able for hay because they grow
into a tangled mass which is very
difficult to NOW and cure. Aside
from green manure purposes,
they are only fit for pasturage by
hogs or cattle. The corn and
beans may be gathered by hogs.
When the corn natures the beans
will still be green. The usual
method is to gather the corn and
turn stock into the field in the fall.
The cattle will eat not only the
dry pods and seed, but also the
dry leaves which have fallen to
the ground. The seed must be
gathered by hand.

PLAN TING

1t should be planted with corn
as support, and the best soil
preparation for the two crops is
the same. The habit of rapid
vining prevents a long season of
cultivation. The soil should be
thoroly prepared before the seed
are planted. Various methods of
planting are used. The most
popular one seems to be planting
one row of beans to every two
rows of corn. The corn is
planted as usual, leaving every
third row, where the beans are
planted by hand in hills two feet
apart with two seed in a hill.
Twelve pounds of seed is suffi-
Gent to plant an acre. Early
May is the best date. The two
crops are cultivated alike, until
the vines obstruct the rows.

EASY TO TELL POISON IVY
dangerous Plant Has a ~charaeteris-
tic That is by No Means Hard
to Mistake.

Someone has said that II is hard to
distinguish between poison ivy and
Virginia creeper.
1t is the easiest thing in the world
to do this. Poison ivy has a three
parted leaf, Ampelopsis or Virginia
creeper a five-parted leaf. The latter
Is of rampant climbing habit.
The ivy seldom grows to a greater
height than three feet. 1t may v
run an old stump, or a heap of stones.
and have the appearance of being a
! but a close examination will
show you that it does not really climb.
1t generally makes a bushy growth,
sending up a mass of slender stems
from its spreading roots, and covering
a considerable amount of space.
If n studies the structure of the
peculiarities of the two plants, it will
be impossible to mistake one for the
other.
Some persons complain that they

1t cannot be killed by simply now
Ing 1t. But If, after moving it, the
ground in which it grows is sprinkled
with kerosene and burned over it is
not a difficult thing to kill. All the

II some of them send up sprouts, cut
these off close to the ground, and pour
kerosene over the stub and about it

ODD PLACES TO HIDE CASH
Woman Concealed Savings on Her
Mothers Grave-safety Deposit
In Cannon.

The woman who, as just revealed in
the law courts, hid her savings on her
mothers grave in Forest Hill cemetery
probably hit upon a unique cache. But
there is no saving. The person who
mistrusts savings banks generally
looks around for the most unlikely
spot in which to deposit wealth, and
more than n may hit on the same
Idea.
Old cannon, for instance, seem to
form favorable repositories. Quite a
quantity of jewelry was found some
while ago in a solitary gun which
stands in the fort at Shoreham, and
about the same time a bag containing
20 sovereigns was discovered in an
old annon in Peel park, Bradford.

at Liverpool also some inquisitive
youngsters once brought forth a SOL
