his attention 10 an inside pocket. I'm
patiently he pulled out a pair OF long
and he now remembered she had Civ
en- them to him to carry he night
before, on the way home from a re
ception, she having removed them
because it vas raining. He looked
at them with a sudden inspiration
of that? He hurried into his sisters
room to make a selection of a few
necessities for the emergency-only
to have his assurance desert him at
the very threshold. The room was
immaculate, with no feminine tinery
lying about. Cornelia Dunham's maid
was well trained. The only article
that seemed out of place was a band

SPRAYING FOR SOUND FRUIT
Experiments in Missouri Sho" ina'
Practically All ~Unsprayed Fruit Is
Ruined by Disease.

The man who still clings to the idea
that spraying does not aid in the pro
duction of fruit should be convinced
by the report of w. L. Howard OF the
Department of Horticulture Of the Uni
versity of Missouri. By taking or
chards here and there over the state
of Missouri, Prof. Howard has just fin.
ished a series Of experiments that
show hat practically all unsprayed
fruit is ruined by diseases or Insects
In one orchard where a part was
sprayed and a part was left unsprayed,
only IL per cent Of the Arkansas
black apples could be Classed as clean
fruit after the trees had been left I'M
sprayed. In the same orchard, where
the same brand of apples had been
sprayed, the crop of clean fruit was
1877 per cent. Another orchard OF
Missouri pippin apples experimental
with the same way resulted in Il
clean fruit for the u~nsprayed part and
SS.5 for that part which was sprayed.

the name of a Fashionable milliner,
and across the lid was penciled in
Cornelia's large, angular hand, ITO
be returned to Madame DOllard's.'
He caught up the box and STROBE
over 70 the closet. There was no
time tO lose, and this box doubtless
contained a hat of some kind. If it
was to be returned, COrnelia would
think it had been called for, and no
further inquiry would be made about
the matter. He could call at Mad
ame's and settle the bill without his
sisters knowledge.
He poked back into the closet and
discovered several wraps and evening
cloaks of more or less elaborate
style, but the thought came to him
that perhaps one of these would be
recognized as Cornelia's. He closed
the door hurriedly and went down to
a large closet under the stairs, from
which he presently emerged with his
mothers new black rain-coat. He
patted his c~oat-pocket to be sure he
had the gloves, seized his hat, and
hurried back to the carriage, the hat
box in one hand and his mothers
rain-coat dragging behind him. His
only anxiety was to get out before
the butler saw him.

FOR PRESERVATION OF FISH
Russian Claims He Has Method Which
10 Far Superior to Those at
Present In Use.

The preservation of fish is not a sub
1ect likely to be Of intense interest to
the average men, and let 1t Is n of
considerable practical Importance to
him. Few foodsaSs are SO prone to
rapid decay, and few r more lam
garous when in that condition. Pic
Killing and sailing, while reasonably
effective, seriously injure the natural
flavor Of the fish, when they don't &C
tually destroy 1t. Hence a new method
ct preservation which keeps h fish
fresh and sweet and of unchanged
flavor '.for weeks or even months" is
something of a discovery. This is
what Prof. A. ]. Danilevsky. a mem
Der OF the Imperial Academy of Rus
sia, Claims for his new method. And
hts claims have been considered OF
enough importance to be given an
ofncial test by the board OF agriculture
and fisheries In London, and also by
the Tull TraWlers, and Fish Merchants
association. A 16-day test, controlled

Feed plenty of sharp sand or grit

Systematic marketing will over

Pekin ducks do not make good sit

Good development before beginning
to lay is best for the pullet.
Ducks must have plenty of green

Impure water will not produce many
eggs of any kind, and none that are

Start with Pekins-they are the

Fewer and better birds, and all as

You must know that q duck has ne

cause it passes directly into the giz-

Eggs compared with wheat flour
contain about the same amount OF

We could not think of a more sim

the production of infertile eggs.

Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1913-12-12

seem to have stood the drouth especi'
ally well. Those were alfalfa and soy'
beans. The average yield was only a
few bushels lower than last year, per
haps one-fifth, while the decrease in
the yield of oats was about one-halt
less than the yield Of last year. Corn,
of course, is not yet harvested, but the
pros poets are that the yield will be
from one-third to one-half less. These
facts seem to be important ones for
farmers to consider. 1t would seem adj
visable that every farmer of the state
should have a good field of alfalfa and
a field Of %soybeans to meet Just such
an emergency as the one Of this year.
