difference between this Hedgerow Strip and the
field it bordered The soil was blacker It did
not wash badly when rains came and held
moisture longer after they ceased Hence. the
corn did not parch badly in dry weather. The
plants, too were dark green in color, while on
the old land the corn looked pale and sickly
And when harvest time came there were big
vigorous stalks on the Hedgerow, many of them
bearing two proud ears, while in the open field
there only collection of shame-faced stalks
bearing Improbable nubbins The difference
was almost like that between the seven thin ears
OF corn blasted with the east wind and the seven
rank and full ears in Pharaoh's dream
With field like that Of the Hedgerow before
him, the Farmer might we'll exclam with the
Psalmist: 'The pastures are clothed with fiocks.
the valleys also covered over with corn:
they shout for joy. they also sing" But with a
crop like that in the older field he would saw
rather with the preacher Of Ecclesiastes: For
what hath man of all his labor and of the vex-
alton OF his heart wherein he hath labored under
the SUM-"
This Hedgerow set the Farmer to thinking
He began to inquire what made the Hedgerow
rich and the field poor. the Hedgerow fruitful
money-making piece Of land, and the larger
field unfrutful. barely returning wages for the
hard labor spent upon it.
And when he began to ponder upon the Parable
OF the Hedgerow. he was not long in learning
wisdom. The Hedgerow SOIL he said is filled
with humus; 1t is rich: but why should not the
whole field be kept equally rich? The Hedge
row soil has simply gotten back each year the
oft and
From time to time trees have been cut off it, so
that some of the mineral matter in the soil has
been removed yet 1t is going on getting richer
and richer. This is because plants are always
breaking up and utilizing the mineral matter in
the soil; and IL in addition to having this almost
endless supply OF matter to draw upon, the soil
can get back each year (either directly in the
form of leaves. rotten sticks, etc, indirectly
in the form OF barnyard manures) the life-giving
humus or vegetable matter it develops. 1t will
never wear out. and get richer and richer all the
time
Moreover, the Farmer continued, it is because
Of this humus that the Hedgerow does not wash.
The vegetable matter and sponge-like soil hold
the moisture, SO that 1t does not thirst for anoth-
er rain as quickly as one has passed. like this old
mistreated field; and again this sponge-like soil
holds together and does not wash out like the
lifeless granular soil in the big field, from which
the humus has long been exhausted.

Having gone this far, the Farmer found him
self face to face with the big problem suggested
by these preceding reflections. Why, he asked,
can not the other field be kept always in the same
sort Of prime Hedgerow conditions? 1t soon
began to dawn upon him that with good farming
this is exactly what would happen, and 1t is sim

TROLLEY DIGGERS
 FIND SKELETON
Mysterious Discovery at Sachem's Head Gives Rise to Ancient
 Legends

GuilfOrd, Aug. 2.-While workmen were toiling in the routine work of excavating along the right of way for the new Shore Line electric railway in the vicinity of Sachem's Head, the pushers of modern progress came upon something that became the fruitful source for many conjecture of TO- nance and legend of days gone by. One of the diggers, like the grave dig ger in Hamlet, struck his spade down into a hard bony something. and stoop- ing down, picked up a skull. The skull is in fine state of preservation con- taining still the teeth, and with the bone in good shape. Conjecture start ed at once as to the possibilities of the age of the skull the guesses rang ing anywhere from two or three years to the idea that it might be the skull of an Indian warrior Or scout of the olden days before the white man rul- ed the continent.
 A few days later the remaining bones of the skeleton were found lying right by the spot where the skull was found From the peculiarities of the skull, which had high cheek bones and is thick and narrow and has strong jaw, comes the supposition that it might indeed be a skeleton of an In- dian. preserved for centuries perhaps in the sands. This recalled the legend which is still remembered in the vi- cinity of Sachem's Head that some where in the early 160Vs two hostile tribes made their battle-ground around Guilford and that the chief of the defeated tribe swan across Great Bay and was never seen again. The place where the skeleton was found is right in the vicinity of this great bay.
 The skull is now in the possession of H. c. Gillette of East Haven, who has charge of the construction work Selectman Leete thought the remains might be those of some worker in the old Brooklyn stone quarries where many rough men were brought to work from New York and where many dark deeds were done, according to the gossip of the day

without word. Whether Ricordo was pleased or annoyed because of Sprague's presence 1t was impossible to say. He showed no sign either way. While they were in the village they walked abreast, but after they had passed through the lodge gates, Sprague and Olive walked side by side, while Ricordo and MT. Castle maine came on behind. Sprague found himself strangely nervous when he realized that he was alone with Olive. It was he who had sent the letters which had been followed by such fatal results, and never since that time had he and Olive Castle maine spoken to each other.

South Norwalk, Aug 2.-Frequent thefts of garden produce and of pies and cakes from the kitchen and pam try of the home of Mrs. Benjamin Beers. in Westport, aroused both the ire and the curiosity of Mrs. Beers. A high fence surrounds the place and if seemed impossible that man or beast oculd accomplish the feat.
 After a long vigil Mrs. Beers was rewarded yesterday when she saw a deer vault the eight foot fence, and after cautiously approaching the kitchen, reach up and eat some green peas and half of a rhubarb pie which were up on the window sill.
