None were coined in 1916, 1917,
1899 and 1880; but in 1881 twas re
sumed and continued to the pres.
ent. The quarter dollars of 1904,
1923 and 1927 are at a high prem
ium. 1t Is said that the coinage
in 1923 was very limited, and that
in 1927 only four were issued, all
of which were secured by one
person at their face value.
The Twenty Cent pieces were
coined from 1875 to 1873, lnclu-
sive. Those dated 1875 and 1876
are common, while those of 1877
and 1873 are rare and are worth
several dollars each.
The first Issue of Dimes was IN
1896, and their coinage continued
to the present, excepting in the
years 1893 1910, 10, '13, rs, '16,

ing dimes are the most valuable
1897, 1900, 'Ol, 'O2, '04, '07.
The first Half Dime was coined
in 1892, as already said, but the
issue was small and they are very
rare: none We're coined again un-
til in 1894 when the coinage was
continued for twelve years. After
1905 no half dimes were issued
until 1929 when their coinage was
resumed and continued until IN
1873 it was discontinued by the
Act of Congress-. The half dimes
commanding t1e highest prem
ium are those OF 1892, 1895 and
1874.
The first Three Cent piece was
issued in 1851, and discontinued
in 1873. The dates sought after
are 1855 and all after that date to
and including 1868.
The Five Cent (NlckeD was first
coined in 1866 and its coinage has
been continued to the present.

WEEDS ARE BAD ENEMIES.
To Get Rid of Them REQUIRES Hard
Work from Beginning to End
Of the Season.

A North Dakota man who thinks
weeds the worst enemy to be met with
in the production of garden writes
the Farm, Stock and Home that they
must be fought early, late and all the
time. The best time to kill them is be-
fore they appear above ground. If the
garden is large a good harrow is the
best OF weed killers. Corn and pota-
toes can be narrowed once week
from the time they are planted until
four inches high. If the garden is
small the iron hand rake and wheel
hoe are indispensable. Pow all tho
garden ground as soon as you are
ready to plant the first early vege-
tables; then once week SUR the un-
planted ground, about an inch deep,
with hoe or rake, and thus destroy the
weeds while young and tender. It
must be remembered that the secret
CT good garden is constant and care.
ful cultivation.
Last summer was very trying one,
no rain falling for over 60 days, so
that most field crops were failure;
yet my garden was a good one; but
the cultVator was kept going right
along, and the weeds were kept down,
SO when at last the rain did come all
vegetables made phenomenal growth.
Cabbage especially delights in constant
cultivation, the surface of the soil
should be stirred at least once a week,
and if twice week it's all the better.
Stir it even if not a weed is in sight,
and the surface is fine and dry as
ashes. 1t is impossible to keep weeds
out of a garden here, the strong win
ter winds bringing seeds along with
the drifting snow, even if none are al
lowed to mature on the premises, so
that by spring the cleanest kept garden
Is we'll seeded to weeds, and we must
fight them from the start.
