keen realization of his feeling for her.
and he began 10 understand the large
part she played in his life. Many
things inclined him to believe that her
re ~ard for him was really deeper than
her careless levity indicated and IT
seemed now that they had been destined
for each other.
1t was dusk when he reached his
destination. A nondescript Italian girl
ushered him I'D a dark stairway ana
into an old-fashioned drawing room
with high ceiling and. long windows
which opened out UPON rusty over
hanging iron balcony. The room ran
through to a court in the rear, after the

He paused, for the girl had given
smothered cry, The light was poor,
and the shadows played tricks with his
eyes. He stepped forward, peering
strangely at her, then halted.
"Margherita" he whispered; then in
a shaking voice, MY Cod"

He touched her gently, staring as If

swept by q tremendous excitement. 1t
struck him dumb. 1T shook him, it set
the room whirling dizily. The place
was no longer ill-lit and shabby, but
Illuminated as if by a burst of light.
And through his bad panic of confusion
he saw her standing there, calm, tawnY
self-possessed.

Rotation of CROPS
The worst possible place 70

The worst possible place for
a seed to be planted is just be-
meath the plant which produc-
ed it. Nature is generally
found giving wings to the
seed or making other arrange
ment to have the seed planted
elsewhere. The general law
holds good that there can be
no ground worse adapted to its
growth than ground on which
the same sort of plant has
grown before. The soil that
has just grown wheat. for ex-
ample, is not well adapted to
the growing of more wheat.
Hence farmers have long prac-
iced rotation in planting their
crops without bothering them
selves to know the reason.
subsequently came the explain
alton Of this need for rota-
ton. Plants take certain ma
tarials from the ground, diff
ferent plants taking different
materials. When wheat had
grown in a certain field the
soil of that field was practical
Iy exhausted of the material
needed for the. formation Of
wheat. On that field during.
the next year corn might find
all the nourishment it needed,
but wheat would starve for
lack of food. Such was the
philosophy of rotation that
went unquestioned for years
and farmers governed them
selves accordingly. If lack of
food were the trouble the in
ference was clear as to what
should be done, namely, to feed
the soil with a fertilizer that
contained the needed food, or
else rotate the crops.
Today a different explana-
ton is given by experts, and
a different treatment recon-
mended. When the agricultuF-
al department at Washington
came to analyze the soil on
which wheat had been grown
that year they found it still
contained food for the growing
wheat plant in abundance. 1t
was evident that the failure of
wheat to thrive upon this
ground was certainly not due
to starvation. Hence the
feeding the soil with fertiliz-
ers containing food for the
plant was a mistake, showing
how necessary it is to be sure
of ones ground.
That plants pollute the soil
is now the theory. Not that,
they subtract food from the
soil, but that they add to it
injurious elements is the phil
osophy of rotation at present.
Wheat, for instance, in its
growth sends out into the
earth certain waste materials
which load the soil and event.
ually make it poisonous to the
sort of plant which threw out
the waste products. other
plants may be unaffected by
the specific wastes of wheat
and so may be able to live in
this ground, which in turn
they load with their own
wastes.
After three years the waste
products have been 1 eliminat-
ed, and the field is ready for
wheat again. If this view be
correct new remedies must be
found. AS in medicine, treat
ment depends upon diagnosis.
With a change of diagnosis
comes a change of treatment. I
The government is spending
immense sums to aid the
farmers in their all-important
work and no cultivator Of the
soil in this land can afford to
neglect the information fur
nished for the asking by the
foremost talent of the day. No
farmer can justify his neglect
of such help, and he should

This effort was a failure. The
service became worse and worse.
The real value of the road was,

The permission was granted,
the notes were issued and Morgan
himself bought them, making
$500, 200 on the deal and receiv-

money trust until they are almost
dry-not quite, but Almost.

Is the first railroad to be sucked
so efficiently and so effectively
that 1t is kiln-dried.
The Pere Marquette Is so far
gone that there's no more watered
stock or bonds in it for Wall
street, while the service to the
people of Michigan is so bad that
freight wagons are beginning to
rival it.
Now, what is to be done with a
kiln-dried, bloodless, helpless rail-
road?
That's a burning question in
Michigan today.
In the early days, Michigan was
spider-webbed with small rail-
roads, mostly built with the CAPT

These were gradually merged into
