Cape-Dut he had WeatheTed the
storm. In the large city the
chances were that they would
never meet.
Yet the next morning he found
a letter upon his table which set
the blood hurrying through his
veins. Too well he knew that
writing. He opened it slowly,
fighting down the impulse to
fling it into the fire unread.
Dear DR.. Hamlin," it began.
ct want to see you, to thank you
for saving Ronald's life. Will
you forget and forgive every
thing that has passed? I cannot
rest until I have your forgiveness.
Now all my views have changed.
MIRIAM"
That was a1l-Miriam. He
thought of Keith, the meditative
bookworm, inhabiting the fine
house at the other end Of the
town. So she had never loved
him and now thought to take up
their old friendship again. How
womanlike, to play with fire. But
he would not burn his fingers. He
knew that, once he set eyes on
Miriam again all the old passion
would spring into life, all the en-
bers would blaze, and the six
years of struggle would have
gone for nought.
The house of the Keiths was
opposite the park-four miles
away from the dingy, o1d-fash-
toned quarter in which St. Marks
was set. Hamlin had not been
near the place for years. Yet

the place which had been forbid

And at last, toward the cool of
the afternoon, he found himself
seated upon bench facing the
Keith mansion, dreaming vain
dreams. He remembered that
spot well; there Miriam and he
had sat together when they plan
ned their bridal tour. They were
to 60 to Florida and the Bermu-
das; afterward they were to have
taken a modest house not far
from where they sat discussing
their plans with the foolish hap
Piness of lovers.
He had been dreaming for half
an hour when he was suddenly
recalled to himself. A quiet, elder

him. The face seemed familiar.
The man stretched out his hand.
Are you not DR.. Hamlin, sir?"
he asked. eyes, I was sure I

Indeed I do, Mr.. Keith said

MIXTURE FOR TREE WOUNDS
Large Limb Cut Of, With Stub Left
Unprotected, Furnishes Excellent
Hiding Place for Fungi.

In California the following mixture
was used on trees three years ago
and Is still in good condition.: One
part of crude petroleum to three
parts of resin; warm In separate
dishes, mix and apply warm to cuts
made by pruning or by cultivator In
jury. While this mixture Is not bet
ter than grating wax. 1t is much
cheaper and is worthy Of trial.
II owners of trees would realize
the importance OF keeping the bark
whole and unbroken on their trees
and treat all wounds promptly, they
would save much loss from so-called
wound fungi" which are ever abun-
dant and ready to take possession
and cause decay. Wounds that should
be treated are Of various origin, and
those to the body Of the tree are most
important, though injuries to large
limbs very often spread downward.
A large limb cut on. with the stub
left unprotected. supplies good
place for these fungi to enter, and
the end of the life Of the tree Is has
tened by the hollow body resulting
from decaying branches. Branches
are injured at picking time by boot
heels and ladders; winds break
branches; hailstorms and sunscald
rupture the bark. and the bodies OF
the trees are often bruised by wagons
or other farm tools.

PROFIT FOUND IN KINDNESS
Speak to q Cow 40 You Would to a
Lady-Personai Equation Gives
Advantage TO Hand-MII liking.

Too few breeders and dairy farm
ers give the needed recognition to
the basis on which the dairy indus
try Is founded-the motherhood OF
the animal furnishing the milk. One
OF the most successful OF the early
Wisconsin dairymen had for his
motto, Speak to a COW as you would
to a lady" and when he was asked
II he removed his hat when entering
the stable door in the morning, he
replied that he certainly would do so
IL he thought he could get more milk
thereby. writes a contributor to Farm
and Home.
What owner, especially In testing.
has not noticed that some one OF his
mixers was able to get more milk
from the cows than were the other
mixers? 1t Is the personal equa-
ton, the regard the COW has for her
attendant, that gives hand milking
an advantage over the machine; and
the more nearly the COW has adopted
her mixer in the place Of her calf,
the greater will be his success as
mixer. There Is usually vast diff
ference In results between the mixer
who gets a COW into position by push
ing the leg of the stool into her flank
and then kicks her Cd the shin to
make her step back, and the one who
gains the same end with patience and
gentleness. Who can blame the cow
for wanting to kick the first man?
Aside from the knowledge of how
to feed In general and the study OF
the special wants of the individual
cows. to attain the greatest success
a man must win the affection Of the
cows. Some will say that this cannot
be done. But II the calf and growing
yearling is treated gently and kindly,
and then Is stabbed and handled before
freshening like COW, there will be no
such thing as breaking the heifer to
milk; she will take it as the regular
thing.

FORECAST OF FUTURE COWS
Constitution and Capacity Can Only
Be Obtained by Supplying Need.
ed Building Requirements.

(By w. A. BARR. United States Division
Of Dairying. Colorado Agricultural
College.)
The best forecast of the future
dairy COW is the number of pounds OF
feed received from weaving time
until two years of age. The ration
between the productive capacity of
the COW and the care given her dur
ing the growing period is quite con.
slant. Constitution and capacity can
only be gotten by supplying the nee
essary building requirements. Large.
strong cows are the results of care
while heifers. The dairyman must
be both a breeder and feeder. I'm.
proper feeding defeats the very OBJ
ject sought by breeding. The dairy
COW Is a highly-specialized animal,
and, like all specialized animals, there
is a tendency toward reversion, this
tendency increasing with the more
highly developed and improved ami.
NAL. Scant feeding causes as rapid
reversion toward the unimprovcd
type as does careless breeding.
The animal must adapt itself to
it's surroundings. and reversion is no
more than adaptation 80 IL the food

There was one Disappointment for
those who attended the wedding, for
the gifts were not put on display. 1t
is known that these included many
beautiful and valuable articles sent
by relatives and personal friends of
the bride and groom and of their fam
lilies and by admirers of President
Wilson. Handsome presents were
sent by both the senate and the house,
that of the latter being a diamond la
valliere which Miss Genevieve Clark,
daughter of the speaker, bought for
the representatives in New York.
Guests Limited to 400.
Those who were invited to witness
the wedding were mostly personal

AS might be expected, the streets
outside the White House were as

the arrival and departure OF the guests
and trying to obtain through the win

PEACH ScAB AND BROWN ROT
Mixture Of seIf-BoIIed Limo and Sui
phur 10 Best Known Cure for
the Control Of Disease.

The self-boiled lime and sulphur
mixture is the best fungicide known
at the present time for the control Of
peach scab and brown rot. Three ap-
plications are considered necessary
for good results where peach scab Is
likely to occur. The first application
is to be made just as the calyx Is
being shed from the fruits.
The second application to be made
three weeks after the first. The third
application should be made about
three weeks after the second. The
self-boiled lime and sulphur mixture
should not be applied to the fruit
within four weeks Of the ripening
time, as the mixture may give the
fruit whitewashed appearance when
ready for market.
