Navy beans are being recon-.
mended as profitable crop for
North Dakota farmers. 1t is
claimed that crop of forty to
fifty bushels per acre can be
grown on this soil and the
price is two dollars per bushel
Beans can be planted in very
narrow rows-as narrow as can
be cultivated with convenience,
much closer than corn or pota-
toes. The crop requires about
four civilizations and the
machinery for blowing corn
can be used. The beans are
harvested with a special
machine, and after that are
handled something like flax
cut with-headers-or hay
and threshed. In addition to
the high value of the bean
crop-the vines make fine hay
for cattle. 1t is also contended
that the beans leave the soil in
excellent condition for follow
ing crops. The land is abso-
lutely cleaned in the same
manner as corn crop and the
beans enrich the soil, similar
to clover crop.

The teacher of a Sunday schooi
class in Wilkesbarre once put the
following question to a new scholar:
"What did Moses do for living
while he was with Jethro?"
There was a long silence, during
which the other members of the
class took occasion to "size up" the
newcomer. The latter, however,
was undismayed. After due rehec-
ton he answered.:
'Please, ma'am, he married ono

 This treatment is said to have acquired Q wonderful reputation throughout the East, owing to It's peculiar propensity to forti- fy the nerve force and generate health and a consequent person. al magnetism, so essential to the happiness of every normal human being.
