Here, sir! What are you doing?" de-
manded the voice of the dragon.
Allen and Phoebe glanced quickly up the
bank. Then the angler suddenly caught up
his fishing-rod and began to whip the stream
with every indication of industry. Phoebe,
alas! had no such subterfuge. She knew not
what she should do as she noted her father
coming rapidly nearer to the spot.
Phoebe! What are you doing?" repeated
the deacon.

n TOW, what could any intelligent person
Y expect, when a dIgnitied deacon with
an exceedingly pretty daughter, sits
down against a tree and falls asleep in a
rural district where a fine young man likewise
has come to spend vacation, and the time
Is Sunday afternoon? What could an unin-
telligent person expect, for the matter of
that, even granting that the pretty girl and
the nice young man are unaware that the
same blue sky enfolds them both and that
only a few score rods of meadow lie be-
tween?
When Phoebe was certain that it was the
deacon's breathing and not a bullfrog talk
ing politics, the fateful moment had arrived
She wandered off toward the river. to CRAFTY
a natural desire for variety in sound and
general aspect of the scene. Yet it cannot
be denied that when she came to the brink
OF the stream and there beheld the manly
figure OF handsome Allen Brett. her heart

A Sure Plan to coatrol Prices of Cotton.

fine crop of peayines, cut the vines
off for hay after pods are we'll grown
and begin to ripen. Then turn this
pea stubble as deep as possible with
two or three hOrse plows, barrow
smooth and put in the grain. either
cats or wheat, with open furrow drills.
We have been very successful with
oats drilled in open furrow with the
common cotton planter. We used a
four-inch bull tongue on the planter
and ran the rows just close enough to
make aharp. ridge between the rows.
L am sure this open furrow plan for
winter oats is q grand success If you
will uee winter or fall Gown seed. II
yon cannot get at least IS cents per
bushH' for your cotton seed. it will
oe best to use the seed to manure
yonE wheat and oat land. Your pea
vine land will be benefited by the ad-
dition of from 800 to 600 pounds acid
phosphate to I ~ acre. Where good
crop of peavines has been grown it
does not pay to use cotton seed at 25
cents per bushel for either oats or
wheat.
Most of the ;srge seed houses now
inOculate seeds tor leguminous crops at
small additional cost, and if the
lend you intend sowing in any of the
clovers have not proven to be good
clover land. it viii surely pay you to
buy the inOculated seed. This makes
the risk much less.
AS rule most any land that has
been heavily manured with stable
manure within two years will produce
good crops of alfalfa or any of the
clovers without inoculating the seed,
but 1t is very. necessary to inoculate
where artificial manure or cotton seed
has been used alone.
1t is costly job to prepare land for
any leguminous crop, and in addition
to the cost of preparation and manure
the seed is considerable item of cost,
and the small additional cost for in
ocnlating the seed will remove the
risk here.
Make the land rich, aud then You
can afford to prepare it as 1t should bs
prepared. DON'T sweat on Door land,
only when you are trying to make ii
rich. 1t won't pay, and besides this,
you feel 40 badly while working poor
land.

The good word comes from Washing

were unfourded. Some of the stories
placed the number II assertions while

mel OF the fleet. Moreover, the naval
authorities class these rs stragglers
rather than deserters, men who over
stayed their shore leave and had such
a good time with newly made friends
on shore that they were unable to get
back to their ships when expected.
This explanation puts matters in a
much better light. for IL was not at all
encouraging to read that men were

The Re stored Verse.

A few days ago the Journal had a
reference In these columns OF the acton
Of the New York Legislature in striking
out from the Star Spang!ed Banner.
as printed in the school Looks Of New
York. a versa written later by Oliver
Wendell Holmes and restoring verse
which was in the original song as writ
ten from Francis Scott Key during the
war of 1912. A correspondent OF the
Journal asks us for a copy of the verse
which is to he restored. and We take
pleasure in complying with the request.
This is the Verse, the third in the song,
which Mr.. Key wrote and which is to
be restored in the song as sung in the
schools in New York.
And where is that band who 50 va',nt-
ingly SwOre
That the havoc Of war and the battles
confusion
4 home ard country should leave us no
more?
Their blood has washed out their foul
footsteps pollution.
No refuge could save the hirelng and
slave
From the terrors of flight or the gloom of
the grave"
The verse which was substituted fO.'
this was written during he Civil War
by DR.. Holme: and vas as follows:
When our land is illumined by Liberty $
smile
II foe from within strikes a blow at
her glory
Down. down with the foe who dares to
defle
The stars of her flag and the page of
her story:
Ey the millions unclaimed who our birth
right have gained
We will keep her bright blaZon forever
unst?ined.'
1t must be conceded that the substi-
tuted verse is all right in itself. and
considered as poetry is nnquestionably
superior to the original verse written
by Key. 1t expresses patriotic senti-
Tant and emphasizes n principle dear
to all good Americans. Nevertheless.
nobody had right to interpOlate it in
the song as written by Francis Scott
Key, and so. while the verse is all right

American patriotic songs. IL was wrong
to substitute it in The song which is
now generally accepted as the national
anthem. The New York Legislature is
to be commended for cutting it out of
the song as taught the young people in
that state and restoring in its place the
original third verse.
