CROP returns from Maine, New
Hampshire and Vermont on the 18th
showed fair condition. Probably the
yield in Maine would reach: Wheat, 49,
59S bushels; oats, 761, 713; barley, 29S, 227;
bucl1wheat, 3O0,0O0;rYe, $4,000. In Vermont
grain of all kinds looked finely. The esti-
mated yield of the principal crop was:
Potatoes, 100000 bushels; oats, 3,O93, 600;
wheat, $4,000; corn, 2,O56,OOO; barley,
273,50O; buckwheat, $4,000. The season
has been favorable for the production of
butter and cheese Wool would probably
fall below the average. In New Hamp-
shire the returns indicated a large yield of
cereals and potatoes. Following are the
estimates: Corn, 1926, 121; oats, 1,O72, al;
barley, 1927; wheat, 174,sO6; rye, S5,O98;
potatoes. 3, 4SO, 900.

How to Send Sunday Afternoon.

1t may be safely said that per-

much like a sevenday clock the

Don't DODGE.

When you meet man yon owe
and have not money To pay, don I
dodge him, don't pretend that .yru
don't see him or dou't know him.
IT you do he will naturally suspi
cion you of dishonest motives, and
believes you have the money TO
pay, or intend to put him of, or
that you don't intend To at all il
you can help it; and ssindle him
out of the money if yon have q
chance; and we fear he would not be
far wrong. Ii you owe merchant,
pay him what you can, if not all;
if you have not got the money don I
be coward about il, if you int nd
to be honest. Meet your creditor
squarely and honestly; look him in
the lace; always recognize him,
and speak to him politely, and for
honor sake don't dodge ar und
and avoid him like you were soma
sneak theft and feared detection.
Every business man has some of
these kind of debtors and has seen
their sneaking cowardice. This
class Of debtors rarely make any
eff3rt to pay their dents, especially
those of long standing; and rather
than pay their honest debts, will
swindle their creditors and seek
new victims.

Gushing Girla.

Somebody writes of gushing girls
rs follows: Gushing gIrs r. nurner.
GUS. They are found almost at ev-
cry turn. Their characteristics are
so marked that tn Y cannot be mis-
taken. They go into ecstacies
over the most trlfing matters; very
common place potato is declared tC
be magnificent" nicely baked
wafties are elegant, ginger pep is
superb" and So on, until they ex-
haust their stock O! adjectives
These girls are also remarkable for
the manner in which they slobher or
gush over each other; one kiss is
suffi lent, as is proved by the fact
that they are perpetualiy hugging
and caressing somebody. That
such girls are nuisance, every one
must admit; their silly slobberIng
unpleasant. A certain ella IS
OF men like their society, because
thay can have greater freedom W til
them than with girls who re pect
themselves and their surroundings
The gushing girl rarely amounts to
no fellow of true spirit
cares to marry her, and few persons
feel complimented by being am ong
her acquaintance.

Aceording to decision of .

According to q decision of a
New York judge, property pur-
chased by soldier with his pen
lion money is exempt from execu-

given in case where soldier had
transferred real estate so purchased,
believing it would be taken from him
IN execution, the consideration be-
ing that he should be entitled to

lecided that the land was exempt

The Gardeper's Moothlv oires in

Inc Gardeners Monthly gives In
substance the following good prac
ticai direction for pruning orna
mental shrubs on the approach of
spring. Indiscriminate cutting back
will not answer the desired purpose
Distinction must be made between
slow and vigorous growers, and be-
tween those which bear flowers on
old wood and those which flower on
new growth. Such SIS grow too
strong to flower well should be
lightly pruned, and in the same in
diyidual the weakest shoots should
be cut in more severely than the
stronger ones. Lilacs and the Phil
adelphus bear flowers on the wood
of last year, and to prune tn N
much now destroys the fow,rS.
while the atheas and others which
flower on the young wood cannot be
too severely cut in.
