NEW HAVEN
E
NKW YORK, Nov. . William
Kockorcllor, Stnmlnrtl Oil multimil
lionaire, appeared today In the crim
inal branch ot tho United States dis
trict court and entered n plea of not
guilty to the indictment charging
liltn with conspiracy in connection
with his acts as a former director of
the Now York, Now Haven and Hart
ford railroad company. He was
placed under $50,000 bond lo insure
bis appcaranco for trial.
Mr. Rockefeller appeared feeble an
lio walked unsteadily from his auto-
jnobllo Into tho building and to the
elevator.
In n husky whisper, audible hardly
ten feet away, Mr. Rockefeller said:
"Not guilty," nfter tho clerk had
asked him how he desired to plead.
John A. Oarver, Mr. Rockefeller's
attorney, asked the court for the cus
tomary period of grace In which the
plea might bo withdrawn or changed
a formal request that has been
made in the caso of each of tho 10
other former directors of tho New
Haven who were indicted last Monl
day. Judgo Foster replied that Mr.
Rockefeller would bo given until No
vember 2.1, tho date that has been
fixed in tho case of tho other de
fendants. Ot the 21 men Indicted,
Mr. Rockefeller was the 17th to
plead.
Kor the first time In tho memory
ot Now York nowapapcr photograph
ers, Mr. Rockefeller consented to poso
for a photograph.
BANNOCKBURN

LONDON, Nov. C. 3:40 a. m. The
correspondent ot the Chronlclo In
northern Franco states that tho Han
nockburn ruse has been repeated suc
cessfully by the Rrltlsh in the bat
tle of tho Yser. He says:
"About 25 ynrds in front of our
trenches deep pits wore dug. These
were covered with branches and
loose turf, as nt Uannockburn, and
into Ui oho tho OerinaiiB fell In heap,
calling out pitiably when, too late.
they discovered tho stratcgem.
"Our troops watched their de
struction with a grim sangfroid and
continued to bring down as many as
posslblo before they reached tho jIts
no that they would not be too quick
ly choked.
"Although tho Germans then filled
tho pits others camo on in greater
numbers and tho pits soon became
r scene of appalling horror. The
Hermann struggled, cried and fought
one another In their vain attempts
to extrlcato themselves. Many wero
accidentally transfixed by the bayo
nets of those who had first fallen
while others wore shot by comrades.
A fcholl fell into ono pit and the
huddled mass within was blown out
of existence."
WASHINGTON, 1). (, Nov. .V To
stimulate the growth of. n lawn and to
improve it iiimcannico for the tol-
lowing sprihjr. no better treatment

the late fall, nt'conl'tip to the I'nited

It is most important that the man

seeds are Killed; otherwise, damnjje
done liv weeds will more than offset
the fertilizing value of the uppliea
tion. Manure really needs careful
handlinir before it is suited for
spreading oer the lawn. Unless it
is property "composted, it may have
most of its valuable constituents de
stroyed by improper handlinir. To
"compost"' manure properly it should
be treated as follews:
Pile all manure in heaps with alter
nate tnyers of sod or other litter.
Keep it wet enough so it will not hum.
Let it stnud a whole year through
summer and winter, forking it over
two or three times diirinir the year. It
will then be ready for use 'mi the
lawns and danper from weed seeds

(round Rone Jleal ami Wood Ashes
Many people object to the ne of
manure at till, not only because of the
danger from weed seeds, hut because
of its unsightly and insanitary np
penranee. These will undoubtedly
prefer to use something else, and the
most economical substitute is finely
ground bone or bone meal. This
should be applied at the rate of from
J500 pounds to one ton per acre, tie
cordm" as the ground is more or less
rich. It should cost between .'J."i and
$30 n ton.
With the one meat it is desirable
to use double tho quantity of wood
ashes. The.o ashes contain conoid
emblc lime in n. very desirable form,
as well as other valuable elements.
However, thev are apt to be more or
less costly.
Ordinarily miniate of potash would
be found mote, economical than wood
ashes, although the potash does not
contain the lime which the other fer
tiliser impuits to the soil. On ac
count of the Kuropean war, the pot
ash may "rove more difficult lo ob
tain than the wood ashes. Only one
tenth the tpiautity of potash should
be used as of hone meal.
The otash may be sown separate
ly or mixed with the bone meal s'
desired. The same i true of wood
ashes if these are used instead of
jH)tash. All medications should be
made before the ground free.es per
manently tor mo wiuier, as oliietwis(
tlte fertiliser may he largely washed
from the soil before it has a chance
to become incorporated with it.
In regions where cotton seed meat
mnv be obtained at n nrice not ocr
ifM per ton, it may be used satisfac
torily in the nlnee of the giound hone.
Taukae and fish scraps are even
richer in imnorlnnt elements than
ground hone, but are frequently in
bad mechanical condition for liand
lintr (that is, they contain hair or
other foreign coarse matter). Their
had odor 11N0 makes them objection
able. Prepared sheep manute is tin e-

sterilized by drying and rendered
odorless there tire not the objections
to it that there might be to oidiuury
manure. Its one drawback is ex
pensivene. To protect worn places: If there
are niiv narts of the lawn which will
be tramped over when they are not
frozen and especially wlitu snow N
melting there, these parts should be
protected to prevent persons from
cutting across-. Tramping on the turt
when it is covered hv slush or snow
is as destructive to a lawn as al
most anything cKe.
It is hardly neeessnr" to snv that
nothing will be gained by scattering
grass seed on the lawn at this season.
