WHY TIRES GET HOT

1t is mistake to think that auto
mobile tires are hot after long, fast
run because of their friction on the
road. The heat is really due to fric-
tion inside the tires themselves, due
to the fact that the various layers
of which they are composed do not
act uniformly as the tires are defect
ed by the road.

FLOWER OF ROMANCE
By KATE CONWAY.

"Oh, I've known Tuck Crawford ever since he was knee high to a grass hopper said Aunt Bethiah placidly. He won't hurt anybody, and I've nev- CT been afraid of him. He's got plenty of money hid down the well, I sup pose, or under the mounting stone."
 Then it's pity he doesn't dig up some of 1t for Berenice," said Laura passionately. "She has had to stay at home and take care of her father and all those children, five of them, ever since her mother died, and they're well-not poor-I suppose, but always just getting by-don't you know what I mean, auntie? There isn't enough money for this and that, and Bernice can't even think of getting married for years and years"
 Has she got anyone picked out yet?" asked Aunt Bethiah.
 Has she? Why, don't you know she's engaged to our Rob?"
 Mrs Fennimore dropped her cro. eheting and looked over her eye glasses at her youngest niece. The hope of the Fennimore family was Rob.
 "I suppose said Mrs. Fennimore, with just a bit of sigh, they were sweethearts when they were children. Rob's the kind of boy to keep the flower of romance blooming for years. Is she nice, Laura?'
 Nice? She's just darling, auntie. We'll ride over there this morning and you can see her. She's the winsomest girl you ever saw-just that, the win- somest."
 Willing to marry Rob?"
 "Oh, yes. tell you they've been en- gagged since his junior year, but she has a big idea of duty, and her fa- ther needs her. But if their Grandfa- ther Crawford would do the right thing they could afford to hire house keeper and let Berenice get married in peace"
 Always was too selfish to give a crow a crumb," Aunt Bethiah agreed. Well see what can be done. never was afraid of Tuck Crawford and ain't today. He needs boss fear fully"
 About ten they drove over to the Junior Crawford home.
 Real slightly old place, ain't it?' said Mrs Fennimore when they came away, land I do like Berenice. Shes sweet as tea rose, I declare she is with those pig brown eyes and that fair. curly hair. Bless her heart! Just drive over to her grandfather place, will you Laura?" Back on an old side road 1t was, little gray house in tangle of treei and grape vines, with big we'll sweel at the back and the barn across thu road.

SOILS AND SOIL FERTILITY
No. 7. Farm Manure.

By De F. Hungerford, Assistant Agro-
 nomist. University of Arkansas.
 Farm manure is, without question, the best fertilizer the farmer can put on his land. The oldest experiment station in the world. located at Roth. amstead, England, has conducted ex- periments for many years comparing manure with various amounts of com mercial fertilizers In one of these tests the plot receiving no manure or fertilizer of any kind yielded 13.1 bushel of wheat as an average for fifty years. The plot receiving 14 tons Of manure per acre each year yielded 36.6 bushels as the fifty year average. Another plot was treated each year with fertilizer costing s15.25 per acre and produced 23.9 bushels of wheat. The only plot in the test which produced as much wheat as the manured plot was one which received each year fertilizer at cost of $29.S5 per acre. This plot averaged 369 bushels of wheat per acre for fifty years. Countless other experiments have shown that manure is a valuable fertilizer and should be preserved and used accordingly.
 The reasons for the effectiveness of manure as a fertilizer are apparent when It's composition and action in the soil is understood. Plants require certain substances to make them grow just as animals must have food. The most important of these substances are nitrogen. phosphoric acid and pot ash. These are commonly called plant foods because they serve as food for plants. A ton of average manure contains 10 pounds of nitrogen, five pounds of phosphoric acid and 10 pounds of potash. These quantities may seem to be insignificant, but plants do not require very large amounts although little of each Is absolutely essential If these mater ials are bought in commercial fertiliz- CTS they are expensive. At the cus- tomary price for fertilizers the con. stituents in one ton of manure would cost $286. The cost would be very much moro at the prices now pre-

 The value of manure varies some, what with the feed the animals re- ceive The richer the feed is in pro tein the more nitrogen is contained in the manure. For this reason the ma nure from animals fed on cotton seed meal, bran. alfalfa hay or other rich feeds Is especially valuable. Nearly all of the nitrogen fed to fattening animal Is returned in the manure.
 Manure Is valuable for other req sons besides the plant food 1t con- tains. In every ton of average manure there is about 500 pounds of organic matter This has very beneficial in- iuence on the physical condition of the soll IL makes heavy clay soils more mellow and open, and 1t binds the sand grains together In sandy soil making a frmer seed bed and en- abling the soil to store up more water against a time of drought. One of the greatest needs of the soils of this state is larger supply of organic mat ter. The organic matter supplied In manure also furnishes food for the bacteria which are essential to the best growth of crops Some of the bacteria fed by the manure are able to take nitrogen from the air and make 1t available for crops in much the same manner as Go the bacteria which live on the roots of legumes. Others cause fermentation of the or ganic matter to take place with the liberation of carbonic acid which ren, ders the mineral matter of the soil available.
 Since manure Is valuable in so many ways, great care should be exer- cised to prevent unnecessary losses. Some of the valuable ingredients are soluble and others are lost by expos. ure to the air Leaching should there, fore be avoided as much as possible. The manure Is frequently thrown out of window In the stable and allowed to lie under the caves until most of the plant food is leached out. The dark brown liquid often seen about barnyards is rich in the elements needed by crops. 1T the manure IS all lowed to lie in loose open heaps where the air can circulate freely through it the insoluble nitrogen changes to soluble forms and is then lost by teaching. In this way manure left out in the open subject to alter nate wetting and drying, quickly loses much of It's value.
 In order to reduce losses to a mini mum manure should be spread on the land as soon as produced. Then the rains will wash the soluble part into the soil where it Is needed. If 1t is impractical to spread the manure every day losses can be kept down py storing in large moist. compact heaps unSer roof A basin-shaped cement floor under the heap will prevent most of the teaching. A very economical method of storing manure Is to keep the stock in deep stalls and allow 1t to accumulate under their feet. The animals can be kept dry with bedding.

 How be you, Tuck?" called Aunt Bethiah, happily, coming up the path toward him, her full skirts brushing off leaves and cobwebs from the dry weeds So sweet-faced and blooming she looked that Laura stared at her. And so did Tucker Crawford. Not such vision had he seen in many years in his front yard. He wiped his hand off on his coat and gave it to her bit shakily.
 Why Bethiah, how be ye?" he ex. claimed Look just as young and pert as ever. When did you get over here?"

 Well, well. How pert you do look. ? His faded blue eyes fingered on her cheerful face hungrily. Want place as housekeeper, Bethiah? I've been looking round for good, hard-work' Ing woman"
 No, thanks" she laughed.

 Like enough it is," murmured Mir Crawford, stroking his little pointed beard. '1 ain't looked to see. How pert you look, Rethiah! I cant gel over it.''
 After they had said good-by and driven down the road, the old man stood watching them, leaning his arms on the little rusty iron gate. His face wore a peaceful, satisfied smile. He had promised all Bethiah had asked wedding clothes, old silver and linen even the housekeeper.
 Let 'em have 1t and enjoy them selves,' he said Take about two hundred to start with, she said. Ant got eight thousand in the bank al Willimantic and four over in Putnam Guess we can give Berenice wed ding like her grandmother had. Wa tering the flower of romance?'
