firmly of the opinion that those VINO
don't believe his way are in the grip
of moral error The only jest that was
ever made about him was by the Rev.
DR.. Van Allan of Boston, who once In
troduced him at banquet as different
from Moses, for when Moses touched
the rocks the springs gushed forth, and
when Day touched the springs, the
rocks gushed forth
He was born in Whitneyville, Me-,
in 1916, took degrees wherever he
could find an unprotected college, be-
came a clergyman, and at one time had
a pulpit in New York, and has been
chancellor OF Syracuse university
since 1894. He was elected a bishop of
the Methodist church, but resigned,
preferring to remain at the head of the
college He is a. tremendously able man
a very dynamo in breeches, severe, un-
bending-although popular opinion
holds that he bends freely enough
when there is a millionaire in sight-a
good speaker and an implacable judge.
And his opinions are convictions, not
subject to alteration.

The short coat is with lis again. Be
cause of the long reign of the long

favor the shorter one.
The cutaway style will be very pop

about to the Waistline, where the coat
closes with two large buttons. The

When ready to bleach. boards may be
placed close to each side of the rows,
Or the plants may be wrapped in Ma
Mia paper and the dirt drawn up about
them The plant requires a great deal
of moisture and care must be taken
to protect it from drought in every way
possible
If the celery plant is upon rich peaty
soil only small amounts of nitrogen
need be applied, but on clay nitrogen
can be used quite literally. Potash,
however, should be one of the main in
gradients of the fertilizer which IS
used upon peaty soils The plant is not
a heavy user of phosphoric acid The
formula which is suggested as likely
to give good results on clay soils is:
nitrogen four per cent: potash eight
per cent, and on peat soils two per cent
nitrogen, 10 per cent potash and five
per cent available phosphoric acid.
The above fertilizer may be used at
the rate of 1900 to 1000 pounds per
acre Like asparagus, this crop is a
very profitable one when grown under
the proper conditions. While a large
part of both asparagus and celery is
grown in large tracts in California, yet
there are many places along the bottom
lands in which both of these crops
could be proftably grown on a smaller
scale by a general farmer who has
somewhat of an aptitude for market
gardening.

Celery Culture

For the most successful results with
this highly priced vegetable there
should be selected a rather moist, peaty
soil, black and rich. While the soil
would perhaps be called a mari soil, yet
it should be thoroughly drained. This
plant is not adapted to a very wide
range of soils. although it may be sue
cessfully grown upon clay soils under
which circumstances the flavor is
usally better than when the plant is
grown upon peaty soils; the yield,
however, not being so large unless the
crop is highly fertilized. The plant will
not stand drought and wherever there

she came out, Miss Gould has had a
host of admirers, any one of whom
would have been glad to confer his
name upon her, not alone because of
her wealth, but because she is easily
among the most beautiful and talented
of the marriageable young women in
American society.

Auto Coat for Spring.

At the first suggestion of spring the
auto enthusiast begins making prepar-
atoms for long jaunts to the country,
shore or mountains. Naturally a wo-
man thinks of her clothes, and of all
things stylish useful wrap she shall
have. Model 1866 is just the sort of a
coat you will want for motoring Even
if you are not the proud possessor of a
car, the coat will appeal to you for it's
style and general usefulness. 1t is
really an indispensable garment and
may be worn on many occasions. The
lines are particularly good. The coat
fits the figure smoothly and perfectly
and has a style quite it's own.

Russian blouse coats are heralded as
favorites in the world of fashion. 1t is
not surprising that they are, for they
possess both the Qualities of style and
becomingness. Model $3.50 is a parti-
cularly smart one and the home dress
makes will appreciate the simplicity
of it's construction. The inumerable
STYLES of coats must have many fea-
lures in common and it is somewhat
of a relief to find design that is en-
TREY new and distinctive.
One of the features to be considered
this spring is the closings of the coats
Both the high closing, which reaches
to the neck, and the very deep closing,
beginning about the waistline, will be
