Kitchener Wheat.

Some years ago Lord Kitchener'l
name was given to a kind Of wheat
that was introduced by him into South
Africa. The story is told in the Daily
London Chronicle. While Kitchener
was in India some of the acquaint.
ances he had made in South Africa
wrote to him that their wheat was suf.
ferlng from rust and that they had
heard that Tibetan wheat was immune
from this disease. Could he send
them a few bushels? He sent the
wheat and that was an end of the
matter, as he thought.
Some years afterward he was Of
Nairobi, and saw a few acres of
growing wheat, named Kitchener
wheat. He learned that the seed had
come from q part Of South Africa,
1000 miles distant-the offspring OF
the marriage Of his Tibetan wheat
with native variety. 49," said LORD
Kitchener, "just as my grandfather.
Doctor Chevallier, gave his name to O
famous barley, mine is now attached
TO q special kind of wheat"

Sweets In the Field.

The change Of food that one makes
when first going into the woods is apt
TO produce digestive disturbances, but
even when the. system has recovered
from these there is almost sure to be
q sense of something missing in the
diet. Sugar and acid are both lacking
In most cases, and are missed. Sugar
Is a fuel for the human engine, and
the wise camper will take 1t along in
the form of sweet chocolate, jelly pow
der, or some such form. Our troops
In Cuba in '9S clamored for candy.
Davis tells of one husky doughboy
who'd "sell his soul for a chocolate
caramel" The recent punitive expe-
dition into Mexico has developed the
same clamor for sweets, much to the
surprise of the daily press.
In making up grub lists have plenty
of coffee. The allowance at home
may be only one cup day, but In the
woods half a dozen may be consumed.

Cat Calls Help for Kitten.

John McNulty, fireman in the fed
eral building, was annoyed by the
meowing of q cat the other evening.
The next morning he found Mime
haha, the post Office pet, clawing at
the cracks Of the door Of one of the
big vaults in the basement. McNulty
hastily opened the door, and was
startled to see q kitten jump from
within.
1t was one of Minnehaha's kittens,
which wandered into the vault just
before it was closed, and the mother
cat traced it to the vault door and
called for help.-Wilmington Del.)

The END OF NOWHERE
BY SUSAN {. cLAGETT.

He trudged YEARLY along, mite of
a youngster, with a mongrel cur
watching him with adoring eyes and
following closely at his heels. Tom
was too miserable to think of any
thing but his desire to get as far
away from everybody as he could.
He had not been treated fairly. His
father had told him he could keep the
dog-the one thing in all Toms uni
verse he wanted with his whole little
heart-then had changed his mind.
He gave no reason. Just said he
wouldn't have such a looking cur
about. That he must go, and Tom
decided he would go also.
He had walked miles and miles.
Tempted by the shade of big trees,
Tom had left the main thoroughfare
and wandered down q little-used
road that carried him farther and
farther away from the usual haunts
of men. Now he was very tired and
very hungry. With his arms about
the yellow cur, tears just glistening on
eyelashes that rested lightly against
berry-tainted cheeks, he slept the
sleep of exhaustion, half hidden in the
grass by the roadside close to the end
of nowhere.
A few yards farther on the road
ended in front of a house, log house
with q deep, screened porch and a
gay flower border at one side.
The place was lonely. Somebody's
summer camp and that somebody was
leaning modify against a tree whit
Ting. There was a whine. Before
him was a mongrel cur, paws hang
Ing, one ear cooked, the other limp.
He stopped, but the dog whisked
away from the kindly hand and sat
down farther away.
"Oh that's it," the man said. You
want me to go with. you? All right.
Lead and I will follow" And follow
be did until the dog stopped close by
something lying beside the road.
The man gave low whistle as he
'ooked down at the boy. Then he
gathered him into his arms and hur-
ried back to the house. AS he laid
him on a couch, Tom opened his eyes.
You told me you lived at the end
Of nowhere, Uncle Jack, and l came
GEAR not finding you," he murmured.
but l just had to find you, for I'm
In lots of trouble"
The voice trailed off as the tele-
phone rang. 1t had been ringing for
some time, but Jack Crowthers had
not heard it. When he took down the
receiver the voice at the other end
made him knit his brows.
When he put up the receiver he
turned to the sleeping child.

