unbolted, she lay IN her bed In the dim
GLOW OF tho resding.lamp. with her
curling silvsry hair drifting across the
pillow and the letter beneath 1t, at
last the tears came coursing down her

And with the loosening Of her tears,

sense of betra, al. It poured upon her
like 4 trembling dood. Long. long ago

only his memory that counted to her.
Now that could no longer spell pain

ened by new Hight. and in that light
she would walk gently and smilingly
to the end.
She found the slender golden chain
that hung about her neck and opened
the little black locket with its circlet
of laureled pearls. And as she gazed at
the face it held, which time had not
touched with change. the sound Of
shirley's harp came softly in through
the window. She was playing an old
fashioned song, Of the sort she knew
her mother loved best:
Darling, I am growing old.
Silver threads among the gold
Shine upon my brow today:

But, my darling, you will be
Always young and fair to me.
Outside the leaves rustled, the birds
called and the crickets sang their I'M
ending epithalatnia of summer nights,
and on this tone-background the mel
ody rose tenderly and lingeringly like
haunting perfume Of pressed flowers.
She smiled and lifted the locket to her
face, whispering the words Of the re-
train:
Yes, my darling. you will DO
Always young and fair to me!
The smile was still on her lips when
she fell asleep. and the little Iocket
still lay in her fingers.

days and came home and was up
parently getting well. He came over
here the first of the week, accom-
panied by his wife to spend few
days with his brother, Mr.. j. H.. Scott.

Save the Bur and Crimson Clover
Seed.

During the next few weeks many
the usands Of acres of bur and crimson
clover will come to maturity, and il
is exceedingly important that ar
rangements be made now for saving g
big crop of clover seed. Last fall tho
demand, particularly for bur clover
far exceeded the supply and, as 4 re-
suit, toward the end of the season the
few seed available were quoted at s.
Il bushel.
In the South interest in these two
great soil-improving crops has been
greatly stimulated during recent
years, and the demand for seed this
fall will likely be far greater than
ever before. We know of many
farmers who failed to plant clover
last fall simply because the seed were
not to be had, and those of our read
ers who are growing clover should
arrange to help supply the cerainly
big demand next fall
We know one farmer who has re-
Gently bought for $25 clover huller
attachment for his ordinary thrcshing
machine. This attachment is manu-
factured by one of the largest imple-
ment concerns in the country. and is
guaranteed to do satisfactory work If
it proves entirely successful the way
to cheaper crimson clover seed seems
open. But even where q clover
Ter is not to be had, crimson clover
seed for home use may be saved by
hand and soWed chaff and all, using
per acre about three times the weight
of cleaned seed ordinarily used.
With bur clover no hulling is neces-
sary; in fact, it is really a disldvan-
tage, since the seed in the bur carry
inoculation. When the bur clover dies
early in May all that is necessary is
to rake away the stems and trash and
sweep up the clover seed. OF course
If the seed are intended for market
all dirt and trash should be screened
cut; but if they are to be used al
home this is not necessary.
The demand for clover seed next
fall will likely break all records; We
hope Progressive Farmer readers who
are already growing clover are pepar-
ing to aid in supplying this demand.-
