How the Rain Bores Holes.

When rain falls it does not actually
soak into the earth, but bores its way
H. forming tiny tubes, says the Reho-
both Sunday Herald These tubes are
SO small that 1t would be impossible
to insert hair in one of them with
out bursting its walls. Sometimes the
tubes are bored down to a depth of
four or five feet. When the surface
dries the water evaporates from the
tubes, just as 1t would from a pipe.
II the tube is twisted it takes longer
for the water to evaporate.
If one takes a rake and stirs the
ground after each rain he breaks the
tops of the tubes and the water will
stand In them for months. In this way
the farmers of the West, on semi-arid
lands, store the rainfalls one wear
and raise a crop Of wheat every other
year, there being sufficient water in
two years, but not enough in one. to
raise a crop.

May Bay Bridges.

Since the possibility of an electric rail
road between Frederick and Brunswick
there is a sentiment for The purchase of
the bridges spanning the Potomac al
Brunswick and Point of Rocks bv Lou
doun and Frederick counties. The
bridges cost about 100000. Brunswick
bridge paws about 5H per cent. on the
investment. less taxes. and the Point of
Rocks bridge about 4 pei cent free Of
taxes The idea is to eliminate the tolls.
Tor the reason that il is very expensive.
Many of the Virginia residents haul lime
from Frederick county and charges are
heavy.

How to Win an Author

There's no greater fallacy," said
an author at the New York Authors
club, than the popular one to the
effect that writer's don't like you to
talk to them about their work.
Mark Twain exploded this fallacy
wen when he said that there were
three ways of pleasing an author:
FIRST, to tell him that you have read
one OF his books; second, to tell him
you have read all his books. and, third,
to ask him to let you read the manu-.
script OF his forthcoming book. The
first way wins his respect, the second
wins his friendship, and the third wins
his love"

The seed should be sown at the rate
Of 25 to 80 pounGs per acre, and If a
hay crop is desired a bushel of wheat,
or one-half bushel of rye should be
sown with it, 1t should always be
sown broadcast. 1t may be sown
through the wheat compartment OF
the wheat drill and if small grain is
sown with it, the seed may be mixed
and sown together
Unless either vetch or garden peas
have been sown on the land it is not
safe to attempt growing il without in.
Oculation. The best way io inoculate
Is by the use of soil from where either
native or hairy vetch has grown sue.
cessfully.
There is on the market a variety
known as spring or common vetch.
Many claim it to be equal to~hairy
vetch, but this is not true. Common
yetch is an absolute failure in Mary
land and farmers should always de-
mand hairy vetch when buying seed.

writer designates as the Puritan pro-
tagonist Of feminism," is to have a

SOWING CRIMSON CLOVER WITH
GRAIN FOR HAY.
NICHOLAS SCHMITZ.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

Where 1t is desired to NOW crimson
clover for hay it is a good practice
to SOW with the clover a small grain
crop. On the Eastern Shore and in
Southern Maryland winter oats is best
suited for this, but wheat is nearly as
good. The grain prevents lodging TO
considerable extent, facilitates the cur.
Ing of the clover hay, in that the mix.
ture dries out quicker than the clo er
alone, and if cooked the small grain
sheds the water better The total yield
is also increased and while the hay is
lessened little in feeding value the
mixture is better suited to horses than
the clover alone. The best time to cut
the mixture is when the blossoms on
the clover begin to fall.
The rate of seeding for the mixture
is the usual amount of clover as when
seeding 1t alone, but the small grain
should be seeded at about half the
normal rate or little less.

hard hitting. Puzzled, like many 9th
ers who have fought Johnson, he felt
his own helplessness early in the fight
and realized that he was outclassed,
and from that time on he just stuck
it out. Moran deserves credit for his
gameness under punishment. But that
sort of gameness, without aggressive
fighting courage, doesn't win great
fights.
"Gunboat Smith has best right to
match with johnson. The gunner has
fought his way to the top of the class,
next to johnson. He has whipped
Langford-a thing no other fighter has
accomplished. He has beaten Moran,
Willard Morris and many others. He s

no other fighter will have much chance
