Where 1t is proposed to plant sod

Land already in corn which is badly

even at the risk of slightly root pruning

as long as the corn can be cultivated,
and as soon as the crop is removed

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

II was high iron fence covered
with honeysuckle-th one between the
Harringtons and the Ncals-and with
every year's growth Of the vine and as
every twig lnterlaced to thicken the
density of the green wall, the barrier
of hate between the two families had
likewise grown In vast proportions.
The uncovered fence itself com
menorated the beginning of the feud,
for, us is usually the case, II had start-
ed with disagreement about tile
boundary line.
To arbltrate quarrel Is not TO set
tie 1t. Neither side winning, there is
no one to forgive. So the Harrlngtons
and the Meals nursed their hate into
the second generation. and stlll II
grew.
Violet Harrington, the last and only
one at home now, had always hated
DIR. Wilbur Neal bitterly. She hated
him chiefly because he had always
seemed politely and supremacy lndif,
ferent to her. He was almost the only
man In town who had not sooner or
later lost his heart 10 her Violet had
always been the envy OF every girl In
Coburg, because SHE was the prettiest
and most populaf Naturally .aceus-
toned to homage she resented the fact
that VIII Neal paid so MUCH attentsstt
to his books to the exclusion aIlnose,of
everything else.
Now she was twenty-eight and he
was thirty. and neither of them was
married. Knowing that she could have
anybody, she had taken nobody. Now
She was alone in the great house.
1t was June and wonderful moon
light night Violet sat out under the
maple tree in the yard near the fence,
in soft white dress, stroking Dick,
her Persian cat, and whispering little
secrets in his ear.
Its lovely night, Dickie. Do you
smell the rosesf Listenl That soft
little murmur Is the voices Of the love
fairies Do you hear? They slide down
on the moonbeams TO the roses on
June nights and plan whom they shall,
enslave next. Then they mix a sort of
magic out of dew and fragrance and
fly with 1t to the chosen ones and
anoint them. After that it's NIL over,
Dick. That love potion never fails.
II suppose you're wondering, Dick.
why they never chose me. I've often
wondered, too. wonder why they
never did. There are so many splen-
did, wonderful men. wonder why
never loved any of them. I'm getting
awfully old, Dick Some day I'll be
walking with stick. Oh, Dick, wish
could love somebody. / don't want
to be old and lonely and ugly"
Her head went down on the soft coat
and tear dropped.
Suddenly there was chirping and
futtering in the vines, and Dick inn
mediately jumped down to investigate.
A fiedgling had dropped out of its nest
and got tangled in The leaves.
Violet jumped out Of the swing and
hurried after him. But by the time
she reached the vine-covered fence the
cat had worked his sinuous way into
it's very heart. STOPPING she reached
into the black shadows for her pet
But he was gone.

| and liberal use of barnyard manure
or other fertilizer is recommended, and
vigorous stand may be produced
sometimes in spite of the wireworms
by such treatment. Wherever practi-
cable the interposing of crops not Sc
verely attacked by wireworms, such as
field peas or hucllwheat, between sod
and corn tends materially to reduce
the number of wireworms in the soil.
Some li''ds of wireworms live only
in badly drained land and for this rea-
son thorough tile draining of such
fields is often very beneficial, especial
ly where the general condition of the
fields is improved by proper applica-
tions of lime and thorough cultiva.
ton.
In the Northwest and northern mid
die West the dry-land wireworm, pic
tured above, is very injurious. The
following methods have been found to
be valuable in the elimination of this
pest: az Disk or drag harrow the
summer fallow as early as possible in
the spring in order to produce dust
mulch and thereby conserve the accu-
INFLATED winter moisture; i2) CON
tinue the disking as often as is neces-
sary In order to maintain the mulch
and keep down the weeds; (3) plow
the summer fallow in July or early in
August and Immediately drag; az
pillow the stubble as soon as the crop
is removed.
Avoid Fresh Sod.
Do not plant grain, and especially
corn, on freshly broken sod land If
this can be avoided. To do so exposes
1t to almost certain injury by wire
worms, cutworms, and white grubs.
Plant such land first to soy beans,
cowpeas, clover, alfalfa, or buckwheat,
afterwards rotating to grain. The
growing of any one kind of grain on
the same land continuously is sure to
result in damage from insect pests,
and is bad agricultural practice. Adopt
"a good system Of crop rotation suit
able to your particular region. If you
do not know the most approved sys-
TEN of rotation for your locality, ask
your county agricultural agent or state
experiment station for advice.
