THE VALLEY OF TIE SHADOW.
TN the days that followed. while Bob
McAdoo lay battling with death.
his city learned what hold he
had taken on its heart. Perhaps
in its newly discovered love it unduly
magnitied his finer qualities. Perhaps
1t too generously overlooked the SIMS
ter episodes in his career. His death
had suddenly come to mean an ire
parable loss. his recovery the thing
most to be desired.
The newspapers daily gave minute
reports OF the progress of the disease.
In the street cars men read first the
account from his sickroom. 1t was the
6rst question they asked each other
when they met in street and corridor.
"What is the latest word from Nc
Adoo?' And when the discouraging
word was spoken they shook their
heads gravely. Prayers for his recov
cry were offered in the churches. As
his condition grew worse the news
papers--even those owned by his en-
emies-hung out hourly bulletins. Be-
fore these bulletins gathered great SOL
emn crowds.
There came a day when the news
offered no hope. He had suffered two
hemorrhages in quick succession. His
temperature had fallen far below nor

cowpeas sown at last cultivation.
When the corn is removed the
peas are disked in and the ground
sown to rye for a cover crop.
Second year, the cover crop is
turned under, followed by COW

are removed the ground is disked
and sown to wheat for the third
year crop. Glover is sown in
wheat for the fourth year crop.
If the clover fails, as it often
does, the ground is broken as
