years a~fterward, is Anthems tine
toria Kelwayi. The plants are easily
started from seeds, grow a foot high
and bloom freely, the flowers being
Daisy-like, two inches across, and OF
a rich. golden color. A big plat OF
this elegant flower was in bloom at
one Of the seed gardens at Erfurt,
Germany. when the editor was there.
and it was a sheet of gold, gorgeous
beyond description.
This flower likes a sunny exposure
and rich, porous soil. The seedlings
may be raised in a window-box, hot
bed or garden bed, and transplanted
when large enough, setting the plants
eight inches apart each way. They
will thus cover the ground, and be-
come a glorious mass of flowers. Even
the foliage is beautiful, being of grace
fun form, elegantly cut or fringed,
says Parks Floral Magazine. The en
craving represents a plant in full
bloom, and will afford a good idea
of its foliage and towers. The seeds
may be obtained of most any repu-
table dealer at 5 cents per packet. 1t
is always greatly admired by those
who are fond of golden lowers.

EVIDENTLY HAD HIS DOUBTS
Olfactory Evidence offered up by
Serious Minded Old-Time
Circuit Rider.

A typical old-time circuit rlder
died recently in Alabama man
whose cody, unselfsh life will long
be remembered. Many were the &C.
centricities of this rugged old man,
and many anecdotes are current
among the Methodist ministers or the
state concerning him. He was noted
for two things-his denunciation OF
sin in no uncertain tones, and the
familiarity with which he addressed
the Lord In prayer.
On one occasion he had beer
preaching in a log meeting house IN
the piny woods Of north Alabama
There were several young fellows on
hand who had been celebrating by
patronizing a still hard by. After a
long, fiery sermon. the preacher maze
a call for mourners, and soon the rude
altar was filled mostly by the afore
mentioned young fellows. The old
man looked them over for a moment
and with keen intuition felt that 1t
was perhaps a lark on the boys
part, but he knelt to pray.
20 Lord" he began. heres a crowd
Of young fellows kneeling round your
altar. They've been cussin' and swear
In and drinkin' and spendin' thelr
time in riotous livin', but they've come

you'll forgive 'em If they are; but, Q

GROWING OF SUMMER APPLES
Department Of Agriculture Makes
Study Of Industry in fiddle
Atlantic States.

On nearly every farm summer ap-
pies have had a place since very early
days, and varieties have been develop
ed extending the season of apple pro-
duction owe the entire summer, as
well as autumn. While as a rule this
fruit has been crown for family con-
sumption. the surplus has found Its
way to market. The marked decline
in the production OF peaches within
the past few years has brought about a
considerable extension of the early
apple industry on a commercial scale,
which extension has been most mark
ed In the middle Atlantic states, where
especially advantageous t~ransporta-
ton routes, both rail and water, and
the proximity Of large markets have
stimulated the enterprise, which has
its center in the truck-producing re-
gion near Philadelphia. The United
States department of agriculture, as a
result Of this extension, has made a
study Of the early apple industry, with
the middle Atlantic states as a field,
and published the information collect
ed in a bulletin entitled Summer APP
pies in the Middle Atlantic States" Is
sued by the bureau of plant industry.
This bulletin is a compendium of in
formation covering all phases of the
question Of early apple production, in
GLIDING soils, climate. culture, picking.
packing, marketing, etc. Numerous
varieties are described, and seasons
and other data conveniently presented
in tabular form.

HEAD SOLID MASS OF HUMOR

II think the Cuticura Remedies are
the best remedies for eczema l have
ever heard of. Ny mother had a child
who had a rash on its head when it
was real young. Doctor called 1t baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but 1t
did no good. In a few days the head
was a solid mass; a running sore. 1t
was awful, the child cried continually.
We had to hold him and watch him
to keep him from scratching the
sore. His suffering was dreadful AT
last we remembered Cuticura Rene
dies. We got a dollar bottle OF Cutf-
cura Resolvent, a box Of Cuticura
Ointment, and a bar Of Cuticura Soap
We gave the Resolvent as directed,
washed the head with the Cuticura
Soap, and applied the Cuticura ONT
ment. We had not used half before
the child's head was clear and free
from eczema, and it has v come
back again. His head was healthy
and he had a beautiful head of hair.
I think the Cuticura Ointment very
good for the hair. 1t makes the hair
grow and prevents falling hair

Place the pot bottom side up on a
board that is three inches wider than
the diameter of the largest pot used
and fasten it to the board with wood
cleats and brass screws. Fit the
cleats to the sides of the pot as close

used, as shown in the sketch.
The board on which the pots are
fastened is nailed or screwed to a post

turned and rode slowly back toward

Prof. Griswold and Miss Osborne
were silent until the forest again shut
them in.
Then, in a sequestered spot, Girls
void suddenly threw up his head and
laughed long and loud.

Appleweight?' asked Barbara.
Not for a minute! They told us
that story merely to annoy us when
they found what we were looking for.
That touch about the wine cellar is
Enthusiastically Ardmoresque. If
they had Appleweight you may be
sure they wouldn't keep him on the
premises"
Whereupon they rode back to Tur-
ner Court House much faster than
they had come.

Tree Culture.

II trees need. anu it may be put
on any time during the winter or to-
ward spring. The quantity should be
regulated by the condition of the soil
and the apparent needs Of the trees, as
shown by growth. If the manure is
coarse, the ground may usually be
covered out a few feet beyond the
ends of the branches, and II the trees
are large, the entire surface of the
ground may be covered with benefit
The more straw in the manure, the
better it is for the purpose.

The Prisoner In the Corn-Crib.
Jerry and Ardmore sat at a long
table in the commodious Ardsley H.
brary, which was a modification of a
Gothic chapel. A large accumulation
of mail from the governors office at
Raleigh had been forwarded, and Jer-
ry insisted that it must be opened and
disposed Of In some way. Gov. Dan
gerfield was, it appeared, a subscriber
to a clipping bureau, and they a
been examining critically a batch of
cuttings relating to the New Orleans
incident.
.It's a good thing we got hold of
Collins" observed Ardmore. putting
down q clipping from a New York
paper in which the reports OF Gov.
DangerHeld's disappearance were ana
lyzed and tersely dismissed; for he

his little singers for Osborne are the

Hill Strawberries.

Experiments made at the Pennsyl-
vania experiment station show that all
hill strawberries are not larger and
better formed than those grown in
matted rows. provided the matted
row is a narrow one. Both hills and
matted rows produced fruit somewhat
inferior to that from narrow mat
ted rows. 1t is evident that different
soil conditions and cultural methods,
especially in the matter Of manuring,
would change these results somewhat
more favorably to the hill system.
