the Cultivated Field.

\ There are many plats Of ground
where It is inadvisable to take a
wagon lest the wheels do a great deal
Of damage\to growing p!snts, and to
freshly cultivated land, especially after
recent downpours; yet to economize
time and labor In gathering fruit or
spreading manure or in mulching
plants, haul of some sort seems in.

greater extent on some lands where
there is danger Of overturning and not
stopping at just the proper place and
time.
A broad tire and fiat truck will
neither tear up the ground, start at
improper moments, nor be liable Ia
upset. For heavy lifting, and for
spraying potatoes, the nearer the
ground the better, and IL not made toD

that if the head end of the worm
happens to be split half way down
he will grow two new sides and be-
come Y-shaped with two heads. Or
IT the tail end is split new sides grow
and a two-tailed worm is made.
Sometimes one or two new heads de-
velop close behind the old one in the
angle of the Y. Indeed, the little
creature seems to have a sort of
mania for making new heads and
tails wherever he finds a chance. If,
therefore. the worm, after receiving
several wounds manages to escape
with his life from the cuts which
happen to open forward, little heads
grow out, and from those opening
backward little tails-no doubt
greatly to his embarrassment.
But what of the cutoff heads and
tails! Do they make new bodies and
become whole animals again? Not
usually. The severed head seems to
become confused so that it does
not know what to do. If it lives
1T IS most apt to produce another
head like itself, and change into two
heads placed neck to neck so that
they look in opposite directions. So,
too, the severed tail, equally foolish
doubles itself and becomes two use
less tails growing end to end.
But isn't this really quite impossi-
BILE? A head or tail or even a half
body cannot get food. If it cannot
eat it cannot grow; and that is all
there is about it. Well, it is true
that a fragment cannot eat.
But still it can make the new part
out of it's own tissue. So the animal
keeps gettino smaller as it becomes
more nearly comrlete. until, when the
new part is finished, the whole body
may be no more than the tenth part
of it's proper size. The reconstruct
ed animals are, therefore. forced to
begin life over again like young
worms. In time, however, thev grow
up to full size. When a head end
makes a new head instead of tail,
or a tail makes a new tail instead of
a head, the little creatures must neces-
sarilv waste away and die.-From
