jjiilnw me to publish a fear facte
am* experience, and not on hearsay
and («h work. After entertain
ing the idea of deep plough
the right kind lor some ar
year*, I commenced with
lotion dnd determination
to practice the doctrine I ted aa
vanned at other tinea. I acleeted
twelve acred of land equally dived-
ed into corn nnd cotton* It win
ia early winter that I tuned the
bottom stubble with two bones
with a two botae Watt plnuab.eub-
oniUng with ten motes in bottom
of furrow with a Murphy aub-eoiler
thirteen incbea from the point to
the beam perpendicular above the
($
point running in the ground to the
beam. Jj»et before planting I pro
cured some light Gnte Cilv plough
vith new |longba on then.
Ploughed three
twice. Several
weeks drought prevailed in oar
county, during which time my corn
was aa green and freab, apparently,
aa though it bad a good aeaaen,
Now gaiter the seven weeka’drenght,
I gathered thirty-two and a half
bnM of corn per sen, without
any manuring oraiur kind. And
yet witfindme hundred and fifty
yards eoSwPf m same kind of
land, cultivated by reeters, did not
make fifteen bushels per acre. Had
it, beer a good season I am
forced to believe that the six acres
would have made three hundred
bushel*. The cotton land was in
cotton stalks and I broke it with
the same subsoil, bat without the
turning operation. A small portion
' of it wag.an old,field taken without
guano. 1 made 186 pounds of cot
ton, while renter's land within ten
steps (all in stubble land) produced
3,800 pounds for nineteen acres.
The above.facta, not hearsay,and I
would be glad to learn from some
one else who baa tried deep plough

Caught In a Stump.
CteUtallaa.
Macon, January 2C—A singular
case of physical endurance was
told to night by Mr. J. R. Hix:
“1 and M's. Downs, of Illinois,
were visiting Mr. Elam Evans,
Howard district. There she be
came, very ill. On Wednesday her
son, Charlie, went bunting to kill
some birds. During the walk he
found a rabbit, which ran into a
hollow stump about 10 feet high.
He climbed to tbe top. As ho did
so his left arm became fastened in
a split near tbe top. He was held
fast. Attempting to extricate him-
sell he slipped, and was held sus
pended by the wrist, lie could not
possibly loosen himself. He called
for help. Being some distance from
tbo bouse be was not beord. He
,u lie red agonies. Seeing no hope
of relief he made up bis mind to uut
bia throat. He got a knife from
biajiocket, opened it with bis teeth,
was in tbe act of putting it into kis
neck when bia fortitude gave away.
He preferred tbe suffering. Still
suspended be could stand it
longer. Baring bia arm be felt for
the elbow joint, .made a deep Incis
ion in'tbe flesh for the. purpose, of
severing Ails arm, thereby effecting
release, He mitax) the Joint, made
several sashes in the arm in trying
to find it. Under tbe mental and
physical pain, be fainted. Hisnuu-
cles became iclaxcd. no dropped
to the ground. Recovering be walk
ed to tbe hoqse and told tbe tcrrl'
ble story, as tbe Constitution gives
it to its readers.