trouble, whatever has been mine,

ner as public thoroughfares, which
carry much greater traffic, in general
would be useless waste of money.
The first consideration is the loca.
ton of the roads and paths about the
farm The roads and paths are
part of the permanent farm plant.
Consequently they should be so To-
Gated as to best serve the purpose for
which they are intended, should fit in
with the general scheme Of the farm,
and at the same time should avoid as
much as possible places which would
require difficult and expensive con-
struction or maintenance. The main
consideration, however, must be to
secure the highest degree of efficiency
from the farm plant as a whole.
The earth road is the most common
type of farm road and will probably so
remain. fWhen properly crowned,
drained and maintained with the split
log drag or other similar device, the
earth road, on all but few excep-
tional soils or in few places imme'
diately around the farm lots and build
ings, can be made to answer the re-
ouirements fairly well. A little grad
ing will in general give the earth road
a crown sloping from the center to-
ward the side bitches at a rate OF
about one inch to the foot, and side
bitches Of sufficient size to carry away
the storm water can usually be con-
structed without difficulty. If the
ground is springy the side bitches may
be made deeper, or the ground water
may be carried away by tile drains.
The fundamental requirement of an
earth road is always good drainage.
This involves, first, the removal OF the
water which reaches the surface OF
the road from precipitation or other
wise: and second, in certain places the
removal of any ground water which
reaches the road from underground
seepage. Surface drainage is accom-
plished by securing a reasonably firm
crowned roadway and providing
bitches of sufficient size and with am
pie grade and frequent outlets. SUBJ
drainage to remove the water from
beneath the road surface or to pre-
vent it's passage into the roadbed is
usually accomplished most effectively
by so-called blind drains or by means
of properly located tile drains.

He threw himself into chair anu
did not move until he heard the pur-
ring of q car as it came slowly up the
lane.
The woman who entered moment
later did not look at him as she
crossed the room and knelt beside the

hands and laid them against her
cheeks, then she raised a whlte

"Yet you are here" His tone was

hand within his. "My dear, my deal"
she said, a little catch in her throat

''You need not, jack" she salo
soberly. II brought him with me, our
old pastor, who always understands
without being told, and the two girls
who were to have been my attendants.
They are little bewildered over the
idea of Il wedding without the proper
accessories, but such trities are OF

now and her words came haltingly
"You and know how little they count.

REPAIR BAD SPOTS IN ROADS
MudhoIes Should Be First Drained and
Soft Dirt Removed-Don't Be
Afraid of Dragging.

Don't try to fill a mudhole without
first draining out the water and re-
moving the soft mud. Don't try to fill
it with large stones, because if this is
done there will soon be two mudholes
instead Of one. Don't try to fill a
mudhole with sods or similar material
which absorb water readily.
On an earth or gravel road ruts are
best treated with the drag. Don't be
afraid Of dragging too often during
a rainy spell. If thin coat of sand
or gravel be spread over the road sur
face when it has been softened by
rain and then worked in by traffic
and a liberal use Of the drag, a poor
earth road can be much improved and
made to carry surprisingly heavy
traffic for short time.

MATERIALS FOR FARM, ROADS
Should Be Located With Reference to
Efficiency of Farm Plant
Good Drainage Needed.

The private roads on the farm differ
in general from the public roads only
in the amount and kind of traffic which
they carry. The fundamental princi-
pies involved in their construction and
maintenance are the same. But, as
the farm road is called on to bear far
less traffic, the ordinary methods of
construction and maintenance are SO
modified and the use of materials so
adapted as to meet the special re-
quirements and reduce the cost. To
build the farm roads in the same man.

Fresh Cows

1t is very important that farmers
recognize the Importance of having
COWS freshen at definite season,
and why? The COW that is kept
primarily for milk and butter pro-
duction should freshen in Septem-
Der when it is easier to keep milk
and butter, and when butter brings
a better price. Cows that are kept
primarily for raising calves for meat
and that are not MIXED should
freshen in March. Calves can run
with cows or pasture during the
summer and be ready for market
by November or December.

More About SiIOs

Do and don't. A farmer with
fewer than six head of cattle can
hardly afford to build even a $40
silo. A farmer with from four to
six cows and six to twelve young
stuff cannot afford to be without
one il enough neiehbors will join to-
eether to buy a good silaee cutter,
A small silaee cutter Is nuisance
and hard on a good mans religion.
Send to Director Extension Service,
University and U, S. Dept. of Aeri-
culture, Fayetteville or Little Rock,
for bulletins on homemade sios and
for information about cutters. Sor.
ehum makes fine silaee and gives
more tonnage than corn.
