CEED SPEED L
The annual complaint against
automobile speeders and other
violators of the law regarding
traffic is at hand; already there
has been some talk of parties ex
ceeding the speed limit when
driving their oars, as well as
complaint against the faulty
speed regulations provided for by
law. The trouble has not been as
bad this year as last, as the driv
ers have been a little more care
ful, but of course there are al
ways some who like to throw in
the "high" once in a while and
see the poor unfortunate pedes
trian dodge for li is life, but for
tunately these are very few and
far between. On the other hand
the automobile drivers are up
against it when they meet some
man with a team or wagon who
refuse to follow the law of the
road and give them passageway,
or who drives from one side of the
road to the other, causing the
man in the auto to keep guessing
which way to turn his machine.
In this city this rule in regard to
traffic should be followed, as all

which is a very popular pastime
at that place. The lake is small,

in this part of (he country. There
are a large number of boats on
the lake and a good boat house,
which makes a good place for a
summer outing, both for boating
and swimming. The party also
made a trip over the streets and
roads in (ilenwood and vicinity
and report them as being among
the best, that they have traveled
upon this season, being even bet
ter than those of Omaha. The
cyclists returned home in the
evening, well pleased with their
Sunday outing, although they
found the roads deep with dust.
The party expects to pay a visit
to each of the neighboring towns
every Sunday, as in the past. The
party yesterday was composed of
Joe and Otto Rulin, on a Ilarley
Davidson machine; Maldon Brown
on an Excelsior, and Edgar Stein

SAM M'CALL, EX-SLAVE,
IS A FARMING WONDER.
An Illiterate Alabama Negro'a Crop
Achievements Amaze Experts.
Sam McCall Is nn ex-slave, Illiterate
ami seventy-live years old, but be la

some noteworthy lessons. lie has woa
fume by producing on his little furin
In cent nil Aliilmmii the largest amount
of cotton to tho area ever groxvn lit
the United States. This Is one bale
to an eighth of an acre of and. The
Importance of this achievement may
lie understood when It Is known that
the average yield for ttie United
States is only two-fifths of a bale for a
xvhole acre.
Sam MeCall litis developed a method
of cultivation on once worthless land
which Is ho successful that he thinks
nothing now of producing three and
one-half to four bales of cotton an
acre or eighty bushels of oats or corn.
The average In the southern states for
corn and oats runs fifteen to twenty
five bushels on acre. J'
Whoa Sum wns made free he bought
land to the amount of lift acres. He
cultivated forty acres and the first
year made hardly enough to keep him
self. He concluded that with bis lim
ited equipment and In view of the fact
that be was doing practically all his
oxvn work It would be wise for him Js
reduce the amount of land. lie grad
ually brought his cultivated farm down
to two acres and for twenty-two years
on this plot has spent all of his time
and energies In what farm experts call
one of the most Interesting examples
of Intensive farming carried on In the
United States.
According to some who have gone to
Alabama to study his methods, the
reason for tho ex-slave's success In ag
riculture Is due largely to the fact that
be has manufactured nitrogen In the
soil unknowingly by feeding the soil
bacteria with carbohydrates and cellu
lose, coming from the refuse of the
crops.
McCall's land Is pirt of an abandon
ed farm. Before bo began to cultivate
it the soil was perhaps as bad as any
that can be found on any farm In the
southern states. The former slave
knew nothing of scientific methods of
cultivation, but was a good observer.
He noticed xvhlte farmers In his sec
tion gathering leaves In the fall to
spread over their land to form humus
In the soil. Sam never heard of the
word humus', but ho" concluded tho
white farmers knew what they were
doing, ond he followed suit lie later
decided to uso tho rcfuso of all crops
as a natural fertilizer. At the time be
began to cultivate his land commercial
fertilizers were little known, and the
ex-slnve has never made use of them
during bis entire coreer.
