poN'Te FOR SWEET PEA GROW.
Frs.

Don't have the soil too rich in nitro
gen. Your plants will run to vines
rather than to flowers.
Don't use too fresh manure. The
finer and more broken the better.
Spade it in well.
Don't forget to mulch the rows in
hot dry weather. This will greatly
prolong bloom.
Don't sow sweet peas two seasons
in succession in the same place. Re.
suits will never be so good. Sow some
of the Giant Towering type.
Don't let the plants run to seed. It
will soon exhaust your flowers.
Don't be afraid Of picking. Daily
attention in this respect is necessary
to big blossoms and plenty Of them.
Don't plant in the shade. If possible
the rows should run north and south
to get both morning and afternoon
sun.
Don't forget to mix plenty of fine
manure with soil that is clayey to
prevent baking.
Don't water in dribbles. Use enough
to soak the soil, then stop watering
until the earth begins to look dry.

he caressed the barrel of his weapon.

Shoot he said. IF you move your

The time of death had come. Mrs.
Brown realized this. She commenced
to pray.
Dear God, protect me in my hour
Of danger this holy Saturday."
Barth interrupted her with an oath,
but the woman kept steadily on:
But if my life's course has run,
forgive me, forgive him, this man."
Suddenly Barth sprang forward The
revolver exploded, the bullet blowing
the woodwork of the ceiling, while the
weapon fell to the floor.
Barth uttered fearful cry. His
body commenced to wrftAe as If
turned by some huge, invisible lathe.
The tendons of his frame cracked and
stretched, while blood spurted from
under his finger nails. The arm which
had held the pistol was suddenly
raised on high, and as the fingers
twisted about, the limb shriveled to
the size of chtld's. He then fell to
the floor and lay still, his whole body,
with the exception of the eyelids para
lyzed.
At the hospital it was found that
Barth is unable to talk. The mysteri-
GUS power which saved Mrs. Browns
life has silenced the assassin's tongue
It is thought by the doctors here that
Barth will never recover any of his
faculties, although the brightness of
his eyes show that his mental powers
are as active as ever.
This means that the man is doomed
to living tomb as long as the faint
spark Of life glows in his powerless
frame.
Mrs. Brown says that she never
heard her husband speak of Barth,
either in this country or New York,
whore they lived in former years.

YOUR OWN PEACH ORC HARD.
Is Possibility Nearly Everywhere u
Soil Needs Of Trees Are
Studied.

There are scores of communities In
which half Of the residents grow their
own peaches and the other half buy
or lament the fact that they can't
grow peaches.
Peaches are in a way fitful, yet the
chances are that many of those who
bewail their location might have as
many as their neighbors by exercising
q little care.
The majority of the little orchards
are natural fruit. Whether it pays to
depend upon this with budded trees
now so cheap is question worth con.
aidering; but it certainly pays much
better than to do without fruit.
It was once thought that only sandy
soil would grow peaches. They have
succeeded nicely on stiff clay If well
enriched and cultivated. A sandy OF
clayey loan is preferable, and must
not be too highly fortified, as the
peach is naturally q quick-growins
tree.
A hillside, naturally well drained.
Is a favored location for peach trees.
The frost does not strike them so
readily as on lower ground. But be.
ware OF too sunny exposures, or else
the first warm days will coax out the
buds, to be blasted by frost.
AS peach trees develop and mature
rapidly, they are correspondingly
short lived, and the owner Of a good
orchard to-day must plant new trees
for few years hence. It IL a con-
slant succession Of growth and decay.
No more satisfactory field can be
chosen for investigation la Burbank.
and it is along a line which IL sure to
prove profitable, though no world.re.
nowned variety may be evolved.
If peach growing is an experiment,
1t is perhaps wise to restrict it mainly
to seedlings. Should it prove a sue.
cess in your orchard, you will want to
add some nursery stock, which is,
save In some stray instances, of bet.
ter quality.
For market purposes named fruit
only is salable, and the surplus, even
though small, will balance up on the
sugar used in home consumption. This
alone is quite an item.
In selecting nursery trees, choice

Choose freestones for the main
crop. The. yellow-fleshed varieties are
the best sellers, and as a rule the best
for canning. Early Crawford is one
Of the best early varieties. Elberta
stands high in the list for the main
crop.
1t is easy to put the pits Of some
choice fruit into a bag and let them
freeze, thus helping the germs to
break forth, and then plant in some
suitable place, Seeding bearing fruit
in very few years.
Seedlings differ from the parent, but
as rule the finer the peach selected
for seed the better the quality of the

FOR BETTER DIRT ROADS.

With a sandy soil and subsoil Of
clay or clay and gravel plow deep so
as to raise and mix the clay with the
surface soil and sand.
The combination forms sand-clay
road at a trifing expense.
If the road be entirely of sand q
mistake will be made if it is plowed,
unless clay can be added.
Such blowing would merely deepen
the sand, and at the same time break
up the small amount of hard surface
material which may be formed.
If the subsoil is clay and the sur
face scant in sand or gravel, plow-
ing should not be resorted to, as 1t
would result in clay surface rath-
er than one of sand or gravel.
A road foreman must know not
only what to ploW and what not tc
pillow, but how and when to plow.
If the road is of the kind which
according to the above instructions
should be plowed over its whole width
the best method is to run the first
furrow in the middle of the road and
work out the sides, thus forming
crown.
Results from such blowing are the
greatest in the spring or early sum-
mer.
In bitches a plow can be used tol
good advantage, but should be foil
lowed by a scraper or grader.
To make wide, deep bitches nothingI
better than the ordinary drag scraper
has yet been devised.
