Half Bushel Enough.

Mr.. David T. Leslie, of Leslie sta
tion, was in Yorkville on Monday and
Tuesday. Mr.. Leslie is the author of
the article on wheat culture recently
published in the Enquirer, and which
attracted attention not only in York
county; but in many other counties of
the State.
The only unfavorable criticism so
far as the reporter knows that anybody
has seen fit to make, was suggestion
that perhaps in tie case of a large
grained wheat, half a bushel to the
acre would be too little. The repor-
ter called Mr.. Leslie's attention to
this suggestion, and asked him for
further expression on the subject. He
replied:
'I did not attempt to go into the
whole question because do not be-
lcve people are disposed to read long
articles as readily as short ones. But
when said a half bushel to the acre
is enough, I said it in the full knowl
edge that it is more than enough. Of
course, large grained wheat makes
difference; but I do not know Of any
wheat in this State, half bushel of
which would be too little to SOW on an
acre.
"If you cared to print them all, I
could give you numerous points to
prove that half bushel of seed wheat
70 the acre is really too much. But I
will only give you one instance. Down
in our neigh borhood, in 1898, young
man named Frank Shillinlaw sowed
one bushel on three acres. The reason
he did not SOW more to the acre, was
because he did not have the seed nor
the means to get it, He made 423
bushels on his three acres-a better
crop than was made by anybody else
in the neighborhood. And 1899 was
not a good wheat year either.
"No, concluded Mr.. Leslie, "the
question of how little wheat should be
sown to the acre is difficult to arrive
at. 1t is hard to tell when you have
a stand. lean easily tell when | have
a stand Of cotton or corn, but not so
with wheat. I'll tell you this though;
when you ride over your fields in Feb
rua-y or March and see your wheat so
thick as to almost cover the ground,
you may put it down that you are not
going to make much of crop. You
have seeded too heavily. "-Iorhrille
En0uirer.

The wootne of the woodcock.

The wooing Of the woodcock Is one
Of those sights to witness which low
er of nature In all It's moods will make
a journey Of miles. The scene is enact
ed at twilight, and the setting Is OF
willow or alder bushes whose branch
es are just beginning to show the
tender green Of early spring. Sudden
" from the damp ground bird form
shoots upward like some swamp spirit
until it is outlined against the gray
of the evening sky. Then 1t circles
above the branches, and the song Of
the wooing begins. Hidden in the
darkness of the thick lower growth is
the object to which this love song Is
directed. The bird above circles per-
haps q score Of times. then drops back
to the damp thicket. making 4 sound
which can be lillcncd only to the drop
ping of water into a woodland pool
Again the bird soars and circles. sing
ing still the love song. This is repeat
cd time after time until the last glcam
of light has faded and nights darkness
comes down.-Chicago Tribune.

prvant Had Caught Them All.

Mr.. Harold Goodwin, grandson or
William Cullen Bryant, is the owner
of Cedarmere, the poets old home on
Long Island. Among the features OF
the place are an old trout pond and q
picturesque rustic bridge. Some mem
bcrs Of the household last summer, so
the story gees, were approached by an
old man who wanted to know il that
was Bryant's home.
Yes" WIS the reply.
"Wcll. there's Il rustic bridge around
here want to walk over and troEt
stream | want TO fish up. he added.
He was told that he would be allowed
to do both. do YOU know, he con-
tinucd. my father used to fish here
with Bryant, and he said that those
trout were what made the old man
famous. If he had Il good catch, he'd
get enough ideas to write for month,
and if he ddn't-well. he'd just scratch
his head and walk that rustic bridge
all night and for many nights and not
do thing
"And you come here for inspiration,
I suppose?" said some one.
"Well, yes was the hesitatlng re-
ply; "I'yc come to trout for a few lines.
l don't expect to get Thanatopsls,
but IL catch a small sonnet it'll be
worth while"
Later in the day the old man was
seen walking silently by the house
without single catch, muttering to
himself, "I've come long ways to
lind ont if that was true, and be-
lievc it, and l guessed that Bryant
caught all the trout before he died

SALLlE'S KISS.

And have so many years gone by since she and
were young,
And skies were blue. and earth seemed new, ana
Love its rondels sung?
It seems today hear her sing as plain as once
heard
Sweet "Afton Water" and ''Ben Bolt" and Mag
gie''-every word!
And how her eyes grew softer, and how hope
sprang elate,
Fer life meant bliss with Sallie's kiss down by
the farmstead gate.
The moonlight on the fodder fields still shines as
bright as then,
The planning of the whippoorwill yet rises through
the glen,
And suppose that lovers like to linger there as
we,
Their eyes filled with the light that ne'er shone
on the land or sea-
But is their love as strong as ours when We would
linger late,
Where life was bliss for sallie's kiss down by the
farmstead gate?
The world is filled with prosy things; there's little
left to cheer;
Gray hairs tell plain the time to leave Oh cakes
and ale is here,
Yet something Of my youth returns when think
ing how hung
Upon the words of Sallie thcre-"when you and
were young
And little one, how much I'd give to take from
time and fate
One night Of bliss with Sallie's kiss down by the
farmstead gate!

''Thanks; no. I've food for thought"
he replied, lifting his hat formally.
The next days were gloomy enough.
Towner seldom appeared at meals, and
when he did he was taciturn. AS Mrs.
Hunter talked incessantly she did not
notice lis silence, but Priscilla felt
cowed by it.
"Gibraltar tomorrow" called some
one as they stepped on deck after din
ner on their last day.
The girl involuntarily glanced at
Towner, who stood near, and caught
his eyes fixed on her with softer light
than they had known.
Her heart felt lighter. She had suf-
fered these past days from remorse.
Mrs. Hunter went to her stateroom to
pack, and Priscilla stood alone near
the bow of the ship.
The air was soft and summer like;
the moon shonc bright and clear from
a deeply purple Sky. She turned at the
sound OF footsteps. Towner stood be-
side her.
"Our voyage is over" he said. care

There was q pause. Towner looked
