kota farming is the getting rid Of
weeds, and there is no better way
to do this than by growing corn or
by summer following. In growing
corn, however, valuable crop is Sc.
cured, and it practically assures a
good crop the next year, if it is clean
cultivated Another practice that
some farmers have been trying is to
keep narrowing their grain until it
heads out, and they have done SO
with much success. This would
seem to be little rough on the grain
and it might be best to experiment
on a small piece first. Another Inn
portant consideration is the keeping
Of organic matter in the soil, as 1t
helps to hold the moisture in the soil
and helps to make plant food avail
able. One objection to the summer
fallow is that it allows the organic
matter in the soil to burn up and
none is added.
While the biggest crops in these
states were raised with irrigation,
yet a much finer quality is produced
by the dry farming methods and even
where they are irrigating they are
coming to the conclusion that the
less water they can apply and the
more than can conserve what falls
naturally by tillage the better the
results. Another thing to keep in
mind is to get the crops in early and
to grow early maturing crops and to
always ne prepared for dry season.
This is not peculiar to North Da-
kora. The writer remembers In his
boyhood daysthree successive years
of drouth in the state Of Wisconsin
when there was not enough wheat
grown on a 180acre farm to furnish
bread for a family and yet the rain
fall there is almost twice that of
North Dakota.

Bill Jones was an eccentric char

Ia South Carolina town. He was ex-
ceedtngly tall-so attenuated, in fact,
that but for his hat he would not

number of friends joined him in a
symposium, and many mint juleps
were consumed. One OF the party
unsteadily produced revolver. It
was accidentally discharged, and a
bullet struck Bill Jones in the leg.
Conscience stricken and wabbly with
excitement and juleps, the owner OF
the weapon fastened to the home of
the nearest doctor and pulled the
door bell. At length the physician,
who had himself been spending
riotous evening, stuck his head from
the second story window. "Whazza

Tact For Newly-Wed Women

Then their attitude toward the new

them tactfully she establishes her

against her ever doing so.
One OF the first things she has to

There being no further space for a
table at the church fair in which she
was anxious to help. she conceived
the idea of making big, stout apron
of denim. with plenty OF spacious
pockets. and going around with it,,
selling small toys to the visitors at the
bazaar.
No sooner thought that done The
apron was made of dark green denim,
reached to the knees, and was pro-
vided across the base with three
roomy pockets made in the deep turn
over of the hem by two straight lines
OF stitching. These divided the band
into three divisions. which were trim
med with triple row Of narrow white
braid Two smaller pockets were
made higher up. All of these pockets
were hastily ornamented by pictures
of Teddy bears. etc. outlined in thick
white floss. The apron was fastened
around the waist by two stout cords,
which helped support its weight
So great was the success OF this
plan with the children. who were too
