half an hourwith an objective of the place wherekidneys on toast arc at their best.Having disposed of these, be walksfor another half an hour, and findsthe place where stewed cheese can berelied on. By that time it is threeo'clock and he walks home and he-gi- ns

A Peculiar Accident.A curious and serious accident oc-
curred at Liverpool. England. In con-nection with work in the graving dockon the Cunard liner Mauretanla. Agang of men were engaged in bringingto the quay-sid- e a steel plate ol thevessel's hull. Just as the operationwas in progress the tfdal chainsnapped. This set all the ropes at-taching the ships to the quay in astate ot dangerous commotion. Fiveof the laborers on the quay wereknocked down. One. named Wilson,was struck by a rope with such forcethat be turned a somersault, and, fall-ing on bis head, was picked up dead.The other four men were removed toa hospital.
Feminine Dressing of the Hair.The poet Ovid did not think It be-
neath him to study the art of hairdressing as an aid to feminine beauty,and his advice on the subject, givenin elegant verse, is excellent. "Neverlet your hair be in disorder." hewrites. "Nothing pleases us so muchas neatness." aad yet, he admits,"there are many women whom hairapparently in disorder suits; it mightnot have been dressed since yester-day; It has been arranged tills veryminute. Such was the beautiful disor-der of Vole when Hercules saw herfor the first time in a town taken byassault that he cried I love her."
