Fincedly.

Salina futtered. She half fam

slow-going. methodical man. and the
time was not ripe for matrimony yet,

THAT isn't difficult" smiled Salina,
who would buy it?'

VIII you make that promiseT"
"Why, certainly" agreed Salina.
"And if anyone asks you your price,

"Oh, Bernard !" cried Salina In
amaze. Then in CONSERVATION she
added: 81 mean, Mr.. Royd; yes, yes,

Three businesslike men announcing
themselves as commissioners of the

not worth much as a farm. You have
your price?"
'Ten thousand dollars" replied
Salina sturdily.
The gentleman stared. Then their
spokesman smiled.
Il see you have been advised" he
observed. Every well, we Will con-
slider the offer"
A few days later Salina received
letter from the Office of the develop
ment company. The ten thousand dol
lars was ready for her. In the course
of a week the money was paid. She
marveled, but held her counsel, re-
turned TO Riverton, placed the money
in bank and went TO stay with lady
friend until she could decide what to
do with all this suddenly acquired
wealth. She wondered why Mr.. Royd
had not come TO see her. She knew,

He made an explanation. The COM

THE. AMATEUR GARDENER WASHINGTON FOR THOSE X

Tho advantage of deep spading and thorough advance preparation of the soil becomes apparent in the carrot bed, says today's garden lesson supp piled by the National Emergency Food Garden Commission, of Washington.
 The carrot root, which is the part eaten tries to grow straight down into the soil. If 1t meets a stiff. packed subsoil a few inches down it cannot penetrate it, and the root will either split or become otherwise mis- shapen and gnarled. Soil that has been packed, however, enables the carrot to grow shapely.
 The carrot Is an early crop and easily grown after it gets started. But the carrot seeds are small and the young plants are weak: so the seeds should not be planted deeply, a half inch being enough. It Is nec- essary to keep dirt crust from forming over the seeds after they are planted. so 1t becomes desirable to mix a few radish seeds in with the carrot seed. The radishes grow quick ly and not only mark the rows SC

 One ounce of carrot seed is enough to SOW 100 feet of row. They should be sown rather thickly together, and after the plants come up thinning by pdlling out plants is not necessary unless they are crowding each other. Small carrots have better flavor than
 large ones so that they can grow six or seven. to the foot in the row without injury. Make the rows one foot apart.
 The carrot is slow grower, matur- ing in eight or ten weeks after plant ing. A continuous supply of them can l be guaranteed by making new plant fngs every weeks or late as August 1 15. although in hot. dry weather they must be watered
