And in the twinkling OF an eye
Santa was gone. Dear old Santa!
The twins went back to bed and
next thing they knew, they were
awakened by some one saying,
Merry Christmas"
The twins and Bobby hurried into
their clothes and rushed down to
see what Santa had brought them.
And when Bobby came to his stock.
ing, ii was just as Santa had told
the twins.
When Bobby read what the card
said, he cried very, very hard and
said, "Oh, wish I'd believed in
Santa Claus before. know there's
a Santa now"
The twins told their parents all
about Santa's visit: and so in the
afternoon, the little family started
TO go to grandma's.
When they got there, grandma
rushed out TO meet them and said,
"Oh, Bobby, Santa Claus came here

woolly bathrobes and peeked out
of the window. 1t was showing.
Everything was white.
The twins room opened out on
an upstairs porch, which was all
coevred with snow. But what were
those things that we're moving
around so strangely? They raised
the window and stepped out on the
roof. My, it was cold! But what
did the twins care? They walked
over to the white moving things.
and oh, there were ten beautiful
reindeer!
They. were petting the lovely
creatures, when they heard voice
say, "Hullo, there, Riddles" and
there was Santa Claus coming out
of the big red chimney. Santa
waved his hand at them and smiled
Then he came out of the chimney
and started toward them. The
twins gave a little squeal of delight
Santa picked them up in his arms
and said. Here's two little twin

THAT is Santa Claus's signal for
all children to 60 to bed so that he
can begin his journey. So, kiss
me goodnight and run along to
bed" said mother.
So the twins and Bobby kissed
their mother and started to 60 to
bed.
Just as Bobby got on the first
step, he said, Jaw, say. mother, do
you believe in Santa CLAUSE"
why, Bobby" his mother re-
piled. "of course; don't you?"

stocking, for Santa Claus doesn't
bring things to people that do not
believe in him"
With that the argument ended
and the children went to bed.
1t just seemed as il the twins
just wouldn't go to sleep that night.
They heard the church bell strike
nine and then ten, and then-well
at last they fell asleep.
1t hadn't seemed more than ten
minutes since the twins had gone
to sleep, when Ellen woke up.
What was that terrible noise
downstairs? Was it Santa Claus
Should she 60 down? No. Ellen
decided that if it was Santa Claus
she wouldn't go down. Ellen woke
Helen and told her.
Just then the church clock began
to strike. One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
eleven, twelve! Midnight! That
was the time when Santa Claus
came. The twins slipped on their
bedroom slippers and their warm

twins But brother Bobby, he
doesn't"
"Oh, no. is that right" said San
ia. well, We'll make Bobby be-
licve in me. Now, listen real close.
and Santa will tell you his story
because you have been such good
twins"
So Santa whispered, when Bob
by gets up in the morning, all he
will find in his stocking will be a
card, which says For the boy that
doesn't believe IN Santa Claus
Then Bobby will believe in me and
will wish he had believed in me
sooner Now, here comes your
part. You must tell your papa and
mamma all about seeing me and
tell them | want TO take them and
Bobby down to arandma's and there
he will find that | have left him
some things. I'm going there now.

as green manure In orchards, and In
commercial paintings 1t has been
thought well Of by the farmers who
have used 1t. In western Oregon and
western Washington 1t can be grown
successfully as a seed crop, the yields
averaging from II to Is bushels an
acre. 1t has not been sufficiently test
ed In the Southern states to determine
definitely its value In localities where
common vetch Is now being grown, but
as It requires conditions similar to the
common varieties, 1t seems probable
that 1t may serve an excellent purpose
in this region as we'll as in the western
United States. It is of high feeding
value and makes good hay in pas
turage.
Under average conditions purple
vetch will stand a winter temperature
Of 10 degrees above zero with little
or no injury. Where the temperatures
are not likely to fall below this mark
II should be sown In the fall. With
colder winter conditions, spring seed
ing is essential. In localities where
common vetch has been grown success
fully and the necessary bacteria have
been established In the soil, II is noe
necessary to inoculate for purple
iyetch.
Purple vetch should be drilled In
close drills or broadcasted at the rate
Of 60 to so pounds of seed per acre
Harvesting can be done best with HI
common mower having a swather at
tachment. II should be cut for hay
during the period from fun bloom to
the formation of the first pods. The
yields average about 2M tons Of hay
per acre. When harvesting for seed
the crop should be cut soon after the
lower pods are ripe. at which time
the upper pods will be mature and the
plant win be carrying a maximum
quantity of seed. Purple vetch is less
exacting as to the time of cutting than
common vetch. as the seed skaters
less readily. Thrashing may be done
with an ordinary thrashing machine.
