her head and replied: I'm a woman.

THE hell We dont!" The boy
paused. then added scornfully. MY

she don't straddle no hoss."
After that administration of rebuke
he deigned once more to recognize
the missionary's insistent queries,
though he did so with a laconic tmpa-
thence.

boy started disgustedly away. but
paused in passing to jerk his head

The travellers raised their eyes and
saw second figure standing with
hands on hips staring at them from
the distance. 1t was the slovenly fig
ure of a woman, clad in a colorless
and shapeless skirt and an equally
shapeless Jacket, which hung INDEBTED
about her thick waist As she came
slowly forward the girl began to take
in other details. The woman was
barefooted and walked with a sham
bling gait which made Juanita think
of bears pacing their barred inclos-
ures in a ZOO. Her face was hard and
unsmiling. and the wrinkles about her
eyes were those of anxious and lean
years, but the eyes themselves were
not unkind. Her lips were tight
clamped on the stem of clay pipe.

At sight of its desolation the girls
heart sank. A square howell. window

up q wretched lean-to that sagged
drunkenly against its end. The open
door was merely q patch of greater
darkness in the gray picture. Behind
1t doomed the mountain like q crouch
ing Colossus.
At first she thought 1t an abandoned
shack. but as they drew near the stile
q dark object lazily rose. resolving It.
self into q small boy of perhaps
eleven. He had been sitting hunched
up there at gaze with his hands
clasped around his thin knees.
As he came to his feet he revealed
a thin stature swallowed up in a hick.
| DRY shirt and an overample pair Of
butternut trousers that had evidently
come down in honorable heritage from
elder brethren. His small face wore
sharp. prematurely old expression
as he stood staring up at the new arri-
walls and hitching at the single gal
lus" which supported the family
brooches.
Airy one O. ye folks got a chaw O

SAVE FERTILIZER ELEMENTS.

Ingredients Existing In the Soil
Should Be Utilized and Developed.
In the unusual conditions existing in
the fertilizer trade, says statement
just Issued by Hhc secretary OF agricul-
tHrc, it is important that all fertilizng
materials on the farm. especially those
containing potash, should be conserv-
ed. The fertilizer Ingredients already
existing in the soil should be utilized
and developed to the fullest extent.
\ great deal can be accomplished in
this direction by deep blowing, con-
slant cultivation and thorough tillage,
There should he Il proper system of
rotation. Especially where one crop
has been grown for several years Il
different one should be planted this
year tsseen nsanures and cover crops
should BE- used rs much as possible in
their proper rotation.
OF the organic substances manure,
both solid ana liquid Is the most i'm
portant ana should he utilized when
ever possible. All material of an or
ganic nature. such as leaves and bed
ding IL various sorts. should he com
posted and the compost applied to the
soil Special attention should be given
also to the conservation or wool
ashes. Depending on the character of
the wood, they contain potash in guam
titles varying ordinarily from 3 to 10
per cent. All tree trimmings. brush
cuttings, etc, should be burned ana
Tie ashes derived thcrefrom utilized.
Tbs application of lime to many
soils is Of undonhtel benefit. Though
ihe availability nf the fefti,lg!ag elc-
men.s in ille soil may not be greatly
increased BY its use. the resulting i'm
proycment in physical ana bacterial
conditions may increase considerably
the productyeness of the soil.

1t has outgrown its mission. Slowly
