THE BETTER MAN.
Story of Two Aspirants For Place on
 the Boat Crew.

Story of Two Aspirants For a Place on
 the Boat Crew.
 A few seasons ago, says a prominent crew coach in Outing, two men were competing closely fo: set in the varsity" boat. One day l called them together and said:
 "Just now you two men are working equally we'll in the boat, but one has a better scholarship standing than the other, and to me that seems to indicate that one of you has a little more per sonaI pride than the other"
 As a matter of fact, the man who was not up to the scratch in his work was bit the better of the two as far as smoothness in the boat was con cerned. I thought the incident might cause him to pick up in his classes. It did not. When the time came to make final selection of the eight I again called the pair in to see me.
 "It's still hard to decide between you two. I would just as soon have you throw coin to decide the winner," said.
 The man with the poor scholarship record was the first to speak.
 ''That's all right with me- he said.
 The other man thought for a minute. I saw his mouth go tight. Then he said:
 'No. sir; that doesn't suit me One of us must be the best man. 1 want to know which and to know why am not the best man.
 Some people would Eroably have thought that fellow conccitcd. but not if they knew what it means for a youngster to put in months #nI months of hard training for a crew. The sec ond man was of quiet type. but after he spoke I knew the thing that every coach is most anxious to find out-that he was the kind who would be pulling hardest when his lungs were feeling like bursting in that last hard half mile. You can guess which man got the place. The man who did not was too easily satisfied.

If paper upon which ensures of writing have been made is exposed to the vapor of iodine the roughened sur face takes different tint from that portion which has not been tempered with. If the erasure has been lightly made, only the ink or pencil lead be- ing rubbed away and the mark left in the fiber of the paper. iodine vapor causes the writing to reappear. This is because wherever the paper has been roughened more iodine Is absorb ed than by smooth surface. This test is effective within three minutes after the making of the alteration Exchange

MONSON.

Miss Louisa Wobbecke of the Silver street school is spending her summer vacation with her brother in Cleve- land, Ohio.
 James Dugan, who was one of 75 persons poisoned by eating food in Westerly, R. l., July ,, has recovered sufficiently to return to his home here.
 MT. and Mrs. Almon U. Thresher of Riverside, Gal, Dr. J. Beman Thresher of Amsterdam, N. Y., Rev. J. N. Thresher of Bridgeport, Conn.,, <, and Eben Thresher of Brighton, are the guests of MT. and Mrs. H. O.. Thresher at the old homestead at Stafford Village.
 ] Monson is credited with an increase in population of 15O persons since the official census taken in 1910. The official population in that year was given as 475S, while the enumerators count taken this spring shows 49OS. The difference comes entirely at the hospital for epileptics, where the number of people is constantly in creasing both in inmates and attend ants. The true population of Monson is not on the gain however. At present the industrial population is less than five years ago, and the death out numb Der the births each year, while the number of families moving into town and out about offset each other In other words, the town proper is at d standstill as far as population in- creases, or with slight unfa vora ble balance.
 The many friends of George H. Davis were very much grieved to hear of his death at his home near State Line Tuesday, the 14th. MT. Davis had been Tn ill health for about year, but within month had failed rapidly, the cause of his death being tuberculosis. He was GA years oll and was born in Holderness, N. H., and had lived in Monson for about years. He leaves a widow, Mrs. Margaret A. Davis. five brothers, Horace L., James, Scott, Frank w., Walter l.. and Charles E. Davis, and one sister, Nellie o. Davis To those of us who have had the privilege of knowing the genial deacon the news of his death causes sincere grief He was thoroughly good man "a sincere Christian gentleman. He loved chill dren and the k ids instinotively loved and trusted him. Men of his character make this better world, and the ex- tent of their influence cannot be estimated. Thrown is quiet corner, his modest worth may have influenced but small circle. His influence and example, however. will inspire those with whom he came in contact to radiate to other circles and the total may be impressive. At any rate he did his duty as he saw it, carried his burdens cheerfully with his frail physique, loved his fellow men, and gently to sleep with the look of peace upon his face that is the reward of the just The deacon probably did not leave lot of money, but he was a pretty wealthy man in the esteem felt for him by his fellow men and in his own simple, steadfast faith.

IN the absence OF poles. Two pieces
of scantling FIVE feet long are nailed
six inches from the ground so as to
make cross, then the vines are
stacked around the poles. In starting
the stack a few forkfuls are laid
across the scantlings and the shocks
built up by successive layers of vines,
the pods being kept to the center,
slopi. vines so as to shed the rain.
When the stack is finished a cap of
grass and vines is placed on top of the
pole. The hay should be allowed to
stay in the stack until the nuts be-
come dry and firm, which usually
takes about month, then baled in the
usual way.
The whole peanut plant makes an
unusually rich and palatable hay, con-
tanning 1874 per cent protein, 40 per
cent carbohydrates and q per cent
fat. Whole peanut hay analyses high
er than alfalfa, therefore 1t is an ex-
cellent feed for work horses, mules,
beef and dairy cattle.
Where peanuts are planted for hogs,
the vines can be cut with a mower
and allowed to cure in stacks.
