The Horrid Thingl

A young man went with his sister to a dry goods store. He bought pair of gloves for his sweetheart. The sister bought pair of hose for herself. The clerk got the packages mixed. The sweetheart received a pair of long black stockings by mail, accompanied by this note:
 II am sending you a little present. Oh, how I wish that no other hands than mine might touch them after you put them on. But alas! a score of fellows may touch them when 1 am not by your side, and other eyes may see them when you are on the street or at parties. 1 bought the longest pair 1 could get, and if they are too long you can let them wrinkle down. A great many girls 1 know wear them slipped down a little. 1 want to see how they fit when 1 call next night. You can clean them easily, dear, with benzine, but be sure and leave them on till they are dry. I hope they are not too small Blow in them before you put them on."
 The young man called Tuesday night to see how they fit, but it is rumored that he failed to win a home.-AtchisOn Globe.

The amount of labor required for the crop itself was about l5 working days, win team ,s days The sesbania used as green manur- ing on the west half Of inc potato ground was given v irrigationS. Bermuda grass, more over, hourished beneath the sesbania to such all extent as subsequently, to require B days labor for cleaning up the .45 acres so fertiized. Although the larger part of the crop came from the sesbania fertiliZed portion of the pO- tatoes, this method of enriching the soil proved very costly, r days mans time and 3 days teamwork being required to put the ses- bania under and afterwards get rid of the Bermuda grass. Nevertheless, the labor en- tailed could easily have been managed by a careful farmer, a the Bermuda digging was done in January when other work was not urgent.

The amount of labor expended upon this crop was large for the area, especially at the transpian ting time. One days team work in time, were required 10 bring it through, al- though the work was not heavy and could have been largely performed by boys. The yield was low owing to the desert and unrer- til Zed character of the soil, onions requiring large amounts of organic matter in the soil to give good results.
