Farming on Arid Land.

Successful farming on arid land with
out artificial watering has been
brought to the notice of the Agricultur-
al Society of Germany, with an eXpla-
nation of the method. In Syria and
Palestine, with practically no rain
from April to October, the fields In
July have fourishing abundance or
watermeions, cucumbers, tomatoes and
other products, and plants continue
green and thriving until autumn. The
secret lies in so plowlng that the win
for rains are absorbed and retained in
the subsoi The plOwtng Is shallow,
averaging only 4 to 6 inches In depth,
and after the full harvest 1t follows
each heavy rain as soon as the ground
begins to dry, the purpose being to keep
n loose and friable surface to take up
tho water from the subsoil. In the
snr,ng the land Is plowed to a depth OF
obm,t G inches. The seed Is dropped
nv the plow upon the moist subsoil and
n is covered by the closing up OF the
Loose soil. Protected by the loose COW
airing the subsoil furnishes sufficient
moisture for plant growth during the
entire dry season

"Yes. But forget? Oh, cannot. 4 will

Rising to her feet, she stood, her hands
clasped tightly her lips parted, gazing at
him with the soul itself shining in her
eyes. But Sarto did not move. He stood
looking at her standing between her can

in stone. and very wistful look came
into his face.

he said. speaking as if to himself, "and

z WOMAN LAWYERS CHANCE.

The End.)

If there is any hint of moral at
tached to the New York Sun story be-
low it is that to establish clearly their
| legal and judicial equality women law
yers must learn to regard untidiness
as philosophicaly as do men lawyers.
| This is the story. as one of the hun
| dred women lawyers in New York City
tells it:
| In the early days of my legal stu
| dentship | was in Wisconsin town
spending my vacation, and Judge X,
| the great man of the place. an old
! friend of my fathers, gave me the
privilege of his library
Like many other private law libra
ries in small places | have visited. this
was unsurpassed in number of volumes
and value by any | have ever known
about in New York, where space is so
precious that n lawyer must perforce
depend on outside help for his refer
enceS
In a smaller town yOu must own the
books yourself or go without. The
Judge owned his, and l browsed with
wonder and delight about among the
shelves, which filled three good-sized
rooms, and | realized for the first time
what the law really meant, and how
tremendous an undertaking 1t was for
a young woman like myself to seek 10
make any headway in it,
vpHn
tiOns, by the way. My insistent
thought was one Of horror at the dirt
and disorder that reigned supreme.
| set to work. and finally, after fin
ishing up the outer rooms, | invaded
the sanctum, where the old judge had
gone on day after day without taking
the slightest notice of me and my dust
ing. When he did become aware that
something so unprecedented was taking
place, he nearly had stroke.
To think that |, an insignificant fly
on the dictionary of wisdom. had dared
to disturb the accumulation of sacred
dust. Even his Old-time courtesy was
for while sadly shaken.

perstitions of the profession | was
studying to enter, one of which was the
hidp-bOund rule that no volume should
have its place changed or its face
altered. though the dust might be
inches deep.
| shook my head, and in answer
proudly displayed the completed cata-
logue. where code volumes and common
law had their respective positions.
Finally the humOr of the situation
came to lis relief, and he said:
"Well, have often wanted to know
what women were going TO do when
they entered the legal field, and now ]
know. They will dust the books"

Get After the Fly.

Flies are one of the most aggravat-
ing pests we have on the farm. If
we give them a breathing spell the
poor cows, calves and horses have to
suffer and the supply of milk will run
short. 1t is either fight or lose 1t
is not sufficient to just spray the AMI
mails with fy-repeling mixture In
the morning and then turn them out to
pasture.
A few hours later, when l go to look
after them in the pasture, they are
often covered with bloOd-sucking flies
again, so | take hand-sprayer loaded
with liquid Of which kerosene forms
a large portion along and spray this
right upon the flies on each animal.
The cows soon learn that spraying
means relief and they will hold still
while you spray. The flies quickly let
90 of their hold and fall to the ground
when the kerosene touches them. Wis
iting the animals once or twice a day
in this manner Is great help to them
during the fly season.-L. r. Johnson,

A HELD in Fruit Picking.

In commercial orcharding it is gen-i
orally most economical to have pick
ing and packing work going on concur
rently. This saves putting the apples
on the ground and having to handle
them again. A portable sorting table
upon which pickers can empty their
bags Is placed on low truck wheels and
a single horse can move it to any de-
sired point as the work proceeds. 1t
should be made large enough to hold
not less than two barrels of fruit
The rear bolster is higher than that
at the open end, so that the culls can
be rolled out. A long, heavy plank Is
placed on the ground on each side of
this table on which the barrels are set
for filling The culls are allowed to
roll into a pile from the lower end Of
the grading table.

Destroying ID Weeds.

In destroying annual weeds one
method Is to disk the stubble fields
causing the weed seed to germinate
after which they can be killed by sub
sequent cultivation or by frost Anoth.
er method Is to turn live stock, espe
cially sheep into these stubble fields to
eat up the weeds and weed seeds. The
value Of cultivated crops, rotations and
summer fallows is also discussed
The eradication Of perennials is more
difficult than In the case of ANNALS.
For these they tried smother crops,
bare fallow, chemicals and tar paper.
For small areas Of quack grass. cover
ing with tar paper was found effective.
but was too costly for field applica.
tion. AS quack grass Is similar to Ber-
muda grass in its habit of spreading,
and 1t equally persistent, this method
may be of interest to those who wish
to kill small areas OF Bermuda
