Actions Of One Player After a Kick In
the Head.
Speaking Of queer things in foot

game that was played at Annapolis
some years ago between Columbia and
the Naval academy teams.
Zone of the men ON the Columbia
team, the quarterback and a very
prominent player of the year. started
the game in good condition. but after
part of the first half he was kicked in
the head in one scrimmage It took
some time to get him around, but he
suddenly arose and gave a signal The
two teams lined up and play went
right on.
This man went through the game,
and no one noticed that anything was
wrong with him. When the me was
over and the Columbia team was on
the way back to New York in the train
this player, who had appeared to be in
brown study, suddenly turne to the
man next to him and asked, Who won
the game-what was the scorer and
number of other questions that made
it seem as if he hadn't been anywhere
near the field of play.
'"The players were greatly surprised
and thought perhaps the kick in the
head had hurt the man so that his
mind was affected. Later they learned
that he was unable to tell what hap
pened from the moment lie got the
kick in the head until the time he re-
covered consciousness, so to speak, on
the train.
His playing of quarterback and his

A FABLE OF NIGERIA.
The Crafty Spider and the Way He
Paid His Debts.

The following fable of the spider is
one of the folk tales of northern Nj
geria:
A spider, it seems, had occasion to
borrow sum of money. A journey
round to the generously disposed
brought him 1000 cowries each from
the cat, the dog, the hyena, the leopard
and the lion. When pay day came
round, the spider remained at home to
receive the visits of his creditors in a
certain prearranged order First came
the cat to claim repayment of his loan.
''Hushv' said the spider 81 hear a
noise outside. 1t is dog come to see
me. You must hide under this Gala
bash for safety" The cat was scarce
~ hidden when the dog, coming in,
made similar request for his money
Says Master Spider, There is a cat
under that calabash Take him and
consider the debt paid" No sooner
said than done. Just then snuffling
and scraping were heard at the door.
The third creditor, the hyena, had ar
rived. Don't be alarmed, my dear
dog, but hide here till he has left"
And the spider hustled him under the
calabash. Il smell a dog" said the
hyena, routing about. Under that
calabash,'' the spider replied. Eat him
up, and your debt is paid The dog
paid the penalty of his simplicity, and
all was quiet once more The hyena
was preparing to leave, when he heard
an ominous sound that sent him
crouching against the wall. 1t was the
pattering of the leopard's feet at the
door. Quick. Under this calabash p
cries his host, and the hyena curls up
in the fatal cache, only to meet like
fate from his more courageous enemy
''My debt is repaid" said the leopard,
and ran against the lion coming in. A
terrible fight ensued, for the leopard
and the lion are equal in strength, so
the natives say. When blood and dust
make havoc in the house and both an
J 1mals are exhausting their strength
/ the spider is busy at the fire. Selling
pot of boiling grease he pours it
over the clawing mass. Leopard and
lion roll apart in their death agony,
and the spider has only to straighten
and clean up before resuming once
more the humdrum life of fly catching.
No wonder he is known as "Mai-
wayo," the crafty one.

