supplrinr water to Plants.

1t is not easily understood by some
that plants can be overwatered. But
the fact is, they may be literally
drowned, and this often happens.
The position of water in the life
workings of a plant is chiefly that of
carrier; it is taken up by the roots,
carries food to all parts of the plant,
and mostly passes off in the atmos-
phere through the leaves. This rou.
tine is necessary; without it growth
cannot be made, while a surfeit of
water brings decay of the parts in
touch with the excess.
The times when overwhelming is most
possible are when a plant is without
leaves, dormant or nearly So, and
water cannot be used speedily; when
the soil is heavy and does not give up
the moisture quickly; when a plant has
been recently transplanted and new
feeding ibers have not been formed to
take up the moisture, and when ever.
green's are in question, the leaves of
which do not pass the water so readily,
House plants may suffer for lack of
regular watering if the atmosphere be
warm; thorough soaking, but that
once is all that is needed, and that the
plant can well stand.

Sweet Corn and Rane.

In many sections sweet corn is
grown in large quantities for canning
purposes, as well as for marketing in
the usual way.
AS a rule. rape in field corn is so
shaded that it does not get a good
start, but the more open plan of rails
ing sweet corn gives the rape a chance.
When properly sown, at the rate of
seven to ten pounds per acre broadcast
at the last blowing of the corn it will
give one a fine crop for pasturing later
in the season and not in the least in
jure the corn crop. 1t is worth trying
on this plan, especially as the seed is
not expensive, from twelve to fifteen
cents per pound in ten-pound lots of

The Tories reached the shore in time
to see the boat as it was hurriedly
rowed out to sea, and as there were
two men in it supposed their intended
victim had escaped, and so they relin-
pushed pursuit.
Meanwhile Governor Griswold lay
safe and quiet where Hetty had hidden
him until the time came for her to re-
turn to the house for supper.
Then he babe her ask her mother to
set the light in the attic window as
soon as it was dark and to send him
some supper.
That night he made his way to the
shore in safety, found the boat again
in waiting, and after a time rejoined
his family in a home secure from his
enemies.

had been born to him during his alb

"It's my only chance" he said, and

Almost Immediately a mounted party
of six Tories, headed by a British off,
Ger, drew rein at the fork of the road.

and rode quickly to the end of the path
beside her, followed by his compan-

and confused.
(Which way did he go?"

"What?'' Numbered the Englishman.

'Tll have it out of you" exclaimed

mount.
"Let me speak to her." said ore Of
the Tories. 81 know the child" Then,
turning to Hetty, he asked, pleasantly,
Isn't your name Hetty Marvin?'
Eyes, sir"
won't you tell us what he said to
you? We are his friends"
"He-told-he," Hetty hesitated, "he
was flying for his life"
"Just so. Now, Hetty, tell me where
he said he was going to hide. l could
help him, perhaps, if l knew his plans"
Hetty, not in the least deceived by
this smooth speech, quickly and
shrewdly decided that frankness would
serve her kinsman better than silence.
so answered his question.
"My cousin said he vas going down
the east road to the river, where he has
a boat in waiting, but he wanted me to
tell the men that were chasing him
that he had taken the north road to
meet the mail wagon"
"Why did you not say so, then, when
l asked you?" Numbered the officer.
Il could not tell allie, sir" was the
fearful response, land l told him So"
"Hetty, my child,7 again began the
smooth tongued Tory, Everybody
knows you are truthful. Now tell us
what your cousin said when you told
him you could not tell a lie"
HE said that if l betrayed him it
would be his death, and l promised
him l would not tell which way he
went, if l was killed for it,"
"That was a brave speech, my dear.
And then. l suppose, lie ran down the
east road as quickly as possible?"
Il promised not to tell which way he
went"
$50 you did. l forgot. Now tell us
one thing more. What were his last
words?'
His last words were, It's my only
chance" and overcome by fright and
the thought of her Cousins danger,
Hetty sobbed aloud and hid her face in
her hands.
The pursuers did not wait to soothe
or to question her further. They had,
as they supposed, obtained the infor.
nation they needed. They wheeled
their horses and dashed off down the
east road to the river.
Near the shore the boat was in wait
ing forethe governor, and in it were his
two faithful friends, for they had seer
the signal in the attic window.
But now they caught sight of the
pursuing party as they dashed down
the road, and the British officers uni
