When the rape is about six inches

weeks, hogs may be turned in; the
rape, barley and oats should furnish
abundant pasture for about twenty
five shotes per acre. In the meantime
timothy and clovers are growing to

FERTILIZER ACTS. LIKE MAGIC
Manure Spreader 10 Modern Device
and Covers Soil to Depth Of
About an Inch.

/ saw today a man pitching into q
manure spreader stable manure from
a large pile in the field where it had
lain until 1t was partially rotted, and
where 1t has been stirred several
times with forks l was interested.
says writer in Green's Fruit
Grower, and waited for the man to
load his wheeled spreader drawn by
two horses, and saw him pass up and
down through the field several times
This manure-spreading machine is a
modern device.
1t spreads the manure more evenly
than any man can do the work, no
matter how careful or experienced he
may be. There was scarcely an inch
of soil on the field that was not COW
cred with q slight spread of manure,
the machine covering about eight feet
in width each time it crossed the
field.
But it would seem impossible that
such slight covering of manure
should have, as 1t does, such marvel
GUS effect upon the soil This .fertil-
izer really acts like magic. 1t is not
alone the fertility which the manure
contains which benefits the land. The
manure helps to set at work bacteria
In the soil, thus in a measure inocu-
lates the soil with helpful creatures
that continue their work Further
than this, the manure tends to loosen
the soil and to make 1t crumble easilv
under the pillow and harrow.

One of the simplest and quickest
ways Is to test between blotting pa

Of six-sevenths hundredweight of sui

those eight policemen just commits

not be quite so much of a joke as the
journalistic funny men seem to think
The popular conception of a police
woman was we'll expressed when the
Los Angeles chief provided Mrs. Alice
Stebbins Wells, one of the first wo-
men on city force, with nor badge.
He remarked that the token ought
to be ornamented with lace ruffles
But star with lace ruffles was Just
what Mrs. Wells did not want.

Ing traffic, his urbanity coupled with
force is the admiration of the world.

and women pursue calm current of

That Awful Boss

"Thc boss is cranky this morning
What a common complaint and yet
bosses are not cranky just for the
purpose Of making their employees
miserable as many seem to imagine.
They are cranky because the load
they are carrying is too heavy and a
part Of that load belongs to the very
individual who feels peeved and
abused.
OF course bosses are cranky. If they
did not have enough anxiety about
their business to get cranky when
things go amiss they would neve
have been at tho head, and this boss
with all faults, is pledged to pay y
dollar for SO many minutes work
whether he gets a penny out of it or
not and, if by chance, you &c unpaid
he is going to lie awake nights ad-
dressing unkind remarks to himself
for laundering.
The perfectly good boss who never
seems to mind if you are few min
utes late coming to work will not seeld
to mind either if your salary is a few
days late coming to you.
All bosses are cranky, sometimes,
because they do not know where the
weeks salaries are coming from; all
fathers are cranky sometimes, be-
cause they do not know where the
next pair of shoes for the rollicking
youngster is coming from.
So when your boss is cranky, re-
member he is good boss. He is
concerned about your interests as well
as his own and if you ever attain tho
hcighths of 'bossship" pray that you
will be good cranky one.