them for several days you will find
that they will not terminate, no mat
ter how warm they are kept, because
they cannot get air. The reason is that
without both air and warmth the en-
zymes cannot prepare the food for the
plant. and if it cannot get food of
course it cannot grow
After the plant has started to grow
the seed coat is no longer of any use
30 it. In some plants, such as corn,
the little plant finds its way out very
easily. The little pumpkin plant, with
it's heavy coat, has harder time. IN
deed, were it not for little contriv
ance with which nature has provided
it it could not get out at all. This is a
tiny hook on the lower end Of the
seed. This hook catches ON the end of
the seed coat and peels it back as
neatly as you take off your coat
Watch for this in terminating pump
kin or squash seed and see if you can
not notice it. In some seeds, like hick-
DRY nuts, the plant is unable to get out
until the seed coat is cracked by the
frost or in some other way.
We have seen that a seed cannot
start to grow unless it has moisture,
warmth and air. 1t not only needs
these, but it needs them in the proper
proportions. In a light, sandy soil
moisture is often lacking, and the
seed is slow in terminating for this
! reason. In such soil growth will
start more quickly if the soil is pack
ed tightly around the seed. The seed
will soak up moisture more rapidly if
the particles of soil are in close con-
tact with it on all sides. Packing
down the soil in the row with the
fiat side of hoe or with a board or
with the broad, fiat planter wheels in
the field helps the seed to absorb
moisture and so hastens termination.
In a heavy, sticky clay soil there is
usually plenty of moisture. but air is
often lacking. If such soil is pack
ed down too tightly over the seed the
particles are forced so closely together
that very little air can get through,
and hence termination is delayed. In
a soil of this kind seeds should never
be planted very deeply.
The most important factor of all is
warmth. A cold soil may have
moisture and air in exactly the right
amounts, and still the seed will not
start to develop. Even If it does be-
gin to grow progress will be slow, and
the plant will have weak unhealthy
look. 1t is of the utmost Importance
to wait until the seed bed is warm
before planting the seed. Many seeds
which would rot or produce only
spindling stalks if planted in cold
soil will grow into strong plants if
planting is delayed until the soil has
become warm. Any seed will make a
stronger. better producing plant if 1t
has warm seed bed to start from.
The rapidity with which soil will
warm up in the spring depends great
deal upon the nature Of the soil itself
A sandy soil warns up quickly be
cause the air can get down into 1t
easily, thus warming it all the way
through at once. Another reason for
the higher temperature of sandy soil
is its greater dryness. AS long as wa.
ter is evaporating rapidly the ground
will be cold. The process Of evapora-
ton requires great deal of heat.

bunch of leaves so small that you
may have difficulty in making them
out. Farther on, at the end of the
bean, is the stubby root, or radicle.
These different parts are found in ev-
cry seed, no matter how small.
Now that you have seen what is in
the bean, examine a pumpkin seed in
the same way. 1t is much the same
inside as the bean. only fiatter. The
hilum is at the pointed end. and the
plumule is SO small that you may not
he able to see it at all. In these two
seeds there are only two main parts
the seed coat and the little plant By
far the greater part of the room inside
the seed coat is taken up by the f1eshy
seed leaves.
Now let us look at q different kind
Of seed. Take kernel of corn that
has been soaked for several hours and
cut it in two lengthwise the narrow
way The back of the grain is made
up in part of hard finty substance
and in part Of white mealy layer. A
large part of the front of the kernel is
| taken up by the soft. oily germ.
| Look at the cut section of the germ
carefully. The little plant can be
made out very plainly. The little
pointed stem which points upward and
outward is the cotyledon. There is
only one cotyledon in corn instead Of
two, as in the other seeds you have
examined. If you will take cotyledon
Of corn plant that has been left in a
warm place until it has commenced to
grow and cut 1t in two lengthwise you
will see that the inside is packed with
layers Of tiny leaves ready to unfold
as soon as their turn comes. This is
the plumule. The other parts of the
little corn plant you will be able to
make out with little trouble.
You have doubtless been wondering
what the rest Of the kernel. the part
back Of the germ, is for. While it Is
not a part of the plant itself. it is Of
very great use to it, as we shall see.
The little plant when it begins to
grow must have food. At first It has
no roots to get this food from the SOIL
so it must get it's nourlshment from
some other source. This source is the
part of the kernel outside Of the germ
itself, or the endosperm. In the pump
kin seed and the bean the endosperm
and the cotyledons are the same-that
is, the food material is stored In the
large. f1shy seed leaves
This food material consists largely

1T PAYS TO INOCULATE FOR
CRIMSON CLOVER.
A Comparison Of Results Obtained OH
Fields where InOculated Soil Was
Applied and on Those Where II
Was Not.

Messrs. Editors: Crimson clover
being leguminous plant must have
incubation to do we'll on most soils
incubation produces the germs that
enable 1t to get the nitrogen 1t needs
from the air. There are three ways
of inOculating soil. One way is to
continue clover on the same land for
a series Of years until it gets the soil
we'll filed with the necessary germs.
This is a tedious and rather slow and
expensive way. Another way is to
get the incubation from a prepared
culture. This must be carefully
handled to be successful. Still anoth-
er. and by far the cheapest and sur
est method. Is by spreading soil from
a we'll inoculated clover field over
the surface of newly sown clover
patch and narrowing it in. If only
poor stand Of clover is obtained
the first season. or if part of it fails
to do WELL seed should be sown
again the next year on the same soil.
BY these repeated sowings the clover
gets better every year and soon has
the desired incubation.
