and I need barnyard STUFF nightly"

"Scraped up and ready to load,
guess it's worth 80 cents a two horse
wagon load. It could be better be-
cause it's been exposed to the rain
and lost lots of strength, but it is bet
ter than nothing"
''How are you going to use it?" asked
Tom.

FIFTY loads isn't much for four

Tell you what" said Mr.. Ralsto1;

acre at 8 cents an hour and the use of

n Joe went ahead with his prep
arations on his own acre, the
same land that he had used the
" last year. He had sowed it
down in rye as a winter cover crop
and to prevent washing of the soil and
at the same time to afford q winter
pasture for the stock and pigs. The
rye was to be turned under when the
ground was first broken in the spring.
Mr.. Weston had planted six acres in
oats. but proposed to let them mature
after having been grazed by the stock
during the winter.
In his spare time Joe now hauled
leaves: but, since there was stock on
the place. the leaves were not applied
direct to the land. The cows and
horses were bedded in the leaves, and
covered pen was built back Of the
barn into which the leaves and bed
ding from the stalls were thrown each
day.
Amt no use in buildin' fertilize
pen, Joe," objected his father when the
subject was first mentioned. Just
pitch It out there under the caves, an
the rain and water II help rot it."
Yes, and over half it's value will be
running off in waste water toward the
creek" said Joe. The water will take
most Of the ammonia and heap of the
nitrogen and phosphoric acid and such
out Of it. No; les keep it dry until we
are ready to apply it; then it will not
lose its strength. There's a govern
ment bulletin on the care of barnyard

so much to learn an so much to read.
An you know readin' is mighty hard
work for me. l amt had as much
schoolin' in all my life as you've had
already"
Joe felt sorry for his father, who
seemed so keenly conscious of late re-
garding his own limitations. Joe
sought to make him feel easier.
"Well. it isn't strange you haven't
read it-there are 50 many Of them

to show the effects Of good treatment

Ready now!" warned Uncle Jehr as
he hit the final lick. and the tree ma
1esdcally swayed and fell with thun-
derous crash. A second before it hit
earth Rube turned the dogs loose, and
they were in the treetop almost before
It had settled from the rebound.
Men and boys ran forward, holding
their lights aloft, and puzzled, too, for
there was the livelest scrap going on

The coon lay fat on his back and
fought with all four feet and his teeth.
He was holding off the dogs and In.

they were on him until the dogs got
down to team work and would rush
him two at a time on different sides.

Before a statue is erected in Russia
it Is customary to submit the design for

In many cases wooden model Of the
proposed statue is erected in the exact
spot where the complete statue is to
stand. II the majority do not approve
of the design it Is withdrawn and an
other Is substituted. This custom has
resulted in Russia having probably the
best memorial groups and statues Of
