She Cost Hel" Weight in Gold.

Mrs. Jesus Castro, an aged Mexican
lady, now residing at American Flag,
in the Santa Catalina mountains, is
perhaps the only woman who, literally
speaking, ever cost her husband her
weight in gold. 1t is said that in the
early gold digging days of California
she was resident Of Sonora, in which
state she was born and grew to
womanhood When about the age OF
II q paternal uncle, but few years
her senior, returned with his COM
panions, gold laden, from the Ell
Dorado Of the west, and became des
perately enamored Of her. He sought
her hand in marriage and was accept
ed, but the church refused, because Of
the rear relationship existing between
them, to- solemnize the marriage.
Persuasion being in vain, he tried
the power OF gold to win the church
his way, and succeeded only by the
payment, Of her weight in gold. She
at that time weighed III pounds, and
against her in the scales glittering dust
was shoyeled. Her at1ianced husband
still had sufficient of this worlds
goods to provide q comfortable. home,
and they were married They lived
happily together and she bore TO- her
husband eleven children. In the
course of years he died, and she mar
ried again, Mr.. Castro being her Sec
ond husband. The above is afact and
not fiction. as living witnesses can
prove--1uc5on Star.

Why are Onions Difficult TO Raise :

MANY OF cur readers seem to have
troublein raising onions from seed.
The seed will grow, and so do the on
ions, but they do not form bulbs.
They produce thick necks and keep
green an,, growing until cut down by
frost Many think this is due to eli
mate. Possibly this is so, but in many
cases the trouble is more likely to be
due to: some Of the following causes
namely: Poor seed, poor land. late
sowing and weeds. By poor seed we
do not mean see,. that viii not grow,
but ll-bred seed, seed grown from 4
crop OF onions, the best Ut which have
been sold and those not good enough
to sell, planted for seed; a scallion-
lsh onion, or one with ii small bulb and
q thick, immature neck, will produce
quite rs much and quite rs goOd-ioo]k-
ing seed as the best formed bulb---in
fact more seed and better looking seed.
Seed grown from solutions, or troA
thic.l-neckod onions will be very sure
to produce scallions. We can row
down strea1a faster than we can pull
up against The current The onion
has been brought to perfection by high
feeding and careful selection, and if
we would maintain what we have
gained, we must continue our efforts,
but must net select the poorest onions
to breed frcrn. BY poor land. we do
not mean land that viii not produce 81
good crup.d corn or wheat or pota-
toes or grass Land might be too rich
for wheat, but not rich enough for on
ions. This same land might, without
any manure, become rich enough for
onious, We know low mucky land
where onions arc successfully grown
year after year without manure, but
which at first produced very poor
crop. 1t needed the thorough tillage
and freedom from weeds which all
onion growers find so essential. Onion
seed should be sown the moment the
frost is cut of the surface soil The
land should have been made ready the
autumn previous If this is not Gone
and YOU have to get the land ready in
the spring, you may get a fair crop OF
onions, hut can hardly expect q full
yield, Even if everything else is fav-
orable. if the onion patch is not kept
free from weeds, you viii be pretty
certain of getting a liberal sprlnkling
of scallions. TO certain extent, rich
land AM! freedom from weeds have the
same effect: both are favorable to rap
id growth. Onion roots spread out
very little on the surface; they strike
straight down. This is probably why
land that has been thoroughly titled or
heavily manured for years is best for
onions. The fertility has had time to
get down towards the suosoil.-- Anaer-

when we come down to work we have
to boss the job and use our own ideas.

there is no welI-defned method as to
ORIGINATING styles. Observation and

The business Of making style has in

so much change in style demanded by
